52. Being a lover of the husband of the goddess 1 - dilemma
Miranda rubbed her eyebrows, her brain swelling a little as she was busy.
The High Elf mages maintain the magic machines, the dwarves mine the magic crystals, the dark elves defend during the day, the Bloods guard at night, the shops in Lobit City sell and purchase, and sign long-term supply agreements with some large caravans, all of which are summarized here by Miranda, and she does most of the day-to-day decisions.
The huge workload is several times more than when I was at the Cooper Chamber of Commerce.
This made Miranda feel overwhelmed, but even more passionate, and the cells in her body seemed to be full of energy.
Picking up a glass of whiskey on the table, pure, not mixed with water, the strong impact stimulated Philip's nerves, this feeling that even pure masters may not be able to withstand but Miranda enjoyed it very much.
Philip's office in the Lord's Mansion for Miranda has a desk, a bar, a sofa, a coffee table, and even a lounge chair for a nap.
"Knock knock!"
There was a knock on the office door.
"Come in. ”
After receiving Miranda's permission, a servant appeared respectfully at the door, and they both knew how much the lady of the lord took it.
"Lady Miranda, there is a Mr. Robin at the gate of the Lord's Mansion who claims to be your relative and wishes to see you. ”
Miranda put down the wine glass in her hand, her face hesitated, her mouth moved, and she seemed to be about to say something of refusal, but when the words came to her mouth, she sighed deeply: "Let him in, but don't let people see it." ”
After a while, a middle-aged man with a slightly fat figure and a slight frown on his eyebrows always seemed to be slightly wrinkled led by the servant to Miranda's room.
"Uncle, long time no see. ”
Miranda showed a smile on her face to the middle-aged man, in private, Miranda rarely smiled at men, everyone knows that this shrewd and capable female president of the Chamber of Commerce likes women, and it is very good to be able to maintain a polite smile on a man who is pleasing to her eyes.
However, for his own uncle Robin, who often helped him when he was a child, Miranda can show a real smile.
"Yes, my little Miranda. Robin's eyebrows seemed to stretch out a little, and he sat down on the sofa in the reception area as Miranda had instructed.
Taking the whiskey from his niece's hands, Robin took a sip and let out a sigh of exclamation, "Miranda, it seems that the boy of the Ross family is very good to you, the office with the suite and the office of the reception area, the haode whiskey, this is much better than being a housekeeper in the small chamber of commerce in Wellington." ”
Miranda smiled, she didn't plan to discuss this topic with Robin, she naturally remembered the importance that Philip valued herself, although her uncle was kind to her when she was a child, but since she refused to send her to other families as a political marriage, Robin had less contact with their family.
"Uncle, what wind brought you to the remote and barren town of Lobit?"
"It's a bit remote, it's located on the edge of the empire, as for the barrenness, I don't see it, Lobit has you, I believe it will prosper, I'm very optimistic about your ability." Robin smiled and flattered Miranda, which also made Miranda very vigilant, although this shijie did not have a famous saying of the Celestial Empire such as "nothing to do, be courteous or be a thief", but similar thoughts always exist.
Robin smiled and continued: "Miranda, the family hopes that you will not forget the grace of cultivation, if you can tell the family the secret of the cheap magic crystals sold by Lobit, we will definitely reward you, the Cooper Chamber of Commerce has reserved a position for you as a senior steward." ”
In the Cooper Chamber of Commerce, the position of a senior steward is even better than the treatment of the president of some small chambers of commerce, after entering and exiting, the high-level carriage and servants, have a good salary every month, with Prime Minister Anthony is a strong political backstage of the Cooper family, and the price advantage brought by large-scale purchase and sales, it is easy to do a good job, and at the end of the year, you can also get a large amount of generous dividends.
There is no need to spend a large amount of money every year on officials at all levels, as small chambers of commerce do, and they also have to worry about the losses that may be caused by price wars with competitors.
For those children of the Cooper family who are outside the family chamber of commerce, being able to return to the family as a senior steward is definitely their dream.
"That's impossible. Miranda refused without even thinking about it.
She is now also a small shareholder of the Magic Electrical Chamber of Commerce, once the secret of the charging magic crystal and magic machine is leaked, the sales of the Magic Electric Chamber of Commerce will be greatly affected, with the Cooper Chamber of Commerce's large-scale procurement ability, the cost of their recycling magic crystal will be lower, the procurement and manufacturing cost of magic machine materials will also be lower, and the cost of the charged magic crystal sold will still be lower than that of the Magic Electric Chamber of Commerce, and it will be impossible for the Magic Electric Chamber of Commerce to enter the whole country or even the whole continent in the future.
Any harmful move by the Magic Chamber of Commerce will also hurt Miranda's own interests, not to mention, Philip has great trust in her, and he basically will not interfere in the daily decisions of the Chamber of Commerce, and let Miranda do it, which is unthinkable in the Cooper Chamber of Commerce.
In that huge business organization, there will always be a higher level of fool who is confident to find fault with your mistakes, as if he has never had a glimmer of experience and is hundreds of times better than you.
As someone who really wanted to make a career, Miranda thought that the president of the Magic Electric Chamber of Commerce was much better than the senior steward of the Cooper Chamber of Commerce.
After refusing, Miranda still patiently said the idea that she would stay in the Magic Electric Chamber of Commerce and have more career prospects, of course, Miranda did not say anything about her current small boss in the Magic Electric Chamber of Commerce.
After all, Robin is his own uncle.
The more Robin listened, the more ugly his face became, he originally thought that he had a great favor to his niece, and he went out by himself, Miranda gave the secret hands of cheap magic crystals without saying a word, but unexpectedly, Miranda pushed back.
Seeing Miranda's rather resolute tone, Robin frowned and pondered for a moment, then changed his way and said: "Miranda, even if you are unwilling to hand over the secret of the cheap magic crystal, I will not embarrass you, but I hope that you can sign an exclusive agency agreement with the Cooper Chamber of Commerce, and hand over all the magic crystals you sold in the direction of Wellington to our Cooper Chamber of Commerce to sell." You're not going to give this little face to your uncle, are you?"
This seems to be a much more "normal" business agreement than just now, but it makes Miranda even more embarrassed, the whole bright continent knows that Philip's Ross family and Cooper family belong to two different camps, if he sells the magic crystal to the Cooper family, it will be for Philip to betray the Ross family, if he doesn't agree, he is sorry for his uncle's kindness when he was a child.
Robin's request puts Miranda in a dilemma.
