The Martial Unity

Chapter 794 Heavy Demands

?

In Guildmaster Bradt's eyes, one of the biggest issues that the Voider, whoever that was, had was being able to actually sell and distribute the esoteric resources that they had harvested from the dungeon. This was practically impossible when one considered the sheer number of obstacles that came with trying to do while still hiding their identity as the person who was clearing the floors of the dungeon and illegally embezzling them from the dungeon.

Forming a company in the Shionel Dungeon required registration of identity, among many other things. Although the restrictions and difficulty of forming a company whose goods or services were specifically related to the Shionel Dungeon had been exclusively laxed by Guildmaster Bradt Patrick himself, for the sake of increasing the number of companies and businesses formed around the Shionel Dungeon.

Because there was an enormous amount of potential for business surrounding anything related to the Shionel Dungeon in the Shionel Confederation, a huge number of people wanted to start a business venture surrounding it in the Shionel Confederation. The lowered restrictions and difficulty made it far more appealing and inviting for foreigners to migrate to the Shionel Confederation and start up a business.

This change in policy allowed for a huge boom in any and all sectors that could even remotely be tied to the Shionel Dungeon, including things as distantly related as blacksmiths forging tools and weapons that were particularly useful in the Shionel Dungeon. However, despite this, registration of identity was required by law.

This policy would definitely be very problematic for the Voider, who was clearly very determined to keep their identity secret. Guildmaster Bradt still hadn't figured out how exactly the Voider intended to overcome that problem, but relying on the Bradt Distribution Services to handle the heavy lifting was definitely a clever idea, it would minimize involvement and prevent too much exposure.

The only way they could bypass this was if they was specifically deployed by conscription from a nation and were decreed to supply all of the harvests back to the nation, thus the limitations of the market were not all that restricting to the Voider in that case.

However, at this point, Guildmaster Bradt Patrick was around ninety-percent certain that the Voider was acting alone, or at best with a few limited associates. The measures and precautions taken by this individual were too cautious for a person with strong backing and protection. Nobody would dare attack a Martial Squire from a power Sage-level nation with plenty of protection even within the nation.

Assassinating such a well-protected superstar with Martial Squires would be damn near impossible and very costly, and deploying a Martial Senior is an extremely high-profile measure that would instantly expose the perpetrator behind such an assassination. Martial Seniors were far too high-profile. This applied to even the covert ones.

The identities would be revealed very quickly once the Senior-level techniques were used to identify the Martial Senior, and if the nation that the Voider belonged to was a bigshot like the Britannian Empire, Kandrian Empire, Sekigahara Confederate, or the Republic of Gorteau then they would interpret it as a declaration of war, and the perpetrating entity would have no choice but to brace themselves for their wrath.

Thus he was sure that the Voider was not from these nations, or at the very least, was not being conscripted and deployed by them, or anything other nation worth its weight.

[Specifically, I'm willing to concede half of all the profits to the Bradt Distribution Services for serving as a liaison between myself and the consumer market.]

That was quite the concession, this further reinforced the fact that the Voider did not have any third-party backing or patroning them, for that entity would not tolerate the concession of half of the profits earned by them. He could see why this wasn't enough.

[I do have one last demand. I would like to request you pass a bill that allows for anonymous registration and creation of a supplier company surrounding my esoteric resource harvests of the Shionel Dungeon.]

Guildmaster Bradt Patrick tilted his head as he frowned deeply, narrowing his eyes. Perhaps he misjudged the sender, maybe he was in over his head. Demanding the head of government to pass such a bill as a condition for cooperation that they themselves were proposing to him?

"Fuuu… And here I was getting a little interested and even excited to collaborate with someone who seemed shrewd and sharp. What a joke," He shook his head with disappointment.

The earlier bare basic terms and conditions that had been established were much more understandable and agreeable.

The sender claiming to be the Voider wanted anonymity as far as tax payments went, and cooperation with the distribution of their esoteric supplies to be handled by his distribution company.

In exchange, he would break Chairman Deacon's dominance over the supplier market of the esoteric resources supplied from the Shionel Dungeon with his demonstrably high ability to plunder and clear dungeons, while also conceding half the profits made from this venture to the Bradt Patrick.

This was a reasonable exchange of trades, however, the last condition was an absurd demand that far outweighed what he was giving Guildmaster Patrick in exchange. The leader of the Shionel Merchant Guild was not someone who allowed himself to be exploited and played for a fiddle.

"Hmph, to think he would demand such a thing given what he is offering," He snorted, a little irritated. He wanted to toss the letter into the bin, and immediately strengthen the investigation into the break-in, but maintained his composure. He ought to at least finish reading the letter.

In the following paragraph, the writer shamelessly described the condition for the bill that he had requested be passed, before finally moving on.

[Ah, I have yet to mention the final thing that I am offering. What I am offering is a detailed, fully scaled, accurate and precise three-dimensional map of the interior layout and structure of the Shionel Dungeon, featuring accurate information and depiction of all the floors and tunnels across the entire dungeon.]
