Chapter 56: Finalizing the Deal
"Your Excellency, this is the head of our Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce, Miss Mary, Miss, this is Your Excellency Ryan, the leader of the Double Star Mercenary Regiment." However, to Ryan's surprise, the head of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce in the Bright Empire was actually a woman in her 20s, if it weren't for the introduction of this steward of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce, it would be difficult for Ryan to imagine that this woman would have such a huge amount of resources at her disposal.
"Fortune steward, I'm just temporarily in charge." Miss Mary smiled and greeted Ryan, and then said correctively.
"Oh?" Ryan is very curious now, can't this woman be the master.
"Lord Ryan, here's how it happened." The Rifle steward saw the puzzled look on Ryan's face, so he waited for Ryan to sit down and brewed good coffee before explaining to Ryan.
It turns out that the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce is a very large family-style Chamber of Commerce, and it is said that there is a Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce on the whole continent as long as there is a city, and the Chamber of Commerce has been passed down for countless years, and has its own way of doing things, the most important of which is to train the next generation of principals, generally this kind of training and selection will last for decades, and the best way to cultivate is to let these candidates run their own business, of course, under strict supervision, but supervision is supervision, which is a mistake by the candidate, He will be immediately removed from the status of a candidate, and he will not be able to enter the steward level for life, and there are seventeen candidates for the lineage of the family, and this Miss Mary is also one of the candidates.
"Hehe, Miss Mary's family is really open, and she can let a woman manage such a huge institution." Ryan was surprised, you must know that in the Double Star Continent, the status of a certain woman is very low, and it is rare for such a family to think like this.
Your Excellency laughed. Miss Mary smiled reluctantly, as if she had something on her mind.
"Then Miss Mary, this is our mercenary group's procurement plan for this month, if we can reach an agreement in this regard, our mercenary group intends to increase the purchase share by 20% every month, and we can sign a contract for half a year at one time." Ryan didn't care much about the secrets behind Miss Mary's appointment as the head of the Bright Empire, so he smiled and handed over a purchase list.
"50,000 catties of grain, 1,000 alder beasts, 1,000 catties of white salt, and these precious spices, Your Excellency Ryan, I see that your mercenary group is only G-level, do you have to consume so many things in a month, among which the grain is easy to say, the alder beast can also do its best, but this precious spice, please forgive me, these things are very expensive, roughly calculated, 20 copper coins a pound of grain, 50,000 catties is 100 gold coins, and the alder beast is about 12 silver coins a head, which requires 120 gold coins, 2 silver coins a pound of white salt, 20 gold coins, this is a small part, the total value of this spice is more than 2000 gold coins, this month will need to consume 2240 gold coins, your mercenary group will not be in deficit. Miss Mary asked Ryan suspiciously, 100 copper coins for a silver coin on the mainland, 100 silver coins for a gold coin, and some civilians have never seen a gold coin in their lives.
"Thank you Miss Mary for your concern, I have proven my purchasing power last time, and this is not actually the main thing, the main thing is that I still need to buy a lot of fruits and alcohol, no matter what kind of fruit, Miss Mary has as much as I want, and I pay in cash every time." Ryan added again.
"Your Excellency, you're not kidding?" Miss Mary stood up suddenly, you must know that the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce's warehouse in the Holy City covers an area of 1,500 acres, and the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce has its own transportation team to escort.
"Hehe, Miss Mary, just rest assured." Ryan replied with a smile.
"Hehe, it seems that Your Excellency has found a trade route, if I am not mistaken, Your Excellency Ryan must have found a safe way through the Great Snow Mountain, and the things Your Excellency bought from me were directly transferred to the Great Snow Mountain, I don't know if the little woman's guess is correct?" Miss Mary looked at Ryan's appearance and asked with a smile in half a voice.
"This doesn't have to worry about Miss Mary, Miss Mary just needs to say whether to do this business or not?" Ryan replied with a somewhat unhappy face.
"Do! Why don't you do it, I supply 20,000 catties of fruit you need in January, you must know that this time is not the time to produce fruits, you need to transport them from the south, but fortunately here by the sea, as for wine, 30,000 catties of fruit wine, 50,000 catties of wine are sold, what do you think? Miss Mary saw that Ryan was upset, so she sat down slowly and agreed.
When Ryan heard Miss Mary say this, his heart jumped with excitement, you must know that these 20,000 catties of fruit are sold for 2 gold coins per catty in the dark area, that is, 40,000 gold coins, and buying up to 2 silver coins a catty here will increase 100 times at once. And 30,000 catties of fruit wine on this ground a silver coin a catty, because these fruit wines are made from some fruits that are not resistant to storage in the autumn, the price is very cheap, not as good as the fruits shipped from the south in the past few days, and the ale wine is basically this price, which still has to count the cost of transportation, and the wine Ryan also intends to 2 gold coins a catty, which is a 200-fold difference, you must know that gold can be seen everywhere in the dark region, but Ryan also knows that this kind of business can only be done by himself, In fact, the price of a ninth-level powerhouse on the continent is probably more than 100,000 gold coins, but Ryan's business is a flowing water.
"Okay, it's decided, when Miss Mary has prepared the goods, she will send someone to this address to inform me, this is the deposit." Ryan made a gesture, and a tiger guard carried a bag of gold coins out of the carriage outside, which was 2,000 gold coins.
Ryan signed a contract with Miss Mary and left, because Ryan thought of a better way to build a large warehouse on the docks of Lily City, because it would be very suspicious to transport so many supplies directly to the manor, and there was nothing to do on the docks by the sea.
The wharf of Lily City is still very large, the drop between the top and bottom is a thousand meters high, no way, this sea has a tidal period of half a year every year, at that time the water level will be hundreds of meters high, the drop of this thousand meters is all composed of steps, and there is a large platform every other road, which is obviously used during the tide, but in contrast, this pier is very deserted at this time, because there is less business in winter, this is because in the Double Star Continent, in winter, the civilian class has no income, so it costs less, Some families eat one meal a day, as long as they don't starve to death.
Ryan looked around and finally found a few ideal places, and Ryan was optimistic about the places before deciding to go to the city hall tomorrow to buy the places he liked.
"My lord, there are so many poor people in your human kingdom?" One of Rui's guards looked at some civilians on the road and asked suspiciously.
"Hehe, there are poor people everywhere." Ryan replied with a smile.
Ryan took the carriage back to the manor, but as soon as he arrived at the manor, he saw a very luxurious carriage parked at the gate of the manor, Ryan couldn't help but wonder, who was coming to visit him, he didn't seem to have any acquaintances in this lily city, but when Ryan saw several guards in full armor clashing with his guards, Ryan's face became gloomy, obviously looking for trouble, not to visit him.
"What's wrong?" Ryan walked straight over and asked.
"You're the leader of the Twin Star Mercenary Regiment?" As soon as Ryan's words were settled, a young man in a hunting suit asked with a haughty face.
"I am!" Ryan doesn't like to see such a person, but he looks like a noble young master.
"My maid is missing, I want to search your manor, you must know that my maid was bought for 500 gold coins." The aristocratic young master replied with a disdainful expression, and then he was about to break inside, obviously not taking Ryan, the leader of the small G-class mercenary group, in his eyes.
"My lord, it was Miss Felix and Miss Dove who went out to familiarize themselves with the surrounding situation, and then this guy came." An orc guarding the door saw that it was Ryan, and replied more cryptically, the meaning of which was obvious.
", where did the garbage come from." Ryan got angry when he heard this, what the hell, so he glared directly at the noble young master and yelled.
"You, you scumbag, you know who this is ......, bang!" At this time, an entourage brought by this noble young master suddenly jumped out and pointed at Ryan's nose and shouted, but before he finished speaking, he was kicked away by one of Ryan's guards, you must know that Ryan's tiger man guard has reached the peak of level 8, and the combat power of orcs is higher than that of humans, this entourage flew directly dozens of meters away, made a dull sound, and then remained motionless, obviously unable to survive.
"Whoa!" With a burst of voices, more than a dozen of the noble young master's guards all drew their weapons and surrounded Ryan and the others, two of whom had reached the level of level 6 intermediate warriors, bursting out with a strong fighting spirit.
"Okay, okay, everyone give it to me, first kill these guys who despise the authority of the nobility, and give the two little beauties inside to the young master and I will arrest them back, which can be regarded as compensating the young master for my losses." At this time, the aristocratic young master finally revealed his thoughts, and as for the dead entourage, he didn't even look at it.
"Young master, you can leave it to us, you despicable guys, today is your death, if you know each other, surrender quickly." One of the noble young master's guards hurriedly shouted.
"Break the limbs of these guys with weapons, as for this young master, keep it first, wait for his family to redeem it with gold coins, and cut off a finger if he doesn't come a day." Ryan didn't even look at these guys, and commanded directly to the orc guards beside him.
"My lord, how much ransom is it to pay?" As soon as the orc guards heard that there were gold coins to take, their eyes lit up and asked, because there was such a situation in the labor contract signed between these guards and Ryan, and these orc guards had a share.
"Look at this luxurious carriage, why do you need 10,000 gold coins......." Before Ryan finished speaking, he saw two figures flashing, and the two guards were also too anxious.
"Don't forget that those guys still have gold coins on them, and those armors are worth a lot of money." Ryan could imagine that two level 8 orc warriors facing this group of guards was like a tiger facing a flock of chickens, but in the end, Ryan didn't forget to roar mischievously, because gold coins are also hard currency in the Great Wasteland.
