Lord of Rot

Chapter 33 Business
"After some research by some pharmacists in Ironstone, it was found that this pill contains sugar, flour, and a little bit of other things, and this is what makes men more energetic"

The man stood beside Becky, with his hand inserted through her collar, and his nose touched the girl's delicate cheek: "They can't be sure what it is, and that's the secret of the "mad cow"."

"Can you extract that thing?"

"I'm afraid not." The man shook his head, "That thing is like water soaked into flour and sugar."

"Don't underestimate a Baron" Becky was not surprised by this result.

……

Li Qi sat in the study of Iron Stone Castle, looking at the girl on Baron Simon's chair opposite.

"Miss Simon"

"You can call me Becky, Sir, we should be friends after that ball?" She smiled, controlling the distance between the two, instead of releasing her charm casually like in the ball.

Like a well-cultivated intellectual lady.

But Li Qi really wanted to complain, do noble ladies like to use this method to get closer?

"Alright Becky." Li Qi nodded, "I don't know why you are looking for me?"

"I heard that a strange pill comes from a pig collar, are you looking for a buyer for it?" She said straight to the point: "I want to cooperate with you."

An aristocratic girl, she talks to herself about male enhancement drugs, and she is so straight-balled that she wants to talk about business.

Is she a fool?

The reputation of the noble lady is... well, she doesn't have a good reputation.

Li Qi looked at the beautiful young girl in front of her. Of course, she couldn't be a fool, but being a woman gave her the convenience of being straightforward.

The pursuit of "face" by the nobles is even more serious.

Li Qi guessed that Baron Sparks didn't understand Becky's actions, because the baron didn't care about this kind of business, and the iron ore could make him one of the richest knights in East Gorge.

Why does a 'heartbeat' want to make money?

Never mind her, she has to make money anyway.

"If Becky is willing to cooperate with me, of course I would like it." Li Qi nodded. He was always annoyed by the Griffin matter, but he had to wait until he finished processing the pills and got the money to buy something before he could go back.

Doing business with the daughter of the town's ruler will make the deal easier.

Although he originally planned to negotiate business directly with the brothel owners and deliver the goods to their door.

"What's your estimated selling price?" she asked.

"You already have an estimated price in mind, Becky."

"10 Bronze Stars" she said: "Although it has some uses, it can only last for a period of time at most. If you don't want to spoil the fun, you have to buy a few more. No one is willing to spend too much money on it."

"No." Li Qi shook his head, although he didn't know why the other party knew that a pill could only last for a while, could it be that she had used it?

Still, he said: "Men will pay a lot of money for it."

"5 Silver Moon" He raised his right hand, stretched out his slender fingers, as if showing palm prints to the girl.

"You must be joking," Becky said. "If the asking price is so high, I'm afraid some people would rather never come to Ironstone City."

"Four silver moons, the output is very small," Li Qi said.

"One silver moon" Becky stared at Li Qi's handsome face and said, "If I have the possibility to become the baroness of Porcupine Castle, three silver moons are also fine. I will give it all to you, including me."

Li Qi shivered, he didn't want to catch himself because of a business: "2 silver moons, I don't care how much you sell, I only want 2 silver moons for each, you know the value."

It's worth it to exchange two silver moons for an undefeated myth!

Especially when there is no similar drug in this world, he is the only one.

In fact, Li Qi's psychological price is 1 silver month and 1 copper star, or 1 silver month and 5 copper stars, which is just a little higher than what Becky offered. It is because the cost is too low, and he is not sure about the price. , No matter how I feel that I am making money.

Moreover, the price is too high, and many people are afraid that they will not be willing to pay more for it, but Becky accepted the price easily, and he began to ask himself if the asking price was too low, maybe 2 silver months and 5 bronze stars would be enough promise?
But 2 Yinyue sells a pill, I am afraid that very few people can accept it. The nobles can ignore this price, but most of the people who visit brothels are ordinary people who earn a little money. live, but the concept of spending four silver moons is completely different.

Is the other party deliberately acting like a business novice trying to make money on his own, in order to paralyze himself?

No one should deliberately give more money to numb themselves.

"How much of this stuff can you make every month?"

"It's hard to guarantee." Li Qi said hesitantly: "Because the master said that making this kind of thing is very troublesome and the process is cumbersome."

Kneading noodles, kneading them into small pills, and then steaming them in a pot is really troublesome, he thought to himself.

You can make more than a dozen pots a day.

Becky agreed with him that this strange drug was destined to take a lot of effort.

But Li Qi added: "About 300 pieces can be produced in a month."

"300?" Becky frowned. According to the number of tourists in Iron Stone City, this amount may only last for a dozen days.

Becky said, "Perhaps I can send to Porcupine Collar to help the Master."

She is using her status as a woman to play a scoundrel. If she were a jazz, she would definitely not be able to openly say that she sent someone to steal her teacher, but Li Qi felt that she was more reliable than at the dance last night, and money was more important than hypocrisy. really.

"Hehe, then there's no need, but if I press more, 600 should be fine," Li Qi said.

doubled?
Becky felt that the country baron was not telling the truth. From his calm expression, it could be seen that these numbers were far from the limit.

"Li Qi, I know that the development of porcupine collar is not going very smoothly, and if these things are replaced by silver moon, it will save you a lot of trouble." She said: "The master is in your territory, he will definitely agree to help You, too, are helping the porcupine collar."

"900." Li Qi gritted his teeth and said, "It's really the limit. After I go back, I will definitely waste days and nights of saliva trying to persuade him to work overtime."

Another 300 coins were raised, and Becky wanted to increase the price, but seeing Li Qi's difficult situation, she finally closed her mouth.

900 pieces is almost enough, and there is no need to guarantee that everyone can buy it.

Their business was thus settled, and the two parties would sign a contract under the balance of the heavenly father. If one of them broke the contract, he would be punished.

If the tide of magic can really bring miracles, Li Qi might be a little more careful.

900 pills a month, the biggest cost is sugar and flour. The cost price of a 10-pound bag of flour is around 35-40 copper stars. If you don’t use fine flour, the cost can be lower, and the price of sugar is more expensive, but He can reduce the sugar part without pursuing the taste, or even remove it completely.

2 silver months, one month's income is about 1800 silver months, which is about 7~9 gold days.

The porcupine collar's harvest this year didn't add up to that much.

There are hundreds of plants in the crypt, and he found that if you don't uproot them, but just cut off the leaves of the grass of life, they will continue to grow like garlic sprouts, but the growth cycle may be slightly slower.

After the baron left for a while, someone opened the door.

"Miss." The maid came in: "Sir has given us the bag of pills, and the payment is due."

Becky said: "Find some pharmacists, chefs can do it, let them cut each pill into 10 small pieces, coat them with flour and sugar and make them the original size, and send them to various brothels, and tell the bosses that each pill sells for 5 pieces. [-] Bronze Stars."
