Seeing Mrs. Patty again, Xia Duo noticed that the look on her face was much better than last time. She wore a long black dress with a few exquisite jewelry embellishments, which looked quite calm and elegant.
Rao is that Xia Duo has seen all kinds of beauties on the earth, but he also feels the light in front of him, so he actively greets:
"Mrs. Patty, long time no see!"
"Sir Xia Duo, it's been a long time since I met you just the day before yesterday, but you didn't see me." Mrs. Patty covered her mouth with a smile and stretched out her hand. "My lord, please come in!"
Entering the living room, the two were seated separately, and the maid quickly brought tea and snacks. At this time, Chateau also noticed that the small table next to Mrs. Patty's seat was not tea or snacks, but a stack. Stack of papers.
Xia Duo didn't pay much attention. He took a sip of the familiar Elf hot drink, and then asked: "Mrs. Patty, this time I came here to—"
"Congratulations to your lord for being the pioneer of the empire!" Madame Patty's voice was very earnest, with a trace of worship in her eyes.
But Xia Duo knew that the admirer in front of him should be the title of "pioneer", not himself, and even this admiration might have been pretended.
"Mrs. Patty, you don't have to congratulate you. Let's just talk about business, it's getting late." Xia Duo reminded him after looking at the darkening sky outside.
cough--
Mrs. Patty concealed an awkward look, "My lord, I heard that you are planning to open up a territory in the Green Pearl Forest?"
"How do you know?" Xia Duo asked subconsciously with a sudden start.
But then he realized that he had overreacted. With the unclear relationship between Mrs. Patty and the lord, it was not impossible to know that he had reached an agreement with the lord.
And Mrs. Patty knew that Chateau might have misunderstood something, and she quickly explained: "The other two pioneers had left the Savile Neck with the Grand Mage Greta yesterday, and then heard that someone had obtained it in the Green Orb Forest. Pioneering power, then I thought of you, my lord."
It turned out to be like this. Although Chateau was a little surprised by Mrs. Patty's various "heards", but did not study carefully, "It is true. I have obtained an independent pioneering territory in the Green Pearl Forest. I don't know what Mrs. ?"
"My lord is joking, how dare I have any advice." Mrs. Patty's face became a little nervous, "Just, I don't know if the adults need support in opening up the territory?"
"Support?" Of course Xia Duo needs support, but can you give it for nothing? Thinking about it’s impossible, "Madame, please elaborate."
Mrs. Patty first glanced at the paperwork on the small table next to her, pursed her lips, and said firmly: "Adults need manpower and materials, such as lumberjacks, coolies, farmers, seeds, tools, etc. The Chamber of Commerce can provide it!"
After speaking, she looked at Chateau nervously. Recently, the Leaton Chamber of Commerce has undergone some bad changes, and she needs to make more plans for the future of the Chamber of Commerce.
Because this is the painstaking effort Felbers has worked for all his life.
Chateau thought carefully about Mrs. Patty's words, he had never done anything to open up territory, but he still knew some common sense.
It is nothing more than pioneering wild beasts and alien races, then cutting down trees, clearing out an open space, building a stronghold, and then farming, but the details need to be considered.
Seeing Mrs. Patty's nervous look, Xia Duo suddenly became a little happy, "I do need a lot of manpower and materials, but I don't have so many gold coins to pay!"
"No, my lord, you don't need gold coins."
"You don't need gold coins? What do you want?" Xia Duo never believed in the good thing about pie falling from the sky. If you don't need gold coins, then the other party must be more expensive than gold coins.
However, as long as he is within Xia Duo's bottom line, he is still willing to accept other people's transactions. After all, a transaction means that there is a common interest, and he has no reason to refuse.
He wanted to see what Mrs. Patty said.
"My lord, I hope to get the magic items made by the adults and the right to do business in the future territory."
"That's it?" Xia Duo asked in surprise.
He felt that this was not a deal at all, it was simply a benefit. First of all, magic items need to be made by him. If he doesn't make them, he won't have any. The so-called right to do business is also based on the successful development of the territory.
In other words, the content of Mrs. Patty's transaction is basically Chateau's credit. If you change your heart, then it is estimated that you will have to eat even the belt bones.
Xia Duo looked at the young and beautiful Mrs. Patty, feeling a little complicated. He knew that he was thinking too much, but he couldn't help but wonder if the other party liked him.
However, Xia Duo realized that after discussing it in detail, it turned out that this transaction was just to exchange gold coins for magical items, and even if it was in arrears, interest was required.
As for the right to do business, it is only incidental.
Regarding the specific price, although Mrs. Patty is not good at bargaining, she still strives for the best benefits.
By this time, Xia Duo had completely put down the mage's arrogance and bargained with Mrs. Patty like an ordinary hawker.
Opening up a territory is not something that can be done overnight, and it requires a lot of manpower and material resources, in other words, a lot of gold coins need to be invested.
Even if it is just a silver coin on a scroll, it will involve countless interests in the future.
When Xia Duo came, he didn't make any preparations. All he could understand was the finished products and prices of the scrolls he could make.
As for other more advanced scrolls, as well as magic items such as potions and wands, he didn't have any, only an approximate price, but this obviously couldn't be used to negotiate transactions.
In the end, it was difficult for the two to reach an agreement on specific magic items, and they could only agree to the market price on the delivery date.
Xia Duo uses magic items to settle at a price that is half of the market price, while Mrs. Patty needs to provide a detailed expense report ~ EbookFREE.me ~ specific to each person and each seed.
This result is acceptable to both parties, and it is a win-win cooperation.
Xia Duo overdrafted the future and got what she needed now, and Mrs. Patty became the general agent of "Xia Duo" magic items.
Before the debt was repaid, Xia Duo could not sell magic items to other chambers of commerce.
And the last step of cooperation was the contract. Xia Duo was worried that the other party would not perform it, and the other party might also be worried that he would fall behind.
"My lord, I have prepared the contract." Mrs. Patty picked up the small bell by the table and shook it gently.
For a moment, the butler walked in with a tray, bent over and handed the tray to Mrs. Patty. On the tray was a piece of seemingly ordinary parchment paper.
But in Chateau's magical vision, this parchment shone with divine light, full of order and ruthless taste.
This is the sacred contract of the Lord of Radiance!
