Kyle gulped softly.

He was stunned by Lorne’s barrage of words. At the same time, his eyes were filled with boundless imagination and longing for more. He was so close to becoming a star.

He could gain financial freedom and could do whatever he wanted without being advised by the ministers in the palace.

This kind of life was too great to miss out on!

Not only would he not get scolded, but he would even be praised. Everyone wanted to be such a king, and he, Kyle, was no exception.

If he could really become such a king, his way of living would be more comfortable than anything else. Since ancient times, there were few kings who could make it this far.

Were he to be diligent, thrifty, and simple in managing his household expenses, he would earn a good reputation, but he would not enjoy it.

Were he to be ruthless, extravagant, and spendthrift, although he may enjoy it, he would not have a good reputation.

If he could take care of both, have a good reputation, and enjoy a lot, then he would be an example that many kings would envy since ancient times.

He did not expect that a simple business of refining refined salt and crude salt would have such a great benefit!

His vision was still too narrow. He did not think of such a long-term future. Unlike Lorne, who had already thought a thousand steps ahead on his chest board.

Kyle immediately made up his mind. Such a good thing had to be done!

Who would not want to earn money? Even the king had to earn money. If he did not say yes to this deal, then he would be a fool!

However, Kyle still held Lorne’s arm, and the two of them moved closer.

“Boss, such a business that even the king would be interested in, and you’re actually willing to involve me in it?”

Lorne said with a sincere tone, “You are my brother, old friend, and the current king is not. I am not related to him, so why should I find him to cooperate with this business?

“On the other hand, we are close. Even if the king is sitting here, I will let you manage the deal, who cares about the king!”

Of course, Lorne did not mention other reasons. The main reason was that did not have enough status to even speak to the king.

In Lorne’s opinion, he could not even enter the palace with such a skill, let alone other things.

Therefore, it was unrealistic to cooperate with the king. It was much better to look towards something practical.

However, these words had a different meaning in Kyle’s ears. Although Lorne was technically talking about the same person, Charles and the King of Lolan; when comparing these two identities, he still preferred to hear Lorne saying that his old friend was much better than the king.

Kyle immediately slapped his thigh.

“Lorne, based on what you’ve said, you’ve convinced me. I’ll do it with you!

“Just tell me what to do, how many people, and how much money you want!

“As long as you can come up with something, I’ll spare everything. As long as we take care of this business, we won’t have to worry about our future anymore!”

Lorne patted Kyle’s shoulder approvingly.

“Old friend, you’ve finally gotten the hang of it. At least you’re being a reasonable person now.

“In that case, I’ll just cut straight to the chase. We’re brothers, after all. After deducting the cost, we’ll split the remaining profit 30:70. I’ll take 70%, and you’ll take the remaining 30%!

“I’ll be responsible for adding this technology to the refining process, and I can also guide the helpers you’ll hire on some technical issues.

“You can ask me any questions you have any.

“You’ll be in charge of other things. As for our distribution range, it’ll be limited to the area around Lolan City first!”

At first glance, it sounded like the split was not quite balanced. However, the closer it was analyzed, it was still relatively fair.

After all, Lorne had taken out an exclusive technology to invest in the company. It was the only exclusive method in the world, and no one else would understand it except him.

In addition, Lorne had clearly stated that the business scope was limited to the area around Lolan City, which was the core city with them as the center.

This area was not considered vast, but the economy was prosperous here. Therefore, the task left for his old friend was not particularly important.

Therefore, it could be said that it was quite fair to calculate it according to the 30:70 ratio. Of course, Kyle also understood this point, but at this moment, he was a little anxious.

A 30:70 split, was that enough?

It was not that he was greedy, but 30% seemed to be a bit too little to be able to profit. It might not be enough for him to spend generously for his people. Moreover, the scope was limited to the area around Lolan City. That would not work either in earning big bucks in a short time.

As a king, he had used his private identity to conduct business. Was it appropriate to set up a small stall with that identity too?

Kyle immediately clapped his hands.

“Boss, how about this?

“I’ve been in the medicinal business for many years. I know quite a number of important people. I can even get through some of their joint ventures to have more connections.

“If we want to do the salt business, we will definitely have to deal with all the nobles and higher-ups in the palace. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to move forward.

“I will be responsible for dealing with these nobles and higher-ups. I guarantee that they will not come looking for trouble with us. Our business of refining crude salt will be smooth sailing for sure.

“Just this alone, I’m hoping that this would be about 10% more?”

Lorne immediately looked at Kyle with a surprised gaze.

“Not bad, old friend. You really don’t show your true colors until when needed. In that case, I have underestimated you in the past.

“I was still thinking about how to deal with building on connections and growing. Since you said so, I have no problem with it.

“As long as you handle it properly, we will split it 40:60.”

Kyle was delighted, but it had not reached the standards he had expected.

“On the other hand, I think we don’t have to be limited to the surroundings of Lolan City.

“Over the years, I have traveled far and wide to meet many acquaintances. I have many friends who do business in other empires, and I am very familiar with the ways things are handled elsewhere.

“We can completely expand the scope of our business. I’ll handle all these methods. I’ll cover all the transportation, import, and production.

“Do you think this is worth another 10%?”
