The Dark King

Chapter 189: The Moulin Rouge

Mount Erdos, the Bron family.

In a study room in the old castle, Srudi held the letterhead in his hand, and toured carefully, his thick eyebrows gradually wrinkled, and said, "This old Fulin, wants to start his business with textiles? Accepting so many orders at one time, hum, The appetite is quite good, and I'm not afraid that I can't digest it!" He looked up at the housekeeper next to him, and said, "How is the investigation for you? How many factories do they have?"

The middle-aged butler said respectfully, "It's just one, and Fulin transformed the old factory that used to pack fruit into a medium-sized one."

"If they rely on this factory alone, it will be difficult for them to make waves. There must be a secret factory elsewhere." Srudi said flatly: "You should send someone to investigate immediately. This old thing came to me last time. His body is still very strong, and he will never be old and confused. He dares to take so many orders, he must be sure, there is something tricky in the middle."

The housekeeper nodded and said, "I'll check when I look back."

"I heard that the Scott Consortium has also made new news recently?" Srudi turned his head to look at him.

Guanjia said: "It is said that they want to develop a new industry. Recently, they have rented shops in various parts of the business district. However, they are all small shops, and the rent is not high. It should be only a small business."

"Small industries should also be stifled!" Srudi said coldly, "Tell the Mel family that the current mineral industry of the Scott Consortium is being pressed by us step by step. If we want to alleviate the financial crisis through other industries, we must do our best. interrupt."

"Yes." The butler agreed.

"By the way." Srudi said suddenly, "Has Shaya been here a few times recently?"

The housekeeper was stunned for a moment and said, "I've been here, looking for Miss to play with."

Srudi's eyes were slightly cold, and he said, "Are you playing, don't take this little guy too simplistically, she has been very close to the Milan family recently."

The butler froze for a moment, understood what he meant, and said hesitantly, "Master, does the Mel consortium want to..."

"Hey, they won't do it outright, the consortium needs to maintain the balance of power, our Bron family's industry is much stronger than the Milan family, and they are just playing around. That kid from the Milan family is a knight. But it is very simple, destined to be eliminated." Srudi snorted softly and said: "If Shaya comes over again, send someone to watch, don't let her talk nonsense with the young lady, there is nothing in this little girl's words. Be kind."

"I see." The butler understood.

...

...

In a blink of an eye,

Half a month passed.

In the training ground behind Lane Castle.

Four arrow targets were fixed two hundred meters away, and the arrows flew past one after another, piercing the targets.

With a puff, the arrow whistled, hitting the target red heart.

Du Dian put away the bow and arrow, took the towel from the servant next to him and wiped the sweat on his face, then moved his arm, and ran around since he was released from prison. The nail injury under the shoulder blade has not healed. After recuperating, the wound has completely healed, but occasionally pulling the bow with all his strength, he still feels a dull pain, and the bones that have been nailed inside are still in cracks.

"With my arm strength, I can also shoot a target of 300 meters. If I want to shoot far, the requirements for the bowstring are too high. The general bow is made of string, and the bow of the primary hunter is animal tendon. High-end bows are the tendons of some relatively special monsters, with extremely strong pulling force and toughness, but unfortunately, such high-end bows are expensive, at least thousands of gold coins."

Du Dian put away the bow, and he couldn't help but regret that the one he used was a bow left by an intermediate knight commander when the Ryan family was once brilliant.

"I haven't opened a bow for three years, and my hand feels a little unfamiliar. Fortunately, I played well at the beginning." Du Di'an glanced at the target two hundred meters away, turned and left the training ground. His current identity is the hunting of the Lane family. It is natural to practice hunting skills a lot on weekdays.

Back in the castle, the servant brought tea.

Du Dian took a few sips, came to the second floor to find Fulin, closed the door, and said, "How is the progress of the factory?"

Fulin was holding a magnifying glass and was reading a report on the table. Hearing Du Dian's words, his face showed a bit of sadness, and said: "The progress is a bit slow, although the new textile machine you have improved is efficient, but the number is too large. No, of the 43 orders I received, 16 have been completed and I have earned about 8,000 gold coins, and of the remaining 27 orders, it is estimated that there will be more than a dozen orders that cannot be completed within the specified time."

Du Di'an smiled slightly and said: "This is not in a hurry. You will rent a factory in a few days, send a few servants and guards there, and keep your whereabouts secret all the way."

"Rent a factory?" Fulin was stunned and said, "If there are two factories, with the number of guards in my hands, I'm afraid it will be difficult to manage them. Moreover, if the two factories are too noisy, it's easy to leak secrets."

Du Di'an smiled and said: "Even if it is maintained as it is now, it will be a matter of time for leaks. We have completed 16 orders in just half a month with only one factory. The Mellon consortium must know this, and it will not be like before. It’s a joke like that, if you send hunters to secretly inquire, or bribe our guards, it’s easy to know the weirdness inside.”

Fulin thought for a while and sighed, "Indeed."

"You continue to hurry up to take orders these days, the more you take, the better." Du Di'an said.

"You still need to pick up?" Fulin was stunned.

Du Dian showed a smile and said, "This is all money, don't you want to earn it?"

Fulin was stunned for a moment, suddenly thought of something, and he realized that he couldn't help laughing.

At the same time, on the next morning, Patton and others sent by Du Dian returned the letterhead.

Since the three of them left the castle, they will reply to a letter almost every three days, reporting what they have tracked.

Du Dian put the breakfast aside, opened the letterhead, read it quickly, his eyes lit up slightly, put away the letterhead, took out a match from his body, rubbed it, and burned the letterhead.

After doing this, Du Dian quickly ate breakfast and called the servants outside to help him prepare the car.

After getting in the car, Du Dian said an address to the driver, and the carriage moved slowly and drove away.

...

...

Commercial area, Lido Avenue.

This is a very prosperous area. People living in the commercial area basically know this place. The reason why this avenue is famous is that there is a top Moulin Rouge here. From the Moulin Rouge, you can feel the warm atmosphere inside when you pass by the gate.

This is the paradise of male nobles.

A carriage came and stopped at the door. Du Dian jumped out of the car, looked left and right, and suddenly saw a brightly dressed boy standing on the street nearby, it was Barton.

When Barton saw Du Dian, he ran over quickly and said, "You are here, today is a holiday, and he is here again, right inside."

Du Dian nodded slightly, glanced at his dress, and smiled: "It's pretty good."

Barton blushed and said, "In order to get inside, I bought it with money."

"Learning to use money is called skill." Du Dian patted him on the shoulder, expressing his relief, and then walked inside along the steps.
