Seeing Beta's reluctance to ask for the Grusons, Amanda just smiled and understood.

Although the Grusons are generally strong in combat, the people are notoriously capricious. They often regret what they have agreed on the next day.

They have a rather bad reputation, it's just that their strong combat power makes up for this shortcoming. Therefore, they serve as guards in many caravans. At the same time, it is also a rather contradictory people, although they like to go back on their word, but when it comes to fighting, they are extremely persistent, and whenever an enemy appears, they will fight until the enemy dies, or they are unable to move.

Their contradictory personalities have led to mixed reviews of them by people of other nationalities, many of whom will be hired as caravan guards and bound by heavy contracts, but even so, they still like to tear up the promises they made not long ago.

Therefore, many people did not like the presence of the Grusons in the caravan.

Considering that her clients also have this tendency, Amanda looked through her thick records, then closed them, and said, "There are thirteen caravans suitable for your Excellency, and Your Excellency needs to hear their situation." ”

Generally speaking, if you need to sell your caravans, you are already on the verge of bankruptcy, or you have various situations of your own. So sometimes the acquisition of a caravan, or just the acquisition of a trouble back.

Beta pointed her finger on the table and said, "You can introduce me to one, I believe in your professional vision." ”

Amanda thought for a moment and said, "What about the 'Black-tailed Scorpion' caravan?" ”

"Black-tailed scorpions?" Beta's eyebrows twitched slightly: "This name sounds imposing enough." ”

Amanda smiled, "The Black-tailed Scorpion Caravan currently has fifty-three men, and each of them is a veteran of the Traveling Merchants. And they don't have any bad track record before, so I think they should be a good fit to be your caravan. ”

Shirley was a little curious: "Since they are all veterans of the traveling merchants, then they should be able to make a profit, why are they in a hurry to sell the caravan?" ”

"Because they're out of luck." Amanda said with a bit of an exclamation: "They have encountered accidents three times in a row. The first time was a flash flood road closure, which lasted for nearly a month, and when they arrived at their destination, the market had passed, and the goods could only be sold cheaply, losing a lot of money. ”

"The second time I met a robber, most likely in the guise of the army." Amanda sighed deeply, as if she was worried that the caravan was not worth it: "There are too many people on the other side, and they have no way to resist, but fortunately, that mysterious army only took their goods and did not take their lives." ”

"The third time is even more ridiculous. They were carrying the precious Shimmer fish and planned to cross the desert, and if this business was successful, they would not only be able to recoup their previous losses, but even make a slight surplus, which was unfortunate to ......"

"Have you been robbed again?" Shirley asked.

Amanda shook her head: "There was a tornado, and they were all blown away, but every one of them miraculously survived afterwards, at most they suffered some minor injuries, but the goods and donkey carts were all gone." The route they traveled was near the edge of the desert, where it stands to reason that there should be no whirlwinds. ”

Shirley exclaimed, "It's really unlucky." ”

"The Black-tailed Scorpion Chamber of Commerce, which was originally very good, has become a bankrupt caravan." Amanda smiled wryly, "And because they have been unlucky three times in a row, no one dares to buy them, even if they have a good business record before." ”

"Why did you introduce them to us when they were so unlucky?" Shirley was a little puzzled: "Bad luck, although we are not afraid, but it is not a happy thing to get into trouble." ”

Even on the earth in the information age, human beings have great fears of such mysterious things as bad luck, not to mention that this magical world has a fate, and no one wants to touch this thing.

"No, they're just plain unlucky." Amanda said firmly: "It has absolutely nothing to do with bad luck, I can guarantee that." ”

Shirley was a little amused: "You don't know magic, and you don't have divinity, how can you be so sure that they don't have bad luck." ”

"I don't understand it, but we have professionals to evaluate it." Amanda bowed to Shirley slightly: "This lady, please rest assured, we will definitely not lie in this regard." ”

Madam! This word had a great attraction for Shirley, and when she heard Amanda say this, she immediately became smiling and stopped refusing anything.

Professionals! Beta always had a bad feeling when she heard this word, after all, on earth, the word had turned sour.

"Since you think so highly of them, then give me their contact information." Beta took out a gold coin from his space backpack and flicked it onto the table: "If you can take us there and be a lobbyist in the center, then this gold coin is yours." ”

With a bang, the gold coin that had just fallen on the table disappeared in an instant. Amanda's speed of getting money is already comparable to that of a professional. After the gold coin arrived, she smiled and said, "Your Excellency is really generous, please come with me." ”

About ten minutes later, Amanda and the three Beta came to a mansion near the North City.

On the way over, Beta noticed that the eyeliners who were watching him had also followed. But they behaved quite professionally, and if it weren't for Joan of Arc watching these people from heaven, even Beta would have treated them like ordinary people.

However, the men showed no signs of hostility, and Beta let it go, turning her attention to the building in front of her.

Not much different from the other mansions in the city of Javey, this building is also made of white rock. The smooth walls reflect the cold light in the winter sun.

There are no people in the garden, only overgrown with weeds. From here, it can be seen that this residence has not been taken care of for a while.

Amanda walked to the door, rang the bell, and in a few moments a middle-aged man with almost gray hair walked out.

He has a vicissitudes of life, although his clothes look gorgeous, but his face is not very good, and he is obviously very decadent and melancholy.

Seeing Amanda, the middle-aged man held up a smile, with a thick bitterness in it: "Amanda, long time no see." ”

"Uncle Chad, long time no see." Amanda smiled at the middle-aged man and said, "I'll help you bring a noble lord who is willing to buy your caravan." You can talk, I'm listening, if you need it, I can help you replenish. ”

As soon as Chad, who was originally a little melancholy, heard this, he immediately became much more energetic. He walked two quick steps to Beta, performed the etiquette of a commoner meeting a nobleman, and then said, "Thank you, Your Excellency, for coming into my house, please come in, and we may have a conversation while we have lunch." ”

The middle-aged man's gaze swept over Shirley and Jessica at the same time, and then showed a look of surprise.

However, he knew how to be measured, and after simply stopping his gaze for a moment, he took his eyes off Shirley's face.

Then he led a few people into the small white building.

The living room is simple with white stone tiles on the floor. Originally, there were precious animal skin carpets here, but because the owner lacked money, it has now been sold.

After they had sat down in the drawing-room, an ordinary-looking maid came out of it and brought fruit wine and some very simple pastries.

With a look on his face, Chad said, "Your Excellency, Madam, I'm sorry. I know these things don't deserve your identity, but it's the best food I can offer right now. ”

Beta said indifferently, "It's okay, we're here to talk about a deal, not to eat." ”

Shirley picked up a piece of pastry and handed it to Jessica.

Chad sighed: "Thank you for your understanding. ”

Amanda said on the side, "Okay, Uncle Chad, don't say so many polite words. The aristocratic lord is very busy, you should quickly state your conditions. ”

"Okay." Chad looked at Beta, paused, and said, "Our caravan is still as large as before, and we know how to do business. The difficulties we are encountering now are nothing more than a lack of money, and as long as we have money, our caravan can be reborn. How you bought our caravan is definitely a good deal. ”

Beta nodded: "These Amanda have told me, I just want to know, how much money do you want to transfer your caravan." Or what else is needed. ”

"There are two conditions." Chad glanced at Beta, and seeing that he showed no signs of anger, he continued: "First, I must still be the head of the Blacktail Scorpion Caravan. Second, you must not interfere with our business practices. ”

Beta was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "You mean, I spent money to buy an uncle to come back and provide for me?" ”

"Of course not." Chad explains: "Because of the traveling business, the market for goods is changing rapidly. If you are well-versed in business, you will know what I mean. I want the caravan to be in charge of its own business, and of course, all the money earned is your Excellency's, and this will never change. ”

Beta thought for a moment and asked, "Can't give in?" I need a caravan that can follow my orders, followed by making money. ”

Chad shook his head and sighed, "The black-tailed scorpion is like my child, if I can't call the shots, then I'd rather the black-tailed scorpion be removed from now on." ”

Amanda hurriedly said, "Uncle Chard, you are stupid." This aristocratic lord, I don't care about your bad luck, you still dislike yourself? If this continues, when will you sell the caravan, you know, you owe a lot of money to others. ”

Chad's face was a little lost, but he still shook his head and said, "My conditions will not change. ”

Amanda was so angry that she really said something, but at this time Beta stood up: "In that case, forget it." I'll go check out the others. Amanda, take me to the other caravan sellers. ”

With a long sigh, Amanda stood up, gave Chad a somewhat helpless look, and turned to leave with Beta. (To be continued.) )
