"Pollitt, right?" Li Huailin pulled Pollitt over with a smile and said, "How is it? How's the De 'an Chamber of Commerce doing?"
"Thanks to Sir, everything is going well for the De 'an Chamber of Commerce." Pollitt was immediately flattered. The De 'an Chamber of Commerce wasn't just doing well, it was like the sun in the sky. Even during the era of Marquis Filmus, the De' an Chamber of Commerce wasn't as prosperous as it was now. In the past, it was only within the borders of the human empires that everyone respected the De 'an Chamber of Commerce. Now, it wasn't just within the borders of the human empires. Everyone on the entire continent dared to disrespect the De' an Chamber of Commerce.
"It's going well? That's good … "Li Huailin nodded." In that case, does the De 'an Chamber of Commerce have a lot of liquid funds now? "
"Eh?" Pollitt thought about it. Since it was his Lord who knew about the operation of the De 'an Chamber of Commerce, he nodded. "Yes, there aren't any major problems with funds recently. Does Sir Duke need funds recently? Our De 'an Chamber of Commerce will definitely raise them for you immediately. How much do you need, Sir? "
"No, no, no. I don't need funds. However, I need to buy something recently," said Li Huailin.
"Oh, that's no problem. What do you need, Sir? I, Pollitt, will definitely get it for you." Pollitt patted his chest and said.
"Oh, it's like this. I need pet eggs that are gold quality and above," said Li Huailin.
"Pet eggs that are gold quality and above …" Pollitt was slightly troubled because it wasn't easy to get them. It wasn't that he lacked money, but that he might not be able to buy them even if he had the money. The production of these things was just too low.
"Get me a hundred …" continued Li Huailin.
"Pfft …" Pollitt almost spat out a mouthful of blood. What kind of situation was this? He was already having a headache just getting one. What was with a hundred of them?
"What's wrong?" asked Li Huailin curiously when he saw Pollitt's expression that was about to be scared to death.
"My … My Lord, a hundred golden pet eggs, are you trying to kill me?" Pollitt said, "The entire continent produces less than a hundred golden pet eggs in an entire year, and most of the shares are taken away by Pet Home. It's already very impressive for a Chamber of Commerce to be able to get a few."
"Can't you get it?" Li Huailin's expression immediately changed. "What's the use of having you? You're just thinking about getting rich. Can't you do anything when I use you?"
"This …" His words were a little too serious. Paulette hurriedly knelt down. "Your Grace, this … this is true. If it's just a few, I can still think of a way. But if it's a hundred, I really can't do anything. Even if I go bankrupt, I can't get a hundred."
"Really?" Looking at Paulette's expression, Li Huailin believed him a little. Thinking about how fierce he was now, Paulette would not play tricks on him. Hence, he said, "Tell me, what's going on? Let's talk on the way. "
"Yes … My Lord." Paulette stood up and followed Li Huailin to the Duke's Mansion while explaining the situation to Li Huailin.
"Right now, Pet Homeland is the only organization on the continent that has mastered the breeding technology of Magical Beasts, so Pet Homeland owns more than 80% of the continent's pet eggs. The remaining pet eggs are basically wild and can only be obtained through luck. Generally speaking, they are obtained by Adventurer's Guilds. As far as I know, there are less than 100 Gold Eggs per year, and 80% of them are owned by Pet Homeland. Obtaining a Gold Pet Egg is an S-rank quest in a Mercenary Guild. Just setting up the quest requires at least 100,000 Gold Coins. This isn't a quest that an ordinary mercenary group can accept, so it's hard to say when it will be completed …" Porter explained to Li Huailin as they walked.
"I see. It's so difficult to obtain a golden pet egg." Li Huailin said. No wonder Seckard said that this egg was a secret treasure of their Chamber of Commerce. It wasn't easy for such a private Chamber of Commerce to obtain a golden pet egg.
"That's right, my Lord. If you want it, I'll do my best to get it for you. However, it definitely won't be as many as a hundred. Right now, I can lock onto about three to four targets. I'll do my best to obtain these few, and the rest will depend on luck. Of course, I'll also issue quests to the Adventurer's Guild and Mercenary's Guild," Paulette said after some thought.
"So that's how it is …" Li Huailin nodded. "Then start collecting as much information as you can about these pet eggs. Note down all of them. If you can't get them, I'll get them myself."
"Yes, my Lord." Paulette nodded.
"Speaking of which, how strong is this Pet Home?" Li Huailin suddenly asked.
"My Lord, are you thinking about Pet Home?" Paulette was shocked. The Duke was really capable of doing anything. He immediately said, "My Lord, that won't do. Pet Home's strength isn't ordinary. They have service points all over the continent, and their headquarters is on Pet Island in the southeast of the continent. It's surrounded by the sea, making it impossible to attack. Moreover, they also have a large number of magical beasts. I heard that they have sea monsters and giant dragons. This is definitely not an ordinary organization."
"Oh, so powerful?" Thinking about it, this group of people was really powerful. They could even raise pets to such great strength. However, as long as he controlled them, his pets would have an unlimited number of pet eggs to eat. Li Huailin nodded. Although he didn't say anything, he had already made a small note in his mind. If there was a chance, he would get this Pet Home.
"Then start the activity on your side. Get me as many as you can," Li Huailin said.
"Yes, my Lord, this subordinate will try his best." Paulette immediately said. This matter wasn't easy to handle, but he had no other way. After all, he was relying on Li Huailin's forces to survive on the continent. If he couldn't do a good job and was kicked out by Li Huailin, his enemies would never let him go.
As they talked, the two had already walked to the door of the Duke's Mansion. Li Huailin looked up and saw that Ceci was already standing at the door waiting for him. There were also several ministers standing behind Ceci.
"Your Excellency the Duke!" The ministers greeted him together.
"My Lord." Ceci also bowed slightly to greet him. She had the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
"Damn, why are you all standing at the door waiting? Is there any activity today?" Li Huailin asked curiously.
"No, I just heard from the guards that you appeared in the business district of the city. We knew that you were probably coming back soon. Everyone discussed and prepared to welcome you." Ceci said.
"Oh, I see." Li Huailin nodded. "Alright, everyone has a meeting. I still have to see Anthony later."
"See His Royal Highness? Is there something important? "Oliveira asked.
"Oh, we'll talk about this later during the meeting." Li Huailin said.
"This … Who is this young lady?" Ceci suddenly pointed at Nemoya behind Li Huailin and asked. Because Nemoya had already changed her body, the people here had never seen this new body, especially Ceci, who was the second wife. When she saw this young and beautiful Nemoya, she immediately became vigilant.
"Eh?" Li Huailin looked at Nemoya behind him. "Oh, this is … Anyway, she's one of us. Help her arrange a place to stay."
"One of us?" The cabinet ministers looked at each other. Could it be the third wife? Then they nodded without changing their expressions.
"Ugh …" Ceci was obviously a little unhappy. It was obvious that she also misunderstood. How could the Duke be so promiscuous? When he went out, he brought back a beautiful woman. But as the Duchess, Ceci still had this awareness. She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it."
Soon, Nemoya was arranged. Then everyone gathered in the conference room. Several cabinet ministers and Li Huailin sat together at the main table. Ceci sat behind Li Huailin and listened. This time, Pollitt also sat in the corner of the room and listened.
"What, the rebel army of the former King Rein?" Hearing what Li Huailin said, everyone in the conference room was shocked.
"Yeah, although the enemy seems to be developing in the south, west, and west of the empire, it's possible that they'll show up in our territory. So, we must keep an eye out and see if there are any similar situations. We must investigate our territory seriously," Li Huailin said.
"Sir Lord, please rest assured. I will pay attention to this," Minister of Internal Affairs Geert immediately said.
"That's right, Geert, there will be a group of people coming to our territory soon. The leader is called Semar. Pay attention. If they come, make arrangements for them to stay. I have something for them to do," Li Huailin said as he thought of this matter.
"Yes, Sir Lord." Geert nodded.
"Sir Lord, since the former King Rein organized a rebel army, doesn't this mean that war is about to break out again?" Legg asked.
"Maybe." Li Huailin said. "So, train the military well. Don't relax. Also, check the people in the army. Don't find any rebel army sneaking in."
"Yes, Sir. I have already checked carefully," Legg replied.
"Gwenis, spread out your intelligence network. Report any news of the rebel army to me immediately. If I am not here, find someone to inform me," Li Huailin said to Gwenis of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"Yes, Sir Lord," Gwenis replied. "With Lord Pollitt's assistance, my work will be very easy to carry out."
"Does anyone have anything else to add? I still have to go to the palace. If there is nothing else, let's end the meeting early, "Li Huailin said.
"Yes, I do." Unexpectedly, Ceci suddenly raised his hand.
