Chapter 714 Win-Win
Forward! Forward!
A large number of soldiers rolled forward, and the ranks were pulled into a long snake.
The war progressed slowly but continuously. The Great Xia Expeditionary Force kept moving forward, and even the troops were a little insufficient.
A large number of militia groups in the rear were pushed to the occupied areas to grab the fruits of victory.
A large number of cultivated mature lands, well-equipped mines, and a huge number of slaves, these are all wealth.
Compared with the hardships of starting from scratch, the plunder came faster and more.
The fruits of victory reactivated the memory of the Great Xia people.
The colonies set off a wave of migration, using militia groups as units to receive cheap property. This is a new round of wealth creation movement and a feature of this era.
Goode Trading Company also organized a large number of them. As knights of the empire, they have more privileges than ordinary gentlemen.
In fact, Olik has been looking forward to it for a long time, especially when he saw Hubble's heroic story in the newspaper, he felt uncomfortable.
However, Goode, who had returned from his homeland a long time ago, personally suppressed his younger brother and prevented him from making any reckless behavior.
"Don't look at it. The battle line has been pushed to the heart of the New Holy United Kingdom. There are no resistance troops here." Good said to his brother who was looking around.
Orlik was very disappointed. He wanted to show his style.
"Brother, I want to join the militia. Just let me go. You see, Hubble is already the commander of a regular army."
Orlik was desperate. His brother was so successful, and he felt so sad.
Good also envied Hubble's opportunity, but he still rejected his brother's proposal.
"No, we are different from Hubble. You don't need to fight for your life, and... the possibility of success is too low."
For Good, he has already put on shoes, how can he fight for his life like a barefoot person?
Only when you are so poor that you have no way to go, you will fight for your life.
Just like when he came to the New World, it was an adventure in itself.
But twenty years have passed, and he has saved a fortune and has a certain status. Why should he fight for his life again?
With a different status, the means of climbing up are also different.
Seeing that Orlik was obviously very frustrated, he comforted him: "Don't think too much. We have contributed money and effort this time. The empire cannot turn a blind eye. Although we cannot get too much reward, a court title should not be a problem. Don't think about taking risks."
Using money to buy status is a safe operation.
Olik was still unhappy after hearing this. He knew that this treatment was already envied by others, but people are afraid of comparison.
Good did not continue to persuade him. As long as he kept a close eye on him, this kid would not think of turning the world upside down.
The two brothers arrived at their destination and someone came to meet them soon.
"Sir Good, welcome, welcome."
The temporarily appointed local officials were so enthusiastic.
After all, Good Trading Company is a local snake in the New World, controlling logistics and transportation, and has great power.
And this time Good also donated a large amount of materials for free for the government's reconstruction of the occupied areas. How could they not be enthusiastic?
Good also showed a humble smile and started to be polite with the other party.
Then, in front of everyone, he handed over the donated materials first, and then agreed to let the local officials welcome him.
These materials can effectively help the government stabilize the local situation and speed up the reconstruction work.
For officials, this is a dazzling political achievement.
In front of political achievements, face is worthless.
Even the bottom line, many people are willing to lower it a little.
At the wine table, Good did not ask for anything, and he asked for nothing else.
It was not until the end of the banquet that the consul sent him away.
"Sir Good, you are really good at determination.
I still have some confiscated industries that have not been dealt with. If you have any ideas, you can send someone to contact me."
For officials with aspirations, they don't want to owe too many favors.
Anyway, the prices of industries in the occupied areas are relatively low, and there are only so many people who have enough financial resources to take over in a short period of time. He is willing to give Good a convenience.
After all, if you don't support this kind of patriotic businessman, do you support Grandet who is stingy?
Good smiled slightly and said calmly: "Thank you for your kindness, Lord Archon. I am planning to develop the transportation industry in the new territory of the empire and need a batch of properties."
The Archon smiled knowingly when he heard this. Sir Good is indeed a particular person. He is amazing.
Obviously, it is ideal to cooperate with such a person, with less trouble and more benefits.
Everyone develops together and converges interests, which is the kingly way.
"Sir Good, thank you for your contribution to the empire. I will reflect this in the government report and let His Highness know your contribution."
Everyone carried the flowery sedan chair, hello, I am good, everyone is good.
Good said goodbye to the Archon and others who were reluctant to leave, and then left in the car.
Olik could see the officials still waving in the rearview mirror, and their attitude was really good.
It was obviously the first time for everyone to meet, but they were as enthusiastic as officials who had known each other for a long time. It was really strange.
Good looked at his younger brother and began to teach the real dragon-slaying skills.
"See? This is the path we should take.
The empire cannot be composed of only soldiers. In the end, it is people like us who will enjoy the fruits of victory.
If you can solve a problem with money, don't use your life to solve it.
As for how to deal with these officials, it is full of skills.
Take a closer look, this is the way out for people like us. "
Goode couldn't say that he taught everything he knew, but he didn't hide anything.
He knew that a hero needs three helpers, and it would be impossible for him to succeed alone.
As for helpers, who can be more reliable than his own brothers.
He learned this from the nobles who had grown stronger.
Look at the nobles of the empire, their glory comes from their bloodline, but their power comes from His Majesty, and their influence comes from countless family members.
The entire imperial officialdom is full of the blood of the nobles.
There is only one inherited title, but The number of descendants of nobles is ten times or even a hundred times greater.
Now, if he wants to join the ranks of nobles, he must also learn from these nobles and expand his family.
Before that, his brothers are the best helpers.
So, in the following days, Olik followed his brother Good and ran around everywhere.
The newly occupied land was in ruins, and Good joined with resources, which was completely mutually beneficial.
Officials needed to quickly restore the economy, and Good needed to occupy the market in advance, so everyone won.
Who lost? Of course, the lords of the New Holy United Kingdom.
