Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!-Chapter 494 Negotiations Will Go MY Way!

"Look about the possibilities!"

"There's no way I am not getting a piece of this either."

"If we could make everything in the dungeon into a gigantic farm, imagine the profits!"

"Those from the Goldsand Confederation won't be always manipulating us anymore either…"

"We must definitely take this dungeon!"

"Enough!"

Aquamarine quickly shut down all the Viscounts, who were mostly all young. She seemed to have enough authority to even do that… The only thing left is to reprimand the King or something, but the King seemed to not have come due to health problems and had decided to leave it all to his children to handle.

So literally all the Viscounts were princes and princesses as well, we were all surrounded by the royal family of this country discussing over my dungeon as if it were a big cake where everyone wanted a big slice of it.

"No matter how much you discuss against one another the dungeon still doesn't belong to any of you. It belongs to Maria according to the laws established in this country." Aquamarine said.

"That's right. If you ever want to do something with it, you'll have to first convince Maria, stop fighting against one another as if you already have the dungeon in your pockets." Said Adamas.

The Viscounts quickly directed their gazes at me, I felt slightly nervous.

"How much then?" A green haired young dwarf said.

"How much for what?" I asked.

"For selling the dungeon, we can buy it. There's nothing money cannot buy." Said another.

"Ugh, guys, sorry to break your bubble but I am not going to be bought with money. I also don't plan to sell my dungeon. I will never give you any of its rights either. It is mine." I said.

"EH?!"

"Then why are we even here if you're going to be so greedy?!"

"What a waste of my time!"

"Don't you understand this could save all the people here?!"

"Yeah I do." I said. "But I also understand you were all drooling over the profits it could generate. You guys are also in fault for not letting the commoners enjoy the same food products you do by making everything overly expensive. People can only eat beans mushrooms and meat now, and barely at that."

"Well that's because they're commoners, they simply can't afford it! But with the dungeon things might change, the production of things will increase to the point prices will go down, everyone will be able to afford it!" Said Sapphire.

"Brother, let it go." Sighed Ruby. "Maria, what are your conditions? What do you want? We can give you anything if you can let us create farms there." ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

"Everything." I said with a smile.

"Eh?"

Everyone looked at me with fear except my own party, even Helga.

"My Dungeon… It's all mine, you're never getting a piece of it." I said.

"Y-You greedy woman!"

"Then why are you even here?!"

"Tch…"

"If things come to this, we might have to take… some more extreme procedures."

"What are you saying?!" Aquamarine quickly reprimanded a white haired Viscount. "It's obvious Maria is implying she's not selling her land, but I am sure she has other plans if she's here with us."

"Indeed, I do!"

I quickly crossed my arms as I closed my eyes, everyone quickly fell silent as they glanced at me.

"It is pretty simple, you'll give me the funds, personnel, and other things to create enormous farms and then we'll split the produced products. I just want a part of it for my own village and to sell to other countries to earn more money. I have some connections with the Albraun Kingdom, believe it or not." I said.

"Huh, so this is more like an investment…" Ruby said while rubbing her small chin. "Very well, what's your plan then? How much of that production will I get if I back you up?"

"Hmm… Well, this country is way larger than mine. My population is quite small, but let's leave it at 40% for you, the other 60% is mine, if you want more from my stash, you'll have to buy it." I said.

"Huh, I see… Well, 40% of all production is certainly immense…" Ruby said. "I guess you were just teasing us, you're really a nice person at the end, someone truly greedy would probably give us something even lesser than that and we would have to suck it up."

"Don't worry, the production will be dependent in your aid and funds, although I've got some of my personnel that will also work there to boost plant growth and their richness. Including Emeraldine and I." I said with a smile. "We have the [Agriculture] Skill and we are both proficient at Alchemy, using it we could even modify plants to yield more crops, be richer, and so on."

"R-Right…" Emeraldine said. "I suppose we can do that."

The other viscounts were greedier than Ruby, they wanted the whole dungeon rights for themselves and have the production controlled by them. How I proposed things, the production will be all handled by me, and even the distribution. They'll still end up just buying things from someone else, not so different from what they had been doing.

"Of course those that decide to become my partner in this business will receive special benefits." I said. "Such as a 10% of the profit in money I make my selling my own part of the harvest, and so on. this 10% will be distributed by everyone that joins, so not everyone will get a 10%, the same goes for the 40% of harvested crops, so I suggest you all to join into a confederation of sorts and handle all profits and harvested crops to the people, which is your primary target, is it not? If you hoard all things for yourselves I might even change my mind and end our business."

The viscounts were all shocked, I had them all dancing in the palm of my hands. They had no other choice but to agree or they would be losing a lot in the long run. 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮

"I… I accept."

"Me too…"

"Sigh… There's no other way."

"Fine…"

"Thanks for your business!" I chuckled.
