Chapter 21: Hotel Concept
Cage asked Watson to post a task in the Mercenary Union: "Two big-eyed golden eagles, no matter how big or small, alive, a reward of 50,000 gold coins." Few people spend a lot of money on monsters now, because in addition to being difficult to capture, they are not very useful. Generally, they capture the cubs of monsters with combat effectiveness. Generally, the nobles issue these orders. In order to increase their sense of security, they train many cubs from childhood.
The big-eyed golden eagle is not a very powerful monster. It is about level 5, has the ability of wind magic, and has average attack power. The difficulty lies in the fact that the place to capture is generally on cliffs, which is very dangerous. If it is an adult golden eagle, the individual is generally very large, with a wingspan of up to two meters, and the flying height is also very high. Generally, it captures small animals on the ground for food. Of course, the stronger ones will also capture larger monsters like magic pigs as food. The attack method is generally simple. In addition to the magic wind blade, there are only mouths and claws as tools for attack. The price Cage posted was still very high, almost three times its own price. The only difficulty was that it needed two alive, which was the difficulty of catching them.
Cage also began to plan to help the couple Djokovic to open a tavern. He must do what he promised. This was Cage's creed and code of conduct. After being raised in the palace for half a month, Djokovic's body was basically recovered. Now he is practicing with House. After all, the better the body, the longer he lives! Dena was not used to living in the palace. She was bored doing nothing all day. She was used to doing housework. Now she was uncomfortable doing nothing.
Cage was also very troubled these days. The main reason came from the pressure from Princess Jenna. Although Jenna didn't dare to do anything to Cage, she was at least the mother of this body. It was absolutely impossible to turn against him. Jenna was jealous of Cage's business, but she could only covet it, not rob it. She didn't have any strength to pull teeth out of the tiger's mouth among many tigers. The little bit of shares she was forced to buy some time ago has made her earn back, and she has also made a lot of profits, so her mind has naturally become active. She knows that Cage is not the Cage who was bullied in the palace. Now he is a wealthy man and a very powerful person. Xiao Hei beside him is the best proof. Not to mention that other forces are jealous of him, even the king of the empire is jealous. If he has such a monster, it means strength to him.
"Cage, I don't think you will watch your grandfather and uncle live in poverty like this!" Princess Jenna stared at Cage's eyes and said.
Grandfather and uncle? Cage doesn't even know what they look like. Does poverty have anything to do with him? It is estimated that Jenna wants to expand his power and make his family rich.
"If there is anything, mother, just tell me." Cage still smiled slightly. Jenna could not see any dissatisfaction or unhappiness on his face.
"Grandpa and uncle hope to manage the polo team."
"Do they want to set up a team? That's no problem, the league is very welcome!" Cage's smile made Jenna angry, but she couldn't show it on the surface. Now she has to ask for help, so she can only be humble.
"They don't have that much money to set up a team now. Can you let them manage your team? You have a lot of affairs. If someone manages it for you, you can relax, right?" Jenna said it simply. Would you be willing to hand over the team you worked so hard to build? That's a job that makes a lot of money. I've never seen such a way to cut off someone's wealth.
"I really want someone to manage it for me, but Prince Martial and Brother Stad asked me to manage it, which makes me very embarrassed. They spoke strongly, and I have no choice. If my mother can do the work of the two of them, I have no problem." Shifting responsibility is Cage's best skill. I don't dare to confront you, so you can play with the other two big guys.
Looking at Cage's smiling face, Jenna really wanted to slap him twice. If she could deal with those two people, why would she bother looking for him? Martier is the king's man, and Stad is the most likely to inherit the throne. They have great power in the court. Who dares to fight with them? They are looking for death.
"Cage, you can't watch your grandfather and uncle starve to death!" Jenna couldn't get any benefits from her words, so she had to admit defeat and beg Cage instead.
"Of course not, but now all my money is invested in casinos, clubs and horse clubs. There is a project I want to work with someone."
"It doesn't matter, how much you need, I have it here." Jenna's eyes lit up. This is a good opportunity. Cage's concession made her overjoyed. She even felt that Cage was telling the truth just now, not acting. "Tell me, what is the project?"
"I plan to open the largest hotel in the imperial capital."
"Hotel, there are too many hotels in the imperial capital, it's hard to make money." Jenna was a little disappointed. There are too many hotels in the imperial capital, not counting some taverns, there are tens of thousands of them, it's impossible to make much money.
"The hotel I opened is different from others. It integrates entertainment, food, and accommodation. It is the best hotel and will become the landmark building of the entire imperial capital."
"Oh." Jenna was a little interested. Since it is the largest, it must have its own characteristics and must be different from others. "Tell me more about it."
"First of all, let's talk about accommodation. How many merchants are going in and out of the imperial capital now? Are they short of money? No, but there is no hotel in the imperial capital that satisfies them, because meals and accommodation need to be found separately. To deal with different guests, they must find different places. Do the nobles in the imperial capital need to stay in hotels? They didn't need to before, but now they do. Why? Because they need to adapt to places where people of their level can play. Do the officials of the empire need hotels? Yes, why?" Cage instilled the design concept of the five-star hotel in his previous life into Jenna. Under Cage's deception, Jenna gradually understood why hotels are so important and he wanted to integrate more functions into them.
"Okay, how much money does this hotel need? I can give it to you first. You don't need to pay a penny, and I'll give you 20% of the shares. How about it?" Jenna understood how to exchange.
"It will take about 300,000 gold coins, and some more will need to be invested in the later stage, but you can slowly join in from the profits." Cage said with a smile. Hotels can indeed make money, but Cage is not interested. Since someone can give him money, why not do it, and he can also take care of these people's face. "Then I will thank you, mother."
"You deserve it." Every word of Jenna's seemed to pop out from between his teeth. Seeing his mother, who was only thirty years old and still beautiful, on the throne, Cage wanted to laugh. How could he not be happy to give money to others foolishly? It seems that Jenna is not stupid. She knows that she can't do anything without him. "I will let your uncle and grandfather find you tomorrow. I'm a little tired!"
"Yes, mother, please relax. I will definitely do this well." Cage wanted to laugh when he saw Jenna, who was a little discouraged in the battle of wits. According to his psychological age, Cage is much older than Jenna. Unfortunately, she is his biological mother in this life. Anyway, there is still some incense in it.
Cage returned home in a good mood. Now he was not interested in guessing what these people were thinking. The most important thing was that he was in a good mood. The next day, Cage was playing with Xiao Hei at home. Watson came to report that his grandfather and uncle had arrived. Cage asked Watson to let them in. A skinny old man in his sixties and a young man in his thirties with oily hair and powdered face came in. These were probably his grandfather and uncle. The old man's eyes flashed from time to time. He must be a smart person, otherwise he would not have gotten to this point and sent his daughter to the palace. Cage was surprised that such an old man could give birth to a daughter as beautiful as Jenna. Looking at his uncle next to him, Cage probably understood that this old man had the ability to find a beautiful wife and give birth to such a beautiful seed.
Cage still knew his mother's family. It was a rookie two hundred years ago. He was a general under the Bauhinia family at that time. He accumulated merits and became a noble. It can be said that he went from a slave to a general. He was quite good at business. After a hundred years of development, he could be regarded as a famous noble. However, his grandfather's grandfather was a prodigal son, which made the family fall into decline. After two generations of business, it barely reached this point. Now he hopes to use Jenna's power to reproduce the glory of the day. To reproduce the glory, in addition to power, it is money. As a noble, as long as you have money, you can do a lot of things.
"Marquis Conse and Viscount Bird are here." The waiter outside called out the names of the two people loudly.
"It's grandpa and uncle, come in, come in." Cage walked down from his seat and went to the door, smiling and friendly. Bird didn't see the cunningness his sister said on Cage's face.
"Don't bother your highness." Conse hurriedly shook Cage's hand, looking particularly affectionate. If others didn't know, they would think that they had a very good relationship. No one would know that this was their first meeting. Conse was an old fox after all. No matter how young the prince was, he was older than him, the marquis. Even if he was a grandfather, he had to know how to respect people of high status. What's more, Cage now had considerable strength, and he couldn't lose his manners and leave a bad impression.
