"Pit the Augustus family?" As soon as the fat man heard this, he immediately came to the spirit, and hurriedly said: "Of course I'm interested, but I don't know, do you have any good methods?" "
"Huh!" The old evil suddenly laughed treacherously: "You think, if this kind of bow is successful, then the price of raw materials for other bows on the market will definitely plummet, do you know this?" "
"Of course I know!" The fat man nodded hurriedly.
"But the problem now is, we know, but others don't." The old evil suddenly laughed treacherously: "If at this time, we block the news, and then you send people to the street to rush to buy the raw materials for making bows, you say, what will happen to the Augustus family?" "
The fat man was stunned at first, but after all, he was a master of this way, and he quickly reacted, and hurriedly said excitedly: "Ha, I understand, if we snap up materials at this time, the Augustus family must think that we want to monopolize the material market first, so that the Augustus family cannot produce even if they have a formula!" In this case, the only thing they can do is grab the material with us! In this way, the price of materials will definitely skyrocket, and then we will quietly sell the materials in stock to them at a high price! Haha, when our metal bow appears, the materials purchased by the Augustus family at a high price will all turn into garbage, and these bastards can definitely be killed! "
"Since you understand, then I won't say more!" The old evil smiled slightly, and then said, "Okay, I'll give you the formula when I turn back!" After that, the old evil turned around and left. The fat man looked excited and began to discuss the specific details with the big butler.
Soon, starting this morning, the various chambers of commerce under the Stephen family began to be nervous, frantically buying all the raw materials for making bows and arrows that could be seen on the market. Even the scope began to expand from the imperial capital to the whole country.
Of course, the Stephen family can't hide such a big movement from others. Especially the Augustan family, who were keeping an eye on them. I received the news at the first time, and the fat man, the old evil expected. They also thought that the Stephens family wanted to prevent the people who got the formula from competing with them by monopolizing the ingredients. So the Augustus family reacted quickly and began a large-scale acquisition campaign. Under the rush of these two families, the price of bow and arrow materials soared. Both sides kill the red eye, it is simply a robbery at all costs! In just a few days, the price of these materials has tripled.
At this time, the Stephen family quietly got a batch of raw faces from the outside and emptied the family's inventory little by little. However, the Stephen family concealed it well, some of them went out, and some of them kept entering. Put on a dead look to confuse the Augustus family. So much so that they didn't realize it was wrong in the end.
I line
For the things outside, the old evil did not care, and after he went out, he directly took Sven and those barbarians out. More than 300 big men. He also carried a murder weapon. Wandering around the core area of the most critical place in the imperial capital naturally caused a wave of unease. Although there is a Stephen family signboard, there are still at least several groups of people watching from afar, for fear that the old evil will carry out murder with this group of human murder weapons.
Of course, the old evil will not mess around in the noble district, and if he does it, it will be a matter of the future. He just disliked his own people for being too cold, so he took them to change clothes.
Of course, as such a generous lord as an old evil. You will definitely not let your subordinates suffer. So he took these people directly to the largest weapons shop under the Stephen family.
In fact. The Stephen family is very bullish in the manufacturing industry of the Gryphon Kingdom, except for bows and arrows. In addition to wands, they also have good skills in forging, of course, this technology is not as ahead as projects such as bows and wands, and their ranking in the Gryphon Kingdom is even slightly worse than the Augustus family subway workshop. After all, people have a close relationship with the dwarves, and although they will not completely get the dwarven technology, even a few small pointers are enough to make the Augustus family's casting technology proud of the human world. Of course, their level can only make low-level weapons, that is, to equip ordinary soldiers, like those masters, and high-level weapons used by nobles, which are the patents of dwarves.
Under the leadership of Chris Chen, the identity of the old evil is naturally undoubted, and the person in charge of the shop certainly does not dare to snub and hurriedly comes out to greet him. The old evil didn't talk much nonsense with him, and waved his hand directly: "Take me to the heavy weapons and heavy armor warehouse!" "
The old evil is now in a different identity, no longer the idiot who can be bullied by anyone before, but the count of the empire, and the upper echelons of the family have also passed on the news that the old evil has the substantive right to participate in family affairs. Therefore, the responsible persons everywhere dare not go against the meaning of the old evil, and the responsible persons here are the same. So as soon as he heard the old evil order, he hardly hesitated, so he quickly took action and brought people to the warehouse.
In the warehouse that can arm hundreds of heavily armored warriors, various types of armor, double-edged axes, epee swords and other weapons are placed, all of which are shiny and high-quality. The barbarians who watched were almost drooling.
You know, in their barbarian wasteland, there are definitely not so many such good guys, they are still in a very primitive social state, they will not be cast at all, otherwise they would not use animal bones and wooden sticks as weapons. At first, the fat man only used a hundred tomahawks to exchange for little Stephen's mother, the precious daughter of a large tribal chief. It can be seen how much they lack iron tools.
"Take it as long as you want, as long as you can fight without burden!" The old evil waved his big hand.
As soon as they heard the words of the old evil, a group of people suddenly went crazy, and without saying a word, they immediately began to fight for me, and soon became a mess. The old evil and Sven saw that something was wrong, for fear that they would fight here, hurriedly went over, kicked and beaten, only then did they get their excitement down, and one by one began to honestly select their favorite weapons and armor.
After more than two hours, these people were selected. I saw that each of them had a metal all-steel armor, a tomahawk or a heavy sword in his hand, a large shield behind his back, and a small dagger or short sword pinned to his waist, and the whole thing was a metal monster!
Looking at the humanoid murder weapon wrapped in metal that came out of the warehouse, the old evil couldn't help but be extremely satisfied. After such a group of powerful guys stood in the yard, there was an invisible coercion without moving their hands, which was enough to make people who wanted to be enemies of old evil tremble!
"Good, good!" The old evil smiled and said, "Go, brothers, I'll take you to the best big hotel in the imperial capital!" Let you eat the best dishes and drink the best wine! "
"Yay! Long live the young master! When the group of barbarians heard this, they jumped with joy.
"Haha, go!" The old evil is not nonsense, haha smiled and took them directly away.

When these old evil people came to the big hotel, they were immediately stopped by the hotel's security guards and others. Seeing their appearance like a great enemy, the old evil couldn't help but be a little funny. The heart said that he came to eat, not to tear down the shop, as for?
Fortunately, at this time, the hotel manager came out, as soon as he saw the old evil, his head was bigger, he didn't dare to slack, and hurriedly came over and laughed: "Master Stephen, you see, we have always got along well, what are you dissatisfied with us, we will change it in a word, there is no need to make such a big move?" "
"I'm here to eat, not to smash the store!" The old evil said with a smile.
"Eat?" The manager was stunned at first, and then quickly smiled: "Then of course we are very much welcome." It's just that, Master Stephen, with us, your safety can be completely our responsibility, these subordinates of yours, don't go in, right? "
"How does that work?" The old evil immediately turned pale, and said directly: "I came here to treat my subordinates this time, how can I not let them in?" "
"Young Master!" When the manager heard this, he almost cried, and quickly said, "You also have to be considerate of our difficulties?" The hotel is full of high-ranking aristocrats, if I put them in, how can I do this business? "
In fact, the old evil also knows that the manager is very embarrassed. Because people's hotels are the best in the imperial capital after all, in order to provide various nobles with places for dining and entertainment, naturally paying special attention to identity and taste. Not to mention this group of barbarians, even rich businessmen, do not want to enter without aristocratic status. Because the group of proud nobles thought it was an insult to sit and eat with these inferior people, and if they were allowed in, those nobles would not come. They can't afford to lose this person.
If these barbarians enter as guards, it doesn't matter, but if they enter as guests, then the problem is big, almost equivalent to smashing the signboard, which is why the manager is so embarrassed.
In fact, the old evil also knows this truth, but he doesn't want to care about this. In fact, as an old devil, he is not a reasonable person at all?
So he said to the manager very crisply: "I will give you two choices, one is to ask us to eat, the other is to ask us to smash the store, you show me!"
