Jack Kennelly stopped in front of the magic caravan, turned his head and squinted at Baron Harvey Gophero and said: "But the supply of goods in your leather store is not sufficient. I want to know what should have been placed on the counter.
When will the above batches of goods be replenished?”
His skin is a little too fair, and when his eyes are slightly narrowed, the pupils seem to stand up. It is said that this is because the southerners have lizard blood mixed in their bodies.
Harvey Gofilo obviously knew little about his family's leather business. He turned around and glanced at the store manager behind him.
The manager hurriedly stepped forward and whispered in Baron Harvey Gophero's ear: "The Gophero family has trading houses in all planes that specialize in purchasing leather, but plane accidents have occurred frequently recently.
As a result, the delivery date of leather has been delayed again and again..."
The two of them boarded the magic caravan, which was still parked on the side of the road, not in a hurry to leave.
The managers and employees of the Gophero Family Leather Shop were waiting beside the carriage.
Jack Kennelly said to Harvey in a relaxed tone: "As for the leather trade, I can pay some deposits in advance, or we can use the payment for the first batch of wheat flour to offset it. The wheat shipped from the family is about to arrive in Bena.
City, this time we will send out five batches of wheat flour, which should total a total of 200,000 tons. This food can support an army of 500,000 people for a whole year. The premise is that I need to see the Gophero family and Bei
The Nazi Army Grain Supply Agreement, otherwise such a large amount of wheat would not be sold in time without a huge sales network!"
Jack leaned against the soft leather sofa in the carriage, picked up a glass of ice wine, and said: "Harvey, since we are friends, I have to remind you of something. Once such a large amount of food cannot be sold, it will be lost in the middle of next summer."
When mold sprouts and worms sprout, I am not looking down on the Gophero family, but I need you to prove your sales ability to me."
Harvey, who was sitting across from him, gritted his teeth and said patiently: "Since the family wants to obtain the Kennelly family's wheat flour agency rights in Bena Province, it means that we have the ability to sell this batch of wheat flour.
There are twenty windmills on the farm, which can peel and grind wheat. We can also apply to the Bena Provincial House of Representatives to reduce trade taxes and inter-provincial local agricultural protection taxes, so that we can continue to maintain low selling prices. Grain trade is a
Only when things are profitable, this is also the profit point that our grain business can see!"
He waved his hand and said confidently: "I will go to the tax department to submit the application tomorrow. This thing will not be difficult to do."
Jack took a sip of wine, pushed open the car window, looked at the leather trading shop outside the car window, and said: "Otherwise, we should start the leather trade first. It is not difficult to obtain the agency rights of the Kennelly family wheat flour. The letter of intent can be sent at any time."
It can be signed, but I'm worried that you won't be able to eat such a big piece of cake! On the contrary, the leather trade is more profitable. The Kennelly family's purchasing power for leather comes from two thousand cavalry, two thousand long archers and six thousand heavy men.
Armored infantrymen come from hundreds of thousands of native slaves from the plane. Whether it is military leather protective gear or agricultural tools, they need a lot of leather."
Harvey frowned, glanced at the deserted leather shop outside the window, and sighed: "The family's leather business is currently affected by factors such as the plane war. It will take a few months at the fastest to recover. I don't want to be there.
Just wait here..."
Jack Kennelly said unhurriedly: "Unless... you can determine the annual wheat flour trading volume... Baron Harvey! I think you might be able to discuss this matter with Count Gophero first."
"As for the wheat flour trade, I can decide. I am currently in charge of the family business affairs. Wheat flour does have a great market prospect in Bena Province..." Harvey explained to Jack Kennelly seriously.
Jack Kennelly interrupted him: "Harvey, you may not realize how much two hundred thousand tons of wheat are. That wheat may make all the warehouses at the Bena Airport Terminal burst!"
While the two were chatting, a steward ran over on horseback from across the street, came to the carriage, hurriedly boarded the carriage, saluted the two nobles, and whispered into Jack Kennelly's ear: "
Master, there has been an order for wheat from Count Quentin. As long as we deliver the wheat to Epsom City, we will be paid four silver coins per ton of wheat."
Jack Kennelly frowned and said angrily: "Is it possible that this guy doesn't know how high the cost of freight is now? I will write him a letter to explain this matter. Unless he can pay for our freight,
Otherwise I would not transport a grain of wheat to Epsom City."
He hesitated slightly, lowered his voice, and said: "Write a letter home immediately... No, you should go back in person and tell your father that the second batch of wheat shipped here will stop first, and then
Find five airships to free up the schedule for next month, and I will fly to Epsom City tomorrow to talk to Quentin Bousman in person."
The butler agreed: "Okay, Master!" and then quickly left the carriage.
Although the sound of the conversation between the two was very low, it still reached Harvey's ears.
The carriage suddenly became quiet, and after a while, Jack Kennelly said to Harvey: "Baron Harvey, I'm afraid that the work of representing wheat flour will be put on hold for the time being. I have to rush back to the family to handle some matters."
"Jack, are you leaving Bena City?" Harvey was a little panicked. He has been actively preparing for a cooperation project with the Kennelly family recently, but now it seems that Jack Kennelly has a better partner -
—Quentin Bousman.
The first heir to the Bussman family was far beyond what he, the little baron, could compare to. Harvey looked at Jack Kennelly with a frustrated look on his face.
Jack Kennelly bowed slightly and said apologetically: "Sorry, Harvey, I have to consider the interests of the Kennelly family in this matter."
After saying that, Jack Kennelly stepped out of the carriage and quickly boarded a magic caravan behind him with a few followers. The magic caravan quickly drove away from Rossi's Leather Shop.
Harvey sat in the carriage and thought for a while, then ordered the coachman: "Go back to the manor..."
The magic caravan quickly drove out of the street and disappeared at the intersection in front.
…
Across the street, Surdak, who was sitting in the magic caravan, did not expect to see such a wonderful scene, like a scene from a drama.
He did not hear the low-pitched conversation between Jack Kennelly and the butler, but he had seen many such scenes in his previous life, and he felt that there was a big problem with this Baron Jack Kennelly.
Although it was just because of a certain similar plot that he had some bad associations, and there was no concrete evidence yet, he saw that the butler and Jack Kennelly's eyes seemed to be fixed all the time while they were talking.
in communication.
After implanting a dragon bone in his body, although Surdak's spiritual consciousness was completely destroyed, the two souls were unexpectedly completely merged into one. He suddenly had many memories of previous lives, and his spiritual consciousness was
He is recovering quickly and his perception is much better than before.
Because his body has incorporated some dragon blood, his physique has been significantly improved. He can even recite those runic words casually, giving the elemental power of certain runic words blessings. He feels that the power contained in these runic words is very similar to some
The power of the Knight's Seal described in books.
He felt that he should find time to visit some other knights who were in their peak period, but he didn't have many friends in this area at the moment.
Suldak knocked on the window, and the coachman turned around from the front and asked him: "My Lord Baron, what are your orders?"
"Go to the Shire Tavern!" Surdak said.
"Okay, Lord Baron!" the coachman agreed.
After saying that, he raised his whip and drove the carriage into the traffic on the street...
Arriving at the Shire Hotel and meeting Sophia, Suldak asked Sophia to investigate the young Baron Jack Kennelly, but Sophia said that she wanted to confirm the identity of a southern lord. The Thieves Guild
This will take at least a month, and for this kind of identity investigation task, no matter whether useful information is found or not, a reward will still be paid.
Suldak immediately gave Sophia fifteen more gold coins, saying that no matter what the outcome was, he wanted the Thieves Guild to conduct a follow-up investigation.
In addition to Jack Kennelly, he also hopes that the Thieves Guild will send someone to investigate the butler's whereabouts.
…
Suldak returned to the hotel from the tavern, got off the carriage and walked into the hotel lobby. He happened to see Harvey getting out of the carriage of the magic caravan and hurriedly walked into the hotel.
Surdak simply found an unoccupied seat in the rest area of the hotel lobby and sat down, asked the waiter for a cup of tea and a plate of desserts, and waited patiently to watch the show.
To this end, he even took a biography of a knight from the nearby bookshelf, placed it in front of his desk and opened a few pages at random.
He was a little absent-minded, his eyes always looking towards the stairs of the hotel unconsciously.
"You still like watching this?"
A strange voice came from in front of him.
Suldak looked up and realized that it was Mrs. Dorothy standing opposite. He didn't expect the other party to find her so quickly. He originally thought it would take longer. It would be better if he waited until he returned to Helensa City.
Already.
But now Mrs. Dorothy caught him off guard, and it was obvious that the other party already knew.
He stood up quickly, saw Mrs. Dorothy looking at him with a half-smile, and followed Mrs. Dorothy's gaze to the table.
The page of the knight's biography on the coffee table happened to be an illustration, and the content on it was a little 'exciting'. It seemed to describe the love story of the knight and a noble lady.
Surdak closed the book with some embarrassment. He didn't even have time to take a look at it just now.
Mrs. Dorothy raised her thin lips and asked Suldak: "Are you waiting for someone?"
"No!" Suldak had not yet recovered from his embarrassment.
"Do you mind if I sit here for a while?"
"Of course, please take a seat!"
Mrs. Dorothy sat magnanimously across from Suldak, and even took the biography of the Ranger from the coffee table, turning over a few pages with great interest.
It was very warm in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel. Mrs. Dorothy untied the white fox fur shawl, revealing the exquisite low-cut dress underneath. The white skin on her chest was a little dazzling. A maid standing behind her quickly took off the white fox shawl.
He took the fur shawl.
"Should I say thank you?" Mrs. Dorothy asked Suldak with a smile.
"Um, where did you start talking about this?" Suldak could only pretend to be confused. He glanced around. Fortunately, there was no one in this corner of the hall for the time being.
"I'm talking about the incident at the Dandelion Hotel..." Mrs. Dorothy only said this and did not continue.
Seeing Mrs. Dorothy asking this, Suldak said calmly: "Now that you know everything, what else do you want to know from me?"
Mrs. Dorothy tilted her head and said calmly: "I have a lot of doubts, so I just want to talk to you in person."
Suldak spread his hands helplessly and said to Mrs. Dorothy sincerely: "If I say that all this is just a coincidence, would you believe it?"
"What do you think?"
Suldak smiled bitterly and said: "But this is what I want to explain to you. I happened to be staying in a room on the third floor of that hotel at the time, and I saw those people on the terrace... I'm sorry! I couldn't tell you in advance at that time
You issue a warning."
Mrs. Dorothy said indifferently: "Everything is over, and you don't need to apologize. After all, you saved me!"
She paused, stood up from the sofa, and then said: "...So, if there is anything that I can do, please feel free to come to the Newman family's castle to find me!"
"Okay, ma'am!"
Suldak quickly stood up and saluted, watching Mrs. Dorothy leave the hotel with two maids and four attendants.
…
At the top of the stairs in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, several servants came down from the second floor carrying large and small luggage. The one walking at the back was Jack Kennelly.
He was wearing a thick leather coat, a furry hat on his head, and a pair of thick leather boots on his feet. He was dressed for a long journey. He said to Harvey, who looked a little depressed next to him: "Harvey,
Sorry, I have to leave here, I want to go over there to negotiate this... vital business for the Kennelly family!"
Harvey Gophero raised his head, grabbed Jack Kennelly's shoulders, and begged: "Jack, you should see the sincerity of our Gophero family, we want to make these wheat sounds... I know your
Worrying, no matter whether our Gofilo family can sell the wheat, we will pay the full payment for the wheat! And I can also pay a deposit in advance!"
Jack stopped in front of the bar, stretched out his hand to stop the attendant from checking out of the room, and asked Harvey seriously: "Harvey, do you really want to conduct this trade?"
"Yes, I want to do this and prove my ability to my father." Harvey said very seriously.
"As long as you can guarantee that you will not harm the interests of the Kennelly family, I am willing to become a closer business partner with you!" Jack Kennelly smiled and stretched out his hand, holding Harvey's hand tightly.
.
Harvey also said with excitement: "You don't have to worry about the sincerity of the Gophero family at all, I will prepare the deposit in time!"
