Chapter 145 Lajos's Choice

Chance.

This is really opportunity.

The essence of the entire Northland province lies in the western region, but in the western region, due to twenty years of development, most of the important resource points have been occupied by powerful nobles.

Other nobles and pioneering lords who want to develop have actually been greatly restricted.

Even the Dressrosa family doesn't have a big say in the entire west. It can only be said that it is relatively good.

This situation is actually very difficult to change.

After all, under the siphon effect, the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker.

The pioneering lords and powerful nobles who occupy more resources will become more powerful, further squeezing the living space of other noble lords.

It will not be until the entire Northland province is completely developed and a large number of new earl families, viscount families, and baron families are born, and the system gradually stabilizes due to conflicts with each other, that everything can come to an end.

Just like other developed territories back then.

But at this moment, due to the arrival of "divine enlightenment", there is undoubtedly a different beginning.

With the arrival of "God's Enlightenment", a large number of powerful nobles obtained the information and began to choose to evacuate. However, people cannot evacuate their territories. These territories are undoubtedly a huge benefit. Once they can obtain them, they can also survive this time. The rewards of the "divine revelation" crisis will be unimaginable.

Especially for Tono.

The expansion a few months ago has already made him extremely fruitful.

At this moment he seemed to see an opportunity again.

So after the conversation.

Tono didn't even eat dinner and left in a hurry.

Return towards the territory.

Thor didn't stop him either.

Every moment at this moment is the most important.

At present, not many people have discovered the problem.

Most of those who can be discovered are pioneer lords who are already aware of the situation. Naturally, it will have no impact if these people have to evacuate themselves.

But once time passes.

The other pioneer lords are not fools and can naturally detect it.

Once they are aware of it, these lords will inevitably take action. If it is later, the losses will be considerable.

Thor is also eager to know more news.

Those powerful nobles and lords wanted to evacuate, and there were some things that he seemed to be able to intercept.

After all, there are some things that the lord here cannot take away.

Such as slaves.

"Ren!"

"Send someone to notify Lajos and ask him to return immediately."

Watching Tono leave, Thor immediately opened his mouth and gave instructions to Ren next to him.

"yes!"

Ren nodded quickly.

Soon, a knight quickly headed west.

within the territory.

Thor was taking care of business.

While waiting for news.

Seven days later.

News from Tono arrived first.

In the study room.

Thor's eyes were fixed on the letter.

Time passes slowly.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Thor slowly put down the letter given by Tono.

"call!"

Breathing out a breath of turbidity, Thor couldn't help but have a smile on his expression.

The situation was just as he imagined.

According to Tono's knowledge, there are currently more than twenty-seven lords who have actually begun to evacuate, and most of them are powerful lords in the west.

And this is only what we know so far. There will only be more than twenty-seven lords who are actually taking action.

And the level has indeed been evacuated.

The reason why the income has dropped is because these powerful noble lords are dumping various items.

As a result, prices for various commodities throughout the West were falling rapidly.

The price of the silver armor even went back to three hundred gold coins.

The price of Nau has fallen to the bottom.

In the past, the price of one nau cost about one gold coin, or even a little more, but now the price of one nau is less than fifty silver coins, and it is still falling.

It can be expected that as more powerful noble lords dump, prices can fall further.

This is just material.

Slaves fell even more severely.

On the surface, the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce in Loren City strictly controls the slave trade, but in such a large Northland province, it is naturally impossible to completely ban the slave trade. As long as they are not slaves from the outside world, the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce doesn't really care. .

Therefore, there has always been a slave trade in the entire west, but it is not large, and the price is not much different from that in Loren City.

But at this moment, the price of slaves also dropped sharply. According to Tuono's understanding, the price of slaves was no longer less than five silver coins.

Tono even asked him if he also needed to buy a group of slaves.

"call!"

After exhaling a breath of turbid air, Thor couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

The situation was better than he imagined.

Based on the current situation, his gains may not only be to solve the problems of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce, but also to make a real fortune by taking advantage of this "divine revelation" opportunity.

His right hand tapped lightly on the desk.

In front, the knight waited respectfully.

After a moment, Thor spoke.

"Go back and tell your brother that as a slave, there is no need to worry for the time being. If you wait a little longer, you can have someone go and tell you about the major nau production areas and some large iron mines around it."

"Forget it, I'd better write a letter!"

He spoke and gave instructions to the knight in front of him, but as he spoke, Thor shook his head, picked up the quill and began to write.

The knight did not dare to disturb him and waited respectfully.

After a while, Thor finished writing the letter, sealed it, and handed it to the knight.

The knight responded respectfully and quickly retreated.

Watching this knight leave, Thor's eyes couldn't help but twinkle.

In his mind, there are thoughts flashing constantly.

This opportunity was something he didn't expect.

Even if it was just a few words from Tuono, he could feel the endless opportunities in it.

Once he can grasp it, his territory can really soar into the sky.

In thinking.

"Boom!"

There was a gentle knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Thor's thoughts went back and forth, and his eyes looked towards the door.

"Crunch!"

There was a soft knock on the door.

The maid Karin came in.

"Sir, Lord Lajos has returned and asks to see you!"

Karin spoke respectfully.

"Okay, let him come over!"

Thor nodded.

Karin then backed away.

After a while, Thor saw the dusty Lajos.

Compared to a few months ago, Lajos is undoubtedly a lot darker now, and his whole person is also a little more haggard.

"Sir, are you looking for me?"

Lajos spoke respectfully. At this moment, his name for Thor had already changed.

"How's the situation?"

"It is said that the development of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce has been affected to some extent."

Thor spoke with a question.

"It is true that there was some impact before. Those noble lords opened the pass, making it difficult for the Chamber of Commerce to spread. However, most of the nobles have canceled it half a month ago."

"However, I don't know what happened now. Prices of a large number of commodities in the western region are plummeting, and the Chamber of Commerce has inevitably been affected."

Lajos nodded, then shook his head and spoke with a wry smile.

During this period of time, he was indeed a little exhausted, and the constant running around made him feel a little overwhelmed.

But more importantly, the situation has not improved.

Originally, the noble lords had canceled the pass. Although he was confused, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, thinking that it was over.

But who would have thought that all kinds of supplies would plummet immediately afterwards.

And it can be expected that the impact will be greater in the coming time.

This made him extremely uncomfortable.

"You don't know yet?"

Listening to Lajos's words and looking at the other person's expression, Thor couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and spoke with doubts.

"Sir, what did you say?"

Lajos spoke in confusion.

"It's nothing. Hasn't your family sent you any news yet?"

Thor spoke curiously.

"what news?"

Lajos was even more confused.

"It is very likely that the Divine Apocalypse will break out in the Northland Province. These powerful noble lords are eager to flee and are dumping their supplies in preparation to reduce losses."

Thor chuckled and spoke.

The words were very calm.

Just what he said made Lajos's body tremble and his pupils could not help but widen.

"Sir, sir, what did you say?"

When Lajos spoke, he stuttered a little.

"On the day of divine revelation, my father translated the Titanic script and discovered what it was. It is very likely that some top nobles also discovered it, but the Assad family did not notice it."

Thor nodded and explained, looking a little surprised.

Of course, he didn't know at this moment that although many people knew about this news, not many people were aware of it. Only the top nobles were really aware of it, and they were also top families with a lot of power in the Northland Province.

Although the Assad family is extremely top among the count families, in the Northland Province, the Assad family does not have much power, so naturally they do not understand this matter.

"This this!"

And hearing Thor's confirmation, Lajos suddenly became a little panicked.

His face turned pale instantly.

"Don't worry, there shouldn't be any problems this time. The kingdom has already discovered it, so it won't be serious."

"Of course, if you are worried, you can also choose to evacuate. I will take back the shares you occupy with 5,000 gold coins."

Thor looked at the pale Lajos and couldn't help but comfort him. Then he seemed to have thought of something and added another sentence.

Lajos has indeed helped him a lot during this period, so he will naturally not force him to stay.

Thor can still remember the kindness.

"My lord, me!"

Lajos subconsciously wanted to speak.

But Thor waved his hand to stop him.

"You can think about it carefully. I won't force you on this."

"Just give me the answer within three days."

Thor shook his head and spoke softly.

Lajos was in a panic, and he didn't even know how to leave the study.

Watching Lajos leave.

Thor didn't say anything.

This is also human nature.

This is not a matter of crisis. Once the "divine revelation" breaks out, it is almost synonymous with destruction, and panic is the inevitable result.

There will be ghosts if you don't panic.

He can understand this too.

Even if Lajos chooses to leave, he will accept it and actually give him five thousand gold coins.

There are some things that Thor can still distinguish.

Night gradually fell.

Lajos, who was returned to the room, was extremely flustered, with thoughts intertwined one after another.

fear.

worry.

Confused.

There were even several moments when he thought about leaving.

Five thousand gold coins, plus his current status in the family, he could undoubtedly do many things that were unimaginable in the past.

Divine revelation, that is divine revelation.

Once it breaks out, it will really be a 100% chance of death.

Thor wants to stay, why should he stay and die together?

"Otherwise, persuade the adults!"

Lajos had another thought again.

I don't know how long it took, and I don't know how long it lasted.

Until in his mind, the scenes of Loren City that day appeared in his mind, and the scenes in the territory appeared.

The picture of his family's rising status appeared.

I don't know why, Lajos's panic gradually calmed down.

Other thoughts eventually faded away.

He made up his mind completely.

Without Thor, he would not have all this.

Even if there are enough risks, Thor is willing to stay, so he naturally can't leave.

The figure turned over, got up, and came to the desk.

He picked up a quill and paper.

He started writing.

Since he had decided to stay.

His strong business talent made him think of countless opportunities in this situation.

Time passed slowly.

Night fell as expected.

The next morning arrived.

Lajos knocked on Thor's door again.

"Knock, knock!"

The door was knocked gently. Lajos, who had not slept all night, did not look tired at all, but excited.

In his hand was the result of his work last night.

"Come in!"

A gentle voice sounded.

Lajos pushed the door open and walked in.

"Lajos?"

Looking at the person coming, Thor was stunned for a moment, with a surprised look on his face.

"Sir!"

Lajos spoke respectfully.

"You don't have to be so anxious. You can consider it for two more days."

Thor looked at Lajos, was silent for a moment, and then spoke seriously.

"Sir, time is extremely precious now. This is our chance. If we can seize it, both the Eagle Territory and the Eagle Chamber of Commerce will develop rapidly."

"Three days is too long!"

"Besides, without you, Lajos would have been expelled from the Assad family. I will not leave."

Lajos shook his head and spoke seriously.
