My name is Ren

Chapter 37 We are walking on the road with high spirits and fighting spirit!

When Ren opened his mouth and uttered the first syllable, everyone in the hall closed their mouths as if they had a heart, and stared at Ren's boots, not daring to raise their heads any more.

"To be honest, I don't like you guys." Ren's opening was a shocking sentence, and some people trembled, "But..." His tone became heavier, and some people gasped in the calm hall. Sound, Ren stretched out his right index finger, slender and long, with a copper ring at the root.He shook his finger, "Where there is light, there is darkness. Although I don't like you, I never reject you."

"In Ortrenburg, or other places, each has its own unique but very close way of ruling. I, the nobles and the ruling class are responsible for the rule on the surface, and you rule the land quietly hidden in the dark. Shadow. For a very long period of time, this kind of established game rule has been the mainstream. But so many things happened today, no matter which one it is, it tells me the same message again, that is, I can’t let it go like this The twisted rules of the game are going in a direction they shouldn't be."

"The rules of the game, it's time to change them."

"First of all, someone robbed the casino today, and someone stabbed the thug in the casino. I regret this. But at the same time, civilians were also killed. This is also a hateful act. I have a brief understanding, these casinos except In addition to absorbing a large amount of funds from ordinary people every day, they also use the method of usury to force others to sell their children and daughters, causing many families to be destroyed." Ren's expression was very serious and sad, and his voice was even deeper, "I am The lord of this city manages everything on this land, just like their parents. I can't bear to see such a casino exist in my home, bullying and even murdering my children, so the casino needs to be reformed. "

"From today onwards, the operation rights of all casinos will be formally banned, and the bidding will be conducted in a manner approved by the City Lord's Mansion. Among the bidders who meet the requirements, the highest bidder will win. Ortrenburg will sell the first batch of three "casino operating licenses." License', and a 'private small loan special business license', the auctioneer can operate this type of project, I regard their industry as legal and protect it. Without a license, all operations are illegal."

The faces of the leaders of several forces who have shares in the casino have become much more ugly. It is not the first day that the casino in the city has appeared, and it has existed for many years.Now if you say close it, you can close it. Who will pay for these losses?Furthermore, the new operating method requires bidding for the operating license, which invisibly dilutes the profits of the casino. In the final analysis, the City Lord's Mansion wants to make money, and the food is too ugly.

These people dared not speak out, but ignored the other people's panting and eye contact with each other.They are those forces that are not strong enough. There is no conflict of interest in the casino, and there is no partnership.In the past, they could only watch the casino's daily progress and drool, but they didn't expect to have the opportunity to intervene today.

Everyone is not a fool. One can get a casino license without money. You can unite a group of people to do this together.Immediately, some people finalized the plan in their minds, and prepared to join forces immediately after leaving the City Lord's Mansion, trying to grab a license from those predators.

Alma raised her eyebrows and remained silent. Harvey glanced at her secretly but said nothing.

In the silence, someone finally made a sound. A middle-aged man in leather armor stood up, took a step forward and bowed, "Dear Lord, I have no intention of questioning your decision. I ask you to tell me that as long as I or Whoever buys this license can operate freely? Can the protection you mentioned protect us from malicious attacks from other people?"

"The first question is that the operating right of the license is only valid for two years, and there will be another auction after two years, and the highest price will win. As for how to operate, I will provide a standard business plan and model, and you can freely Delete or add a part, except for the frame. As for protection, you are right, the City Lord’s Mansion also needs to protect legal operators for reasons, and infringing on your interests is tantamount to provoking the majesty of the City Lord’s Mansion.”

After Ren's words, the middle-aged man was very excited, and the light waves in his eyes flowed, obviously moved.Most of the forces he represents are small forces in the city. If the auction has obtained a business license but cannot operate normally, it will undoubtedly be a failed investment, which will bring a devastating blow to their own very weak strength.With Ren's guarantee, at least he doesn't need to worry that those big forces will use various methods to force them out of business.

After the middle-aged man returned to his seat, Ren continued: "Other projects also need to be reformed. In addition to the operating license of the casino, I will also wholesale a technician service center license, two slave trading licenses, and three Steal license."

Some aggrieved people were immediately attracted by Ren's words, and the unhappiness in their hearts disappeared.They couldn't compete with Alma for the license of the technician service center. Obviously, only one license was granted in preparation for Alma's complete monopoly of technician services in Ortrenburg.But slave trading licenses and plundering licenses are different. Whether it is the number or the strange name, they have become serious.

"As the literal meaning is the same, the business scope of the slave business license includes capturing slaves and trading slaves. Prior to this, slave hunting was not only morally condemned, but also violated the imperial code of law. It can be said that slave hunting It is a gray industry, illegal to a certain extent, and not protected by the imperial code of law. But as long as you have a slave business license, slave hunting within the range I delineated will be regarded as a legal business.", A After speaking in a long breath, Ren pursed his lips, took a breath from the teacup, and took a sip. "In Ortrenburg and the surrounding areas, private slavery and slave trading will be eliminated. At that time, I will organize a law enforcement team to arrest and attack all slave traders in the entire Bell Province to ensure legal The rights and interests of businessmen are properly protected.”

Harvey, who was sitting below, suddenly became excited. Once Rennes' promise became a reality, he would become the largest slave trader in the entire Bell Province, mastering the transactions of tens of thousands of slaves, and perhaps become the largest slave trader in the empire. Maybe.Regardless of how powerful he is now, he claims to be the largest slave trader in Ortrenburg. In fact, there are no less than twenty organizations and gangs in Ortrenburg that capture and trade slaves.Sometimes even mercenaries would catch some slave trade in their spare time, which greatly harmed his interests. At the same time, he had no good way to deal with it, so he could only acquiesce.

It is said that only monopoly can create brilliance. Harvey can already see his glorious future, but there is one prerequisite, that is, he must hold on to the thigh of the city lord and do his best in the profession of dog leg.

Blair felt a trace of inexplicable hostility in Harvey's gaze, which made him puzzled. He subconsciously stared back, only to see a faint smile from Harvey.

Neuropathy!
Looking at the people who were arguing, Ren raised his hand and made a virtual press, making the hall quiet again, "The way to obtain a slave business license is also through auction, but the way to obtain a plunder license is different. To put it bluntly, the plunder license , is the robbery authorized by the Ortrenburg government..."

The quiet hall exploded with a bang, did you hear me right?Officially sanctioned robbery?This... This is simply unprecedented. How can any official agree to such a thing? Isn't this poaching one's own corner?The ones who moved me the most were the heads of the mercenary regiments. They were mercenaries when they were employed, and bandit gangs when they had no business.Every plunder means a violation of the laws of the empire, and once caught, they will face the fate of being hanged on the city wall.

So every time they robbed outside, they had to cover their faces and be careful not to reveal any survivors, so as to avoid exposing their behavior and whereabouts.

But now, this young city lord actually wants to issue an officially licensed plundering license to carry out official robbery. Why does it sound ridiculous?
"The method of obtaining the plundering license will be based on the ratio of plundering and handing in to the auction method. Among the proceeds obtained from each plundering, the one with the highest turned-in ratio will get the plundering license. At the same time, the scope of plundering also needs to be delineated by me. All plundering teams Looting must be carried out within the delineated range, and those who exceed this range will not be protected, and it will also be regarded as an illegal act and will be pursued by the Imperial Code."

The heads of the several mercenary regiments glanced at each other, and immediately looked away. They all had their own little account in mind.First of all, it is certain that plundering is more profitable than those businesses such as escorts and escorts.Secondly, no matter what the rate of payment is, looting has become a legal business, which means that you can continue to plunder and get more income.

In this way, even if more than half or even more is handed over, it is still a very cost-effective deal.

While everyone began to calculate the gains and losses, they also had to sigh, not to blame those dead guys for being too wronged, but that the city lord was really too tough.Fighting with this city lord is simply courting death.When the sun rises tomorrow, when these news spread, when everything is settled, it is conceivable that the biggest forces in this city will be attached to the city lord's side, leading the horses and the stirrups.Their wealth and honor are placed on the city lord. If the city lord is good, they will be good. If the city lord is unlucky, they will be finished!

This city has changed!
