After a little resentment of Bud's mood, Scott continued: "Although the canal does not require new funds to join, I plan to rebuild the Great Yarmouth Harbor recently, so your funds can be added here! The old rule is that after the port is successfully built, you can get a certain profit commission from it."

When Bud heard this, he asked tentatively: "The right to operate..."

"Of course, all the rights to operate are to the Earl's Mansion." Scott ruthlessly shattered his fantasy: "Of course you can choose not to accept it."

"No, no, I accept it." Bud shook his head quickly when he heard this.

After all, I have just entered Norfolk at this moment. If I want to stay here for a long time and be invincible in my future life, then the prerequisite is that I must make friends with the great nobles in the Norfolk area.

"Very good, let's draft an agreement." As he spoke, Scott began to negotiate with Bard on specific issues in the construction of the port.

About three days later, large ships quickly drove from London to Norfolk, followed by a large-scale reconstruction of the Great Yarmouth Harbor in the Norfolk area. The general manager of the project was no one else, but Bud.

Because according to the agreement signed between Scott and Bard, the reconstruction of the Great Yarmouth Port will be fully responsible for Bad, and the construction funds for the port will be jointly borne by both parties, but the Earl's Mansion provides 30% of the money, and the remaining 70% will be handled by the Norfolk Chamber of Commerce led by Bad.

In return, Bad will enjoy this port for free for five consecutive years. In addition, Bad will also receive one-tenth of the total port revenue for five consecutive years. Of course, all operation rights belong to the Earl's Mansion.

However, when the agreement was signed, the others in the Chamber of Commerce firmly opposed the agreement. They believed that the investment and return of the agreement were completely inconsistent. Some even called this agreement Scott's conspiracy, believing that Scott wanted to use this method to drain the vitality of the Chamber of Commerce.

But Bud signed the agreement with Scott despite the opinions of his opponents.

The final result of the agreement was that Bard obtained the right to rebuild the Great Yarmouth Harbor, but accordingly, his men also became separated from people.

Look, during the reconstruction of the port, several merchants deliberately slacked off work, and even added inferior materials to their work. Seeing this, Bud has taught you a lesson for several days, but this phenomenon still happens from time to time. It can be said that Bud has been living a very uneasy these days.

It is rare that nothing abnormal happened today. Bud was about to lie down and rest for a while, when his assistant hurried in: "Mr. Bud, something is wrong. There are dozens of people standing outside the door, and they are clamoring to leave the Chamber of Commerce. What should you do about this situation?"

"Let them go wherever they want. I'm too lazy to worry about them anymore!" Bud said without raising his head when he heard this.

The assistant frowned when he heard this: "This... Mr. Bud, isn't you a little unconsidered in doing this? After all, they have been following you for a long time. Do you really want to hurt their hearts for this agreement?"

"What should I do according to your method?" Bud did not answer directly, but just threw the question to his assistant: "You suggested that I come here at the beginning, but why are you trying to persuade me now?"

The assistant said with an innocent look: "This..., I suggested that you come here at the beginning, but I didn't recommend that you accept such a harsh agreement! After all, when this port is completely built, most of the property of the Chamber of Commerce will be gone, so I feel that it is not worth it for you to do this!"

"It's worth it or not to see it later. Don't say it too early now! Anyway, I'm doing this for the development of the Chamber of Commerce!" As he said that, Bard turned over and said: "You have also seen the Earl of Norfolk himself. He speaks very skillfully. I dare to conclude that he is destined to have an extraordinary life in the future! Therefore, I invested a large scale in him at this moment!"

"After all, it is only now that he can help him solve his difficulties when he is in trouble. Then when he is rich and honored, we will definitely follow him and get the greatest reward. Therefore, when doing business, we should not only look at the present moment, but also look at the long-term!"

The assistant pondered for a while and asked, "Mr. Bud, do you think we can get a return on this huge investment?"

"When did I miss people?" Bud asked back: "You have been with me for a long time. When did you see me doing something that has suffered a lot?"

After lowering his head and being silent for a while, the assistant looked up and smiled and said, "Okay, I didn't see it! Then let's see what your investment is like this? Now I'll explain it to those businessmen for you! If they insist on leaving, let them go!"

Bud twisted his head and fell asleep again. "That's what it should be! During the time I came to Norfolk, I also looked carefully. Once the canals are fully built, this remote location will quickly become a superior location! So I am determined to stay here!"

"Yes." The assistant lowered his head and turned around and left.

In the Earl's Mansion, Leo and others also argued with Scott over the matter of the agreement.

Leo and Scott grew up together, so he seemed very rude when he spoke: "Earl, I feel that you are really owed to the exam. How can you just hand over the reconstruction of the Great Yarmouth Harbor to a person you don't trust? Even if you hand it over to Alphrede or Robertson! At least the two of them can be trusted!"

Scott explained with a smile: "The two of them are indeed trustworthy, but if you trust them too much, then this is not conducive to the development of business in Norfolk! After all, the Norfolk region is not the time to form a monopoly business."

"Uh, Earl, what are you saying? Why can't I understand what you say?" Leo was slightly at a loss as he listened to the fresh words that came out of Scott's mouth.

Scott's heart tightened and quickly yawned and turned the topic around: "By the way, how is Andrew's matter dealing with? Why is there no news about him recently?"

"Oh, this is really strange!" Leo frowned when he heard this: "I have no news about him recently!"

When Scott heard this, he slapped the table, and then his voice suddenly became louder: "This..., aren't you responsible for his work? You don't know where he went?"
