The small building fell into silence, and no one spoke for a long time.

The hot tea on the table gradually cooled down, and Wu felt that it was a waste.

"How about changing the topic."

Father Puji picked up the tea cup and took a sip. It was like afternoon tea between old friends, chatting about something casually.

"Underneath the Kingdom of God, there is an iron mine that has been abandoned for many years and is owned by the Maria family."

The trouble with the Inquisition has been resolved.

At least there is nothing wrong with the idea provided by Luden. The rest can be left to the Inquisition.

iron ore?

If you want to talk about this, Luden won’t be sleepy!

The predecessor of Shenbang was the steel capital of the Kingdom of Qiyun. The entire city was built on steel and prospered on the basis of steel production.

The iron ore here is of very high quality, has low phosphorus content, is buried shallowly, and can even be mined in the open!

However, due to Luden's crazy expansion of iron ore production capacity in those years, and the fact that the dwarves are indeed good at mining, the easiest iron ore to collect has been dug out, and the cost and difficulty of further mining have increased slightly.

This is probably like digging a hole on the front road, and suffering disaster on the back road...

Logically speaking, the mining of iron ore should be in the hands of the Holy Family, and would also be supervised by the Grand Inquisitor and the Heretic Tribunal. It would have nothing to do with Luden, a citizen of the Kingdom of God.

Why is Father Puji suddenly talking about this?

Moreover, judging from Shenbang's productivity development level and technological level, iron ore is an important strategic resource.

Why are good iron mines abandoned?

One doubt after another arose in Luden's mind, and he soon guessed a possibility.

Father Puji nodded, confirming Luden's guess.

"Yes, the iron mine controlled by the distinguished Saint family is, for some reason, involved with the legendary devil. There are even records in ancient books that this iron mine once belonged to the devil. The whole thing is due to the passage of time.

The missing area is still surrounded by thick fog. Before more convincing evidence appears, we can easily conclude that abandoning this iron mine cursed by the devil is the most beneficial choice for the Maria family."

here we go again...

Father Puji said a lot, but he only meant the same thing:

Iron ore is cursed to be hot!

Or the curse of the devil!

For the Maria family, in the face of the top priority of preserving the name of the saint, they have to put aside everything.

The Maria family naturally wants to get rid of this iron mine, and is even willing to give it to other saint families for free.

No one wants it!

This thing, in the hands of the Saint family, is a reminder of death.

Sold to wealthy businessmen?

Put aside for the time being, who can have the financial resources to purchase iron ore and mine it.

The Holy Family will never let the iron ore mining rights go out.

Not to mention, most of the wealthy businessmen in the Kingdom of God are related to the Saint family, and they dare not touch this bad luck.

After looking through the entire Divine Kingdom, there are not many candidates who are rich and not afraid of the devil's name.

Luden smiled knowingly and said nothing.

Father Puji did not use long sentences this time, but said straightforwardly,

"The Maria family is going bankrupt."

In the two short-selling wars, Luden shorted grain once and shorted a blessing contract, causing the Saint family to suffer heavy losses.

Normally, a loss of this level would only scratch the surface, but would not cause any damage to the Saint family.

However, in the plummeting like a stampede of the blessing contract, the Maria family ran the slowest.

This is equivalent to them suffering most of the losses!

Wealthy businessmen related to Maria also used a lot of leverage to buy blessing contracts and suffered heavy losses.

The failure of Vader Maria made the already precarious family even worse.

Among the twelve saintly descendant families, the Maria family has almost reached its end and has begun to sell off its ancestral property.

Luden did not continue to circle around and went straight in.

"How much?"

Luden has the courage to mine iron ore.

He is an innocent man and has never been afraid of bearing the name of a devil.

Luden agreed to the justice's relief to 60,000 people.

With Shenbang's technological level, iron ore is an absolutely labor-intensive industry, and the profits generated can allow Luden to further expand scale production.

There is only one question, how much does iron ore cost?

He will not do business that is losing money.

Father Phuket reported the number he had prepared long ago, "One million meters."

One million meters and 4,167 small gold coins can give the Maria family, which is on the verge of bankruptcy, a chance to breathe.

At the same time, it can also free them from the trouble of the Devil's Iron Mine.

Win-win!

The Maria family won twice.

After confirming the scale of the iron mine, Luden did not hesitate and simply agreed.

"Someone will send money to the Greedy Palace this afternoon. I think that an upright citizen of the Kingdom of God mining iron ore will not be falsely accused of being a devil by some people with ulterior motives, right?"

Father Puji, who stood up and put on his windbreaker, nodded and replied,

"Yes, Mr. Ludden."

After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving Luden thinking in the small building.

One million miso... One million miso...

By shorting twice, Ludden did make a little bit of money.

But Luden never forgot that this was something he had to share with others!

If he eats all the profits in one go, Luden will only push himself to death.

Since he doesn't want to die, he must balance the forces of all parties.

Justice Grotny used low-quality food to share part of the miso from Luden.

Justice Gurread froze the security deposit on the Ludden Fortune contract.

These are just small things.

The real trouble is the Isa family!

So far, the old lady Isa has not settled her accounts with Luden.

Confusing accounts are the most troublesome accounts.

Once El Isa passes the Saint Trial, the cooperation between Luden and the Isa family will come to an end.

Both parties are well aware of this.

The most troublesome thing is rescuing 60,000 people...

Rubbing his temples, Luden sighed and ordered,

"Prepare the car and go to the Palace of Greed."

...

The Palace of Greed, Luden's favorite and most disgusted place.

Every time you see Justice Gureed, you need to pay 20,000 meters.

When he handed over the money, Luden's heart was bleeding!

He happened to catch up with Justice Gurid's lunch. The entire long table was filled with sumptuous food, which was particularly tempting.

Under Luden's repeated hints, Justice Gurid impatiently rang the bell and asked the servant to bring an extra set of tableware.

Luden felt like he was eating a buffet worth 20,000 meters, and one meal was worth 416 grams of gold.

What a luxury!

"Judge Gu Ruide, I have also done some research on the ancient Qiyun language."

Luden took a sip of sake and said seriously,
To be continued...
