Chapter 360: Single-handedly

After reaching a deal, Han Fei left the Juhai Trading House, and instead of staying in the city, he returned to the Snow Gull. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The value of the goods loaded on the Snow Gull was far higher than Han Fei had imagined, and I am afraid that when Terina prepared for him, she did not expect that the value of these goods had risen to an extremely high price at Pearl Harbor, especially since the value of the Stellar Mithril had increased tenfold compared to a few years ago.
This is not without reason, in addition to the gradual severance of the supply of goods, the demand for high-grade weapons caused by the territorial war that broke out between the kingdoms of the Fish-Men and Shark-Men in the Sea Clan has also pushed up the price, so the total price of the goods on this ship exceeds six million gold coins, which is also an unexpected windfall for Han Fei.
Wealth is moving, the Sea Clan is not an angelic saint without distractions, although the Juhai Merchant House is one of the largest trading houses in Pearl Harbor, Han Fei can't help but prevent them from being red and black.
The first thing he did when he returned to the ship was to put the Star Mithril and spices that had been used as ballast items into the Ring of Gifts, as for the wines, which were too large to be stored, but they were the least valuable.
There was nothing to do all night, and when it was close to noon the next day, the person in charge of checking the goods from Juhai Commercial Bank came, and also brought three carts of bluefin shark bone beads!
This was completely unexpected by Han Fei, but it also showed the strength of Juhai Commercial Bank.
"Distinguished guests, these three carts of bluefin shark bone beads were mobilized by our trading house from various warehouses and other merchants, and they were all given to you free of charge!" The steward of the trading house who brought the goods was a handsome young man of the Sea Clan, and he respectfully said to Han Fei: "There are about three thousand in one cart, which is basically the entire inventory of the entire Pearl Pavilion!"
One car is 3,000, and three cars are 9,000, this number is enough for Han Fei's plan for several years, he nodded with great satisfaction and said, "Okay! Thank you for your help, let's inspect the goods first!"
Han Fei took the young steward to the warehouse, first counted the wines on the list, and finally took the Stellar Mithril and spices out of the Ring of Gifts and counted them, and then took them back when he was done.
"Well, it's all in line with the list!" The young Sea Clan steward had a respectful smile on his face, but his gaze wandered a little, but it fell on the Gift Ring worn by Han Fei: "Your Excellency is really careful! But please rest assured, there is no problem with the safety of this dock, and there will definitely be no bandits!"
"Be careful, there's no big mistake!" Han Fei smiled faintly and said, "Since your bank sent the bluefin shark bone beads in advance, my ship's warehouse capacity is limited, why don't you pull these wines back first, I can free up the warehouse to load, and I will bring the rest of the things to your trading house in the evening!"
Han Fei didn't expect the other party to send so many bluefin shark bone beads, since the other party was so polite, he couldn't be stingy, anyway, it didn't matter if this batch of goods cellared wine was not the focus on giving it to the other party first, it could be regarded as a move to repay the favor!
"This couldn't be better, I'll give you a receipt, please rest assured, the reputation of our firm is the best in the entire Blue Whale Island!" said the young steward with a smile: "The things you want and the money will definitely be ready by night, and it will not delay your time!"
He immediately made a contract receipt for Han Fei, and under Lu Man's command, the sailors moved boxes of fine wine out of the warehouse, while the people from the trading house also transported boxes of bluefin shark bone beads onto the ship, and the two sides quickly completed the transaction.
In a harmonious atmosphere, the people of Juhai Commercial Bank left with fine wine, and everything went very smoothly.
"Rogge, is there any problem?" Han Fei, who returned to the boat, saw that the fat man's expression was a little strange, and he couldn't help but ask.
Rogge's expression was a little solemn, and he was not happy to successfully complete the first transaction, he shook his head and said: "My lord, maybe I'm too careful, I feel that this transaction is really too smooth, and the people of Juhai Trading House are too polite to us!"
"Juhai Trading House is a big trading house, I used to be just a small merchant and I was not qualified to negotiate with them, so I didn't know much about their situation, I only knew that most of the shareholders behind them were members of the royal family. It stands to reason that with their strength, they don't need to be so polite to us, even if this business is very big, because we are Terrans!"
When things go wrong, there must be demons, and in many cases, it is not a good thing to go too smoothly, there may be a turbulent undercurrent lurking under the calm surface, this truth Han Fei fully understands, and this is the territory of the Sea Clan.
"You make a lot of sense!" Han Fei thought for a while and nodded and said, "That's it, I'll leave the ship and go to the city in the evening, and you can leave as soon as it gets dark, and go back as fast as possible!"
This was said to Rogge, but also to Lu Man next to him: "It's too eye-catching during the day, if the other party really has bad intentions, then their attention will only be on me, as long as I'm not on the boat, it shouldn't be a problem for you to get out!"
"It's the worst-case scenario, but we have to guard against it!"
"My lord, how can this be done!" said Lu Man and Rog in surprise.
"This is the best choice!" Han Fei smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Don't you believe in my strength? I am not involved alone, and it is easiest to leave as much as you want, and even if you successfully complete this business, you have to leave first, because I am going to travel around the island for a while, and by the way, I am looking for two other items." ”
"My lord, the power of the Juhai Merchant Bank is extremely powerful, if they really want to deal with you, it will be too dangerous, why don't we leave now!" Rogge also said anxiously.
"Isn't it still undecided, I don't want to miss this business..."Han Fei patted him on the shoulder and said, "Rogge, I think you might as well go to my territory, I need a lot of talents there, you will definitely be able to make a difference, and I will definitely not treat you badly!"
"Thank you, Lord for your kindness!" Rogge hurriedly saluted and said, "I am willing to serve you!"
Rogge is undoubtedly a smart and adventurous person, and Han Fei's invitation is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for him, and of course he must take advantage of it.
"That's okay, when it gets dark, you leave immediately, and you definitely don't look back!" Han Fei said solemnly: "Lu Man, you take the boat back to Misty Island first, don't worry about me, I will be back in three months at most!"
"Yes, my lord!" Lu Man saw that Han Fei had made up his mind and no longer persuaded him, he also knew that he and the others would not be of much help here at all, but would become a burden.
At last, it was getting dark, and the setting sun shone on Pearl Harbor, and the sails in the distance were dotted with ships returning to their sails.
Han Fei jumped off the deck of the Snow Gull and stood firmly on the dock.
As soon as his feet hit the ground, his keen sense immediately felt that several eyes fell on him, and his heart suddenly sank.
The bustling docks were filled with sailors, dock workers, and escorts, and it was difficult to tell where the gaze was coming from, and when Han Fei scanned the surroundings, the feeling of being watched immediately disappeared without a trace.
Could it be that the Juhai Firm really had bad intentions, or was it targeted by other forces? Han Fei quietly turned around and waved his hand at Lu Man, who was standing at the bow of the Snow Gull, and the other party nodded understandingly.
Bidding farewell to Lu Man, Han Fei quickly left the docks, and then boarded a rental carriage and headed for the city, and after a maximum of half an hour, the Snow Gull would quietly leave Pearl Harbor under the cover of night and embark on its return journey.
Regardless of whether Juhai Merchant House harbored malicious intent or not, Han Fei was ready to fulfill the rest of the deal, because he had nothing to fear!
The streets of Pearl Harbor City were as noisy and lively as yesterday, and after getting out of the carriage, Han Fei wandered the streets unhurriedly, enjoying a sumptuous dinner at a restaurant before coming to the Black Goblin Bar, and he didn't leave for Juhai Comptoir until the appointed time was almost up.
At the door of the trading house, Han Fei ran into the broker old cat, and the other party was relieved to see him appear on time, nodded and sneered: "My lord, the steward is waiting for you!"
"Aren't I here?" Han Fei smiled slightly and followed the other party into the trading house.
The old steward and the young steward who came to deliver the goods during the day were waiting for him, and after meeting, he said a few polite words, and the old steward said: "Dear guest, you want more things, and it is very troublesome to trade here, why don't we go directly to the warehouse to deliver, you can inspect and pick up the goods on the spot, do you think it's okay?"
"Of course there is no problem!" Han Fei nodded and smiled, "It is also my honor to be able to visit your bank's warehouse. ”
The two stewards smiled and immediately took Han Fei to the warehouse of the trading house for delivery.
The warehouse of the Juhai Trading House was set up underground, and through a well-guarded passage, the door of the warehouse slowly opened, and the mountains of goods inside were immediately presented in front of Han Fei's eyes.
As soon as he stepped into the warehouse, Han Fei immediately felt an invisible force enveloping him, obviously there was a forbidden magic circle set up here, this was not a strange thing, as the core treasury of a large trading house, it would be strange if there was not enough precautionary wording.
In this huge storeroom, there were also a dozen or so fully armed whale warriors, who had examined the proof provided by the old steward before opening another heavy metal fence inside.
"This is just one of the warehouses of our trading house, and it's not the biggest!" said the young steward proudly, "All the goods you want are over there, please follow me!"
Han Fei followed him into the fence, only to see that in a clearing in front of him, there were more than a dozen large and small wooden boxes neatly arranged, obviously the goods he ordered, piled together like a small mountain.
Boom!~ A dull thud suddenly sounded, it was the sound of the iron door of the warehouse.
Han Fei's gaze froze, and he immediately looked back, only to see the heavy iron door slowly closing behind him!
