The reason why Duke talks to Prince Harry about business is not for the prince himself, but for the following group of gentlemen. But Duke understands that his image of straw bale waste in the past is too eye-catching, and even if he tries his best to stand up today, it is impossible to quickly change his previous image.

Therefore, if you want to really control this group of gentlemen, let them contact the family to open the market, and even put the family badge on the carriage of goods transportation, you need to rely on Prince Harry, the nominal boss, to do the coordination.

Prince Harry, who received a royal education since he was a child, was not stupid, he instantly understood Duke's intentions, and replied: "I understand what you mean, but since I am in business, what benefits can I get." ”

"The annual service fee is not less than 50,000 gold coins, and if the business is going well, this figure will be increased to more than 100,000 gold coins!"

When Duke said the number, he could clearly feel Prince Harry's body tremble. Because they don't have a fief to live in the royal family in the palace, the annual offering is generally about a few thousand gold coins, to put it in modern terms, that is, millions of pocket money a year.

For ordinary people, these thousands of gold coins cannot be spent in a lifetime, because the price consumption level in this world is far lower than that of modern times, and the purchasing power is even higher. But for Prince Harry, the head of the family, it is simply not enough to spend, and many times he has to rely on Princess Gina and his queen mother to help him barely maintain his own expenses.

Not to mention 100,000 gold coins, even the allure of 50,000 gold coins is amazing, this number has completely broken Prince Harry's psychological defense, and he replied with a flush of excitement on his face: "No problem, I did this business!"

Hearing Prince Harry's agreement, Duke replied with a satisfied smile on his face: "Your Royal Highness, you have made a very wise choice. Soon Andy, the commercial officer of Stormcastle, will be in the Imperial Capital, and I just need you to cooperate with him as best you can. ”

If it were to be changed to another situation, it would be a joke to ask the prince of a country to cooperate with the small lord and commercial official. But with enough gold coins, Prince Harry agreed without any hesitation, he really needed the money so badly.

Tens of thousands of gold coins to get this thing done is simply too cost-effective for Duke, because you must know that Duke has paid the price of 20% of the dry shares to open up the trade routes of the Andorran pro-kingdom. And the reason why Duke is willing to give up two layers of dry shares in the face of the Prince of Andorra is because the Prince of Andorra is not so easy to handle, after all, with a fief of a country, it is not that he has never seen money.

Another point is that the market of Andorra's pro-kingdom is beginning to be saturated, and the sales volume in a month is only about 100,000 gold coins at most, which also includes the addition of new ironware products. Then Duke exaggerated the cost, and the profit of 20% of the dry shares was only about 10,000 gold coins, which was about 120,000 gold coins in a year.

But Prince Harry is different, and this may be at least a large market of millions of gold coins, as Duke said. Even Duke estimated that within half a year of the start of sales, sales might be able to exceed one million gold coins every month, and then it would shrink as the market became saturated.

Of course, unlike the small transportation of the Andal Princes, the cost of selling to the entire territory of the French Empire, plus the cost of opening a store, will also skyrocket. At the same time, there are territorial taxes and tithes, and profits cannot be as exaggerated as in Andorra. But even if it is so, it will at least pay Prince Harry hundreds of thousands of gold coins a year.

Therefore, it is impossible for Duke to share with Prince Harry, and Prince Harry is not qualified and strong to share with Duke! Because compared with his two elder brothers, this Prince Harry is too much worse and too tender.

After negotiating the "business" with Prince Harry, how to persuade those nobles and the second generation is Prince Harry's business. If it is not negotiated, it will be 50,000 a year, and if it is negotiated, it may be 100,000 a year, which will greatly promote Prince Harry's enthusiasm for doing things, just like the sales performance of later generations.

When Duke walked down the stairs, there was no one at the banquet table, and everyone entered the box and began to do unspeakable things. Still, there was a man sitting at the banquet table, an elf to be exact.

The elven slave girl who served Duke before, after having Saruman's lesson, no one dared to take her away. In addition, Duke went upstairs directly to discuss business with Prince Harry, so she naturally couldn't keep up, so she could only sit trembling and wait.

Seeing Duke come down, the elf slave girl's eyes were full of pleading and pity when she looked at Duke. Duke's actions before made her feel the difference in the man in front of her, at least she didn't have that kind of lust when she looked at herself.

Duke saw the eyes of this elf slave girl, he naturally understood what this look meant, just like the last straw of a drowning man, even if he knew that Duke was just a "prostitute", but this elf slave girl still pinned her hopes on herself, hoping to take her away.

It was at this time that Fei Duo walked in from outside the door and said, "My lord, the carriage is ready. ”

"I see. Duke looked away from the elven slave girl and prepared to leave. As Duke had thought, he didn't have the power to save it, because slaves were the rules and regulations of this world, unless he could overturn them.

Just as Duke turned around, there was the sound of a stool collapsing behind him, and Duke glanced back, and the elf slave girl pounced in his direction. But because of the shackles on his body, he took the seat next to him.

"Don't go, don't. ”

This action of the elf slave girl instantly attracted the boss and guards of the Happy Palace, and several strong men lifted her up from the ground and dragged her to the room, because they thought that the elf slave girl's actions were intended to escape.

At this time, the tears of the elf slave girl flowed down, and her eyes changed from pleading to despair, she understood that pinning her ethereal hope on the human nobles was a luxury in itself, and her fate was already doomed.

"Put her down, I bought this elf slave girl. ”

Duke's voice suddenly came, which surprised the owner of the Happy Palace, and he replied at a loss, "Viscount Duke, these elf slave girls are the signboard ...... just captured"

"How much. "Duke didn't talk too much nonsense.

"Viscount Duke, we have no plans to sell them for the time being, after all, you know how rare female elves are. ”

"Finally, I will ask you how much. ”

Hearing Duke's tone, coupled with everything that happened in the banquet hall before, although the owner of the Happy Palace had a certain background, he didn't intend to offend Duke in this state.

After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and replied, "Ten thousand gold coins." ”

"Tomorrow go to the Otto Club and get the money. ”

After Duke replied coldly, he took out Fei Duo's long sword, directly cut the shackles on the elf slave girl's feet, and then grabbed her wrist and led her out of the gate of the Happy Palace. 8910
