On the second day, it was getting late. The Waterfront Baron's Mansion that has been renamed Trist Manor by Zuoze. At this time, in front of the gate of the manor, a large number of carriages came, and the merchants of the Federation dressed in gold and silver stepped out of the carriages, all of whom were invited by Nayev to attend the housewarming dinner of the Trist family.

Witt disguised himself as a butler and stood at the door to greet the arrival of the various merchants. The Stalkers became squires and maids-in-waiting, Avril as the chief handmaiden, kept busy, leaving Vader and Barnes Jr. to take care of the crystal ball, and Lester became the new bodyguard, following in the footsteps of Zoze.

Zuo Ze and the others didn't know the form of the aristocratic banquet in the Torrell world at all, so they had to copy the aristocratic banquet of Barserea, which opened the eyes of these wealthy merchants in the Northland, after all, the Northland is a very cold place in the Feron Continent, and when they go out of the city, they are wilderness full of monsters, which is not as good as the southern temperate region that has been developed for thousands of years.

When all the magic lights in the reception hall are lit, the renovated manor looks beautiful. Zuo Ze was dressed in a decent suit and slowly walked down from the second floor and walked into the venue with a smile on his face. For a while, the chatter of the rich businessmen became much quieter, but the eyes of the female companions they brought with them lit up, and they had an expression of eagerness to eat Zuo Ze.

"Ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for your condescension to my new home, and I hope you forgive me for the inappropriate hospitality. Let me toast you. Holding the elf wine produced in Silvermoon City, Zuo Ze said loudly to the guests around him.

These wealthy businessmen also learned about Zuo Ze's business plan through Nayev, and for the sake of profit, they would of course cater to Zuo Ze's style, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves for a while.

"The dinner has officially begun, and I hope everyone can have a nice evening." Zuo Ze, who didn't want to waste time on a long speech, said with a serious and reserved smile. In Zuo Ze's eyes, the wealthy businessmen of these federations are his best cover, and the next plan still needs them, Zuo Ze doesn't mind continuing to act.

When the band hired from the city played music, a group of wild bees and butterflies couldn't wait to come to Zuo Ze's side, hoping to dance the first dance with him. Zuo Ze, who doesn't even know how to waltz, how could he expose his ugliness and invite them to dance together.

Lester stepped forward as a guard, blocking their approach; Witt, as a housekeeper, walked over with a very good eye, looking like he had something to talk about in detail, and relieved Zuo Ze.

"No surprises, right?" Zuo Ze asked in a low voice.

Witt stood behind Zuo Ze, like a dutiful butler, and said, "My lord, please rest assured. They were all merchants, and their guards were in the antechamber; At the same time, those forces were also watching, and no abnormalities were found. ”

Zuo Ze nodded, walked slowly towards Nayev, and before the person arrived, he opened his arms and smiled hypocritically, "Oh, my dear partner, Nayev, thank you for coming, can you introduce me to your friends?" ”

Nayev, who had come for the fleet, said with a smile, "Of course, my friend. This adult is the Vice-President of the Federation, Mr. Carla Guchino. He's a big merchant specializing in magical items. ”

"Hello, President Guccino. Thank you for stopping by. "Zuo Ze brazenly told lies for the sake of the materials of the Floating City." It's a pleasure to meet you, Sir Trist. I think we'll have a good time in the days to come. Guchino said reservedly.

Seeing that Zuo Ze was so good at something, Nayev hurriedly introduced, "This is the first-class merchant of the Federation, Mr. Max Irons, he specializes in shipping from the Secret Silver Hall to Waterdeep City, and the two of us will need more attention from him in the future." ”

As soon as Zuo Ze heard the Secret Silver Hall, his eyes lit up, and he smiled enthusiastically but decently, "Haha, that's of course, with Mr. Irons leading the way, we can also take fewer detours." ”

Nayev finally introduced the most important guest, and the others were only invited to fill the scene, which was insignificant. Zuo Ze also knew, and with a wave of his hand behind him, Witt elegantly said goodbye and left, to deal with those small roles. Zuo Ze personally led the way, led the three guests out of the hall just now, and walked towards the study on the second floor.

Go to the study and let Lester stay outside the door so that no one can disturb their conversation.

Zuo Ze and the others sat down around a luxurious coffee table, and the chief maid Avril served a drink and left quietly. Seeing that the irrelevant personnel were gone, Irons took the lead in speaking in order to seize the initiative, "Sir Trist, although Nayef has already told me and the president about your situation, but for the sake of the next cooperation. I still need to ask. ”

Zuo Ze carried the coffee cup, took a sip, and made a gesture of invitation casually, neither arrogant nor weak.

"Please forgive me for being rude, the next words may not sound good. As far as I know, the distance from Amm to Yatta is more than 1,600 kilometers in a straight line, and this distance is too far if it is to save my life; If it's the same problem in order to regain the territory, it's too far away, can you explain why? If it's inconvenient, just let me be chatting. Irons asked, retreating.

Zuo Ze knew that he had to answer, and the answer had to stand up to scrutiny, otherwise there would be no need to talk about any cooperation next, and his plan would be blocked. Zuo Ze gently put down the coffee cup and smiled hypocritically, "Hahaha, it turns out that Mr. Irons is worried about this problem. Wait, I'll show you something, and you'll understand why I'm here to settle in Yata. ”

After speaking, Zuo Ze got up and left, took out the [Ebony and White Rose] from the desk, and asked the two guns to be placed on the coffee table for them to see. Except for Nayev, who is only a local merchant in Yata and doesn't know much about magical items, both Guchino and Irons are discerning merchants.

The two of them each picked up a pistol, and after careful observation, they raised their heads to look at each other at the same time, and kept making PY transactions with their eyes, like lovers in love. Zuo Ze watched the two natives "flirting with their eyebrows", and almost couldn't hold back his laughter, so he had to cover it up by lifting his coffee cup.

However, Nayev was convinced of his promised partner status because he saw Zuo Ze start building ships, and watched the vague exchange between Guchino and Guchino with his eyes.

Guchino put down his pistol and said the first thing he said as he entered the study, "Sir Trist, I think we've got it, so can the master who can make this weapon introduce us to us?" Zuo Ze drank coffee, smiled but didn't say anything, but he smiled in his heart, you understand, I don't understand it myself, you can really make up for it, Zuo Ze thought.

However, in order to make the information in their brains fuller, Zuo Ze hesitated and said, "That Excellency once received the help of the family, and after I asked him for help, he specially entrusted this business to me, if I bothered him, I was afraid that ......" Without finishing speaking, Zuo Ze left the three of them with infinite reverie (blind thoughts).

Guccino, who specializes in magical items, knows the temper of those mages very well, and they are all very strange, at least in his eyes. Guchino nodded, agreeing with Zuo Ze's statement; Irons was originally from Guccino's side, and when he saw that the boss recognized it, he also nodded.

The next thing is easy to do, Zuo Ze told the two of them that His Excellency needed a large amount of magic materials, at least 200,000 platinum coins, and handed over the franchise of new magic weapons to Guccino, and in the future, the operation of the fleet was entrusted to Irons, promising them to take them to meet the Excellency once the magic materials were in place.

For a while, everyone enjoyed the guests. In the eyes of Guchino and Irons, Zuo Ze is an idiot aristocrat who is high-eyed and low-handed, relying on the glory of his ancestors and waiting for death, and easily handing over a large amount of benefits to himself, as long as Zuo Ze introduces the master to them, they can almost kick him away, and they have all the benefits themselves.

Zuo Ze teased them as if he had seen a fat pig, hiding the ridicule deep in the laughter. Don't rely on these natives, where can you get a lot of magic materials, for the sake of the floating city in the future, Zuo Zecai doesn't care how inferior his means are, as long as he can go home, don't try to stop him.

Of the four, Nayev was the happiest and the most ignorant. Nayev also thought that he could make a lot of money, and it was good luck to have dealings with the big names of the federation.

Poor boy, I don't know if he will be able to smile so brightly when he gets the truth. Zoze looked at Nayev with pity.
