Chapter 173: Simple Thinking and Low IQ

Elsa and her grandparents should have been happy with each other, but unfortunately the current atmosphere in the room is really not harmonious.

Although Elsa and Parola had a good chat, Erica, who was later brought over by Adrien, was excited to join the chat after seeing Elsa, who was exactly like her daughter.

It's a pity that on the other side, Orbury and Adrien have been eyeing Donn all the time.

"Donne, you can make a price."

Orbury suddenly said in a deep voice, "How are you willing to let Elsa stay?" ”

"Are you kidding, Lord Duke?"

Don grinned: "If you want her to stay, you go and tell her, what's the use of telling me." ”

"Come on!" Aubury snorted, "Who are you fooling?" Fools can see that your words have a big effect on Elsa...... Let me tell you, the direct descendants of our Foel family must go to the Royal Military Academy of Illus to further their studies, you should understand that this is a huge opportunity for Elsa, and you can't deprive her of the opportunity to learn and grow because of your own selfishness! ”

"Of course! Of course! ”

Tang En nodded again and again, his face full of righteousness: "I know the meaning very well, so I didn't stop you." ”

Aubury and Adrien looked at Don suspiciously, and although he said he didn't stop it, any fool could tell that he didn't intend to let Elsa stay at all.

"You really don't stop?"

"Of course! I mean what I say! ”

"That's good...... Elsa, I-"

Tang En smiled and said, "Lord Duke, wait a minute. ”

I knew it!

I really had to think about it to believe him!

Aubury really felt the urge to break Donn's body to pieces: "What's the matter?" ”

"I don't know if you've heard of the Datang Chamber of Commerce?"

"Datang Chamber of Commerce? Haven't heard of it. ”

Aubury frowned and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Don smiled and looked at Hilton.

Hilton leaned over and whispered, "The news transmission from Bein to the Imperial Capital is relatively slow. Coupled with the fact that we are short of supply. So the retail dealers haven't spread the word yet......"

"I see......"

Don nodded. A bright smile appeared on his face again: "Since this is the case, then I will say it bluntly, Lord Duke, I want to work for the welfare of my people, so I set up a chamber of commerce called Datang in Ellington to do some inconspicuous small business." ”

"So what?"

"I came to the imperial capital this time, on the one hand, to be interrogated by the noble council, and on the other hand, I wanted to expand the market here. Soβ€”"

"Wait!"

Obury suddenly became excited: "What did you say? You are going to be interrogated by the Council of Nobles? What's the trouble you're in? ”

"Not a big hassle......"

"Oh......"

Obury was disappointed.

Don was in pain, and the old bastard seemed to want to see what trouble he got into.

"Just killed a noble lord."

"Original...... What!? ”

Obury was dumbfounded: "'Just'? Killed a noble lord? Still 'just'? ”

Tang En slapped his forehead: "Oh, I forgot, it's actually two." ”

"Two!?"

Adrien next to him was also stunned: "What the hell do you want to do?" ”

Although there are true gods in Plandal, the divine right does not interfere with the politics of the kingship and is independent of the king, so a country is still headed by the king.

Under this, the royal power needs to be maintained by the nobles with vested interests, so many provisions in the law are to protect the rights and interests of the nobles, in this environment. Even His Majesty Victor wants to touch the rights and interests of the nobles will cause very sensitive questions.

But. This kid in front of him actually killed two noble lords in one go!?

Well done!

Aubury and Adrien looked at each other and became excited.

Obury grabbed Donn, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Boy, you're in big trouble. ”

"That's right, big ~ trouble!"

Adrien nodded in agreement, deliberately scaring Don - they felt that Don looked young and should be easy to deal with.

"So, let's make a deal."

Obery grinned: "How about we help you settle the Council of Nobles, and as a deal, you help us convince Elsa to let her stay, how about it?" ”

Seeing that Don didn't speak, Aubury continued: "Of course, we won't treat you badly, what kind of chamber of commerce are you talking about?" How about the two of us to call the shots, give you a special license to run a chamber of commerce in Alinks, recommend you to join the business alliance, and then prepare a shop with the best location for you, how about it? ”

Obury had a smug smile on his face, and he was sure that no one could refuse any of his offers, especially since this guy was in big trouble.

Don shook his head: "Not very good." ”

The smile on Obury's face froze.

Don glanced at Aubury and Adrien, "Two dukes, you don't seem to have figured out a single situation. ”

"What do you mean?"

"What the hell is that noble council, I don't care at all."

Don reached out: "Believe me, I have a way to settle them." ”

"But it's a commercial licenseβ€”"

"No, no, no, Lord Duke, you're not a merchant, so you don't understand what kind of creatures a merchant is."

Tang En waved his finger and said with a smile: "Businessmen are profit-seeking, so that commercial license can be done with only a fee, as for any business alliance, I'm not interested in it at all...... Of all the conditions you mentioned, the only thing that interests me a little is the shop with the best location. ”

That's right, this is the only one that really works for Donn.

The land, especially the land of this kind of metropolis, must have been monopolized by those nobles, in this case, he can't buy it even if he has gold coins, he must have connections, back, quiet and strength.

However, even knowing this. Don still has to give it a try. What if they don't know?

By the way, you can also pour a basin of cold water on them.

Negotiations. The comparison is who can take the initiative.

Seeing that they had just smiled, Tang En poured the prepared cold water on it: "However, this kind of thing can also be done with gold coins...... For a merchant, as long as gold coins can solve the problem, it is not a problem. ”

Aubury, face as black as ink.

"Humph! Stinky boy! Are you too confident! ”

Adrien said with a straight face: "This is Alink, not Ellington, no one will sell your face...... Over here. If you want to buy a shop with the best location, you don't just have gold coins, you don't have an identity, you don't have connections, you don't even have the qualifications to enter! ”

Or is he quick to react!

Obury breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "That's right, in Alinks, the shops with the best locations have long been controlled by various noble families, and even an unknown lord with no identity and no background like you wants to buy them?" No money will sell it to you. ”

Shh

Don En pouted, these two old guys actually understand?

"That's right."

Aubury and Adrien smiled again.

"So we can still trade."

"Then do as I said before......"

"Nope. You don't have the right to negotiate terms with me. ”

Don En smiled very badly: "You must and can only listen to me in the way of the transaction, because ...... Elsa listens to me. ”

This bastard......

Obury clenched his fists. It was not easy to restrain himself, and then he listened to Don continue: "The only thing I can promise you is to try to persuade Elsa to let her accept you, stay with you for the next few days, and come back to see you when I have the opportunity, but if I want her to stay, it is impossible, Ellington needs her, and I need her." ”

"And the transaction you need to pay for is a shop that satisfies me, and nothing else is necessary."

Obery took a deep breath and said with a smile: "In other words, you don't want to pay anything, and you want us to take out real money?" ”

Don spread his hands, his face was very innocent: "In this transaction, you are the one who makes the demands, and my side does not have any necessary demands, so of course I have the initiative, and I will leave with Elsa." ”

"Okay...... Boy, you're good at it...... It's the first time I've seen someone as shameless and honest as you in all these years! ”

After many years, Aubury had almost forgotten what it was like to be emotionally swayed, and on this day, Aubury finally remembered once again the fear of being emotionally dominated......

"Thanks for the compliment."

"I promise you."

"That's great."

"Adrien!?"

"Calm down......"

Adrien patted Obery on the shoulder, pulled him to the side, and whispered, "Promise him first." ”

"Butβ€”"

"But what? Are you stupid? ”

Adrien's face was full of disdain: "After so many years, your IQ has not improved at all...... Think about it, if Elsa accepts us and approves of us, then in her heart, is it our family that is important, or is the lord important? ”

"Of course it's our ......," Obury was stunned, "you mean ......"

"When she approves of us, of course we will have the final say, what is that kid?"

Adrien sneered: "When the time comes, don't you want to pinch him flat and round?" ”

"I see!"

Obery suddenly realized: "It's yours!" How did I forget that...... Old fellow, after all these years, you are still so insidious! ”

"It's not that I'm insidious, it's that you have a simple mind and a low IQ."

"You're looking for ballast again, aren't you?"

Looking at Done, who was sitting there sipping tea with a calm face, and was in the mood to tease Ilia, Hilton was full of admiration again.

The lord is not only powerful, but also experienced in alchemy, with impeccable personal charm, and he is so insightful in business, even Hilton has a faint understanding.

Alas, the lord is good anywhere, it's just ......

Seeing Don scratching Elia's neck and ears there, making Elijah laugh, Hilton's eyes were a little weird, and she remembered the rumors in Ellington a while ago.

Why is the lord's hobby so weird? (To be continued.) )

PS: Well, it seems that I didn't have a good title for the book...... In that case, I can only sacrifice the weapon of murder - yes, in fact, the full title of this book is "Those Things That I Have to Say to the Goddess of the Other World" (manual funny)
