Chapter 549: Voting certificate

Renault spent a lot of time in making the skull monument for two main purposes.

The first purpose, of course, is to show off force.

The troubled times have come, and nothing can unite people's hearts more than powerful force. The reason why these nobles are willing to endure Renault's frequent "extortion" is not because of the force against the Legion of Roses?

Otherwise, they will be full and have nothing to find an ancestor to ride on their heads?

It now appears that the effect of this trick is very good.

The visual effect of the Skull Stele is more intuitive and more impactful. The nobles heard that when Renault annihilated more than 30,000 black orcs in the two wars, the vibration in their hearts was far less than seeing more than 8,000 skulls in front of them. The huge shock.

Renault clearly noticed that the awe on the faces of the nobles became stronger.

The second purpose is to sell cement.

To be precise, it is to sell shares in the "cement factory" to be built to the nobles.

If the cement were displayed separately, these nobles would be deeply surprised by this "turning mud into stone" trick, but they would never imprint the word "cement" deeply into their minds as they are now.

From today on, as long as they think of the Black Orcs, they will naturally think of this towering skull monument, and then they will think of the material used to build the skull monument-cement.

In addition, this stone monument is the first skull monument ever, and it is destined to become a landmark in Chaka Town, and even the landmark of the entire Thousand Lake Kingdom.

The huge advertising effect it brings can easily spread the reputation of cement to every inch of land in the kingdom, even to the Xinghai continent far south. Once the cement factory is put into production, there will be no worries about sales.

Renault looked around and started talking.

"Everyone, regarding the concrete effect of cement, I believe everyone has seen it..."

He turned around and patted the skull monument.

"How long does it take to build this skull monument with stones? It takes at least 2 months from mining the stone, carving it into regular-shaped stones, then transporting them back, and finally building it into a stone monument. ."

"But what if you use cement?"

Renault's voice grew louder.

"As you can see, we only spent three short days. The first day was used to build the steel frame, and the second day was to pour the cement. By the third day, that is today, it has become a sword. A stone monument that can't be cut..."

There was a buzzing sound in the crowd of onlookers, and all the nobles were excited and unbearable, and their eyes looked at Renault with fiery eyes.

There is no concealment about the construction process of the Skull Stele, and everyone in Chaka Town is watching it.

Except for the day when more than 8,000 skulls were inlaid, the townspeople were terrified. Few people dared to watch. At any other time, the square where the stele was built was crowded.

The nobles are very concerned about the actions of Chaka Town, and they are also very aware of this.

These monkey spirit monkey spirit guys competed one by one with cleverness. Before the skull monument had completely solidified, they realized the huge prospect of cement.

It can build stone monuments, so naturally it can also build cities and roads, or build houses, build piers, and wait for dams. It has a wide range of uses. They fully understand how great the wealth represented by these gray powders is.

In the Thousand Lake Kingdom alone, the annual demand for cement is tens of millions of tons. As time goes by, it will only be a matter of time before it expands to ten million tons.

Even according to the current price in the Haichao Territory, which is the low price of 30 silver nars/ton, the annual sales will reach 1 million kinnals or more, and it will not be difficult to reach 3 million or even 5 million kinnals in the future. .

Because of the fear of Renault's force, no one had dared to use their brains before. Everyone could only watch from the sidelines, and at the same time, the eyes were dripping with jealousy.

Two days ago, when the Haichao Chamber of Commerce issued an invitation letter called "Subscription for Cement Factory Shares" to a group of nobles who "sponsored" the Rose Legion, the noble circle made a sensation.

No one is a fool. Everyone knows that his behavior is simply giving money. As long as he can buy shares in a cement factory, he will definitely be able to make a fortune, especially lying down and making a fortune.

Where to look for this rare opportunity in ancient and modern times?

Therefore, as long as it is a nobleman who can still breathe, one who can't pull it all comes.

Looking at these wealthy people, Renault smiled slightly and said loudly:

"Everyone, with regard to the shares of the cement plant, Haichaoling has a 60% stake by virtue of cement manufacturing technology, and the Duke of Castro has a 5% stake by virtue of the limestone mine in the territory..."

After hearing the words "Duke of Castro", any noble with a little more flexible mind can understand the subtext within seconds.

As we all know, due to the sudden invasion of the Black Orcs, the position of the Duke of Castro has been hanging up in the air, but the coronation deliberately mentioned the Duke of Castro, and said that the Duke must have 5% of the shares.

Isn't this funny? The new generation of Duke of Castro has not yet been born. Who will claim this share?

Then, the meaning of Mianxia is very obvious.

Want to participate in this feast of wealth? No problem, wait for Miss Arrietty to become Duchess. If this young lady does not become Duchess, you will drool one more day.

Before Renault's words were finished, the impatient nobles yelled.

"Under the crown, please rest assured, we will definitely help Miss Alietti to obtain the title of Duke of Castro as soon as possible..."

"Yes, under the crown, Miss Arrietty led the Rose Legion and defeated the Black Orcs army. She is the well-deserved heir to the Duke..."

Renault ignored these guys and continued on his own:

"...The remaining 35% of the shares will be divided into 70 shares, each 0.5% of which will be sold to the public. There are only three detailed subscription terms..."

The crowd was silent for a moment, and everyone's ears were erected, listening attentively to Renault's next words.

"First, we will sell the shares by auction. The starting price is 5,000 Kinnars. The bidders can buy at least 1 copy and can only buy 3 copies at most."

As soon as this sentence came out, there was a commotion in the crowd. Some people were disappointed, while others were surprised. The former were wealthy aristocrats, and the latter were dominated by shy little aristocrats.

Because the maximum number is limited, it means that the "poor" have more opportunities.

"Article 2, among all the nobles who have funded the Legion of Roses, the top 20 gentlemen in the amount of funding will enjoy the priority right to subscribe if the bid is the same!"

After a pause, Renault seriously added:

"I always think that generous people deserve enough rewards!"

As soon as this sentence came out, some of the stingy guys immediately thumped their chests and sighed, and the nobles like Carrick Byron who paid a lot of money suddenly burst into laughter on their faces.

"Article 3, bidders must sign an agreement. All shareholders of the cement factory must earnestly safeguard the interests of the factory. Once there is any behavior that harms the interests of the factory, the factory has the right to..."

Renault emphasized his tone and said loudly:

"Confiscate all shares!"

The crowd was in an uproar.

This clause is simply a "voting certificate."

Mianxia occupies 60% of the shares. The so-called "factory interests" are not the interests of Mianxia?

Therefore, the meaning of this article is blunt, that is, every shareholder of the factory must stand firmly on the side of the crown, and make money with the crown, otherwise it will lose at least 5,000 kinnals in vain.

Even for a wealthy nobleman like the Duke of Byron, 5,000 Kinnars is not a small number.

In other words, as long as the shares are purchased, it means that they are on the thief ship under the crown and can only follow one path to the dark.
