The two mechanical grand masters from the Jadeite Forest, the elf Fenoya and the dwarf Berndt, left the Jinyao Territory.
It was said that the two visiting grand masters and the lord "Arthur" hit it off at first sight. They forged a friendship in the exchange of mechanics and promised to take out two works to participate in the upcoming auction in the Jinyao Territory.
This news made people look forward to the trade fair in the Jinyao Territory even more – the first sale of the Yellow Dragon Wine! The auction of the works of the three grand masters!
In a short period of time, more and more people poured into the Jinyao Territory. The hotels were all full. The businessmen who were the best at seizing the opportunity took the opportunity to launch a marketing strategy of reducing prices before the trade fair. Before the trade fair began, the entire market had already become popular.
The previous move of the former lord, the Second Prince, Royal Highness, to transfer a large number of talents had backfired. Most of the newly appointed personnel were "Arthur's" people. After a series of purges, the entire territory was firmly controlled by the new lord.
Garfield's conspiracy to take drastic measures had been completely shattered. This was a fair and square suppression. In the face of absolute strength, those tricks were simply a joke.
The Jinyao Territory, Prince Arthur, and the Yellow Dragon Wine had become the three most discussed terms in the Long Huang Empire. The Third Prince, who had returned after seven years of disappearance, had become the most popular figure in the Long Huang Empire.
Many families who were still observing couldn't hold back anymore. They went to the Jinyao Territory to visit or even submit. There were also many forces who were still holding back. This was actually an investment, a risky investment. The earlier they entered, the greater the trust and benefits they might gain, but the risk was also greater.
Soon, the triennial Human World Trade Conference began, and Dragon Bright Empire became the focus of all the human empires and kingdoms. Merchants from all over gathered in one place, and all kinds of goods dazzled one's eyes.
The host city this time was the second largest city in the Long Huang Empire, second only to Longwei City in Yerodisha. However, the glory of this main venue was completely overshadowed by the Jinyao Territory, one of the branch venues.
An auction held by the newly established Jinyao Auction House caused a sensation all over the world. The first free bidding was a first. A piece of Upper Legendary equipment produced by a Guru was auctioned off at a terrifyingly high price.
In addition to the final pieces of equipment made by the three grandmasters, there were also various eye-catching items in the auction, such as the treasures of the dragon race, the artworks of the elves, the 100% purity materials personally refined by Grandmaster "Arthur", the Ancient Civilization Battle Chess, the Diamond Chess, and so on. The entire auction site was in high spirits. The economic benefits created were enough to make any territory or even country look up to it.
This was only the first auction. Since the auction house had been established, such events would definitely continue in the future. In fact, after this, many territories and countries had begun to imitate Jinyao Territory to establish auction houses.
Subsequently, the main event of the trade fair, the Yellow Dragon Wine "Order Conference" was held, pushing the atmosphere of the entire trade fair to a climax. The first batch of "agents" was finalized. In addition to the Long Huang Empire, there were also several other large kingdoms such as the Rayo Empire, the Elves, and the Dwarves.
According to the plan announced in Jinyao Territory, the Yellow Dragon Wine would be gradually spread throughout the human world in an orderly manner. Many merchants who did not get orders received various levels of VIP cards, which allowed them to buy limited quantities of the best Yellow Dragon Wine at a discount and in excess. The VIP card with the highest authority also gave priority to the next batch of Yellow Dragon Wine orders.
With the help of the trade fair, the Jinyao Territory also introduced the concept of "Contribution Value", which could be reflected in the development of the Jinyao Territory in a numerical way. Contribution Value included several assessment criteria, covering various aspects such as commerce, agriculture, public security, and so on.
The higher the contribution value, the more benefits and benefits one could obtain. These benefits included many coveted aspects, and the VIP card for the Yellow Dragon Wine was one of them. There were also regular tax exemptions, tax reductions, auction rebates, auction VIP cards, and even priority selection of positions.
These measures greatly stimulated the development of the entire Jinyao Territory, and in a short time, everyone was stunned by the results. Less than two months after Chen Rui took over, the entire Jinyao Territory showed unprecedented prosperity and vitality, far exceeding the state under Garfield's rule.
Everyone could see that this was just the beginning.
Not to mention Garfield or Luke, even the most outstanding elites of the Empire's Government Council and the Financial Secretary could not compare to the Third Prince's ability in managing the territory.
Ziyuan Palace.
Garden.
His Royal Highness the Third Prince, "Arthur", was sitting in the newly built pavilion with Veronica, enjoying the flowers and chatting.
The garden was still beautiful, but the facilities and maids in the Ziyuan Palace were far better than when Chen Rui first came. The "treatment" was at least three times better, and Chen Rui could also enter and exit the Ziyuan Palace at will, because he had shown strength beyond expectations.
As Rex The Great said, everything could be used as a bargaining chip.
"Teacher, what do you think of this wine?"
Veronica put down the glass, and her face behind the veil seemed to blush. She praised, "It is indeed worthy of being the best wine that is popular in the world. Even in the depths of the palace, I have heard of the name 'Yellow Dragon Wine'. I heard that such a bottle of the best wine can be sold for hundreds of black crystal coins outside. "
"As long as teacher likes it, the rest is not a problem." Chen Rui smiled slightly, "This time I came in a hurry, so I only brought a few bottles for teacher to taste. I will send a few boxes over later."
Veronica shook her head, "No, I am not good at drinking. In contrast, I prefer the 'tea' you made last time."
"No problem, but only I can make it myself," Chen Rui said with a smile, "Teacher, please suffer for a while. I will work harder and strive to let teacher leave this place where you are not free as soon as possible. At that time, teacher can drink the tea I made every day."
"Leave?" Veronica's blue eyes were slightly hazy, and she sighed, "Little Arthur, thank you for your kindness, but … my identity is a little special after all. Don't think too much about it. Now you should focus on dealing with the affairs of the estate."
"Teacher, don't worry. The development of the estate is quite good now. Garfield's tricks have long become a laughing stock." Chen Rui sneered, "Actually, Garfield's tricks are fine, but this guy actually dared to be rude to teacher. I will never let him off easily! Teacher, please rest assured. "
When Chen Rui said this, he kept looking at Veronica's eyes. When mentioning Garfield, Veronica frowned and showed a look of disgust, but her emotions did not change at all, just like her silent and unmoving heart.
Even Chen Rui found it difficult to capture her true emotional changes.
"Forget it, didn't you say that he has already received that kind of punishment?" Veronica sighed, "Let's not talk about this first. You seem to be a little carried away now. Although I don't know much about politics, after all, I have stayed in the palace for so long and have seen many things. If you want to survive in this kind of struggle and even go further, you must remember one word: caution. Even if you are outstanding and far surpass all the competing princes, don't forget that there is still His Majesty above you. This is the most important point that cannot be ignored, understand? "
Chen Rui showed a look of surprise. This surprise was not completely fake. He did not expect Veronica to say such words. In fact, his real purpose was not to surpass the "competitors" like Garfield and Luke, but to surpass Rex, the Great Emperor of Dragon Brilliance, the emperor who could use himself as a bargaining chip.
"I understand, teacher." Chen Rui nodded. No matter what, Veronica's words were very pertinent.
"Since you understand, don't waste all your time here in the future." Veronica looked at him deeply, "Let's be frank, Little Arthur, I have always understood your feelings. But, I am really not suitable for you. "
"Is it because you were the victim of that damned political marriage … or conspiracy?" Chen Rui clenched his fists, "So what if you are Uncle Arthur's wife? Not to mention that the old guy is already dead, even if he is still alive, I will not give up. As long as I have absolute power and strength, everything will be justifiable! I did not have this ability in the past, but now, I do! "
"No, even if you really become the supreme ruler of the entire empire in the future, I will only be your teacher and sister, or even … nothing. If you really respect me, don't ever cross that line, okay? "
"Teacher, you still don't understand." Chen Rui sighed and did not avoid her direct gaze. He pointed at his heart, "No matter in the heart of this fellow 'Arthur', whether he sees you as a teacher, sister or something else, there is one thing that has never changed, and that is love."
Veronica's gaze was a little frozen. At this moment, Chen Rui clearly felt that there seemed to be a slight tremble in his silent heart.
"A relative once told me that if you like someone, you hope to live happily with her forever; and if you love someone, even if you don't have yourself, you also hope that the other party will live happily. 'Little Arthur' doesn't know what the teacher experienced in the past, and doesn't even know what the teacher is thinking in the heart now. 'He' simply hopes that the teacher can be happy — no matter whether he can have Veronica Roland Sieber or not … no, it has nothing to do with all the damn surnames, just 'Veronica'. "
Veronica trembled and lowered her head, as if she did not want Chen Rui to see her eyes. The fluctuation of the mood became more obvious.
This was the true intention of the pure Little Arthur in the past, and also the strong desire left in his consciousness. Only true feelings could cause the heart to be touched.
A teardrop dropped from her drooping face to the ground, and it quickly seeped into the soil and disappeared.
"What if … the teacher asks you to leave this place, far away from the Long Huang Empire?"
Chen Rui's heart skipped a beat, but he frowned, "Why?"
Veronica did not answer. She lowered her head and did not speak.
"It seems that the teacher is not feeling well today. I will leave first." After a long while, Chen Rui stood up, "I can feel that there is a shackle in the teacher's heart. I will definitely unlock it, even if I have to pay everything."
It was not until Chen Rui's figure completely disappeared from her sight that the faint voice sounded.
"Little Arthur … you are wrong. There is no shackle in my heart, because I no longer have a heart, not even a soul."
She slowly raised her head, and the tears had already evaporated.
Her blue eyes were filled with indifference and … destruction.
