Not a Witch

"This...Miss Mesia is not joking." A certain representative twitched, suspecting that the girl was exaggerating, and wanted to take the opportunity to ask for a price. Such tactics are not uncommon in business.

"No, if you don't believe me, I can ask the Chamber of Commerce to send you the real thing for everyone to confirm in two months." She nodded calmly.

It's strange to say that she is usually shy and unfamiliar when chatting with people, but when it comes to business matters, the girl is generous and natural, and even has a rare and trustworthy seriousness.

"If this is the case, then can we sign an agreement in advance." Although there are still some doubts, these representatives also intend to throw an olive branch.

Let’s take it first and then talk, anyway, if you don’t see the real thing, you won’t pay, and you won’t lose money.

"This is no problem, but I want to talk to your president personally, after all, this is a very important matter."

Seeing that the few people present were still hesitant and hesitant, Lorraine Hill found the waiter who was on the side and ordered a few words.

Not long after, a heavy box was moved over and placed in the private room of this coffee shop.

Open the box, and a piece of moonlight cloth about 24 catties is displayed.

Close the curtains, light a candle, let the light shine on the pure white cloth, and then shake slightly, the cloth king seems to have soft moonlight, like the ripples of water, spreading and fluttering.

"Now I can believe a part of it."

The pupils were fixed on the pure white moonlight cloth rippling under the candlelight, and the voices of several representatives trembled with surprise.

"No problem, we will try our best to meet your needs."

Afterwards, the meeting between Lorraine Hill and the presidents of these chambers of commerce was decided.

And through this, she can finally get in touch with the hidden forces behind the scenes of Lanyi Province, a mysterious organization that relies on commercial activities to slowly infiltrate local nobles and legions.

Chapter 160 The Banquet of Ladored

'Blue is older than other colors. '——A proverb from the province of Lanyi

The capital of the Blue Clothes Province, Ladored.

The city was built at the foot of the mountain, and a stream of melted snow flowed down from the towering mountain and merged into the cistern on the north side of the city.

The cistern is semicircular and built of pure white rocks. When the water inside is full, it will flow to the other three lower cisterns below, layer by layer.

A total of five layers of reservoirs are overlooked from the sky, like blue shells, layered on top of each other, very beautiful.And the shell-like reservoir is also the symbol of Ladored.

The establishment of this city has to start from the time of chaos and disaster. At that time, the chaotic creatures corrupted by chaos attacked everywhere, and the remaining local residents and travelers had to rely on the mountains, and the streams flowing down from the mountains became The rare unpolluted water source allowed the people in the entire stronghold to survive and persist until the end of the disaster.

In the eyes of the survivors, this stream was cast with a sacred meaning. Later, it centered on this stronghold and gradually expanded outwards, and finally developed into today's Lanyi Province.

Ladorede, which means the clear spring flowing from the sky, is the name of the capital of the blue-clothed province.

In a luxurious mansion in the city, a small banquet is being held.

Exquisitely decorated carriages were parked in the open space in front of the mansion, and some waiters in uniforms with blue background and white border entertained the guests.

In the hall, the lights are bright, and there are more than a dozen beautiful and exquisitely carved copper ice mirrors in this temporarily rented mansion, emitting a faint cold smoke, making the temperature cool.

It is now June, and the weather is not too hot, but the host can't relax because of this. After all, the Miss Mesia who hired them spent a lot of gold coins, and they have to let people see the effect.

In the side room of the hall, Lorraine Hill was standing in front of the mirror with his dress in his hands, taking a final look.

In fact, she didn't want to make it so grand and complicated at first, but after the invitation was announced that day, several representatives asked about the specific date and address, only to find that some things were not that simple.

"If you are inviting such a person, you can't just find a small restaurant on the side of the road to meet your guests." After the others left, a female representative expressed her suggestion in good faith.

"Although Miss Mesia is only one person, since you have sent an invitation, it is better to prepare a decent occasion. The president of our family may not care, but there is no guarantee that everyone will think so."

"If you randomly call everyone to an unknown restaurant, will it be considered as contempt or insult?"

"Do you have any good suggestions?" As a last resort, Lorraine Hill had to ask.

"Hey, maybe it's a bit boastful, but I do know a friend who owns several hotels, mansions, restaurants, etc., and can provide good rental services."

Under such circumstances, Lorraine Hill also had to prepare well.

When she was Mesia, her hair was chestnut blond, which was similar to Bu Mansha, but her hairstyle was not as mature as Bu Mansha, and it was still a girlish curly hairstyle.

A little hair hangs from the side of the ear, and the rest is tucked behind. There is a white bow tied on the back of the head, which complements the white long skirt with pleated patterns on her body. She is wearing light dancing shoes under her feet. Looming, while wearing hollow white lace gloves on the wrist.

It felt a little overdressed.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Lorraine Hill was slightly distressed.

Although good-looking is indeed a happy thing, but too good-looking will always bring some unnecessary troubles.Originally this operation was to keep a low profile, why did it suddenly become like this again.

Do you want to stop covering it up?Lorraine Hill thought for a while, and then held the smoky crystal pendant that Daisy gave her on her chest. The face in the mirror was also a little hazy, so that it would not be too stunning.

That's the only way to go. In other words, I still have to find an agent in the future.

Lorraine Hill tapped his forehead with his fingers, blinked, then lifted himself up and walked out of the room.

The guests in the hall were talking quietly, and the band around the dance floor played soothing music. Because they had just arrived, the owners of these chambers of commerce were not in a hurry, but took the opportunity to say hello to a few acquaintances.

"It's been a while since we met. How are you doing recently? I heard that the military has placed a big order with you again. I'm really envious."

"Ahaha, don't make fun of me. Everyone knows that the military's orders are not easy to do. The price is very low, and there are many demands."

"Mr. Currea is joking again. How many people dream of such an opportunity. If you can get in touch with the military, you will be much more stable in the southern border now."

"Where is it, Mr. Xilun is the most respectable among us. He has been responsible for presenting tributes to the royal court. How many princes and princesses got married wearing clothes made by your family."

"Don't dare to be, those are just in the past..." The presidents or leaders of these chambers of commerce praised and joked with each other, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Compared with other industries, although the products of these big chambers of commerce in Lanyi province compete with each other all the year round, they are often united when dealing with foreign enemies or counterparts in other regions. This is why the fabric and clothing industry here can always be ranked first in the empire. front row.

'Because their ancestors were close friends who shared weal and woe. 'A nobleman's evaluation.

In that era when laws and national systems were not yet sound, whether you could be treated fairly depended on your status and how many friends you had.

After the chaos and calamity, the continent experienced a chaotic era. At that time, there were hundreds of countries, and various forces rose and fell. If they did not unite, they would be easily destroyed.It is also because of this that the predecessors of these chambers of commerce, or their predecessors, had a lot of cooperation and friendship with the enemy.

Although it is gradually weakening nowadays, the tradition of not excessively competing and uniting with foreign countries is still preserved and passed down.

"Then, I would like to invite the initiator of this banquet, Ms. Mesia." After the host gave an impassioned speech, he finally welcomed our protagonist into the venue with applause.

Taking a deep breath, Lorraine Hill nodded to the temporary maid beside him, and then the door opened, revealing the bright and bright hall.

The girl in a pure white dress walked down the steps step by step, her exquisite profile was like a bright moon slowly moving the lake surface, making everyone present swayed by her heart.

"This is....."

"I can't find the right words to describe it."

"Perhaps this is the embodiment of beauty."

After a while, everyone calmed down and smiled and applauded.Seeing that there was no accident in the hall, Lorraine Hill was also slightly relieved.

That should be a good way to talk.

"I am very glad that you are here, and welcome to the banquet I prepared for you." The common banquet reception words, in the clear and moving voice of this girl, have a magical effect.

Obviously there was nothing novel about the content, but everyone thought that it would be great if they could keep talking, and they didn't even care what the girl said.

As long as the soft voice brushes the body and mind, it seems that all the hustle and bustle and anxiety will go away, and the world will become quiet and beautiful.

Chapter 160 Six 'Black Rabbit' Chamber of Commerce

"Mr. Currea, hello..."

Under the introduction of the maid beside him, Lorraine Hill greeted the masters of these chambers of commerce one by one.

After a while of pleasantries, the girl finally got to know all the people present. Among them, people from four large chambers of commerce and seven medium-sized chambers of commerce came to the banquet.

Sitting at the top of the long table, Lorraine Hill patted his palms, and then the maids brought up the prepared fruits, food and so on.

Because the main purpose is not to eat, most of them are snacks and light fruits.

After another polite conversation, the topic finally came into contact with today's theme.

"About the chamber of commerce behind you, can Miss Mesia briefly disclose?"

Finally, someone asked curiously.

"Our Chamber of Commerce comes from the remote southern archipelago. Since it has not been established for a long time, it is normal that everyone does not know about it."

...

"In terms of name, everyone can call us 'Black Rabbit'." Because the goods mainly come from the rabbit-ear tribe in the Tisilan Mountains, Lorraine Hill took this name.

"'Black Rabbit'? It sounds like a fairy tale, and it really arouses infinite reverie." The presidents of several large chambers of commerce were thoughtful.

This kind of name has a very casual feeling, but after getting familiar with it, there will be a magical and magical style in it, which is also very consistent with the goods they sell.

It seems to be a fantasy product from a fairy tale wonderland.

Slowly nodding, expressing their approval of the name for the time being, these people began to ask about various details of Lorraine Hill, such as the specific annual output, processing time, transportation costs, loss, whether there is a return service, and how to guarantee the quality. Gold, payment settlement cycle, and a series of issues.

It's not that he deliberately made things difficult for this charming girl, but that it has become a professional instinct for a businessman to understand information and check the authenticity.

Fortunately, Lorraine Hill had prepared for these issues before coming here, and she was indeed the eldest lady of the Chamber of Commerce, so she knew all about it, and when she explained it, she was able to explain it without leaking, which dispelled many people's doubts.

It's not that I haven't encountered such a liar before, but a liar is a liar after all. He has never really run a business, and some details will always show his flaws.

After confirming that there is a corresponding chamber of commerce and property behind this girl, the expressions of these people gradually eased up, and some conditions were relaxed a bit.

"If Miss Mesia agrees, then we are willing to pay 1000 extraordinary gold coins to obtain 8 standard goods."

The so-called standard cargo refers to the agreement just made, with a width of 2.1 meters and a length of 36.6 meters as a horse, and its quality should be at least silver grade. If it is better, the price can be increased appropriately, and the price can be increased by 15% for each liter. That is, the rare silver grade will be 15% more expensive than the former.

"Yes, and for the first transaction, I don't need to charge a deposit. But in the future, at least a 20% deposit must be paid, because the production process of moonlight cloth is lengthy, and we also need to resist risks." Lorraine Hill blinked. , speaking of relatively harsh conditions.

In fact, it's not that I'm short of money, I just want to take advantage of this contest to make a selection, because I sell to anyone, so why not find a better customer.

As for the price increase, we don't need it for the time being. It will be done later when it becomes popular or the market responds better.

Several businessmen present looked at each other and nodded to express their acquiescence. The harsh conditions that Lorraine Hill considered were nothing to them. If the other party didn't mention anything, being too 'kind' would cause their uneasiness.

How can there be a businessman doing a loss-making business? If it is so favorable and kind, I am afraid that there are some ulterior motives.As for the high price, the other party will make more money. This is a trivial matter. Everyone has worked it out step by step in this way. In the future, there will be opportunities to find out the bottom line of each other's prices and production conditions.

After having a beginning, several other chambers of commerce also determined the quantity they needed and signed corresponding contracts.

After finishing these, the banquet entered a relatively relaxed second half.

"Miss Mesia, have you ever been to the empire before? You seem to know a lot about things?" A businessman asked curiously.

"I have visited with my classmates before, but I haven't lived here for a long time, so I know part of the situation."

"Oh, that's it. It seems that Miss Mesia should be very knowledgeable, and I always feel that you have that kind of poetic temperament when you speak." Another person also praised with a smile.

The interest of these people has gradually shifted from the commercial goods just now to this lovely and charming girl.

"Are you taking over from your parents to manage the chamber of commerce now?"
