Chapter 20 Partners
Jonny saw Damian's wary gaze, which confirmed his suspicion even more.
"Don't get me wrong, the news did come from Siegel, but Buchiko and I are not friends, and we should technically be enemies. Jonny explained.
Hearing this, Damian thought of Shark Gazo's comment that "Marquis Jonny is a good person", and thought to himself that maybe this person was a person who could cooperate.
Damian smiled and said, "Marquis Jonny, you're right, Black Dragon does have this effect, but the price is ......."
"There is no problem with the price, if the black dragon is really so magical, then no matter how high the price is, the Medici is willing to afford. ”
"Okay. Damian heard Jonny say it all, took out a bottle of black dragon from the obsidian counter, and handed it to Jonny.
Jonny took the black-glazed ceramic vial, opened the cap and looked at it, it contained a brown paste-like object, and sniffed it closely, and the smell of a fishy sweet sea breeze came to his nose, which immediately made people feel refreshed.
Gazo, the shark who hadn't spoken since he entered the store, couldn't help it at this time, and he asked Damian, "You told me that this can heal the invasion of evil spirits, is it true?"
"Needless to say, Gazo. "It's Jonny who speaks," Count Buchko had confirmed for us last night. ”
"Oh my God!" Shark Gazo's eyes changed as he looked at Damian, and he leaned forward and asked, "Is this the work of Lord Merlin?"
That's what Jonny cares about, too.
Damian hesitated for a moment, but finally replied, "Black Dragon has nothing to do with the teacher, but it is true that I did not develop it. ”
For this question, Damian has thought for a long time, the black dragon is derived from Lawson's formula, and it has not been circulated in large quantities, and the dragon has disappeared for thousands of years, so no one should be able to guess that the raw material is dragon feces.
But such a potion that is enough to change history, people will definitely care about who the inventor is. Even if Damian said it was himself, no one would believe it.
Although it is possible to push everything on the teacher externally, Merlin has not taken the blame for Damian once or twice anyway. But Merlin himself will come to find out, so Damian decides to fictionalize a mysterious big character to explain the origin of Black Dragon's life and the strange things he has been doing.
But Jonny thinks differently, he thinks that even if Black Dragon is not Merlin's work, it has nothing to do with him. So Damian opened a small shop here, probably at the behest of his teacher.
"Whoever inventors it is, it must be a great big shot. Jonny exclaimed, holding up the ceramic vase in his hand, "So, how much does this great work cost?"
"50 gold. Damian looked into Jonny's eyes.
Jonny's expression didn't change when he heard this price, but the shark next to him, Gazo, was there and how much did you say!?
"The price is no problem at all, and it's ......," Jonny said slowly, "and we're willing to pay 80 gold per bottle." ”
"What?" Damian couldn't believe his ears, for the first time in so many years, he had encountered a buyer who had taken the initiative to raise prices.
"Blackclaw can rebuild your father's empire. "So at what cost?" these two lines popped into Damian's mind inexplicably.
"What do you want?" asked Damian.
The "Overwatch" who was indiscriminately reminded that since Jonny offered such a generous price, he must have asked for something.
"Hopefully, Medici and the Dragon House will have a long-term relationship. Jonny finally threw out the purpose of the trip.
Damian pondered that Jonny was a friendlier person than Buccico, perhaps the nobles were all the same in private, but at least the former was more trustworthy than the latter in business, and Jonny and Capone had a good personal relationship, which also provided a layer of protection for the cooperation between the two sides. The most important thing is that Damian really needs a partner to promote and sell black dragon to the whole Lorraine and even the entire continent.
After some thought, Damian took a look at it, and he smiled at Jonny, "The Dragon House also needs a long-term partner, and the Medici family may be a good choice." ”
"That's nature, at least better than that golden scale. Jonny said with a smile.
"Hopefully this is the beginning of a great friendship, Mr. Damian. Jonny held out his hand.
Damian also reached out and shook Jonny's hand.
"It was a pleasure to work with. ”
.........
After an afternoon of pleasant conversations, Damian and Jonny reached an agreement on a hundred bottles a month for six months.
Jonny immediately moved the first month's payment of 8,000 gold, a large box of Lorraine gold coins, into the store.
Damian also gave Jonny the promised hundred bottles of Black Dragon, which was already the entire stock in the store.
Shark Gazo was stunned to see the two of them complete this transaction close to 10,000 gold as casually as buying vegetables in the vegetable market, and sighed that it was really unfair to compare the Sea Snake Party to fight for their lives for a business of a few hundred gold.
"Now that we're partners, you don't have to worry about Siegel, we're happy to deal with it. Jonny left this sentence before leaving, to show his sincerity.
Damian, of course, would be willing for Jonny to help him solve this big problem, but it also reminded him that without his own power, he will always be controlled by others.
Whether it's Merlin's "Three-Headed Dragon" or Gazo's "Sea Serpent", it's all powers that Damian can borrow now, but it's always someone else's. The only "dragon legion" that belongs to Damian himself is still too young to protect him.
"Can I hire some people to serve as the defense force of the dragon house?" Damien thought, after all, he was doing business in a different world with no legal protection, how could he do it without his own team, and the large and small chambers of commerce in Lorraine had their own armed forces under their control.
"Shark Boss, I want to hire some people to be the guards in the shop, where should I find them?" Damian thought about these things, Shark Gazzo should know it.
Gazo thought for a moment and said: "The bounty guild in the city provides mercenary services, but this is not a long-term solution, mercenaries, if you have milk, you are a mother, and your loyalty can be imagined." ”
"You're so rich now...... Gazo punched Damian, "you can go to the Lion Bounty Guild in Uptown, where the employers are mostly nobles, and the quality of the mercenaries is much better." ”
"Okay, thank you Shark Boss, I'll check it out another day. ”
"Brother, I have done such a big deal today, call the brothers of the Shanghai Snake Party, let's go have a drink together?" Damian was in a good mood, and actually took the initiative to ask Shark Gazo to drink.
"You still need to say that I have to kill you today!" the two laughed, and walked into the Blackstone Tavern next door.
