The supreme sovereign system 231 Transactions with Olvier

"As I was saying, I came here to talk about the routes of commerce between our two towns, as you know, we lack a lot of resources, however, what we don't lack, is money, so, here is the deal I am proposing, I want to make a contract in which you, Peringrer Town, assure us that you will send us your goods in not more than three months, as for us, Wastleland Valley, promise to paid fifty percent of the paid in advance and paid the other fifty percent when the goods are delivered, in addition, I propose an undirect commerce between both towns using Tulip town as an intermediate point, don't worry about the breach issues, not only you have my word as a lord, in addition, we will have the authorities in Tulip acting as witness of our transactions" Said Alfonso.

Oliver who was sitting in front of him, listening with caution.

"By the looks of it, it doesn't seem, that he wants to impose unreasonable demands" Though Carlo.

Oliver, on the other hand, was a little perplexed.

"This Alfonso Lockheart could easily demand more, and we won't be able to do much, why isn't he doing that?" Though Oliver.

"I… think is reasonable, however, to prepare the goods, we will need some time, the time also depends on what you which in specific" Said Oliver.

"My land suffers from hunger, Mr.Oliver, of course, what we need the most, is food; the conditions of my land makes its hard to have animals, that's why, products like milk are hard to get, that's why, I want you to send us animals, to be more concrete, I want cows and chickens, I know that you have treat with other towns and you have channels to provide us the amount that we require" Said Alfonso.

Oliver though for some time before whispering something to his eunuch, who was at his right side.

"I can indeed give you what you need, however, the cost of the food of the animals and everything must be taken in account, plus, there is a possibility that the cows dies on the journey, that's why, we can't assure that the animals will get in perfect state" Said the man by the side of Oliver.

"I can't take responsibility for the delivery, however, I can pay and additional fee for the transport, however, there won't be a tolerance for bad goods, you give me a total and you give me that total, in optimal conditions of course, I won't accept a single cow or chicken missing, if not, the one who will have to answer for that, would be you" Said Alfonso with firmness.

"Mr. Lockheart, let's be reasonable, although the trip is not long, the travel to Tulip takes a least a month, on the journey, a lot of things could happen, and there is also the fact that there are thieves on the way" Said the man.

"And that's why I am paying an extra fee, of course, If you want to, I can send my man to escort you to Wasteland Valley, I won't charge you for the protection, however, you will need to pay for the food of my people, if an accident might to occur on the way, that would be on my responsibility" Said Alfonso.

"This will be the best choice; the only good job is the one that you do it yourself" Though Alfonso.

"I agree to that, I will give you all the stock I have available to sell, however, I have a counter proposition, I heard that, in your town, there is a person who sells something called 'Ambrosia', correct?" Said Oliver.

Alfonso was surprised.

"How do you know that?" Asked Alfonso.

"When something is good, the rumors fly, someone from Tulip town spread the rumor that there is a heavenly medicine in Wasteland Valley; in the current time, there is a disease that is killing people in all Leitol, that's' why, the rumor of this medicine has begun to enter the ears of important people, however, nobody dears to go find it because is in such faraway place, not to mention…" Said Oliver while looking at Alfonso with some fear.

"What?" Asked Alfonso.

"I-I don't want to say it" Said Oliver.

"What is it?" Asked Alfonso.

Oliver looked back at the man, who also denied with a pledging face, however, after the looking at Oliver, he knew that he couldn't dodge the bullet, he entrusted his soul to the gods, he opened his mouth.

"Be-because, that's the residence of the, mm mad cri-cri-crippled prince" Said the man.

When Alfonso heard what the man said, he almost couldn't stop himself from laughing.

"Crippled madman" Alfonso repeated the phrase in an intend to stop the laugh that was escaping from his lips.

However, to everyone on the room, it sounded that Alfonso was, once again, entering his "mad mode"

""It was good knowing you, you protected the lord, your services will be known for generations to come"" Though all the people in the room while looking at the poor man with pity on their eyes.

The man looked at Alfonso, who was grabbing his stomach, and though this

"He is probably thinking in ripping out my stomach, ahh, such a short life" Though the man.

Funny, right?

"Well, that's quite the nickname you all gave me" Alfonso finally calmed down and said to everyone.

The man, after seeing that Alfonso wasn't planning to do something, make a sight of relieve.

"Anyway, I indeed have 'Ambrosia', in fact, I have one with me right now" Said Alfonso.

He took out a small bottle from his pocket and an orange liquid could be seeing in a small bottle.

Although the 'Ambrosia' didn't do anything for Alfonso anymore, he still carried with him just in case.

"Oh! So, this is the famous magical elixir" Said Oliver while looking at the bottle.

"It's indeed magical, its color is very unusual" Said Carlo.

"I want to receive this medicine instead of the money, what do you say?" Asked Oliver.

Alfonso was planning to sell the Ambrosia, of course, however, he originally though that it will take him some time before he could sell it, after all, it was hard to introduce a new product on the market.

"I agree, however, I will say it right now, this Ambrosia doesn't cure you from the disease" Said Alfonso.

"I know that, but it could be used as a pain killer, right?" Asked Oliver.

"Well, sure, I guess" Said Alfonso.

"Then, that's enough, the worse thing of this disease it's the intense pain that the patience suffer from it, if it doesn't kill you itself, the disease would make you wish you were dead, I believe that there would be a lot of people willing to buy this medicine" Said Oliver.

"I get it" Said Alfonso.

"However, not a lot of people will be able to buy it" Added Alfonso.

"Bad luck on them" Said the man besides Oliver.

Alfonso didn't commend on what the man said.

"No matter where you are or when, I guess this how things are meant to be" Though Alfonso.

The conversation ended like that, not wituoth Alfonso a huge of amount of plant of tea for his personal collection.

"It's a little bit late, how about both of you stay for the night" Said Oliver.

Alfonso looked at Artemis who nodded.

"Sure, I will be imposing myself them" Said Alfonso.

The maids on the manor arranged everything for Alfonso and Artemis, they prepared two rooms one opposite to the other for them to sleep.

Everything went smoothly, Alfonso and Artemis were invited to dinner, however, Alfonso said that he was too tired and he excuse himself.

Artemis also didn't go along.

The room of Alfonso was twice the bigger that his own room in Wasteland Valley.

"And this is a guess room, Oliver's room must be huge" Though Alfonso.

"Aren't you going to sleep?" Asked Alfonso.

"I don't sleep, remember?" Asked Artemis.

"You can rest though, Demeter usually close her eyes and doesn't opened them until the next day" Said Alfonso.

"She slacks too much" Said Artemis.

"Now that I think about it, if you don't sleep, what do you do in your room at night?" Asked Alfonso.

"I do mentally train, in order to gain my powers back, I need a lot of training, contrary to Demeter or you yourself, my powers aren't that great" Said Artemis.

Alfonso was impressed, he chatted a little bit with Artemis and then he turned out the lights and went to sleep.

"…Artemis"

"What is it?"

"Is really awkward when you stared me like that went, I am trying to sleep" Said Alfonso.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
