Chapter 15: Don't be afraid, I'm just talking about business

After a day of fighting in the alchemy room, Casio, Carl and the others only made more than a dozen "Ouch Booms", which did not meet Casio's psychological expectations. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He wished that there would be a few hundred of them, covering the entire perimeter of the manor with "oops", and then it would be interesting to see how those people from the Moon Shadow Council could attack it.

However, he also understands that Carl and his apprentices are not skilled at this stage, and this kind of thing can be thought of, but don't get too much hope.

When he came out of the alchemy room with a sore back, he was surprised to find that Vanna was still standing in the hall.

"What's going on? Why did you get back?"

Casio looked surprised, a round trip from Otes City to Greenwater Town, even if it was fast, it would take nearly two days.

Even if Vanna was lucky enough to deliver the letter directly to the representative of the Four-Clawed Dragon Chamber of Commerce, he would never have been able to return it so quickly.

When Vanna saw Casio, he immediately saluted and explained, "Your Royal Highness, I have indeed sent the letter. However, after reading it, His Excellency Douglas of the Four-Clawed Dragon Chamber of Commerce immediately activated the positioning teleportation and returned to Green Water Town with me. ”

Hearing what Vanna said, Casio raised his eyebrows slightly.

He knew that what he gave to the Four-Clawed Dragon Chamber of Commerce would definitely be able to attract the attention of the other party, but he didn't expect that the other party would attach such importance to it, and directly used the means of positioning and teleportation, and rushed to Lushui Town in a hurry.

The world of Gurea is a super demon world, and things like positioning and teleportation will naturally not be lacking.

It's just that it costs a lot of money to activate a location teleportation, and most location teleportations can only teleport a limited number of people and distances, making it more expensive to teleport once.

Not to mention ordinary people, even some nobles and wealthy businessmen dare not try it easily!

As Vanna spoke, a tall, thin, middle-aged man dressed in a black half-suit walked over and made an impeccable salute to Casio.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, Douglas Hurt, the representative of the Four-Clawed Dragon Chamber of Commerce in Oteas City, is a great honor to meet you!"

Looking at the shrewd Douggs in front of him, Casio replied with a smile.

"I'm honored to meet you, too, Douglas. ”

"Let's go in and talk. Casio said, and Douglas led the way to the upstairs room.

After the maid served the drink and slowly exited the room, Douglas took out the parchment that Casio had asked Vanna to hand him from his bosom.

Opening the parchment roll on the table, Douglas asked tentatively, "Your Royal Highness, do you really have all the contents of this recipe in your hands?"

Casio glanced at the parchment scroll that Douglas had opened, and it was not an invitation or anything like that, but a low-level recipe called a potion of vitality.

The Vitality Potion is an alchemy potion that speeds up wound healing and restores some of your stamina.

Moreover, in addition to the unique holy water of life of the Temple of Life, the most cost-effective potion used to heal wounds, has a good sales volume throughout Gureia.

It's just that this recipe is not comprehensive, except for the record of the ingredients, in some key places such as the mix ratio and boiling time, there is no record.

Casio took a sip of water from his cup, looking at ease.

After putting down the cup, Casio looked at Douglas with a smile: "Your Excellency Dauges, since I asked my knight to go to you specifically, you shouldn't doubt me. ”

Casio's words were tepid, that is, he could not hear the anger or the meaning of jokes, which made Douglas, a shrewd businessman who was good at observing words and colors, not sure what Casio was thinking at this time for a while.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you have misunderstood, I am not suspicious of you, but I want to confirm again. Douglas couldn't figure out what Casio was thinking at this time, and it was not easy to further extract information from the other party.

Casio didn't care either, and asked directly, "Lord Douglas, how much do you think this recipe is worth?"

Douglas' eyes rolled slightly, and his instinct as a businessman led him to start evaluating Casio's own pricing for this formula.

After a moment's thought, Douglas replied, "Although the improved recipe of this vitality potion seems valuable, after all, it is only an improved low-level vitality potion, which makes its value somewhat damaged. ”

As he spoke, Douglas carefully observed Casio's expression, and seeing that Casio was still silent, he immediately changed his words: "Of course, even so, it is still a rare and exquisite recipe. So my preliminary estimate is that it's at least worth the price!"

Douglas said, holding out two fingers.

Looking at Douges, Casio couldn't help but smile in his heart, Douglas was worthy of being the representative of the Four-Clawed Dragon Chamber of Commerce in the city of Outes, but he was quite skilled in negotiating business.

Just say that he stretched out two fingers, but he didn't say what unit these two fingers were, it can be seen that he is retreating and advancing, wanting to see Casio's performance.

"Two hundred thousand gold coins?"

Hearing Casio's answer, Douglas almost jumped up from his chair all at once.

"Is it true that His Royal Highness the prince doesn't understand what I say? I said that the value of this formula is limited, how can he come up with such an outrageous price!"

Douglas thought in his heart, but found that Casio had a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, and his heart was shocked, understanding that the other party was seeing through his trick and deliberately teasing him!

Douglas felt a pang in his heart, wiped the sweat that didn't exist, and smiled bitterly: "Your Royal Highness, you are really joking. ”

At the same time, Douglas couldn't help muttering in his heart, he had naturally heard more or less about Casio's deeds, and he thought that Casio was a recipe from the Dolan royal family, and if he wanted to sell it for some money, it shouldn't be difficult to deal with.

But just a few words of exchange put him in a disadvantageous situation unconsciously after many years of business, is this really His Royal Highness the Third Prince who does not learn and has no skills?

Casio pretended not to see Douges's embarrassed state, rubbed his index finger lightly against the cup, and slowly spoke: "Your Excellency Dauges, don't think I'm joking, in fact, I'm still very good at this price." ”

Douglas was stunned for a moment, seeing that Casio's tone didn't look like a joke.

The defensive psychology that had just risen in his heart towards Casio couldn't help but be shattered by Casio's words, thinking that Casio was really a prince who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, and his mouth was the posture of a lion's big mouth.

Without waiting for him to refute, Casio continued: "Let's do the math, the cost price of this improved recipe for this low-level vitality potion will be about 20 copper coins less than the original bottle, but the effect will be nearly three layers higher than the original. I don't take into account your price increases, but just squeeze your competitors in a cheap way. ”

After a pause, Casio deliberately counted with his fingers straight: "Your Chamber of Commerce should now sell about 3 million vitality potions per year every year, and once you use a good and cheap way to squeeze your opponents, then the sales can at least double, or even more." ”

With every word Casio said, Douglas couldn't help twitching in his heart, because the price and sales volume that Casio said, although not an accurate number, are basically eight or nine or ten.

"How could he know so well?" Douglas suddenly felt a sense of horror in his heart, as if all the gambler's hole cards had been exposed to his opponent's eyes.

At this time, Casio was still calculating: "Next, we don't consider the loss caused by your own loss of the formula, then after using the improved formula, the net profit increased per bottle is about 20 copper coins, and the annual sales volume is 6 million bottles." Then, the profit that I have increased every year from this improved formula is enough to 12,000 gold coins. Almost, you'll be able to recoup your costs in about fifteen years!"

"And now, Lord Dowgels, do you still think I'm talking nonsense?" Casio said, looking at Douglas with a smirk.

Douglas no longer had the initial calmness at this time, his back was soaked in cold sweat, and he looked at Casio with a slight distraction.
