The Sage of Einar
Chapter 211 - The First Commercial Treaty Of The Tribe 1/2When Darían finished paying for the wooden figurines he had bought, he said goodbye to the beautiful woman and started walking towards another stall, which was selling some wooden furniture.
Upon arriving at the stall, he looked in detail at the quality of the furniture and after giving them a few small strokes with his hand; he realized that you are a fairly high quality although he kept his face as serious as possible because he knew that if he showed interest he would not get an ideal price .
"I can see that you have high-quality furniture, but what price could you give me if I buy all your furniture?"
The stall manager just smiled "That will depend entirely on your attitude. I am an extremely dedicated craftsman so I know the price of my products, but if we are talking about you want to buy all my furniture.
I can give you a good discount so that you can resell them at a fairly high profit. "
Darían was quite surprised because he never thought that the craftsman knew how to talk about business "I see that this is not the first time that you deal with merchants like me, right?"
The craftsman just laughed "Usually I would let one of my sons run the market stall, but because they are all warriors, they have to work in their respective areas.
So I can only take care of it myself, but answering your question is not the first time that I deal with merchants, but since I have received orders from Herald Einar, let's just say that I have learned a lot of knowledge about the best way to sell my products.
Also let's be honest, when you take this merchandise you are going to resell it at a much higher price than what you are buying it, but as a sign of goodwill on my part I can give you a little more discount on each piece individually.
That way we all win and maybe we can start a long-term cooperation. "
Darían gave some applause as he was quite surprised by everything the craftsman said "I am glad that you are a craftsman and not a merchant, otherwise I think we would have many hours of conversation to get a fair price for both of us.
But since we are talking about costs, I would like to start to know what price all your merchandise has so that I can collect the silver coins to buy them. "
The craftsman who had a face full of security and happiness inside was quite nervous because many of the things he said had been turned on by the strange and peculiar way of speaking that Einar had.
'To think that it was enough to say a few words at random and that they sound coherent, while showing a face with confidence to be able to get a good sale, although it was somewhat complicated, it was worth it.'
After a while and having paid for all the furniture that the craftsman had on display, Darían and his guards continued their way through the various stalls while buying everything they considered necessary.
From crafts to furs, any object that Darían could see was bought. His fascination with shopping only ended when morning arrived. At that moment he was already too tired, so in one of the market stalls he bought some crackling seal and sat on a chair to rest.
As he bit into the crackling he looked at Devon "I think we spent a fair amount of silver today, but I am absolutely sure it was worth it.
Only in all the wooden crafts I could get double the profit, that is a real joy, but I suppose that all the good things have to end, I want you to inform the entire crew to prepare their clothes and take baths well in 3 days we will leave the port.
Tomorrow I will try to reach an agreement with Einar, so they may have to work quite a bit to upload the goods I buy with him, although I would really like to stay longer.
I think the faster we get back and bring everything we need, the more silver and gold we can earn into our pockets. "
Devon scratched his cheek and looked seriously at Darían "If I may ask, I'd like to know what we have to do with all the things we've seen here.
We have to keep quiet and say nothing of what we observe or we have to support his words when he comes to speak with his father. "
Darían sighed and raised his head to look at the morning sky "We will have to keep quiet for the moment, because all the information we can say can get us in real trouble.
The only way in which we do not suffer any consequences is if the trade route that we were able to open has a large amount of income, that way we can win the support of the Council.
Well, I am sure that no one would mind generating a lot of silver and gold coins anyway; I am almost certain that they will end up ignoring anything they hear from this island.
Because it is too far from our catchment area. "
After those words Darían got up from his chair and stretched out his hands "Now we will only have to inform Einar about tomorrow and I think we can be hanging around the tribe while we enjoy our day."
In the Great Hall during the morning of a new day, some strange noises could be heard coming from the kitchen, this due to the fact that Einar and Darían were inside staring at each other while Aila wrote in a notebook each of the proposals of the two.
Although they were both somewhat tired because they had been talking since dawn, neither wanted to get up from their chair because they feared that by doing so they would lose their ability to negotiate that they had.
Staring at each other, they said their last proposals that they had to add in the final contract that would be made, when they finished speaking Aila looked at them with a forced smile and prepared her throat as she planned to repeat the proposals to see if the two agreed.
