Renault''s painstaking efforts to make the skull stele have two main purposes.
The first purpose, of course, is to show off force.
Chaos is coming, and nothing can unite people''s hearts better than powerful force. The reason why these nobles are willing to endure Renault''s frequent "blackmail" is the force against the rose army?
Otherwise, they are full and have nothing to do with finding an ancestor to ride on their head?
Now it seems that the effect of this move is very good.
The visual effect of the skull stele is more intuitive and has more impact. When the nobles heard that more than 30000 black orcs were annihilated in Renault''s two wars, their inner shock was far less than the huge shock brought by seeing more than 8000 skeletons in front of them.
Reno clearly noticed that the look of awe on the aristocracy''s faces was more intense.
The second purpose is to sell cement.
To be exact, it is to sell the aristocracy shares in the "cement factory" to be built.
If the cement is shown separately, the aristocrats will be surprised by the trick of "turning mud into stone", but they will never imprint the word "cement" in their mind as they do now.
From today on, whenever they think of the black orcs, they will naturally think of this towering skull stele, and then they will think of the material used to build the skull stele - cement.
In addition, this stone tablet is the first skull tablet in history. It is destined to become a landmark of Chaka town and even the whole thousand Lake kingdom.
The huge advertising effect it brings can easily spread the reputation of cement to every inch of the land in the Kingdom, even in the southern Xinghai continent. Once the cement plant is put into operation, there will be no worry about the market.
Renault looked around and began to talk.
"Everyone, I believe you can see the concrete effect of cement..."
He turned and patted the skull tablet.
"If stone is used to build this skull monument, how long will it take? It takes at least two months to mine the stones, carve them into regular shaped stones, transport them back, and finally build them into steles. "
"But what about cement?"
Renault''s voice grew louder.
"As you can see, it only took us three days. The first day we used it to build the steel skeleton, the second day we used it to pour cement. On the third day, that is today, it has become a stone tablet that can''t even be cut by a sword..."
There was a buzz in the crowd. All the nobles were excited and looked at Renault with fiery eyes.
There is no concealment about the construction process of the skull stele, and all the people in Chaka are looking at it.
In addition to the day when more than 8000 skulls were inlaid, the townspeople were scared and few people dared to come to watch. At any other time, the square where the stone tablet was built was packed.
The nobles are very concerned about every move of Chaka Town, and they are very clear about it.
These monkey spirits are clever one by one. Before the skull monument is completely solidified, they realize the great prospect of cement.
It can build stone tablets, so naturally it can also build cities, roads, houses, docks, dams, etc. it has a wide range of uses. They fully understand how huge the wealth represented by these gray powders is.
In the kingdom of thousand lakes alone, the annual demand for cement is in the millions of tons. With the passage of time, it is only a matter of time or early to expand to tens of millions of tons.
Even according to the current price of Haichao collar, that is, the low price of 30 silver nals, the annual sales will reach more than 1 million gold nals, and it will not be difficult to reach 3 million or even 5 million gold nals in the future.
Because of the fear of Renault''s force, no one dared to use a crooked brain before. We could only watch it, and at the same time, our eyes were bleeding with jealousy.
Two days ago, when Haichao chamber of Commerce issued an invitation letter named "share subscription of cement plant" to a group of nobles who "sponsored" the rose army, the aristocratic circle became a sensation.
No one is a fool. Everyone knows that coronation is just giving money. As long as you can buy shares in the cement plant, you can make a fortune, especially lying down.
Where can I find this rare opportunity?
So, as long as it is still breathing aristocracy, a not pull all came.
Looking at these guys who are obsessed with money, Renault smiles a little and says in a loud voice:
"everybody, about the shares of cement factory, haichaoling owns 60% of the shares by virtue of cement manufacturing technology, and the Duke of Castro owns 5% of the shares by virtue of the limestone mine in the territory..."
After hearing the words "Duke of Castro", any nobleman with a little more flexible mind can understand the subtext.
As we all know, due to the sudden invasion of the black Orc army, the position of the Duke of Castro has been in suspense. However, he deliberately mentioned the Duke of Castro, and said that the Duke of chiseling must account for 5% of the shares.Isn''t that funny? A new generation of Prince Castro has not yet been born. Who will claim this share?
Then, the meaning of coronation is very obvious.
Want to participate in this feast of wealth? No problem. When miss allietti becomes a duchess, you''ll have to drool one more day if she doesn''t become a duchess.
Renault''s words had not finished, already had the impatient aristocrat to shout.
"Under the crown, please rest assured that we will help Miss aleeti get the title of Prince Castro as soon as possible..."
"Yes, under the crown, miss aleeti led the rose army to defeat the black Orc army. She is worthy of the Duke''s successor..."
Renault didn''t pay attention to these guys and went on saying to himself:
" The remaining 35% of the shares will be divided into 70 shares, each with 0.5% of the shares. They will be offered to the public. There are only three detailed subscription terms... "
The crowd was silent for a moment, and all of them listened attentively to Renault''s next words.
"First, we will sell the shares by auction. The starting price is 5000 jinnals. Bidders can buy at least one share and at most three shares."
As soon as this sentence came out, there was a commotion in the crowd. Some people were disappointed, while others were pleasantly surprised. The former were rich nobles, while the latter were mainly small nobles.
Because limiting the maximum number means that the "poor" have more opportunities.
"Second, among all the nobles who once funded the rose army, the top 20 in terms of funding amount enjoy the preemptive right under the condition of the same bid!"
After a pause, Renault seriously added:
"I always think that generous people deserve enough reward!"
As soon as this sentence came out, some stingy people immediately beat their chests and groaned. Aristocrats like Carrick Byron, who paid more, immediately laughed.
"Article 3: bidders must sign an agreement. All shareholders of the cement plant must earnestly safeguard the interests of the plant. In case of any act that damages the interests of the plant, the plant has the right to..."
Renault said in a loud voice:
"confiscate all shares!"
The crowd was in an instant uproar.
This clause is simply a "petition".
The so-called "interests of the factory" is the interests of the crown holding 60% of the shares?
Therefore, the meaning of this article is that every shareholder of the factory must stand firmly on the side of the crown and make money with the crown, otherwise he will lose at least 5000 jinnals in vain.
Even the Duke of Byron, a wealthy aristocrat, 5000 jinnals is not a small number.
In other words, as long as the purchase of shares, it means that the crown of the thieves, can only follow a road to black.
That''s why Renault is deliberately limiting its maximum purchase share.
Hehe, the more nobles step on the boat, the more stable the boat is
