In this world where the level of productivity development is not high and materials are scarce, sugar and flour are both scarce.Ranked among the ranks of luxury goods.

Nina was curious as to why Cook bought so much sugar and flour.

But no matter how he asked, Cook always looked serious and refused to tell Sister Nina the reason.

"It's a secret. When the time comes, sister Nina will just keep an eye on it."

"Okay. I'll just look forward to it."

"Hehe, it will definitely make Sister Nina happy."

Anyway, it's Cook's crazy ideas again.While Nina was curious, she was very relieved about what Cook said.

Because Cook has to buy a large amount, which has already been counted as a bulk commodity transaction, the object of the transaction has changed from retail vendors and shops to chambers of commerce.

Only the Chamber of Commerce can take out the amount Cook needs at one time, and vendors and stores don't have that much inventory.And if you buy wholesale, you should be able to get a much cheaper price than retail.

Although Cook is not worried about money.But you can save as much as you can.Cook, who has lived a hard life, knows the importance of diligence and thrift in housekeeping.

After asking the shop owner, Cook learned that there are two chambers of commerce operating flour and sugar businesses in the capital of Dalabangba.

One of them is smaller, called 'Gertner' Chamber of Commerce.

Another larger, called 'Balker' chamber of commerce.The president of the Balk Chamber of Commerce is a capable young man named Charles.Not only is he smart and capable, but he also seems to have a big background.

'Gertner' is an independent chamber of commerce on the surface, but secretly restricted by Charles.

After listening to the boss's explanation, Cook sighed.

This kind of unfair competition is everywhere.

Although it was a bit annoying, Cook couldn't say anything.After all, he had used the privileges given by the queen to threaten Sister Cretia to hand over her shares in the bookstore.

As far as the management system is concerned, this is the case in a society with underdeveloped productive forces.

But Cook believes the system will continue to be refined as the two countries form an alliance.

After collecting information on sugar and flour purchase channels, Cook immediately acted.

"According to the habit, let's go to the big chamber of commerce first. The price of the small chamber of commerce is likely to be affected by the big chamber of commerce, and it should be about the same."

"Yes. I will pay attention to every move of the people around me. If there is danger, I will take Cook away. Please cooperate with me at that time."

"Please trouble Nina. I have absolutely no fighting power. I always cause trouble for you."

"It's my job to take care of Cook. Please leave it to me."

That being said, Nina's worries should be unnecessary in the capital city of Dalabang, where public security is good.

Cook first chose the Balk Chamber of Commerce.

When I came to the Chamber of Commerce to explain, the staff in charge of the reception were dumbfounded by the large order placed by Cook.

"So many? I, we have never received such a large order. Yes, I'm sorry. I can't decide, please, please wait a moment. I will contact the chairman."

The seemingly experienced old shopkeeper couldn't speak clearly when he was so excited.

The staff of other chambers of commerce reacted similarly to the old shopkeeper, they were all flustered and at a loss.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Cook felt refreshed, with an inexplicable sense of refreshment.Sitting on a chair with legs crossed, Yan Ran looked like a Tu Emperor.

Cook, who was specially taken care of, sat in the center of the chamber of commerce, drank the good tea served by the staff, and waited in a good mood for the arrival of the president of the chamber of commerce.

Not long after, a young man with blond hair, a thin figure, wearing gorgeous clothes, showing the aristocratic atmosphere to the fullest, walked in with his arms around the woman.

Cook also noticed young people.Looking at the attitude of other guild members towards him, Cook guessed that he was the famous Charles.

However, he doesn't look like a businessman, but more like an orthodox nobleman.

Not to mention the ostentatious attire, he was still embracing a woman in the workplace without any shyness, Cook's eyelids twitched when he saw this.

I can't do it to the extent of Charles.Although both are businessmen, Cook and this Charles are completely different types of people.

As soon as the young man entered, the old shopkeeper leaned into his ear and whispered for a while.

Cook noticed that he had been looking at himself as the old shopkeeper explained.

After the old shopkeeper finished speaking, as expected, the young man walked up to him to say hello.

"Hello, hello. Charles, the president of the Balk Chamber of Commerce. I didn't expect the customer to be so young and so bold to place such a large order. It really impressed me."

This guy turned out to be Charles.

Although it doesn't look like the type he likes, Cook is here to buy things and not to find trouble, so he still shows a business smiling face and communicates with the other party.

After a simple rapport, Cook and Nina were invited to the backstage for a formal discussion.

Nina, who is a bodyguard and assistant, moves behind Cook.

Nina noticed that at that moment, Charles showed a surprised expression as if the sky had fallen.

He stared at Nina with an incredulous expression.

Cook, who was walking in the front, noticed something strange and stopped to ask.

"What's the matter, Mr. Charles? What's the matter?"

"No, it's all right. It's just that this...... woman is with Master Cook?"

Regarding Charles' inquiry, it was obvious that Cook was a little angry.

Cook, who is friendly to everyone and smiles naturally, glared fiercely at Charles when he met him for the first time.

"It's mine. Got an opinion?"

"Of course not."

Charles responded to Cook with a reluctant answer, and then let Nina and Cook enter the room together.

When Nina passed by, Charles not only showed disgust, but also moved back a little.

It was like he was afraid of touching Nina and getting his body dirty.

"Tch, orc."

Charles' voice was very small, so it only reached Nina's ears.

In the past, when faced with such a rude person, Nina would basically punch him and the other person would become honest.

But this time, Nina is traveling as Cook's entourage.Nina's every move is related to Cook's image.You can't do things that cause Cook trouble, and you can't tarnish Cook's image.

Moreover, Charles' short words touched Nina's scar.

The cat girl's ears and tail drooped for a moment.Although the expression did not change, the mood could no longer be controlled by the ears and tail.

The ensuing negotiations were not pleasant.Charles put his arms around the woman, showing off.The attitude has also changed 180 degrees from when he first entered the door. He is not as arrogant as a businessman.

"Master Cook, you are buying things with me. The things are in my hands. I have the final say on whether to sell them or not. I have the final say on how much."

"You're right. I know all this. But the prices of sugar and flour here are too high. They are almost twice as expensive as Alcoron."

Chapter 414: The tricks of the underworld

"Although we have formed an alliance now, it does not mean that I will give discounts to the people of Alcoron. This is not a rural place like yours in Alcoron. You get what you pay for. This also shows that our goods are better than those in Alcoron. good."

"Good? How much better can it be? No matter how good it is, it shouldn't be twice the price."

"If you really have doubts, I'd better ask you Alcoron to buy it."

There was no atmosphere of negotiation at all during the meeting. Rather, it was Charles who was unilaterally squeezing Cook.

Halfway through the meeting, Nina has a difficult decision to make.

"Cook, yes, do you want me to wait outside."

Nina's suggestion was flatly rejected by Cook.

"No, Miss Nina, please stay by my side."

Cook's voice was decisive, without the slightest room for compromise.It sounds powerful.

After Cook finished speaking, Nina noticed that Charles looked at herself with that look of contempt again.

Nina seems to have heard Charles' heartfelt voice.

'Dirty Orc'

As a result, the negotiations on the first day broke up unhappy, and the business was not concluded.

"Cook, Cook? What to do?"

Nina asked Cook worriedly.

Cook clenched his fists.

"I must. I don't believe it. I can't get sugar and flour."

Looking at Cook's angry back, Nina felt a needle-pricking pain in her chest.

Self-blame and guilt kept coming up, almost swallowing Nina.

It's me....giving Cook trouble.

I made Cook's work difficult.

She is indeed a woman who cannot bring luck to important people.

.........

After Cook and Nina left, Charles walked out of the Chamber of Commerce with his arms around the woman.

The old shopkeeper asked Charles anxiously.

"Lord Charles, how could you let go of such a big sponsor? If this business is negotiated, it will be more than our income in half a year. You raised the price too harshly. The only reason the customers are not scared away by you is to blame."

Charles signaled to the old shopkeeper that there was no need to worry.

"Don't worry. That stinky brat will come again. I saw in him the desire to buy things. He will definitely buy sugar and flour. But the orc, it's disgusting. Just looking at her makes me change." I got impatient and couldn't help raising the price... Now, it's okay for Alcoron's dog to appear in the sacred Dalabon. Even those demihumans are walking on our streets casually. A The thought of breathing the same air as them makes me want to throw up."

"Yes, yes."

"Yes, yes."

The old butler and the woman echoed Charles.

"Beastmen, they shouldn't be equal to humans at all. They brought beasts with them like human women, that Cook is really perverted. I really don't like Alcolon dogs."

Charles said viciously again, and then spat in the direction Cook and Nina left.

In the past, Darabonba's policies were less liberal than Alcoron's.

In the beginning, the wise king allowed the demi-humans to enter Alcoron in order to improve the national power.As long as they contribute to the country, even demi-humans are eligible to become citizens of Alcoron.

The broad-minded and hospitable Alcoronians are also rare in the Eastern Continent who can readily accept the existence of demihumans.Therefore, the first choice of demihumans exiled from other continents is generally Alcoron.

Alcoron is also the country that accepts the most Asians and treats them the best among the countries in the Eastern Continent.

But Dalabang, who is already the strongest in the Eastern Continent, firmly refuses the entry of Asians.What unites the people of Dalabangba is a strong belief in power.The Dalabangba people, who have infinite pride in their strength, think that they are the most advanced race in the world, and it is difficult for them to accept other races.

When they were hostile to Alcoron, the people of Dalabunba hated the demihumans more than the people of Alcoron.

Not only will the gate of Dalabang not be open to demi-humans, even demi-human slaves will not be accepted.

Some extreme people even think that demihumans are beasts and lowly existences.They believe that demihumans are not worthy of wearing the same clothes and eating the same food as humans, and not worthy of living in the same space as humans.

Asian humans are not even as good as pigs and dogs, and they are not even worthy of being people's playthings.

This kind of concept is especially obvious among some nobles who are pampered and have nothing to do all day long.Among ordinary people, it is not so strong.

Charles was one of these nobles.

Unlike Cook's background, Charles, who started out as a big aristocratic family, took over the family's largest commercial union with little effort.Then, relying on his talent, he can manage the chamber of commerce in a decent manner.

Such Charles can be said to be a born winner.It is an existence favored by God.

The smooth sailing made Charles' already proud self-esteem even more proud.Personality has also become more extreme.

Originally, the Alcoronians, who had always hated them, became allies because of their alliance.

The thought of being on an equal footing or even doing business with these lowly races was enough to make Charles irritable.

The orcs also appeared majestically in the space they lived in.This is absolutely intolerable.

Thinking of the appearance of that cat man again, Charles felt even more nauseated and wanted to vomit.

Although only the female part is very good.It is not wrong to say that it is difficult to choose one beauty out of thousands of people.
