Chapter 204: The Shocked Baylor Family
"Oh my God, is that really the adult?!"
Regardless of whether it was the big man in their impression, the Gunter and the others did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly got up to greet them. The two clan elders who were suspicious a second ago saw Boggs, and they changed their faces to be respectful to the superiors, and followed the head of the family to make a big salute to the two opposite.
"On behalf of the Baylor family, I would like to welcome you to the Gullor family..."
Without waiting for them to speculate, at this time, Raymond introduced Boggs and said: "This is Mr. Boggs Knox, the chairman of the Potions Guild and the four-star peak potions master!" ”
It's really that adult!
Hearing the introduction, the Gaunts felt that they were really going crazy. The Mr. Boggs in front of him is the oldest potions family in the Black Sea, and he is also a super man with the title of duke.
Hasn't the Potions Guild always cooperated with the Whale Chamber of Commerce? How would he come to his little Thunderbird Chamber of Commerce?
Don't... He's the master of that little brother of Nicholas?
Obviously, no.
"This..."
Because Raymond then introduced another bearded man and said, "This... It's my mentor, Mr. Boggs's fellow disciple, a five-star potions master, Mr. Aldrich! ”
"Five-star Potions Master?!"
The Gaunt and the others thought that they had heard it wrong, the five-star potions master was the top potions master in the Black Sea, and he was comparable to a prince in the Tianlan Kingdom.
Oh my God, they actually waited for a big man with such a noble status to come to visit!
Although they had the impression that only the two presidents of the Potions Master Guild in the entire Black Sea were five-star Potions Masters, there was no such thing as "Aldrich". But the sage Mr. Boggs is here, so this one must not be fake. What's more, the two masters are still brothers in the same school!
At this moment, Gaunt felt that his breathing was a little difficult because of the shock, and he glared fiercely at Matthew beside him, which meant obviously: Such an important big man is coming, why didn't you say it earlier?!
Matthew was also shocked, and responded with an extremely aggrieved look. If he knew that the Nicholas brothers' teacher would be a five-star potions master, how would he dare to sit here and let people visit? I knew that it was these two who came, and their whole family was waiting at the gate early... The existence of such a venerable top-level potion master, it was a supreme honor to be able to come to a small chamber of commerce like them.
Gaunt hurriedly stepped up, so respectful that he almost didn't put his face on the ground, "Oh, forgive the despicable faux pas, and let two such honorable adults come to the door in person..."
"Neither Boggs nor I like that polite thing."
Aldrich ignored those polite words, waved his hand, and said, "My disciple said that your Thunderbird Chamber of Commerce is good, so let's take a look." ”
The words were interrupted, but instead of minding at all, Gaunt had a flattered and happy expression, and bowed down again and again to guide, "Yes, yes, you two please sit down." ”
Raymond can be casual with the two old men, but the Gunter and the others don't dare, these two loud voices in front of them are genuine high-ranking nobles, where do they dare to be lazy, and hurriedly respectfully invited the two to sit on the main seat.
Boggs: "Don't be so inhibited, all of you. ”
"No, no, no... Two adults, let's just stand. ”
Gaunt, Matthew, and the two Whitebeard elders stood respectfully aside, not daring to sit down in the slightest.
“...”
Hearing this, Boggs raised his eyebrows and did not speak again.
The status of the high-ranking nobles is already very high, not to mention that he is still a top-level potions master with an incomparably respected status. If it weren't for Raymond saying that the head of the Chamber of Commerce was an acquaintance of his, the two old men would not have bothered to come here at all.
Even, this kind of professional businessman is not qualified to talk face-to-face with a high-level potions master like them on weekdays.
......
Before, several members of the Baylor family were still considering weighing the pros and cons, but now seeing that these two great gods deigned to descend, they were only apprehensive in their hearts.
To put it mildly, a small temple like theirs is not qualified to worship such a great god at all.
Aldrich was not verbose, and directly asked a few questions: "My disciple Quan suggested that we join your Chamber of Commerce, and he said that you are very good..."
When Gaunt heard this, his heart was ecstatic!
Since these two people were willing to deign to come and inspect their Thunderbird, they must have the intention of really joining. He didn't expect that his son went on an adventure to the Nigel Volcano and brought back such a mysterious friend, who actually had so much energy. He was able to convince two of the Black Sea's top Potions Masters to consider joining their Thunderbird.
Whether it succeeds or not, this kindness has already broken the sky!
Gaunt swallowed his mouth and hurriedly said, "The two adults deigned to come, and the contemptible people were terrified, and once again on behalf of the Thunderbird Chamber of Commerce, I would like to extend a warm welcome to the two adults..."
Aldrich was not verbose, waved his hand to interrupt, and said directly: "I have a few questions, you answer them truthfully, and then we will consider joining the Chamber of Commerce." ”
Gaunt's head was covered with fine sweat, and he was extremely restrained, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "My lord, please speak." ”
Aldrich asked directly: "What can we get by joining the Chamber of Commerce?" ”
Straight to the point, without beating around the bush at all.
Hearing this,
Several members of the Baylor family knew that things had reached the point of critical negotiations.
Before they met anyone, they still had a little confidence that the huge Thunderbird would definitely be able to come up with conditions that would make even the four-star potions master tempted. But now there is not only a four-star potions master with a special identity in front of him, but also a five-star existence!
They were worried at the moment, and there was nothing else. No matter how good his conditions are, he can't surpass the Giant Whale Chamber of Commerce... So how do you impress them?
Gaunt was not ambiguous, and said directly: "If you two deign to join the Chamber of Commerce, not to mention anything else, my Baylor family and the entire Thunderbird Chamber of Commerce will do their best to supply it!" Whatever you need, we'll do our best to provide it..."
Hearing this, Aldrich was still expressionless, and seemed unmoved, and asked again: "That... At what price do you plan to sell potions at what price do you plan to sell them when you have the right to produce and sell them? ”
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Gaunt's eyes rolled, and he immediately realized in his heart that there was something in this.
Price?
Isn't the current market price of potions a big deal because of the monopoly of the whale? No matter who you are, as long as you have the goods in your hand, you will definitely make a lot of money!
The conditions of his full support just now did not impress this Aldrich master, and it was obvious that he did not value money. Gaunt's instincts as a businessman made him realize that this answer might have a stake in the final outcome of the negotiations.
Come to think of it, this old man is definitely not here to sell higher... So is it lower?
His reaction was also extremely fast, and he said directly: "The price is all up to the two masters!" ”
After a pause, he knew that what the other party wanted to hear was not to say an ambiguous answer, and continued: "However, the contemptible people think that the potion is for the benefit of the entire human race, so naturally it should not be too much higher than its actual value. Although the Contemptible Thunderbird Chamber of Commerce has a small business, it is also ashamed of the giant whale's monopoly on the potions master market..."
This is said at a very high level, not only giving the master enough face, but also belittling the giant whale and elevating himself. No matter how you look at it, this is a very good statement.
"Alright, that's it."
But he never expected that before he could finish his sentence, Aldrich interrupted him, got up and beckoned Boggs to leave.
What's going on?
Gaunt was like a child who had done something wrong, and his face turned pale with fright.
Before leaving, Aldrich said to Raymond, "Let's go back to refining potions first, it's not easy to spare such a little time." Remember to copy a copy of the visualization map and send it to your uncle later. ”
Raymond was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Yes, teacher!" ”
Several members of the Baylor family were confused when they heard this, but Aldrich and the others were leaving, and they didn't dare to stop them, so they hurriedly sent them out.
Finished...
I must have said something wrong...
What a great opportunity...
Gaunt stumbled and barely stood his feet. He thought he had said something wrong, and his whole body was wet in cold sweat as if he had just been wrung out of the water. He was a little annoyed, if he really missed such a great opportunity, he would be a sinner of the Le family!
Ay...
The other two Baylor elders also had a dead face, seeing that the opportunity for their Thunderbird to rise slipped away under their hands, how could they not regret it?
That was a five-star potions master and the famous Potions Guild president, Lord Boggs!
On weekdays, the big people they are not qualified to see at all take the initiative to visit, but unfortunately they haven't caught it yet...
They are all sinners of the House of Baylor!
Matthew looked at Raymond with a calm expression, and a glimmer of essence flashed in his small eyes.
There seems to be a play?
With a hint of anticipation, he asked, "That... Brother Nicholas, your teacher they agreed... Still didn't say yes? ”
As soon as these words were asked, the ears of Gaunt and the two Baylor elders were pricked up. In fact, they wanted to ask just now, but after all, they were elders, and they were too eager and a little rude.
"Ahem..."
Raymond looked at a few people as nervous as if they were listening to the verdict, and he didn't beat around the bush, and said, "My teacher... Promised to join the Thunderbirds. ”
"Huh?"
Matthew widened his eyes when he heard this, "Really? ”
"Hmm."
Raymond smiled and said, "However, you need to prepare enough labs and potions materials... Because there will be many people in Mr. Boggs' family who will follow him to join the Thunderbird, and a lot of potion materials will be needed at that time... You'll have to find a way to prepare a stable source of supply. ”
In fact, Raymond didn't expect that Boggs would agree to join the Thunderbird Chamber of Commerce so soon.
When he met Aldridge today, he learned that Boggs was "lured" by his teacher.
The most important reason why Aldrich was able to successfully advance to a five-star potions master was the complete [Abyss Evil Eye Meditation Map] that Raymond had given him, which was a first-class meditation map in the Endless Sea, and it was also a treasure that all magicians and potions masters dreamed of!
Of course, the truth is... Boggs wasn't greedy for meditation charts, because Aldrich never hid this top-level secret method from him.
In fact, after he heard Raymond express the view that Tianlan would be destroyed, he had already intended to move. After all, a master and uncle covet the things of his nephew, and he is a little reluctant to say it, Aldrich said that it is "temptation", which is also a step down for everyone.
That's why two Potions Masters are walking together today.
"Really? The two masters agreed to join us Thunderbird? ”
The three Gaunts on the side felt like pie from the sky, and the people who smashed them were a little dizzy.
Surprise, panic, caution, gratitude... Mixed emotions crumpled up in Gaunt's face. Since he took over as head of the Baylor family twenty years ago, he had never been so helpless as he was today.
Gaunt and the two clan elders behind him bowed to Raymond and thanked him sincerely, "Little Brother Nicholas, thank you so much, you are the benefactor of our Baylor family, and the eternal friend of our family!" ”
The opportunity to pay attention to the take-off of the Thunderbird Chamber of Commerce in front of them was brought to them by the young man in front of them!
"You're so polite."
Raymond smiled and waved his hand.
At this time, Gaunt seemed to think of something, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, little brother Nicholas, I think I'm going to leave first..."
Raymond smiled and nodded, "Mr. Gaunt, you guys go and get busy, leave me alone." ”
Gaunt then hurriedly said to his son, "Matthew, you greet little brother Nicholas!" Daddy, I'm going to prepare the best lab for the two adults right now..."
Before the words fell, he and the two clan elders left the secret room quickly.
"Oh."
Seeing his father's anxious and flustered appearance, Matthew shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile at Raymond.
Raymond smiled discouragedly.
In fact, he did this as a reciprocation, in addition to wanting to protect his teacher, he also wanted to return Ilya's favor, and that girl helped him too much.
......
And at this moment.
In a pink and fragrant boudoir at Baylor Manor, two girls are trying on their newly bought dresses.
I haven't seen them for a few days, and they're already very familiar.
Ilya looked at the graceful figure in front of her, did not hide her envy at all, and pouted: "Sister Judy, you are really beautiful, and your figure is so good..."
As she spoke, she glanced down at her shriveled little breasts, and finally understood why the guy's disgusted eyes were so much in the ruins.
"Is it pretty?"
Judy looked at herself in the mirror, and her mood did not fluctuate.
She hadn't looked in the mirror since she was disfigured.
It turns out that my face looks like this...
She rubbed the new smooth and tender flesh on her face, as if she saw the once innocent little girl two years ago.
She felt that she should smile when she was praised for her beauty, and the corners of her mouth lifted, and she was not very accustomed to calming down.
She hadn't smiled since the moment she had slit her cheek, she had forgotten what it was like to smile.
Judy used to be the eldest lady of a high-ranking aristocratic family, and the elegance in her body is still there. After two years of wind and frost, she has added a bit of indifference of a cold swordsman in her eyes, which makes people look more seductive and attractive as an iceberg beauty. She changed out of the slave's fighting leather armor and put on the princess dress she had been absent from for a long time, which made her very unaccustomed.
"This dress... I don't think it's good for fighting..."
After changing a few clothes, Judy still picked out a corset to wrap her graceful figure, and then hung the long sword around her waist, dressed as a swordsman.
Ilya was like a little fan girl, blinking her big watery eyes and envious, "Oh, sister, you really look super good in whatever you wear..."
That night at the Gunfire Rose Tavern, she watched Raymond hugging Judy, and thought that the two were confidantes before, but she didn't expect it to be.
"Sister Judy..."
Elijah was curious: "Is that Miss Irene you said really beautiful?" ”
Judy nodded, "Hmm." At least I'm not good-looking in front of her. ”
Ilya blinked: "That... Are they together? ”
"No, I don't."
Judy raised her eyebrows slightly, "As far as I know, Raymond is a very emotionally dull guy." ”
"Oh."
Ilya hesitated for a moment, then asked curiously, "So... Does my sister like him too? ”
"I don't know..."
Judy's tone was as calm as water, "Perhaps, I once liked it." ”
Not happy, not sad, not complaining, not stupid.
At this moment, the sparkle in her crystal eyes seemed to swell through a trace of emotion that she had never figured out herself.
Even if you like it, what can you do?
