528 Capital and Power
Looking at Hu Suo with a commercial smile, Roland thought for a while and said, "I heard that you monopolize the business of fur, ore, etc."
"This is indeed the truth." Hu Suo nodded: "After all, the business system in this world is still a small workshop-style structure of feudal society. Even the royal family still uses territory and manors as output. They don't know what capital operation is. It's not a very simple thing to get them down?"
Vivian was confused when she heard this, because in her ears, Hu Suo said, "After all, this beep, still beep...", and she couldn't understand what it meant.
Roland smiled and said, "But is this too much? First, use high-priced acquisition methods to squeeze out other merchants. When the monopoly is done, the acquisition price will be greatly reduced. Now the quality of life of hunters, miners, etc. in Delbon City has dropped significantly. Many people work hard for a day, and the money they earn is barely enough to eat for two days, let alone support their families."
"This is a normal business behavior, and the lower purchase price means that the finished product is sold at a lower price," Hu Suo said.
Roland sneered and shook his head and said, "But I asked before, the finished product you made did not reduce the price, but instead increased the price by about 15%.
Hu Suo spread his hands: "Because we burned too much money in the early stage, the price increase will be cancelled after we recover the capital of the early stage operation."
"Hahaha!" Roland sneered: "Do you think I will believe it?"
"Why don't you believe it?" Hu Suo was shocked: "Business is about integrity. Boss Roland, you have to believe in the credibility of our treasure pot."
"What a joke, capital has come to this world, from head to toe, every pore is dripping with blood and dirty things flowing. You are capital now, the real capital." Roland stared straight into each other's eyes: "Don't tell me, you haven't learned this."
"I learned it in nature." Hu Suo said righteously: "So don't treat us as ordinary capitalists, we won't be so dirty. Our wish is to become the rich people of the people who everyone praises."
Roland chuckled, he took a cup, took a sip of fruit wine, and said, "I remember several years ago, when I was still in college, the capital used the media to say something very interesting... to put power in a cage!"
Hu Suo frowned.
"At that time, I was young and energetic and ignorant, and I thought this was correct!" Roland continued: "When I finished college and went out to work for another year, I realized how terrible it would be for capital to gain power. The only thing that can deal with capital is power. If the media's deception was really done and if power was really put in a cage, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Since Roland had said this, Hu Suo didn't pretend anymore.
"Boss Roland, are you planning to fight against us?" Hu Suo slowly covered the cup in front of him with a white porcelain lid: "But don't forget that we follow the rules, but we are protected by the system. No matter how strong you are, as long as you kill us a few more times, it will turn red, the consequences will be different. When you are wanted and a large number of players are coming over, do you think you can maintain your current status and level?"
Roland raised his eyebrows.
Hu Suo laughed, looked at Vivian, and then said, "At that time, you have no level and no power, will your woman still follow you? The queen is also following you because of your level and status."
He was trying to anger Roland, best to get angry that Roland would kill him.
A businessman with lv2 doesn't feel sorry for his experience of death.
But Roland is lv10, and if Red Name is killed once, it will be a lot of fun.
Roland did not do as he wished and was not angry at all. He stood up and looked at the other party condescendingly and said, "Indeed, if you kill you randomly, you will be famous. But I said just now that the only thing that can fight against capital is power, and I have power now."
"What do you mean by this, Roland!" Hu Suo jumped up, his face slightly gloomy and unstable.
Roland ignored him and took Vivian away.
Half an hour later, Roland appeared in the city lord's mansion and met little John.
The two sat down in the study, and little John looked better than before.
He looked at Roland, still angry and hated.
"You know about the monopoly of the cornucopia." Roland leaned against the chair with a cold expression: "They are here to see you too. Can you tell me what you have talked about?"
Little John sneered: "You are so kind of care. You want to know everything. Do you even know when I slept with that maid last night?"
Roland spread his hands: "I like to peek at other people's bad luck. It doesn't matter if you want to tell me, I will listen very seriously."
Little John is speechless.
Roland sneered gently. When he had no equal strength, whining at the strong would only bring shame to himself.
Roland was too clear about this. Before the Heavenly Dynasty became stronger, it was surrounded by the whole world and had no chance to talk back. He had seen too many such things.
"You can work with the Cornucopia, I have no objection." Roland continued: "But I will take the City Lord's wife and your sister to the manor for a long time. According to Holevin's law, a family can inherit the City Lord's position after all men die."
Little John's face changed drastically: "How could you... do this!"
"Besides, the city lord's wife is still young and beautiful, and she is only in her early thirty-five years old. With her body, it is no problem to have two or three children." Roland slowly pressed forward and said in a very coercive attitude: "If you have good luck, you can give birth to a little John."
Now, little John's face turned pale and his body was shaking slightly.
"Don't take my kindness to you for granted."
Regardless of the condition of little John at this time, Roland stood up, left the study, and asked Vivian to leave with the lord's wife and the lady to go to Roland's manor.
On the carriage, the lord's wife breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Vivian and said, "Thank you for letting us go. When little John met the people in the Cornucopia, I was worried that one day, a powerful magician would come to the city gate to bomb."
Vivian widened his eyes: "But you will live in Roland's manor for a long time. Are you not afraid that Roland will be tempted by you?"
"Ms. Andorana will not let Your Excellency Roland mess around." The city lord said indifferently: "Besides, even if that is the case, I will take advantage of it, okay?"
Well...it makes sense.
Roland then returned to the Magic Tower and summoned the heads of all the forces under the Magic Tower to come for a meeting.
Many people in the city knew about this. The nobles and business leaders from all walks of life were looking forward to it, waiting for the results to be released.
How would Roland fight back against the Cornucopia Chamber of Commerce, which was also organized by the Son of Gold.
Half an hour later, Sheriff Reed, with an elite infantryman, set out from the town hall and came to the Cornucopia Chamber of Commerce. In front of a large number of nobles and industry-related people around him, he read the following content:
'According to a one-month study and visit by the Delbon City Department, the Cornucopia Guild has now been determined to be an illegal guild, with opaque income, tax evasion, and maliciously disrupting the free economy market, which has had a great and bad impact on the commercial atmosphere of Delbon City. The Cornucopia Delbon City Branch is now sealed, and it is limited to three days later, all members of the guild will leave Delbon City and will not be allowed to conduct business activities in Delbon City for life, and must make up all taxes before leaving!'
Then Cage Reed asked someone to surround the entire building and then paste a white seal at the door.
People around him were talking.
Hu Suo almost fainted when he saw this scene.
He roared, "Roland, you mean little man!"
I thought Roland was just a warrior and would fight against his treasure trove like a fool.
But unexpectedly, the other party actually took advantage of the official power.
In this way, their calculations and reliance are gone.
After yelling, he looked at the crowd around him, a small group of people inside, who had contacted him and promised him that he would stand up to fight against Roland when necessary.
But these acquaintances who were mixed in the crowd looked away, and none of them were willing to look at him.
Things are not that simple.
Roland teleported to the King of Holevin, met Antis, and asked him to take himself to meet the old king.
The old king seemed even older at this time, and he met Roland in the side palace.
"Is Andonara okay now?" The old king narrowed his eyes slightly, looking very unenergetic: "The child Veronica missed her very much."
"I welcome Princess Veronica to visit Delbon." Roland replied without being humble or arrogant, without being anxious or angry.
The old king sighed: "Well, it seems that Andonara has no hope of coming back. So Roland, what is your purpose in coming to me?"
“Things about Cornucopia Guild.”
As soon as these words came out, Antis' expression became a little surprised.
The old king's expression remained unchanged, and he just talked: "It seems that your city of Delbon has also been affected."
"I guess all the counties in Holevin were affected by them."
Antis said: "Yes, they are very troublesome. They first use high-price strategies to squeeze out all their peers. After they monopolize, they will significantly lower the purchase price and sell at high prices."
"Why not take action against the Cornucopia guild?" Roland said: "You can collect their evil deeds in the market and drive them out of the city and territory with official documents."
The old king and Antis looked at each other, and both of them were shocked.
"Aren't they members of your Gold Sons?" Antis replied incredibly: "If we do this, you won't be beaten up by your Gold Sons?"
Roland smiled: "They just guessed that you would think so, so they were so arrogant. But in essence, we do not agree with their behavior, and soon they will be excluded by our Son of Gold. But before that, I need you to provide some written information, and your Majesty the King, you have to give a few speeches!"
