Chapter 367: The Game Between the Three
After completing the formalities for the ship to dock at the port, Silo walked back with a brisk pace.
"The docking fee of 1000 gold coins a day is really dark."
He took a soft sip after observing that there were no Noxians around.
Although he said that it was expensive, he had a smug look on his face:
"Fortunately, I was witty and asked deliberately, otherwise I would have lost a lot. We are affiliated with the Imperial Explorers Association and have a preferential policy of 300 gold coins. And recently it was the season, and I gave a half-price discount, calculated as long as 350 gold coins a day, I can save 650 gold coins a day, and I can't give me some good wine to reward! ”
Humming all the way, Siloh walked back to the boat.
The head of his family chatted very intimately with a beautiful woman dressed like a nobleman, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
As the number one junior brother of the leader of the Ascended Pirate Regiment, how could he not know that his own leader still knew the noble lady.
But after noticing that Sivir saw him, he did not dare to waste time thinking about it, and trotted forward and laughed:
"Boss, it's done, the docking fee is 350 gold coins/day."
“350...”
Seeing Sivir's brows frowning slightly, Cassiopeia smiled very understandingly:
"Captain Sivir, I will pay this money for you when you leave Hong Kong."
Sivir shook his head and did not agree: "This little money is not a problem, the key is the problem of my subordinates." ”
Silo came just in time, she happened to be not very good at dealing with a woman like Cassiopeia, and it just so happened that Silo could be her good helper.
She looked at Xiluo with an unhappy face, frowned tightly and said:
"I seem to have said before that the devil is in the details."
"Remember, sir!" Xiluo's face was full of excitement, "Earlier, the original price was 1,000 gold coins per day, and it was precisely because the boss taught me to pay attention to details that we got the lowest price of benefits." ”
He excitedly told him about the previous operation, and added at the end:
"When I finished talking and quoted 350 gold coins, I saw that the port warden on the other side had changed his face, and he looked like he wanted to say something. Of course, I won't let him say anything, I said categorically at the time, 350 gold coins, at this price, don't try to bargain! ”
"Boss, although we are a big old man, and we can't describe the complicated eyes and expressions of the port keeper at the end, we know that it must be because I performed perfectly and blinded him!"
Hearing Xiluo's words, although he already had a pre-eucalyptus in his heart, Xavier couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly.
Subconsciously looked backwards and found that Cassiopeia's expression was still the same, but when it seemed to her, a chuckle hung on the corner of her mouth.
Rarely, Sivir couldn't help but have a slight affection for her.
At least such a noble lady will never make people uncomfortable with anything she says or does.
Seeing that Xiluo still wanted to get Se, Xiwei said with a slightly dark face:
"Do you want to know how to describe the Administrator's expression?"
Silo's face was dumbfounded, his keen intuition made him feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what it was.
"Boss, you haven't seen it, how do you know."
"I don't have to see it to know." Sivir said without saltiness, "That is a kind of helpless expression of a nerd. ”
"Boss, why are you still scolding?" Siloh looked unhappy.
"1000 gold coins, 300 gold coins are minus half price, how many gold coins are in the end?" Sivir asked rhetorically.
“1000...”
Xiluo subconsciously stretched out ten fingers and began to calculate seriously.
"Half price first!"
He slowly lowered one hand, leaving only one hand with 5 fingers standing up:
"Subtract 300 again!"
As the thumb, ring finger, and little finger of the erect hand slowly lowered, Xiluo's cold sweat was also pouring out at the same time.
Looking at the only two fingers left, Siloh swallowed and said, with difficulty:
“200!”
"Yes, 200!" Sivir sneered, "You still tell others that you don't bargain, you're really generous." Now it's 350 a day, and we lose 150 gold coins a day, let's say we have to lose at least 4500 gold coins if we go for a month. ”
For this kind of discount, the empire has always calculated according to the best algorithm.
Of course, there will always be people who feel that this discount is insulting to themselves, so they will choose to refuse or re-offer an amount higher than the discounted price.
Among these people, the two Delyus brothers and Yin Zereel are typical, which has always been rumored in the empire, and it is said that after the three of them became generous, they gave twice or three times the money wherever they went.
"4,500 gold!"
Siloh exclaimed, his eyes widening.
Since they left the Shurima Continent, he has worked hard every day, and the final dividend he gets is less than half of this amount.
"So, are you going to write this down or do you want to go again?" Sivir glanced at him.
Feeling the sight of danger, Xiluo was full of excitement:
"I'll go right away!"
He didn't dare to hesitate, and trotted towards the distant management office.
Although this may damage his image, compared to 4,500 gold coins, he said that everything can be discarded.
"Captain Sivir is such an interesting man."
Faced with Cassiopeia's sincere compliment, Sivir shrugged:
"It's not fun, for me, money buys everything. Of course, in the eyes of your nobles, it should be an act that only the lower class would do. ”
In the words, she made no secret of her character.
If you want to participate in Cassiopeia's related tasks, you must make the other person feel that you are a very controllable and understanding person.
Love money and calculating, this is the label she sets for herself, or it is her true character.
"Where, the nobles and commoners of the empire are only distinguished by high and low strength, and there is not much difference in behavior." Cassiopeia said with a reluctant smile.
Her thoughts at the moment were unexpectedly consistent with Sivir's.
To fulfill her mission, she needs to form a certain friendship with Sivir.
She has analyzed the other party, and the image of a simple weak aristocratic lady must not be able to do it.
At the same time, she has to make the other person instinctively feel that she is complex and at the same time easy to understand.
Let the other party realize that her seemingly stupid behavior may bring greater benefits to the other party.
In her opinion, money is definitely the best way to impress Sivir, and the other party must be on her side from the standpoint of behavior.
But it is very difficult to complete this step, and you can only contact slowly and carefully, and then let the other party generate some ideas on their own in a timely manner.
The two of them retracted their chaotic thoughts, glanced at each other, and smiled amicably.
For a while, the two felt that their relationship with each other was much better. (To be continued)
