Chapter 106: Fishing for Gold Ao, Part Two
"How many times did you say this have been? Since you always cross the lake, why didn't the Queen buy a boat directly? Even this pier is hers... It's better to hire a few more people so that we can also taste the taste of the salary of the country."
Hearing the familiar sound of horse hooves tapping sounded at the end of the street, a boatman guarding Bowlland Pier and his colleagues beside him teased half-complainted.
"It's Her Majesty, not the Queen... You can't tell the name clearly, you won't expect to get a national salary in your life." The colleague corrected, but he also nodded and said, "Who said no... I have to cross the lake once a day, sometimes twice. Isn't this a waste of money!
If I ask me, who doesn't know about her and the foreigner? Stop hiding and just live together! Are there few nobles who Bowl has been fooled by? The baron is one of the few serious people. Now I'm tired of watching it every day... I heard that the warlock is a good person. If they get married, I will definitely bless them."
As the conversation was over, the sound of horse hooves turned around the corner, and four horses were running towards this side, carrying two veiled women and two fully armed guards.
The soldiers on the dock tacitly isolated the idle people and others. The boatmen also stood up straight and tried to park their boats more beautifully, hoping to be selected by the baron.
Although the queen was covered with a veil, she was not Clark Kent. No one knew that he was Superman when wearing glasses. Everyone in the audience knew that the one who was walking in the front was Her Majesty the Baron, and the one who was slightly behind was her personal maid, and then the captain of the guard and another guard... but everyone had to try to pretend that they couldn't recognize him.
"Prepare a boat for me, that one...I want to cross the lake immediately!" said Dame Anna with a sensual pride. She has been in this state of mind recently.
"Yes, Miss Sylvia." Several boatmen agreed, remembering the "identity" that Dame Anna emphasized several times.
As the boatman was sorting the boat, Anna looked around, and there was a smile on her lips. She could personally detect that she was in a very good mood. "Old Qiao, your boat leaked, and she dared to carry me across the lake last time!"
The man named Lao Qiao was shocked.
Before he could beg for mercy, a small purse was thrown into his arms, "I will renovate what you give me, and do business well in the winter... Tosent will get better and better." Old Qiao said when he heard the beautiful voice of Her Majesty the Baron.
"Thank you! Thank you Your Majesty... Thank you Miss Sylvia!" Old Qiao was so grateful.
Dame Anna got on the boat happily and was in a good mood again... Why was she so happy? Because she got rich! To this day, even the baron, she, has to sigh that women's money is really easy to make!
In three months, she spent less than 10,000 kroners on cosmetics! In less than three months, she worked as a first-level cosmetics agent, and famous paintings, jewelry and gold coins with a total value of over one million kroners were flocked to her small vault!
You should know that this money belongs to her personally. She doesn't like the annuity of tens of thousands of kronors per year in the royal family at all. She is the one who is rich enough to match the country.
You should know that when Anna was still a little luoli, her father once took five crowns and said to her, "Anna, sell me a bottle of red wine, will Dad give you five crowns?" At that time, Anna was worried about her sister's affairs, so she looked at her dad lazyly and ignored him. So her father sighed, "It seems that Anna has no business talent, so she still has to find a husband who can support the country in the future."
Now Dame Anna understands it, his bullshit business talent! My dad probably pretends to understand... Five kroners, just a fool sells you red wine! Is the price of wine in the palace less than fifty kroners? You see, it is involved in a big business with million kroners now. I don’t settle the “sales commission” with Chen Yan every day before going to bed, and I can’t sleep!
This is business talent!
****
His Majesty Anna, who claims to be a fond of art and is not a common person, has now been so hooked up by Chen Yan that he has completely fallen into the eyes of money.
In the past, when she saw a painting, she would evaluate whether it was beautiful or not, and analyze it from an artistic perspective; now she saw a painting subconsciously assessing how much it is, whether it has collection value, whether it is put into the warehouse to appreciate or immediately cash out...
The reason why nobles are nobles is that although they don’t have much spare money in their hands, they have privileges. The accumulation of countless years will scare people even more! Although the nouveau riche is full of wallets, the nobles will take out a painting, which is enough for merchants to work for several years.
In the Middle Ages, artworks were also hard currency.
Merchants live on money, while nobles live on privilege.
In the past, Baron Anna's banquets have never cost much money, but Tosent is definitely the top banquet. Why? Because only at her banquet can you invite masters who hardly attend the banquet, be lucky enough to taste the wine monopolized by the baron, and appreciate the precious paintings collected in the office... These added value make the whole banquet cherry-eyed.
Just when everyone knew that the baron had made money, they would definitely spend money to hold a big banquet next time, and the luxury goods suppliers were all ready to go... something unexpected happened to them.
"Office...what does the free trial period for brand endorsement have passed?" The luxury goods supplier was confused.
The court housekeeper responded with contempt, "Don't think I don't know. You have made a lot of money through the name of the baron and the court purchase over the years!" If you have something to do, you must follow the situation in this country. Everyone must like to use the designated supplies of the Bowkran Palace. But in the past, Dame Anna didn't know how much benefit it contained, and she bought them all at a high price...
Now that she was awakened by Chen Yan, she realized that not only shouldn’t pay, but she should also charge advertising fees!
Because of Tosent, who else can be more famous than Anna? So the palace housekeeper notified everyone that the fool in the past woke up, and there was no free good thing! Whoever pays more will become the designated supplier of Bowklan Palace... Will Anna be afraid that others will compete with her for such a unique endorsement transaction?
"Our Anlisa brand olive supply to the palace is a three hundred years old tradition! It is not in line with the tradition when you do this!"
"Hey, you just don't see the recent announcement released by Her Majesty the Baron! Given the sluggish domestic economy of the Principality, the Queen is ready to enhance economic vitality, expand exports, and strive to create a hundred new brands! Your Majesty sets an example, start with her, what else can you bear for the overall situation? All this is the pain of reform! For a better tomorrow!"
"You win, I supply it for free, no... I pay for it..."
"Well, supporting time-honored brands is also a national policy that we have always adhered to. I will bring your sincerity to Her Majesty the Baron... the next one!"
So, women become rich if they become bad. This is true.
****
Many time-honored brands are the business of nobles, and they should not make a fuss to this extent. However, after awakening, Dame Anna felt that these people used to treat her as fools... Once things rise to dignity, then the nobles are not at all able to say anything.
Because...it's really that way.
The sales share signed by Anna and Chen Yan is about 37 yuan. She has won a million yuan in three months, and Chen Yan will only accumulate more wealth.
But in fact, this is not the case. This generous man exchanged the money he received for the commission on the bulletin board. I made another million kroner this month! I wanted to hire farmers near Bowklan to collect magical plants and minerals, and the price was better!
High-profile, show off wealth, stupid people, and have more money.
The money seemed to give the market a shot of stimulant. Farmers who got unexpected money would not help but go to have a good drink. The nobles got more money through sales and commissions, and the other part of the money flowed to the treasury through taxes. So it seemed that everyone made money. Although women in the noble family were making money, looking at the same sharp increase in income, most nobles could still accept the status quo... mainly because the entire country was showing a prosperous scene.
Cosmetics are not only tools that pay money from the aristocratic pockets, but also a new specialty added by Toustente.
Locals can see those foreign merchants holding bags of gold coins and buying all the little goods flowing out of the market. They only care whether they can buy them, but they don’t care about the price at all. Everyone realizes that the money flows into Towsonte and will eventually enter the pockets of civilians, merchants, nobles, barons and treasurys. The country will be prosperous and strong, and personal life is simply too beautiful!
