Chapter 793: "Let The Government Join The Alliance?"
Chapter 793: “Let The Government Join The Alliance?”
While the marshal was making the hardest decision in his life, Ainsley was also busy with another matter.
Just a few minutes ago, the mafia council's representative, who was with their alliance for the past few days, brought new information for Ainsley.
"Little boss, do you know about this year's coronation to appoint ten new high-ranked mafia families?"
Ainsley nodded at the man's words. "I know. What's wrong with that?"
"Well, the coronation will start tomorrow. It's almost the end of the year, and the mafia council want the coronation to end before the new year celebration."
After all, right after they celebrated the new year, they would need to cooperate with the government to chase away the yearly horde beasts and monsters.
The experts predicted that the horde would begin at the end of January or in the beginning of February.
Such a big operation between the government's side and the mafia society obviously wouldn't need only one or two weeks to discuss.
They usually needed a month to prepare for the upcoming horde while drafting a temporary agreement between the two.
This year, the government had quite a change, and the officials weren't the same as last year.
Even the government's vice-president was different.
Thus, it was not strange if there would be more frictions between the government and the mafia council.
Because of this, the mafia council wanted to quickly appoint the ten new high-ranking families, hold a meeting with all the high-ranking families in the mafia society, and then set off to meet the government.
Coincidentally, the meeting time that the mafia council wanted to hold is right after the coronation, before the new year celebration.
And a week after the new year celebration, they would set off to the capital and discuss with the government.
Ainsley herself would hold her fourth birthday banquet on 4th January, and it's unavoidable that her schedule would be tight.
The war hadn't ended, yet she would have to rush to the coronation ceremony tomorrow!
Ainsley furrowed her eyebrows and looked at the navy.
She was suddenly tempted to negotiate with the marshal to stop attacking the island.
But Ainsley wanted the enemy side to have as little benefit as possible.
They also had to contribute as much as possible compared to the others in the alliance.
But could she really invite the government to join her island's alliance?
She felt a bit reluctant to do that…maybe because of prejudice and because of what happened to the real Martin.
Even up to this day, she hadn't even gotten Martin back intact!
Wait. Could she use this as one of the requirements for the government to join her alliance?
And of course, she would give the government the least benefit compared to the other members, but they had to contribute the most to the island.
Ainsley wouldn't accept the government' troops and would only get their money!
Ainsley rubbed her chin and immediately asked Jake's opinion about this. She also asked the other members, plus the Godfather.
"Well, this is not impossible. The government attacks the island because they want the mine, " Jake's eyes flashed with a shrewd light of a businessman.
"If we hit them with a stick and then reward them with a piece of this project…"
Jake meant to discipline the government to stop making trouble for them if they wanted to benefit from the island too.
The other members weren't as good as Jake in terms of business, but they were also tired of fighting the government.
"Little boss' idea is good. We can squeeze the government dry, and they can only get a minimum benefit."
Riemann immediately supported Ainsley's words, but one of the five nobles hesitantly asked the other members.
"Will the government agree with such an unbalanced agreement, though? What if they don't want to?"
Hearing this, Geraldine was the first to react.
"If they protest, just tell them– who told you to attack the island first?"
Geraldine, the head of the Alchemist Guild, chuckled as he looked at his allies.
"I think after the government agrees, more and more powerhouses will want to be involved in the island. But too many allies aren't good."
"Hum. That's why I want to sell stocks and let the others become small shareholders, unlike us, who have the most shares, " Ainsley added.
Well, the fourteen core members would only have around 1% of the shares, depending on how much money and human resources they invested.
After all, Ainsley had prepared separate benefits for them, and in terms of the shares, it only gave them a little bit of money.
The money from selling the stones would be much bigger than the shares.
But for the powerhouses who couldn't get their hands on the stone, buying stocks and receiving a bit of money from the island's business wouldn't be so bad.
Ainsley's business wouldn't only depend on the inheritance stone, after all.
They still had the hunting ground business, the Hundred Thousand Demon Blood gems, other rare materials, the land rent for other merchants who wanted to develop at the island….
Ainsley needed much more money to develop Pandora Island from a wasted island to be a money-making island.
And these shareholders that weren't part of their alliance could be of help.
"Right, let's not add the government to our alliance. How about we make them our sponsor?" Ainsley grinned from ear to ear as she spoke to the members.
"In return, we will sell them some inheritance stones that they picked at a much lower price."
The government even had to earn the right to buy the stones…but the alliance did plan to be high-profile and not sell the stones to just anyone.
It's a privilege to be able to buy the stones!
