But he hadn't forgotten why he came, and he spoke up.
“Mr. Victor, our goods have been delivered, but no one has come forward to contact us yet.”
"This is really strange."
Without a designated contact person, it means that no one will pay the final payment for this batch of goods, and they will be unable to unload those goods.
Upon hearing this, Viktor crossed one leg, leaned back, placed his hands on his leg, and lowered his eyebrows slightly.
He looked at the businessman and narrowed his eyes:
What goods did we buy?
"Abundant black jade, purple iron, and star-patterned ore."
Viktor nodded upon hearing the information.
These are indeed the materials they need.
Making guns doesn't just require the natural energy of the elves; that's only the final step.
They need these special ores to polish the guns.
While the spirits are important, the materials are equally important.
Victor then asked:
Who was the person you were in contact with before?
"yes……"
At this point, Dill stood there dumbfounded, pondering:
"The previous contact person...?"
He tried hard to recall it, but no matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't remember.
Suddenly, an idea filled his mind.
Who else in the Clevina family, besides Earl Victor, could handle such a large business?
Thinking about it, Dill broke out in a cold sweat.
The only person who could have purchased such a large quantity of materials was Viktor himself.
So, the person responsible for this shipment is Viktor himself!?
It was incredibly foolish of him to actually come to Viktor's door to ask him questions.
He should have come to see Count Victor in person long ago, bringing the contract and order with him.
Dill lowered his head hurriedly, sweating profusely, his body trembling slightly under Victor's gaze.
“I’m very sorry, Count Victor, I was rude.”
Fortunately, the Earl wouldn't care about a nobody like him; Victor simply snapped his fingers.
Then, Vanilla came down from upstairs.
A petite white catgirl, dressed in a maid outfit, walked up to Victor.
She bowed respectfully to Victor:
"Master, please give your orders."
Dill glanced up at the catgirl, surprised.
I had long heard that the head of the Clevina family had a fondness for demi-humans, especially underage demi-humans.
This rumor is not entirely unfounded.
Such news is no secret among vendors.
Then, Viktor's voice rang out:
"Xiang Zilan, take him to settle the final payment for the materials, and then send someone to bring the goods back."
"From now on, you will temporarily take over the family business. I believe you can do it."
Vanilla bowed respectfully and agreed:
"yes."
Then she walked up to Dill and said:
"Sir, please follow me."
Dill looked at the petite demi-human in front of him, who was dressed in a respectful and elegant manner, and was somewhat bewildered.
Is this really a demi-human?
He had also encountered slave traders before, but the demi-humans under their command did not possess such a polite demeanor.
It can only be said that the Clevner family's ability to train demi-humans is indeed as astonishing as rumored.
He breathed a slight sigh of relief; at least the head of the Clavner family in front of him wasn't angry.
'If I get the chance, I'll buy a few underage demi-humans from a friend and send them over.'
With that thought in mind, Dill stood up.
He removed his top hat from Viktor, leaned slightly forward, and bowed.
"Then I'll be leaving now."
"It's a pleasure doing business with you, Count Victor."
Dill put his hat back on and left with Vanilla.
Victor sat on the sofa, watching Dill leave quietly, his demeanor extremely calm.
Vega flapped her wings and landed on Victor's shoulder.
A hoarse voice rang out:
"Well, I've come to understand your sister's influence to some extent."
After Leah disappeared, the entire Clavner family fell into chaos.
It would be fine if this businessman came directly to our door, but Victor was able to handle it personally.
However, many businessmen who worked with the Clevner family were at a loss when faced with huge orders.
With Liya's disappearance, they were completely unable to find their contact.
Even the workers and servants didn't know who to report to after they finished their work.
For a time, the entire management of the Clevner family was paralyzed.
If it weren't for the Clevner family's considerable reputation and the presence of Victor at the mansion,
Otherwise, the workers and servants would have been in complete chaos long ago.
"Everyone has forgotten Lia; it's as if her existence has been erased."
Viktor spoke softly, as if talking to himself.
"Fortunately, I haven't forgotten."
He stood up again, hands in his pockets.
His gaze followed several workers carrying a tall, vertical mirror as they stepped through the gates of the Clevner mansion.
Victor looked into the mirror, his eyes sharp and deep, and slowly said:
"We've found her."
