Chapter 18 18: Company
The short exchange of words between the two made Xiersen couldn't help marveling that young people from big families are different. This kind of demeanor and calmness does not look like a sixteen-year-old boy at all. At least his nephew, who is incompetent in his family, does not have this ability. .
"Is it only knight equipment?" Sherson asked, changing the subject.
Aslan shook his head and said, "Of course there are other things too. Of course I have my channels, but it's just not convenient for me to see them."
Xie Ersen understood immediately, he already understood what Aslan meant.
Although this Aslan failed in the family struggle, the family still had his own power, and would secretly smuggle goods from Kyoto to him, so he couldn't show it in the open, so he had to do it secretly.
"Master Aslan, how many knight suits like this do you have?"
"There are only fifteen sets left for the time being. A few days ago, a lot of men were equipped." Aslan almost boasted that he didn't make drafts.
Xie Ersen's face became more and more serious, and he had already guessed from the short conversation how big the business Aslan had brought.
Not to mention other things, these fifteen sets of knight suits cost 250 gold coins for one set, and 3750 gold coins for all of them.
The current business scale of the Faith and Fire Merchant Guild is mainly around Billy City. Aslan’s first contact with the Faith and Fire Merchant Guild in his previous life was two years later. Luo area.
All Aslan miscalculated the current financial strength of the Faith and Fire Merchant Guild. They did have the ability to eat this batch of goods, but it would affect their liquidity.
After only a brief hesitation, Xie Ersen took the business very decisively.
"Very good, and I need to buy some medicine and alchemy materials. After all, I am also a magician." Aslan finished speaking, he picked up the quill pen on the table and began to write some magic potions and magic props he had just seen. s material.
Xiersen's face became more serious. After taking the list and looking at it, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It wasn't any expensive medicine or materials.
As for what these things are refined, he can't understand at all.
The formula of each potion and the manufacturing technique of magic props are the secrets of magicians. Unless the magician who refines these things is here, otherwise it is impossible to see what Aslan wants to refine.
"These are not difficult. The Chamber of Commerce will mobilize a group in the next few days. Master Aslan only needs to have fun in Billy City for a few days. There is a hotel opposite the Chamber of Commerce. It is our Faith and Fire Chamber of Commerce. Aslan The young master can take his men there to rest for a few days." Xie Ersen said immediately.
It just happened to save the money for staying in the hotel, and Aslan was very satisfied. After all, he only brought a few silver coins with him when he went out this time, which cost his entire net worth. It would be a problem for a dozen people to eat, let alone staying in a hotel.
"That's just right. It will take a few days for me to get the things over, so let's do this! Three days later, I'll get the things over for trading." Aslan also made a decision.
The two parties then signed a contract. As for the purchase of iron ore and salt, Aslan did not want to bring it up for the time being, and would make a decision after this transaction.
Xiersen sent Aslan out of the Faith and Fire Chamber of Commerce, and Jason followed Aslan's buttocks with a look of reverence, wishing he could follow Aslan from now on. For the first time, he felt the benefits of being a master. Just now in the rest area, he was resting with other knights. The respectful and humble attitude of the shopping guide lady of the Faith and Fire Chamber of Commerce really fascinated him.
After walking out of the Chamber of Commerce, Aslan took people to live in the Flame Girl Hotel directly opposite. It was not called a tavern because it was too large in scale and luxuriously decorated, not much worse than the headquarters building of the Faith and Fire Chamber of Commerce.
"Go back and tell Wilson to stay here tonight." After Aslan finished speaking, he entered the Flame Girl Hotel without looking back.
Upon hearing this, Jason turned around and ran out of the city.
Enter the room arranged by the Faith and Fire Merchant Association, which happens to be a single room in a corner on the fourth floor. The view is very good, and you can see the entire Billy Avenue, and there is an open-air balcony inside.
The surrounding rooms are all twin rooms, which are just for Aslan's guards and can guarantee the safety of Aslan's life.
Details are king.
Shelson is a man who pays attention to details to the extreme.
When the city gate was about to close in the evening, Wilson and his party arrived at the hotel, accompanied by Wilson's family.
As soon as Wilson entered the hotel, he pleaded guilty to Aslan for bringing his younger brother and his family here without his consent.
"Forget it! It's just a trivial matter. Your family is my family." Aslan had just finished dinner and asked someone to prepare a wooden barrel in his room. He was going to take a bath.
Wilson had long been accustomed to this habit.
The lord is obsessed with cleanliness, but the entire town of Melo recognizes that he takes a bath once a day, and his clothes are washed almost every day except for the coat.
Compared to most people in this world who take a shower in a few days or even ten days and a half months, it's astonishing.
In fact, Aslan has begun to promote personal hygiene ideas, especially the military.
Unless it is wartime, he has issued a death order, and soldiers have to take a bath every day.
Therefore, the bathhouse is the most constructed public facility in the town of Melo.
After taking a shower and washing away the tiredness of the day, he was sitting lazily on the sofa.
In fact, it can't be called a sofa, it's just a bigger chair with soft cushions on the top and back, which is really uncomfortable compared to the sofa in the city lord's mansion.
"My lord! I have a proposal from my subordinates. My nephew can establish a chamber of commerce in the outer city to purchase some cheap raw materials for your lord. It will be much cheaper than purchasing in the city."
After Wilson finished speaking, he handed a plan he had prepared to Aslan. He didn't sit down slowly until Aslan waved his hand to signal him to sit down.
This document was the reason he delayed entering town until evening.
Aslan smiled slightly. This was the reason why he valued Wilson the most. No matter what he did, he planned it in advance. If he did things in a clear and orderly manner, his efficiency would naturally be high.
In today's world, the industry is still very backward. It is impossible for the people in the outer city to go to the city to find a job, because it has long been occupied by the people of the city, but why the outer city can still attract so many people? In addition to the transaction, it is the collection of various cheap raw material resources.
Crops are one of them, as well as logging and picking medicines, etc. For example, more than 30 kilometers northeast of Billy City is the Billia Mountains, and there is Yelai Forest in the southwest. Many raw materials can be obtained from these places.
