The Level 999 Sword Master
Chapter 22: Seriousness

Melvin's point of view.

I just said something senseless and horrible, duke's territory was a vast territory where it could be said to be a strategic territory for many people to live in and now I ask him to exchange the territory for Isbel city territory.

Although my request seems stupid I can guarantee it to develop the region, now all I need is to embrace the Duke noble to be by my side without his help it is difficult to make the cat race the most favored race in this kingdom.

I have great power with level 999 only by involving myself in many battles I will definitely get a lot of money so that in the end this village can also develop but that is not what I want.

Like I said, I want to take a path where I can choose as much leisure time as possible.

Duke's nobility was silent to think about it, he occasionally tried to look at my expression with a judging gaze but I didn't put too much pressure on him, there were some options I had prepared even if he refused I had something to change everything.

A wise man always says think before you act and that's what I always try to say, if someone walks a step ahead of me I just have to follow him with the next two steps.

"I see, although I would be impressed to cook with the king but my request can still be considered, I will do as Mr. Melvin says."

I was obviously surprised, this was indeed the result I wanted to hope for but this man replied quickly, even if he said he would think about it and give the answer tomorrow.

That's something normal.

His wife also did not say anything just nodding the approval given by her husband.

"For us our daughter is an irreplaceable treasure, if we are asked to start building a territory from below again, I don't mind if this is a request from someone who saves her," he said, even though it's all thanks to Noa, they're trying to give race thanks to me.

They only lost territory not their noble titles.

Bernard continued with a question.

"So what do I want to do?"

"The adventurous guilds in the city of Isbel did not contribute too much to the kingdom even so they were very reliable in the defense of the city, so I want Mr. Bernard to build a trade guild in that place on behalf of my company, of course before that happens I want to create a road that connects three places, the village of the cat race, he said, the city of Isbel was then the capital to make it easier to develop other sectors in the future."

"Well, if we get the full support of the landlords, it will be helpful, and we are also willing to pay 15 percent to rent the place from our income."

"That's a bold move."

"Of course, we don't mind taking part in the construction of the city either."

If you assume that, 15 percent is something pretty big. Usually the terms of renting will be determined with certainty through a contract.

For example, if a person rents a place for 100 gold coins a month then it is not the next they also have to deposit the same amount of money, but I do not take the concept but a new concept in this world, like the concept of a stock.

If the merchant guild I managed to get double the profit last month then the rent I gave would also double, it required trust in this business.

Even if one day we were at the top, thousands of gold coins could be accepted into the pockets of the Duke's own nobles.

Bernard said with sharp eyes showing his seriousness.

"Why are you so confident in that?"

"Because I have knowledge that no one else has."

Everyone fell into silence.

"Mr Melvin are you one of the heroes? I heard they always had something different."

"No, please don't equate me with those pathetic heroes, even though I haven't met them, they have bad rumors. If I had to say I'm just a regular guy who likes this woman."

"Why are you saying that with a relaxed face?" arline yelled at me while Vista put his shoulder up while shaking his head.

"You just sounded cool, but it's like this now."
