"Even if you are a dragon, you have to admire your wrist, but is it okay to sue me as an outsider for such an internal matter of the company?"
Fingers wrapped around her sideburns, Valrhona questioned, nonchalantly.
Li Lin was very enthusiastic, but too enthusiastic, this kind of enthusiasm that even revealed the company's internal information to the people who met for the first time made Valrhona subconsciously tighten her money bag.
Experience tells the princess of the dragon clan: As soon as the profiteer is enthusiastic, your purse is in danger.
Li Lin didn't answer immediately, swaying the glass, the early spring sun shine through the whiskey and ice, casting an amber swaying light and shadow on the desk, admiring it with interest for a while, Li Lin said:
"The longer a good wine is stored, the more mellow it becomes, and the same is true for this point. β
Valrhona's expression froze instantly, and when she was about to change color, the voice of "I'm sorry, I forgot that Your Highness is not good at drinking" floated over, and the protest that had been prepared immediately collapsed, so she had to wait for the following.
"It's a gesture of sincerity to potential partners. β
"I'm really flattered. β
Without a second of delay, Valrhona calmly pushed back, her hand clutching her purse harder, and her eyes began to wander, looking like she didn't plan to stay any longer.
Dragons are far from having to take sides, and jumping on the elven camp thief ship too early is not a smart choice before the form becomes clear. Until the right time comes, the dragons will remain as neutral as ever.
So, there is only one sentence that is flattered without weight and sincerity. There will be no more representations.
I don't know if I saw through Valrhona's intentions, the corners of Li Lin's mouth rose more and more.
"Miss, I wonder if the dragon clan is willing to cooperate with our company at the economic level?"
"You mean...... Business?"
was attacked again by surprise, but Valrhona had somewhat adapted to it, quickly calculated in her heart, shook her head lightly and said:
"I'm sorry, but we don't have the talent or experience to do business. β
It's a complete lie. Nidhogg is a successful businessman and big capitalist, and the previous conversation also shows that Valrhona is by no means "without talent and experience" for business management, as it is said here. Actually, except for the dwarves who opened the bank in Serres. This world belongs to the dragons who have the most racial talent for economic activities. If it weren't for the fact that their population is too small. Coupled with a consistent low-key style, a sensitivity to the flow of money, and a strong ability to summon competitors with fangs and claws and large magic, the lifeblood of the world economy is very likely to be in the hands of dragons.
What the ancient cocooning breeds lacked was not business skills. It's about being aggressive and determined to get rid of the wait-and-see stance.
This is premature. Li Lin lightly clapped the table and said, "The dragon clan will get a huge reward from the cooperation-"
"We're not short of money. Excellency. β
Negotiations began to depend. Valrhona retorted confidently for the first time, and the haze that had been suppressed was also swept away with this bold statement.
No one knows exactly how much the dragons have in total, except for the "ordinary gadgets" like gold and jewelry. Many members of the dragon clan also collect antiques and art. Since the life cycle is far beyond the intelligent species, these dragon members have developed a super-first-class appreciation ability, and what they can collect is a treasure among the treasures. Among them, there are many national treasure-level cultural relics and historical magic props, famous swords and swords that the dragon clan has managed to get over thousands of years, and many of them have never even appeared in front of the world. The value of these treasures is immeasurable, and it is not an exaggeration to say that each piece is priceless.
How rich the dragons are, whether in the past, present, or even in the distant future, I am afraid that no one can correctly estimate this question. The only thing that is certain is that there is no race in the world that is more qualified to say the phrase "Lord is not bad for money" than the dragons.
"Whew, is that so?"
The mocking smile did not move, and the black-haired boy did not reply to the order:
"Nied Hogg. β
"Yes, Your Excellency. β
Nidhogg, who had been standing still like a foil, almost mistaking him for a statue, stepped forward and listened only to a calm command from the front.
"Accompany Her Highness Valrhona out for a walk, and let your kind explain it in person, show our 'sincerity', and Your Highness may change his mind. β
Hearing Nidhogg's respectful answer of "subordinates obey orders", Valrhona also stood up to greet him, and said "unaccompanied" delicate lips curled into a sneer of disdain, and then turned around and followed Nidhogg out of the somewhat cold office.
There was a dull sound of the door closing, and Li Lin lifted his posture of negotiation, sinking his back into the office chair, and his handsome face returned to expressionless mode.
As expected, the initial communication did not go well. The policy of neutrality that has been implemented for thousands of years will not change by just one or two contacts, which has factors such as tradition and ideology, as well as the limitations of the realistic strategic pattern, and there is still a lot of work to be done to change this iron rule of the dragon clan.
Although he didn't expect a success from the beginning, Li Lin didn't plan to let Valrhona leave like this, it was not enough to just talk about it, so it would be good to show it off with actions, so that the group of local buns who were shrinking on an overseas island would have a good understanding of what a "fighter among local tyrants" was, and what was "only money left for the poor". Nidhogg is a good player, and you won't have a problem handing it over to him.
Of course, even if Nidhogg succeeded, Li Lin did not intend to ask the dragon clan to immediately form a political and military alliance with the elven camp. Not to mention that the dragons won't accept it, and it's far from that urgency right now. Rashly making such a request would only backfire and make the dragons disgusted with the elven camp.
Instead of hoping for an alliance that is out of reach, it is better to do something win-win in a down-to-earth manner, and to make a real profit, and it is the group of earth buns who have never seen and thought of the huge profits to speak, and when you see the precious metals and precious stones that burst into the nest, and listen to the pleasant concert of wealth washing and colliding with each other like a waterfall, truth and desire will be a hundred times more powerful than a few words and words to tell the sΓΉ of the winged reptiles - as long as you join hands with the elves, you can easily make a profit.
However, since it is a win-win situation, it is by no means a unilateral concession by V.E, and the dragons must also provide corresponding assistance, which includes both physical and monetary efforts - which is still not worth mentioning compared to the profits gained afterwards.
All they had to do was attack merchant ships at sea and invest start-up money in a railroad construction project. Next, just do nothing and just profit from the craziest and most horrific scam ever recorded by Wilt.
For a group of scrookers living in caves, there's nothing more appealing to them than this easy-handed way of making money. (To be continued......)
