Chapter 289 The killer is still on the way
"Investment?" These powerful men from various forces in the Frost Moon Kingdom were a little confused.
They were wondering how Rand had recruited such powerful beauty guards.
They should be called Elsa and Olenna, and they must be top-level professionals.
It is not clear at what level it is at the top level.
It's not surprising that Rand can recruit top-level professionals, but these two are ridiculously young and stunningly beautiful.
This is really rare.
Rand replied: "Yes, this will be a sure-win business."
Rand had his eye on their money.
The top professionals are not necessarily rich.
It cannot be said that they are poor. It is certainly not impossible for top professionals to be poor. However, compared to nobles like Rand, the wealth accumulated by most top professionals is relatively limited.
But the forces behind these people are very rich.
Moreover, since these people were sent to fight against the assassins from the Bolen Kingdom, they are all highly trusted, and some are even members of aristocratic families.
Their status is not low either. As long as Rand can convince them, it will basically mean that he has succeeded in attracting investment.
For example, the aunt of Grand Duke Thorn. Although she was arranged by Grand Duke Thorn to come and try such an outrageous marriage plan, it does not mean that her family status is low.
At least she is fully capable of deciding whether the Thorn Family wants to inject funds and invest in Crescent Moon Harbor.
Investment is not a strange word.
For example, many nobles would invest in chambers of commerce and then make profits from them.
But this was not the project Rand wanted to introduce to them.
Rand ordered the soldiers to treat the wounded, and then led the strong men to where the sea giants were working.
At this time, the Naga leader who was directing the sea giants to work discovered that in addition to the two powerful beauties beside Rand, there were six more women with terrifying auras. They were obviously powerful warriors of the highest level of professions.
Although the Naga leader is not particularly familiar with the situation on land, the top-level professionals must be quite rare.
Otherwise, before the appearance of this dark-haired young noble, the Nagas would not have lived so comfortably on this coastline.
Moreover, the Naga leader also has some understanding of the combat effectiveness of the top professionals.
You are so capable, why didn’t you say so earlier?
I'm going to fight a fart! Rand ignored the Naga leader's confused and shocked look, pointed at the plots of land and said, "I plan to build a port here, with a shipyard next to it."
He walked a distance with these top professionals and said, "With a little repair, this place will become a perfect deep-water port."
A deepwater port allows large ships to dock directly, rather than having to use small boats to transport cargo and crew.
"I will build roads here later." Rand also explained how he would build the road and introduced his past experience in road construction.
"In addition, a seafood processing plant, large warehouses, and many service facilities will be built here." Rand said confidently, "This will become a prosperous port city in the future."
Rand was very sure that he could really build a prosperous port city from scratch.
This is the only coastal place in the Frost Moon Kingdom and is destined to prosper.
But the pace of building up is very slow.
Rand's newly acquired Earldom of the Moon Phase has a lot of work to do, so it is impossible to invest all of it into building a port city.
Moreover, even if all of it were invested, with Rand's current human and material resources, it would take years to complete the construction.
Therefore, Rand needs to attract sufficient investment to speed up the construction process.
Moreover, it would definitely be a smart decision to give a share of the pie to the domestic nobles and royal family.
After all, although Rand personally conquered this territory with a coastline, he also received a lot of support from his country, and now people are sent to protect his safety.
If Rand took it all for himself, it would inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the domestic nobles.
And these are the benefits that should have been distributed domestically.
Rand plans to use this profit to attract investment.
The rhetoric is that once the port is built, everyone will benefit.
The sooner the port is built, the sooner everyone will get the benefits. Investing in it and helping it speed up the construction of the port city is accelerating the speed at which you can gain benefits!
"That sounds good." Lord Thorn's aunt crossed her arms, "But empty talk like that won't work. We need to see something concrete."
The great nobles and the royal family were, of course, interested in the interests of the port.
But all coastal countries face a problem: there are giant sea monsters, fishmen, nagas and mermaids in the ocean.
These are issues that hamper the maritime and fishing industries.
In this world, only countries with rich experience and strong national strength are qualified to get involved in the ocean.
Rand pointed to the Naga leader who was conscientiously directing the sea giants to work and said, "She understands the common language of the continent."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The top professionals were waiting for Rand's next words.
"I can conquer a group of Nagas and fishmen for my use." Rand said, "I have also cooperated with the Adventurer's Association. The early adventurers and the Naga tribe, as well as my soldiers, will ensure that the construction of the port is not hindered."
In fact, from now on, this sea area can already bring output to Rand.
Rand plans to give adventurers the right to fish, and then let them cooperate with fishermen and Nagas to go out to sea to fish together.
If we just stay in the near sea, there won't be too much danger. We can deal with the distant sea when we have big ships.
Offshore fishing boats are very easy to build and can be completed quickly.
"The Frost Moon Kingdom does not have the technology to build ocean vessels." A middle-aged male top-level professional in fancy clothes pointed out the problem. "And the number of Nagas you have is simply not enough to meet the demand after the port and shipping are developed in the future."
It would be ridiculous if they invested in building a port but then were unable to build ships.
Even if a ship could be built, there would be the risk of it being scuttled by aquatic intelligent creatures.
"Elsa." Rand motioned for Elsa to explain.
Rand had already started arranging the research on ship technology.
Elsa had been in charge of this project before.
Elsa disappeared for a while, and when she reappeared, she directed some soldiers to bring over a large water tank.
Elsa took out a piece of tin.
Then he used his hands to shape the iron sheet into the shape of a boat.
Rand's eyes twitched a little as he watched. The wrist and finger strength were incredible.
Elsa placed the tin boat in the water tank.
The small iron boat floated up.
"We haven't solved the problem of iron rusting when it comes into contact with water, but we have been studying shipbuilding technology for a long time, and this is the result."
…
Rand actually tried the Naga altar, but there was no response.
Maybe that god only favors aquatic creatures? Or maybe he is too weak to respond to continuous sacrifices? …
At this time, the assassination team hired by the King of the Kingdom of Bolen finally arrived at the territory of the Earldom of the Moon.
