Inventor of another world, the little female ghost wants to kidnap me
Chapter 126 More money is needed
In the carriage heading out of the city, Miss and Abed sat opposite each other.
The place they were going to was the mountaintop manor deep in the Glen Forest, where Abed lived.
Abed had a fake smile on his face, but he gave Miss a high score in his heart.
He knew that he was targeting him, yet he still dared to get on his carriage.
Abed did not think that Miss's behavior was stupid or ignorant. Instead, he saw Miss's inner strength and confidence.
Unlike Cargill, who was a loser who started to lick his boots right from the start, Miss had been talking to him as an equal from the very beginning.
Even though his identity was known and he got on his own carriage, his momentum was not inferior at all.
Abed thought that it was really unlucky for Cargill to become an opponent with such a person.
Of course, his recognition of Miss's talent was the recognition of a superior to an inferior.
Abed didn't think that Miss, a rookie, would be his opponent.
Since the Archbishop did not allow him to kill Miss, he had to think of other ways, such as developing Miss into his own tool.
According to Miss's methods, if someone really becomes his tool, he will definitely be the most useful one.
The most important point is that after Cargill's death, there was no one to help him transport the monsters. Abed needed to find a new transportation team and he set his sights on Miss.
The monsters left in her warehouse were no longer enough for Nora to eat.
That pair of different colored magic eyes, unlike all the previous magic eyes, required too much magic power. Even after feeding them for so long, Nora still couldn't break through the final barrier.
You know, I have built many monster breeding bases in the Kingdom of Firris over the years, and almost all of them were wiped out by Nora's magic eye.
Now even the warehouse at the base camp is running low, and the stock must be replenished as soon as possible.
The slave trade was only superficial; poaching and raising magical beasts were the real tasks assigned to him by the church.
When entering Abbot's mountaintop manor for the first time, Miss quietly used his magic perception to investigate the distribution of people in the manor.
There were no strong men arranged to ambush, and the people active in the manor were all maids.
The breath of the monster could not be sensed, nor could the ominous magic power on Nora.
It seems that Abed doesn't take himself, a level 3, seriously at all.
Walking into the low-key reception room, sitting on the soft sofa, and taking the black tea handed to him by the beautiful maid, Miss interrupted Abed who was about to speak.
"Mr. Abbott, there's no need to exchange pleasantries. There are some things that we both know very well. Let's get straight to the point."
Abed sneered, his eyes sharp.
"Mr. Miss, let me be frank. The president of the Harder Chamber of Commerce, Jiaji, who you brought down, is my man."
After a brief exchange of glances between the two, Mis said calmly, "So you came to me to avenge your little brother?"
Abed shook his head slightly, his eyes revealing his disdain for Cargill, “He is just a small fry, it doesn’t matter whether he lives or dies.
What I want to say is that he is a loser, but he can get to such a high position in Sojer City, all thanks to my support behind him. "
Miss's mouth corners slightly raised as he tasted the black tea.
"Mr. Abed, Cargill has confessed that he has killed many of his colleagues in order to gain power over the years.
Now that you admit that you helped him, aren't you confessing that you are also a murderer?"
Abed didn't care, "Mr. Meese, if you want to accomplish great things, you have to pay attention to details."
Miss's eyes became alert. Old Deng confessed everything as soon as they met, which was equivalent to handing his handle to his opponent.
This frank way of talking is obviously intended to win me over.
"Tell me, Mr. Abbott, what do you want me to do? What can I get in return for helping you?"
Seeing that Miss was so direct, Abed laughed and said, "It's easier to deal with smart people.
I'll be frank then. I'm in the slave business. Due to that damned rule, when transporting slaves, one box is only allowed to carry two at most.
A business of my scale requires a large number of horse-drawn carriages for each shipment.
You know, the shipping costs are too high.”
Miss understood what Abed said and found it funny.
It turns out that the entry point is here.
"Mr. Abed, do you want me to secretly help you transport slaves by using a carriage that is used to transport other goods?"
There was a burst of applause, and Abed smiled widely, "As expected of you, you guessed it so quickly."
Many countries have regulations regarding slave traders, requiring them to treat slaves well.
Including during transportation, in order to take the feelings of the slaves into consideration, a small carriage could carry no more than two people, and if there were more people, a fine would be imposed.
The transportation costs were high, but the selling price of slaves could not be raised significantly, so slave traders could only suffer in silence.
According to Abed's suggestion, he found a chamber of commerce to cooperate with, and let the chamber of commerce use the carriages used to transport other goods to load the slaves into opaque wooden boxes and transport them secretly. One carriage could carry at least six to eight people.
In this way, transportation costs will be greatly reduced.
In order to avoid deliberate obstruction by the guards at the city gate, Abed needs to find a well-known chamber of commerce to cooperate with, so as to ensure unimpeded passage.
In the current city of Sojer, the [Hard] Chamber of Commerce has collapsed, and Abed can only set his sights on the newly rising [Xile] Chamber of Commerce.
The [Xile] Chamber of Commerce was renamed [Higanbana Xile], which meant that Miss became the real president of the Chamber of Commerce.
That's why Abed approached Miss to discuss cooperation.
Reasonable, everything is reasonable.
Miss couldn't help but nodded. Abed's operation was flawless.
Unfortunately, what Abed didn't know was that all the dirty tricks he had been doing behind the scenes had already been discovered by Miss.
They said they were helping to transport slaves, but in fact they were helping him transport poached monsters.
"I do have the conditions to help you, but what kind of benefits can you bring to me? Money, I have plenty, fame, I have no use, status, I don't need it either."
Miss's tone was firm, without revealing a single flaw.
Although he seems to be uninterested in Abbott's request for cooperation, he actually wants to decide whether to cooperate with him based on the reward.
Abed seemed to have expected Miss to say this and was not at all panicked.
"I've heard that Mr. Miss has done a lot of research on magic items. I wonder if you're interested in dragon organs."
Hearing the words "dragon's organ", Miss perked up, because this was the material he needed most.
"Humph, Mr. Abed, I have two flying dragons on my shoulders. The last thing I need is dragons."
As Miss said this, he touched Prey and Inkolis's heads.
Abed smiled and said, "Mr. Miss, I am talking about real dragons, dragons with pure blood.
If you agree to cooperate, I am willing to give you a dragon's eyeball."
Miss also sneered, "If I cooperate with you, I will be doing things that violate the rules of the world and corrupt my conscience, which is really inconsistent with my character and philosophy."
"You have to pay more!"
