The Knight's Journey to the Empire

In the White Bear Territory, in a hall in Baron Soran’s mansion.

At this time, Baron Soran was sitting on the main seat, his eyes flickering with thought.

Obviously, he was thinking about something important!

Below him sat four other territorial officials: Wolfe, Adam, Doug Johnson and Gubellini.

They are gathering together at this time, preparing to discuss which form of cooperation to choose!

After a moment of silence, Business Officer Adam stood up and broke the silence: "My Lord Baron, after careful consideration, I think it is wiser to choose a cooperation method of profit sharing in the later stage!"

Then, he explained in detail: "First of all, we have the previous cooperation experience with Lord Curtis, so we know that choosing a cooperation method of profit sharing in the later stage is the way to maximize benefits!"

"Secondly, judging from the current two businesses, the market prospects and profitability of floral soap are obviously stronger than those of snowflake sea salt, so it is certain that the ability of floral soap to make money is definitely not low."

“Finally, as time goes by, the total annual profit gained through this cooperation model will soon exceed the amount of gold coins that can be obtained from a one-time buyout.”

Adam's point of view was recognized by Gubellini, so he echoed:

"My Lord Baron, I completely agree with Adam's opinion."

"Thanks to the stable income and large capital injection from the snowflake sea salt cooperative business, our territory is currently in good financial condition and there is no huge funding gap that needs to be filled urgently."

"But if we choose a one-time buyout, although we can get a large amount of gold coins immediately, there is a high probability that these gold coins will be idle and cannot be effectively used."

"On the contrary, if we choose a profit-sharing cooperation model, we can obtain sustainable profits and invest them in the development and construction of the territory to achieve greater benefits."

After listening to the opinions of the two people, Soran did not speak, nor did he express his agreement or disagreement.

And the people present were all colleagues who had worked together for a long time, and they were quite familiar with each other!

So when they saw Sauron's attitude, they knew that Sauron was not very satisfied with this suggestion!

Because if Sauron is satisfied, he will usually just clap and cheer!

"Lord Baron, can we refer to the cooperation method with Lord Count Katis in the snowflake sea salt business! While choosing the profit-sharing cooperation method in the later stage, let them give us a large amount of gold coins as purchase money or loan and give it to us!"

"As for the repayment in the future? It will be the same as the Snowflake Sea Salt business, using the profit sharing in the future to repay!" Seeing this, Wolfe also tentatively opened his mouth to express his opinion.

But when Sauron heard this, he just glanced at him and still did not express any opinion.

Obviously, he was not very satisfied with this suggestion!

For a moment, this made the several people who had expressed their opinions feel very confused, as if they were at a loss as to what was going on.

Could it be that Baron Soran intends to adopt a one-time buyout cooperation model?

But is this possible?

Besides, isn't this obvious?

Compared with the cooperation mode of participating in profit sharing in the later stage, the profit brought by a one-time buyout is obviously incomparable.

To do this is like picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons!

You know, Baron Soran is no fool!

On the contrary, he is very cunning!

So no one believed that he would choose a one-time buyout cooperation method!

"Doug Johnson, what is your opinion? You might as well say it out loud and let us think about it!" Seeing Doug Johnson with a thoughtful look on his face, Sauron asked directly.

Doug Johnson paused for a moment, then said: "My Lord Baron, I think we should choose a one-time buyout cooperation method!"

Soran raised his eyebrows and continued to ask: "What's the reason?"

Doug Johnson looked around and found that several people were also looking at him with puzzled expressions in their eyes!

So he took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and then said: "Because our strength is too weak! So weak that we can't even protect this huge wealth!"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Sauron!

Soran smiled and said, "Go on!"

"Yes!" Doug Johnson replied, and then continued:

"My dear colleagues, you all saw the madness shown by Sir Belgrade and his men when they heard the cost price of the floral soap!"

Everyone nodded in agreement!

"Then think about it, what could have caused a high-ranking knight and four brave knights to lose their composure like this? Was it the so-called amazing rate of return on profit?"

"Isn't it?" Adam asked weakly.

Doug Johnson immediately looked at Adam with appreciation!

Not bad! Brother Adam is really a good supporting actor!

"Of course not! Because what Sir Belgrade said is right. Before you make money, this so-called profit rate of return is just a somewhat useful data!"

"Why is that?" Adam asked again.

Soran looked at Adam with a frown on his face: Why are you so curious?

Doug Johnson over there is almost laughing out loud!

"I think they must have conducted a market survey! They must know that this floral soap has a broad market prospect and can definitely make a lot of money, really a lot of money!"

"So when they heard that the cost of floral soap was almost zero compared to the profit, they were a little too happy! And then such an inappropriate behavior occurred!"

"Then does this have anything to do with the mode of cooperation we choose?" This time the person asking the question was Gubellini!

"Yes, definitely!" Doug Johnson said in a firm tone.

"Imagine this, everyone. A huge fortune that can make a high-ranking knight and four brave knights lose their proper manners! How astonishing is this fortune!"

"It can even be said that this huge fortune does not belong to them! Instead, it belongs to His Royal Highness the Second Prince! But despite this, they still couldn't resist the temptation and their emotions were completely out of control!"

"So, if such a huge fortune falls into your hands, how would you feel? How would you deal with it? ... Or, how would you protect it?"

"Squeak!" After Doug Johnson said this, everyone reacted and took a breath!

Gentlemen love fortune, in a proper way!

But that's just a small fortune!

If it is a big fortune!

Hey!

I believe that many so-called "gentlemen" can turn into robbers in seconds!
