Chapter 99
Chapter 99 Chamber of Commerce
The treaty was drafted soon, Henry and the open lord Pilguelen signed each other’s names on it. After signing the sign, Kelburn showed a serious smile on his face. He said to Henry: “I hope we can cooperate on a larger scale against evil in the future and suppress the arrogance of the evil forces on the entire West Coast.”
Henry shook his head and smiled. “Master, you know that I am a druid on the path of neutrality. I can only guarantee that evil will not cross the limits it should have, and that I cannot kill them all.”
“That’s enough, Kelben, don’t make it too difficult for Earl Henry.” Laila persuaded her husband.
Kelben sighed. “Well, everyone has their own position. We can’t force others to agree with their own views, because that is the logic of the devil.”
Henry bowed apologetically. “Thank you for your understanding. Please rest assured. I am in full agreement with you in combating undead, demons, demons and lycanthropes. Thank you again for your trust and support. If nothing happens, I plan to return immediately. Territory. It took a long time to dive underground this time. My relatives and subordinates must be very worried now.”
Pirguelen and Henry shook hands. “Then, on behalf of Deepwater City, I wish you a smooth journey. In addition, Sir Hawke set off to return to Bluewent City a week ago. You must now need a returning ship. Do you need me to contact you?”
Henry thought for a while and rejected Pilguelen’s kindness. “I have a good relationship with President Andrew of the Brown Bear Chamber of Commerce, and plan to take their chamber of commerce ship home. In addition, there is still a transaction between us that is not completed.
“Brown Bear Chamber of Commerce? It’s the fat man who weighed 170 kilograms and always said that he had killed the big brown bear with his own hands when he was young?” asked an invisible lord with a magic mask.
Henry laughed when he heard his description of Andrew. “Yes, it’s him. When I first came to Deep Water City, I bought a lot of goods from his Chamber of Commerce, and I promised to cooperate with him further.”
The lord made a pleasant laugh, and it was obvious that he was a woman. She said to Henry: “I am very pleased to see you and the Chamber of Commerce in Deepwater City have such close trade exchanges. Finally, I wish you a smooth cooperation and earn more gold coins.
The lady Henry made a salute. “Then I will borrow your auspicious words. I will retire today, and I will rush to the Grizzlies Chamber of Commerce.” After speaking, he left the palace in the castle district with Vaughan, Debra and Delina waiting at the door. , A group of people along the street came to the commercial area.
After the raid a few days ago, the place was deserted a lot, and a large number of shops were destroyed and burned. Even after so many days, it did not return to the hustle and bustle of the past. When he came to the door of the Grizzlies Chamber of Commerce, Henry found that the door here had traces of being cut by a sword. You don’t need to ask to know that it must have been attacked by the dark elf.
He pushed open the door and walked in. At a glance, he saw Andrew with a bandage on his head. The fat man was sitting on a chair with a sad face. Henry walked over and patted him on the shoulder. “Andrew, what’s the matter with you? You were red when I came to see you last time.”
The fat man raised his head and saw Henry stood up immediately, showing a smile that was uglier than crying. “Earl, I’m so sorry, I think the Brown Bear Chamber of Commerce may be closed down. These **** dark elves have blown up my warehouse and all the stock in it has been destroyed. Now I am facing a serious debt crisis, if not In the event of an accident, this place will soon be sold to repay the debt.”
Henry’s eyes lit up when he heard it, and he thought it was a good opportunity. Anyone who can establish a chamber of commerce in Deep Water City has its own channels. If you spend some money to hold this chamber of commerce in your hands now, then both intelligence activities and trade exchanges will be covered with a protective umbrella. After he made up his mind, he said to Andrew: “I can give you an investment if you need it, but I want the ownership of the Chamber of Commerce. But on the surface you are still the chairman of the Brown Bear Chamber of Commerce, and you can take the net profit of the Chamber of Commerce. Twenty percent.”
The fat guy first heard the smile on his face when he heard the investment, and when he asked for the ownership of the Chamber of Commerce later, he lowered his head and frowned. After spending so many years in the Deep Water City area, he has long understood that there is no free lunch in the world. For the Chamber of Commerce that he has worked so hard to establish for decades, there is a feeling that he can’t let go of.
If Henry only got half of the shares, he would immediately agree to it without hesitation. But now it’s the issue of the ownership of the entire chamber of commerce. Andrew thought about it for a long time, and finally sighed. “You are really a shrewd businessman. Well, I agree to your request. But it takes at least 400,000 gold coins to save the Brown Bear Chamber of Commerce. I don’t know if you can get so much money at once.”
Henry was overjoyed when he saw that the fat man agreed. He said to the sad Andrew: “I think it should be okay. If there are not enough gold coins, I can use a part of the gems to pay. And don’t be so sad, rest assured that I will not interfere with you on a large scale. The management of the Chamber of Commerce.”
Andrew looked a lot better when he heard Henry’s promise, and he shook the fat on his body. “Then let’s sign a contract. After the funds arrive, I will settle the debts with other merchants as soon as possible. After about three days, the chamber of commerce will be operational again.”
Henry immediately took out about three hundred thousand gold coins and a few bags of gems from the dimensional bag. “These things will be handed over to you to pay off the debt first, and the rest will be used to maintain the daily expenses of the Chamber of Commerce.”
“Please wait a moment, I will draft a contract now.” As he said, Andrew quickly found two pieces of parchment under his desk and wrote the terms with a quill pen.
A few minutes later, he wrote two contracts and checked them carefully before handing them to Henry. “Count, please read the terms carefully. If there is no problem, please sign it. From now on, you will be the owner of the Brown Bear Chamber of Commerce.” After speaking, he sighed again, his eyes revealing a little frustration.
Henry read the terms carefully and found that the above was very detailed, and he could not find a trace of loopholes. He turned around and looked at the fat man who was a little lost in surprise. “Andrew, you won’t be a **** devil, you can actually write the treaty to this level.”
Fatty laughed when he heard this, he patted his chest hard. “Don’t look at me like this. I also studied at Candleburg for a while. The scholars who gave me the class praised me exactly the same as you. I still miss that time. If I hadn’t learned this knowledge, it would be impossible for the Brown Bear Chamber of Commerce. Developed to such a scale.”
Henry looked at Andrew carefully and thought that the fat man’s experience in his youth must be very exciting. Otherwise, you can’t have such meticulous thinking and keen insight. After signing the treaty, he handed a copy of it to the fat man. “From now on, the Chamber of Commerce will leave it to you to take care of it. All you need to do is to get a loan. If there are other things in the future, I will send someone to contact you quietly. I don’t want anyone to know that the boss behind this Chamber of Commerce is Do I understand?”
The fat man nodded. “Please rest assured, I will continue to operate it as my own chamber of commerce. After all, there are still 20% of the profits that belong to me.”
“Okay, that’s it for the Chamber of Commerce. Now I want to ask if you have any ships that can go to sea?”
Andrew shook his head bitterly. “If you come back a few days earlier, there are still two ships, but they have been taken to repay the debt the day before yesterday. Now the Chamber of Commerce does not have a ship. If you are not in a hurry, you can wait for two weeks. I will repurchase several merchant ships at that time. .”
“I can’t wait any longer, can you help me get a ship? It really doesn’t work. We can take the merchant ship to Baldur’s Gate.” Henry frowned and asked.
Andrew lowered his head to consider for a while, then raised his head to look at him seriously. “If you are really in a hurry, you can try to contact the underground forces in the dock area. But I need to warn you that they are very dangerous It is very likely to make some bad behaviors on the way, especially you Also brought two ladies.”
“Hehe, bad behavior! If they really dare, I don’t mind letting them taste the torture of hell.” Dai Lina snorted and took off her hood. As Tifflin’s appearance reminds people of bad things, Henry usually asks her to cover herself tightly.
The fat man was taken aback by Tieflin’s appearance, and the fat all over his body shivered severely. “Oh my goodness! You actually brought a half-devil! Well, I think what I should worry about are those **** robbers and gangsters. I will contact you when I pack these gold coins, but their ferry has always been. It’s very expensive. You have to be mentally prepared.”
Henry glanced at Dai Lina and motioned for her to put on her hood. “No problem, but you better remind them. The price should not exceed my bottom line, otherwise I can’t guarantee what these people will do.” The orc warrior opened his mouth after hearing this sentence. After laughing, he reached out his hand and touched his huge sword and throwing axe.
Andrew suddenly began to sympathize with these robbers and villains. With their style of behavior, he would surely annoy Henry and the others on the road. At that time, a powerful half-orc warrior, coupled with a Tieflin with **** blood, would basically have no chance of survival for ordinary bandits. Moreover, the earl is also a well-known hero. It is said that he has killed more than ten thousand lycanthropes, hobgoblins, ogres and trolls.
