When everyone turned their eyes to Lin Xingchen and his wife again, they all exclaimed.
There are four huge butterflies above their heads. The four butterflies are divided into four colors, and each one is so beautiful that it seems unreal.
He waved at the butterfly that was like a flame, and the butterfly flew to Lin Xingchen's right hand.
"This is the gift I picked for you. They all have a unified name, the Magic Butterfly, but I hope you can give it a name."
The magic butterfly understood Lin Xingchen’s words, and gently flapped its wings and flew into Evelin’s hands.
"Lin, they are so beautiful."
"Hurry up and give it a name! Then it can grow with you."
"Can we call it Fire Dance?"
"Of course." Huo Wu, who got her own name, kept flying up and down around Evelyn. The wind brought by the huge wings made the hair of both of them messy.
"Don't underestimate it, it's a level five magical beast." The guests around were stunned to hear that it was such a beautiful creature, and it was actually a powerful magical beast.
"It is naturally endowed with wind attributes, and it also has a good water attribute. Most importantly, it has an unparalleled talent for fire magic, which is a perfect match for you. This is a gift I specially picked for you."
“Thank you, I really like it.” Evelin looked at the beautiful figure and liked it more and more.
"I'm glad you like it. What do you think about what I told you?" Seeing how happy she looked, Lin Xingchen couldn't help but ask.
"Of course, they like and love you no less than I do." Evelyn generously agreed to Lin Xingchen's somewhat excessive proposal.
"Dear distinguished guests, I would like to ask you to be my witnesses. I would also like to ask His Excellency Duke Griffin to be my master of ceremonies."
"Hehe... As an old man, I am very willing to be the witness in this kind of wedding, as many times as I want, haha..."
As he said this, Griffin once again stood in the position of the married couple. Lin Xingchen turned around and led Avril and Anna, who were standing beside him, to Duke Griffin.
The same question about whether they were willing to marry Lin Xingchen, both Avril and Anna were basically sleepwalking. Originally, they both thought that they would at most appear in the Duke's Castle as lovers.
After all, although Duke Green recognized them, they were nobles themselves and naturally knew how difficult it would be to marry them both.
Now Lin Xingchen was planning to marry them both in front of most of the nobles in the kingdom. For them, this was a scenario that they could never even dream of.
He waved again and two magic butterflies flew to them, "These two are for you too."
"Don't want it! Anna and I are not magicians, so it would be a waste for us to give it to Evelyn!" Evelyn said no, but her face was fixed on the blue and white magic butterfly beside her.
"You also have what she has, so there's no need to push it away."
The wedding officially ended here, and the remaining Lin Xingchen was given to Roy, "This is the reward you get for your efforts in the territory."
In order to avoid misunderstanding, Lin Xingchen also explained it in front of Evelin and others.
"Thank you, young master. I really like this kind of reward." Roy happily accepted the gift.
They enjoyed a full seven-day post-wedding vacation, although these seven days were a bit uncomfortable for Lin Xingchen, just like a cell phone addict who had lost his internet connection and felt like he had lost his soul wherever he went.
After finally promising them to accompany them for seven days, Lin Xingchen left quickly and arrived at the Maple Leaf Hotel, which was once the Maple Leaf Chamber of Commerce, early in the morning.
Today is an important day for Lin Xingchen. Three quarters of the nobles of the entire Kulma Kingdom have arrived in Maple Leaf Territory.
All the participants are looking forward to today's event with great anticipation.
The leader of today's event is Lin Xingchen, and Anna, Avril and Charles are all his think tanks.
As he entered on time, those who were resting with their eyes closed or discussing in low voices stared at him with wide eyes.
"Everyone present here is our elder, so I'll make a long story short. You can't make all the money in one place in Maple Leaf Territory, and the topography of Maple Leaf Territory restricts development, so it's inevitable to expand the scope of business.
As for how to expand, that is the main purpose of our discussion this time. I can provide technology and seeds, and you can provide manpower and land. In the end, we can work together to make this piece of cake bigger and stronger. As for how to distribute the benefits, everyone can express their own opinions. "
The chaotic voices from below the stage rang out again. Some said that each person should get half, some said that everyone should get it according to their investment, but there were more voices of excuses.
"Everyone, I remember I said that for this meeting, whether it is an individual chamber of commerce or a joint venture of several people, you all need to select someone who can make the decision. Don't talk nonsense like you are now. If you haven't selected your own person to make the decision, I can wait for you."
"Lin, you can rest assured that they have already selected those. I guarantee that they will not say such nonsense."
As the oldest, most qualified and most powerful person present, Duke Griffin calmly threatened those people.
"Then first I would like to ask Master Griffin what you think?"
"Lin, you don't need to worry about me. My grandson Owen and you are the best at doing business here. I agree to everything you said. I'm here to keep things under control for you today." The old man spoke with great pride.
"Haha... the old man is so generous, I really admire him..." What do you think of Owen? "No, what I mean is almost the same as what you told me, don't worry, I absolutely support you." Owen also imitated his grandfather's calm and generous attitude.
"So what about the George family you represent, Mr. Alfred?"
"I absolutely support you as well." Alfred affirmed with a serious face.
"Do the other two duke families have any ideas?"
The two families were unanimous in their support for Lin Xingchen's next suggestion. Lin Xingchen had already contacted the four dukes about this, and the four families were quite in agreement with Lin Xingchen's proposal.
"I remember that the royal family also came this time, and there are two teams. I wonder who will be the leader?"
"Princess Elsa is the first in line to the throne, so Princess Elsa is naturally the priority." A tall man stood up and announced loudly beside a lady in a gorgeous dress.
"Now that everyone has a leader, I'm going to tell you about my plan. I hope you won't interrupt me before I finish."
“The kingdom is vast, and each lord’s territory varies in size, so I want you to cooperate so that everyone can make money.
My opinion is that we should form a super chamber of commerce based on countries, and each of us would invest with our own capital. If we make money, we would share it together, and if we lose money, we would share it together. The advantage of this is that everyone can participate.
The downside is that once someone gets greedy, the entire chamber of commerce may go bankrupt. Here I suggest that everyone who wants to participate should not take things that do not belong to them because there is no benefit in doing so. "
"I've asked my men to calculate that if we all work together well, the benefits we'll get each year will definitely be higher than the taxes you'll collect from your own territory."
"This is the basis for cooperation. If anyone doesn't want to participate now, they can leave this meeting room."
After a pause of a few minutes, seeing that no one moved, Lin Xingchen continued his speech.
“Since no one is willing to withdraw, it proves that everyone agrees with my proposal in principle, and the next step will be easy.
The prices of goods are different. It is impossible for everyone to know that planting mulberry trees and raising snow silkworms can make money, so the whole kingdom will plant mulberry trees, right? That would not maximize our interests.
What I mean is that, based on the distance and local season, we work out a complete planting and breeding plan.
For example, the province of Loubet where the Duke of Griffin is located is already full of mulberry trees. You can't ask people to cut them all down and plant cotton, as that would be a waste of resources.
My plan is roughly like this: in the east, I will plant mulberry trees and breed snow silkworms, while in the south, I will plant cotton and some vegetables. As for other places, I will negotiate according to the local seasons. The Chamber of Commerce will inform me in advance what to plant each year, and then I will cultivate seeds and distribute them to various places.
The purpose of this approach is to make our goods more diverse, rather than being too monotonous with just silk and cotton.
After all the goods are sold, everyone will divide the money according to their respective shares. Those who invest more will earn more, and those who invest less will naturally get less, which is fair. "
"Then how do we calculate the investment ratio? You just said that the lord invests his own territory and manpower. How about this?" A marquis raised a question that everyone was concerned about.
"Good question. The ratio is naturally calculated based on the capital you invested. If the total capital of our super chamber of commerce is one million gold coins, and your territory and manpower are calculated to be 100,000 gold coins, then the shares you can own are 10%. When the time comes, the money will be divided according to this 10%."
“If your 10% is combined with that of other lords, then you can divide the 10% among yourselves. We only count the leading one.
The rest will be calculated by you, and we will not calculate the shares of those lords."
"Everyone, it's actually very simple. I gave this chamber of commerce a name, the United Chamber of Nobles."
