Chapter 50 Unowned Large-Scale Copper Mines, The Rhineland Area Is Booming Again
"It truly lives up to its reputation as the top transcendent race in the Roland Continent."
"The power of the Golden Dragon's bloodline is truly formidable."
Opening his eyes, Rennes couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
Just obtaining a trace of the insignificant Golden Dragon bloodline has caused a tremendous transformation in his body.
His physical strength has increased twelvefold.
His internal organs have also undergone significant strengthening.
At the same time, he has also gained the talent of half-dragonization (activating the Golden Dragon bloodline to enter a state of being half-human and half-dragon, thereby gaining even more powerful bloodline abilities).
Even his lifespan has doubled, reaching four hundred years.
You see,
When he previously broke through to the 10th rank and entered the position of a Great Earth Knight, his life essence was sublimated, and he only gained an additional hundred years of lifespan.
But just possessing a trace of the Golden Dragon bloodline directly grants him two hundred years.
You can imagine how terrifying the bloodline of the Golden Dragon clan is.
After adapting to his transformed body,
Rennes emerged from seclusion.
Upon hearing the news of her husband's emergence, all the women came forward.
In addition to their concern, they couldn't help but ask Rennes if he successfully broke through to become a Sky Knight.
Regarding this,
Rennes naturally said that he had failed to break through.
After all,
This was just an excuse he made earlier to seclude himself and refine the essence of the Golden Dragon.
It's not so easy to break through to become a Sky Knight.
Upon hearing this,
Janice and the others did not doubt it.
They immediately comforted Rennes.
And so, this matter passed.
Next.
Rennes has returned to its usual rhythm of life.
Every day, he plays with his children, accompanies his wife, and occasionally pays attention to the development of his territory.
Life is very leisurely and comfortable.
...
Ten days later.
The head of the Count Sika family, Count Berreg, suddenly came to visit.
Facing a noble of the same rank, Rennes couldn't neglect him.
He immediately put down his affairs and went to meet him.
The reception room.
After a formal exchange of greetings.
"Count Berreg, why did you suddenly come today?" Rennes straightforwardly asked.
"Count Rennes, I have good news to share with you," Berreg said with a smile.
"Good news?!" Rennes narrowed his eyes.
Instead of feeling surprised, he became more cautious.
After all, he didn't believe that good things would just fall from the sky.
"A few days ago, a large copper mine was discovered in the outskirts of the Warcraft Mountains..."
"I want to join forces with the Habs family to develop this large copper mine."
"If everything goes well, this large copper mine can bring us both hundreds of thousands of gold coins in annual income."
Seeing that Rennes was unmoved, Berreg immediately revealed the purpose of his visit.
After listening to Berreg's words.
Rennes suddenly understood everything.
This guy originally wanted to pull him in to snatch the rights to develop the copper mine.
Due to its unique geographical location, spanning multiple human nations and inhabited by a large number of high-level monsters.
The Monster Mountain Range does not actually belong to any country or anyone's territory.
Therefore.
That valuable large copper mine, legally speaking, has no owner.
Anyone can go and mine it.
Obviously, Count Berreg has the intention of using force to occupy this ownerless large copper mine.
As for why he wants to involve him.
Most likely, there are other powerful competitors who have also set their sights on this large copper mine.
"That large copper mine is located within the Monster Mountain Range, with numerous monster interferences, making mining very difficult."
"I'm not particularly interested in this."
Rennes immediately chose to politely decline.
He is not short of money.
The sugar and beer industries bring in a lot of money every day.
To get involved in a fight for this large copper mine is simply not worth it.
With that effort.
He might as well plant more crops and have more children.
Upon hearing Rennes' answer.
Berreg was somewhat surprised.
In his opinion.
Rennes should not have refused.
After all.
This is a win-win situation.
With the strength of the Sika family and the Habs family.
As long as they join forces, there is at least an 80% chance of taking down this large copper mine.
Such a huge benefit, Rennes did not hesitate to refuse?
This made him very puzzled.
"Baron Rennes, won't you reconsider?" Berreg couldn't help but speak again.
"No need!" Rennes shook his head.
Seeing Rennes' resolute refusal, Berreg could only choose to give up.
Exchanging a few words with Rennes.
Berreg left with his guards.
Unable to cooperate with Rennes.
Then he could only turn to other more powerful counts to try.
After Count Berreg left.
In a few days.
Several counts and viscounts came to visit.
These people also came for the matter of the large copper mine in the Warcraft Mountains.
Obviously, this unowned large copper mine has attracted the attention of most powerful nobles in the Rhine region.
In order to decide the ownership of the copper mine, a competition and fight is probably inevitable.
Seeing this.
Rennes directly chose to close the door and refuse guests.
As a man with a golden finger, he just wanted to live a peaceful life for a few days.
And have a few more children, and receive system rewards.
As long as it doesn't infringe on his and the Habsburg family's interests.
Noble disputes, resource grabbing, and other troublesome matters are things he is too lazy to get involved in.
