Chapter 165 Additional Conditions
"Okay, this is the money promised at the beginning."
It was already a day later when Honor saw the businessman Lance again. In the familiar room adjacent to the throne room, he, the elder and the elf sisters met Lance again.
This time, he took out a bag of gold coins from his pocket familiarly, and handed it to Lance.
"Gold, gold coins?!"
Lance took the heavy gold coin and was too scared to speak.
"Well, click on it, here are thirty gold coins."
Honor nodded generously: "Before you said [-] silver coins, right, more than that is your compensation."
"No, no, how can this be..." Lance held the bag of gold coins like a hot potato, not knowing where to put it.
"Well, do you think it's not enough?"
"No, no, it's too many."
Lance wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly handed it back to Honor.
"If I tell you to take it, you can take it. Why are you talking so much nonsense." Sophie couldn't stand it anymore, and approached Lance to look at the businessman fiercely.
Honor held his forehead helplessly, and said to Tamara, "Can you take Sophie, who is in the way, first?"
"Okay, Mrs. Honor... Pfft!" Tamara covered her mouth and snickered, but she couldn't hold back her voice in the end.
As soon as she grabbed Sophie's sleeve, she was about to take Sophie out of the house.
"Wait, sister, did I do something wrong again? Why didn't you let me attend the meeting!"
Sophie argued loudly while being forced to leave. Honor sighed helplessly and said to Lance, "Don't mind, her character... uh... is rather rough."
Honor recalled the first time he met Sophie, and he was afraid that her carefree and ignorant personality would not change for a while.
"Let's get back to the topic, wouldn't it be good to have more?"
Honor turned his head to look at Lance. Originally, he deliberately gave more. Generally speaking, businessmen are only interested in money. Since they want Lance to help him, it is natural that they should pay more.
Yes, this is the unspoken social rule that Honor knows.
However, judging from Lance's reaction, the situation seems to be different.
"Oh, Lord Honor, do you know how many silver coins a gold coin is worth?"
"Hmm... one hundred?" Honor asked uncertainly.
"Huh, it seems that you have some common sense." Lance smiled wryly. "The prevailing exchange ratio in the whole continent is one gold coin for one hundred silver coins, one silver coin for one hundred copper coins, and I offer three hundred silver coins, which can only be counted as three gold coins, but how much did you give?"
"I gave thirty, is there any problem?"
"Uh..." Lance seemed to feel that he and Honor were having trouble talking.
"You paid ten times more! Thirty gold coins can buy me ten carts of goods."
Lance shook his head: "I can't accept this amount."
"Hmm..." Onor hesitated, because this businessman was so upright that he didn't accept any bribes.
Honor pondered for a moment, then said: "Do you think thirty gold coins is too much?"
"Too much."
"In that case, how about using the extra money as payment for long-term trade in the future?"
"Sorry, I said earlier that long-term trade is impossible. Even if I want to agree, but now the trade route is completely blocked, and all goods will be intercepted."
"Well, I understand your difficulties. In fact, I have found an alternative."
"alternative plan?"
Not only Lance, but even Elder Nikon who had been listening in was taken aback.
"I hope you can take me to the city. I want to meet those merchants in person."
"This……"
"Master Honor... this is too dangerous!"
The elder stopped immediately.
"I'm afraid this is too difficult for you." Lance shook his head, "Since you are not human, how can I take you into a human city."
"However, there must have been other non-human races in and out of this border city before."
"Well... indeed, non-humans who can prove their identity, such as orc mercenaries and elf adventurers, may also be allowed to enter."
"Right, and I won't endanger everyone."
"This... how do you prove it." Lance was worried, and finally expressed his worries.
"I heard that the ruin of this city was caused by a golden demon, and now you live here, so I suspect..."
"Do you suspect that I destroyed this place?"
Honor asked bluntly.
Lance bit his lip, and finally nodded.
"I'm sorry, Master Honor, I can't do things that betray humans."
"Well... you really are."
Onor scratched his head, should he be called a businessman?It's too much to think about.
But Lance's consideration is not unreasonable.
After all, the destruction here is indeed directly related to Honor.
Honor had no choice but to take out the magic book from that space.
He opened the magic book and murmured, "Master God knows, turn me into his image."
As soon as Onor's words fell, his body began to change.
His body turned into a ball of golden light, and a few seconds later, a young man exactly like Lance stood in front of everyone.
"This...this is..."
Seeing such a scene, Lance took two steps back in disbelief.
Onor closed the book and raised a smile: "Look, it's very simple, just kill you, and then change into your appearance, you can easily sneak into the city, if I want, I can even your memory Got it."
"Are you..." The businessman showed fear again in his eyes.
But the next moment, the man who was exactly like him in front of him turned back into a child again.
Honor looked at him sincerely, and said to him: "Why should I ask you to agree to something that is obviously easy to do? It's just because I always have goodwill towards you and mankind. I hope to conduct fair trade with you, rather than unilateral invasion or destruction, and trade can achieve a win-win situation, which is beneficial to both parties, isn't it?"
"..." This time, Lance fell silent.
"So, I hope you can think again. I know you are a businessman who pursues justice, so you don't want to charge me more money. Then I hope you can treat human beings and races other than human beings fairly. We are born to want to destroy and destroy, and we all want to live a good life."
"..."
When Lance heard those words, his mind was full of thoughts.
Indeed, what the young man named Honor said was not wrong. If the other party had malicious intentions, he would have died long ago.
"Indeed, you are right. In this case, I will agree to take you away from the town."
"Really?" Upon hearing the other party's promise, O'Nor was so happy that he wanted to jump up.
"However, I also have an additional condition."
"What conditions?"
"If the business road can pass smoothly in the future, I want the city's exclusive agency rights for daily necessities."
"Deal!" Honor readily agreed without hesitation.
