Chapter 397 396: Are you cheating? [Updates with monthly tickets(1/2)
Chapter 397 396. Blaze! Are you cheating? - [Monthly ticket plus update 310]
"How much? Say it again! I suspect I may have heard you wrong just now."
A few days later, Murphy looked at Miriam in shock in his office, and the Scarlet Archon repeated helplessly:
"The village chief of Booty Bay has signed an investment agreement with several Yankee businessmen with some local background, using landless farmers from the Kafhoka area to replace financial investment. So far, in accordance with the agreement between the two parties, in the following
Before the end of the month, the Yankees need to transport at least 18,000 farmers into Transia in exchange for 10% of Booty Bay's shares.
This part of the shares will be held and managed by a newly established commercial company under the Baishan Faction.
It’s not just you, I couldn’t have imagined that your warriors could bring up human trafficking by opening a casino. How much do they like to do this kind of thing? Professor Malcolm has already denounced this as uncivilized
We can fully imagine what cruel methods those businessmen will use to achieve their goals as quickly as possible.
And as the business in Booty Bay gets bigger and bigger in the future, I guess there will be no shortage of similar things.
Perhaps we should urge Mr. Crow to come up with a code of law as soon as possible, even if it is of a transitional nature! This kind of chaotic situation that exploits loopholes cannot happen again and again."
"No, no, no, what I care about is not the methods they will adopt. I just want to know, how did my warriors do it?"
Murphy said in surprise:
"How did they convince the Yankee businessmen to make profits by betraying their compatriots? Is Count Andre's friendship so important to them? They can even be ruthless enough to do something that breaks the bottom line.
Aren't they afraid of Nordtov's official accountability?
I think no matter how corrupt the Yankee officials are, they will not allow their citizens to be sent out of the country on such a large scale, right?"
"It seems that you really know nothing about the Yankees' political system. My lord, you actually expect that their system, which is rotten to the core, can respond in time to this kind of thing? Should I?
What about you having confidence in the Yankees?
Or should I say that your knowledge in this area is really your shortcoming?"
Miriam shook her head and said:
"It's impossible for their officials to stop them. As long as the merchants bring up the name of the Earl of White Mountain's attendant Vesta, they don't dare to have any objections. Let's not mention the name of Her Majesty the Wolf Lady's only brother. He is just a Thorn clan.
It's not something ordinary officials can afford to offend.
You cannot ignore the terrifying influence of the Thorn Clan on the political level of Nordtof. It is not without reason that Lady Shani is called the ‘Uncrowned King of the Wilderness’.
Secondly, the Kavhoka area is a newly occupied place, Murphy.
Although Her Majesty the Wolf Lady wants to reform the country's backward political system and dismantle the conservatives of other factions, you cannot ignore that the factions that support Her Majesty the Wolf Lady themselves also belong to the rentier class.
The Wolf Girl needs to entrust them with new fertile land to reward their loyalty in exchange for more support within the system.
The rich Kafhoka Great Plains had already been carved up under such a decision. The nobles also had their own factions and subordinates, and their subordinates also needed rewards.
After such a layer-by-layer distribution, all the land has new owners, and the farmers living on the original land will naturally have to bear all the costs for these guys' so-called 'reforms'.
In fact, I have been paying attention to the situation in the Kafhoka Plains through the network of the Batasin Chamber of Commerce. I can only tell you that the situation there is more serious than you think.
In the past two months, the Winter Wolf Legion of the Crimean Fortress has been dispatched 54 times, all to suppress small-scale rebellions.
The people over there no longer have to worry about whether they are hungry or not; they can no longer survive.
The fact that we can accept these landless farmers in a way that does not harm the diplomacy between the two countries is a great thing for the Yankee officials in the Kavhoka area. They even have to thank you when they have fun at night.
'kindness'."
".I was shocked."
Murphy rubbed his brows and sat back in his chair. He said:
"Even after living in Transia for so many years, I still can't understand the underlying logic of these things that happen in this land.
If my warriors knew about this, they would definitely rush into the Kafhoka Plains and hang up the street lamps with their own hands one by one, those bastards who oppressed the people.
Alas, the Sons of Order cannot turn a blind eye to this unspeakable chaos. When they enter a dark place of evil, turning the place upside down is the only justice and morality they can do."
Miriam looked at Murphy.
The Scarlet Archon once again felt the unspoken anger in Murphy's heart. It was this hidden anger that always made Murphy and other vampires incompatible.
The way he views the world is completely different from that of all Transians. If anything, Miriam feels that Murphy is actually more like those warriors from another world than a "local".
The more she comes into contact with the warriors, the clearer Miriam's feeling becomes.
Of course, she would not be stupid enough to say these words to her face. After Murphy was silent for a few seconds, the Archon said again:
"In short, your warriors have done another miracle that surprised everyone. The administrative office has already submitted several proposals to build more casinos similar to Booty Bay in other parts of Transia."
"no!"
Murphy said in a deep voice:
"Don't even think about it! Are you still doing this kind of thing that corrupts people's hearts right now because you're worried that we won't die quickly enough? Sure enough, money is so attractive that fools can even ignore the threats that are so close in front of them just to fall.
Before going to hell, grab the bag of gold coins tightly.
Miriam, you and Professor Malcolm will discuss it again and finalize the license issue.
I can’t stand casinos like this being spread all over Transia, especially the Blood Rat Gang, I must keep a close watch on them, they will be chopped off immediately if they dare to stretch out their claws!”
"This is also the second thing I want to tell you, we need tax collectors now."
Miriam said:
"We are training tax officers ourselves, but they are still a long way from maturity. The instant success of Booty Bay will definitely trigger other imitators.
Even if this dangerous field is not involved, tax laws for other business models have already been put on the agenda. Your expert in the legal field, Mr. Crow, has been sorting out Transia's various habits recently.
He assured me that he could provide me with a temporary transitional job next month, but the tax officer vacancy had become a big problem.
I hope you can."
"I know."
Murphy nodded and said:
"I will try my best to recruit some professional talents, and they will gradually enter Transia next month."
"OK."
Miriam breathed a sigh of relief.
But at the same time, she also felt unspeakably ashamed.
She felt that she regarded Murphy and his warriors as a "cheating method" to solve all problems. When she and Professor Malcolm were unable to find a solution to a difficult problem, the warriors from other worlds could always be like mechanical drops.
God appears to solve all problems.
Although they are indeed very useful, this mentality is not what a manager should have!
Miriam, Miriam, you must work hard to improve your political and governance level, and you can no longer rely on the strength of others!
You need to be ashamed!
"Ding"
Just as Miriam was about to leave Murphy's office, the Governor's core orb suddenly sent a light reminder, causing him to lower his head and glance at the information that had just appeared.
Then, Murphy's expression became strange.
He glanced at Miriam, hesitated, and said:
"Your senior has already set off. Major Fraser, well, he is now a colonel. The Plantagenet Kingdom Military Observation Group commanded by Colonel Fraser set out from the pioneer fortress. They will lead Marshal Loren to support the 20,000 soldiers who gave us
Five thousand border guards marched directly from the Undermar Hills to the Dark Barony and found a base there."
"You don't have to use such a strange tone."
Miriam said with a straight face:
"My Lord Fraser and I do not have any relationship beyond that of friends and partners. Do you want me to contact you? If possible, please find someone else.
I don't want the vicious rumors about myself and him to continue to spread.
What's more, Colonel Fraser's fiancée, Miss Pinkie Pie, is still in Transia."
"No, you have to go in person this time."
Murphy sighed and explained:
"They will definitely find the Bloodclaw clan hiding in the Smuggler's Grove in the Dark Baron, and Hogg has just applied for safe asylum from us.
The Gnoll Chief is also worried that he and his clan will be cleared out by the soldiers of the Plantagenet Kingdom.
You must explain all this to Colonel Fraser in person and try to gain his understanding. Judging from our previous contact with him, Fraser is a very organized person. He has a background in intelligence work and can completely understand this.
How useful a unique gnoll clan can be for us in the Black Disaster.
In addition, I have chosen an area as a perfect location for the Plantagenet Expedition. It is the territory we discussed before, at the intersection of Cato, Transia and Filthy Swamp.
It is close to the transportation lines of Lake Surpos and the Genoa Peninsula, and is very convenient in all aspects.
Maybe the Wolfsbane vampires would have objections, but the heirs of the Capet family were not something they could touch unless old Edward came here in person.
honestly.
I’m a little looking forward to the appearance of the ancient one in the Cato area, and Tris and I both have many questions we want to ask him.”
