Chapter 251 Compromise?

Harley Santa Cruz walked out of the Norman family's gate with heavy steps.

The previous conversation with Kallio had not been a very pleasant one.

Although Harley had anticipated the Norman family's high negotiation terms, he still felt uneasy when he heard the price from Calio's mouth.

During the conversation with Kalio, Harley clearly saw the dissatisfaction on Kalio's face.

He knew very well that if it were not for the sake of the noble lords behind him, Kalio would probably kick him out directly.

Queen Alana had already passed the message to the Norman family. Halle Santa Cruz already knew this when Kallio walked out of the Basel Palace.

But the huge profits that can be made from selling wine are in front of everyone, so it is not surprising that Kallio shows such an attitude.

"The Norman family agreed to remove the sales counter of Moore Winery, but they asked us to compensate them with 2,000 gold coins."

In a tavern in Basel, Harley Santa Cruz took a big gulp of beer and then spoke.

Sitting opposite him was wine merchant Ernie Mphela.

Although it was an alliance of all wine merchants, in fact, the specific actions and plans were polished by the two of them.

"Two thousand gold coins..."

Ernie Mphela frowned and mused.

"Yes! Two thousand gold coins, that's too much! Even if we add up our earnings this year, we may not be able to get two thousand gold coins together. But that Kalio..."

"Give them to them!"

Ernie Mfela interrupted Harley and said in a deep voice.

"What?"

Harley Santa Cruz was stunned.

“I say… since they offered two thousand gold coins, then give it to them!” Ernie Mfela took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

"They are clearly asking for too much! And... this money must be shared by all of us! Do you think the nobles will agree?"

"meeting!"

Ernie Mphela said in a decisive tone.

Harley Santa Cruz: "...What?"

Ernie Mphela, who had always been extremely stingy, suddenly changed his personality, which made Harley a little confused for a moment.

"It seems that you have also remembered that we have the support of the nobles behind us?" Ernie Mphela snorted coldly and said, "Gold coins are certainly a good thing, but you must not forget that behind the Norman family stands Queen Alana and the royal family!"

"The Norman Family is a store under the protection of Queen Alanna. With the power of the royal family, Her Majesty the Queen could have completely ignored this. However, after hearing the nobles' complaints, she still hinted to the Norman Family to cut off the sales of Moore Wine... What is this? This is giving face to the noble master behind us!"

"Two thousand gold coins is certainly a high price, but if we keep pushing the price down, we'll be asking for more and more, and we won't know what's good for us!" Ernie Mphela looked at Harley Santa Cruz unhappily.

This guy is indeed a good businessman, but if he has to consider all these twists and turns, his brain will become a little confused.

"You mean, this money... is it the Queen's intention?"

"No matter whether it is true or not, since the Norman family has offered such a price, then just agree to it. Besides... think about how popular those packaged wines are, and you won't be so hesitant anymore!"

"In that case, then give them two thousand gold coins..." Harley paused, then said: "However... according to the Norman family, we need to give them at least seven days to clear the inventory and re-plan the counter originally used to sell wine."

“What? Don’t they agree to sell our wine?” Ernie Mphela asked puzzledly.

"Kalio claimed that all products sold in the Norman family must have a strong quality guarantee, so... he wants to observe our sales situation before making a decision..."

"Forget it, let's just follow their way... Start preparing more inventory from today. Seven days later, I will definitely let our Basel South Border wine take over the entire market again!"

Ernie Mphela waved his hands helplessly. Although seven days seemed a long time, since the Norman family had already made a compromise, it would not be a good idea to push them too hard.

After saying goodbye to Ernie Mfela, Harley finally returned to his residence in the middle of the night.

only……

Even though he had a beautiful girl in his arms, Harley had no intention of exercising at this moment.

Outside the room was a pitch-black night, and inside the room the candlelight flickered slightly. Harley couldn't help tossing and turning on his bed, thinking, and he couldn't sleep well no matter what.

Everything was developing in the direction they hoped. The Norman family no longer sold wine from the Moore Wine Company. The wine merchants in the Kingdom of Basel were forced to huddle together for warmth, waiting for a thundering attack in seven days to regain the lost market.

Logically speaking, Harley should have felt that he had won, but at this moment, he was always quite uneasy, as if he had forgotten something, neglected something...

"grown ups--"

A gentle call came from Harlin's body, and he felt a piece of soft flesh pressed tightly against his back.

The trouble in his heart made Harley extremely anxious, so he turned over suddenly and whipped him fiercely.

…

"President Kalio! President Kalio!"

Early the next morning, the staff of the Norman family knocked on Cario's door.

"What's wrong?"

Kalio sounded quite unhappy. He stayed up late last night thinking about economics, so he was suddenly woken up by the knock on the door and his thoughts were particularly confused.

"Outside...someone has brought a lot of boxes of gold coins, saying that they are paying the compensation according to yesterday's agreement!"

"What?"

Hearing this, Kalio finally got up from the bed and looked down through the window...

Oh no!

Harley Santa Cruz was standing downstairs looking around, and behind him, two fully loaded carriages were driven by the coachman and stopped at the door of the Norman family.

Kalio hurried downstairs and saw Harley coming towards him with a smile.

"Mr. Cario, according to your previous instructions, I have already brought all the 2,000 gold coins here in a carriage!"

I have an exam the day after tomorrow. I'll code these today and go do some papers (dog head saves life~)
