My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start - Chapter 513
Chapter 513: The Shocked Romani
After Watson gave the order for the assessment, all the Severed Fingers Gang members started to get busy.
Marcus and Count Gray had a good relationship, and the things they wanted to sell were different. There was no conflict, so he came to Count Gray to talk about cooperation.
“Gray, let me get straight to the point. I want to co-organize an event with you, and that is to give a bottle of sun fruit wine or moon fruit wine as a gift from our weapons shop. Similarly, if they buy two types of wine at the Holy Dragon Tavern more than a thousand times, they can also exchange for a platinum-tier weapon! That way, the price of my weapons won’t increase by much, and it can also promote the sales of our two businesses.”
“That is a good idea, Marcus. You’re a genius! I wonder how you came up with that.”
“That is not my idea, but Young Master Watson’s suggestion. According to Young Master Watson, that method is called bundled sales! I’ve always admired Young Master Watson. Even if he doesn’t have great strength, he can still become one of the best merchants in the Holy Dragon Kingdom by relying on his wisdom, right?”
Marcus did not hide his admiration for Watson in his words, and his eyes were shining.
“Young Master Watson is good in every aspect, but he’s too kind. If I had the sun fruit and the moon fruit, I could sell a bottle of wine for 10,000 gold coins, but Young Master Watson only sold it for 1,000 gold coins, giving those minor noblemen and even knights a chance to enjoy it! Young Master Watson is kind. We, as subordinates, have to help share his burden. Let us negotiate properly. Marcus, let’s talk about the specific number of weapons you are offering for the bundled sale that you mentioned just now.”
“There’s no rush. I’m actually interested in the angel wine that you mentioned. I wonder if I can try it.”
“Sure, I’ll bring you to the Holy Dragon Tavern later. We’ll try the angel wine with some platinum-tier magical beast meat.”
Count Gray and Marcus looked at each other and smiled.
Just as the two of them were discussing what to eat at the Holy Dragon Tavern later, a Severed Fingers Gang member walked in and reported that Lord Constantine was there for a visit.
“What does he want?” Count Gray frowned. Then, he rolled his eyes and smiled. “I remember that Young Master Watson’s newly recruited subordinate is a member of the Constantine family. Young Master Watson thinks highly of him! He came at the right time. We can take that opportunity to rope him in. His family also has a tavern. If we can rope him in, Young Master Watson will think more highly of us.”
…
Outside the Severed Fingers Gang headquarters.
Constantine got off the carriage and stood at the manor entrance. He sized up the gorgeous manor in front of him, his expression uncertain.
Just as he had expressed his wish to enter the manor to the guards at the entrance, the guards immediately went to report his arrival. They did not bring him in directly; they had made him wait outside. Count Gray was too arrogant. Regardless of whether it was his title or influence, he was much stronger than Count Gray. In addition to the price increase, he decided to vent the anger in his heart when he saw Count Gray later.
Many people were patrolling around the mansion. He did not understand why there were so many guards in the manor of someone with a minor nobility title. Those who did not know better would think that that was the palace.
After waiting for a few minutes, Count Gray walked out of the manor with Marcus by his side.
Count Gray came to Constantine’s side and bowed with a smile. “It is my honor to stand in the presence of the head of the Romani family. May I know why you are looking for me?”
“Gray, you made me wait so long. You are too arrogant. I came here to ask you something. Why are you raising the price of sun fruit wine and moon fruit wine?” Constantine snorted coldly. His words stunned Gray for a moment, but he quickly reacted.
“So it turns out that the head of the Romani family came to me because of this matter. Recently, we’ve sold too much of the sun fruit wine and the moon fruit wine. They are in short supply. It’s understandable if we raise the price a little.”
“I don’t care if you raise the price for your customers. Why are you raising my prices? Gray, you and I have been working together for a long time. If you increase the price now, it will cause me to lose a lot of money. I am here to ask if you can sell the ingredients to us at the original price. I can give you some extra compensation. If we can’t work that out, I can try my best to satisfy your other requests.”
“Lord Constantine, what are you talking about? With our relationship, why would I earn your money? Besides, you should not need the raw materials we provide.”
“What do you mean?”
“If you want raw materials, your son can help you with that. Whether it’s the sun fruit wine or the sun fruit, you don’t have to buy them from me. Haven’t you seen Payge? Has he not told you about it?” Gray asked.
He had seen the scene where Payge had transformed into a dragon and created the Dragon Transformation Potion. Payge could even create a diamond-tier potion, let alone the sun fruit and moon fruit.
His goal of raising the price was to earn more money, but he had no intention of earning Constantine’s money. Constantine was Payge’s father, so they were already connected. Of course, he would want to rope him in.
“Wait a minute, Count Gray. What do you mean my son can produce those fruits? How did you know? Did you see it?”
Constantine was confused. He recalled the one million gold coins that Payge had brought back and what he had said. He had thought that Payge was bullshitting, but it seemed like his son was telling the truth.
“It seems like you don’t know about that. It just so happens that I’m going to the Holy Dragon Tavern with Marcus for a drink. Lord Constantine, please come with us. In the meantime, I’ll let you take a look at the new wine that our Holy Dragon Tavern has launched—the angel wine.”
..
Two hours later…
“Lord Constantine, this bottle of angel wine is a gift to you. This is just a sample. When the Holy Dragon Tavern officially launches the wine, I hope you can help promote it. ”
Three drunkards walked out of the Holy Dragon Tavern. Count Gray and Constantine put their arms around each other’s shoulders as the former gave the latter a crystal clear bottle with feathers and wings attached to it. It was a new wine bottle.
“That’s easy. Since Count Gray is so generous, I naturally can’t be stingy.”
Constantine put the wine away and agreed straightforwardly.
While he was drinking with Count Gray, he asked around and found out that the sun fruits and moon fruits in the Holy Dragon Tavern were not cultivated but created by Watson using magic. At the same time, he also asked about his son, Payge. He found out that Payge was indeed Watson’s subordinate and was helping Watson to create something.
Constantine had mixed feelings when he found out about that. He did not expect that Watson really gave Payge one million gold coins. Was the strongest genius in the kingdom also a fool? At the same time, he was also skeptical about what Count Gray had said about his son’s ability to create the sun fruit and the moon fruit. He was ready to go home to verify it.
After saying goodbye to Count Gray, Constantine did not hesitate at all. He immediately stopped a carriage and returned home. The first thing he did was send someone to get Payge for him.
“Father, what’s the matter?” Standing in front of Romani, the page appeared to be very cautious.
I have a sun fruit here. Eat it and create a new one for me.”
Constantine took the sun fruit that he had prepared earlier. He noticed that Payge was staring at the sun fruit without moving. He revealed a slightly disappointed expression. “You can’t do it?”
“It’s not that, Father. I’m considering whether to eat it or not. If it’s just a sun fruit, I can do it even if I don’t eat it.”
“What did you say?”
Constantine widened his eyes. Payge reached out to the sun fruit in front of him. A gray light shot out from his hand and landed on the fruit. In less than a minute, one sun fruit had turned into two.
Constantine picked up the sun fruit and put it in his mouth. He felt the sweet juice in his mouth; he could not say anything for a long time.
At that moment, he did not want to say anything. He only wanted to praise the heavens and the gods. His son was no longer a good-for-nothing. With his son’s ability, his family would finally be on the rise.
