Translator: 549690339
The ship arrived at Golden Island the next day. They entered the military port of Golden Island and went directly to the Naval base. After arriving at the Naval base, the primordial Sword Saint told Ryan and the others that he was going to cultivate in seclusion and left. Ryan and the others knew that ninth-level experts spent most of their time in seclusion, so they didn’t care.
Zhao Hai did not pull the primordial Sword Saint into the space with good intentions. He had already realized that those who stayed in the space for a long time were loyal to him. The primordial Sword Saint was a rare level-nine human expert. How could Zhao Hai let him go?
Of course, this didn’t mean that he didn’t want to help the Versailles clan. On the contrary, he would help the Versailles clan. Now that Ryan and the others were on the island of gold, Zhao Hai could guarantee their safety. Therefore, to the Versailles clan, whether or not they had a 9th rank expert on their side made no difference.
Furthermore, the Versailles family was in a similar situation as the icksa family. It could be said that they were not as good as the icksa family. The icksa family sent their elites, and they were led by the patriarch himself. On the other hand, the Versailles family sent their young men. Although they were full of vigor, they lacked experience in handling matters.
Under such circumstances, what the Versailles clan needed was not a powerful combatant of the ninth rank to hold the fort, but a stable environment, an environment where they could develop without worry.
When they arrived at the island of gold, Zhao Hai arranged a place for Ryan and the others to sit. Then, he asked for their opinion on whether they wanted to run their own business or help the Buda family manage the island of gold.
Of course, Zhao Hai couldn’t give them too high of a position. He only let them be ordinary office workers to gain some experience. If they wanted to do business, Zhao Hai could arrange a place for them.
Ryan was also a very smart person, especially now that her decision could affect the future of the Versailles family. Although Ryan did not say it, she understood that the chances of the Versailles family escaping this calamity were very small. They were very likely to be the last hope of the Versailles family.
It was because of this thought that Ryan would think carefully about everything he did. Now, Ryan really admired Zhao Hai. The Buda family’s situation back then was even worse than their current situation. However, Zhao Hai had changed the Buda family so much in just one year. This was too shocking.
Ryan thought for a moment and discussed with the people in the family. In the end, he decided to let a few older people do business on the island. This way, the Versailles family would have a fixed income. Moreover, the younger and inexperienced ones would help the Buda family do some things on the island and learn from their experience.
Zhao Hai was very much in favor of Ryan’s actions. Among the group of people from the Versailles family, there were a few who had experience in management. Before they came, they had done some business management in the family. Therefore, letting them run a business was the best choice. First, it could train them, and second, it could earn money for the Versailles family.
As for those younger ones, although they were carefully selected by their families, they didn’t have much experience. It was time for them to learn. At this time, letting them follow the island and learn from it was the best choice.
Zhao Hai immediately made arrangements for Ryan and the others. At the same time, Zhao Hai also approved a piece of land for them and built houses for them. This was also a request from Ryan. She did not want to live in the Naval base all the time.
Ryan’s appearance was quickly known by the people on the island. They had some understanding of the matters between the Versailles family and the Buda family, so they understood what it meant when they saw the people of the Versailles family appear on the island of gold.
Almost all the nobles on the continent would do the same thing as the Versailles family. When they encountered something impossible, they would send some of the elite children of the family to a safe place. This way, they could preserve a spark of fire for the family, and maybe one day, it could be reignited.
There was no other place more suitable than the island of gold. The Versailles family and the Buda family had a good relationship. On the island of gold, the Buda family would take care of the Versailles family. Moreover, with the Buda family’s current strength, they would not care about the Versailles family’s property. Therefore, the Versailles family could develop in the island of gold with peace of mind. Because of the developed commerce on the island of gold, they might even be able to develop well.
After Zhao Hai arranged everything, he didn’t care about Ryan and the others anymore. The business atmosphere on Golden Island was very good. There were very few scammers, because it was forbidden on Golden Island. If you cheated others, the Buda family would punish you and never let you do business on Golden Island.
Although Ryan and the others were newcomers, the people on the island knew about their relationship with the Buda family, so they naturally did not dare to do anything to them.
There was a reason why Zhao Hai didn’t care about ruien and the others. They would never grow up if they didn’t go through the storm. If he had to appear and help them settle everything, the Versailles family wouldn’t have any future.
What Zhao Hai needed to do now was to pay attention to the situation in the Duchy of Versailles. Almost all of the small nobles in the Duchy of Versailles had left. The branches of their families had also left under Ivan’s orders to help Ryan and the others at the island of gold. The only ones left in the Duchy of Versailles were the immediate family members and the Army of the Versailles family. The entire Duchy of Versailles seemed to have become a Dead City. There were almost no people in sight.
Zhao Hai was extremely impatient with the situation, but he had no choice. The surrounding noble territories of the Duchy of Versailles had large numbers of troops, but not a single soldier had stepped into the Duchy of Versailles. This made Zhao Hai feel extremely impatient.
Just as Zhao Hai was planning to enjoy the Duchy of Versailles in the origin space, kun suddenly sent him a message. The king of the Roson Empire was looking for Zhao Hai, asking him to return to Carson City.
Although Zhao Hai did not know what it was, he knew that the king would not look for him unless it was something important. Therefore, he immediately returned to Carson City from the medium and went to the castle.
Although he did not keep many people in the castle, there were many servants who cleaned it well. Zhao Hai returned to the castle to rest. The next day, he took a carriage to Carson City.
When Zhao Hai arrived at the Roson Empire’s Palace, he was immediately invited to the king’s study. As the son-in-law of the king, he naturally had to be given special treatment.
In the study, the king was reading some documents. Zhao Hai quickly stepped forward and bowed, ” “Greetings, father-in-law.”
The king raised his head and looked at Zhao Hai, ” “You’re here, sit.” Zhao Hai nodded and sat to the side. The king put down the documents and looked at Zhao Hai, ” “I heard that you have a good relationship with the human-beast hybrid clan?”
Zhao Hai nodded. &Quot; yes. I have some ties with the Tauren race, dog-headed people, and the black bear race. My relationship with The Wolfman race is also quite good. &Quot;
“Then do you know the true purpose of the orcs” attack on the mainland this time?”the king nodded and asked.
“Father-in-law, don’t you already know? The orcs attacked because the Church of Light cut off their food supply?”
“Is that really the only reason?” the king asked, frowning.
Zhao Hai laughed. &Quot; father-in-law, you think too much. The orcs are actually very easy to get along with. If the Church of Light had not cut off their food supply this time, causing a large-scale food shortage in the grasslands, they would not have started a war so easily. So, you don’t have to worry. &Quot;
The king sighed and said, ” I can’t help but worry. I heard that the number of troops that the beastmen have sent this time is not small. If they really destroy the Arkas Empire and attack the Roson Empire, then our losses will be huge. &Quot;
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, ” &Quot; father-in-law, you’re thinking too much. The Arkas Empire isn’t that easy to fight. Besides, with the lifeline Canyon, it won’t be easy for the orcs to attack. However, I have an idea. Father-in-law, we can save up some food for now. The orcs are attacking us for food. If they really destroy the Arkas Empire, we just have to hold them back for a while and then sell them food at a fair price. They’ll definitely retreat.”
“Are we admitting defeat to the orcs?” the king asked, frowning.
Zhao Hai smiled and said, ” this is only temporary. Besides, this may not necessarily happen. We are storing food now. After the war is over, because the Arkas Empire has been attacked, our production has been destroyed. After the war is over, there will definitely be fluctuations in the food supply. Even if it does not affect our Roson Empire, we will still earn a lot of money by selling the food we have stored. &Quot;
The king looked at Zhao Hai and smiled, ” “You’re a money-grubber kid. Hehe, but you’re right. There’s no harm in storing up some food. Alright, you don’t have to worry about this year’s matters. However, I still hope that if you have the opportunity, you can contact the orcs more and see where their bottom line is. It’ll be best if they don’t spread the flames of war to us.”
“Yes, father-in-law, I understand,” Zhao Hai nodded.
The king nodded and looked at Zhao Hai, ” “How’s your relationship with her? Why didn’t she come back to see me after we got married? I want to see if you’ve bullied her. If you dare to bully her, I won’t let you off.”
Zhao Hai smiled and bowed, ” &Quot; yes, don’t worry, father-in-law. I’ll ask Becky to come back tomorrow, but she’s very busy now. I don’t know if she has time. &Quot;
&Quot; I don’t care if she has time or not, ” the king snorted. &Quot; you must send her back tomorrow. &Quot;
Zhao Hai answered impatiently. He was not lying. Right now, the girls were indeed very busy. There were too many things to deal with. However, since the king had spoken, he did not dare to disobey.
