Chapter 108 Preparation

"Ash Rufate," Ajin's face filled with an incredible expression. "If there is a mountain of gold around you, will you get rich? In this case," Ajin shouted. "It's hard not to get rich!"

"Will such a business license... be valuable?"

"Value! How come this is not valuable... Wait, Ashu Rufat, why did you ask me this? You wouldn't tell me that you happen to have such a business license, right?"

"In fact, because of a chance reason..." Ashu Rufate said. "I got a few license documents for the Elf Prince Ashu Rufate." He paused. "Don't ask me how I got it, it was a complete accident and coincidence."

"Ah...ah..." Ah Jin's eyes suddenly shone with light. His saliva almost flowed out. "Ash Rufat, you wouldn't lie to me, right?"

If it weren't for the table, maybe Ajin had already pounced on him and grabbed Ash Rufate's collar so that he could hand over the permit documents quickly.

"In fact, I don't know if that's true." As Ash Rufate said, he took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Ajin. The letter was the type that was not sealed. The latter immediately opened the envelope and couldn't wait to check it out.

The letter was full of the words of the Elf clan. However, Ajin looked at the words excitedly, and his expression made people almost unable to believe that he actually couldn't understand it.

"A letter written in the elves," said Ashrufate. "It is a letter of commitment, which roughly means that the human being who came to the letter will purchase and sell any goods at will within the elves, in accordance with the laws and customs of the elves for a period of one year. The vacancy in the middle was deliberately left for people to fill in time."

"Ah...ah..." A Jin made such a meaningless voice while looking carefully. Although he couldn't understand at all.

"Ajin, let me remind you that I don't know if this letter is reliable." Ashrufate said.

"Ash Rufat, what do you mean..." Ajin put down the letter, but his face was still red, and he was so excited that he seemed to have drunk a large glass of wine. "Send this letter to me?"

"Ah, I'm sorry, Ajin, actually I..." Ashu Rufat said. "I'm short of money now!"

"Do you want a loan? Don't worry, a high-quality customer like you..." Ajin said excitedly. He held the letter, his cautious look, just like he was holding a precious piece of jewelry in his hand. Just a little bit, he would stuff the letter into his pocket.

"No, Ajin, it's not that I'm personally short of money, but... the Queen." Ashu Rufate finally made it clear.

The next second, he saw Ajin's expression fading quickly.

"Ash Rufat... Well... you are now a senior official of Groone... so you know... the Queen owes a lot of debts. What's worse is that in this situation, no one dares to continue to lend money to the government, because 90% of them cannot be collected. Not to mention borrowing money, not to mention repaying the debt in advance is a very favorable face."

"I know," Ash Rufate replied. "But... the problem is, I really need a sum of money."

"I'm afraid it's really difficult." A Jin hesitated for a moment and finally answered like this.

"So I hope to sell all these letters... Prince Ash Rufate's authorization documents.... Of course, before selling them, I must confirm whether this thing is a valid document."

"Ah..." A Jin replied. "I understand what you mean...you ask me..."

"A Jin, for the sake of my friend, please help me. You can find a few reliable people... to determine the authenticity of this letter. The faster the better..."

"This is simple!" Ajin thought for a moment. "If you are sure that this document is true, then..."

"Then I will hold an auction!" Ashu Rufate smiled, "Of course, we have entrusted our chamber of commerce to host."

Ajin's eyes instantly shone with radiance. "No problem." He immediately put away the letter. "I will confirm it as soon as possible."

"By the way, there's another thing," said Ashu Rufate. "Have our chamber of commerce completely controlled all the channels for the circulation of magic scrolls?"

"I dare not say that far away. At least I can monopolize the territory of Groney and Tiberius." As he said this, Ajin immediately became furious. "To be honest, you may not be able to guess the benefits... I am still laying out channels now, and the benefits are still average, but it only takes half a year to get the existing magic scrolls basically consumed. At that time, they will have to buy them from me. The price is entirely up to me... Haha..."

"A Jin, I have an idea, can you... sell me the scroll?"

"Of course, good friends will get 20% off for a lifetime." Ajin didn't hesitate for a second. "But you have to trade cash..."

"So, can you purchase messaging reels from me?"

"What does it mean? Ashu Rufat, you just said you bought it from me... Well, it doesn't matter. My good friend will always receive a 20% discount. As long as your price does not exceed the price on the church, there will definitely be no problem. Of course, I will pay it in cash."

"Not that, Ajin, I mean... you sell me the reel, and then I sell you the reel. How much does a reel cost now?"

"Ah, the current market price is not very high. If you sell it to you, I will only charge eighty big gold ore. If you buy it..." Ajin hesitated for a moment, "I am willing to pay seventy-five gold ore. This is a very fair price. I have to pay extra for channels and risks... Wait, Ashu Rufate, what do you mean? You sell it to me? I sell it to you?"

"That's right, I have an idea, that is, you sell me those magical messaging scrolls...and I... and I'll sell them back to you after a little transformation. I promise that scrolls can still be used, but..."

"Ashu Rufat, you misread me. I, Ajin, are you the kind of profiteer who can mix inferior goods into high-quality goods and sell them to customers? This is a matter of principle, and I will never agree." Ajin said righteously. "This behavior violates business ethics. My father told me, 'Ajin, a businessman must be honest'..."

However, Ashu Rufate is now very familiar with Ajin, so he is not shaken by Ajin's answer at all.

"A Jin, as an excellent businessman, I believe you will definitely have a solution. On the one hand, you meet my requirements, and on the other hand, you will not affect your principles."

"…this…well, Ashu Rufate, if your repurchase price is low enough, then things are easy to do."

“The buyback price is low enough?”

"I need a low enough repurchase price. For example, you spend eighty gold orely from me to buy reels, and then I buy back it with forty gold orely, that's it."

"That's all?"

"Well, I can divide the magic scroll into two levels according to different prices. One is the high-quality product of Eighty King Oli, and the other is the flawed product of Fifty King Oli. This is a very common strategy in business, and no one can accuse me of violating the morality of a merchant." Ajin explained. "You understand what type they want to buy is completely free to choose from."

"Ah, I understand." Ash Rufate replied. "Very good, we can discuss this later..."

While he was talking, a servant came in at the door and made a gesture to him.

"Akin, sorry, I'm in a hurry," said Ashu Rufate. "There is a meeting that must be attended immediately."

"Ah, then I won't disturb you." A Jin also looked anxious to leave. He was also anxious to go back and confirm whether the elf prince's authorization letter was true or false.

Ashrufate watched Ajin leave, and immediately followed the aisle to another house next to it. Here is a relatively hasty meeting room, which was already full.

When Ashurufate entered the door, almost everyone's eyes were focused on him. He ignored the many gazes and came directly to the top of the conference table. According to etiquette and custom, this position has always been left to the host of the conference.

"Everyone," Ash Rufate looked at the participants calmly. These people looked all kinds of, different in height, fat and thin, and had a lot of age. A large part of them were even old people. "I will introduce myself. I am the governor of the Falcon City, Ash Rufate, who was appointed by Her Majesty the Queen. The reason I summoned you all because I need your assistance for the moment."

He tapped the table with his finger. "I guess everyone knows why I am looking for everyone. Actually, I don't want to hide it. Yes, you are all officials of Groone, or who used to be Groone, but because of the exclusion and framed by the traitor Byron, I have to leave my post. Here I will first apologize to you on behalf of the Queen. Because of the failure to discover Byron's conspiracy to rebel, it is a mistake to let everyone here, the loyal Groone's people, be treated unfairly. Fortunately, Byron failed to rebel and took away his best friends, because on behalf of Her Majesty the Queen, I announced that from now on, all officials will be restored! I hope everyone can assist me and manage the royal city well."

He picked up a list of already prepared and began to pronounce them one by one. Those were the names of everyone here and the official positions they had held. To be honest, this was entirely due to the help of Rotia. If it weren't for her, Ashu Rufate wouldn't have found all these available personnel in such a short time. These people can be said to have solved one of Ashu Rufate's biggest troubles. They didn't need training or started working again. They were all familiar with each other and could start working immediately.

Although Byron took away the city officials, it was actually easy to find a group of people to replace them. However, being able to find a suitable replacement in such a short time was indeed a great success.

"Daken...the dock tax collector..." Ashu Rufate quickly read the list. From his clothes, it can be seen that most of these people are small nobles or civilians, and are all locals. After resigning or retirement, their lives in Eagle City were not particularly good. They all seemed a little excited when they were entrusted again this time, and no one had any special opinions.
