Chapter 208: Victory Dinner (3)
“Ugh, wahhhhhh!”
"Wait till you have swallowed your mouth before you speak, Fino."
The orc girl who was quietly enjoying the food became a little flustered.
When they walked towards the king, they would certainly attract everyone's attention. But on such an occasion, Ye Kai would not talk about complicated things. They would only simply thank him for the invitation.
However, someone present did something slightly different. That was Princess Nicole.
"Boring. You haven't come to play with me lately, and I feel lonely."
"If I let that beautiful girl serve me, I will no longer have any requests? This is really cold and indifferent."
"Nike, Ye Kai also has his own things to do. Please forgive me."
"I'm very sorry, Mrs. Nickel. I'm not living in Holmt right now, so I've lost contact. I'll visit you when the time is right. I've prepared a gift, too, so please forgive me."
Cham was stunned when she heard this conversation. The princess she knew was always a smiling and polite woman next to Albert. Therefore, she always thought that Princess Nicole was a modest woman who would not take the initiative to show off.
Only now did he realize that he had misunderstood her character. When he saw the close relationship between Ye Kai and Nicky, he couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied.
"If I disturb you, then I will withdraw? You two enjoy yourself."
“That’s not what I meant.”
Recalling the time when Ye Kai suddenly left for something during their previous stop in Holmt, she began to suspect that he might be going to where Nicky was.
But seeing that Albert knew about the close relationship between Ye Kai and Nikki, she understood that this was not a frivolous topic.
“I’m sorry for saying something inappropriate.”
“It doesn’t matter, because we didn’t talk about anything.”
Seeing Cham's slightly unhappy expression, Fino made up his mind.
"It's like an obligation to accompany you here, but we don't need to cooperate with Holzlein's arrangements afterwards. How about going fishing the day after tomorrow or tomorrow? I'll take you to the fishing spot I often go to."
“Really? I definitely will! I love it so much!”
When it comes to things she enjoys, Cham seems easily satisfied.

"Brother Ye Kai, good evening."
It was Tanya who did the standard bow.
As the daughter of the Baden Chamber of Commerce, the Crown Prince's personal merchant, she has already made her debut in the social world. Recently, Tanya has not only become a close friend of Prince Senna, but has also gradually become famous in the social circles of the royal palace.
Although this might cause the envy and jealousy of the children of the nobility, her pride seemed to prevent her from obviously ignoring those of commoner origin.
What's more, the Baden Chamber of Commerce itself is growing at a rapid pace, and it is said that they have close dealings with the Magic Boxer. These rumors have also protected her from some bad speculations.
"It's late at night, is Tanya okay?"
I touched her head and asked her if she was okay, she answered firmly.
"Ms. Sena is also working hard. I also want to show my strength."
"Very trustworthy, Mr. Ollie."
"That's true, but I'm a little busy right now and can't be with you properly. I feel a little bad about that."
“That’s a real nuisance.”
"It's all your partner's fault, Chaim."
Ye Kai naturally brought the reverse bracelet from Oli. Of course, he also dealt with craftsmen and engravers, and his main employees were warehouse managers. There was no shortage of production and sales of reverse bracelets.
Although he saw its true value when he was brought here, after actually demonstrating several trial products, he was troubled by the overwhelming response.
It is easy to understand that using this reversal bracelet can greatly reduce transportation costs. By using the reversal bracelet, the main labor cost of warehouse managers can be minimized.
If you are willing, you can even do it yourself. If you can regard the high-priced products as an initial investment, the benefits are unparalleled.
The only disadvantage is that its strength is that “anyone can use it”. This poses a safety hazard. If you are a warehouse manager, you will not release the goods without the employer’s instructions unless you feel your life is in danger.
However, the reverse bracelet allows anyone to easily remove the goods. Compared with kidnapping the warehouse keeper, stealing the reverse bracelet is cheaper, and the attacker can be a small number of people.
Despite repeated warnings about the risks at the presentation, there was no way to contain the sensation the reverse bracelet caused in the business community.
"I'm really busy dealing with purchase requests, price inquiries, and manufacturing method inquiries all day long. I'm busy all day long."
After saying this, Ollie let out a long sigh.
"Just now, several presidents of major chambers of commerce came to see me in a queue. They said it was like queuing in front of His Majesty. I told them that the production quantity could not be increased."
“Is it a matter of restrictions?”
“No, it’s not.”
The "warehouse" magic used to reverse the bracelet can only be activated by the description mark engraved by Ye Kai. And this description mark is also engraved on the inside of the mithril stick using deformation magic. It can only be activated by injecting magic power into the activation line on the surface, and it cannot be imitated.
Even if he bribed the manufacturer, it would be impossible to steal the description. This enabled him to establish a system of exclusive production and sales.
"You only gave me two engraving sticks, right? According to the engraver, reverse engraving requires considerable concentration. In any case, mass production is not easy."
"Oh, I see. Was it custom made for this?"
“But is it really okay to only charge 50% of the royalties? Although I am happy with the product with such a high profit margin, I would also feel a little embarrassed.”
"No problem. This is just the financial source of the Ludo Foundation. Due to the nature of the organization, too much profit can easily lead to bad rumors. Well, although making money is no problem, please take care of Tanya who works hard and buy her some beautiful clothes."
After that, they shook hands and smiled.
"I can buy a few of these things at random."
"Representative, my father wants to say hello to you, is that ok?"
Ira came over with a middle-aged gentleman.
“Oh, sorry. I was planning to come in person.”
"No, no, since it is my daughter who is under your care, I should come. I am Muriel Craps. Please give me your advice, Your Highness Ye Kai."
He looked like a gentleman, but there was something unusual in the gleam in his eyes.
"This is His Royal Highness Ollie of Baden. Excuse me."
"I was just complaining."
“Is that the case?”
“As you would expect.”
Krampus of the Grand Chamber of Commerce certainly wouldn't be completely ignorant of the information, so Ollie's predicament was self-evident.
