Chapter 757 Negotiations are suspended and the situation has changed
In the reception room on the public floor of the Tower of Time, the agency negotiations between the Tower of Time and the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce are still continuing, and Shado and Niya are still watching the entire negotiation process through "monitoring" in the study.
Both sides had their trump cards, and the arguments went back and forth. Until the evening, no final agreement was reached on the agency fee issue.
On the other hand, on the non-core issue of advance payment, the two parties did not have too much entanglement and quickly reached an agreement. Based on the previous quotation disclosed by Sethos, an additional 100 gold coins were added, reaching 600 gold coins per piece.
By the end, Xia Duo had focused most of his attention on his own consciousness, constantly looking back at past memories, while Niya was also lowering her head to read a book, seemingly not caring at all about the negotiations over there.
The negotiations stalled without any surprise. Santos proposed to talk next time, and the appraiser of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce from Severington, the high-level mage Pelokan, proposed to meet with Niya.
"Um?"
Xia Duo and Niya looked at the window next to each other. In the projection, today's negotiation had ended, and Santos and Derrick were talking in clichés, feeling quite sympathetic to each other.
After the Master Peluokan asked Aiboke to meet him, he looked in the direction of the sensing field, seemingly waiting for the reply from the person "monitoring".
Looking at the situation in the projection, Niya frowned, "Does he want to find the teacher through me? That shouldn't be the case. The Mingshui Chamber of Commerce should be able to contact the teacher directly!"
"There is no reason to guess how to know the other party's purpose. You will know it once you meet him!" Xia Duo suggested.
In fact, according to his idea, entering a mage tower to meet the master is a normal thing, but Niya's status is a bit special, which makes her more worried.
"Oh well!"
Niya responded and summoned Ai Bok to tell him that she agreed to meet Peluokan. Then she said to Sha Duo, "Why don't you come over too and see what his purpose is!"
"I won't go. Just come back and tell me what he said. News just came from Horst that a mass production plan has just been released. I'll go over there and take a look."
Two days ago, Chateau went to Horst's research laboratory to check on the progress. He was quite dissatisfied with the chaotic management there. In the end, Horst was only given three days to come up with a new mass production plan.
Unexpectedly, it only took two days? The new plan came out. If you didn't want to watch the negotiations here? After Xia Duo received the news, he had to go over and have a look.
Now that the negotiations are suspended? It's just over. As for Peluokan? Niya can handle it alone.
In the projection, Sethos and Derrick had already left, while Aibok was taking Pelokan to the new reception room and had also left.
Without much delay, Niya went to the bedroom next to the study to change into a set of clothes, picked up a scepter, and then teleported away.
Watching Niya leave? Xia Duo turned off the "monitoring" and left the study.
…
Reception room.
This room is different from the reception room just prepared for negotiations. The style is more rigorous and solemn. It is decorated with dark colors and looks very formal.
This is the first time Niya has used this reception room. Why did she choose it? In fact, it was to gain some confidence. Her attitude towards the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce is still very cautious.
After Niya arrived, Peluokan saluted first, "Mingshui Chamber of Commerce Peluokan has met Lord Savile! I would like to extend my sincere greetings to you on behalf of the president!"
President of Mingshui Chamber of Commerce?
An image of a arrogant young woman with bright golden hair flashed through Niya's mind. She had met her once at a banquet in the Seven Towers, but she had not spoken to her, let alone any friendship. How could the other party specially send someone to her?
Where are the greetings?
For a moment, Niya was full of doubts, but she couldn't ask directly. On the surface, she still nodded calmly and said, "Send my regards to Lord Jenna as well."
"yes."
Peluokan nodded in agreement, and then went straight to the topic, "Lord Savile, the president predicts that the situation in the Northland countries may change in the future, and the Chamber of Commerce decided to expand the trade route to Cormanso——"
Before Peluokan finished speaking, Niya immediately reacted. Although she was not sure what changes would happen in the future, the legendary President Jenna obviously took a fancy to the geographical advantages of Savile Territory.
Want something at the same time.
Niya, who was a little confident in her heart, continued to listen. As expected, the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce had something to ask for. They wanted to rent a piece of land in the Saville Territory to build a warehouse as a way to trade with Cormanthor.
Supporting use of Lacheng General Library.
At present, there is no sign of the end of the Drow War. Kingkiller is still hanging high in the northwest sky, and the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce has already begun to take action.
This surprised Niya, and she kept wondering whether the other party had some secret sources and knew some key information in advance.
And what can Savileland gain from it?
"In principle, I have no objection to any chamber of commerce that does not violate Savile's laws and regulations entering the Savile Territory. This of course includes the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. I personally welcome the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce to carry out commercial activities in the Savile Territory."
"In this case, I will report to the president as soon as possible. I think there will be people specifically responsible for this matter coming to the Saville Territory soon to discuss the warehouse location, leasing, and construction details. I also ask Lord Saville for your convenience.
."
"I will, and I hope to have more cooperation with Mingshui Chamber of Commerce in the future!"
…
After a series of direct or implicit conversations, Niya and Perokan basically reached an intention to cooperate. On the other hand, Shado also received a mass production plan for the [Missile Wand] from Horst Research Laboratory.
After dinner, the two met again in the study and told each other what they had learned after leaving the study.
When Xia Duo heard Niya talk about his guess about the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce's future judgment, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, and at the same time he agreed with Niya's judgment.
As the saying goes, "The cicada wakes up before the autumn wind moves". He did not believe that a large chamber of commerce like the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce would suddenly want to enter the Comanso market. There must be some definite news.
Maybe the Drow War will be over soon!
Maybe the so-called "Northland Alliance" will come sooner than he thought!
For a moment, Xia Duo was a little confused, but of course, more importantly, he was ignited with endless fighting spirit. He believed that as long as he steadily walked on the road of progress, he would definitely have a place among the legends of the Northland in the future.
"Horst has come up with the mass production plan for the [Missile Wand]. If I don't force them, I really don't know their potential. Next, the Tower of Time will start to gradually upgrade all products."
Xia Duo said expectantly.
Using the mass production plan, the production cost of various commercial-level magic items in the Tower of Time can be reduced by 20%, and the output will also increase accordingly.
In other words, Tower of Time’s income from magic items will be greatly increased in the future.
However, due to the transformation of the new system, the past consumption of Tower of Time members in acquiring knowledge will be greatly reduced, and the Tower of Time's income in this area will also be greatly reduced.
Taken together, we can only barely maintain a balance of payments.
