King
Chapter 601 - 601 142 The Assassination Case_1

601: Chapter 142, The Assassination Case_1 601: Chapter 142, The Assassination Case_1 Hudson nodded in satisfaction to the average price offered by the consortium.

It was slightly higher than his estimated price.

It was clear that everyone was showing respect.

128 million bonds cashed for 1.5 million gold coins, no matter how you look at it, it’s a windfall.

However, over 90 percent of the premium in this price is due to his position as commander.

In the rigid class structure of the Continent of Aslante, everyone now is a partner and in the future, most likely will still be partners.

That’s how circles are built.

For large consortium, doing business is always “politics first, business later”.

If you don’t understand this, even the biggest deal will be messed up.

The only regret is that this 1.5 million gold coins is also nominal wealth.

He will have to wait until everyone has sold the bonds before he can get the money.

Hudson is not worried about this.

If the Moxi People were to crash, it would not happen immediately.

At least the interest for this year is guaranteed.

Although the premium seems high, the interest payment time for some bonds is coming soon.

The latest in five months can also be cashed.

In just five months, you can cash in 160,000 in interest.

A premium of 220,000 gold coins does not seem unacceptable.

In the future, if a debt crisis erupts, only the last leftover-receivers will be the ones harmed, meanwhile no one knows how many times it has been changed hands.

If it wasn’t for the limited channels available to quickly liquidate a large amount of bonds, Hudson would not have sought the help of these consortium.

If all goes well, in the near future, the bond price of the Moxi Duchy will continue to rise in the capital market.

Savvy nobles will look for a reasonable time to cash out their war bonds.

In fact, aside from the war bonds of Moxi Duchy, Hudson also holds 500,000 war bonds of the Alpha Kingdom.

Buying these bonds is purely a political need, unrelated to economic benefits.

The King and major nobles, subscribed together.

He could have cashed it in together, but Hudson didn’t do that.

As a major noble of the Kingdom, he could not be optimistic about the Moxi Duchy, but he had to be optimistic about the Alpha Kingdom.

Even if the Kingdom’s finance is about to go bankrupt, the major nobles have to grit their teeth and stick with it.

It may seem tragic, but this is exactly what Hudson appreciates most.

If a nation’s ruling class can’t share hardships with the country, then the nation is doomed to not withstand any adversity.

The biggest significance of the trading platform is not how many benefits Hudson has gained, but it has stimulated the combat motivation of the Allied Forces.

In the past, people would kill enemies on the frontline mainly for show, to show off their bravery.

Now, there is an added reason – profit.

Other things can be illusory, but spoils of war are real.

Though the Orc Empire is generally poor, there are still wealthy individuals.

Ordinary Orcs may be poorly clothed, but this does not affect tribal leaders from being draped in silk.

Not only can goods be converted into cash, but slaves also make good money.

They used to be inconvenient to carry and had to be solved with a knife, now they are a profit upon capture.

Watching the Allied Forces rampage on the battlefield, the Kingdom’s Army is also eager to try.

However, Hudson forcefully suppressed everyone’s desire to make a fortune.

Defeating the Orc Empire, the Alpha Kingdom was originally the biggest winner.

If they also came out to snatch spoils with the allies, it would be too unsightly.

Moreover, the Allied Forces can rampage, because they are all elites from major forces.

The Kingdom Army is mostly made of serf soldiers.

Following and escorting grain and provisions is fine.

Going to the frontline to fight against the Orcs, what if they get counter-attacked by the enemy?

As the Commander of the Army, Hudson needs stability.

If the Allied Forces defeat the Orcs, his contribution to ensuring logistic supply for the army is guaranteed.

Even if they killed enemy generals, it would be after the Allied Forces had severely wounded the enemy’s main force, and then go to make up for it!

Beating a drowning dog, Hudson was the professional.

“Earl, up ahead is the old location of the Bimon Royal Court.

Unfortunately, those damn Bimons burned the camp before they evacuated, now all that’s left is a ruin!”

Upon hearing the introduction from Adjutant Jose, Hudson was speechless.

They had already forced the people to surrender and flee the Imperial Court, could they also expect them to leave their old capital politely?

Broken walls, a scene of desolation doesn’t matter, as long as the Bimon Royal Court is trodden underfoot, that would be a great strategic victory.

The logistic troops have moved all the way into Orcs’ court, the pace of the Allied Forces at the front line is even faster.

Based on the current progress, optimistically, they could occupy the Orc Prairie by the end of the year, forcing Orcs into the real cold land.

“It doesn’t matter, ruins are good!

The ruins are ready for demolition and reconstruction, this place is the Bimon Royal Court, so let’s keep it for now.

Who knows, His Majesty the King might feel like it and personally come take a look.

Send an order to Duke Cavadia, telling him that the food stored in Moonwind Port can now be transported.

Also leave a dock for the exclusive use of merchant ships.

Any merchant ship holding a pass issued by the headquarters can use this dock!”

You have to admit, the greatness of magic is powerful.

With current productivity levels, to clear the sea lanes would take years.
