Chapter 369 368. To Be Honest, Is the Friend You Are Talking About Yourself?

"Thank you, Viscount Nidas, for your generosity."

The biggest goal tonight was accomplished, and Mo Cheng relaxed a lot.

"You don't need to worry about the cabins at all." Viscount Nidas smiled and pointedly said, "Perhaps we will have more opportunities to cooperate in the future."

Opportunity to coorparate?

Information about Viscount Nidas was quickly flashed through her mind. As a baron promoted by Queen Caroline, Helena's stance was definitely to follow Queen Caroline.

Then Viscount Nidas, who could allow her to come to the banquet tonight, at least would not be against the queen in terms of stance. At least Helena did not specifically mention this matter to Mo Cheng when she was in the carriage.

In this way, Viscount Nidas is a neutral noble, and the "cooperation opportunities" he talks about probably have nothing to do with political matters.

Referring to Viscount Nidas's character, which many people know, he loves money and enjoys luxury, then the so-called cooperation is most likely a business cooperation.

"If there is an opportunity, I will give priority to Viscount Nidas."

Others gave him four first-class seats without blinking an eye, and the price was at least 20,000 to 30,000 gold griffins, so Mo Cheng naturally said good things.

It doesn't matter whether there will be cooperation or not. If you paid someone else's boat ticket in vain, you should say something nice.

But after Mo Cheng said this, Viscount Nidas seemed to be waiting for these words, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Speaking of which, I have a business here, which happens to be helpful to the earl."

Viscount Nidas's business, how can that thing help him?

Mo Cheng couldn't help but wonder, which aspect of his improvement needs to be linked to money? At present, he doesn't have a lot of money, and he doesn't have to worry about his expenses. If he doesn't adopt the aristocratic style consistent with the earl, he can get a lot of nourishment.

Of course, if he really gets a territory, the money in his hands will definitely not be enough to develop the territory, and he will have to think of more ways to make money.

But when it comes to territory, I haven’t even touched upon it yet. Not to mention anything else, Mo Cheng has given full authority to Loni to handle this matter. Even with the help of the Lauren Frost family and the royal family, it will take a while just to go through the entire process.

Both Margaret and Misas seemed to know that Mo Cheng did not have a suitable person responsible for aristocratic affairs. At the same time, after Mo Cheng declined the other party's suggestion of whether he needed a butler, they did not say anything more.

It’s just that when Loni goes to do these things, she often meets the butlers of the Lauren Frost family, or members of the royal family, who then [incidentally] help Loni complete various tasks, and also teach various things. necessary knowledge.

His thoughts calmed down slightly, and Mo Cheng slightly raised the wine glass in his hand, waiting for further explanation from Viscount Nidas.

However, Viscount Nidas did not speak, but looked around. Baron Helena immediately understood that he was not suitable for the next words, so he said: "I'm going to see how Isabella and the others are doing."

After that, he walked far away alone.

"Your Excellency, Earl, I heard that you want to become a pioneer noble and have applied for [Territorial Seal]?"

"That's right." Mo Cheng admitted openly. This kind of thing is not a secret.

For Mo Cheng, noble status is not necessary, but the land ownership rights brought by noble status make him very concerned.

A fiefdom with an area of ​​5,000 square kilometers is equivalent to the area of ​​a medium-sized prefecture-level city in my hometown.

But Aundair didn't have that much land in the country that could be entrusted to Mo Cheng, and he didn't like the monthly living allowance given by the royal family, so he simply applied to become a pioneer noble and build a piece of land by himself.

After all, the environment in which Mo Cheng grew up and the Asian cultural circle had a deep-rooted obsession with [land].

How can money compare with land?

"Currently, there is not that much land in the country that can be entrusted, so the earl can only go to areas with relatively little human activity to open up land there. In this way, it will cost a lot of money, right?"

Viscount Nidas' words were very euphemistic. To use a more concise term, an area with sparse human activities is called a barren land.

But this is not something that needs to be covered up. Mo Cheng still nodded and affirmed: "Yes, does this have anything to do with the business you mentioned? Or does Viscount Nidas intend to help me build the earldom in the future?"

"Your Excellency, the Earl, thinks too highly of me. My meager money cannot support the construction of the Earl's territory. However, the business I introduced to the Earl can relieve the Earl's financial constraints. I don't know if Your Excellency, the Earl, knows that Fairhay Ven’s Brinton neighborhood?”

Brinton neighborhood?

Mo Cheng frowned a little when he heard the name. Of course he knew that in the Brinton neighborhood, although Gulan and the others did not continue to engage in gang activities, they were still essentially the largest gang in the Brinton neighborhood.

It's just that you don't need to make a living by collecting protection fees, opening brothels, and opening casinos.

Viscount Nidas coughed twice, "I... I have a friend who got something in Fairhaven last month."

"what?"

"Well, I got some stuff from the biggest store in the Brinton neighborhood. I... my friend told me that the effect of that stuff is very good."

Viscount Nidas winked and said, "You know, because of his age and physical condition, my friend is not as powerful as before in some ways. That kind of thing saved me very well... My friend life."

Listening to Viscount Nidas's words, which had no real meaning at all but were full of hints, Mo Cheng was a little confused at first.

But as he listened, his face began to look strange.

He made some associations and hoped that his imagination was not true.

"So, what you are talking about is..."

Viscount Nidas looked around, as if he was worried that there were pairs of eyes and ears hidden under the grass or flowers.

Then he took something out of his arms, and his cautious look made Mo Cheng think he was holding a family heirloom that had been passed down for dozens of generations.

"My friend bought the stamina pills and stamina potions from the biggest store in the Brinton neighborhood."

"Your Excellency, please forgive me. At that time, my friend really wanted to communicate with the store and planned to buy more. At that time, the other party told my friend that the production was limited and rejected my friend's proposal to buy in large quantities."

"My poor friend wanted to talk to them about expanding, but they refused because the owner didn't reply. So..."

"So..." Mo Cheng helped Viscount Nidas add what he said next, "You have found out through your investigation that I am the boss behind the Golden Rose?"

Mo Cheng's face was expressionless. He finally understood why Viscount Nidas ran out of the manor to greet him when he knew he was coming.

"No, it's my friend, not me!"
