Chapter 439: Intermediary Merchant
Never underestimate a person's determination to fight hard in a hard life, even if the other person is just a child.
Born into a poor and humble family in Montres, the boy Eller was born to a pirate father and a woman he had taken from a merchant ship, and when he was six years old, his father was killed in an ambush by the Grenada Navy, leaving him and his mother and infant sister behind.
However, upon learning of his father's death, his mother burst into laughter, and soon after, she sold all the possessions left by Eyler's father, and then abandoned the siblings and disappeared into Monteres, ignoring the death of the young Eyler.
Perhaps she never identified with this family in her heart, and the death of Eller's father was like freeing herself from the heavy shackles on her body and regaining her freedom.
Eyler's mother is gone, but his life with his sister goes on.
Fortunately, there are still well-wishers in this world, and if it were not for the relief of the neighbors, the Elle siblings would have starved to death in that dim and dirty hut in the morning.
Eyler was a very strong and independent child, and when his father was alive, he often rode around the Brillette market on his father's neck, and it was this experience that made him very familiar with every corner of Brillette Square, so that he found a business opportunity for his livelihood.
He began to wander around Brillet Square, and began to sell himself frequently in frustration, and the change in value from a copper coin to a silver coin now undoubtedly confirms his tireless efforts over the years.
In the face of Xia Lan's explanation, Eller did not stop searching for information about rental houses after separating from the other party yesterday, and finally successfully contacted an intermediary businessman who specializes in rental and sales.
So early in the morning. Eller hurried to the hotel to inform Xia Lan.
"Sir. You'd better hurry. The agent I contacted didn't seem to believe me very much, and he wouldn't give me a second chance if I hadn't met him at the allotted time. ”
As soon as he left the door of the hotel, the little boy Eyler looked up at the sky and said to Xia Lan with a little anxiety.
Xia Lan nodded indifferently, his steps were still unhurried, he didn't care about the reaction of the intermediary businessman, the other party didn't believe a child's words It was easy to understand, and the other party was stern on the surface. However, once the owner is sure that the transaction is true, he will immediately change his attitude, because no merchant will have trouble with money.
Moreover, there is more than just one intermediary in the huge Montreus, and it takes a lot of time to find a house.
In the early morning, the streets are few pedestrians, and most of the shops are not open, and as time passes, the streets and alleys that pass through gradually take on a scene of prosperity and noise.
A teahouse in the Changzhi district of Monterre.
It took nearly an hour for Charan and Eller to arrive late at the place where they had agreed to meet with the broker.
DeWitt, a broker-dealer who was sitting under a table and chair near the window of the teahouse, sipping hot tea, looked like he was in his thirties, with curly blond hair. There was a faint coldness and meanness under the tall hooked nose, and in fact the first thing he said when he saw Eller was true.
"You're late. It seems that there is no need for us to talk about it any further. ”
"Mr. DeWitt, please listen to my explanation......" This made Eller's eyes turn red with anxiety.
Xia Lan walked behind Eller, reached out and patted his head gently, then looked at the intermediary merchant in front of him with a smile and said, "Are you the intermediary merchant who specializes in renting and selling houses?" ”
"No, to be precise, I'm a qiē intermediary businessman who can make money." DeWitt's gaze fell on Xia Lan, a man with an ordinary face.
Xia Lan looked at this extraordinary-looking man carefully, and said with a smile: "A job to make money? ”
"You don't believe it?" DeWitt twitched his eyebrows.
"As far as I know, it's not easy to be an intermediary businessman." Xia Lan took the opportunity to sit across from him.
"It's just a mouthful of food." DeWitt said lightly.
"Since it's all mixed with a mouthful of food, why do you have to embarrass this kid anymore?" Xia Lan glanced at Eller beside him and said, "You should know my intentions, if the matter is resolved to my satisfaction, I believe that we will have more opportunities to cooperate in the future." ”
DeWitt took a slow sip of tea, his eyes lingered on the helpless Eller for a moment, and said, "You need to rent a big house in a secluded environment, right?" How long do you need to rent? ”
"Three months, or more." Charland Road.
"Renting for a short period of time is too short, and not many people will give up long-term benefits because of short-term benefits." DeWitt said.
"I know, so I'll pay double the price for renting." Charland Road.
"Double? Sir, you're a great deal. DeWitt's indifferent face showed a rare smile.
"If you help me solve the rental problem, the agent fee is also double." Charland Road.
"I'll take the deal." Dewitt put down the cup in his hand and said with a straight expression: "I happen to know one or two houses that meet your requirements, can you take a look with me now?" ”
"Of course." Xia Lan nodded.
"Please come down at will."
DeWitt stood up, stretched out his hand to make an inviting gesture, and then walked slowly out of the teahouse.
Outside the teahouse, an ordinary-looking carriage stopped at the door at some point, Divitra opened the carriage door, smiled at Xia Lan and Eller who walked out of the teahouse, and signaled to get on the car, and after a while, the carriage gradually drove slowly towards a strange and remote street.
"This gentleman, in Lower Dewitt, has not yet asked for your name."
Sitting in the steady carriage, DeWitt suddenly asked.
"Lowell." Xia Lan casually reported a pseudonym.
"It doesn't sound like your accent is from the West Coast, it's more like someone from the mainland." DeWitt smiled and said meaningfully.
"Mr. DeWitt, do you still need to divide your business into continental countries?" Xia Lan said lightly.
"Please forgive my faux pas, it's just some of my personal professional habits." DeWitt said calmly.
"Accustomed to getting to know each guest?" Xia Lan's words were sharp.
"There's nothing wrong with being careful." DeWitt shrugged his shoulders.
"Mr. DeWitt, it looks like you've set your sights on our future deals." Charland Road.
"Because I'm never going to let go of any potential premium guests, especially those who are qualified to wear virtual rings." DeWitt chuckled lightly, and his eyes deliberately stared at the ring on Xia Lan's finger with the beautiful and delicate inscription lines-
