Chapter 83 – Episode 83 the Magic Tower
Jeffrey brought in his three siblings and even Jason this time.
And this time, he brought up the word that the Wolf family had decided to compete with the Imperial family for the Black Magic Tower.
“So how much money do you think the royal family will spend?”
Jeffrey asked.
My eyes went to Thaleia, who runs a brothel.
It was easier than other businesses to gather information about brothels.
Taleia had prepared a report in advance, probably because she had heard from Jeffrey in advance.
It was information she secretly obtained from a member of the imperial family who was drunk and prowling around in the salon.
“I’m estimating around 230 million gold.”
“Are you sure?”
It was a much larger number than what Geoffrey had talked to Demeter about.
Tigris said.
“Isn’t that too expensive? At best, it’s a magic tower. Besides, there are no superhuman wizards. 230 million gold. It’s not some kid’s joke.”
Then Daphne, the sorceress, helped Taleia.
“It’s a drug. I bring things from overseas and just sell them. The Magic Tower is different. Do you know how easy it is to make magic tools? Magic swords don’t come out of nowhere just because you have the ingredients. All kinds of magic tools are needed to make one magic sword. In addition, 230 million is enough if you try to stop the wizards who are trying to transfer from the Black Mage Tower to another Mage Tower with money.”
Jeffrey sided with his two daughters.
“She can make and use the magic tools she needs. With this alone, the emperor wants to own the mage tower. There are no superhuman wizards, but advanced wizards remain. It means you can make pretty much anything. 230 million? There’s a possibility So how much money should we spend?”
Her three siblings shut her mouth.
230 million gold was never an easy amount.
It was a terrifying amount of money even for the three siblings of the Wolf family who used money like water.
They each worried about how much their father wanted the Mage Tower.
As their troubles grew longer, Geoffrey asked the smart Daphne.
“How much do you think we should spend?”
“200 million gold. That would be the limit.”
“It’s the limit. Even if you gather all the strength of the Wolf family. Is that the end of the money?”
“For a while, reduce the Wolf family’s expenses as much as possible. If you borrow money from rich people with connections. You should be able to collect about 200 million gold. And with the entire income of the Wolf family, the borrowed money will be able to be repaid reliably. That is 200 million gold.”
“Then, if you overdo it, you can save more money, right?”
“Struggling is the opposite. The imperial family attracts money from all over the empire. We shouldn’t compete purely for money.”
“Then what are you going to do? Do you just want to watch others buy such good stuff? Daphne, don’t you know how good it is to have a magic tower?”
Daphne, the sorceress, knew it best.
You can separately craft magic tools needed for specific dungeons.
Consumables that constantly go into every dungeon can be mass-produced cheaply.
The value of the mage tower was great.
Both the Imperial family and the Wolf family had separate wizards, but compared to the Mage Tower, they were no different from corner shops.
Said Jeffrey.
“If you overdo it, you can overdo it. You can sell the drug distribution network. You can sell drug farms abroad. You can sell a brothel with a low income.”
Her three siblings lowered her head and hid her expression.
He knew that the mage tower was important, but he did not want to let go of what he was holding in his hands.
Jeffrey said to Daphne.
“If the Wolf family manages the Mage Tower properly, calculate how much it will benefit. If it is a magic tower, it will be able to have a good influence on the existing drug, brothel, and mercenary work.”
“All right.”
Among the things Jeffrey said he could sell, the hounds were missing.
Geoffrey, after all, has the greatest respect for those who can fight.
If so, Daphne, who has a hound, could make that calculation calmly.
Tigris raised his hand and said.
He couldn’t have deprived Daphne of everything like this.
“Let’s go for 250 million gold.”
Fortunately, Jeffrey was interested.
“With what money?”
“The Wolf family’s drug distribution is simple. Create and import drugs from overseas and distribute them across your empire. Only the capital distributes drugs directly, and the rest is sold to small and medium-sized drug dealers. Those drug dealers will have the money.”
“Are you going to beat the people who bought our drugs up until now?”
“At most, they are just city thugs. After defeating them, the branch of the Wolf family can control the drugs themselves. Or you can watch the other thugs come forward.”
It was a terrible plan.
It was a plan that came about in haste because he did not want to lose his father’s favor.
But Jeffrey liked the plan.
Drugs were, after all, a way to make money, and Tigris had been doing it on his own until now.
Jeffrey only needed to have the money Tigris gave him.
“Also. Even if it’s like this. The eldest son is the eldest son.”
When Jeffrey laughed, he laughed like T-Christ.
The study was filled with laughter.
And Daphne and Thalaia couldn’t help but laugh.
Today’s meeting ended here.
“Tigris, Daphne, and Taleia, go out. I called this in case I needed the money from the youngest child’s nose, but I don’t think it’s necessary.”
The three siblings kept each other in check and went out of the study.
Now that they only had one city, Jason wasn’t worth their attention.
Jeffrey said to Jason who was left in the study.
“You have seen the true face of the Wolf family. How are you?”
Jason was surprised in many ways.
Now he was ruling the underworld of Sanburnique and amassing wealth that even ordinary nobles could not imagine, simply by selling love gel.
But the Wolf family was more than that.
Just as the Emperor collects taxes from all over the country, the Wolf family also collects money from all over the country.
It was not an ordinary thug family.
It was like watching a large corporation operating on the world stage.
200 million gold.
I didn’t expect to hold a meeting with such an amount.
“200 million gold. It’s not easy money for me either. How is it Jason. Do you have any other thoughts?”
What Jason has shown so far has been great.
He became a mid-level adventurer faster than anyone else and was successful in business.
But that was only at the city level after all.
To be a superman was to move against the world.
If he was strong enough alone, he would only be at the level of the emperor’s dog.
Geoffrey Wolf was not the emperor’s dog.
He is a bit behind the emperor, but he is still a superman standing on his shoulders.
And the successor he hoped for was also such a human being.
Jeffrey told Jason he was just seeing if he could be that kind of person.
Jason chose his answer carefully.
‘It shouldn’t be difficult to think that the size has increased.’
He learned that principle while working as a gangster in Korea.
The basics were the same whether you were doing business with 3 ladies or when you were doing business with 100 people.
You shouldn’t go out of your mind for 200 million gold and do something different from what you normally do.
It’s a difficult job, but Jason, who has grown from a small business to a business that dominates Seoul, was able to do it.
“In the end, isn’t a transaction made when the buyer wants to buy and the seller wants to sell?”
Jeffrey laughed.
It was a bigger laugh than when Tigris showed aggressiveness.
“The minds of those who want to buy now are ready. Then we can make the wizards of the Black Mage Tower want to sell it to us.”
“Would that be worth tens of millions of gold?”
“Yes. For some, it’s money to play and eat for the rest of their lives. But isn’t that money worth spending on someone?”
And Jeffrey said as if he was sorry.
“Other children only see the trees, but don’t know how to see the forest. I tried to collect it just in case. The youngest is better.”
It seems that this was also his father’s test.
“Okay. Then if you have more than 200 million gold coins. How will you claim the Black Mage Tower? To stick with the emperor.”
“I haven’t seen the Emperor yet, so it’s hard to answer clearly now. Give us a little time and we’ll come up with a plan.”
“Haha. No. You are not yet at the level of participating in this level of work. Just work hard on what you do. And watch how this father gets his hands on the Black Mage Tower.”
“All right.”
Meanwhile, Jason had other thoughts.
Clearly, getting one of the magic towers will be of great benefit to the Wolf family.
But I didn’t like it completely.
It was like having to share the benefits with other older brothers and sisters.
“Okay. Is raiding the dwarf dungeon going well these days?”
“There is a mutant monster in the middle, so we are thinking about how to deal with it.”
“Okay. It’s a dungeon that no one has explored yet, so if you go to the end, you’ll get a lot.”
**
Jason had a conversation with his entourage.
The other women’s jaws dropped at the staggering scale.
No matter how much money adventurers made, the number of 200 million gold had never been heard.
Spear, who originally worked for the Wolf family, did not know that the place she was in was so huge.
Spear barely calmed down and said.
“As expected, the Wolf family rules the dark side of the empire. So, are we just watching this time?”
“No. It’s a magic tower. I am interested in it.”
