Chapter 428 The Storm(2/2)
.
Luke saw the tight buttons and seams on Mrs. Fekchik's dress, and knew why she didn't stand up to greet her. He was afraid that if she moved a little more now, the dress would fall apart and the buttons would tear.
The human butler wore a tuxedo and politely welcomed Luke and Coconut to sit down and poured them red wine.
When all the guests arrived, Mrs. Fekchik picked up the red wine that was as bright as her lipstick and said: "Tonight is a wonderful night. Baron Sergei, who is famous for his wealth in the Holy Mountain, and Luke, a fashionable celebrity from Raging Waves City,
Sir, let's come together to Fekchik's house as a guest.
As the hostess of the Fekchik family, on behalf of my husband, I invite two distinguished guests to drink this glass of red wine together, which symbolizes the beginning of a wonderful dinner.
cheers!"
Mrs. Fekchik's toast was well-spoken.
Then he drank a full glass of red wine in one gulp, wiped the wine stains from his mouth with his sleeve, then reached out and grabbed a piece of steak and took a big bite.
When Luke saw Mrs. Fekchik being so generous, he drank a whole glass of wine in one gulp.
After Baron Sergey drank from his cup, Mrs. Fekchik chewed the meat and said: "Baron Sergey came to me today to discuss business and wanted to transfer the largest ironworks workshop in his hands to me.
Contains a mine and smelter.
Baron Sergei's ironworks workshop is a military workshop that produces armor weapons for the Barbarian Legion.
Mr. Luke, do you think this business can be done?"
Luke knew that Mrs. Fekchik was asking him for advice, but actually asking whether to buy it.
After all, Mrs. Fekchik did not have enough money to buy the entire iron production line.
The iron workshop that provides armor and weapons for the army is an iron rice bowl that guarantees harvests despite droughts and floods. Especially the Tedga Hills is at war with the empire, which consumes a lot of armor and weapons.
Sergey would never think of selling it unless absolutely necessary.
But since Sergey came to Mrs. Fikochik to discuss the sale of the ironworks workshop, it meant that the lifting of factory restrictions was stable. He was anxious to raise funds to build a factory, and found this old production system that was destined to be eliminated in the future.
The enemy took over.
Looking at the entire Holy Mountain, the only one who has the interest and ability to take over the business quickly and seamlessly is the very popular Mrs. Fekchik.
For Luke, business is no longer what it seems.
Baron Sergei needs money, then give him money.
Once the factory restrictions are lifted in Tedga Hills, given the factory's production capacity, products cannot be produced and sold in small Tedga Hills. These factory owners, who have tasted the benefits of industrialization for the first time, will inevitably seek a larger market.
Sergey's little assets are very valuable in an isolated economic circle like Tedga Hills, but in the larger market, he is just a small factory owner who cannot withstand the big storms.
Find any reason to punish him... If you don't want to die, just bow your head!
So Luke said to Mrs. Fekchik: "Buy it, of course you have to buy it! Isn't the iron workshop that provides armor and weapons for the barbarian army a chicken that lays golden eggs?"
I just don’t know why Baron Sergey wanted to sell such a good workshop. Did he encounter any difficulties and need a lot of money?"
Baron Sergey knew that if he took action on this iron workshop, he would definitely arouse suspicion from the other party, but he had already thought of an explanation.
Following Luke's words, Sergey sighed: "I have indeed encountered difficulties...
Last month, I ordered a batch of Siqi gold ore from overseas, which is an expensive alchemical material. I originally thought I could make a lot of money, but the cargo ship encountered a storm at sea. The ship sank and my goods were not available.
Already.
In order to buy this batch of ore, I borrowed a lot of money. Now the creditors are asking me to pay compensation, so I can only reluctantly transfer this most profitable workshop."
Mrs. Fekchik tried to squeeze out the sadness, but the joy that could not be concealed made her expression particularly layered.
"Ah! Poor Baron Sergei...Storms at sea are always unpredictable. But for you, this difficulty can definitely be overcome.
Since you urgently need money to pay off your debt, I will definitely help you.
I want your ironworks workshop, as well as the mines and smelting workshops!"
This was the first contact between Baron Sergei and Mrs. Fekchik, and it was true that as rumored, "spending money does not make money."
However, Baron Sergei's visit this time was not just about discussing the transfer of the ironworks workshop.
Sergey pretended to be grateful and said: "Thank you, Mrs. Fekchik, for your generous help. You are probably the only person in the entire Holy Mountain who can come up with this amount of money in a short time.
I will complete the transfer procedures of the iron workshop as soon as possible, and please prepare the money... My creditors are pushing me too hard.
In addition...I have some personal matters that I want to talk to Mr. Luke alone. Can Madam provide us with a room?"
Chapter completed!
