Chapter 837

The mineral resources of Wren empire are not barren, on the contrary, they are relatively rich. Although they are not comparable to the kingdom of grace, which is the richest in mineral resources, they are almost comparable to the kingdom of solant and the Empire of Ilus. Even the total reserves of iron ore are far higher than these two countries, and even far behind those small principalities.

However, due to the relatively backward metallurgical technology in Wren Empire, the utilization rate of mineral resources is very low. Although the mining efficiency is very low, a lot of mineral resources have been hoarded over time.

They can obtain development resources and wealth by exporting minerals like the kingdom of grace, but because magic metals are valuable strategic resources, ministers have always disagreed to export these resources. Therefore, the Ryan Empire has been hoarding mineral resources but does not export them.

Sit on the mountain empty and stare.

Tystro suddenly got up: "it turns out that your ultimate goal is for our magic metal mine!"

Fiona held out her hand: "otherwise, is there anything else in the Ryan empire that can be used as property mortgage? Huh?"

Oh, if you can guess, will you go around so many circles?

Magic metal mine?

Although that kind of thing is important, it is not very valuable for Ellington, who has developed universal alloy.

Yes, of course. It doesn't matter if you don't.

Tastrow sat down dejectedly: "no, no..."

Fiona deliberately stimulated him: "speaking, your second-class Asian women are very beautiful. If you are willing to do slave business, it's not impossible -"

"Shut up!"

Tystro's bear eyes were wide: "I will never let my people be slaves!"

"This is not good, that's not willing. Do you want us Datang chamber of Commerce to do charity?"

Tessro was silent for a moment, sighed and said: "... Let's change the conditions."

What does magic metal mean to prandal?

It means equipment advantage in war!

That's the future!

The significance of magic metal is too great. It is related to a country's future strategic position. It can never be transferred so easily. It's not a transaction. It's selling the country to the enemy.

It's strange that tastrow can promise.

But tastrow underestimated Donne's routine.

Because their purpose was not a magic metal mine from the beginning

"Unwilling to mortgage the magic metal mine?"

Fiona frowned: "with all due respect, your majesty tastrow, as far as we know, there should be rich reserves of magic iron and refined gold in the Ryan empire. I'm afraid there are only these magic metal mines in your hands."

"Impossible! I won't agree. You don't have to think about magic metal mines anymore!"

Tessro shook his head. It is impossible to transfer the magic metal mines. Those mines are the lifeblood of the Ryan empire.

"What can you do for mortgage replacement?"

"... five... No! A ten-year tax holiday!"

"Ten years of tax exemption! It's almost an unimaginable preferential policy!" said tastrow

"Ask yourself how much the business scale of Rehn empire can develop in ten years and how much money our Datang chamber of commerce can make here."

Fiona said very calmly, "frankly, even if you give us a 20-year tax holiday, considering the economic development, we can only agree to replace the debt of one billion gold coins at most."

"Then forty -"

In the middle of the conversation, testero suddenly shut up.

Even now, it is impossible to agree to a 40-year tax holiday. This kind of preference is too exaggerated.

Property mortgage... What else can be used as a mortgage?

Mine... Mine?

Testero suddenly said, "yes! In addition to the magic metal mine, we also have the magic crystal mine! I am willing to use the magic crystal mine as a mortgage!"

There are six small magic crystal mines, six medium-sized magic crystal mines and three magic crystal mines with large reserves in the Ryan Empire - all of which have been proved and even mined for some time.

However, the situation of the rein empire is worse than that of the Ilus empire. The magic crystals mined by the Ilus empire can be sold to the silver city through ronitant's trade route or used by the great nobles, but the rein empire can't do it at all, The magic crystal they dug out did not even have a market to digest - so after discovering the magic crystal vein and carrying out short-term mining work, these mines were completely shelved.

After all, the demand for magic crystals in the Rehn Empire itself is basically zero.

The magic crystal mine of the Ryan empire is also one of Donne's goals.

"Magic crystal mine is OK, but you know, the main market of magic crystal is basically only silver city. With the consumption capacity of Silver City, only the magic crystal mine produced by our Ilus empire is enough to meet the market demand. If we continue to expand production capacity here, it will only make this already saturated market cheaper."

Fiona began to stare and lie.

Although the city of silver was indeed a major consumer of magic crystals in the past, Ellington's magic energy industry has begun to develop and gradually covers the whole Ilus empire. The larger the scale, the greater the demand for magic crystals, and the larger the market will only be - naturally, as the demander, she will certainly not disclose her information to tastrow.

So tystro was completely fooled by Fiona's routine.

"Our magic crystal mine is valued at billions of gold coins -"

"That's just mining value, not market value. I don't want to popularize the difference between mining value and market value."

Fiona waved her hand, interrupted him, and said faintly, "it's a good idea to replace debt with mines, but it's not enough just magic crystal mines. If you don't want to mortgage and replace with magic metal mines, use ordinary metal mines, such as iron ore and copper mine."

Iron and copper?

Tessro hesitated for a moment. The magic metal is related to the equipment of the country's high-end combat effectiveness, while the iron ore is related to the equipment of the soldiers at the bottom. It's a little painful to sell it like this

"Well, iron ore and copper ore!"

As soon as tystro gritted his teeth, he didn't want to drag on. In fact, he had no choice. He had only these cards in his hand. He either squeezed them in his hand and waited for death, or he played them out. There was still a glimmer of vitality.

Tystro originally wanted to take out the map and take out the previously explored iron and copper mines for Donne to choose, but when he thought about it carefully, he suddenly burst into a cold sweat.

The mines are all marked on the map of Ryan empire. To show them means that the map of Ryan Empire and the branches of various cities are all exposed under his eyes!

Although I get along well with Donne now, and there is no idea of war between the two sides, tastrow doesn't know whether Donne's purpose is a map or not, but he resolutely gave up the idea.

What a cunning and sinister human! I dare not be careless!

Tastrow took sharp teeth and several Orc ministers went out to discuss for a while. When he came back, tastrow's face was very calm.

He said: "Now the mines that have been explored clearly by the rein Empire have owners, so they can't be assigned to you. In this way, I can give your majesty Donne an unrestricted mining certificate. As long as you have this permission, you can explore minerals in the area outside the military restricted zone of the rein Empire without restriction, and you can mine by yourself after the exploration. We only collect 100% of the minerals How about 30% as tax and the remaining 70% all belong to you? "

Unrestricted mining certificate!?

Donne was shocked. This guy is going to bleed!

Although there is 30% tax, don't underestimate such a certificate, which means that the holder bought all the mineral resources of Ryan Empire at only 30% of the price! If a mining tycoon gets this certificate, he may be excited about cerebral hemorrhage!

You should know that in prandal, the general market in the mining industry has to pay heavy taxes. After you explore the ore vein, you can start mining only after you have worked hard to obtain the king's mining license, but this mining license generally collects half of the mining volume as tax.

In other words, if you dig out ten kilograms of ore, five kilograms will be handed over to the state treasury, but the remaining five kilograms are not all yours. In addition to the mining tax levied by the king, there is also the 30% tax of the Lord, that is, only two kilograms belong to you.

It looks cruel, doesn't it? But this is the reality under the extremely backward productivity.

Tastrow gave the unrestricted mining certificate of 30% tax. According to the resource reserves in the Ryan Empire, the value of this certificate now exceeds one billion gold coins. If it takes a few years, it will have to be doubled!

Promise him!

Donne hinted to Fiona that this condition was already quite good.

But

"Your Majesty, the 30% tax is too high."

Fiona secretly waved to Donne and continued, "you don't do anything. You just use a piece of paper and get 30% of the mineral income in vain. However, we have to run around looking for minerals and mining. The cost is very high. I think the tax rate should be reduced to 20%

"20%? Too low!"

Tastrogo shook his head: "this is an unrestricted mining certificate! Your majesty Donne is so powerful and has a long life. He has been alive. How many mineral resources will our Ryan Empire lose if you continue to mine? The 30% tax is very low! And this certificate can only be used by you, not transferred or sold!"

Fiona was surprised. She found that she seemed to understand something wrong

The "unrestricted" in the unrestricted mining Certificate in tastrow refers to lifelong unrestricted mining!
