Chapter 38 Appearance
Today's Lalante is still a bustling commercial city.
However, the newsboys are very happy today because the newspapers have been sold very fast in the past two days.
Newsboys don't know why, because if they could read, they wouldn't be newsboys. People who can read can be apprentices anywhere, so why bother being newsboys?
But some clever newsboys have summed up some experience. Every time newspapers sell very quickly, something big has happened.
It was the same this time, because the newspaper devoted an entire page to a news.
The Hall of Radiance will launch a set of dragon scale armor, fifteen vials of dragon blood, and many rare materials at a regular auction this week.
The nobles in the city, the top adventurers, the leaders of the chamber of commerce, or others, in short, anyone who thought they were rich enough couldn't help but pay attention to this news.
Those are dragon blood and dragon scale armor, the most legendary equipment and materials in many brave stories! In addition to the extremely high value and use of dragon blood itself, the more important set of dragon scale armor!
Moreover, the seller's name was also highly publicized, a scholar with mysterious origins named Lucian.
His deeds have also been spread by gangsters everywhere, including his close relationship with Urathil, his rich net worth, and the mysterious but powerful forces behind him.
Suddenly, Lucian's name suddenly spread to countless people's ears.
——————————
Everything was so interconnected and logical that Lu En even doubted whether it was a coincidence.
But it couldn't be a coincidence, so he rubbed his temples with a headache, closed his eyes and meditated for a while, and suddenly smelled a fragrance.
It has a meaty aroma, like beef roasted with pepper and plenty of spices.
When he opened his eyes, he saw the landlady serving him a plate.
"Thinking takes a lot of brain power. Why don't you eat something first and listen to what I have to say?" The landlady has a gentle temperament and is not as smart, lively or aggressive as Urathil.
"What I'm saying is that I was just minding my own business. I'm sorry. Please tell me." Lu En did not refuse, but took the plate, picked up the attached knife and fork and started eating.
The moment you bite into it, the gravy spreads in your mouth. The meat is smooth and tender, and the taste is quite good. It has a strong aroma, and the umami and salty taste are just right. Although it is not as good as Kara's cooking, it can still be considered delicious.
If an ordinary tavern could do this, its business would be quite booming.
The proprietress looked at Lu En. The not-so-young widow nodded to the old man next to her. The old man indicated that he understood, walked out of the room, and closed the tavern at the same time, guarding the outside.
After closing the door, the landlady sat down opposite Lu En: "Because of this, we cannot accept you. After this, I will kick you out."
Lu En swallowed a piece of meat: "So, you need me to be an internal response? Because I am dissatisfied with Urathil? To be honest, this is unlikely. The other party has promised me a lot of benefits in exchange, and I have also
The dragon's blood was given to them for safekeeping."
Urathil's judgment is very correct. Making a decision just because you hate someone will definitely not last long. The only direction is interest. Even trust itself cannot be trusted, because reputation is nothing more than
It is just a certain manifestation of interests. The so-called "reputation" refers to your ability to continuously bring benefits to both parties for a long time. These are all things that can be quantified into chips.
Everything is just a relationship of interest. Urathil is very familiar with and agrees with this. No wonder this heavenly apostle will be kicked down from the heaven. This kind of thinking is not feasible in the heaven and will be hung on the stake.
"No, I don't intend to ask you, sir, to give up your own interests and do dangerous things like being a spy for us. I just want to have a frank talk with you, sir. After all, maybe we can also do business. You have never
Hiding his whereabouts, spreading his existence through the hands of the Hall of Glow, and even openly promoting the existence of dragon blood, isn't this just beckoning to us? Sir, he hopes that he will be exposed to us as soon as possible
In front of us, you can use this to mediate between us and the Hall of Radiance to make profits?" the landlady asked seriously.
Compared with Urathil's style of pretending to be intimate, being weird, and then suddenly surprising you, Lu En preferred the boss's wife's sincere conversation, so his attitude became much better. He said: "In the beginning,
This is indeed the idea, but Urathil is too aggressive, and now I am considering other plans."
"That's true. Urathil's attitude towards dealing with things is very disgusting. She likes to use a careless attitude to make the parties involved break out in cold sweats. She usually uses deception and assassination to deal with things. She is definitely not a very good person.
The partner for cooperation." The landlady agreed with Lu En's statement.
On this point, Lu En refuted the boss lady's statement: "She is just annoying, but as a partner, she is a good choice."
"Urahil will never betray when the interests are consistent, and will never make decisions based on personal preferences. As long as she can keep her interests tied to her, then she is the best partner and does not need to take care of interpersonal relationships.
A person who can do whatever he wants without harming his interests and has no moral constraints is far more suitable than the United Chamber of Commerce, which has a lot to worry about and has a lot of ties to."
The landlady nodded and agreed, but then she added: "Of course, because she is not a human being and has no humanity at all, but we are different."
"We have humanity, we are human beings, and the United Chamber of Commerce will not only look at interests. Urathil will abandon you without hesitation after you are no longer useful, but we will never give up on our companions. Relationships are far stronger than interests.
connect."
"I agree with this, but I don't think I can establish a reliable relationship with you." Lu En said.
And I'm not a human being, I'm a monster... At the same time, he couldn't help but curse.
"I'm just mentioning this. After all, sir, you're not just here to sell dragon blood, are you? Judging from our intelligence, your negotiation with Urathil also includes the construction of a new building in the Blue River area.
A workshop, right?" The landlady mentioned this.
Lu En was not surprised that the other party would know, it would be better to say that he actively wanted the other party to know.
Ever since he asked Urathil to broadcast the auction of dragon blood, he has already stood in front of all the forces in Lalante.
Lu En heard the implication, put down his knife and fork, and asked directly: "So, what does the boss lady want to say to me?"
"The previous one was just to show you our attitude. In fact, what I really want to tell you is very simple. We will provide you with the craftsmen, but you don't want to kill my masons for Urasil. I know
She has a former old master in her hands, and you will attack the Stonemasons Association for him. In that case, the United Chamber of Commerce will really classify you as an enemy." The landlady said.
