Chapter 45 Huang Qiangwei
While talking to a group of girls, Brand accidentally learned a lot of news.
Many are just complaints from girls about the subtle changes in their family.
In the past, Brand would not have noticed anything.
However, combined with what Mr. Holland told him about the pioneering war in two years' time, Brand could easily realize that it was preparation for war.
Indeed, as Mr. Holland said, the nobles of the empire are working hard to promote the pioneering war two years later.
At this time, Catherine suddenly squeezed to Brand's side, then leaned into Brand's ear and whispered something.
After hearing what Catherine said clearly, Brand looked a little strange.
Then, he apologized to the ladies in front of him: "I have to excuse myself for a moment, and I will continue later."
Not long ago, Catherine chose Brand for Brand in the dining area. During the meal, someone told Catherine that his lady had information about the knight's secret medicine and wanted to discuss it in detail with the Holland family.
Because it involved the knight's secret medicine, only Brand came to today's banquet. Catherine instantly realized that Brand needed to make the decision on this matter, so she immediately informed Brand of what happened.
This is the reason why Brand said goodbye to all the ladies.
“Are those two friends who brought the news about the knight’s secret medicine?”
“Yes, young master.”
After receiving confirmation from Catherine, Brand With a faint smile on his face, he leaned towards the two people's position.
Looking at a man and a woman not far in front of him, both of them were dressed exquisitely. The man stood half a step back, looking like an attendant.
What makes Brand a little puzzled is that this man seems to have a strange hostility towards him.
Although Brand is often hostile to various men, jealousy accounts for the vast majority.
The hostile look of the man in front of him made Brand feel a bit like the father of those girls.
It’s not jealousy, it’s just plain unhappiness.
This made Brand somewhat incomprehensible.
Seeing Brand approaching, the woman in front of her smiled and performed an exotic etiquette that Brand had never seen before.
Brand was a little surprised by this.
However, he quickly returned the standard aristocratic gift of the Kaya Empire.
After that, Brand smiled and said: "Beautiful lady, I am Brand Holland, what should I call you?"
The woman's cheeks turned red when Brand called her "beautiful lady."
After inviting Brand to come and sit down, she smiled and said:
"I am Grace Miller. Mr. Brand can just call me Grace. I take the liberty of interrupting. Please don’t be offended, Mr. Brand.”
Of course there will be no offence. Brand is very curious about the different meeting etiquette of this lady named Grace from the Kaya Empire:
"Ms. Grace, you are not a native of the Kaya Empire, right?"
Grace smiled slightly and nodded.
Then, she took out a business card and handed it to Brand:
"I am a businessman from the Huangqiangwei Chamber of Commerce. This time I came to the Kaya Empire mainly because I wanted to work here. Looking for business opportunities, buying goods, and also bringing some goods for sale."
"A traveling merchant? I have always been very envious of you for being able to appreciate the beautiful scenery in various regions."
While giving a simple compliment, Brand also started to look at the business card in his hand:
"The Yellow Rose Chamber of Commerce in the Kingdom of Palencia mainly deals in knight equipment, consumables and training supplies."
Looking at the name and introduction of the chamber of commerce on the business card, Brand frowned slightly.
He is not very clear about the various foreign forces, although Brand, the commercial kingdom of Palencia, has heard about it.
But if Brand remembers correctly, Palencia seems to be due east of the Human Alliance, that is, due south of the Kaya Empire, separated by at least three territories as large as the Kaya Empire. Are you coming all this way to look for business opportunities?
Brand doesn’t quite believe it.
Seemingly aware of Brand’s doubts, the woman explained to Brand:
“Our Huangqiangwei Chamber of Commerce has offices in many countries on the mainland, the closest to the Kaya Empire. One of the stations is in the Lana Kingdom in the south, which is where we came from this time."
Hearing this, Brand was a little curious and said:
"What do you want. Open a new station in the Kaya Empire? ”
"That's not necessarily true!"
The woman smiled and said:
"In fact, the area where the Kaya Empire is located is quite remote, and the transportation cost is relatively high. Setting up a station here The price/performance ratio is very low, and most people within the Chamber of Commerce are opposed to it.
So the main task of my team this time is to evaluate the commercial value of the Kaya Empire, and the impact of the elemental tide on the northeastern part of the Farnes continent in two years. Concrete impacts along the coast. ”
Good guys!
As soon as these words came out, Brand almost knew what this woman and the Huang Qiangwei Chamber of Commerce were here for.
This should be here to see if the Kaya Empire will take advantage of this elemental tide to push the border north to the Endless Sea.
If so, let’s make a wave of war fortune, and at the same time prepare for the export of elf specialties in the future, right?
As expected of a multinational businessman, Brand only knew about it in a few days.
People have come all the way here to visit!
But he knew he knew it, but Brand still didn't show it.
Opening up wars and elf trade routes is something in the future.
Brand is now only interested in the news about the knight’s secret medicine.
“The elemental tide is a little too far away from us, let’s talk about our Huang Qiangwei products.”
Although Brand doesn’t want to talk about the elemental tide, Grace He didn't show any special reaction.
Then, she began to describe the business scope of the Huangqiangwei Chamber of Commerce as Brand wanted:
"Mr. Brand, our Huangqiangwei Chamber of Commerce serves various knight families in the mainland, and is famous for its The Holander family is one of our target customers. Whether it is weapons, armor, various training facilities, or medicinal materials for recovering from fatigue, our Huangqiangwei Chamber of Commerce sells them."
Brand suddenly asked. Said:
“Is the Knight’s Secret Medicine also one of your products?”
“We generally do not sell the Knight’s Secret Medicine to the outside world, and usually only use it as gifts. Even if a big customer buys it from us, Only a small amount will be sold ”
Then, with a change of tone, Grace began to talk about the advantages of their chamber of commerce:
"Actually, compared to the knight's secret medicine, our Huangqiangwei Chamber of Commerce's rich reserves of medicinal materials are more favored by customers. , if the Holander family needs it, the Huangqiangwei Chamber of Commerce can purchase the relevant medicinal materials for making the secret medicine for you.
After all, if something like the knight's secret medicine is to be used in large quantities, it is better to produce it yourself. You can rest assured, right?”
“I understand what you mean.”
Brand nodded, then took out a pen and paper from the space necklace and began to write several words on it. Medicinal material name and year requirements.
After writing it, Brand handed it to Grace, and then asked:
"Can you find the source of these medicinal materials?"
What Brand wrote was Some of the medicinal ingredients in the Holland family's knight's secret medicine.
——This is testing the medicinal materials reserves of Huangqiangwei Chamber of Commerce.
Although I would like to write more, it is a pity that Brand can only remember so much.
Grace took the "list" handed over by Brand and looked at it carefully.
Soon, she said: "Mr. Brand, if it is just these medicinal materials on the list, we can send the first batch within half a month, but we don't know that the Holland family needs it. How much? ”
Good question! I don't know either.
Immediately afterwards, Brand smiled slightly and said:
“Perhaps we should ask Mr. Holland, the head of the Holland family, I don’t know about Ms. Grace. Do you have any other schedules tomorrow? Will I be lucky enough to invite you to visit Hollandburg to meet the landlords? ”
Grace smiled and said: "That's my honor!"
