"How do we deal with this intermediary shop?"
Zhang Rang looked at Feng Yun, but Feng Yun didn't have the nerve to take this house over.
"You guys can handle it yourselves. Having an agent will make it much easier for us to sell the land in the future."
To be honest, Fengyun really wanted to sell that area.
If you can't make money, you have to find a way to sell it as soon as possible.
"Okay, okay, then we will respectfully obey your orders."
Zhang Rang smiled and put away the agent, and finally took out the highlight of this event.
"General, this is the deed to the land we bought for 400 million. Please keep it for now."
"Hehehe."
Feng Yun smiled and put away the deed, then said:
"Let's study how to develop such a large area."
Everyone looked at the vast sea area and various large and small islands north of the Royal Capital Port and up to the Gem Island, and felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
However, they did handle the government affairs of the Han Dynasty for a period of time.
After thinking about it for a while, I came up with an idea.
"General, we need to send a naval force to protect this area. Then we need to negotiate with the Royal Capital Port. All their ships going out to sea pass through our waters, and they have to pay a fee. Also, we can't waste the fishery resources in this area. We can find some fishing boats to cooperate with us and share the profits with them in proportion."
After hearing the suggestions of the Ten Attendants, Fengyun nodded.
The Demon Shark has been idle for some time because there has been no war. We can let Ruan Xiaoer come overseas to show the style of our Han Navy.
If you want the Viking Kingdom to pay money, you must use force to solve it.
The Vikings were notorious pirates, and without sufficient naval power there was no way to make them surrender.
The maritime power developed on the Gem Island during this period of time no longer requires pirates.
With the protection of the Magic Shark, it would be easy to protect this sea area.
"Okay, I'll go make the arrangements. Also, try to recruit some people on the islands within the sea. That way, we can become a powerful force. We can't just do business. We need people to protect our land."
The Ten Attendants were instantly impressed when they heard this.
Sure enough, the pattern is different.
What they think about is how to make money, while Fengyun thinks about how to keep the wealth they have now.
"Okay, let's do it now."
Feng Yun left immediately after he finished speaking. He went to bring Ruan Xiaoer's men and the Demon Shark over.
The Ten Attendants began to get busy.
"Second Brother, take some people and set up the General's Dahan Royal Gem and Jewelry Store. Before opening the store, remember to train them first. It must have the characteristics of our Dahan people."
"Okay, big brother, I'll go right away."
"Third brother, you stay here to manage the agency and figure out the procedures here first."
"No problem, big brother."
"Everyone else, follow me. Let's go talk to the city lord here."
It is definitely not easy to get money from the city lord.
Fengyun has already gone to prepare, so they can't just sit there idle.
There is a saying that goes "be polite before using force."
This principle needs to be explained to him first.
Zhang Rang led his seven brothers and followed the guide to the city lord's mansion.
The term for city lord may be slightly different in foreign countries.
In some places he is called the city lord, and in some places he is called the mayor.
It depends on their administrative planning.
The Vikings respected strength, so there was no mayor who was not a mayor.
Although this is the royal city, it is somewhat similar to the shogunate in Yingzhou.
The king of the Viking capital did not have much more power than the mayor of the royal city.
Sometimes, the city lord has the final say.
This time, the issue concerns the port's revenue, so naturally the city lord has the final say.
When they arrived at the city lord's mansion, they were almost driven out.
"Go away! You are not allowed to stay in front of the City Lord's Mansion for long."
"We have something important to discuss with the city lord."
"Get lost, the city lord has no time for common people like you."
The guards didn't listen to what Zhang Rang said and immediately drew their weapons.
Zhang let them see this, but they did not back down. They were people who had seen the world.
He shouted loudly, "If you delay the city lord's important business, can you bear the consequences?"
The guards were stunned at the same time, and then they backed down.
"Why do you want to see the City Lord's Mansion? What's the matter?"
"How can a soldier like you know about such a big thing? Hurry and report it to the city lord. If you are delayed, you will be in trouble."
Seeing the other party's aggressive attitude, the guards did not dare to make any inappropriate moves and immediately said:
"Wait a moment, we'll go ask for instructions."
Only after the guards came out did they make a gesture to invite them in.
"Please come in, our city lord lets you in."
The Ten Attendants looked at them with disdain and walked inside without looking back.
They were taken to the reception room of the City Lord's Mansion.
At this time, the city lord was already waiting for them inside.
Seeing the stranger coming, the city lord frowned and said:
"I don't know who you are? What do you want from me?"
The guide knew the city lord, and the person he met was the city lord himself.
He immediately pulled Zhang Rang and motioned him to speak.
Zhang Rang immediately understood and said with a smile:
"Hahaha, it turns out to be the City Lord. We are peace envoys from the Han Dynasty. We are here to seek peace."
Zhang Rang confused the city lord as soon as he spoke.
"Peacemaker, what peacemaker? What Han? What peace? Are we at war with the Han? Where is the Han?"
After hearing a series of questions, Zhang Rang did not answer directly, but said:
"The Han Empire is the most powerful empire in the world. We love peace and have no desire to bully a small nation like yours. When I say peace, I don't mean war. Rather, I mean we have purchased all the sea areas north of the Royal City Port. Your ships now sailing out of the port are all sailing in our Han waters. Therefore, you are infringing on my rights."
"ah?"
The city lord was even more confused at this time.
What business does this sea area have with the Han? Hasn't it always been the Vikings' right since ancient times?
But the city lord also reacted.
If you want to accuse someone of a crime, you can always find a pretext.
He said angrily: "What Han sea area? This is clearly our Vikings' territory."
Zhang Rang then calmly took out the maritime documents they had just purchased.
This thing can't be faked.
When the city lord understood, he immediately became furious and said:
"Who...who did this? Check it out for me."
Of course, he was not angry at Zhang Rang.
He knew that there were only a few people in the entire Viking world who had the authority to do this.
But Zhang Rang didn't care what he said, as the initiative was now in his hands.
After someone reported this to the city lord, he immediately shouted:
"Bring me this wasteful thing right now. I'm so pissed!"
