Chapter 159 The whereabouts of the soldiers
Hundred thousand gold?
The entire conference room suddenly became boiling.
What is the concept of 100,000 gold? You should know that Fang Xingjian’s monthly subsidy is only 50 gold, and all the expenditures of the entire college in a month are only about 10,000 gold. One hundred thousand gold is almost equivalent to the expenditures of the entire college in a year. What is this concept?
This is equivalent to double the budget of Cost Academy. So how much more training resources can be purchased? How much more bonus can the instructors increase their salary and bonus? How much can various equipment and training facilities be improved?
This is simply a huge sum of money. How many people can ignore such a huge sum of money?
Especially to absorb private funds for college construction, instead of just asking the country for money, this is a way that scholars and government officials have always praised. What a great achievement is 100,000 yuan.
After 100,000 gold came in, what would Edgar, who had mastered half of the budget of the entire college at once?
At this moment, Edgar was proud and seemed to have picked up all the faces he had lost in the past. He looked full of energy and seemed to be reborn.
Almost everyone present changed their faces, even Jackson, who looked at Edgar with a serious face and said slowly: "Yellowstone Chamber of Commerce? Why haven't I heard of the name of this Chamber of Commerce?"
Edgar smiled and said, "This is a newly established chamber of commerce. There are several nobles from the imperial capital. I had a great conversation with them. They just came to Coster and wanted to contribute to it and integrate into Coster's construction."
Of course no one would believe these nonsense. In fact, although behind the Yellowstone Chamber of Commerce are several nobles in the imperial capital, they are all down-and-out nobles who cannot survive in the imperial capital. The real source of their funds is Green Fei, which comes from the Aloron family where Cynthia is located.
Cynthia and her husband Zakov died at the hands of Fang Xingjian, and the Arowron family naturally held a grudge against Fang Xingjian.
Especially their head of the family, Frank, who is Cynthia's younger brother, but he was raised by Cynthia almost since childhood. He has a relationship with Cynthia as his half-sister and half-mother, and he almost treats Cynthia as his most beloved elder.
If this is not the case, it is impossible to develop Cynthia's arrogant and domineering temperament.
'He killed my sister, killed my loved one in my life, how could he do such a cold-blooded and cruel thing?'
‘What should I do with my sister’s children? Her youngest daughter is only twelve years old. How should I tell her that her mother was killed by a poor man, a mob, or a beast?’
Fang Xingjian killed Cynthia, which was equivalent to killing Frank's mother. How could he not be angry and how could he not want to take revenge?
But Tracia's affairs were right in front of him, and there was an association's monitoring. As the head of the family, Frank could not be as impulsive and ignorant as Cynthia and Rebecca, so his choice was money.
In the first step, he took out 100,000 gold coins, and even sold some of his industries for this purpose. Then he found two down-and-out nobles to set up a chamber of commerce and donated money to the Royal College of Cost.
Of course, 100,000 gold coins cannot be given in one go, and any sponsorship or investment cannot be given in one go, and they are all grants time and time again.
And through repeated grants, he would gradually gain the right to speak in the Royal Academy of Cost.
He wanted to marginalize Fang Xingjian little by little, from a genius student to an ordinary student, to a backward student, and even become an assistant teacher, and even be kicked out of the academy. He wanted Fang Xingjian to become more and more depressed and marginalized, and finally be killed by him in an unknown corner.
For example, a stinky ditch in a civilian area, a back alley in a tavern, or a small wood in the suburbs.
Of course, this process may take a lot of time and money, but as long as he can avenge his sister, he doesn't care.
Of course, this money will not simply fall into the water, and can be used to obtain discourse money in the district college, and of course it can also be used to seek rewards.
And this time the investment of 100,000 yuan naturally also comes with Edgar's judgment.
Edgar looked at the dean and said confidently: "As long as I am here to supervise the finances of the entire college, they will be willing to donate the 100,000 yuan in batches. Dean, I hope that for the future of the entire college, you can temporarily give up interfering in the financial situation of the college and let us give justice to the students."
Edgar was very confident, not because he had hooked up with Frank, not because he had 100,000 gold chips in his hand, nor because of Fang Xingjian's failure or Jackson's fault.
In the end, these can only be regarded as hits by sticks. His real killer move is Jackson himself.
Jackson, you are indeed an excellent dean, a dean who can give up your future, sacrifice your cultivation time, or even pay out of your own pocket for the sake of the students.
But because of this, your weaknesses are simply too obvious.
For this 100,000 gold, you will definitely agree.
Because the entire academy is much more important in your mind than Fang Xingjian.
Jackson pondered for a long time and sighed slowly: "Can you let me talk to the president of the Yellowstone Chamber of Commerce?"
Edgar laughed: "Of course." That guy is just a puppet. No matter how beautiful you say, he will never agree to your request.
"Director, after the meeting, I will help you arrange a meeting with the president of the Huangshi Chamber of Commerce. Next, there is another thing. The superior remains of the remains of the god of bones created by Master Xuexiu Deweite for our college is already on the way, but the belonging of this remains of the god of bones..."
Jackson frowned and said, "How do you know about this?"
Edgar smiled and said without saying anything, but continued: "Although this superior bone magic weapon belongs to Fangxing Sword in name, we all know that Fangxing Sword's current state is not suitable for having such a magic weapon. For a blind person, having such a magic weapon is not only dangerous to him, but also to the people around him."
"The materials for this superior magic weapon are all from Huang Lin and Lord Coster." Jackson glared at the other party and said, "We have no right to deal with it."
"I know, I just want to say that this magic weapon is a waste for us by putting it in Fang Xingjian's hands." He smiled: "So I hope to borrow this magic weapon from him, well... it's calculated at 10 gold a day, what about it? Of course, we will pay the bill together after the state selection is completed. We have too many places to spend money before, and I hope Fang Xingjian can understand this."
"After all, the state will be selected in four months. We must find all the ways to increase the combat effectiveness of the students. If this superior magic weapon is used by Hamil or Ralph, it can greatly increase their chances of passing the state."
The price is not high, but it is definitely not low. Looking at the instructors around who were deeply aware of it and nodded in agreement, Jackson closed his eyes but could not find any reason to refuse.
Edgar laughed and said to himself: "This money... Humph... Do you really think I will pay it? He has to wait for the state election to be over for a few months. Under my operation, who will remember this blind man then?"
‘Jackson, I will pick up the faces you grabbed in the past one by one.’
...
On the other hand, Lord Cost also came to the academy. Looking at Lilia who was busy like a maid, a hint of regret flashed in his eyes.
He pulled the other party out and said coldly: "What are you still here for?"
"I want to take care of the teacher." Lilia said stubbornly: "The teacher is blind now, so I can't just leave him alone."
"He needs your care?" Cost said with a grudge: "There are four months left to choose the district. Look at what you're doing all day?"
Lilia lowered her head and said weakly, "I decided not to participate in this district election."
