632: Chapter 154, Fire Dragon Burns the Barn_3 632: Chapter 154, Fire Dragon Burns the Barn_3 “Viscount, don’t worry too much.

If the Hollis family only has such a shortage, as long as we are willing to invest money, it shouldn’t be hard to fill the gap!”

He seemed to be comforting, but he was actually setting boundaries for everyone.

It was clear that he could find a way to provide the materials, but everyone must pay for them.

Hudson wants to extend his favours, but he also wants to make some money.

The price is still market price, except for the fact that because of his relationship, they can get the goods in the shortest time.

“Hudson, we’ve put you in a tough spot.

To be honest, I went around the trading center, all the major associations are out of goods.

Even if there are some stocks, not anyone can buy them.

This time you might have to pay a larger favor!”

The words of Viscount Orlan made Hudson very comfortable.

Clearly, his father-in-law had grasped the insinuations in his words and was deliberately assisting him on the stage.

Nobles who thought of gaining some cheap goods by using their connections changed their minds at this point.

Under supply shortage, getting goods with favors is something one cannot afford to hope for cheap goods, it would be too ungracious.

In the world of nobles, the most expensive thing is always a favor debt, and the more important one is, the more stingy they are in owing favors.

“We are all family, these are things we should do.

Viscount, you don’t need to take these things to heart.

Everyone say your situation, as long as it can help, Hudson will do his best.

Tom, bring paper and pen to take notes!”

The moment his words landed, many nobles who understood the insinuation, their faces turned bitter.

It is expected that family members should help, and those who are not family should naturally talk about profit exchange.

While all are favors, the favors extended by Hudson and their favors are not on the same level.

Among the present nobles, they can indeed be linked with the Koslow Family, but the relationships of most are too distant.

He can’t even name two-thirds of the nobles present, let alone know what their backgrounds are.

If they follow, whether they can enter his camp or not is an unknown.

After all, the threshold to the Marshal’s Camp is naturally high.

As the nobles continued to announce their clans and material shortages, Hudson’s face gradually became worse.

He didn’t know where these guys got their courage from, some fools with no strength or connections, but dared to learn to resell military supplies.

It’s fine if they can’t help reaching out but they’re also greedy.

There are as many as seven clans whose deficit exceeds the Hollis family’s.

Looking at the accumulated list, Hudson said unhappily, “Everyone’s material gap has been calculated.

I can’t guarantee that all can be bought.

You are all very clear about the rules of the black market.

There is no credit here, prepare the money first!

To avoid trouble, I will arrange meetings for you with the representatives of the major associations tomorrow morning.

The situation now, everyone has a rough idea, everything is determined by the seller, the buyer does not have the right to bargain!”

It’s okay if you have no money, Hudson has it!

But of course, he won’t say it.

If they want him to pay in advance, that also requires a price.

As for what they need to pay, it depends on what everyone has.

We are all nobles, Hudson is not afraid of everyone denying the bill.

If they really can’t repay, isn’t there still fief?

Annexing the fiefdom is impossible, but as a creditor, taking away fiefdom’s revenue is reasonable.

…

“The four of you, the situation is not good now, it seems that the associations in the trading center are deliberately targeting us!

They have accepted orders from others, and when it comes to our orders, they suddenly ran out of goods!”

The Duke of Yagailong intentionally glanced at Duke Cavadia and Duke Pias as he spoke.

This situation is most likely due to these two.

Who made them propose to confiscate the black market when they were targeting Hudson?

They pulled such a big hatred, still want to buy goods from others, there is a problem if they are not targeted.

Unfortunately, these two are also bitter and unspeakable now.

They thought they could force Hudson to give up the black market by pressuring him with others.

However, the plan was good, but new problems arose during the specific execution.

Hudson is closely connected to the black market, and the many important nobles in the allied forces also have a close relationship with the black market.

But this matter, is ultimately something that cannot be openly discussed.

If everyone works together, it is not impossible to confiscate, but unfortunately, everyone is not as united as they thought.

When it was learned that the black market was short of supplies, only the nobles on the front line of the coalition army could cooperate, hoping to fill the gap in supplies, everyone immediately dropped.

While all are embezzling and reselling military supplies, the situations faced by everyone are completely different.

Not all major nobles are greedy, digging into their own bowls.

Most of the nobles are restrained, the gap is not big, and procurement batch materials can fill the gap.

There is no need to take risks with them.

“Businessmen seek profit, deliberately targeting us, but they want to raise the price by this way!

The fear is that they really have no goods in their hands now, not just targeting us.

In this case, we can only do our best.

If we simply can’t fill the gap, then we can only…

It is best not to take this step.

Even if you do it, no matter how clean it is, it is hard to guarantee that it will not be discovered.”

Duke Cavadia said gloomily.

This time he was tricked by Hudson.

If Hudson hadn’t been indulgent for a long time, allowing him to relax his vigilance, he would never have been led by the nose so easily.

“Pias, the front line said that a dragon attacked your Rocknard clan, did you find out who it is?

If it really comes to the last step, this dragon may be useful!”

The words of Duke Dias seemed to open a new window for everyone.

If they deliberately cause an accident, it will easily be discovered that they leaked the news, but what if a real accident happens?
