“Your Majesty, why are you here?”

Just when Jack arrived at the door of the Chamber of Commerce headquarters, Shanks hurriedly walked out.

In fact, he had already come to the lobby on the first floor to wait when the dragon roar came.

“Let me see, you did a good job.”

Jack’s words came from the bottom of his heart. Shanks did a really good job. The Haimin Chamber of Commerce is thriving in his hands.

And Shanks also has another advantage. He can make decisions on small matters. On big matters, he will ask Jack for instructions and attach his own suggestions for Jack to make a decision.

This is Jack’s favorite thing about it.

Soon Jack arrived at Shanks’ office. Jack looked around and said, “You are not short of money now, are you? The office is still so simple?”

Shanks chuckled, “The Chamber of Commerce advocates frugality. People in my office come to report on work every day. Simplicity is what it should be.”

Jack nodded when he heard this and agreed: “Indeed, frugality is good, it is a good quality.”

Jack didn’t believe a word of Shanks’s nonsense. Shanks was a businessman and now the president of the Sea People Chamber of Commerce. He was so thrifty that Jack would eat Poseidon!

Jack sat directly at Shanks’s seat and asked Shanks who was standing next to him, “How is the progress of the things I asked you to do?”

Of course Shanks knew what Jack was asking, and quickly replied:

“The progress is not bad, Your Majesty. The dividends we gave are three times the annual income of those people. We have acquired a lot of land and built it all into grain estates.

With the fertilizer and planting technicians supported by the headquarters, our manor’s income far exceeds that of other manors. It won’t be long before we have the final say on the price of food in Dorne. ”

Of course, Jack didn’t ask the Seamen Chamber of Commerce to rent Dorne’s land at a high price just to build a factory.

Based on the current situation in Dorne, the number of factories has reached its maximum, so the Chamber of Commerce rents land at high prices to build manors.

Many areas of Dorne are deserts and Gobi deserts, and a considerable part of the limited land is planted with wine crops such as grapes.

Coupled with the establishment of Poseidon Brewery, Dorne’s demand for brewing crops has greatly increased, leaving even less land for growing grain.

At this time, the fertilizers and professionally trained technicians on Neptune Island played an important role. With the support of soil fertilizers and technicians, Jack could grow food on a large scale.

When the time is right, Jack will increase the price of grapes and other wine-making crops.

After a little guidance on the development of public opinion, the Dornish people will feel that they are still not short of food, and then more people will give up growing food.

The price of grain remained stable, and Jack released a large amount of stored grain to drive down the price of grain in Dorne.

At this time, go buy the food from the Dornish people at a low price. When the food in their hands is emptied by Jack, it is time for Jack to reform Dorne.

At that time, Dorn will be wishful thinking if he wants to play guerrilla warfare in the cave with Jack. Just kidding, how can we fight without food?

Moreover, when the time comes, the Seamen Chamber of Commerce will only need to raise its arms, and it is still uncertain who the free people of Dorne will support.

Moreover, those wealthy knights and young barons who have been receiving dividends have enjoyed the days of lying flat and eating dividends. Whether they are still willing to fight is a question.

After all, for them, there is no place for them in the center of power, so it doesn’t matter whether there is reform or not, as long as it does not affect their ability to enjoy the dividends and enjoy the benefits.

Following Shanks’ introduction, Jack nodded with satisfaction. I have to say that Shanks is really a talent.

At least he understood the essential function of Jack’s orders, and he spared no effort to promote Jack’s orders.

“By the way, continue to open the factory in Dorne. I want our factory’s radiation range to cover every inhabited place in Dorne.”

“Understood, but, Your Majesty, Dorne cannot afford so many factories.” Shanks reminded carefully.

“We have to build even though we have to pay for it, and then we will use on-the-spot investigation as an excuse to draw a detailed map of Dorne’s landforms and all the places where people can hide. I want a map that is as detailed as the population, do you understand?”

“Understood, Your Majesty!” Shanks instantly understood what Jack meant.

“Just understand. Once Dorne is completely wiped out, you can go work in the Commercial Department of Neptune Island.”

Shanks’ eyes lit up and he quickly thanked Jack for the opportunity.

Just when Jack was about to leave, Shanks quickly stepped forward and said:

“Your Majesty, it will be lunch time in the afternoon soon. How about you finish your meal before leaving? I have prepared a gift for Your Majesty. You will definitely like it.”

Jack’s eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this. Wealth was not attractive to him at all, but now Shanks was sure that he would like it. It was most likely a rare treasure.

It happened that Jack hadn’t eaten either, so he went to find that old guy Dolan after finishing his meal.

“Forget about gifts or anything like that, you can arrange it. I also want to try Dorne’s delicacies.”

Upon hearing this, Shanks quickly led the way to the fifth floor, which was specially designed to welcome the Poseidon.

It is the most luxurious place of the Haimen Chamber of Commerce. Most people do not have permission to go to the fifth floor. The fifth floor supports the beautiful girls collected by Shanks.

When Jack came to the fifth floor, he was a little surprised by the luxury on the fifth floor.

He didn’t expect that the fifth floor of a chamber of commerce could be so luxurious. The luxuries in it were almost as high as those in the side halls of the Neptune Palace.

Then Shanks clapped his hands, and nine wheat-skinned girls came in, all under 14 years old and very beautiful.

Ever since Jack brought Myrcella and Lyanna with him, the news that he liked young girls spread, and Shanks had naturally prepared for Jack’s arrival.

Jack was too lazy to explain this misunderstanding. He didn’t like loli, nor was he a foot control. He just liked beautiful girls.

Jack waved to two of them, and they immediately came to Jack to accompany him for drinks. They knew what it meant to be favored by Jack.

The other seven girls began to dance, and Dorne danced a lot.

But Jack’s mind was not on girls and food. He just wanted to take a look at the gifts prepared by Shanks, and then go to Doran, the old guy, to persuade him to send troops to aid the Reach immediately.

Although the Reach was rich in resources, it was really rubbish in terms of fighting. It assembled 120,000 people, but was defeated by the 60,000 people of the Iron Throne.

Shanks also saw that Jack’s mind was not on eating, drinking and having fun, but he had already sent someone to pick up the gift, which should arrive soon.

Just as he was thinking, there was a knock on the door, and then a maid came out dragging a box.

Seeing this, Shanks immediately stood up, took the box from the maid, and then placed the box in front of Jack with a smile on his face.

“Your Majesty, this is a gift I carefully prepared for you.”

Speaking, Shanks opened the small wooden box, and a blue dragon egg fossil lay quietly inside.
