Chapter 51 51. Anastasia
Border Earl's House.
Roswaal entered the Forbidden Library after a long absence, greeted Betty and began to read a large number of documents. What was recorded here was not only magic, but also the historical events of this world.
Betty read her book quietly and did not disturb Roswaal.
"No, no, not even this one." Roswaal flipped through the documents and didn't get the information he wanted. He felt a little annoyed. At this time, he didn't dress up as a clown or put on makeup.
"Roswaal, you're so noisy. Can you be quieter when reading?" Betty couldn't stand it anymore.
"Betty, I have a question for you. Do you know anything about Pretense?" Roswaal was in a dilemma. He only found out that the Witch of Pretense was an exiled witch. As for the traces she left in history? He found nothing.
"Pretentious? It's a pity that the witch did not leave her mark in history." Betty shook her head.
"Really?" Roswaal flipped through a few more books and indeed did not find any records about pretense, so he left the forbidden library.
His coming here was simple. According to the instructions in the Book of Wisdom, he needed to lead the Archbishop of Vainness to the Holy Land. But since then, he had never seen him again. He didn't even find the two twin maids.
I came to the Forbidden Library to check in order to learn more about Pretense and find the other party, but the documents I found did not show any traces of the activities of this witch and the Archbishop of Sin in history.
The information about other archbishops of sin can basically be found, except for the one about the false pretenses, of which there is no information at all. In the end, Roswaal placed his hopes on the upcoming royal election, and he did not think that the Witch Church would let go of this opportunity.
……
Kakakila, 400 years ago, a Japanese time traveler came here and established his own country, which led to some customs here being similar to those in Japan.
Because it is a country created by time travelers, the class system is not as serious as in local countries. This also creates the basic conditions for merchants. Merchants can trade freely in this country, which is more difficult to develop in other countries.
Merchants brought profits and economic development, which is also one of the strengths of the Kakakila nation. But because of this, the rich are very rich, and the poor areas are particularly poor.
This was Ram's feeling when he first entered Kakakira. Compared with the developed Watergate City, there was some difference.
"Lord Rawl, many people are looking at Ram." Ram felt the gazes of the people around him.
"This is a country with active merchants. We are outsiders, and they will first identify the oil and water in us so as to exploit us." Luo Er has been to this country and has seen that although some places do have simple folk customs, he would not talk about others.
"Lord Roll, Rem..." Ram felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that look before leaving.
"She is not good at these, she is better at housework." After so many days, Luo Er naturally figured out what the two sisters are good at.
"But Rem is very disappointed..." Ram hesitated to speak.
"I am your hired master. I hired you. Things like coaxing your sister should be done by you, not me. Does Ram want Rem to stop worshipping his sister and worship me instead?" Roll looked down at Ram with a playful tone.
"Hmph, Ram can just do things like coaxing his sister by himself." Ram turned his head away and snorted.
"Okay, this time we are here because a Chamber of Commerce wants to cooperate and seek to trade in Watergate City. We are here to negotiate." Luo Er put his hand on Ram's head and rubbed it. Logically, the other party should come to Watergate City to find him, but the other party does not seem to have that condition. Considering the other party's identity, Luo Er intends to go there. "Lord Luo Er, no matter how cute Ram is, you can't do it. We are just an employment relationship." Ram knocked the hand off his head.
"Yes, my lovely little thug." Luo Er refused and insisted on rubbing her pink hair.
Ram frowned, very angry, but helpless, and could only let Roll rub him.
"We're here, Ram." Roll looked at the building not far away, a neon-style wooden house with a gate.
"We're finally here." A werewolf opened the door and said carelessly.
Both Roll and Ram were wearing long robes to block out the witch's aura. Ram bent down slightly, while Roll looked normal.
"Sorry, we should have come here in person. This is a token of our appreciation." Anastasia came out, looking apologetic.
Looking at the extremely pure magic crystals, Luo Er knew that this was the best hospitality gift the other party could offer. After receiving it, he said directly: "Time is money, let's get down to business."
"Let's talk in the living room." Anastasia led the two to the living room. There was no one else around, and there was tea and snacks on the table.
As soon as he sat down, Luo Er took a sip of tea and said, "Since you are looking for cooperation, I can provide the following: first, trade channels between the four countries. You can all see how powerful Watergate City's trade is. Second, establish your own business district in Watergate City. Tourism accounts for half of the city's economy. I don't need to explain what this means."
Anastasia was very serious and did not reply immediately. The man in front of her was a ruthless person who built a platform for merchants to trade and controlled almost all the resources of the merchants.
"So, what can you bring me, or how much can you give me?" Roll leaned on the sofa, and Ram stood quietly behind him.
"Hello, Mr. Shuke. To make this point, please give me five minutes to introduce myself." The girl looked confident and not timid at all, as she described her background and her experience in business in brief sentences.
After listening, Luo Er looked up at the ceiling, glanced at Ram and then closed his eyes. He understood what the other party meant. The other party started from scratch and fought his way out among the many chambers of commerce. His abilities and skills could help him make money.
Ram understood what she meant and said, "Anna, do you want us to cooperate with you as a person? Not with the Chamber of Commerce you belong to?"
"Although it was not Mr. Shuke's reply, I can't help feeling a little disappointed." Anastasia understood that if she wanted to convince this big Buddha, she had to convince the little butler first.
"Ram reminds you that the guest has wasted precious time again."
"No, it's a bit unpleasant. Of course, all the expenses you two in Kakakila for the next two days will be borne by the Hexin Chamber of Commerce." Anastasia stood up. She had just started to develop and was looking at foreign markets. She wanted to reach cooperation in advance to prepare for a rainy day, but she didn't have enough chips now. No matter how beautifully she talked, it would be useless.
"Anastasia, Ram is reminding you that you have wasted the adult's time. He thinks you are not sincere. Now Ram is here to inform you that Watergate Metropolis will officially decide to impose sanctions on you." Ram's tone was calm, neither humble nor arrogant.
"Mr. Shuke, Ms. Ram, if I survive this targeting and go further, I will need all the information about merchants from other countries."
Seeing that Roll and Ram were silent, Anastasia continued, "Now that it's powerful, it shouldn't be sold at the original price."
"Ram recognizes you. If your Chamber of Commerce not only survives but also surpasses others under this offensive, we will do our best to meet your requirements." Ram said all this at a very fast speed.
