Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

"Brother, I miss you so much."

As soon as they met, Jefferson gave Lind a big hug, and Lind naturally accepted it with pleasure.

"It's been a long time, Mr. Jefferson. You are still as energetic as ever."

"My dear brother, you are not far behind. I heard that you have dug up a vein of magic stone. Congratulations. Don't forget to help me in the future."

Although both of them were very enthusiastic, they also got straight to the point in tacit understanding.

"Of course. I just made a new batch of goods recently. You can take a look at it first, Mr. Jefferson."

After introducing himself to everyone present, Lind took out several bottles of recovery potions.

After ensuring that the soldiers and reserve troops in the territory had enough recovery potions, Lind finally took out the potions to sell.

"This is!"

Jefferson's eyes sparkled.

The businessmen who followed Jefferson to Gray Collar were also impressed.

The quality of this batch of potions is very perfect, and the colors are almost all the same, which means that the efficacy of these recovery potions is very stable.

For those adventurers who live on the edge of a knife, a potion with stable effects is like a second life.

Although this type of recovery potion is only the most basic type, ordinary adventurers can only afford the cheapest recovery potion, and the sinking market is very large.

And it is conceivable that if white-collar workers can produce these alchemical potions like producing white sugar, how great an impact it will have on this part of the market.

"Five thousand gold shield coins, I want the exclusive right to purchase this kind of medicine."

Immediately, a smart businessman proposed to monopolize the industry. The pharmaceutical industry has huge profits, not to mention the monopoly. Although 5,000 gold shield coins seem painful, it is nothing compared to the subsequent profits.

Jefferson immediately cursed inwardly and began to regret bringing these businessmen to Gray Collar. He immediately interrupted and said, "Brother, you name a price. As long as it's not too much, I won't talk back!"

Before he knew it, Jefferson started to get close to Lind again, and soon other businessmen began to make offers one after another, each one crazier than the last.

Although Linde has not said anything yet, neither the retail price nor the production capacity, but with the endorsement of its good reputation in the sugar trade, many people want to replace Jefferson and become Linde's partner. After all, relying on sugar alone, Jefferson's status among the champagne aristocrats has improved a lot.

In fact, let alone monopolizing the recovery potion, there are plenty of businessmen willing to give money to Lind as long as they can avoid losing money.

Among the merchants and nobles who came this time was the son of the chief noble of Champagne, who came to see if there was any way to establish a relationship with Lind.

Lind raised his hand slightly, and the merchants in the delegation immediately quieted down.

"Everyone, although I understand your excitement, I want to make one thing clear in advance. I will not provide the recovery potion to a single company. In fact, I have already contacted the Shining Gold Merchant Alliance, and they have become one of the distributors of the recovery potion."

Everyone nodded. This low-priced recovery potion was no longer a secret among the Champagne nobles and merchants. Lind had already sold a batch through the Sparkling Gold Merchant Alliance.

People would act so crazy only because they knew how good the sales of this batch of medicines were.

"I believe everyone knows that our northern border has suffered a lot from war in recent years, so I took out the ancestral formula and improved the production process of the recovery potion. I will sell this batch of potions to you at a price lower than the market price, hoping to save more people in the northern border."

Regardless of whether it was useful or not, Linde first portrayed himself as a person who cared about the country and the people. Businessmen also cooperated and began to praise Linde's righteousness. Although they had never heard of the term "dealer", based on the composition of the word, businessmen could roughly guess what it meant.

"Great! What we in the North need is nobles like Viscount Lind!"

A young noble applauded Lind's speech. Lind looked and saw that it was Jim Evans, the representative sent by the Lord of Champagne.

This young man is the youngest son of Wesker Evans, the head of the Champagne nobility. He kept praising Lind for his concern for the country and the people, claiming that this was the true aristocratic style. Lind had no choice but to follow his words and start chatting.

Jim is totally out of tune with the group of old foxes around him. Linde's biggest feeling is that Jim is an angry young man, but to be honest, Linde doesn't dislike such a passionate young man. Maybe this person can be useful in the future, but for now Linde still wants to settle the business of the recovery potion first.

After several rounds of communication, Lind finally changed the subject back to business matters through Jim's mouth.

"But if you want to become the distributor of this batch of recovery potions, you must agree to some of my requirements."

"First, you are not allowed to destroy or erase the cork of the recovery potion or the mark of the North Wind Bear on the bottle."

"Second, you are not allowed to change the price of the recovery potion without permission. You are only allowed to sell it at the price I set. Of course, I will also ensure that you have enough benefits. If there are special circumstances, you can also write to me and explain them. I will consider it as appropriate."

"Third, the places where they are sold must indicate that these recovery potions are produced by us, Gray Collar. These potions must also be called Gray Collar potions."

The requests Lind made were very bold, as if he was afraid that others didn't know that these medicines were produced by him.

But in fact, if someone really wants to investigate, no matter how well Linde hides, the other party can easily find out, so it is better to just say directly that these medicines are produced by me. This way, at least I can gain some prestige. A passionate young man like Jim is the best example.

As for those who coveted the territory, Lind could only say that he would fight back when the enemy came and block when the water came. At worst, he would use the elves' banner to bully others and hint openly or covertly that this was the technology given to him by the elves, which could screen out a large number of people with less courage.

Originally these merchants had some opinions, but after Lind took out the contract, these merchants immediately changed their faces. Although no one is allowed to eat alone, the purchase price of the medicine is also outrageously low. In addition, the recovery medicine is a product that has no worries about sales. All the merchants reached a cooperation with the gray-collar workers in a pleasant atmosphere.

Jefferson naturally signed the contract. Looking at these crystal clear potions, Jefferson could feel that the day when he would become the head of the Champagne Nobles was not far away. However, Jefferson also keenly realized that the current head of the Champagne Nobles, Jim's old father Wesker, did not care much about this matter.

This time they even only sent their youngest son who was in charge of negotiating some scrap business. This made Jefferson feel a little strange. They were all old foxes and knew that something must be wrong when things were abnormal. However, Jefferson had not yet noticed what went wrong and could only take it one step at a time.

In fact, Jefferson had other worries in his heart. Gray Collar was getting bigger and bigger, and they had also discovered a magic stone vein. Many people had already set their sights on this place.

There are even rumors that Gray Collar is actually still under the control of the Lars family, and Lena Lars is going to use Gray Collar to join the War of Heirs.

This rumor was not groundless. After seeing the soldiers in the territory, Jefferson became more convinced that the rumor was true. After all, Lind started to upgrade his armaments as soon as he got the money, which was obviously planned.

Thinking of this, Jefferson approached Lind at the subsequent banquet and asked, "Brother Lind, I heard that you and Miss Lars are still engaged. This won't do. By then, won't it be clear whether the gray-collared man belongs to the Lars family or to you? When are you planning to get married?"

After the marriage, Lena will have nothing to do with the Lars family anymore. Even if there is still some connection, at least the gray-collar worker belongs to Lind in name.

But Lind said, "No hurry, Mr. Jefferson, is it really that important whether the marriage is completed or not?"

After saying that, he squinted his eyes and offered Jefferson a cup of tea.

Linde simply doesn't want to marry Rena, and wants to push the issue a little to see if there's any room for maneuver. To be honest, Rena is more suitable to be a brother than a wife.

But Jefferson had already started brainstorming, speculating that Lind really wanted to intervene in the War of Succession.

Linde's status is somewhat mediocre now. If he marries Rena, Rena will be completely separated from the Lars family. Linde's identity as the grandson-in-law of the Lars family is not very important, because after marrying Rena, she is no longer a member of the Lars family.

But if they haven't gotten married yet and are just an engaged couple, although Linde is still the grandson-in-law of the Lars family, Lena has not officially left the Lars family.

The identities of Linde and Lena are now in a Schrödinger state. Unless Grand Duke Lars opens the box, Linde and Lena will always be in a superposition state of identity, that is, they are members of the Lars family, but they can be separated at any time.

The identity of grandson-in-law is nothing special, but Jefferson thought of another important information during the brainstorming session, that is, the first king of the current Capetian Kingdom, Augustine I, also ascended the throne by virtue of his identity as a son-in-law!

In an instant, Jefferson's cold sweat began to burst out, and it surged violently, as if he had discovered some shocking secret.

Although Lind did have some thoughts of intervening in the War of Succession, it was more for defensive purposes, and he had no idea how the previous king came to power. But Jefferson didn't know this. In Jefferson's eyes, Lind, who was squinting his eyes and drinking tea in front of him, had become a terrible conspirator.

But after calming down, Jefferson felt relieved. What does this have to do with him? He has already placed his bets on all the candidate heirs of the Lars family. Now he is just adding another chip.

Lind watched in confusion as Jefferson's expression changed from enthusiasm to fear, then to calmness, and then back to enthusiasm, even more enthusiastic than before.

Lind, who had no idea what was going on, could only laugh awkwardly along with Jefferson.

After having a good meal and drinking, and entertaining the merchants who came, Jefferson began to talk to Lind about some things that happened in the North.

"By the way, brother, did you know that a group of demon soldiers have entered the northern border?"
