Flora asked, subconsciously looking down at her skirt, then lowering her voice with a blush on her face. She was very curious about this:
"You like girls' stockings, don't you?"
Shade immediately defended his reputation:
"Of course not, how could I be that kind of person? I did give her advice, but I just gave her ideas to develop new chemical fiber materials. This product is her own idea and was born because of the new material."
So the witch with eyeshadow smiled and squinted her eyes and asked again:
"Then knight, since the appearance of those beautiful fabrics has nothing to do with you, then why were you so familiar with those products just now?"
Under the long skirt, her legs wrapped in black fabric gently rubbed each other:
"Who has worn it for you? What else have you done with it?"
"Flora~"
Shade whispered, looked around, and continued to lower his voice embarrassedly:
"Now is not the time to talk about this."
"Yes, yes, you always make sense."
She held Shade's arm again without hesitation and leaned slightly against him:
"Want to see me dress for once?"
The voice was so soft that even Shade wasn't sure if he was hallucinating.
【Not an auditory hallucination.】
"We'll talk about this later."
He continued to speak rather embarrassedly, looking in the direction of Sir Wayne who was talking to his business partners. Although Sir Wayne had a hidden identity, he was still quite successful as a businessman, and his commodity shipping business radiated throughout Carson.
Rick's east, so he was also surrounded by many people just now.
At this time, seeing that there were fewer people around him, Shade took Flora and walked over. Sir Wayne seemed to have not brought a female companion. Seeing Shade coming, he politely stretched out his hand to shake Shade's hand.
.
[He is not a demon, but there is a time curse on him.]
"She" said in his ear, and Xia De introduced himself with an unchanging expression.
And when I heard that Shade was actually able to open up the export channels in southern Delarion, and even obtained the agency rights for goods that are now in demand in the capital, the man was over 1.85 meters tall, even taller than Shade.
Some businessmen were very interested and said:
"Of course I'm interested in collaborating."
He led Shade and the two of them to the window of the banquet hall to prevent others from hearing the conversation:
"As long as your goods are exported through the eastern part of Kasenlik, even if you want to take the mountain pass of the Rommel Mountains at the Sikal Mountains and directly enter Fort Midhill, I can still find a carriage team to transport it.
We can discuss the price further, Mr. Holmes. In fact, I am more interested in the business itself than the channels."
Seeing his expression as if he had something to discuss, Xia De shook his head:
"The source of this business is a commercial secret. If you want me to introduce you to the princess of Willondale, I have no way to do it. It was a young man under me who used his body to get through to the female officer under the princess.
It’s only through the road that I can get these product quotas.”
Flora on the side tried hard not to show a strange expression, while Shade whispered to Sir Wayne:
"But everyone now knows that the main reason for the shortage of this product is insufficient production, so the distribution volume in the eastern part of Kasenlik is so low, even much lower than that in the Moon Bay area. Sir Wayne, actually I came to see you
You, I want to ask if you have thought about it."
Xia De lowered his voice, and the middle-aged businessman raised his eyebrows:
"You want to transfer the quota that was originally destined for southern Delrayon to the eastern market of Carsonlik?"
"No, no, this is a violation of the agency agreement I signed at Willondale."
Shade shook his head hurriedly:
"I can only sell these goods in southern Delrayon, and the prices are set above. But in this way, don't those beautiful girls and ladies in the eastern part of our country become very pitiful?"
He tried to keep his tone normal:
"While beautiful ladies in the capital and even Yuewan can pursue fashion and trends, they can only hold outdated magazines and sigh at the introductions and blurry photos. This is inappropriate."
"so?"
Sir Wayne asked tentatively, and Shade sighed:
“So we have to consider the mood of the ladies in the east too, right?
I recently accidentally discovered that there seemed to be some loopholes in the contract I signed, I mean the interesting part. Although I promised to only sell those goods in southern Delrayon, otherwise I would face high fines, but
I have no control over where customers who purchase items put them.”
Now Sir Wayne understood that Mr. Holmes, who looked young but was probably very popular with girls, wanted to make domestic money without violating the contract:
"But do you have that much supply? I think the market in southern Delrayon is enough to swallow your goods."
Shade glanced at him:
"Since I want to take care of the ladies in the eastern part of the country, of course I won't pay for it myself, so if someone really exports them for domestic sales and brings them back to the country, then the price should be higher, right?"
Now Sir Wayne understood completely, and he laughed:
"So Mr. Holmes, you want to cooperate with me to meet the needs of these novel goods for those ladies in our country who are disappointed that they can't buy the goods? You are really a qualified gentleman, but you are right, plus
Money is what you deserve, after all, you can’t just do good deeds, you can also do charity, and all the reputation falls on you.”
Shade nodded with satisfaction:
"So I want to confirm first, Sir Wayne, I have a lot of goods, and I want to complete the first batch of 'sales' before the outbreak of the Winter War. Only after I get the funds can I continue to clear the checkpoints, otherwise there will be trouble with subsequent exports.
It may be larger. Do you have such a large amount of funds to cooperate with me?"
He stretched out his hand and deliberately reported an astronomical figure that the other party could never come up with:
"If the transaction is made, we must conduct it in Delrayon - can the cash of 300,000 gold pounds be withdrawn at once?"
Sir Wayne did show hesitation, but he did not give an immediate answer:
"Can I first confirm the contract you signed with His Highness?"
It's not like he has never encountered a scammer before, so of course he has to be careful and cautious about this kind of thing.
Flora looked at Shade again, and Shade laughed:
"Who would bring that kind of thing with them? They are all in my safe, but I brought this one. This is a truly high-end product that is not on sale and only appears among the upper-class ladies of Willondale. Ordinary
No one has even heard of it."
As he spoke, he pulled out a pair of stockings from the pocket of his formal coat. Of course, they were brand new. The fabric was not only lighter and thinner than the products on the market, but also felt better, and even had a finer texture on the surface of the fabric.
The pattern embroidered with "silk thread" is a special craft that cannot be forged.
Flora and Sir Wayne looked even more surprised. It was obviously rarer for people to put a pair of women's stockings in their formal pockets when going out for a tea party than to go out with a contract.
However, Sir Wayne inspected the fabric and praised it:
"To be honest, I have only heard about this kind of high-end products, and this is the first time I have actually seen them. We can discuss the details of the cooperation later, but I am definitely interested in this business. As for the funds."
He thought for a while and gritted his teeth:
"I definitely can't come up with three hundred thousand gold pounds in cash, and I bet that not many people in the country can come up with it. Mr. Holmes, if you don't ask for cash, I can use other methods to verify the capital, but
You also need to bring the contract for me to check."
Shade nodded slightly, that was why he was talking about this:
"For what? Let me say it first. Although I am very optimistic about the arms business in the next few years, I dare not get involved in this. You have to have a brain to spend gold pounds and krona."
Sir Wayne laughed at the joke:
"Of course not arms, I mean what about antiques?"
Flora didn't know that Shade had discovered Sir Wayne's time curse from the beginning, so she didn't guess Shade's intention until then.
Shade pretended to be surprised:
"Whenever a war starts, the antique market is not in good shape. The most valuable thing now is gold, and those cuties stacked up in blocks are the best at preserving their value."
"I don't have gold that's been coded in blocks, but what I'm talking about is gold antiques, and there are some oil paintings with clear signatures."
Sir Wayne continued that he was very enthusiastic about this business, but Shade asked hesitantly:
“Is the source reliable?”
"Mr. Holmes, since we are doing this kind of business, everyone knows the origin.
I'll give you my business card. If you have the intention of continuing to cooperate, just write to me and I can take you to see part of my collection first. Although I can't take out the cash, the value of those antiques is definitely enough.
Of course, according to our rules, antiques must be priced at 70% of the market valuation, and you can bring your own appraiser."
Shade took the business card:
"How do I remember that according to the rules, the price of this kind of antique is 50% to 60% of the market price?"
The two chatted for a while, and then Sir Wayne politely said "I won't disturb you" and left. He really wanted to make this business, and he was also very optimistic about the market for products that no one could imitate so far. If he could
It would be even better to use this to establish a relationship with the rumored Princess Margaret.
But there are tricks to doing business, and Sir Wayne didn't want to appear particularly eager, so he asked Shade to think about it and contact him.
After he walked away, Xia De took the business card in his hand and said to the gray-black haired lady:
"It went quite smoothly. Although the original purpose has not been achieved, at least the person who can travel back and forth has been found, hasn't it?"
