Glory Riding and Cutting

After returning to his temporary residence, Kress suddenly tightened his expression, pulled out his dagger and looked into a dark corner of the room, and then saw a handsome man in a dark suit walking out.

Seeing his red eyes and the fangs that were slightly exposed when he opened his mouth, Kress relaxed his vigilance, inserted the dagger back, pulled out a chair and got down.

"Are you the Vampire Earl Enoch that the commander said?" If he hadn't made some movement just now, Kress would have been completely unaware of him when he first entered the room, and his hiding ability is indeed very strong.

"Yes, Lord Kress, I am Enoch, and the master said that you will issue tasks for us in the future."

"Well, how can I contact you when I need it?"

"When we have nothing to do in the future, we will stay in the auction house that the master is about to build. As long as you and your subordinates show up nearby and give a signal, I will come back to you."

"Let's go if there's nothing to do, I'm going to rest."

"Okay, Mr. Kress, the master wants me to tell you that the follow-up manpower assigned to you will arrive soon. Please buy the shop as soon as possible, choose a good location and start manufacturing. This is the funds that the master wants me to bring to you With that said, Enoch waved lightly to his side so that Kress saw a small box beside him.

Seeing Kress nodded, Enoch bowed his head and bowed before disappearing from the darkness. Come and go without a trace, really suitable for the position given to him by the commander, Kress thought in his heart, then he opened the box to check the funds and went out again.

Ronan has also entered the city of Teldrassil at this time, and has arrived at the first position he preselected yesterday. At this time, he is observing on the spot and communicating with the current owner of the shop.

"My lord, our place is in a relatively good location in the outer city, close to the market, and there are many residential areas nearby, with a lot of traffic, and my shop has been built for less than ten years, and it is all made of high-quality stone and wood. Absolutely Sturdy enough! I would never have sold it if I hadn't needed capital to run my business recently!"

Indeed, the appearance of this two-story small building looks very good, and the area is also acceptable. The first floor is more than 300 square meters, and the second floor is smaller than the first floor, but the same. This is the place where Ronan chose to open the mahjong parlor. As an ordinary civilian area, the second floor is the VIP area, and the stairs on the first floor and the second floor will be separated. The entrance on the first floor cannot go to the second floor. If you want to go to the second floor, you must enter from another entrance. Of course, the most important thing is that the sound insulation effect must be good. If it is noisy or you can hear what is said next door, it will not be good.

"Well, how much is it?" Ronan was quite satisfied, and after making a plan in his mind, he asked the price.

"Five hundred gold coins! My lord."

"It's a little expensive for you, the houses in the outer city are not worth the price!"

"But my lord, this is not a blank. It has everything that should be in it, and you can use it directly!"

As the two of them bargained, the deal was finally settled at a price of 450 gold coins, and Ronan didn't need those things in him, so it must be completely redecorated. Those things were moved by the boss and given to Ronan. Ten gold coins cheaper.

Then Ronan called the engineering team, explained his requirements and ideas to them, and left some deposits for them to hurry up and finish the project before heading to the next place.

This shop Ronan is planning to open a library. He has already hired some bards and other guys with some literary skills to help him create. After all, Ronan has no time to write, so he just provided an outline and let them follow The aesthetic filling content of the people of this world.

Ronan was only planning to publish some short stories at first, and he was working on a newspaper, revolving the door to report some new things about Teldrassil and some things that happened on the mainland, and also published some serial novels, and at the same time attached Ronan's own shop. Ads, for which Ronan had to hire some editors and newsboys.

At the beginning, it was sold on the streets. First, a few issues were delivered for free, and then charges were gradually started. In the future, the service of home delivery after subscription can also be carried out.

There is no printing in this world, but Ronan remembers the basic principles of engraving and printing, so he can provide it. But this made Aldridge cry. After all, in order to avoid premature leakage of technology, Aldridge must give hints to every employee who has access to core technology.

But in this world where laws are not sound and supervision is very difficult, piracy is inevitable. Ronan can only use guards to prevent competitors from spying on intelligence and Aldridge hints to avoid employees being bribed to reduce the speed of piracy. After all, they do not have engravings In the case of printing, the cost of the scribes alone made it impossible for their books to be cheaper than Ronan's.

This library is bigger, with a large yard and several houses inside. Ronan plans to convert the room of about 200 square meters in front of it into a library, selling some printed existing books and novels hired by himself.

The other rooms in the courtyard are used as staff dormitory, workshop and canteen, and another one is built in the middle of the courtyard to serve as a warehouse. This courtyard cost more than 800 gold coins from Ronan, and it was because it was a little remote, otherwise Ronan would not have been able to buy such a large courtyard.

If the library becomes popular in the future, Ronan should start a chain, set up libraries in other places in Teldrassil, and even spread business to other places in the kingdom.

Next is the last place. It is an open space of about 1,000 square meters in Xicheng District that Ronan can only buy through his connections. Ronan has already recruited craftsmen, and after carefully studying the design drawings, let them start construction Yes, there are two floors on the ground, the first floor is display cabinets plus the consignment area and office area, the second floor is the auction area, with a circular platform in the middle and small private rooms around it.

There is also a basement level used as a warehouse to store goods and alcohol, and occasionally as a secret meeting place for assassination teams. The auction house was completed in about a month, including the wages, totaling more than 2,000 gold coins.

So far, the funds in Ronan's hands have been ten to seventy-eight, and everything is unfolding. He only needs to wait until the completion of the project is completely on the right track. Whether it is a loss or a profit, he will know when the time comes. Ronan is still a little nervous. After all, although The plan is very good, but the reality is often different from the imagination. These projects are related to Ronan's future development, so he can't help being nervous.

At the same time, Ronan also secretly made up his mind that if anyone insists on standing in his way, he may have to disappear in the end. After all, if this plan fails, it will be difficult for Ronan to save so much money again. Funding up.

Ronan also thought about putting everything on the export merchant ship, after all, it is the most profitable, but after thinking about it, he decided to bet on multiple lines and not hang himself.

Thank you for the reward from my boss (*￣3￣)╭
