Even if the fort was in the way of many trading routes, masters and rchants needed lots of ti to travel there.
But here? This city was connected by these portals to lots of places. Be it far or near, any place connected to here would be considered as the backyard of this city.
William already knew how expensive the tickets of using portals were. He bought a set of tickets for his two hundred team mbers, changed the date once, and then Lara decided to put his tickets on hold until he'd make up his mind about the date of moving out.
Putting all this together would make everything possible. As his na was known at many places but here, then why would he just limit recruiting masters to just this city?
The main issue of not belonging here would be easily solved by the mbership he was looking for. Not to ntion this would serve as a grand tempting part for anyone hearing about the recruitnt news.
As for wages, he could easily compete with any force anywhere else but not here. And so, with such a solution, all his problems would be solved, only lacking one thing: Lara's answer.
eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ [Well… There is indeed sothing like that. But…] she paused, and seemingly there was a catch for such an offer.
"Just tell how much this will cost ," William knew only the extrely high price would be the thing to stop her from telling him everything.
[You have to pay five hundred billion crystals per a year] she sent such scary figure, [There isn't a monthly paynt]
"That's… Indeed quite a scary price," William sighed. He got hundreds of billions from his last deal with her at the Spar Arena. But he already spent a lot in the past days to purchase the land and build it.
[I know, that's why in our entire history, only five tis such mbership was issued]
"Hmm… Tell , if I paid for it, I can allow any number of my guild to use your portals and move towards any place? Without any limitations?"
[What? Don't tell you are willing to pay for this! You do know you don't have enough crystals to pay for such mbership, right? Don't tell you are planning to use the upcoming profit to pay for this… I'm sorry but I have no power in accepting this. You have to pay the entire fees in advance, fully and without any instalnt. If anyone can pay on several tis, then many would have already taken advantage of this offer]
William got what she was thinking about. But who said he only got wealth from the deal he made with her? He got a guild running for years, with a very successful business that flooded tons of crystals to his pockets.
He didn't spend much during the past years, only spending on his guild needs.
"I will pay the price in advance," and against what she expected, William added, "co here now and you'll get the entire paynt for it. Prepare the mbership right away, I'm going to start using it from today."
[This… Are you sure? Once done, you can't ask for a refund!]
"Refund? No way! I won't even speak with you about this at all!" William laughed, before putting away her Bullet. He turned his eyes towards the portal zone around, before issuing a loud laugh out of his excitent.
He was deeply cornered with this problem during the past few days. And it was just right to feel such excitent when he got a way out.
"There is a task you have to do for …" and as he dealt with Lara's issue, he started to spread out his new orders to his team.
When his vices heard what he wanted them to do, they couldn't believe themselves at first. The team already stayed in this city for long, long enough to know how much it'd cost anyone to repeatedly use the portals.
And now their leader just ordered them to prepare and get ready to leave, use the portals to go to any place they could reach. William decided to set the wage system based on the highest paid wages here. The last thing he'd want to see was for his newly recruited masters to leave him and join other places thanks to their better treatnt.
William reassured them, told them to be ready at the portal area in two hours. He also spoke with his vices about how they'd start luring masters to their side.
First, they'd use the slightly famous na of his guild. Then they'd use the high wage rates of his guild. And the last piece would be the privilege to use the portals any number of tis, go anywhere, as long as the masters doing this won't stay much longer than one week away from the guild.
William placed the general rules about how things were going to be in this branch. He also stressed that they should attract many secondary profession masters as well. He wanted to repeat the sa system he followed back at the first guild branch at the Scorching Lands city.
When they asked about the difference in treatnt between this branch and the one back at the Scorching Lands city, William simply said he'd raise the wages once they'd finished this adventure.
He wouldn't let such a discrepancy between the guild's branches happen. At this mont, William just felt lucky to have such deep pockets, or else such a solution wouldn't be possible.
He didn't see this as a lost investnt. In his eyes, he was going to reap lots of benefits in the later years. Not to ntion he'd gain tons of masters, enough to help him seize the Lost City later on, and even take full control over this city on the surface as well.
"You really plan to do it!" In less than twenty minutes, Lara arrived at his room.
