Traveling businessman.

It is a way of doing business by traveling around and reselling the specialties from one place to another, in order to earn high profits.

Their guests are usually mainly nobles with high status, because only nobles are willing to pay a lot of gold coins for this.

The nobles both love and hate traveling merchants. They naturally love them because of the goods they bring, but they hate them because traveling merchants are greedy and always ask for exorbitant prices.

It would be okay if the goods were worth the price, but there are always some traveling merchants who exaggerate their goods. In the end, when the nobles realized that they had been cheated and wanted to find trouble, they had already fled to unknown places.

Therefore, any noble will be very cautious when dealing with traveling merchants. Only those extremely shrewd traveling merchants can earn gold coins in the hands of noble masters.

Among them was a traveling merchant from the Kazlant Empire, who was respectfully called Leo's 'Big Merchant' by those in the industry.

And this big businessman happened to be doing business in a certain kingdom and heard news about the city that never sleeps.

"The Kingdom of Carlo? The city that never sleeps? It's still the territory of a mere baron."

The more businessman Leo heard the detailed information, his eyes became brighter. Judging from his rich business experience, there was a very considerable profit.

They immediately decided to change their route and took their caravan to the Kingdom of Carlo. Because the Kingdom of Carlo was at war with the Kingdom of Nebonir, they spared a lot of distance. It took them a month to finally reach the capital of Carlo. .

Of course, the news outside was not as well-informed as the local news. As a businessman, Leo was very aware of the importance of news. He did not go to the Arnold territory immediately. Instead, he inquired about the internal news of the Nightless City in the royal capital.

Especially some of the preferences of Lord ‘Ron Arnold’, this is very important.

In the past, he used this method to make a lot of money from the nobles, making them willing to pay for it.

Then, the big businessman Leo was dumbfounded. It was easy to talk about the principal's other preferences, but there was very little information about the lord, and they were all fragmentary information that was unknown to be true or false.

So cautious?

Leo frowned and decided to start contacting the territory's financial officer, Rosalind, who was the easiest person for him to approach.

However, before that, he needs to make a name for himself in the Carlo Kingdom. If he were in other kingdoms, he wouldn't need to bother so much. As long as he told his name, the merchants would give him face and flatter him.

There is no way, this Carlo Kingdom is too remote, and I have never heard of his name.

It took two or three days for the name of the great Leo businessman to spread throughout the royal capital. Both nobles and prestigious business leaders heard about a great businessman from the Kazlant Empire named Called Leo.

Everything he took out was a treasure, very rare. There are even rumors that the great businessman Leo presented a treasure to the royal family and was summoned by His Majesty the King to stay in the palace for one night.

This further proves Leo's identity as a big businessman.

Some high-ranking nobles sent invitations to Leo, but he did not refuse and accepted the invitations of some higher-status nobles because they knew better about Baron Arnold.

After being fully prepared, Leo and his caravan left the royal capital and headed for the Arnold Territory. They stopped and stopped along the way and made a small profit from the nobles of the territory they passed through.

With the status of a big businessman, it is much easier to make these small amounts of money.

Half a month later, Leo's caravan arrived at the Earl of Gordon, and in less than half a day's journey, they could enter the Arnold Territory.

Along the way here, Leo gradually became more confident, and at the same time he felt disdain and a sense of superiority welling up in his heart.

A small place is a small place, and without any discernment, a piece of ordinary stone becomes a treasure after being finely polished.

"Master, are we going to arrive at Arnold's territory today?" A servant came over and asked.

"It's not far anyway. Let's see if we can make another fortune today."

Leo smiled indifferently. Although he looked down upon it, he had to say that the Carlo Kingdom was extremely rich. He really didn't expect that there would be so many noble lords who could spend a lot of gold coins along the way.

It must be like the Count Fast who paid more money than a Marquis. He made a mistake.

At this time, another servant trotted over in panic and said: "Master, a lot of the goods we brought have died, do you think?"

Hearing this, Leo frowned displeased, and the servant trembled with a frightened expression. He only heard Leo say: "Just find a place and throw it away. It's bad luck."

"yes"

Following the orders of the big businessman, a group of servants dumped the creatures in the cargo boxes into the ditch on the roadside.

——

On this day, Aileen took Xiaobai out early.

She first went to the food stores on the street. Before she paid much, each shop owner gave away a lot of fresh food.

In their hearts, Irene is like a 'gourmet saint'. She has selflessly contributed a large number of recipes since the city was founded, and she also enthusiastically teaches everyone how to make delicious food. In the hearts of some people, her status is only lower than that of the lord.

"Miss Eileen, do you have any new recipes to announce today?" an ingredient store owner asked curiously.

The rest of the people nearby looked over with expectant eyes. Every time Erin announced a new recipe, there would be some huge changes in the major food streets in Miracle City.

"Yes, this time is different."

Irene had a smile on her face, which made people feel close to her and could not arouse any ill feelings. When others heard this, they quickly asked what the difference was.

"The recipe this time was given to me by the lord. It's called rice noodles, and it's a kind of snack."

Aileen gave a brief introduction. When everyone heard that it was given by the lord, they all looked shocked and listened attentively.

Woof!

In the middle of the conversation, Xiaobai called out, and Irene said apologetically: "It's now, I have to leave."

"It's our fault. We asked Miss Irene to chat." The food store owners waved their hands, saying it didn't matter, and urged her to go do more important things.

Irene carried the vegetable basket and left with Xiaobai. On the way, Irene thanked: "Thanks to you, Xiaobai, otherwise I would have forgotten the time."

Woof.

Xiaobai shook his tail and barked, looking very happy.

A man and a dog were walking along the busy street, turned around a few streets and came to a small building with a wooden plaque hanging on it.

——Gourmet Association.

The person who formed the 'Gourmet Association' is very mysterious. Irene has never seen it before, and she is the honorary vice president here. Whenever there is a new recipe, she will come here to announce it to everyone.

In a few days, the new recipe will become popular in Miracle City, and the citizens can taste it as long as they spend a certain amount of money.

To this day, there has never been any confusion because the president behind the Gourmet Society is Rosalind.

More than half of the association members are her subordinates, and she manages the pricing of food products in the entire Miracle City. How could there be chaos?

Irene was kept in the dark about all this, but with her character, she wouldn't care even if she found out in the end.

When Irene entered the association, she saw several people already making dishes. People who can join the gourmet association need a certain amount of cooking talent.

They innovate and make breakthroughs based on the original ones, and will not wait for the vice president to bring new recipes. This is one of the meanings of the existence of the Food Association.

"Miss Erin!"

The association members were very excited to see Irene's arrival, and they knew what it meant.

Some of these members are restaurant chefs, some are housewives, and some simply like cooking. They have different identities, but they all have a high passion for food.

Some of them achieved success, and the delicacies they invented became popular in the city, and one or two delicacies even appeared on the tables of the lords.

This is what they are most proud of.

Eileen smiled and greeted them, then left the recipe and made it herself. Finally, she said: "If you still don't understand anything, you can send a letter to the Baron Mansion and I will teach you next time."

"Thank you Miss Eileen (Vice President) for your guidance."

Various voices rang out, expressing their gratitude to Irene. Irene waved her hand, then led Xiaobai away.

Ron knew full well what Irene and Rosalind had done, and he had tacitly approved of it, otherwise they would not have dared to do so in private.

You will not gain any benefit from enjoying these exclusively, and you will not be able to feel superiority and happiness.

He would rather see a Miracle City with 'infinite possibilities' and 'infinite innovation'. Those novelties and new delicacies are the results he wants.

As soon as Irene left the Gourmet Association, she saw commotion on the street. She raised her eyebrows and saw that it seemed to be caused by a caravan.

A large number of caravans enter Miracle City every day. This is not surprising, but the leader of the caravan seems to have a different background. He is a big businessman who can enter the palace.

The leader of this caravan is none other than the great businessman Leo. The preparations he made in the early stage were extremely effective. Once they entered Miracle City, they had a great response, and they will surely spread to the ears of the lords soon.

Just as Leo was thinking this, his eyes suddenly caught sight of a certain figure on the street. He walked over in two steps, stopped Eileen and said: "This beautiful lady, I wonder if you can waste a little time. "

What are the most important qualities of a businessman?

A eloquent tongue?

Or integrity and business talent?

These are important, but the most indispensable thing is 'intuition'. When he saw Eileen for the first time, Leo had a hunch in his heart that this person was very important!

Lord's Mansion, front hall.

Here Ron met Leo, the so-called big businessman from the Kazlant Empire.

He didn't enter the house as a guest, so he didn't mean to be too polite in terms of etiquette.

When Ron learned that Leo relied on Irene to enter the central area, his interest dropped by half.

"What treasure? Take it out and take a look."

Ron said calmly, staring at Leo with calm eyes. Unlike ordinary businessmen, this big businessman could not see any shrewdness, but seemed ordinary. It was because of this that Ron gave him a chance to show himself. .

A true businessman will always hide himself and lower others' defensiveness.

At this time, Leo was greatly surprised. According to the information he received, Baron Arnold was very young, but he did not expect that he was too young.

He did not immediately show off his products, but simply summarized what he had experienced, what treasures he had acquired, and which important figures he had made friends with.

Leo didn't focus on these, he just mentioned it a little bit in one sentence, less than five sentences in total.

Ron saw through his intentions at a glance, and the smile on his face seemed to be absent. Leo's heart tightened, and he called his men to bring the treasures he wanted to offer.

A glowing carved gemstone was placed on a cotton pillow and served by a servant. When everyone's eyes focused on it, Leo started to introduce it in time.

"This treasure comes from a kingdom in my Kazlant Empire. It was created by the master."

As Leo began to tell the story of the gem's origin, the value of the gem gradually increased in everyone's minds.

Rosalind said calmly: "If what Mr. Leo said is true, then this 'flashing meteor' is worth at least tens of millions of gold coins. Are you really willing to offer such a treasure?"

Leo looked at her. No matter how bragging those people were, they were just kids who had never seen the world. However, they believed a fake story coupled with a half-truth. It seems that I overestimated them.

On the surface, he chuckled and said: "I came here for business on the next road. I heard about the deeds of Lord Baron and admired him very much, so I specially offer this treasure. Please don't refuse."

His words revealed that he was not motivated by any interests, but that he was impressed by Ron's charisma.

A simple person like Irene believed it, not only her, but also Egbert and Abel, who agreed with Leo's words very much.

"Mr. Leo, do you mind if I take a look?" Rosalind said. Leo's eyes flashed, and he nodded with a smile to express his permission.

Rosalind invited Joyce beside her, and the two came to the gem together. Rosalind said, "Sister Joyce, are you here to take a look?"

Joyce nodded and took a step forward to observe carefully. Seeing this situation, Leo's heart trembled.

After a while, Joyce said: "This is very similar to the 'flashing meteor' described in the book. Because I have never seen the real thing, I am not sure. But the story told by Mr. Leo is indeed recorded, Because it is a wandering thing, it is also known as the 'Lost Morning Star'."

Hearing this, Rosalind frowned slightly, while Leo seemed calm on the surface, but felt a little cold in his back.

Unexpectedly, there are still people in this small place who know about the lost treasure "Lost Morning Star". He also learned about it by accident. Fortunately, it was built according to the standard model, otherwise the secret would have been exposed.

He took a deep look at Joyce, then smiled and complimented: "This young lady is so knowledgeable and talented that she even knows the nickname 'Lost Morning Star'. This is the first time I have heard of it. Sure enough, this lady is dedicated to the Baron." The talent is right.”

Leo's words were half true and half false. He knew this alias but habitually concealed it. It happened to be that he could use it at this moment.

Seeing Leo's eyes, Ron chuckled and said, "Since Mr. Leo offers this treasure, I can't let you suffer."

Hearing this, the corners of Leo's mouth slightly raised, but then quickly restrained. Joyce pulled Rosalind, who was frowning in thought, back away. She whispered, "What are you thinking about? Pay attention to the occasion."

"Sister Joyce, I think he is a liar."

"Why are you so sure?"

"intuition."

While the two women were communicating softly, Leo had already ordered his servants to place treasures one by one for Ron to taste and choose.

These cost money.

The treasures were replaced one after another, but Ron still had no intention of buying it. While admiring the 'Lost Morning Star' in his hand, he asked Leo: "Is there anything else? The ones before were not to my liking. "

"Please wait a moment, Lord Baron, I will ask them to move everything here immediately."

Leo had cold sweat on his forehead, and he gradually felt something was wrong. His intuition was always very accurate.

When Leo brought up all the things he obtained during his trade, Ron focused on a bag of exotic seeds, selected this item and asked about the price.

Leo felt drained of blood in his heart. He glanced at Joyce who was standing behind him. He didn't dare to raise the price too high and said a number.

Ron said: "I said I won't let you suffer, so just add more."

When he named a price, Leo finally couldn't maintain his composure and his body swayed slightly. The price Ron said was not much different from the price he paid a lot of money to hire someone to make a fake 'Lost Morning Star'.

this means

"My lord, Baron, this is an offense."

After that, Leo left half of the 'treasure' and left the Baron's Mansion with his men, and then left Arnold's territory in a short time.

Irene looked at the half-left treasure with confusion, while Egbert and others looked back with anger.

Abel even asked for orders: "Lord, please allow my subordinates to capture him."

"No need."

Ron waved his hand. These treasures were left behind by Leo specifically to calm his anger.

And he agreed, so he let him leave.

Although these so-called 'treasures' are fakes, their craftsmanship is not bad and they can be used as ordinary jewelry.

For example, the 'Lost Morning Star' in his hand is a green-quality treasure, not as good as the real thing, but converted into gold coins, it is still nearly one million.

A few days after this incident, there were rumors that the great businessman Leo offered treasures to the lord, and then the lord bought nearly half of the treasures, attracting most traveling businessmen to Miracle City, wanting to follow suit.

Ron didn't know about these things. He recently received a letter from Earl Gordon and was preparing to go to the earldom.

The letter mentioned that the current countess is pregnant and may be the next successor to the Gordon family.

Ron remembered that his uncle Aseric Gordon had a green entry for having many children and many blessings. The more direct descendants, the more blessings.

He wanted to see the effects of blessing.

When Ron arrived at the Earl's Mansion in a carriage, he saw his uncle with a sad face. His heart skipped a beat. Wasn't the child Michelle's? !

After making some insinuations, he discovered that Aserik was worried about something else.

"Ron, look at it. Even this thing appeared in my territory."

At Aseric's command, a servant came over with a barrel. Ron looked over and was shocked.

I saw that the barrel was filled with reddish-brown crustaceans, with tentacles on their heads and curved tail fans on their tails. A pair of large claws were the most eye-catching.

Isn't this crayfish? !
