Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Chapter 109 Military Expansion and Making Money

Ironwood City

Early in the morning, the streets and alleys of the city were filled with the shouts of various hawkers. Although Ironwood City was small, it was definitely very popular. The wide streets felt crowded because of too many people.

The war in the Northland didn't seem to affect Ironwood City at all.

Because of the strength of the Hunter family, the Hunter Territory was not damaged by the war, and the people living in this territory still lived a very stable life, and the whole city continued to prosper at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Many people who fled have increased the population of Ironwood City. Under Richard's order, these refugees have been properly resettled, and in time they will become qualified tax sources and military sources for the Hunter family.

Li Cha led his troops into Ironwood City without haste, under the watchful eyes of the guards and the surrounding civilians.

The reason for being noticed is not only because of his identity, but more because of the twenty red flame BMWs that Li Cha carried,

There is a shortage of horses in the Northland. The horses in many people's minds are the kind of Northland pony that is only slightly taller than a human.

Sometimes even a large western border horse can attract crowds of onlookers,

Not to mention the red flame horse, which is a circle bigger than the western border horse, and has a red body all over the BMW,

If it weren't for Li Cha's powerful influence in Ironwood City, everyone would only dare to look at it from a distance. It might be strange to be surrounded by people at this moment.

On the contrary, the two coffin-like boxes on the carriage in the team were ignored by everyone.

After passing through the bustling crowd, Li Cha quickly returned to Ironwood Fort.

"Master Li Cha is back!"

As soon as he entered the castle, Li Cha heard a loud announcement, and the passing maids and guards also saluted him.

"Today there is a new circus in the city, and Lord Viscount should still be at the circus."

Viscount Sauter's three major hobbies are martial arts, hunting and circus watching.

Originally, after the development of Ironwood City, there were some small opera troupes performing. Viscount Salter went to one for the sake of being arty.

The opera troupe arranged the best seat for Viscount Sauter. Unexpectedly, Viscount Sauter sat in the first row and fell asleep watching, and the snoring almost covered the actors' voices.

Since then, Viscount Sauter has been very sincere about being a local nobleman, and never tried to cultivate any elegant hobbies.

"Lady Catherine should be in the garden."

"Well, let Director Iger come to the chamber for a while."

"Yes, Sir Richard."

After exchanging greetings with his mother as usual, Li Cha came to the meeting hall.

"Master Li Cha."

Iger had already arrived at the meeting room one step ahead, and when he saw Li Cha coming over, he immediately got up respectfully and saluted.

"Uncle Iger, don't be too polite, just sit down."

In front of his own people, Li Cha didn't have too much airs. He sat on the chair first, and asked Iger to sit down as well, trying to show his hostility.

Although Iger has always been very low-key in Hunter's house, Richard is very aware of his role. When he goes out to fight, it is unreliable to rely on Viscount Salter alone in the rear. Viscount Salter can only be used by force.

And Chief Iger is his main internal affairs talent. Without him, all aspects of Hunter's operations would definitely not be as smooth as they are now.

"Master Richard, due to the intake of refugees, the expansion of the Flying Bear Army, and the construction of road facilities this month, the expenditure has increased by more than 3,000 kinnar, which is much higher than the original plan."

What Iger said inside and outside the words is that if you have no money, you have to save it.

In fact, under Richard's management, Hunter's income has increased substantially every year.

In the Northland, not to mention other viscounty territories, even the earldom's financial revenue may not be comparable to that of the Hunter.

But Richard not only makes money, but also spends it. The stalls in Hunter's territory are getting bigger and bigger every day.

Anyway, money is not enough at any time, especially for a rising power, it really needs to increase expenditure in all aspects.

"Um"

After listening to Iger's report, Li Cha nodded, and then said:

"The Flying Bear Army will start to expand the army immediately. This time, we will first expand the army to ten thousand."

"Um?"

"Master Li Cha, we can't afford that much money anymore."

Iger almost thought that he heard it wrong. This time, Li Cha's request was to expand the army by five thousand, which meant that the initial settling expenses and equipment expenses would cost a few thousand kinnars in a mess.

The treasury is almost empty, so there is no money to expand the army.

"First use the land bond to calculate part of the cost, and then issue a bond of 30,000 kinaals in the name of the Hunter family, and pay a share of the interest."

In fact, the Golden Dragon Kingdom has already had a precedent for issuing bonds, but those are the patents of the big nobles, and the rich nobles in the river valley can do it too.

But the group of poor lords in the Northland, except for the Lancet family, issuing bonds is actually a joke.

With the financial strength and credit of these small nobles, no one is willing to buy the bonds they issued.

That is to say, the Hunter family is now winning consecutive battles, and some of their strength has been revealed, so Richard dared to try to issue bonds.

"Here, let me try."

Iger responded with some doubts. He had heard of issuing debts but never done it, and he didn't know much about it.

"Let the Bender family and the nobles of the Nader family subscribe for part according to their own conditions, and then sell it to merchants and wealthy people."

"yes"

In fact, Li Cha has no background, so he can only play some rogue tricks, and first force these nobles who are attached or semi-attached to him to buy some.

Further publicity and publicity, other merchants saw that all the lords bought it, which will somewhat increase their trust.

"Also, mass production of soap in Factory No. 1 is ready, and it will be sold under the name of our Hunter family."

It is not that the Golden Dragon Kingdom does not have products that are of the same quality as soap. A product extracted from purple flowers has the effect of a shower gel, and is highly sought after by the nobles of the kingdom.

But the output of this product is low, and the price is ridiculously expensive. Not to mention ordinary people, even the poorer nobles can't afford it. Anyway, the Hunter family couldn't afford it before Richard managed it.

As for soap, the manufacturing process is simple and the output is large, and the experience of using it may not be as good as that of Zihuaye, but it is cheaper, and it is definitely a profitable product. It can completely occupy the sinking market that was abandoned by Zihuaye.

If managed properly, the Hunter family would definitely become one of the wealthiest families in the kingdom.

Of course, it was precisely because of too much money that Li Cha never released him.

"this?"

Iger was a little hesitant after hearing this. As one of the core figures in the Hunter family, he knew about the existence of soap. The more he knew, the more cautious he became.

"Don't be afraid, we can keep it."

Li Cha naturally knows what Iger is worried about, and Iger is a man of insight, so he naturally understands the benefits of the soap that Li Cha made before.

Such a huge benefit was absolutely impossible to keep with the strength of the Hunter family before, so it has been kept in the snow since it was produced.

Until now, Li Cha has been promoted to a great knight, and he has two more diamond men who can compete with the great knight, so he dares to release such a huge profit.

Another reason, of course, is that Li Cha is short of money, the kind that makes him jealous.

"Compared to the price of the purple flower liquid, you don't need to set the price too low at the beginning."

"Yes, Master Li Cha."

Iger saw that Li Cha's attitude was firm, so he didn't hesitate anymore. Li Cha's decision-making is always correct. This kind of concept is not only instilled in ordinary citizens, but also

Iger also subtly accepted this concept.

"Arms expansion and bond issuance are both to be completed this month."

Li Cha thought for a while, and still emphasized the date, he was afraid that time would drag on for a long time, and when the statue of the god-eyed bird in the market was gone, he would cry without tears.

"Little Li Cha, come back!"

Just as Richard had arranged things, Viscount Soter's voice came from outside the castle.

Li Cha rubbed his eyebrows helplessly.

Viscount Soter's loud voice, it is estimated that his voice can be heard throughout the castle,

In the entire Hunter Territory, there are only Viscount Salter and Mrs. Kailin.
