As the nobles arrived one after another, the banquet officially began.
Although the number of nobles who arrived was still a dozen less than the number of invitations sent out, Nalant didn't care anymore.
As the host of the banquet, Narant naturally had to go on stage to deliver a speech before the banquet started.
And he also took this opportunity to take the stage to tell everyone the main purpose of holding the banquet.
"Everyone, I am very honored to invite you all. Although I, Narant, do not belong to the nobility of the Nok Empire, I have longed for the Nok Empire for a long time!"
"This trip to the capital of Knock allowed me to see the prosperity of the capital. What's more, I didn't expect that my wine would be recognized by everyone."
"Here, I would like to thank the nobles of the Nok Empire for their recognition."
"Of course, I also need to apologize for this. That is because the production of wine is not high at present, so the supply of wine in Knock King's capital exceeds the demand."
"However, after several months of development, wine production has gradually increased, so things like this will definitely improve greatly in the future."
"And the Nok Empire is too far away from the Storm Territory. In order to make it easier for everyone to purchase wine, I decided to hand over the supply of wine to the Frank family!"
"In this way, whether you nobles want to purchase wine in large quantities or in small quantities, you can come to the Frank family!"
Nalant stood on the high platform and spoke to the nobles with a smile on his face. Although his words were high-sounding, they were just right.
Not only did he praise the nobles of the Nok Empire, but he also expressed what he needed to explain.
"Leave it to the Frank family?"
After listening to Nalant's words, all the nobles expressed their surprise.
It’s not that I think there’s anything wrong with what Nalant did.
Rather, I feel that the Frank family is really lucky and believe that its rise is just around the corner.
Because wine is now popular throughout the Knock Empire, as long as the Frank family is not stupid and knows how to cooperate, they can definitely prosper with wine.
"Baron Nalant, what about the price of this wine? Will it be more expensive than purchasing it from your Storm Territory?" At this time, a noble asked.
"Well, I have already thought about this issue. The price will definitely be more expensive than purchasing from the Storm Territory, but it also depends on the quantity you purchase!"
"If the quantity is small and is just for drinking by yourself, the price will be the same as the normal sales price."
"But if it is purchased in large quantities, then I hereby assure you that the price will never be more than two gold coins more expensive than purchasing from the Storm Territory!"
"You can also negotiate with the Frank family yourself in this regard, and it is not impossible to even lower the price!"
"As for the price increase of these two gold coins, everyone can understand that even if you send your own caravan, it will still cost a lot of money!" Nalant answered with a smile.
"Is it just two more gold coins? That's okay!" The nobles immediately breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It's just one or two more gold coins, which they can completely accept.
With the current popularity of wine, the price can actually be increased slightly.
Moreover, in fact, even if Lion Nalant opens his mouth, as long as they want wine, there is nothing they can do.
But now that Nalant did not do this, all the nobles couldn't be happier.
"Okay, I won't waste your time anymore. Please have fun. If you have any ideas about wine, you can go to Mr. Bauer!" After saying that, Nalant didn't delay any more and got off directly.
On the high platform.
He was completely escorting the Frank family at this banquet.
Narant is not stupid either. Even if the Frank family's business can continue due to the protection of the Miller family, it will definitely be stymied secretly by the Dolly family.
In order to avoid being secretly targeted by the Dolly family and the second prince Nadel, handing the wine to the Frank family is the best solution.
As a general wine distributor, I am afraid that few nobles can refuse to cooperate with the Frank family. This can represent golden gold coins, and which nobleman can resist the temptation of gold coins.
Even if some people do not choose to cooperate with the Frank family because they are worried about the Dolly family and the second prince Dale.
But if they don't do it, there must be other nobles who do.
It is conceivable that with the help of wine, it will not be long before the Frank family can re-weave a network of relationships.
Sure enough, not long after Nalant stepped down, Ball, a country noble who had been regarded as a country bumpkin in the past, immediately became popular, and many nobles gathered around him.
"Narant, thank you!" At this time, Natasha came over, her beautiful eyes full of tenderness.
"Don't thank me. I can make money whether I sell it to these nobles or to you, the Frank family!" Nalant didn't take it seriously. It was only natural to stand up for his woman.
If you can't even protect your own woman, everything else will be in vain.
"Narant, you will always be like this. I'm afraid I will never be able to escape your grasp in this life!" Natasha naturally understood that it was not as simple as Narant said.
Although the price of wine supplied to him by the Frank family has not been reduced, if such distribution rights are given to other nobles, they will definitely get a lot of benefits and favors.
In fact, even if scattered noble caravans are sent to the Storm Territory to purchase goods, it can bring additional consumption income to the Storm Territory.
"Come on Natasha, let's go dancing. I originally promised you last night that I would continue to dance with you, but then I was delayed because of Prince Dale!"
"Um!"
Immediately, Narant hugged Natasha and started dancing.
The banquet ended immediately in a happy atmosphere with all the nobles.
…
Not long after Nalant hosted a banquet for a group of nobles, the incident quickly spread.
It was not because Nalant had such a good reputation that he invited so many nobles, but because of the wine distribution rights.
Wine trading is now considered the most important matter for all nobles. When it was learned that Nalant had handed over the wine from the Knock Empire to the Frank family, there was an uproar in the Knock King's capital.
The reason is very simple, that is because Marquis Bick of the Dolly family and his eldest son Cady are not idle today, visiting many nobles, and then discussing the matter of isolating the Frank family.
Originally, many nobles had agreed not to make any transactions with the Frank family for the sake of the Dolly family and the second prince Dale.
This is even the reason why the dozen nobles who received the invitation did not attend the banquet held by Nalant.
However, these nobles are now filled with regret, because they have definitely been blacklisted by Nalant.
As for the other nobles who had not received the invitation, they were thankful that they had not received the invitation. Otherwise, if they had been invited but did not attend, they would have really missed the wine business in the future.
The Knock Empire is so big, as long as the supply of wine is sufficient, no matter where they sell it, they can get a share of the pie.
In this way, these nobles who had promised the Dolly family not to do business with the Frank family sent their subordinates to the Dolly family one after another, and then told them in a very subtle way that they were really not prepared to do business with the Frank family.
But the wine was so delicious that they couldn't help but want to buy it.
Of course, they also promised the Dolly family that they would only trade wine with the Dolly family and not conduct other transactions.
As for whether the Dolly family believes it or not, they definitely don’t!
"Asshole! These unscrupulous guys, didn't they promise not to do business with those country bumpkins in the morning? Now they sent someone to tell them that they would only do wine business with the Frank family!"
"Father, what should we do now? When I visited other noble manors just now, those noble servants said that their master was out today and was not in the manor!"
Kadi also looked livid. They had originally visited a group of nobles in the Royal Capital of Nok in the morning, and they all greeted them warmly and extremely politely.
But after the news about the wine came out, no nobles were willing to see them anymore.
These nobles are either out of town, or they are sick and unable to see guests.
As a result, the plan they had discussed yesterday with Prince Dale to suppress the Frank family had naturally come to nothing.
"What else can we do? Don't provoke that Frank family again!" Marquis Bick gritted his teeth, but finally gave in.
It was already impossible to do anything openly, and now they were even more unable to do it secretly.
Many nobles have already sided with the Frank family over wine.
Although the Dolly family can occupy a place in the Nok Empire with the help of Prince Dale, they do not dare to cause public anger.
Especially when it comes to blocking other people's financial opportunities.
He was sure that if he and others dared to continue attacking the Frank family.
A group of nobles who cooperate with the Frank family will definitely unite to cause trouble for them.
Cady's expression immediately became distorted when he heard this. Their dignified Marquis Dolly family was completely defeated by such a country bumpkin noble.
…
Time turned and it was two days later.
"Set off!"
At the gate of King Nok's capital, a convoy of dozens of carriages slowly began to set off.
To be continued...
