Reborn Demon Girl Will Not Meet the Uncle Hero

Chapter 74 Lastina Joins

Lastina King.

Even in the Central Empire of Humanity, she is the daughter of a Chamber of Commerce president who ranks highly.

During the war against the Demon King over a decade ago, this family played a significant role in the integration and transportation of resources. Their contributions to the battle earned them merit, and they began their transformation from traditional merchants to nobles.

Frankly speaking, the family's journey to becoming aristocrat wasn't particularly smooth. Of course, if Lastina King had married the youngest earl, she would have been recognized by the established aristocrats, becoming a family, and officially transitioning from merchants to those in power.

For this family, this is probably a very critical step, but judging from the current situation, their daughter is not very cooperative.

Isn't this nonsense?

If it was truly that important, Moher didn't think someone like Lastina King, who could use magic but wasn't considered powerful, could escape so easily, even if she was a young lady. The fact that she had made it to Sim City meant, frankly, someone had deliberately let her out.

How else could this happen?

Then the meeting between this girl and them seemed a little strange.

"You heard our conversation, Miss Lastina."

Mo He looked at the woman in front of him with long golden hair with some natural curls, and swept her over with a scrutinizing gaze. "Mr. Duo Luo has decided to make a deal with you. You are being helped by us. Aren't you going to make some concessions?"

Lastina looked around, seeing three people present: a decadent old man, a young girl, and a woman who looked about her own age but with a rather vulgar figure... old, weak, and disabled... but somehow she felt she didn't dare to provoke them. If they knew her identity and still dared to do such a thing, they were probably not easy to deal with.

She had finally calmed down and forced a smile. "As you all know, I ran away from home after a fight about my marriage. Even if you wanted to make a deal with me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to do it. The Chamber of Commerce won't obey my orders now. I'm sure my father is furious with what I've done."

She didn't know the extent of the other party's intelligence, so she could only tell the truth: "If your request is about the Xunjin Chamber of Commerce, even killing me will be of no use."

"Don't be so anxious, Miss Lastina. Since she's a noble lady escaping, she should have some money on her, right?"

"...Some." Lastina couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Did these people want to take all her money and then force her to do some shameful things to make money for them?
Many ominous images flashed through her mind, and her face turned pale.

A smile appeared on Moher's face. She said to Rose, "Rose, the great Miss Lastina King has come to our place. Don't you want to open two bottles of our newly brewed wine to welcome her?"

Rose immediately followed Moher's instructions, went to the nearby cabinet and took out two bottles of newly brewed wine, took out a wine glass, poured the wine to sober up, and then brought it over respectfully.

Lastina was a little wary.

However, she soon realized that it was pointless for her to be on guard. After all, if the other party wanted to do something, they could just force it. There was no need to drug her or anything like that.

"Please taste it, this is our own brew."

Lastina took a sip and nodded. "It tastes quite good. Much better than I expected."

In other words, it barely caught the young lady's eye and could be made into a product to be sold to the nobility. Moher then asked, "If I were to let you name the price, how much would you ask?"

This question touched upon Lastina's expertise. She immediately lost her timid demeanor and said confidently, "If it's a drink like this, my asking price won't exceed two silver coins. Your cost will be at most fifty copper coins."

Doro and Rose looked at Mohé. They had not calculated the cost, and perhaps only Mohé knew this situation.

Moh nodded slightly.

"If I were to ask the Gold Merchants to sell it, I could raise the price to two gold coins. As you can see, the difference in value is a hundredfold. The value of alcohol is never in itself. Of course, if you're talking about the elves' 'spiritual wine', that's another matter."

He really understands business.

Moher showed a satisfied expression. She took two steps back. "I'll leave this to you, Doro. Rose and I will do something to attract customers and sell today's drinks. This will eliminate the factors that could ruin the business. Don't you have a deal to discuss?"

With that, she left with Rose.

-

"Lord Moh, aren't you afraid that Dora will make some kind of deal that's disadvantageous to you?"

"It doesn't affect anything. Let's not talk about this for now. Now that you've changed into this outfit, do you see this sign? Hold it up later."

Rose took the sign Moher handed her and saw the words on it: "Wine made by a girl like me, stomped on the ground. Welcome everyone to come and taste it."

Words like this.

She was immediately filled with black lines: "Lord Moh, are you serious?"

"You think I'm joking? Look, I've changed into clothes too. I also have a brand."

She pulled out the exact same brand as Rose's.

Rose then realized that Moher had also donned a maid outfit. She was a big fan of the outfit and would sometimes wear it around the mansion, so no one paid much attention to it. Now that she thought about it, it was definitely not very appropriate.

"Are you sure people will buy this instead of being rejected? Something like that being stepped on...it's disgusting just thinking about it, right?" "That's why I asked you to wear stockings?"

"This has nothing to do with stockings, right?!"

Moher put his hands on his hips and said, "Didn't you hear what Lastina said? The value of alcohol isn't in the alcohol itself, but in other things. As expected of a seasoned businessman, she enlightened me immediately. When it comes to business, humans know a lot. Don't worry, although I'm not that proficient in business, I understand humans. Just come with me to the streets and hold up the signs. We'll start by attracting people to the store."

Rose was hesitant, but she knew that this demon king would give people room for refusal even when he was being funny, and she found it hard to imagine what the reputation of the so-called corrupt wine would become.

but……

How many perverts are there in this world?

Rose was completely stunned.

She knew she was still quite attractive in her current body, and that Mo He was petite and adorable, but she hadn't expected the two of them, standing on the street, to attract so many people. Their intense gazes frightened her, and if she weren't so powerful, she wondered if they would do something untoward to her.

Mohe calmly took many customers to the store.

Then they started selling drinks.

Lastina had just said that it would not exceed two silver coins, but Moch immediately sold it for three silver coins.

Everyone seems to think it’s not too expensive.

Rose was the one who felt uneasy. She leaned over to Moher's ear and whispered, "Lord Moher, isn't this considered fraud? We didn't even use our feet to pump the wine. It's all done the normal way..."

"What did you say, Rose? To thank everyone for coming today, I decided to give away the socks I'm wearing? Only those who buy drinks will have a chance to get them."

"?!"

"Me, me! I have to be next!"

Business became even more booming.

The wine brought into the city today was sold out immediately, leaving Mohe with a small income of six or seven gold coins—a considerable sum. In a place like Baixi Town, few could earn six or seven gold coins a year. While it wasn't a huge sum for nobles or some merchants, it was a decent start.

Of course, it can’t compare to the various gold items I looted from Lisiduowei.

If those things were sold, they could fetch more, but Mohe could only melt them into gold coins for use.

But Moh was happy.

She looked at Rose and said, "Don't look so gloomy. I didn't really ask you to take off your socks. Aren't the socks I gave you unworn?"

“But those customers will think I wore it!”

"What impact does this have?"

"Isn't this also cheating?"

Moh spread his hands and said matter-of-factly, "What else? But I hope you'll call it a brilliant business practice."

The devil is indeed born evil. Even when doing human things, he will subconsciously do evil things!

But Rose was not in a position to blame Moher.

"You two, have you finished your discussion?"

Moher looked at Doro and Lastina, who had already finished their discussion.

"I heard you're also a businessman." Lastina's expression brightened. "To be honest, I have some experience in business. I've been trained by my father, so I'm quite adept at it. If you don't mind, I'll work under you if you give me a living."

Of course, Mohe couldn't just give the other party a bowl of rice to eat. Just like Duo Luo and the others, Mohe also paid them normal salaries. As for the transaction part, that's another matter.

"What do I need to do? Help you hide your identity? Or do you have other ambitions?"

"It would be great if you could help me conceal my identity."

Mo He nodded. "This is a very simple matter. Especially for me. I happened to meet you here today. It must be fate. Since we have this fate, and Mr. Duo Luo has helped you, why not do a little more? Come back with us!"

The Arrangement of Fate—What is God Thinking?
Is it because Xia Di made Him come last time, so He plans to do something?

It's really annoying.
