Lords go left, Emperors go right

No one has developed the central area in depth. It is said that the central area of ​​the Central Continent is shrouded in a mysterious curse. Even the local primitive tribesmen dare not approach it easily, let alone those outsiders from overseas.

How long this balance of power can last is still unknown, but it shouldn't be too long. Once the lords from various continents gain a foothold in their respective territories in the Central Continent, war will soon follow. The geographical location of the Central Continent is too important to be a battleground from the very beginning.

In order to solve the problem of selling goods in the territory, Osta decided to pretend to be a merchant and attend the trade exchange organized by merchants from the northern continent. His original royal identity was not convenient to use, so he needed a new disguise identity.

According to the intelligence information collected from the daughters of the wealthy merchants in the territory, the merchants in the northern continent will hold a commodity exchange meeting soon. Osta can pretend to be the eldest son of these wealthy merchants and go to our banquet, and promote the agricultural products of his territory.

"Mr. Lord, is that really something made by humans? I feel like it's a miracle, something that only gods can make."

"Tifana, if you give me some time, we can also make something similar in our territory. Now is not the time to be surprised."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lord, I lost my composure just now, please don't mind."

"It's okay, Tifana. When we have this thing in our territory, you can visit and use it at will."

Osta brought Chris and three other maids with him and arrived at the gathering place of the merchants from the northern continent according to the intelligence. This time, the one who provided support to Osta was his holy elf Tifana.

This female leader of the original Holy Ruins Elf Tribe is proficient in using multiple types of magic. The transparent moving magic circle under the feet of Osta and the others is a special magic flying formation created by Tifana using wind magic. People standing on it can fly in the air easily, just like sitting on an airplane.

This magic is much more advanced than the flying magic of the human race. The flying magic of the human race magic profession, the mages, can basically only be used by one person, to ensure that they can fly. Tifana's magic can be used by multiple people, at least dozens of people can be transported in the air at a time. This alone makes the human counterparts in the neighboring continent far behind.

Tifana showed a surprised expression on her face. Osta himself was also surprised. He did not expect that the businessmen from the human race countries in the northern continent would hold a business gathering on a super airship in the air. The super airship looked very impressive. It was a standard steam airship, flying slowly in the air.

The size of the super airship is comparable to that of an aircraft carrier on Earth. Aosta estimated that its length is more than 300 meters. It is quite a spectacular sight to see such a huge behemoth floating in the air. From the airship, you can overlook the sea below and enjoy the beautiful sea scenery while flying.

Osta quickly sorted out his thoughts. The natives of this plane would not have made that super airship. It should have been made by the black technology left by the travelers in the northern continent during the prehistoric civilization period. Judging from the steam airship alone, the technological level of the northern continent is higher than that of other human continents.

Fortunately, the countries on the northern continent are busy fighting among themselves, and many of the inherited black technologies are used to deal with their own people. They do not pose much of a threat to other human continents for the time being, and it is unclear whether this situation will change in the future.

The United Chambers of Commerce in the Northern Continent are the most powerful. These United Chambers of Commerce are also called business alliances. They are super interest groups formed by the new nobles. The power of some business alliances even exceeds that of ordinary countries. The status of many supreme rulers of empires, the emperor himself, may not be as high as that of the president of a business alliance.

As long as these business leaders are willing and have that idea, they can easily overthrow many countries and directly affect the choice of the heir to the throne. This exception is only limited to the northern continent. The merchants in other human continents are not powerful enough to compete with the imperial power. Even ordinary nobles can easily crush these merchants.

The most powerful United Chamber of Commerce in the Northern Expedition Continent mainly consists of several business alliances, which are also new nobles. These business alliances not only fight with the old noble conservatives, but also do not let go of their own people. In order to earn greater economic benefits, the new noble class merchants often will not show mercy even if they are from the same business alliance.

The several super-strong chambers of commerce all have their own characteristics. The banquet that Aosta is attending is hosted by the Euphemias Chamber of Commerce. The Euphemias Chamber of Commerce is also known as the "Sky Chamber of Commerce." This is mainly because the main business operations of this chamber of commerce, cargo transportation, are all completed through air routes. They only travel by air, and the means of transportation are various steam airships.

There are two main parties that have a competitive relationship with the Euphnic Union Chamber of Commerce. These two chambers of commerce can be called old enemies. One of them monopolizes the land transportation lines, and the other controls the sea routes. The three parties maintain a delicate peaceful relationship with each other.

Once one of the parties crosses the border and operates across regions, it will soon lead to a large-scale business war. Osta is not interested in the business conflicts and grievances between the super-united chambers of commerce. He only cares whether there are people among them who can do business with him.

With the support of the flying magic of the holy elf Tifana, Osta and his companions successfully boarded the super airship. The speed of the steam airship was not fast. It was probably for the convenience of the passengers on the airship so that they could better appreciate the beautiful sea scenery, so it deliberately drove very slowly, just enough for Osta and his companions to board the airship smoothly.

Tifana was on standby in the airspace outside the airship, flying at a speed similar to that of the super airship. She was ready to quickly evacuate Osta and the others in case of any emergency. Osta was here to discuss business, and he valued peace. He would not take action unless it was absolutely necessary, and would not mess with the gold coins.

This time, Osta changed into a black suit that the young masters of wealthy merchants often wore when attending banquets, and a standard tuxedo. His current disguised identity was the young master of a wealthy merchant, not the original prince, so he needed to make necessary adjustments in his clothing.

Chris, Yulia and Sophia, the three exclusive accompanying combat maids, do not need to change other equipment. They can just wear the Gothic maid outfits they wore in the territory. Chris and the others are currently the exclusive maids who accompany the rich young masters out for fun. If they wear other combat equipment, it will cause unnecessary suspicion and suspicion from outsiders.

"John, the price of gemstones is not fluctuating much right now. Your exchange price is too high."

"George, the price of gemstones has not increased, but the exchange price of gold has increased. We need to keep up with the changes in the market situation!"

"Magel, the purity of the mithril ore you sold me last time was wrong. It was much worse than the sample. Why don't you give me an explanation?"

"Hank, this isn't your first time doing business. This is how gambling on gemstones works. If you win a red gold mine, I'll be the one who loses money."

After entering the luxury airship, Osta took Chris and the others to visit the interior decoration of the super steam airship. Osta's expectations were not in vain. The decoration inside the airship was very luxurious and exquisite, with a vague steampunk style. Osta could see many exquisite gear-shaped decorations, with a clear steampunk style, and the visual sense was so strong that Osta could not ignore it.

However, the atmosphere in the super airship was too awkward. Osta felt that he could not fit in at all in the special environment and atmosphere of the scene. He was out of tune with the people around him and felt an inexplicable sense of disharmony. The most appropriate description Osta could find was that the air was filled with the smell of money. The businessmen from the northern continent countries in the airship were all wearing exquisite black suits and were busy discussing business matters.

Those merchants were definitely qualified businessmen, or perhaps they were hopeless. They were all busy talking about business and paid little attention to Osta's arrival. Even though Osta's exclusive maids, such as Chris, were so beautiful that they could bring disaster, these merchants still kept their eyes on him.

The businessmen didn't even look at the beautiful girl passing by, they were concentrating on bargaining with their business partners or competitors, and were obsessed with business matters. In this different world, a truly successful businessman probably didn't need any woman to silently support him behind the scenes. Women would only delay their business and bargaining speed.

As Osta listened to the merchants' discussion, he felt like he didn't fit in at all. Everyone present was discussing how to buy and sell luxury goods such as gold and gems, and he, who was promoting agricultural crops such as potatoes, felt like he had walked into the wrong set.

Osta wanted to back out, but in front of Chris and the other maids, he had to consider his image as a lord. Therefore, Osta reluctantly chose to stay and see if he could find a suitable business partner, just to try his luck.

Someone on the super airship still noticed Osta and his group. These people seemed too unusual. They were not in a hurry to talk business, but wandered around on the airship, as if they were tourists. In the control room, a white-haired old man who looked energetic, looked at the picture on the magic display screen in front of him with his piercing eyes, and fell into deep thought.

"President, those people don't seem to be our invited guests. I will arrange for someone to expel them and drive them off the airship at the next stop. What do you think?"

"No, send someone to invite them over! Everyone who comes is a guest, don't miss any opportunity to make money."

"President, if it's someone with bad intentions, I'm afraid... this is the high seas, not our northern continent."

"Seth, you are still too young. It would be great if you could judge people as accurately as your father. They don't communicate with other businessmen, maybe they have bigger business."

"President, I will keep your teachings in mind."

Chapter 79: An unexpected turn of events after being rejected

The Euphnic Chamber of Commerce is one of the most powerful chambers of commerce in the human race's northern continent. As a large business alliance, they are very powerful and can even manipulate the changes in the imperial power of many countries in the northern continent. Of course, this influence is limited to the scope of the northern continent, and it will not work in other human continents.

The law of gold coins being omnipotent only applies to the northern continent. The other human continents all emphasize bloodline or religious rights above all else. In other human continents, most merchants have the same status as farmers. No matter how much money they make, they are still the targets of oppression and exploitation by the ruling class such as the royal family and aristocrats.

Aosta was on the Euphnic Chamber of Commerce's super steam airship "Golden Sun". He disguised himself as the son of a wealthy merchant and went to the banquet hall of the airship to find a business partner who could trade with him. However, the plan did not go smoothly at the beginning, mainly because the difference in the trading goods between the two sides was too big.

The merchants here seemed to be dealing in luxury goods such as gold and jewelry. Aosta wanted to sell agricultural products, but it seemed that he had come to the wrong place. They probably had little interest in agricultural and sideline products. From the perspective of profit, real gold and silver were obviously much more profitable than farm products such as potatoes. These merchants knew how to choose.

Just when Osta felt that this infiltration was going to end in vain, an unexpected new turn of events occurred. Douglas St, the president of the Euphnic Chamber of Commerce, happened to be on the Golden Sun. Douglas St sent his butler to invite Osta and his party to meet in his exclusive reception hall.

Osta didn't know much about the northern continent. Therefore, he was very cautious. These businessmen were all very shrewd and difficult to deal with, just like those experienced politicians who had been in politics for many years.

"Young man, don't be nervous. We are all here to discuss business. What do you want to trade on my old airship?"

"Mr. President, I want to trade..."

In Douglas's exclusive reception hall, Osta met this famous figure from the Northern Continent. President Douglas was already an energetic old man with a head of white hair. However, there were not many wrinkles on his face, and he looked strong and healthy. His bright eyes showed that it was not time for him to retire yet. He could stay in the position of president for at least another ten years. He just didn't know if others were willing to let him stay that long.

Douglas was sitting, so his height could not be seen for the time being. The hand placed on the desk, with rings of different styles and materials on all ten fingers, gave Osta the illusion of seeing a nouveau riche.

Chairman Douglas is the contemporary helmsman of the Douglas family, equivalent to the head of the family. This family belongs to the new aristocracy and can be regarded as a peer of the chaebol groups on Earth. After the meeting, Osta briefly explained his purpose and said that he was the eldest son of a wealthy businessman.

This disguised avatar is more useful. These new nobles in the northern continent, because they are from wealthy merchants, have fought a lot with the conservative old nobles. They are very resistant to those royal nobles who are born by blood. Revealing the real identity may be treated differently, so Osta chose to disguise himself. Changing his identity is more suitable for doing business.

"So you are a merchant from the Cronesian Empire in the western continent. This thing is good, but the profit is too little. Young man, I may not sound nice, but you can sell this thing to civilians, but you won't make much money. Our Chamber of Commerce only buys and sells luxury goods such as gold, silver and jewelry, so we are not accepting expansion business for the time being."

"Mr. President, are you really not going to consider this? This thing has a production area, and the profit will be increased after mass production."

"I'm sorry, young man. I can't invest my gold coins in such a risky project. You can go find other people. By the way, those girls behind you...are you interested in being jewelry models? As for the remuneration..."

"Sorry to bother you. See you again someday!"

After Osta was sure that President Douglas had no intention of making a follow-up transaction, he chose to politely leave. The main business of the Euphnic Chamber of Commerce is aimed at the wealthy class, and its business activities are mainly the sale of gold and jewelry. Although President Douglas knew the use of the potatoes that Osta brought out, he was not very interested in buying them.

For personal reasons, Osta was reserved in his sales promotion and did not disclose that the crops he was selling far exceeded those of other peers in terms of yield and growth cycle. As a result, President Doug Lester mistakenly believed that the potatoes Osta was selling were no different from those of others, with a long growth cycle and low yield, so he was not interested.

Osta left the luxurious reception hall with his personal maids, Chris and the others. Even if the business failed, the friendship remained. You can't just leave it at that. The old president actually had his eyes on the girls around Osta and wanted to hire Chris and the others as jewelry models. Osta refused without even thinking about it. He would not accept any money for such a thing. The girl was his, and even if she really wanted to be a model, she could only be his.

"Young people just can't keep their cool. How can they make a lot of money this way? It's a pity that such pretty girls would be wasted if they didn't become models. I've never seen anyone prettier than them."

"President, that kid refused to accept my toast, why don't we..."

"Forget it. He dared to bring a few girls on our airship. His calm expression didn't seem fake. He must have some trick up his sleeve. Now is the time to talk business. Less trouble is worse than more."

"President, I understand."

Chairman Douglas looked at the backs of Osta and others leaving, sighed lightly, and turned to deal with other things. He did not accept the advice of the butler beside him. This unintentional move saved their lives. If they really wanted to fight, any one of Chris and the other three could directly kill all the people on the super airship and then retreat unscathed.

Not long after Osta left the luxurious exclusive reception hall, just when he thought his last hope was shattered, someone came to him again. This time it was a beautiful woman in a suit, who looked like a housekeeper, wearing a monocle.

"Sir, I wonder if you are free now. My eldest daughter wants to see you!"

"Is your daughter from the president's family? Forget it. The president is not interested in what I'm selling."

"No, no, sir, it's his business if the old man doesn't like her. The young lady is different from the old man, and you won't lose anything by meeting her."

"Well, in that case, I'll go meet him."

The beautiful housekeeper was very graceful and had a charming and gentle smile on her pretty face, which made it difficult for Osta to refuse. In the end, Osta accepted the invitation because she was a beauty.

The beautiful housekeeper was a blonde beauty with golden shoulder-length hair. She was estimated to be about 170cm tall, a standard model figure, with a curvy figure and a C-cup size, which was quite attractive. Osta was puzzled as to why the old president he met before did not choose this beautiful housekeeper to be a jewelry model.

"Miss, the guests have arrived."

"Excuse me, Mary, please ask them to come in and help me prepare tea."

"Got it, miss. I'll take care of it right away."

Osta and the others came to a room that was as luxurious as the exclusive reception hall of President Douglaister. This room was obviously a boudoir of a certain young lady. The layout of the room was full of luxury. Gold and jewelry were randomly placed, as if they were not precious things, scattered on the ground, like sundries. The world of the rich is sometimes really incomprehensible.

The young lady who invited Osta and the others to come here was not in this boudoir, but in the studio next to the boudoir. There was a door from the boudoir to the private studio. After getting the permission of the young lady, Osta and the others entered this hidden studio. The layout of the studio seemed like an artist's art studio. The location of this studio happened to be in the front area of ​​the super steam airship "Golden Sun".

There is a large skylight above the art studio, through which you can see the blue sky and white clouds. The natural sunlight shining through the skylight is the best source of lighting for the studio, and no other lighting tools are needed. Most of the studio floor is designed with transparent glass windows, through which you can directly see the vast blue sea below the airship. This design is very avant-garde, and people with acrophobia probably won't like it, as it can easily cause various discomfort reactions.

The layout of the studio is very artistic. It can be seen that the young lady was very attentive when decorating the studio. Her attitude is completely different from that of the boudoir outside. To be honest, the boudoir just now has hardly been tidied. It looks very messy, with gold, silver and jewelry randomly placed. Unlike this art studio, everything is neatly arranged.

Osta's eyes turned slightly, and his expression became a little subtle. There was nothing he could do. As a gentleman, his eyes would automatically pay special attention to something he was interested in. This studio was probably a clothing design studio, and there were many finished clothes designed, but those clothes were all underwear, and they were made of luxurious materials, gold threads and gems were everywhere, and the design style was sexy and open, bold and hot, comparable to those erotic underwear.

Even an experienced gentleman like Aosta was a little dazzled at first. There were too many different styles and types, which were beyond his cognition. He learned a lot more knowledge. The one who designed these luxurious underwear was the young lady. As a girl, she must understand girls' needs better than boys.

The design style of this lady is so perfect that Aosta has to admit that it is almost impeccable. She can perfectly combine the elements of luxury, sexiness and fun, which is a high level among designers.

"Sir, I'm sorry, I was busy with work just now. What should I call you?"

"Miss, don't worry about the name. The housekeeper has just explained my background to me. Are you interested in the products I sell?"

"Well, grandpa values ​​gold, silver and jewelry too much and thinks that agricultural products are not profitable enough. I think if we don't develop some new businesses, how can we compete with other chambers of commerce in the future!"

"Miss, it's great that you think so. I think we can have a good chat about business."

The one who invited Osta to meet was the eldest daughter of the Douglas family, Lanis. This eldest daughter was different from her grandfather and father. She wanted to expand new business. When Osta had a secret conversation with President Douglast, Lanis was in a nearby room and happened to witness it all. After seeing Osta take out the potatoes, she had a new idea. The trade of real money and silver is certainly profitable, but sometimes, expanding new business is not a bad thing, and having one more investment project is also a good thing.

When Miss Lenise was a child, she tried potatoes out of curiosity and thought they were good and should sell well. This was mainly because she was still young and not as cautious and conservative as her grandfather and father. She did not dare to invest rashly in things that did not make a big profit.

Sometimes, youth is also an asset. Osta is also very satisfied. If he were to trade with Lenise, it would definitely be much better than with her grandfather Douglas. One is an old man and the other is a beauty. How to choose? How to make a choice? Osta has a normal orientation in that aspect and will definitely choose Lenise.

Chapter 80 Business Cooperation Project Successfully Achieved

On the Euphnic Chamber of Commerce's super steam airship "Golden Sun", Aosta came here to try to find business opportunities. After being rejected by Douglas, the president of the Euphnic Chamber of Commerce, he thought there would be no buyers this time. Fortunately, there was an unexpected new turn of events.

Although the current head of the Douglas family was not interested, the eldest daughter, Lanis, seemed to be interested. She invited Osta and others to her studio for a private talk. The grandpa was not interested in the deal, but the granddaughter seemed to be very interested. If they changed the negotiation partner, the cooperation could proceed smoothly.

Osta didn't know much about the human countries in the northern continent, but on the way here, Osta specifically asked Mary, the beautiful housekeeper who led the way, about the deeds of Miss Lanis. Mary was not only Miss Lanis's personal housekeeper, but the two of them were close friends since childhood. Mary's family was also one of the affiliated families of the Douglas family, so she knew a lot about Lanis.

The beautiful housekeeper Mary told Osta all the information that could be disclosed to the public. She had obtained the tacit consent of Miss Lanis in advance. In the northern continent, Lanis was a famous figure among the new nobles and a member of the "Golden Rose". This title of "Golden Rose" specifically refers to the daughters of the ten richest merchants in the northern continent, that is, the legendary "Ten Rich Ladies".

The competition between the conservative old nobles and the wealthy new nobles in the northern continent continued, and the two sides despised each other, which indirectly led to the fact that although the members of the "Golden Rose" were very attractive in terms of appearance and wealth, the royal nobles, princes and young masters of famous noble families always kept a wait-and-see attitude towards the members of the "Golden Rose". Due to the family honor and position, they did not dare to cross the line easily.

The possibility of marriage between the two sides is almost zero. The conservative old aristocracy pays attention to the purity of bloodline and sneers at the new aristocracy. No matter how rich they are, it is useless. There are many new aristocrats who want to have a political marriage and cooperate with the old aristocracy, but the other party does not care about it at all and there is no way.

"Miss Lanis, would you like to change your clothes a little?"

"Dress up? Sir, are you from a royal family? You are so particular about etiquette. This is my work clothes. It is convenient to move around. Besides, I am not the eldest daughter of a noble family. I don't have to pay attention to my personal image like those princesses."

"Ms. Lanis, you misunderstood. I come from a wealthy family, but I just feel that this is a little inappropriate. If your boyfriend finds out, it will cause unnecessary misunderstandings."

"I don't have the luxury of a boyfriend! Those noble young masters and princes are so hypocritical, they dare not look but dare not talk. The men of other wealthy merchants are even more boring, they treat dating as business, and from the beginning... Sorry, the topic has gone a little off track."

Miss Lenis's main occupation is a fashion designer. This beautiful girl has been committed to designing lingerie and bikini swimwear for luxury brands. Her style is mainly open, sexy and interesting. However, Lenis is usually helpless. In the countries on the northern continent, due to the obstruction of conservative royal nobles, the products she designed have not been promoted, severely resisted, and cannot be recognized. This makes Lenis, a designer, very concerned and she has the idea of ​​changing continents and looking for new markets.

Lanis was estimated to be about 165cm tall, with a standard otome figure, well-proportioned and slim, with a curvy figure. Her pink hair was shoulder-length and casually draped down her back, reaching her slender waist. Even her eyes were pink.

The pair of pink eyes were full of concentration. When talking to Osta, Lenise kept a relaxed and calm expression on her face, as if everything was under her control. This expression was exactly the same as that of President Douglas. After all, she was his granddaughter and had inherited everything from him. Of course, Lenise's soft voice was definitely much better than her grandfather Douglas's old voice.

At first, Austa was somewhat concerned about the way Lanis was dressed. This beautiful young lady was very open-minded. She was wearing a loose-fitting white shirt and a pair of cute pink slippers on her cute feet, which seemed to be the kind used on the beach.

Lanis was wearing a standard nude top with a white shirt on the outside. The collar was open, so you could see the cute pink underwear inside. Even the panties were clearly visible. Her snow-white legs looked very slender due to the visual effect of the clothes she was wearing. The peaks of her upper body, which were estimated to be C in size, were clearly visible, and you could even see the ravines. You couldn't help but let your eyes wander.

Lanis herself didn't feel anything wrong, and didn't think there was anything wrong with her dressing like this, and there was no shyness on her pretty face. This young lady was completely naked before, with only a white shirt on the outside, which was even more tempting than her current state.

According to Lanis's own words, this working state is cool and she likes it this way. She invited Osta to come as a spy this time, and she wore pink underwear reluctantly because of the presence of outsiders. Usually, Lanis likes to sleep naked. However, Lanis is relatively low-key in the Douglas family. Even many people in the family are unaware of this secret. They don't know that their eldest daughter actually has such a habit. There are basically no people who can see this scene, only Lanis's best friend, the beautiful housekeeper Mary.

Lanis was very different from the royal princesses and daughters of noble families that Osta had met before. Most of them were not as open as Lanis. However, after seeing the styles of the luxurious underwear designed by Lanis, Osta was no longer surprised why Lanis was so different.

As a designer, Lanis dresses like this to facilitate work needs. Often, she will personally put on the underwear she designed to try it out and see how it feels. Wearing too much will be troublesome and inconvenient for work needs.

Lenise's designs are not limited to underwear, she also designs jewelry, underwear is the main design direction because of her personal preference. As a gentleman, Osta can understand Lenise's interests and hobbies, so he no longer pays attention to these details.

Lanis walked to the seat in front of Osta and sat down, crossing her legs casually. Because of her good maintenance, her fair skin exuded an attractive luster under the light, as if it were made of top-grade white marble. Osta had an illusion for a moment, thinking that he was standing in front of a beautiful and aesthetic sculpture.

"What is the purchase price of potatoes? Give me a reference! I plan to buy them and resell them to the Southern Continent and the Elf Continent. According to reliable information, there is a drought in the Elf Continent this year, and slave uprisings have broken out in many places in the Southern Continent. The food supply is tight, so I should be able to sell a lot."

"Ms. Lanis, I have already set the price. Here is the instructions for the agricultural products I have. Please take a look at them."

Osta came prepared. He immediately handed over the report he had prepared before coming from his storage ring. The report not only recorded the yield of potatoes, but also the expected harvest of corn, wheat, rice and other crops that were ready to be planted. Lanis looked at the report in her hand, and her expression gradually became subtle, with a hint of surprise in her beautiful pink eyes.

The inventory in Osta's hands exceeded Lanis's expectations. She originally thought that Osta was only selling potatoes, but she didn't expect that he had a lot of inventory. Not only potatoes, but also many agricultural products and aquatic products, as well as game. It seems that he plans to sell economic fruits in the future.

"Sir, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. This is my first time doing this kind of business, so I'm bound to be a little inexperienced. Your goods are in large quantities, so I suggest you try selling them to our competitor, the Gran Martel Chamber of Commerce. They're better at this kind of business."

"That's not necessary, Miss Lanis. You should come first! We should try everything. Profit is not a problem. Even if we make a loss, it's not your fault. The loss will be mine, and we can share the profit together."
