What does charging for saving lives mean?
This means that those who unfortunately fled to Tieppo will have to pay a heavy sum to save their lives when the Raiser family intervenes to quell the beast tide.
Having just escaped one wolf's den, they entered another tiger's mouth.
The value of a human life is difficult to measure, but when life hangs by a thread, its value undoubtedly increases exponentially.
How much they want to ask for is entirely up to the Leiser family, isn't it?
And since the people so reasonably owed the Raiser family such a large sum of money, they were forced to remain in Tiebo.
Because they owe a huge sum of money, they can't run away.
They were forced to remain in the advanced city of Tieppo, working day and night as cheap labor for the Reiser family.
Squeeze out every last drop of value from itself.
Tijepo is an advanced city, so the cost of living is naturally quite high.
Just one sentence.
Hell for ordinary people, paradise for the rich.
Want to live in Tiypo, work to pay off debts, and still have some living expenses?
That's simply a dream.
In a city like Tieppo, a city of advanced technology, ordinary people working for the Raiser family could barely make ends meet.
It's impossible to accumulate even a single extra asset in a lifetime.
These people, forced to flee Godinlima, will become slaves of the Reiser family for life.
At this moment, everyone suddenly realized and understood Riboot's true intention.
They trembled all over, unable to imagine the tragic fate that those people might face.
In an empire where slavery no longer exists, Ripoultry cleverly uses this method to insidiously profit the Reiser family.
His actions were tantamount to creating those refugee slaves.
These people are not slaves in name, but once Godin Lima falls, their fate will be no less than that of slaves.
Unless, of course, they died in the Adventurers' City after the beast tide invasion.
But if they could survive, who would want to die there?
He exploited the residents' faint hope of survival, treating each person equally as a tool to gain his own benefits.
Riboot's ruthlessness and viciousness enraged everyone.
Unable to contain his rage, a nobleman, his blood boiling and his pulse pounding, began to hurl insults at Ripoultry:
"You...beast!"
However, Lipoult simply smiled and turned his head, his mysterious eyes, filled with flowing golden sand, looking at the angry nobleman.
At that moment, he, who was originally extremely angry, suddenly trembled all over.
It was as if I sensed something was there, and I was so scared that I couldn't say a word.
However, he was unable to quell everyone's anger.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Riboot, and countless rages seemed about to completely engulf him.
But Lipoulter appeared quite relaxed and unhurried, speaking calmly:
"Merchants, driven by profit, perish in the pursuit of profit."
"With such a great opportunity in front of you, I don't believe you can overcome your desires."
"Bullshit! We would never do that!"
Unable to contain his anger, a nobleman loudly refuted Ripoult's words.
But Lipoulter's gaze remained calm. His golden eyes slowly swept over everyone present, and he responded with a smile:
"Because you don't have that opportunity."
This statement stunned everyone present once again.
Meanwhile, Lia sat in her chair and nodded in agreement.
Deep down, she probably believed that if it were her, she would never do something so inhumane.
But as Lippo said, human desires are hard to satisfy.
Especially businessmen.
If an opportunity to become incredibly wealthy were presented to you, who could guarantee they wouldn't be swayed by desire?
and……
"Opportunities always need to be created, don't they?"
Lipoulter finally revealed an arrogant smile, opened his eyes, and raised the corners of his mouth all the way to his ears.
A bottomless fervor flickered within those golden eyes.
At this point, all the nobles present were numb, standing motionless like statues.
Perhaps, they finally understand something now.
Why would Ribo Ultra support the First Prince?
Don't forget, he's a businessman, and the shrewdest businessman in the entire empire.
His biggest successful deal was marrying the daughter of the former emperor.
That's why he was known as the Empire's Number One Merchant.
A businessman will never allow himself to suffer a loss.
Therefore, Riboot chose the southern part of the empire as the base of the Reiser family, and it was the southernmost location besides Godinlima.
Tiebó, having perfectly positioned himself to surround Godinlima.
If the eldest prince becomes emperor, the Raiser family will still receive strong support from the royal family, further strengthening their power.
But if he cannot become emperor, then the outcome will be as it is now.
The Raiser family will deliberately amplify the threat of the monster rift, forcing residents to seek refuge, thereby making a fortune.
Whenever the monster rift erupts, the residents of the south live in constant fear, and the nearest refuge is Tierbo, the leader of the Leiser family.
They could either request assistance from the Raiser family, pay a large sum of money, and have the Raiser family mobilize to quell the monster tide.
They either fled Godinlima or were forced to flee to Tiypo.
Regardless, they still had to pay a sum of money.
Otherwise, they would be completely enslaved.
From any point of view, Lipoultry made a huge profit.
