Chapter 1010: Chapter 353: An Unexpected Harvest (Double-Length Chapter) (Part 4)

This represents a huge business opportunity with a steady stream of gold production.

“Lord Rein, there’s just one more issue to resolve, the smelting issue,” Luther said with a smile.

“Perhaps this issue…”

Rein waved his hand and said, “Smelting is no problem!”

“Lagaray, can we leave the smelting issue to the Norton Tribe? Of course, it’s not for free; the Norton Tribe will get its share of the profits,” Rein said with a smile, turning to the barbarian girl Lagaray beside him.

“Ah? This… of course!” Lagaray was stunned, clearly feeling as if a pie had fallen from the sky and hit her.

She hadn’t expected Rein to entrust such a lucrative opportunity to her Norton Tribe, and she gazed at Rein with increasingly affectionate eyes.

Both the Chimera Knight Luther and the people from Winterfort Academy were sharp and immediately understood Rein’s intentions upon seeing his attitude toward the barbarian girl Lagaray.

They no longer said anything.

Meanwhile, Merita gazed at Rein, her beautiful eyes almost drawing strings.

Oh my! Lord Rein is powerful, handsome, and takes good care of others.

It’s over! It’s over! She felt she had completely fallen…

“Everyone, it seems we can have a good discussion about the utilization of the gold mine,” Rein said with a slight smile.

“Of course!” Everyone nodded in agreement.

…

With Lord Rein, their savior, leading the negotiations, the framework was quickly agreed upon.

It was initially decided that several parties would jointly be responsible for the mining, transportation, and sale of the gold mine.

Generally, mining was to be handled by the white-furred bear monsters on Rein’s side, the Norton Barbarians would build blast furnaces and smelt outside the nests, Winterfort Academy would send people for transportation and escort, and the Snyder family’s Luther would handle the final sales.

The Snyder Duke was the Governor of Marn Province, and Luther was the second son of the Snyder Duke.

As for the profit share, Rein took 40%, and the other three each took 20%.

After finalizing the main framework, Rein sent a message to the beautiful woman Jennifer, asking her to send specialists to handle the details.

After all, he couldn’t spend his precious energy on business affairs.

…

“What! That’s great, I didn’t expect the Black Flame Cult’s Great Priest Erikson in Marn Province had already fallen at your hands, Lord Rein, I’m truly grateful,” Luther exclaimed with joy.

He had just learned of this news.

It’s important to know that Erikson’s strength faintly surpassed his own, which was why three counties in Marn Province had fallen without action from the Snyder family.

Primarily, the Snyder family lacked the ability to independently deal with the entrenched Black Flame Cult in Marn Province before the Imperial Guardian’s arrival.

“I will immediately communicate with my father and quickly organize elite forces to pacify these three counties.” Luther looked at Rein with growing gratitude.

“Lord Luther, this is what I should do as an Imperial Sword Bearer,” Rein said with a smile.

“What! Lord Rein, you are a Sword Bearer?!” The beautiful woman Werti beside him widened her eyes in shock.

“Yes!” Rein nodded and said.

The others didn’t ask further, but naturally assumed that Rein must be a strong figure from the Imperial Swordsmen Headquarters.

No way the provincial level Sword Bearers Branch could have someone as formidable as Lord Rein!

Upon hearing Rein’s words, the others, including Batalov and Luther, couldn’t help but look at Rein with astonished eyes.

Previously, the collaboration relied heavily on Rein’s personal martial prowess, but now, it had additional factors.

Unknowingly, the depth of the collaboration increased significantly.

“Rein, this news is very important for the tribe. I want to return to Jikar Creek Valley first and report this matter to the High Priest and Clan Leader,” Lagaray whispered to Rein, trying to contain her excitement.

“Although not many people are needed for smelting the gold mine, arrangements must be made in advance, and preparations for melting agents, charcoal, and building furnaces also need to be made.” Fearing Rein might disagree, Lagaray added hastily.

“Very well, I’ll come to Jikar Creek Valley to find you after I return from Wailing Wind Fjord,” Rein nodded and said.
