Chapter 322: Promoted to Deputy Head of the Regiment
readx;?β Brother-in-law, you don't know yet. www.biquge.infoBloom has not only cultivated his fighting spirit to the realm of a high-level swordsman now, but he has also been appointed as the deputy head of the Tiger Mercenary Regiment. β
Steven was happy to see that Alan agreed to keep Quake, so he said with a smile.
"Captain Bloom has become the deputy head of the regiment, is it any wonder that the investigation into him is over when I saw him full of joy just now?"
Alan couldn't help but ask in surprise, when he left the ancient city, the mercenary guild's investigation of Bloom was still ongoing, and no results were given.
"Yes. It wasn't over when you left, but once I went to his house and gave him the gold coins that had been made from the crystals, and I happened to hear him mention it, and when I came back, I told Selena about the capture of Bloom by the horse bandits, and deliberately emphasized Bloom's bravery, strength and unyielding might. Selena felt very sympathetic to Bloom, so I urged her to go to her father, and I didn't have to plead for Bloom, just tell her the story I told her again. The result is very ideal, Lord Ogu listened to his daughter's story, and also had a good impression of Bloom, and personally cared about the matter, so the results of the investigation were quickly released, Bloom not only had no fault but meritorious, in order to commend Bloom's unyielding loyalty in the face of horse bandits, Lord Ogu specially ordered to promote Bloom to the deputy head of the mercenary group, this appointment has just been issued. I don't know where Bloom learned that I was the driving force behind this, so I'm here today to thank me. When Bloom came, Kevin happened to be in the store, and it just so happened that this patio had just been bought, and they hadn't been here yet, so I took them over to sit for a while, but I didn't expect to sit down and talk for a while, and then come back. β
Steven briefly explained to Alan why and how Bloom and Kevin appeared at home.
"I see, but looking at it this way, your words did have a role, otherwise without Selena saying good things about Bloom to Holland, this good thing might not have been Bloom's turn. β
Eren pondered for a moment, then spoke his judgment. With Allen's understanding of the mercenary kingdom, although the deputy head of a large mercenary group is not a particularly important position, after all, he can master some mercenaries for his own use, such as Bloom, a mercenary who has no power and no power in the family, and the position of the deputy head of the mercenary group may be a height that they cannot reach in several lifetimes, unless your strength is strong enough to become a great swordsman or a great magician, don't be a different matter. Bloom has reached the level of a high-level swordsman, and his strength can only be regarded as passing, meeting the necessary conditions, but it is not sufficient, and it is still Holland's approval of him.
Actually, he should be thankful for Selena. β
Steven said modestly.
"You also asked Selena for Quake's business?"
"Yes, but Quaker is a trivial matter, Selena can solve it with a word, as a business partner, it is not even a personal favor. β
While a few people were talking, the servant had already returned with a few big fat fish.
"Let's get ready to eat, and if there's anything to say, we'll talk while we eat. β
Steven took Alan and the two to the backyard of the house, where there was a manicured lawn with stone tables and stone benches, which was a good place to prepare a barbecue, and the yard had a wide view, and sitting on the stone benches could enjoy the scenic Ogu Mountain.
"You bought a good patio and the view from this location is beautiful. β
When Alan was about to barbecue, the little girl looked around at the hillside scenery and couldn't help but praise.
"Thanks to Selena for this, too!"
Steven said.
"Oh?"
Alan, who was threading the fish onto the iron stick, didn't understand what Steven meant.
"Brother-in-law, this courtyard belonged to the Ogu family before I got it, although the location is good, but because the yard is relatively small, the people of the Ogu family are not rare, so it has been idle, as soon as Selena heard that I was going to buy a house, she went home and told her father that she transferred this house to me, and the price was also very fair, otherwise who would be willing to sell me such a good courtyard in such a good location?"
Steven crouched beside Allen and replied as he helped Alan deliver various seasonings.
"When did you become so familiar with Selena?"
Alan saw Steven open and close his mouth One Selena on the left and one Selena on the right, it seemed that he was very familiar with the eldest lady of the Agu family and the pearl of Holancest's palm, and couldn't help but ask. Thinking about the eldest lady's somewhat pungent personality, he felt a little headache, so it was strange why Steven seemed to have a good relationship with her.
"Brother-in-law, you don't know. When you and Shelly had just left Aogucheng, she ran to the store, saying that the store had shares in her Aogu family, and she wanted to keep an eye on the business for the family. I didn't agree, but she didn't leave, and threatened me to come over every day to check the accounts, and I couldn't help but let her take over part of the business, but not to mention that she really had a role, and the success of the two auctions was largely due to her help. I've now given her all the orders for custom magic weapons, and I guess I'd have been annoyed by them without her dragging those merchants in tow. β
Steven explained to Alan how Selena intervened in the store after Eren left, initially, although he was forced to hand over the auction work to Selena, but he soon discovered the benefits of Selena being in charge, Selena, as the daughter of the lord of the ancient city of Oku, can use much more resources than herself, after the deliberate publicity of the Ogu family, the number of merchants who heard the news to participate in the auction suddenly increased several times, and many of them are rich people on the rich side, which makes the competition in the auction extremely fierce, and the price of many magic weapons is several times higher than expectedγ After the auction, due to Allen's absence, the operation of the store in addition to the daily visits, the rest is to take some orders for ordered magic weapons, requiring customers who order magic weapons to provide the required magic materials themselves, in addition to paying a certain amount of deposit, this part of the business is not only very high, but also has an advantage, that is, do not worry about the source of magic materials, but this kind of customers are generally either rich or expensive, many are even very influential figures on the mainland. If Steven was asked to deal with these people's agents, the pressure would be too great, so Steven simply handed over this part of the business to the eldest lady of the Ogu family, who was idle and bored and lacked a sense of existence, and let her rely on the power of the Agu family to deal with those customers who came to the door every day to urge the degree. In fact, this arrangement works very well, and many customers are forced to wait anxiously for their orders to be delivered, and even if they urge, they will try to adopt a gentle way, rather than a group of people running to the store in full gear to force Steven to deliver as soon as possible.
Coming and going, due to business matters, Steven and Selena's contacts are becoming more and more frequent, although Selena is still a big lady's temper, but fortunately, Steven has been following her, nothing to pat on the back, so that the eldest lady feels that the reason why the store can make money every day is actually mainly due to her ability, but it is also quite recognized by the eldest lady, and the two of them cooperate very happily, so many things don't even need Steven to ask her, she took the initiative to stand up to help, and gained a rare sense of accomplishment from it.
"It seems that the shares given to the Ogu family at the beginning are also worth the money, but if she does this, does Lord Ogu have no opinion?"
Alan asked with a smile.
