Chapter 9: Refining a Lapis Lazuli I (2)


    In fact, in the novel [Fallen Warrior], there were stories about people who made a whopping 100-fold profit from Eastern Traders, so it was worth investing enough to make a lot of money.


    And today.


    In Bahamuts hands was the news he had been waiting for all along regarding the Eastern Traders.


    Finally, the announcement is out.


    Yes, it is, sir.


    At Bahamuts words, Ashbel also said with a look full of anticipation.


    It was one of the businesses that his Lord has been interested in ever since he came to his senses.


    It was an announcement about the recruitment of investors for Eastern Traders by the Uranus Merchant Company, one of the giant merchantpanies of the Holy Empire.


    In terms of size, it was one of the continentsrgest, evenrger than Bahamuts Beden Merchant Company. Moreover, it had a solid foundation holding more than half of themercial district of the Holy Empire in the center of the continent.


    It was obvious that investors would flock to the trade led by the Uranus Merchant Company, and as it had already hit the jackpot with trade sess without a single failure several times in the past, it could be said that not only its reputation but also the objective probability of sess was very high.


    <em>Like Kitcoin, it has a 100% chance of making a profit so of course, people would gather like clouds, right?</em>


    With that thought in mind, Bahamut slowly began reading the contents of the announcement once again.


    Basically, the Uranus Merchant Companys stake was set at 40%, and investors could buy the remaining 60%.


    However, in order to prevent excessivepetition, each investor or merchantpany could not purchase more than 5% of the shares, no matter what.


    In addition to that, Bahamut nodded slowly as he read the details such as the time and ce of the auction and other minor regtions, such as [Even if the trade failspletely, we cannot be held ountable.]


    <em>Certainly she seem to have prepared very well. Really well prepared that woman.</em>


    As he recalled the description of the woman he had read in the novel, a smile slowly began to form on Bahamuts lips.


    Then, I will prepare someone to send right away. Since the auction will be held in the Holy Empires Vienna, we cannot dy


    No, there is no need for that.


    Yes? What did you not intend to invest here?


    Ashbel was bewildered by his Lords unexpected words.


    Looking at him, Bahamut spoke in a bright voice.


    I intend to invest, so I will go they myself.


    Yes?


    Get ready, a few days now, we head to Vienna.


    Ah.. yes! I understand, Lord!


    At Bahamuts words, Ashbel responded with surprise and a little joy at the same time.


    ***


    Vienna, the capital of the Holy Empire.


    It was a strategically important ce bordering the Dragona Empire.


    As one of themercial centers of the continent, this city was always overflowing with numerous merchants and the goods they brought.


    Silk! Silk from the East! We invite only those who know the price!


    Buy flowers! Flowers! Not just any flowers! There Tulips are rare items that can only be found in the Tarkic Empire! Its popr even among nobles, so make sure to get one for your home!


    Heydy, why dont you take a look at this? This is the Mermaids Tears, the finest pearl ne imported from the Dragona Empire. They say it brings good luck, so you should buy one too!


    It was a hub for merchants aiming to sell high-end goods imported from other regions.


    As she casually passed between the stalls, Ophelia quickly made her way to where her Lord was waiting.


    Im back, my Lord.


    Yeah, good work. Did you get what I had asked for?


    Yes, merchants from the Dragona Empire were selling them at surprisingly low prices.


    With those words, Ophelia carefully took something out.


    A deep smile began to form on Bahamuts lips as he looked at the thing contained in a small bottle.


    What is that Lord? The sale of equity rights will start in two days, but youve been looking for this ever since you came here


    The Bahamuts party had arrived ahead of schedule at Vienna.


    However, since he came here, Bahamut has been diligently searching for something by dispatching Ophelia and other subordinates.


    So Ashbel couldnt hold back his curiosity and asked a question, and Bahamut looked at him and said with a deep smile on his lips.


    It is the key. A key to opening a treasure chest containing immeasurable riches.<hr>
