Chapter 35: Business Deal #2

After Alein introduced Elizabeth as her personal butler as well as the one who managed the assets of Federic House, I explained my business proposal to Elizabeth. 

I offered to partner up with the Federic House for selling the high-quality spices, salt, and even sugar around the continent, but for now, we sold it around the kingdom as the Federic House didn't have enough prestige to cover the continents. I wanted to build up a distributor that sold the goods in every city and town within the kingdom

[In short, you want to use the Federic house name and connection to sell the high-quality goods while we protect your identity as the one who provides the goods?]

[Yes!, Anyway I will show the goods here, and you can check it for yourself]

[Please~]

After Elizabeth gave me her approval, I took three brown big cloth bags that contained spices, Salt, and Sugar. 

Elizabeth made a surprised face after seeing the goods that suddenly came out of nowhere. For some reason, Elizabeth glanced in Marie's direction to confirm something as she got her affirmation silently from Marie with eye contact.

'It seems she is confirming my skill. Anyway, the strong impression I gave them will be made my position higher in this deal, as I got more benefit and trust from Federic house.

[So this is the secret of that night dinner, as expected, you are rea~lly not an ordinary individual~ fufufu~ interesting~]

In contrast with Elizabeth who checking the goods seriously, Alein had a light expression and playfully teased me with a hint of curiosity as she licked the sugar that she just pinched from the bag with her finger sexily.

Before long, after seemingly finished checking the goods, Elizabeth looking at me seriously as she fixed her glasses in an elegant manner

[There is no mistake these are very high-quality goods, there are no impurities mixed within the goods and 'This One' can feel it, that these goods will fetch to unbelievable sum that even will make the Federic House status rise in this kingdom-no in this continent to an incredible degree!]

I looked at Elizabeth strangely, 

'shouldn't she bluff and said [the goods are so-so] and some BullShit while trying her best to rake more profit?'

[There is no point for 'This One' lying to you, it's the first time 'This One' saw this quality of spices, salt, and sugar within my long life experiences. not even the Southern Continent that known of its spices have something like this, this one really curious, where did you get these goods from?]

After seeing her inquiring gaze, I just gave ambiguous smile at her before looking at Alein. She held her chin charmingly while seemingly thinking about something after hearing Elizabeth's statement.

She looked at the goods absentmindedly for a while before staring at me with a charming smile plastered on her alluring beautiful face. 

Looking at Alein that about to open her sexy lips to speak something, I hurriedly interjected her by stating out my condition first!

[70:30, And I will supply the goods monthly to the Federic's House, may I?]

Alein gasped in surprise after seeing me speaking first She stared at me interestingly as she squinted her bewitching eyes.

'I don't know why I've interjected her, but somehow, my feeling told me that I will lose my judgment if I let her speaking first. You guys already know that I'm really weak at beauties, especially to mature beauties like her! '

Before long, Alein smiled after seeing my firmed expression

[Fufufu~ it seems the rumor about you is false, or maybe you have grown, and become more mature since the first time we met?~ Anyway, aren't you a greedy one? 70% of clean profit is too much, right? Elizabeth what do you think?]

Elizabeth looked at me closely as she fixed her glasses after hearing Alein question. She looked at the goods once again before staring at me seriously and asked

[Can you guaranteed the supplied amounts monthly and always have stable supplied of the same quality goods like this one?]

[Lady Elizabeth doesn't have to worry, I will take care of it as I have my own means. To what kind of mean is that, of course, it's a trade's secret, so I couldn't tell you how can I get the goods, but the important thing is, I will assure you that it's not something illegal, and I get the goods by fair mean~]

[Then.. how about 55:45 we are the 45% one, we will incorporate all the business operation cost and used Federic house connection to make some deals with the nobles and royal family, you just have to sit and supply the goods as you can get 55% of the clean profit. of course, we will protect your identity as the supplier as stated within your previous offer]

I was pondering about it for a while as I looking at the goods in some brown bags in front of me. I closed my eyes and checked the Online Shopping skill in my status as my mind suddenly worked at a fast pace, After a few moments, I opened my eyes slowly and smirked at Elizabeth cunningly

[I have some conditions... if Federic House could agree with my conditions I will accept the deal immediately~]

[Let 'This One' listen to your conditions first, please state it~]

[Hohoho~ it's not something ridiculous or anything, it's just I want to have my voice in this company that we'll build and could reject the company development proposal that I deemed unsuitable with the long vision that I have in the future.

.

second, I wanted my 55% shares will not change forever.

.

Third, if I have a new business proposal that is deemed as profitable to both parties, the Federic House will cover all the business operations while I have the responsibility of supplying the goods. the future supplied goods will be bought from me at standard market price, don't worry I can give some discount from time to time if something happens with the market~ that's all, If the Federic House agreed with this condition, we will make the contract and finish the deal immediately today~]

This time both Elizabeth and Alein's expressions became serious, they looked at me inquiringly, not only them even the 3 combat maids looking at me with somewhat intriguing expressions. 

'hohoho~ even if you are a milf, money is money, its two different things after all~

After thinking for a while, Elizabeth gave Alein a nod. After seeing Elizabeth affirmation, Alein looking at me with a charming smile

[I don't know what is your plan in the future, but if that's something that brings benefit to Federic House, of course, I will support you fully~ fufufu~]

Alein sticking out her right hand towards me as she squinted her eyes seductively.

Looking at her beautiful slender soft hand, I hold it politely and bowed my head to kiss it lightly

[For happy cooperation~]

Upon seeing my antics, Alein blushed as her cheeks became red like a tomato. Even the 3 combat maids looking at me amazed and covered their mouths with their hands in embarrassment. For some reason, Elizabeth started smirking like a fox after seeing this scene.

'What? Isn't this noble etiquette? why are you guys so flustered?'

Alein hurriedly take her hand off from me and covered her mouth with a fan while still has blushing cheeks

[Q-quite daring aren't you.... more importantly, happy cooperation~]

I saw Elizabeth came closer towards us and look at me with a smiling face

[It seems we already reach the agreements, so how about Mr. Alex and companion to stay over in this Lady Alein manor for today? we will hold a private party tonight to celebrate the business cooperation between Mr. Alex and Federic House~]

All of a sudden, Elizabeth offered her invitation to me with a somewhat beautiful smile that has a hint of playfulness in it. 

'I don't think they would any harm in it so... anyway, it isn't a bad proposal to know each other better.'

After thinking for a while, I looked at Chali beside me who always smiling during the business talk before asking her opinion

[What do you think Chali? are you interest in sleep-over in this place for today?]

[There is no harm in it, isn't it? so why not?~]

Chali smiled and answered me steadily. somehow she acted like a mature lady since we came to this manor.

'It seems she wanted to improve my image as her master, what a charming mature woman~'

After moved by her consideration, I embraced her thin waist to lean her body closer towards me. She blushed after seeing my action and somewhat stared at me with a feverish expression.

After seeing her alluring expression, I patted her waist gently as a signal that we're still in someone's house now. After appeased Chali for a while, I looked at Elizabeth before moved my gaze at Alein

[Okay, I gratefully take the Federic House offer. I'll attend the private party and stay over for tonight with pleasure~]

Alein smiled stiffly before looking towards her 3 combat maids.

[Inform the other maids, we have a small private party for Mr. Alex here tonight!]

[[As the young lady wish~]]

'It seems my intimate action with Chali is a little too much after all~'

After seeing the 3 maids left, Alein normalize her expression once again before looking at me hesitatingly

[You can call me Alex, its kinda weird to hear someone called me that politely, and now we are a business partner, I hope we could become closer as it makes the future business smoother after all hoho~]

[Fufufu~! okay then, you can call me Al from now on too~]

[Isn't it bad if I call a noble with her nickname]

[It's okay, It's the first time I made friends outside the nobles circles after all, I want you to call me Al, or... don't you want to be friends with me?]

[stop with that pitiful acting of yours... I will call you Al from now on..]

[fufufu~]

[Sorry to disturb the young lady and Mr... Mr. Alex is that okay if 'This One' uses these goods as an ingredient for tonight's party?]

'So this elf blonde beauty didn't leave yet after all'

[Of course! please help yourself~ I will give it as a gift for the Federic house to celebrate our first business deal!]

[Thank you for your generosity, Excuse me then~]

Elizabeth smiled at Alein and me after getting my approval and then left. for some reason, her smile made me restless and gave me some chill.

'This woman! did he plan to do something? but I can't feel any hint of maliciousness in it, whatever...'

After throwing this unfounded worry to the back of my head, I continued hanging out with Chali and Al in this room.

After a while, Al asked both of us to walk and sightseeing the manor together as she acted as the guide.

We have some harmonious small talk along the way, mostly about my adventure or Chali's adventure experiences before she fell to slavery. somehow we avoid the heavy topic and just shared some fun or amusing experience in this chit-chat.

After a while, some maids informed Al that the party preparation already finished. After hearing the maid's message, I looked at the sky and realized it's already almost night.

The maids brought us toward some hall that was already decorated. Upon entering the hall, I saw a lot of food already arranged like a buffet on the table. 

All of a sudden, Alein started clapping to get some attention before tolling the maid and some manor staff to leave the hall.

Before long, there were only the 3 combat maids, Elizabeth, Al, Chali, and me inside this hall.

While I was confused and looking around the deserted hall, all of a sudden, Al approached me with a charming smile as she had 2 glasses of wine in each of her hands before offered one glass of wine in her hand to me. 

Looking at her action, I kind of understand what her intention was, so I took the glass without hesitation. even though I didn't like wine too much, it didn't mean I against something with an alcoholic drink. more importantly, on this occasion, it's kind of rude if I rejected her offer after all~

After confirming that I took the glass in her hand, she lifted up her own glass before giving her speech

[I am sorry that is only us even tho it's should be a party, but since you request us to hide your identity as the supplier, it'll be better if a few people know about this deal]

She explained and started clinking the glass to mine to symbolize our cooperation. I smiled and drink the wine in one gulp as approval.

As we started drinking the wine, after a while, Elizabeth brought me the contract for our business. I checked the contract carefully and after confirming that there is no problem with it, I signed it before gave it back to her. after getting the contract Elizabeth gave it to Al before She took something like a seal and stamped it to the contract.

After formally confirmed our deal once again, Al ask one of the combat maids to fill the wine in our glass and gave me a toast

[Once again, to happy cooperation~]

[to happy cooperation~]

Finally, The somewhat deserted party officially started!
