Although the major was not a businessman, he had worked as an intelligence officer for ten years and immediately sensed the harshness of Murphy's conditions. He shook his head and said：
“My dad might even think you're making a joke that's not funny.”
“Don't worry, young man, I haven't finished yet..”
Murphy laughed, and then said in a more serious tone:：
“From the day the factory was put into operation, you have monopolized 40% of the logistics supplies for the entire Transian region in response to the Black Disaster. Until the Black Disaster is completely over, we will not find other merchants and will only purchase goods from you..
I learned about the history of the Capet family from Professor Malcolm, and also heard from Tris about your grandfather’s embarrassment when he was running a woolen business in the Cato area when he was young..
He did Tris a small favor, so Tris told him about an ancient treasure buried in the Anjou region. Your grandfather found it and used that money to monopolize the woolen and textile business in the Cato region..
The turning point of the Capet family, which was already in decline, came from this. Today, several textile factories there are also important industries of the Capet family..
Of course, I'm not asking you to repay the favor.
I just want to say that monopoly is the secret that your grandfather’s generation can use to make the Capet family prosperous. I once said to another distinguished person that war is always the most profitable business, and the Capet family is this The absolute leader in the industry.
If you can't understand this then”
“No, I can totally understand what you mean and how huge the benefits are.”
Major Frazier's mind raced, and then he said：
“But if you want my father to be tempted, then you may have to shed a little more blood. After all, you do not deny that Transia is at risk of destruction in the Black Disaster War. You need to buy an additional insurance for this risk.’.
For example, using taxes as collateral”
“Have you ever considered coming to my place to become a vampire? Major Fraser, you are really suitable for our profession. I even think that our physical methods of breaking bones and sucking marrow are too affectionate and gentle compared to you, an old capitalist with a legacy like you..”
Murphy replied very unhappily..
he said：
“30% reduction in various taxes for the first three years！”
“50%！”
The major shouted a fixed price, and there was a sound of knocking on the table, which made him grin. He knew that Lord Murphy would eventually agree..
“I'll give you a 60% tax exemption for the first year, and then for the next two years30%.”
Murphy said in a deep voice after a few seconds.：
“But the factory I want must start construction within a month and a half! Neither of us has much time to waste, Major. You and I both know this. No matter how much you make, you have to spend it with your life.！”
“Then I will convey your terms to my father and do my best to convince him.”
The major replied politely, and then said to Murphy：
“Now please transfer the communication to my school girl Miriam. I have something personal to say to her..”
In the office of the Blood Eagle Corridor, Murphy glanced at the somewhat uneasy Scarlet Archon in surprise, and then turned the communication frequency band over..
Miriam returned to the office after several minutes with a face of shame..
It was obvious that Major Fraser gave her a severe lesson as a senior because she casually disclosed her personal contact information. He gave Miriam his contact information out of trust and the name of a friend. , a person with his status pays the most attention to personal privacy..
“Let me remind you, Miriam.”
Murphy popped open a bottle of champagne to celebrate the conclusion of the basic understanding agreement between him and the Plantagenet Kingdom. While pouring wine for several important members who would come to the office to celebrate later, the vampire was secretly thinking about himself. Scarlet Archon says：
“You have to be careful about these rich kids, they are the best at deceiving girls, especially a young and innocent cutie like you. If you are not careful, they will eat you to the bone. I don’t want to see that in a few months, You came to me crying with your big belly in your arms and told me about your experience of being deceived by a scumbag..
You'd better not do that, because I'll laugh at you hard.
But now that you're a Baroness, why not pick yourself a last name?？”
“Yes, I’m already a baroness, what other last name do I need?？”
Miriam rolled her eyes, touched the signet ring on her finger, and said：
“They all call me Miriam Moreland now, and I think that's fine.”
“But a name is not only used to mark your identity, but also to commemorate your family and clan. Don’t you admire your mother the most?？”
Murphy poured a glass of wine for his right-hand man, and he persuaded：
“Add her name to it, it will sound better.”
Miriam was silent for a few seconds, then nodded..
She raised her glass.
She raised her glass to the vampire lord in front of her who had gone from hating and fearing to trusting and following, and she said：
“So from today on, my name is Miriam Cynthia Moreland..”
“Well, it's a day worth remembering！”
Murphy also toasted to celebrate.
The moment the two glasses of wine collided, the office door opened, and Tris, who smelled the good wine and ran over, put her hands on her hips and scolded in displeasure.：
“Hello you two! You drink secretly behind my back and don’t call me, right? You two, wait for me! Just watch me curse you with terrible psychic spells.”

“Father, I'm back！”
Although the impression of his father in his heart always remained at the level of the "psychological shadow" of his childhood, when he returned to the family manor after several years of war and saw his father personally coming to the door to greet him, Major Fraser Still with red eyes, he stepped forward and hugged his father, who had already grown white hair..
Don’t think that coming to the gate of the manor is just a ceremonial welcome. The Capet family manor is so large that it accommodates a mountain as an observation deck. It takes nearly thirty years to go from the main house to the gate, even on horseback. minute.
Considering Earl Lyon's current age and his physical condition, this is really an incredible display of family affection..
After the death of the father and son, the manor has been called "Scanderbeg City" in the outside world.”.
“"Scanderbeg" is the name of Major Fraser's grandfather, and he is also the first owner of this manor. He is the best head of the Capet family in history. Fraser's father, the Earl of Lyon, and the Major himself both regard him as A person who idolizes and strives to pursue their achievements.
Oh, by the way, the valley in the center of this manor is where the ancient treasure Tris told Skanderbeg was buried..
“The daughter of the Sivir family has been waiting for you at the manor for two days. The girl named 'Peach' is very good in all aspects. Maybe you should have the first dance with her at the celebration banquet tonight..”
The Earl of Lyon leaned on his cane and walked to the carriage accompanied by his son. He whispered:.
The major did not object..
He knows there is no point in rebutting.
In this manor, anything my father says without a question mark is an order..
No matter how gentle his tone is.
As for the Sivir family, they are the top three noble families in the Anjou province. They are famous for producing loyal and powerful shock knights. Of course, this ranking must separate the giant Capet family..
“I will do as you wish, father, but there is one thing I need to communicate with you.”
When boarding the carriage and heading to the main house, the major put his luggage at his feet and told his father, who was looking at him, the agreement he had just made with Lord Murphy..
Earl Lyon did not interrupt. It was not until his son finished speaking that he smiled happily..
explain：
“My son has grown up and knows how to fight for the interests of the family and has lofty aspirations and vision. Your grandfather's vision is excellent. In his last years, he always said that you would do something more powerful than him..
I believe it now.
After all, I didn’t have the determination and courage you had when I was thirty..
But my son, you believe that Transia has potential, and now that you are facing a black disaster, instead of doing a successful business, you should do a favor to the ascendant vampire lord. Since it is a favor, you might as well be more generous. Some.
Favors are not a good thing if the other party has a grudge. There is no need for tax relief. We don’t lack that kind of money, but Transia does..
Well, let your fiancée be responsible for this matter.”
“Um？”
The major's eyes widened in surprise and he said：
“But Miss Pinkie is a noble daughter, how could she.”
“In addition to being an elegant-speaking daughter, she is also the third runner-up in the Sivir family martial arts competition. Like you, she is a graduate of the history department of the Chardoux Artisan University. Now she is in charge of part of the Sivir family's external business..
You are my son, Fraser. Although our father-son relationship has been relatively stiff since you were a child, how could I not know your preferences?？”
Earl Lyon smiled mysteriously and said：
“Rather than devouring boring sheep, my son hopes to conquer his own lioness. Getting along with Miss Pinkie Pie will not make you bored, son. I just hope that you have prepared your animal taming whip..”
