Chapter 150: 148 Chamber of Commerce visit
Translator: 549690339
It wasn’t long before Link returned.
Not only that, but he had also brought some visitors from the Land of the Soaring Dragon.
Through Saru’s notification, Otto met two human females in the council chamber.
According to Link’s introduction, the tall and graceful blonde beauty in the dark open-chest dress was Lady Bauhinia.
She said she could also be called Elsa.
The other one, looking very capable in her tight-fitting leather attire and sporting short red hair, was her attendant, Heel.
Contrary to her somewhat innocent appearance, Heel was a powerful warrior.
In Otto’s perception, if Link hadn’t already transformed into a Dragonborn werewolf, he might not even be a match for this cute girl.
Even when facing a fifteen-meter-long, ferocious-looking adult dragon, Lady Bauhinia and her attendant Heel showed remarkable composure.
At least compared to the helplessly frightened bearded Lait men Otto had seen before, they were much more composed.
After some simple self-introductions, Sofia contacted Otto quietly through the communication scale.
“Big dumb dragon, this so-called Lady Bauhinia is not the real one, but is disguised by someone else using a cunning magical technique.”
Almost anything related to magic could hardly escape Sofia’s eyes.
Upon hearing this, Otto couldn’t help but feel disappointed as he looked at the fake Lady Bauhinia.
Originally, when he learned that Link had brought back a significant business owner, Otto was somewhat surprised.
But the surprise quickly turned into excitement, as this was an excellent opportunity. If he forcibly engraved a blood covenant onto this human, she would have to work for him unconditionally forever.
Understandably, it would become much easier to purchase any goods from Black Gold City in the future.
However, it was apparent that Lady Bauhinia, who could manage such a large business, was no fool.
She wouldn’t risk her life to personally come to the Nolan Forest, filled with evil monsters, based on a few words from her distant relative, Link.
At this thought, Otto amusingly looked at the silver werewolf standing nearby. The young Link was probably still in the dark about this.
Even if the real Lady Bauhinia didn’t come, this fake one had brought ample supplies to the Land of the Soaring Dragon.
Such as the continental map and various slaves that Otto requested, and even many exquisite women’s products, which pleased Sofia greatly.
As Otto lay on the Blackstone Platform covered in treasures, he stared at the two human females from a distance and said in a deep voice, “Humans, what is the purpose of your visit to the Land of the Soaring Dragon?”
The tall blonde woman gave Otto an elegant aristocratic curtsey, and then chuckled, “Honorable Silver Dragon Lord, if you may, I would be honored if you called me Elsa.”
Although she didn’t get any response, Fake Elsa still laughed lightly, “Honorable Silver Dragon Lord, our choice to visit the Land of the Soaring Dragon has a simple reason.
We are merchants and will not miss any opportunity to do business.”
“Doing business with a dragon?”
Otto chuckled, “Should I say that you are courageous, or completely unafraid of death?”
Fake Elsa laughed, “Because we trust Link, he and I are both members of the honorable Bauhinia Family.
In his description, the great Silver Dragon Lord is unique and values trust, a great business partner.”
Otto glanced at Link and found the young man standing nervously to one side with a slightly embarrassed expression.
At the same time, Otto noticed that this fake Elsa had always kept one arm behind her back since entering.
Soon, Sofia informed Otto that the fake Elsa was holding a teleportation scroll behind her, and the magical power contained in it was entirely sufficient to send her and her attendant Heel back to Black Gold City.
Apparently, if anything went wrong, she would run away immediately.
As for the ordinary people unloading goods in the Land of the Soaring Dragon, they probably hadn’t even been considered by the other party.
The fact was pretty much as Otto had thought; the people outside were disposable, and the losses had already been made up from the supplies.
This adventurous journey to the Land of the Soaring Dragon was not due to any trust in their fellow Bauhinia Family member, Link; it was just purely for the enormous profit in Nolan Forest.
To the merchants, Nolan Forest was a natural treasure vault, and many of its local products could fetch a good price in Black Gold City or other human countries.
Due to the recent dragon conflict, many products that could only be found in Nolan Forest were in high demand and couldn’t be bought even at a high price because of the shortage.
That’s because there was no production channel anymore…
If they could monopolize the profit this time, the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce would become the largest business in Black Gold City, taking over nearly half of the market in Black Gold City and many other human countries.
Of course, the prerequisite was for the somewhat peculiar Silver Dragon to be willing to cooperate with them.
Just as Elsa was extremely nervous, Otto suddenly stared at her and asked, “Cooperation? Are you placing yourselves on an equal footing with me?”
“Oops…”
Elsa’s heart sank, but she forced herself to remain calm, “Of course not, great Silver Dragon Lord. You may consider us as your servants and dependents in name.”
“We will bring you many conveniences and assistance, and all you need to do is to give us a little bit of your grace…”
Merchants only cared about profit and were not concerned about so-called false names.
As long as Otto was willing to cooperate with them, they wouldn’t even mind kneeling down and calling him dad, let alone being dependents and servants in name.
At present, the prerequisite was that the profit was significant enough to tempt them to do so.
Now, the Land of the Soaring Dragon indeed lacked many supplies and manpower, and many things that had no use for monsters could fetch a good price in Black Gold City.
Cooperating with a competent merchant seemed like a possibility.
“Interesting. You can discuss the specifics with Saru.”
Otto had no interest in wasting his time haggling with merchants, but finally, he stared coldly at the fake Lady Bauhinia.
“Remember one thing, though; don’t try any tricks, or you won’t be able to escape my wrath even if you return to Black Gold City!”
Elsa shook her head repeatedly, indicating that she wouldn’t, but she didn’t take Otto’s threat seriously in her heart.
Currently, several significant business owners in Black Gold City had jointly spent a fortune on hiring a super bodyguard.
It didn’t matter if it was one peculiar adult dragon or an old dragon; neither would dare to wreak havoc in Black Gold City..
