In the halls of the palace, the well-fed and well-fed trio was engaged in fierce bargaining.

Charles: The murals and stones with divine power that they had removed from the hall where the Demon Breaker Sword had been found were placed in the hall, and the appraisers and auctioneers hired by the Blue Dragon Consortium were urgently called over by Ms. Lef, and these professionals with sharp horns on their heads were appraising these rare works of art.

In business, the three people who were happy at the dinner table just now were engaged in cold business negotiations next to the mural.

In order to reduce costs and increase profits, Ms. Leif plans to buy all these goods at a fixed price.

After learning from Elizabeth that the Blue Dragon Consortium controlled by Lady Lev has the largest auction house in the continent, it was decided to auction these goods.

As the agent who introduced Charles here, Elizabeth sided with Charles for a 5% agency fee on the transaction price.

At Charles's insistence, Ms. Leif had to agree to auction the goods. Then Elizabeth and Ms. Lef, who sided with Charles on the interests, bargained over the auction commission.

Charles didn't know much about business things, so he chose to leave the professional things to the professionals. He didn't think that his three-legged cat's commercial prowess could compete with the dragon who had fought in the mall for hundreds of years and built such a lavish palace.

Nowadays, many young people are kings on the keyboard, and when they go to the vegetable market, they may not be able to bargain with those vegetable vendors.

After more than an hour, the negotiations were concluded, and the goods were handed over to the Chaowei Blue Dragon Consortium for operation, and the commission for the auction was calculated in a tiered manner. Since the one-time release of these goods into the market will reduce the yield, the auctioneer will put these goods on the market year by year. Proceeds from each auction are subject to a minimum commission, and all commissions are settled at the end of the last auction.

While drawing up the contract in Ms. Lef's office, Charles offered to divide the proceeds in three equal parts, and after he revealed the identities of the other two, Aunt Leif was interested.

"How did you get mixed up with that Goblin A?" Aunt Leif asked, "but he can be trusted." ”

Because the Goblin A had Queen Victoria's endorsement, Charles told Elizabeth about meeting him in the first place. For Queen Victoria's partner, Charles did not hide it.

"The target of our mission that day happened to be the fugitive he was pursuing. Charles replied.

However, Charles did not tell Elizabeth and Leif about the later discovery of the Demon Breaker Sword and the Swing Oolong, so if you can hide these things, you can hide them.

Then Charles asked, "Aunt Leif, you should be able to send the money to the demons, right?"

"Yes, even if I send you there now. Aunt Leif smiled and replied, "Would you like to go over and have a look?"

Charles shook his head, although Alexei had invited him before, and he was also curious about that side, but he didn't want to go over there to see it yet, and even if he did, he would have to finish some things.

After signing the contract, Charles asked, "Can I divide my proceeds into three parts, two of which will be given to my sisters?"

"No problem, we can send money through the temple to the people you designate, as long as they have a temple there. Of course, there is a fee for remittance and inter-temple remittance. Aunt Leif touched Charles's head and said, "Charles, are you interested in using this money to buy some financial products from us?"

Charles was stunned for a moment, what the hell is this financial product?

So he asked, "What kind of business does your consortium do?"

Ms. Leif didn't answer Charles's question, she stretched and said, "Don't stay here when you're done with work." Let's talk about it in another place. ”

With that, she pulled Charles out of the office.

In the residential area at the back of the palace there is a huge bathroom, which is the building that Charles has been most stunning to him since he came into this world.

What struck him here was not the elaborate decoration on the walls of the bathroom, but the roof at the top of the bathroom, which was almost forty meters in diameter, combined with a large piece of transparent glass-like material.

Large-span buildings with a roof space of more than 30 meters appeared very early, and the diameter of the dome of the Pantheon in ancient Rome reached 43 meters. However, the dome structures are made of stone, and the ceiling of this bathroom is a single-layer curved grid structure in the shape of a dome.

I just don't know whether this steel structure relies on calculation or experience when designing.

There was also the glass-like transparent plate, which Charles asked Aunt Leif was made of, and the answer was "trade secret, no comment".

Soaking in the warm hot water of the bath after eating and drinking was so comfortable that Charles almost took a nap in the bath.

He asked Aunt Leif beside him, "Auntie, what kind of business are your consortiums doing?"

Leif in dragon form was also soaking in the middle of the bath, leaving her a large enough and deep enough spot.

The blue-scaled dragon stretched out its claws and gently rubbed Charles's head, and then replied: "We are mainly engaged in financial management, lending, insurance, pawn, investment, logistics, commodity trade and debt collection. ”

The business at the beginning was quite normal, after all, it was a long-established industry, but the last business was a little strange. A dragon the size of a house is collecting debts in front of him, and he doesn't know who can withstand it.

Seeing that Charles was a little dizzy, Leif asked him to go to rest early.

After Charles left the bathroom, Leif said to Elizabeth, "Did you really decide to do that? I think he's a nice boy." ”

Elizabeth, who was flushed in the bath, said: "Since he has decided to learn from me, I will see what his mind is like." ”

"I was going to spend a few months to see how his mind was going, but a lot of things happened a while ago and he handled it well, so I decided to take him to find out. No matter what the final result is, I will take him as a disciple. ”

Leif in the middle of the bath was already immersed in the hot water, she stretched out her slender neck and rested her chin on the edge of the bath, and said, "If he knew that the labyrinth he made would become a place for psychological testing, he didn't know what kind of expression he would make." ”
