When Estelle returned to the parlor, the two seemed to have finished talking.

"Estelle, you can follow Lord Sean in the future, because Lord Sean doesn't have much time to take care of you, so you will live in another house for the time being, how about it?"

Satuk turned his head to look at Estelle, who was stunned.

"Father, I ......"

Estelle gritted her teeth, trying to say something more.

"There are servants there, nothing will change in your quality of life, you don't need to worry."

Satuk interrupted Estelle and said without a hint of emotion.

"Remember to listen to Lord Sean, he is your only support, if you can get married in the future, it will be the best reward for the Scarlett family."

Istelle looked at her father in disbelief, and although she had already guessed that this might be the outcome, she still couldn't accept it when it happened.

"Are you going to kick me away......"

Estelle looked at Satuk with some grievances, not knowing what to do for a moment.

"How so?" Satuk's voice became soft, "You have to remember that you will always be a member of the Scarlett family, and the glorious blood of the Scarlet family flows in your body, as long as you don't forget the family, then the family will never forget you." ”

"Your Excellency Sean is a noble person of our Scarlett family, you are lucky to have you accompany him, it won't be long before Your Excellency Sean can be promoted to the rank of apprentice, and it is not impossible for you to prolong your life or stay young forever."

"You're so old, but don't be petty, anyway, I've raised you for so many years, what's missing from you? Can't you think about me and my family? ”

"Besides, I'm not hurting you, but for your good, Your Excellency Sean will definitely not snub you, aren't you happy to spend your life like this? Without material support, where can you enjoy this aristocratic life? ”

Satuk's barrage of words directly silenced Estelle, and she stared at her father and Sean in silence, looking dejected.

"Don't worry, I don't have that much effort to care about you, you can do whatever you want, just don't make some trouble."

Sean had a smile on his face and looked happy.

Don't get me wrong, the reason why he's happy isn't because of Estelle, it's because in the negotiation just now, Sean finally got what he wanted.

Agreeing to Satuk's request for cooperation means that he will inevitably share some of the profits, and to a certain extent, he will be subject to others.

But what he gained from Satuk was more than enough to make up for his losses, and even far more than for Sean.

Prior to this, although he exposed the existence of combination potions, in fact, there were only two parts, combination potions (5) and combination potions (10), and although the profits were much higher than those of other types of potions, they were still limited.

As for the higher-level combination potion (20), it was not that he could not refine it, but he was worried about causing trouble to himself.

In any case, he is only an apprentice-level mage, no matter how much money he makes, when he really encounters an apprentice-level opponent, even if the opponent is the kind that has just been promoted, Sean's ending will only be a fiasco.

The benefits that can be involved in the combination potion (20) are too many for the apprentice-level professional to take the initiative to attack him.

At that time, not to mention that the money is not earned, even his life may be threatened.

Now that Sean has tied himself to Satuk, he doesn't have to worry about this, as the top-ranked nobleman in Hogg City, Satuk can support more than a palm.

With Satuk's support, Sean will not only make no less, but more than before.

In addition, even after his staff is made, there are some enhancement steps that require the help of the noble forces to achieve it, and the ruthless Satuk seems to him to be a good partner to work with......

Of course, Satuk himself made a lot of money, and he didn't have to pay much to get the refuge of a future apprentice-level alchemist.

At the same time, Satuk can also use monopoly methods to greatly increase the price of potions, and earn the favor of other professionals, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

The reason why I say this is because in the past, Sean sold combination potions, and they were all sold by several chambers of commerce, so that he could get in touch with more nobles and not attract jealousy.

Now that he had reached an agreement with Satuk, the potions would only be sold to the Scarlett family, because of the partnership with Satuk, even if the other nobles were dissatisfied with it, they could do nothing.

Of course, Sean's agreement with Satuk is not limited to this, there are others: Satuk provides Sian with interest-free loans, assists Sean in finding rare materials, and Sean makes magic items and alchemy props for Satuk for a fee, as well as refining special potions, etc.

In short, it was a mutually beneficial agreement, and both Sean and Satuk were satisfied and thought they had picked up a bargain.

……

"Sir Sean, go slowly, the Scarlett family will always be your strongest backing."

In order to show his attention to Sean, Satuk personally sent him to the gate, and then waved goodbye to Sean.

Sean put a large bag of gold coins in his hand on the carriage that carried him, and turned back to make a mage salute to Satuk to express his gratitude.

This trip was enjoyed by the guests and hosts, which laid the foundation for the future cooperation between the two sides.

Sean also received a loan of 500 gold coins, which temporarily relieved his urgent need.

The production of the staff is a bottomless pit, even if it is a preliminary production plus semi-finished products, and various auxiliary materials cost a lot of money.

The more than 1,000 gold coins that Sean had on hand had already been spent by him, but they were still a little insufficient.

With Satuk's 500 gold coins, Sean can finally start making the staff officially, and he will also get his first staff, a true mage's reliance!

……

Opening the window of the carriage, Sean closed his eyes and enjoyed the cool breeze blowing in from outside, his heart full of indescribable excitement.

Although he was a little anxious to return home, he still had to send Estelle to the accommodation that Satuk had prepared for her and arrange her life at the same time.

In fact, Satuk originally wanted Estelle to live in his house, so as to take the opportunity to strengthen Estelle's relationship with Sean.

But Sean resolutely rejected this solution.

Just kidding, his day is really busy from morning to night, even if he sleeps, a large part of it is replaced by meditation, how can he have spare time to take care of this woman.

However, Estelle had a relationship with him, so he had to ask Satuk to find a place to settle her, so as not to disturb his alchemy.
