"It's okay. I don't mind. We're friends, so let me protect you from these dangerous things…"
Ye Tian smiled, patting Philip's shoulder lightly. His words moved him greatly, especially when he heard the word 'friend'.
"My old friend, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first…"
Ye Tian said goodbye to Philip.
"No, Lord Satan, there's something I want to discuss with you. Please come in!”
Phillip hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth.
"Alright then!"
Ye Tian didn't refuse. Phillip had helped him so much, after all. If it wasn't something too difficult, he wouldn't refuse, so he led the three girls into Phillip's house.
"My dear friend, if you need anything, just let me know!”
Sitting down, Diana poured Ye Tian a glass of wine.
"Lord Satan, are you interested in the mine?”
Phillip decided not to test Ye Tian and asked directly.
"Mine? That means a huge amount of wealth. I don't think anyone would reject wealth. My dear friend, did you manage to get a mine?”
Ye Tian narrowed his eyes. This guy couldn't be so generous as to give him a mine, could he?
"Lord Satan, I really did manage to get my hands on a mine. It's an iron ore mine, and the content is very high. However, I encountered quite a bit of trouble. Otherwise, I would have directly developed it…"
Philip smiled bitterly.
"What trouble?"
Ye Tian's eyes flashed with surprise as he asked Philip.
Iron ore!
In this era, the smelting technology of the entire world was very backward and low. All ironware was basically at a relatively low smelting temperature. Iron ore was reduced to solid state to obtain sponge iron, and then forged into various iron products that one needed.
The production was extremely low.
The so-called iron ores were all iron ores that contained iron ores.
If Ye Tian could build an iron mine and use more advanced smelting techniques to refine iron, he would be able to produce more iron ore and even refine steel.
At that time, even if he couldn't use that much steel, he could control the economic lifeline of the entire Roman Republic through the steel and various businesses and industries he controlled.
"It's like this. Previously, for some vanity, I bought an iron mine with no development value from Young Master Sura. However, under my persistence and hard work in the past two years, I actually managed to develop an iron mine. Not only is the iron content high, but the storage is also very large!!”
When Phillip said the last part, excitement and pride flashed in his eyes.
"It's just a good thing! With this mountain, it meant that great wealth had begun to wave at you!”
Ye Tian smiled.
"Yes, I think so too.”
Philip smiled bitterly and then cursed,""But those damn nobles are a bunch of vampires, and they're fickle and shameless!!”
" Uh…I didn't mean to offend you, Lord Satan. You should know that you weren't included among the nobles I scolded…"
After he was done cursing, Philip realized that the person sitting in front of him was also a young noble.
"It's fine. You can continue scolding him, and you're right! Even though I am a noble, I have never considered myself a noble…at least, I am not a noble like them.”
Ye Tian was in a good mood. When Philip scolded the nobles, he didn't react at all, knowing that Philip wasn't scolding him.
"However, for you to be so angry, it must be because the Sura Family wants to share half of the benefits with you, right?”
Ye Tian smiled sympathetically.
"My dear Lord Satan, if that was the case, I wouldn't be so angry and helpless. The Sura Family doesn't want to split the mine with me, but they intend to take back the entire mine for the entire year!”
Philip said through gritted teeth.
"So shameless?"
Ye Tian was stunned. Was there such a shameless clan?
"Yes, he's so shameless! The explanation they gave was that Young Master Sura had no right to dispose of their family's mine, so he planned to return the original price I gave him!”
Philip said helplessly. He felt powerless in the face of the oppression of the big families.
"Have you retreated?"
Ye Tian asked, frowning.
"I'm unwilling, so I don't have it for the time being! The amount of ore in that mine is too shocking, and it's all high-quality iron ore. If you don't give me half, you should at least give me some slag.”
Philip's eyes turned red. It seemed that the wealth inside was too shocking.
"What do you plan to do?"
Ye Tian asked in a low voice. This matter involved the entire Sura Clan, and with his status and ability, he couldn't force Sura to leave.
Looking at Philip's red eyes, one could tell how amazing the wealth contained in it was.
"I'm just a citizen. I know that with my capabilities, I definitely can't shake those big families. But I'm really unwilling to accept this, so I want to ask for your help. Because I trust you, my request isn't very high.”
Philip looked at Ye Tian with a burning gaze. For some reason, he believed in Ye Tian.
"You plan to leave this matter to me?”
Ye Tian asked Philip after a moment of silence.
"Yes, I believe in you!"
Philip nodded heavily.
"You should know that the Sura Family is very powerful now. He has a lot of power in the Council of Elders and has many supporters. If it was just a small mountain mine, it wouldn't be very difficult. However, if the amount of ore in this mine was shocking, it definitely wouldn't be easy to make this lion relent. I didn't have that much ability!”
Ye Tian said after some thought, leaving Philip disappointed.
"However, if you really do this for me, I can give you 15% of the shares. Don't misunderstand, I don't have the ability to take the remaining 85%!!”
Ye Tian didn't wait for Phillip's disappointment, but continued, causing Phillip's disappointed eyes to burn again.
"When you and Young Master Sura bought the mountain mine, was he an adult?”
Ye Tian asked.
"Yes, he's already an adult. I remember that he just held his coming-of-age ceremony not long ago. Otherwise, I wouldn't have dared to buy it!”
Philip quickly said.
"That's good. Now we have at least a 50% chance of winning!”
Ye Tian said confidently. Although it was dangerous to steal food from a tiger's mouth, he just needed to keep the tiger from opening its mouth.
