The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 6: Duke Annan’s fishing plan
Annan’s first reaction was after thinking about it.
The head of the Rasputin family was found... [Beauty of Imbalance] Vasika Rasputin.
Because Annan believed in Ivan.
Ivan said to Annan before, "Although the Rasputin family are all weirdos, when you succeed the Duke of Winter, Rasputin will be your best partner."
Because Rasputin is a secret-keeper family, there is no need to worry about them leaking secrets.
Annan planned to attribute the discovery of this mineral vein to the Rasputin family. As a family of pure-blood ritualists, it is not surprising that they would learn some weird secrets and master some inexplicable rituals.
You will discover a vein of gemstones - and because you are worried that you will not be able to monopolize such huge profits, it is very reasonable to give up a considerable part of the profits to the Duke of Winter in exchange for the privilege of mining gems.
In this way, it is not only impossible for those nobles to go to Annan to "meet and share half".
Instead, he would go to the Rasputin family for cooperation, and then turn around and run to Annan to ask Annan to sanction the Rasputin family.
This is the way of checks and balances.
If Annan's side is too unbalanced, the nobles will worry about themselves. They will subconsciously try to contain the Winter Family - after all, in the winter, the Winter Family is just an ordinary noble family.
But Annan pushed the Rasputin family out and became openly "partners who share interests with Annan and have different thoughts on each other."
——Then the imbalance here is no longer Annan, but the Rasputin family.
What those nobles have to do is try to drag down the Rasputin family.
Like a crab in a basket.
Whoever tries to climb out will be pulled back by his companions.
"Your Majesty, have you never considered... the possibility that I might disagree?"
"The beauty of imbalance" Vasika said with a smile: "This is putting our Rasputin family on the fire."
Wasika Rasputin in May is still a woman. According to the moon phase that day, she was in her purest human form this time.
Her pupils returned to normal brown, and the dark brown ponytail on the back of her head was still divided into a bunch hanging loosely on the left side of her chest, and a bunch tied into a ponytail hanging behind her right side.
Her slightly brown skin looks much darker than in Catwoman form. The nails and eye shadow also look much lighter. Except that the strong left-right asymmetry can still be seen, the shape is much simpler than Catwoman's.
"I never thought about that."
Annan shrugged and said with a smile: "Because I plan to sell you 30% of the shares."
"So many?"
Wasika was a little surprised.
She originally thought that if she could get 12%, she could actively take the blame. Two achievements are the ideal line in her heart.
After all, it can be said that she did nothing in this matter. He was just pushed out to block the gun...and he actually got 30%?
Of course, the 30% must be an upfront investment...but this is a trivial matter. As an ancient family that also has elven blood, the Rasputin family cannot have no savings.
As long as Annan allows them to invest in the "Lindong Mining Company" to be established, it will be tantamount to directly transferring a considerable part of the interests.
But this 30%...
But Vasika is the head of the clan after all.
She responded quickly.
"Are you planning to target the Melvin family?"
Winter, Melvin, Rasputin.
These are the top three families in the Principality of Winter.
A generation controls the Tower of Storms and stably rules the Principality of Winter; one always has more than one gold-level extraordinary person, and each generation produces at least ten silver-level extraordinary people; one generation is rich in a large number of ritualists, and the ratio Accounting for more than 40% of the official extraordinary people in Winter.
In fact, most people have no idea about the most important thing in the Winter family, the Blood of Winter, which can command frost beasts.
After all, the frost beast is just a legend to most people - they can't just go outside the small barrier to see it. It's also impossible for the frost beast troops to come and beat them.
Just like the Noahs could hardly see the extraordinary ones.
In fact, a considerable number of people in winter will never see a living frost beast in their lifetime. Only when the frost beasts are captured from outside every year, do you have the opportunity to see the convoy capturing the frost beasts passing through the city - at that time almost everyone in the city will come to watch.
It is precisely because of this that they believe that "frost beasts really exist."
So for them, the Winter Family is not necessarily much more powerful than the Wizard Family and the Ritualist Family.
After all, the Winter family is too sparse.
In the Principality of Winter, where "life means victory", this sounds very weak. But after all, as a ducal family, they have been Grand Dukes for generations...so there won't be any problem.
So at this time, Winter and Rasputin divided the profits of the new mine.
People's first reaction would not be "Lin Dong and Rasputin are collaborating."
But "Are the Rasputins stronger than Melvin?"
Because the Winter family has never been included in the "intensity debate".
After the Rasputin family became stronger, ritual masters born in Rasputin would naturally seize some ministerial positions.
They were originally more fertile than the Melvin family, and now they are richer.
This means that the power of wizards from the Melvin family will be greatly diluted. Annan's biological mother is a member of the Rasputin family, and "the Rasputin family is willing to share the interests with him" sounds very reasonable.
In the view of "Beauty of Imbalance" Vasika.
If this mining company is really established.
In the first few years, the Rasputin family would definitely be suppressed by other nobles in turn because they could not bear the pressure.
But this suppression is only superficial.
Because they themselves also know that the Rasputin family will definitely get a lot of new blood. Then they will no longer support "Melvin".
In the next few years, I am afraid that there will be repeated debates in the court.
On the surface, Rasputin will continue to suffer, but in fact, he will be very happy - but the "friends" of the Melvin family will scold Rasputin while quietly talking to Melvin. Irvine cuts off contact.
At this time, it is impossible for the Rasputin family to rebel.
Because the longer this situation lasts, the more benefits they will gain.
Other nobles will even start to shut themselves off.
Because their growth rate is in no way comparable to the resources Rasputin obtained from the gem trade - not even in total. Then they can only start to accumulate strength and shrink their power.
Melvin will suddenly be isolated.
"I plan to make Melvin jump or give in within half a year."
Annan nodded and explained to Vasika in a deep voice: "Help me and find a way to force them.
"This 30% share is just a deposit."
The real benefit Annan promised was to make the Rasputin family become a super-large family "second only to the Winter Family" in the future!
This surprised even Vasika.
...How dare Your Majesty Annan do this?
Although she was indeed loyal to His Majesty Annan for some reasons... But this does not mean that Rasputin in the future will also be loyal to Annan's descendants.
This is like the two families, Winter and Rasputin, diluting the equity of other shareholders of the company "Prince of Winter" on a large scale.
This will turn the current Principality of Winter into a voice again. After the Melvin family retreated, there was no force in the entire Principality of Winter that could stop the alliance between Winter and Rasputin.
It is impossible to stop it even if it is just a violation of the law.
This means that Annan will regain the dictatorship of the Principality of Winter.
And as a price... in the future Principality of Winter, Rasputin's voice will become very loud.
And this plan itself may make some nobles who have been diluted to the edge of the power circle jump over the wall. They might even unite with the Melvin family to openly rebel!
As long as they don't raise troops, Annan will not be able to use the army to attack them. And if they are determined to go against the two families of Winter and Rasputin, I am afraid that the Principality of Winter will fall into chaos.
Unless...
Wasika's pupils suddenly contracted.
"...Grandma, is she...going to wake up?"
She asked with some uncertainty and fear.
If the old grandmother wakes up, there will be no problem with this plan.
In the winter, the Winter Family is just an ordinary noble, with the advantage of controlling the Storm Tower - but in the harvest year, they are the largest priest family, with a higher status than the Pope.
Annan nodded slowly.
"The old grandmother has entered a state of light sleep. If nothing happens, the old grandmother will wake up in about half a year...around October this year."
The young Grand Duke said this: "After the 'beginning of spring', winter will usher in an unprecedented period of development. Sitting on this wind, even a pig can take off.
"As long as the old grandmother is awake ~IndoMTL.com~ no one will dare to disobey my opinion. But the old grandmother will not agree with me attacking other nobles at will... because this is the behavior of a tyrant. The same goes for them We are the 'descendants' of my old grandmother, and we are a 'family that loves each other'.
"——But it would be different if they showed their fox tail and started to openly oppose me. That would undoubtedly question the authority of the head of the family... and I don't want those who opposed me before to confront me. What benefits do you get from this bonus?"
Annan showed an innocent smile and crossed his fingers on his chest: "I don't have any bad intentions. I don't hold grudges because they troubled me before.
"I just hope that those who dislike me can express their innermost thoughts as soon as possible and honestly."
"Five months..."
Wasika thought for a moment.
She suddenly said: "Then why don't you... go abroad again?
"In June or July, you will find an opportunity to go abroad. If you are comfortable with me, I will take your Highness Dmitry and Your Highness Maria with you...
"I have a way to make them start to have some twisted thoughts."
