39: Wooing

Little by little, time is ticking.

Aslan posed as if he was admiring the artwork in the room, but he wasn't really interested in the things, his ears were listening to the conversation between Thiago and Shiram.

"Everything else is fine, the price of this sulfur should be twenty silver coins cheaper per unit, after all, sulfur has never been in high demand, and ordinary people don't need these things. Thiago said, staring into Shiram's eyes.

Shiram shook his head and smiled, "Mr. Thiago is really good at business, okay, for the sake of our first business, I won't say too much, so be it." ”

Thiago nodded and said with a satisfied smile: "Then I thank you on behalf of our master, I just calculated, according to the price we agreed, a total of 285,127 gold coins, even if it is 25,000." ”

Shiram looked at Thiago in surprise, they had just negotiated the price of each item, and he calculated the total price, which was too fast.

"Well, you wait a minute, I need to confirm again. Shiram smiled awkwardly as he spoke, taking out something that looked like an abacus and starting to calculate slowly one by one.

After about five or six minutes, Shiram wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, looked at Thiago in amazement and said, "Mr. Thiago is really hidden, I have calculated it repeatedly, and it is indeed twenty-eight five thousand one hundred and twenty-seven gold coins." ”

"Then we're going to make a deal for twenty-five thousand gold coins?" asked Thiago!

Shiram smiled: "No problem, just set the price at 25,000, if there is no objection, I will go to the contract?" Later, Shiram looked at Aslan and asked, he knew that these people still had to test this young boy to make a decision.

"No problem! Aslan looked back from the artwork next to him.

"Then don't you take a look at the price we negotiated on this hide? Shiram asked Aslan.

"No need, I trust my men, you can arrange it. Aslan laughed.

Thiago on the side heard Aslan's words, and his waist straightened, but his excited and trembling hands still revealed his mood at this time.

"Okay, I'll make this arrangement, you wait here a little longer, I'll be back soon, I'll borrow this hide first. ”

"It's okay, take it. ”

Shiram left the room with the hide.

At this time, the girl from before walked in with a few crystal cups, the girl gently put the crystal cups on the table, squatted down next to Aslan, and said with a charming smile: "Sir, you have also talked for a long time, this is the best drink in our chamber of commerce 'rosemary', please use it slowly." ”

Aslan didn't know if the girl was doing it on purpose, because her squatting position in front of her was just enough to make her eyes clearly see the fullness of her chest.

The two white and tender little rabbits dangling in front of their eyes are still very attractive.

Ahem!

Aslan coughed a few times and said, "Yes, thank you, if it's okay, we're going to talk about some personal matters." ”

The girl slowly stood up and said, "Then I'll quit first, if there is anything else you need to call me." With that, he exited the room.

Aslan picked up a cup of "rosemary" on the table, and just handed it to his mouth, he smelled a pungent fragrance rushing into his nostrils, Aslan took a few sips, and it tasted pretty good, like flower tea.

Aslan put down the crystal cup and said to Thiago on the side: "I don't see it, your ability to talk about business should be very good, I just made a rough note, you saved us at least four thousand gold coins." ”

Thiago lowered his head and said, "The adult is too modest, the villain was born in business, and he still knows a lot about these price bargains." ”

Aslan smiled: "And your previous arithmetic is really amazing, the total price was calculated so quickly, without the help of any calculation tools, and it is not bad at all." It's amazing. ”

Thiago said: "Actually, my father was also a businessman, I followed my father in the business since I was a child, and I learned a lot from hearing and seeing it, and this arithmetic skill was learned at that time. But what's the use of having so much, it's not like you're losing all your money in the end. Speaking of the latter, Thiago's tone was tinged with a hint of reluctance and sadness.

Aslan patted Thiago on the shoulder and comforted: "The world is impermanent, and it is inevitable that you will encounter some accidents, and this is not your fault. ”

Aslan continued: "Thiago would like to formally ask you now if you would like to play for me, for Flying City. ”

Tiago looked at Aslan puzzled and said, "I...... What can I do for the lord of the city, I'm just a failed merchant, I can't go into battle for the adults to kill the enemy, and I can't give advice to the adults. ”

Aslan chuckled, "None of this is for you, and I won't let you do these things, it's overkill." ”

"What do you want me to do for you?" asked Thiago curiously.

Aslan looked into Thiago's eyes and said, "What I need is your best skill, I need you to continue to be a 'businessman', but this 'businessman' represents our Flying City, and it represents me! Minister of Economy and Trade!"

"Minister of Economy and Trade, what is this for?" Thiago was still a little unfamiliar with the words, he had heard of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Minister of the Economy, but he had never heard of the word minister.

Aslan smiled, "You don't care about the name yet, you just need to understand what you're going to do." Managing the economic market of Flying City, and some things like buying and selling materials in large quantities, I will tell you in detail later. ”

Thiago asked a little skeptically: "But now in Flying City, not to mention the market, there is not even a small stall on the side of the road, at most it is better than the town of Pittandine that we passed through before." ”

Aslan shook his head and said firmly: "This, I hope you can believe me, Flying City will develop soon, it just takes a little time." And I'm going to need you to help us at this time, to become the 'official businessman' of our Flying City, to do business with the outside world, and to drive the development of our Flying City's economy. ”

"Can I really do it?" said Thiago, in disbelief.

Aslan said, "I believe in you, you just need to tell me now if you are willing to help me and be loyal to me." You will get all that you have lost before, and you will be the biggest 'merchant' on this continent, I promise. ”

Thiago really felt his heart beating again, and the excitement of more than a decade ago was back.
