Chapter 100 Calculation
"Grek, today I just wanted to break your dog's legs, but in the end you actually played tricks and tricks. If you don't pay the money this time, then you won't want to lose your life!" "
Sir! Save me! Sir, save me!
Sir, I am willing to work for you, I can help you run your business!
Sir, I am useful, I am really useful!"
"Humph, even if the king of heaven comes today, I have to pay you back. Money!" As he said that, one of them stepped forward and tried to drag Greg away.
"What are you doing! Did I ask you to move?!" Levi scolded, which rekindled the hope of life for the originally desperate Greg.
"My lord, please think about it. My master is Lord Pat, Pat Ashan, the second son of the Marquis!" "
Get out!"
"My lord, you-"
"Tell Pat, I, Levi Monterey, am the Levi Monterey who improved the Loya Potion! And my participation in the Roja Potion improvement project was personally approved by the Marquis. I believe he should know it very well!
Slender Monkey Greg is my person, these I ordered the extraordinary materials from him. Ask him to send those materials back quickly. The loan repayment date is one month. He has no right to seize my goods!"
"Grek!"
"Sir, I'm here."
"Your batch of materials. What is the current market price?"
"Sir, it's almost thirty-three thousand gold coins."
"Go and tell your master that if he can't return that batch of goods to me, I will go to Master Yelena to apply for a sufficient amount of gold coins to use as funds. , by the way, tell Master Yelena about the good things Lord Pat has done!"
The two slaves were stunned by the huge amount of information, and stood there for a while, not knowing what to do.
"Get out of here!"
The two of them suddenly woke up and crawled away.
"Slender Monkey Greg, you go to the military camp outside the south of the city first and find the camp of the Monterey family's private army. I don't have time to deal with your affairs now, so get out of here." "
Yes, yes, thank you sir for saving my life. Just leave!"
Levi couldn't help but shook his head as he watched the thin monkey Greg leaving. This cunning businessman certainly didn't tell the truth completely, but his statement was probably pretty much the same.
As for why he saved the skinny monkey Greg, Levi had his own considerations.
First of all, saving the thin monkey Greg will definitely offend Lord Pat, the second son of the Marquis of Ashan. In fact, Levi did this on purpose.
Lord Pat is one of Flora's many idiot brothers. His only strength is his ability to break bones and suck out marrow and exploit the weak, which is above the passing level.
Ever since the Marquis of Ashan and Li Wei had a long talk, there was a question that Li Wei himself had thought about many times, that is, what was his significance to the Marquis of Ashan or the Ashan family?
During this period of time, Li Wei gradually made some bold guesses, that is, Marquis Ashan probably regarded himself as a senior worker of the Ashan family.
Similar to the CEO of a large company in the previous life, but not the chairman or major shareholder.
The more Levi thought about it, the more he felt that this guess was very reasonable.
Marquis Ashan wanted Flora to be the next generation heir to the Ashan family. I have to admit that Flora has extremely high talent in cultivation, and may not be able to become the kingdom's next holy wizard or even a legendary wizard.
Moreover, Marquis Ashan himself still has a long lifespan. Under the suppression of the contemporary Marquis Ashan and Flora's absolute strength, it is difficult for the Ashan family to have any unexpected situations.
However, although Flora was extremely talented in cultivation, she seemed a bit mediocre in other areas. Although outstanding personal strength is a strong bonus for serving as the leader of a large force, it is not everything.
As Flora's partner, he can help handle many affairs of the Ashan family as the Marquise's husband. In this way, Flora's final shortcomings were filled by herself.
Moreover, according to the succession law of the Fontaine Kingdom, Li Wei himself cannot inherit the Ashan family's inheritance. In the next generation, the Ashan family's inheritance will still be inherited by the Ashan family.
The only family property that truly belongs to Levi is the fiefdom and industry owned by the Monterey family. Of course, it's not that Li Wei is dissatisfied with the possibility of becoming a high-ranking worker in the Ashan family. I don’t know how many people flock to this “high-level migrant worker” status.
After all, such "high-level workers" can control a considerable part of the power of the Ashan family and receive a large supply of resources from the Ashan family. This is a mutually beneficial and win-win thing!
So now, Levi has appointed himself as the next leader of the Ashan family, so he naturally has a bad look at potential competitors like Lord Pat.
Li Wei's confrontation with Pat can be regarded as a test of Marquis Ashan. If Marquis Ashan acquiesces or even encourages Li Wei, then it means that Li Wei's guess is correct.
If Levi guessed wrong, it wouldn't be a big problem. The big deal would be to throw the thin monkey Greg out. After all, Pat was just an unpopular second son of a marquis, and he could not pose any substantial threat to Levi.
In this way, one of Li Wei's long-term goals can be to marry Senior Sister Qianbei, a young rich woman, and then push this young rich woman to the position of Marquis of Ashan.
In addition, Li Wei also has another purpose of doing this, which is to shock the young people.
Ever since he learned about the rumor that "Baron Monterey's good fortune has obtained the inheritance of a legendary wizard" that went viral some time ago, Levi always felt that someone wanted to make a secret move against him.
Although real experts and high-ranking figures think that Li Wei's so-called "legendary wizard inheritance" is just a joke, there are many forces and people who have malicious intentions towards Li Wei and can threaten him.
On the surface, Li Wei's backer is the Ashan family and the Marquis of Ashan, so those who have ill intentions towards Li Wei do not dare to act rashly.
If Li Wei can be so tough on the Marquis's second son Pat and still not be disliked by the Marquis, it will be enough to prove Li Wei's weight in the Marquis' heart. In this way, fewer people will dare to take action.
Especially in the newly expanded five counties, Marquis Yashan is the king of the newly expanded five counties. No fool dares to stroke the tiger's beard so boldly.
Of course, if Li Wei's previous analysis was wrong and Marquis Ashan did not value him as much as Li Wei imagined, then Li Wei's situation would be even more difficult.
The third point, which was the reason that ultimately led to Levi's temporary decision to retain Slender Monkey Greg, was Slender Monkey Greg himself.
As a newly born aristocracy that is only twenty years old, the Monterey family has limited talents, and many things require Li Wei to do it himself, which is actually very bad.
As a lord, Levi's time is very precious. Not only does he need to spend a certain amount of time practicing every day, he also needs to deal with many affairs in the territory.
In the previous power structure of Montenegro, Pedro Sr. was responsible for daily general affairs, Beram was responsible for public security and internal security, and Haaland was responsible for external security.
As the Monterey family's business grows, Levi needs more talents to participate in territory management. For example, he is currently in need of a business comprador dedicated to the Monterey family.
Just then, the shrewd philistine Slim Monkey Greg broke into Levi's sight, and Levi had the idea of taking him under his wing.
In fact, what Mr. Levi didn't know was that he was tricked by this shrewd philistine, the skinny monkey Greg.
At this time, Greg was walking quickly on the road out of the city with his head down. He wanted to quickly go to the private military camp of Baron Monterey.
A week ago, when Master Yelena's wizard tower began to purchase those extraordinary materials on a large scale, Greg was guessing the identity of the nobleman that day.
Later, the story of the "lucky Baron of Monterey" began to spread wildly in the city. Thinking about the fact that the other party didn't even have a follower when he came to buy goods that day, Greg secretly guessed that the noble man that day might be the so-called Baron of Monterey.
Later, Marquis Ashan and Master Yelena actually personally refuted the rumors for Baron Monterey, which made Greg's evaluation of Levi even higher.
Later, Greg was framed by someone, and his backer was just an ordinary baron, who directly left him. Greg then thought of joining Levi.
In particular, the person who framed him was Lord Pat of the Ashan family, and Li Wei was the celebrity whom Marquis Ashan personally came forward to refute the rumors. I think only Li Wei can protect him.
Greg thought that since the Monterey Baron was an emerging nobleman and had no one to follow him when buying things, he should be relatively short of people. If you volunteer yourself, you might be favored by others and become their comprador businessman.
In the end, this attempt was really successful, and Slender Monkey Greg temporarily saved his life. As for property, he had no expectations at all.
It's not bad to escape with one's life from such a bone-crushing aristocrat. What kind of bicycle do you want?
