Chapter 198: Business Wizard IV
It wasn't until the early hours of the next morning that Nasher and Yalvis left Shen Yan's shop.
Standing in the early morning street at the door, Nasher touched his shriveled pocket and suddenly smiled, "If I hadn't clearly remembered what happened last night, I would have thought I had been robbed." ”
Jarvis shook his head, isn't that what you see and want to buy?
However, the red wine here is really top-notch, and it definitely comes from an outer plane famous for its wine, so even Yalvis emptied his pocket and bought several bottles to take home to treasure - he thinks that it is a good deal to exchange his salary for red wine for so many years, and the investment is very worthwhile.
But Nasher even wanted to move back to the Blue Palace with a complete set of sofas and ornamental fish tanks, which was a bit too much.
*****
Of course, nothing unspeakable happened last night, neither the Moonstone Mask nor the Heaven and Earth, nothing restrictive happened.
In fact, there were a few ladies present last night, but they were neatly dressed from head to end.
All the guests who were invited last night just tasted the wine, talked in the salon, and occasionally picked up the instrument placed next to them to play a piece of music, and received a cheer from others!
Nasher and Jarves's disguise was too much at all, and they were advised to wear masks in the foyer - or not, of course, and the host, Shen Yan, and the main guest, Van Swijk, showed their faces throughout the whole process, actively guiding the conversation in the salon.
The conversation went on very pleasantly, and the people of the world of Faeron had not yet experienced nonsense without being responsible...... No, it's an open-hearted, open-minded conversation, which is both novel and enjoyable. The topics discussed that night ranged from commerce to art, from the situation in the Northland to the change of power.
When the Nasher duo entered, a group of people happened to be analyzing the constraints between Neverwinter, Waterdeep, and Luskan, which they described as a "triangular relationship."
Nasher came in, and naturally was invited to join the conversation.
At that time, Lord Nasher was personable on the surface, but he didn't know how many coffee tables he had overturned in his heart!
Just because you crooked melons and cracked dates are also worthy of talking about the relationship between the three cities? A bunch of foolish people!
To be honest, he was very disappointed at the time, and even Jarvis was dismissive of it. The real secret is always hidden in the depths of the Blue Palace, how could it be possible in such a place...... So they simply took a glass of wine and waited to see the joke.
As a result, a woman with a mask stood up—because the woman was in good shape and wearing some revealing clothes, Nasher thought it was a hired prostitute—and as soon as the woman spoke, he was shocked! The woman used a contemptuous tone, put aside the glitz on the political surface, put aside the rhetoric of justice and evil, and peeled off the little red fruit that the politicians of the three cities hid under their skins!
The point is that she guessed almost all the dark corners of Nasher's heart, making Nasher feel like she was stripped naked and basking in the sun! With that straightforward attitude, Nasher had the idea of turning around and running away...... So much so that when he listened to it, he didn't even feel the wine spilling on his body.
Fortunately, the conversation was quickly interrupted by a seated man, who then moved in a different direction, and Nasher breathed a sigh of relief.
However, when the man was talking about art, the occasional comments on the nobles of Waterdeep also made Nasher deeply convinced - not an insider, he would never know this kind of detail!
But no matter how much Nasher tried to break his head, he couldn't think of who this man was and the woman who spoke before. At this time, Lord Nasher couldn't guess where he was, and the identities of these people were probably not ordinary...... At least not much lower than him.
Where did Shen Yan invite this group of guests?
Later, another woman commented on Neverwinter's business system, while another man offered his own criticism of Neverwinter's dock design...... Anyway, for most of the night, Nasher felt like he wasn't attending a salon, but sitting at his desk and being bombarded by Erebes!
Crucially, these bombardments are much more high-end than the shells that Erebes smashed.
Of course, on the principle of turns, Nasher and Yalvis also had to give some opinions on certain things. Even in order not to be ashamed, I had to come up with a lot of dry goods to deal with the scene......
Then there is the link of commodity buying and selling.
The liquor served in the salon is free, but it costs money to take it away, and the price is clearly marked...... Expensive!
Everything in the product book was good, and when Nasher was still hesitating about how to choose, he saw one of the obviously older women, who casually drew a circle and said, "Do you still need to sell it in Xiaoshen?" Pack it for me. ”
The circle is drawn lightly and lightly, and the waves are not alarmed......
When Nasher heard this, he almost tore up the book of goods, and he was all included? Do you know how much that is?
Wait a minute...... You've got it all, so what do I buy?
Just now he was hesitating that things were too expensive, and those red wines were enough, he was not a person who coveted appetites.
But there are obviously only a limited number of them, and some of the goods are rare - it is impossible to appear once and the second time! He has long been moved, and when he sees this kind of treasure, he will go bankrupt and buy it! Just like a century-old mountain ginseng, buying it at home and hiding it will never depreciate - it can hang its life when it is in danger, and if it is taken out in an economic crisis, it can be exchanged for money, and this commodity must be fought for by everyone.
Fortunately, before he could speak, the male nobleman sitting in the center spoke.
"It's too much, will Xiao Shen's things still be sold?" He pointed to the bar, "I don't care about anything else, I don't understand, but at least half of the wine is left for me!" This batch of red wine is so good to my taste, I am afraid that I will never find such a good red wine in the future. Please, please, have mercy on me, an alcoholic. ”
He said it very casually, but he didn't seem to worry about others not giving face, and he was obviously full of confidence.
This made Nasher realize that those people might have known each other before, and they were guests specially invited by Shen Yan, not "customers" who came in by mistake like him.
"That's it," said the woman who had been in a bad position at first, and Nasher had always felt that she had the air of a superior in her, and that she was really imposing when she spoke. "Don't talk about it, just say those magic materials, hum, the quality is all superb!
I'm sure you won't find it on this plane!
Xiao Shen found it, brought it back, and put it in front of us, that was when we were friends. This kind of magic material, casually changing hands, is three or five times the profit, hiding it and shipping it slowly is more profitable! If you meet someone who can't ask for it, you can sell it even ten or twenty times the price!
So, let's take what you need, and don't have superfluous thoughts. ”
In a word!
The older woman from before nodded to herself, nothing to do.
She doesn't have the habit of explaining things to others, and it's none of her business what others think.
So the transaction went smoothly, and everyone picked what they needed so much. If it's just a matter of looking at it, it's better not to open your mouth. After such a toss, Nasher also gave up his desire to bargain and chose as seriously as everyone else.
As a result, he had no experience in chopping at all, and the more he bought, the more he bought, the more he bought, the more he wanted to buy...... If it weren't for Jarvis to stop him, and he couldn't write an IOU here, he was afraid that he would have squandered all the private treasury of the Blue Palace.
……
When it was almost dawn, these people said goodbye and left one by one.
This made Nasher feel more and more that these people should be of the same kind of people as him—there was no time during the day, only at night, but only once or twice a year.
He really wanted to communicate with these people, but these people used magic to teleport away when they said they were leaving, and they didn't mean to get acquainted with him at all.
……
"Hehe, do you still think he can't make money?" Nasher asked suddenly.
Jarvis shook his head speechlessly, "I just wonder where he met these people...... It stands to reason that Shen Yan has been missing for twelve years before, and he is not a brother and sister, no matter how good the relationship is, it should be light. ”
Nasher nodded.
Today, he saw very clearly, those people were vaguely circling around Shen Yan, and there was a vague meaning centered on Shen Yan.
Especially the woman's behavior of stopping the previous person Bao Yuan, it couldn't be more obvious to flatter...... What is there in Shen Yan that is worthy of the attention and flattery of these people? Even after 12 years, it doesn't decay?
"Be careful!"
Jarvis suddenly whispered in his ear, reaching out and dragging him to the side of the road.
Lord Nasher looked up and was stunned to see a large group of Tyr Holy Warriors roaring past him, surrounding Shen Yan's new shop!
"It looks like our little money fans are going to be in trouble."
Nasher said with a smile.
