The younger brothers had no money, so they had no choice but to ruin it. The task of filling the hole fell on the boss.

The aristocrats of the southeastern provinces stepped into a trap too deep and left too big a hole. Even the wealthy and powerful Dalton family could not afford to take the blame.

As a last resort, Earl Pierce had no choice but to bite the Locknard family, hoping to get the person directly responsible to share the losses.

The bandwagon effect was obvious. After someone took the lead, all the nobles present jumped out and claimed damages from Duke Pias.

…

"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment. The Locknard family is certainly to blame for this incident. It is natural for them to bear the responsibility.

But the reality has to be considered now. The biggest problem at present is that profiteers are hoarding goods, causing prices to skyrocket.

To solve this problem, I think Earl Hudson has a better way!"

From the moment the Duke of Cavadia stood up, Hudson knew that what was supposed to come would eventually come. But he didn't expect that it would come so crudely and simply.

"Don't look at me like that. Everyone must know what the trading platform represents.

If anyone has the confidence to do it, then do it yourself, I haven't lived enough yet.

The second thing is that profiteers are not profiteers. You should know how the goods on the black market come from.

After such a long period of scattered transactions, most of the strategic materials flowing out of the army were scattered and sold to mercenaries. It is estimated that they have been almost consumed by now.

Businessmen are not fools. Even if they have hoards, they cannot have too much. Before this, no one knew that there would be fools who would report to the Alliance Council.

With just the few goods on the black market, it is simply impossible to plug the holes for everyone, and it may not even be able to fill even a quarter of the holes.

If we want to balance the accounts, we must have new sources of goods. It is too late to transport them from the rear. Everyone should know who can sell strategic materials now.

There are a total of two options, either you can use your own connections to find ways to purchase strategic materials from them, or you can let businessmen do the transit.

Of course, if anyone thinks he is strong enough, he can ignore the will of the coalition forces, or he can consider some idiot's proposal."

Hudson mocked unceremoniously.

How could he be unprepared for daring to set up business in the black market? This kind of shady business is destined to be hidden in the dark and cannot be verified.

Virtual reality, real reality, virtual reality.

No one can figure out how many forces there are behind the trading platform unless Hudson himself tells it.

Just like now, he can unscrupulously take advantage of the coalition forces. If you want to take the opportunity to put pressure on him, it is just a joke.

The most direct characteristic of a great noble is that he has a big family and a big business. When doing things, you need to look forward and backward, and you cannot just follow your temper.

Even if you want to overturn the table, you have to look at who is sitting on the table first. There are many sources of black market goods, and Hudson is engaged in vests and business associations, who can tell them apart?

Including the sales employees at the trading center, they don't know who they are working for.

We haven't even figured out who the real owner of the goods is, so naturally no one will act rashly.

If you accidentally grab the wrong person and hit the iron plate, you will have to pay a bloody price.

Staring at Hudson fiercely, Duke Kavadia suppressed his anger. Reason told him that now was not the time to fall out.

Deep down in his heart, he was already scolding himself for being stupid. He didn't even understand the enemy's trump card, so he foolishly ran out to stand up for his allies.

Now the topic has been successfully changed, but the way everyone looks at him has also changed. That look of care for the mentally retarded really made him unhappy.

There is no doubt that what happened today will have a huge impact on his reputation.

Being labeled as "stupid", his appeal in the aristocratic circle will inevitably be greatly reduced in the future.

It's a pity that after analyzing the sequelae, it doesn't mean that he can counterattack. The offensive he prepared so painstakingly was defused by Hudson before it had time to ferment.

The next question everyone is considering is no longer whether to shut down the black market and seize back the materials previously sold; rather, it is about finding a way for the black market merchants to continue their efforts and raise more strategic materials for consumption.

The price issue is only secondary. The key is to have enough strategic materials on the market to help them cover the gap.

If you want to extract strategic materials from the coalition forces, you don't have to be rich.

People also need to bear responsibility for falsely reporting battle losses. Especially within a short period of time, it increases the risk.

The nobles who cherish their feathers will simply ignore them. After all, by doing this kind of business, you are exposing your own secrets.

The most suitable operation is to let businessmen with background do the transfer. The specific operation is not important, the key is to have strategic materials.

"If you don't have any better suggestions, then let's follow Earl Hudson's suggestions!

In short, everyone must plug the holes they have made as soon as possible. This is also what His Majesty the King means.

The investigation team sent by the kingdom will arrive in ten days. I hope that everyone will have filled the gap by then, saving us all from being disgraced."

Marquis James on the side took advantage of the situation and added.
