Chapter 176 (1/2)
After the deal with Donne, both sides were happy.
At least on the surface.
Oberli got the opportunity to retain Elsa. Adrian successfully despised oberli's IQ. Donne obtained the property right of a shop. At the same time, he also successfully used Elsa to tie oberli and Adrian to his own pirate ship.
Well, it seems a little ugly to use, but Elsa has really contributed. She has played her greatest value as a mascot at the moment.
Thinking that he might need aubury and Adrian to take care of the shops in the future, Donne pondered and thought of the common means used by businessmen on earth to bind the two sides with interests.
As the saying goes, there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests. As long as there are interests to earn, even if Tang en doesn't speak, they will take the initiative to maintain the shop, which can save him a lot of heart.
So, Donne decided to actively sell some benefits to get their longer and more stable support.
”Two dukes.”
Donne smiled and said, ”the business of the shop is really troublesome to you. In order to express my gratitude, I am willing to give you two 20% of the profits...”
Hilton nodded secretly. Lord, you are a gifted genius!
Without a teacher, you know the importance of buying people's hearts!
Although the 20% profit is a lot, it is nothing compared with the support of the two dukes. What they can bring is far more than the 20% profit.
”Bang.”
O'brie disdained: ”forget it, I haven't paid attention to your profit.”
Adrian laughed: ”yes, with your wealth, the money you earn is not enough. We'd better keep it ourselves.”
”Oh.”
Donne nodded and said with a smile, ”this is what you said. Don't regret it.”
O'brie looked disdainful: ”hum, if you can make me regret, what if Elsa gives it to you!”
”That's a good thing to say, but...” Adrian stared at obery. ”Don't you really blush when you bet on my granddaughter?”
”Do you think we'll regret it?”
”Of course not.”
”That's enough!”
”But it always feels like you made some bad decision.”
”It must be an illusion, because you are old.”
In fact, why did Donne give them a profit share? They're not stupid. Why don't they know? However, in their eyes, they really didn't pay attention to Donne's family property, so they simply refused.
The running water of these big families is not recorded in millions of gold coins. It's just a shop... Ha ha.
What's more, accepting the achievement is an additional responsibility. No matter how much you earn, you must do your duty, because it is related to the commitment of an aristocrat.
Now they refuse to share, just for Elsa's face, they are interested in management, and they go to the theatre when they are not interested. How free.
Donne doesn't insist on this. He really has something. He can't solve it, but he's just too lazy to bother.
”Today I'll ask the housekeeper to check the appropriate shop. The results will be available tomorrow. You can stay here first today.”
Although he said so, aubury's eyes were clearly urging Donne to know himself and get out of here. I won't send it.
Donne's eyes sharpened.
So
Donne said with a smile, ”thank you very much. Oh, you don't know it's difficult to find a place to live in arlinks, huh? Duke, I don't know if there is any real estate for sale in the garden area? We can be neighbors.”
Hilton almost laughed. On the way here, the LORD already knew the situation in the garden area. Of course, he was joking.
Audrey and Adrian almost vomited blood when they heard the speech. Are the properties here in the garden area for sale!? That's all from the royal family!
Even if it is, can he afford it with his wealth?
It's worthy of being the hillbilly Lord who ran out of Ellington
That night, Donne and his family lived in the foal family. The people of the two families went out together and held a warm and rich party, which also let Donne see for the first time what life is like in prandal, the world's upper class society.
The chefs made all kinds of fresh and juicy meat into barbecue chops, meat pies, fried meat segments, etc., accompanied by some delicious and rare accompanying fruits. In addition to those meat, the staple food was all kinds of baked bread and thick soup. However, to Donne's surprise, he found that the chefs here could cook barley porridge, which moved him to drink two bowls
After this period of life, don has understood why the staple food here in prandal is meat.
Because human beings in this world want to be strong, they must keep exercising, and in this process, the supplementary energy must keep up with the consumption, and meat has a natural advantage.
As for obesity, in addition to these nobles, it's not easy for civilians to pick out a fat man
”Two dukes, this is a little gift for me. Please.”
Donne took out the previously unfavourable artifact new moon wine, and planned to further develop a good relationship with obery and Adrian.
”Crescent wine?”
O'brie and Adrian were just surprised, and then saw o'brie curl his mouth: ”take it back.”
”Oh?”
Donne raised his eyebrows: ”the Duke doesn't think the wine is good enough?”
”Crescent wine, how many people dare to say bad?”
