This transaction truly made Su Li feel the difference from his first visit to Marle Castle. Back then, he only had a few hundred Golden Crowns in his hand. When he entered the Gray Market Trading Company, he naturally only attracted the attention of a minor steward.
Now he ca directly to the headquarters of the Gray Market Trading Company, discussing deals worth over 9000 Golden Crowns, possibly even exceeding 10,000 Golden Crowns. Because Su Li didn’t have ti to stay in Marle Castle for long and haggle over each item with people, it was obvious that President Roger would seize the opportunity to lower the price.
In this world, a transaction exceeding 10,000 Golden Crowns is sothing that any power would pay attention to.
Such a large quantity of forbidden items was gathered by Su Li after sweeping through the Hesse Mountain Range and most parts of the western Blood Pine Forest of ancient relics and the Evil Wizard Tower, plus half of a Dragon’s Nest, and a whole year’s opportunities.
Su Li felt that if he didn’t proceed with large-scale military expansion this year, the inco in this area would significantly decrease.
However, at least another agreent was reached, and the atmosphere in the hall beca more relaxed and pleasant. Trade agreents are destined to enhance goodwill between both parties.
President Roger, too, felt less constrained compared to when he was at Sea-Lake Park; he relaxed considerably. He leaned back on the sofa, spreading his arms above the backrest, and said to Su Li, "Brother Su Li, I have many exquisite won here, would you like to experience it?"
Su Li decisively waved his hand and said, "No, I have mysophobia."
"Rest assured, they are all very clean. If you don’t want to associate with other aristocrats, I also have many virgins here."
"Thank you for your kindness, President Roger. I also have so ntal hygiene issues." He couldn’t accept himself getting involved with prostitutes, nor could he accept having been with a woman who would later beco a tool for others to vent, a pair of jade arms resting for a thousand, a taste of those lips for ten thousand. If he were to take one back, not only would he owe President Roger a favor, but he would also be mocked by others: a dignified lord marrying a prostitute as his courtier. The key concern was her character, after all, Silvana, a Greenfield Knight, had been assessed by him for so long. How could he fail to control his desires and fool around with prostitutes?
President Roger laughed heartily: "Bauhinia Knight, you simply haven’t had enough socializing ti! That’s why you can’t let go. Once you try a few more tis, you’ll enjoy the pleasures."
"I noticed from the ti you refused Senator Smith; you seldom interact with other aristocrats, hence so cautious. In reality, Senator Smith is very nice, generous, and considerate to his people, consistently presenting himself as a noble. He really stands firm when it’s needed."
Su Li asked with a smile, "Like the knights protecting their territory’s serfs?"
"It’s said one can enjoy the shade under a big tree, and Senator Smith genuinely can share significant benefits with us."
Su Li waved his hand and said, "If you’re going to speak for Senator Smith, there’s no need, given that Mr. Smith is not here. Right now, I just want to discuss transactions with the president of the Gray Market Trading Company."
Seeing this, Roger also refrained from saying more, as he didn’t want to offend either party. This Bauhinia Knight, even though he had only been in Marle Castle for a day, already brought him so much wealth. Naturally, he should fortify these ties.
So he imdiately said: "Brother Su Li, what transactions would you like to discuss? I indeed have a lot of good stuff here, such as powerful slaves. I just asked my staff, and Brother Su Li bought slaves from our trading company last ti. Is Brother Su Li interested in buying another batch? We have more, less publicly convenient slaves on the fifth basent level of our headquarters."
Su Li’s eyes lit up; this kind of transaction intrigued him. He imdiately asked, "Can we take a look?"
