Chapter 246 (1/2)
The nobles in the major cities of the Ilus Empire suddenly found that, as if overnight, the price of magic crystal had completely collapsed.
Not only those merchants in the market are selling magic crystals, but also the largest shippers, the Kadir family, are crazy in their warehouses around the world. This situation not only did not allow speculators to take the opportunity to enter and sweep goods, but caused a chain reaction, and the market crash was faster.
”Have you heard? Master Jean of silver city has made a technological breakthrough, so the demand for magic crystal has greatly decreased!”
”Really?”
”Of course! That's why the market is saturated and the price is bloody, because it can't be sold!”
”The Kadir family monopolized the Magic Crystal Trading in the Ilus empire. More than 90% of the magic crystals are sold to the silver city. Now the silver city does not need to import magic crystals from the Ilus empire. It is estimated that the Kadir family will be miserable.”
”Ha, of course, the Kadir family can't sit still. I dare say that selling and clearing is only the first step. Then they must find a way to deal with those magic crystal mines. Now for them, those mines are a burden.”
”Aren't you going to take the opportunity to start a mine?”
”I don't have that spare money. Besides, the price of magic crystal is so low now. What if I buy the mine and lose money?”
”Also...”
Rumors in the market always spread quickly. Before Frank's decision came out, those who had a sensitive sense of smell had already noticed the future wind direction. Therefore, when Frank's people invited those people to participate in the auction, many people were as expected.
Even though they had no intention of buying the mine, Duke Frank still wanted to give face, so they still dressed up and attended the mine auction that day.
Familiar imperial nobles greeted each other with hypocritical smiles, carefully covered up the greedy and * * * * eyes of their female partners, maintained their so-called noble identity, and carefully tested the ideas of others
Aurelia, who attended the evening dress, was filled with disgust when she saw those people. In the years when she became a ”night song”, she had seen too many dirty faces of the nobles. Aurelia had no good feelings for them, whether public or private.
In private, Aurelia is a girl with rebellious character, otherwise she will not become a famous ”night song”. She knows all the dirty things that the nobles do in private. How can she have any good feelings for them?
Yu Gong, the aristocrats overhead the power of the royal family, forcing the Ilus royal family to choose the road of reform. When the royal family is unwilling to protect the interests of the aristocracy, the two sides are no longer a community of interests, but an enemy.
However, she is a princess after all. No matter how disgusted she is, she will look like a princess - not to mention that the annoying guy is right behind her. How can he underestimate himself!
”What's the matter?”
Fiona, who accompanied Donne to the scene, noticed that Donne's mood was a little strange.
”Nothing, just feeling... Well, it should be an illusion.”
Donne touched his nose. He just seemed to feel a familiar smell - it seemed to be from the night song - but on this occasion, even the bold night song, he didn't dare to break in openly?
”Welcome! Welcome, Baron Donne, who is this?”
”My friend and my financial assistant, Ms. Fiona.”
”Hello, Ms Fiona.”
Fiona smiled very gracefully, but took Donne's arm and didn't speak.
In fact, she is now trying to restrain her emotions and clinging to Donne's arm.
The Kadir family is one of the leaders of the aristocracy, that is, they also ”contributed” to the collapse of the golden rose family.
Frank was originally squinting. When he deliberately piled up a smiling face, it was even more exaggerated. He could hardly see his eyes, but because of this, people couldn't figure out his idea.
Frank said with a smile, ”I didn't expect Baron Donne to accept our invitation.”
”Of course.”
Donne deliberately smiled bitterly and said, ”the cadier family has a big business. I can't see this business. Ellington is so poor and so many people expect me to eat, so I have to gamble.”
Frank's eyes flashed: ”but don't you know the market situation of magic crystal, Baron Donne?”
”It's because I know that I need to bet.”
Donne had no choice but to show up: ”if the market hadn't collapsed, I wouldn't be able to enter the market.”
”Yes, I hope Baron Donne will be satisfied.”
Frank smiled and left.
”Princess Aurelia is all right, but who is that young man? He can let grand duke Frank meet him in person.”
”You don't know him? Lord Ellington, Baron Donne!”
”Ellington? Where?”
”To the west of the mountain city of bein, cross the hills of ladia.”
”There is territory in such a remote place!?”
”Of course! And now the Datang chamber of Commerce, which is in the limelight in Alex, is the industry under his name!”
”Datang chamber of Commerce! No wonder!”
