"Oh?" Sophia became interested and asked, "Don't you want to use stories to sell the sharks more expensively?"
"Yes and no."
"How to say?"
"The story is indeed there to enhance the appeal, but it's not the mermaid that sells it."
"What's that?"
"Nafu City." Claire smiled slightly, "To be precise, what we are selling is a concept, and what we are selling is a service within Nafu City."
"You always have so many ideas, let's hear them."
"What about the story just now?" Claire asked.
"If it were polished a little more, it would be a good story. Love will always be something people pursue."
"Then what if this story spreads throughout the kingdom, and Nafu City appears again as a mermaid?"
Sophia opened his eyes slightly, "You want to use the mermaid as a gimmick to attract people from all over the world to travel to Nafu City, and then drive local consumption, right?"
"Madam, you are so smart, you can tell everything at once." Claire praised.
"You are so smart that you can actually come up with such a way to make money. I admired you when I heard you were building that metallurgical city. Now you are planning to build a tourist city. How many ideas do you have in your mind?"
"That's how it is, but now Nafu City lacks some services..." Claire tapped his fingers slowly on the table.
To say it's less is an exaggeration. The actual situation is that Nafu City doesn't have anything to ask for now. It can only meet the most basic living needs of the residents inside. Even if tourists come to such a place, they won't have the idea of visiting it a second time.
"So you want me to open a store in your place and increase the variety of your products? In this way, even tourists from big cities won't feel any difference when they go there, right?"
"Yes, if it can be implemented smoothly, then the two stores you opened at Nafu City, madam, should be able to make money."
"Emm." Sophia thought for a moment, "It's hard not to accept your suggestion."
"So you agreed?" Claire was a little happy. He originally thought that the other party would use this as a threat to make other demands, but he didn't expect that he agreed so easily.
After all Nafu City If there is really a lack of services in this area, the tourist city cannot be built.
This is one of the reasons why he went to all the trouble to come from Nafu City to discuss business with Sophia.
"Why don't you agree to a business that can make money?" Sophia smiled like a flower, "What kind of person does the Viscount think of this person? Do you think I will use this to make any excessive demands?"
"How could it be? It's very rare for a woman as beautiful and kind as Madam." Such lies came out of Claire's mouth without any burden in her heart.
"Hee hee." Sophia covered his mouth and laughed, "I like to hear words like this. I'll say more in the future."
Claire smiled slightly and said, "If only your store, Madam, settled in, it would still be a little short. I hope more merchants in this field can settle in. Do you have any recommendations?"
The current Nafu City West District is just a hotel and tavern opened by Shane. Even though there are two more shops from Sophia behind it, it is still a little lacking.
There is not even a serious restaurant or other entertainment venues, so even if the tourists bring money, they have nowhere to spend it.
Sophia hooked his fingers and said, "There will be a gathering of nobles organized by the royal family the day after tomorrow. I will take you there. It depends on you whether we can negotiate it or not."
The people behind the restaurants, tailor shops, and competition venues on the most prosperous streets of the royal capital are all nobles, so if Claire can negotiate with them, then Nafu City will indeed have no shortage of merchants to settle in.
"It's not a big problem." Claire said confidently.
Sophia raised the goblet in his hand, and Claire also raised it and touched it.
"Touch!"
"A pleasure to work with."
"Happy to work with!"
Claire sent Sophia away and said goodbye at the door of the restaurant.
Sophia looked Claire up and down and said, "Don't forget the time. I will send someone to pick you up the day after tomorrow. Remember to dress appropriately."
Claire nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't embarrass you, madam."
Sophia looked around and saw a luxurious carriage slowly approaching. The mounts pulling the carriage were dragon beasts of precious quality. They were not at the same level as the one Claire bought with tens of thousands of Gold Coins.
After Sophia saw the carriage coming, he said to Claire, "Okay, I'll go then."
"Madam, walk slowly." Claire bowed slightly.
The carriage stopped in front of Sophia. At this moment, a cold figure suddenly appeared in front of the two of them out of thin air. Claire was startled. He couldn't help but touch Spatial Ring, trying to take out Magic Handgun. However, he saw Sophia out of the corner of his eye and was not surprised at all.
Only then did Claire realize that this must be Sophia's guard, and then he slowly released his hand.
"Viscount Griffin, we meet again." A familiar hoarse voice sounded.
Claire suddenly looked up and his pupils shrank when he saw the other person, but he quickly adjusted.
Responded: "Hugh Archmage..."
Claire's mind is still a little stuck and he doesn't know what to say. He can only ask casually, "How are you doing lately? How are you doing?"
"Thanks to you and my wife's appreciation, I successfully joined August Family..."
When Xiu Shi wanted to continue talking to Claire, Sophia spoke up, "You guys had a great time chatting."
The tone was still smiling, but after hearing this, Xiu Shi's face suddenly changed, his body tensed up, and he quickly turned around to open the door of the carriage.
He leaned forward and said, "Madam, please come in."
Sophia laughed a few times for no apparent reason. Khushi's face became even more ugly, and he pressed his body down again, looking humble.
Claire also saw something and said to the rescue, "Madam, what kind of gift do you like? I can give you one after I visit the day after tomorrow."
Facing Claire, Sophia didn't feel that strong a sense of oppression. He just said gently, "Any gift will do, as long as it is something you give to others, they will like it."
Khushi still lowered his head and did not dare to make any other moves. He now regretted why he had just talked to Claire.
"Okay, I will prepare carefully. Madam, please go slowly." Claire said.
"I will look forward to the gift from Lord Viscount." Sophia responded, and finally stepped onto the carriage.
Hugh Archmage slowly closed the carriage door and finally breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Claire with gratitude in his eyes, but he no longer dared to talk to Claire. He just nodded gratefully and then slowly disappeared again.
The carriage drove away. Claire stood on the side of the road and watched the carriage gradually become smaller and then disappeared into the night. Then he called the Wolf King over.
I cursed in my heart, "You really can't believe a word this woman said. Just now I thought she really killed Khushi."
"Damn it, I thought it was a fake corpse when it suddenly appeared just now."
The more Claire thought about it, the more suspicious he became. The other party agreed to open a store in Nafu City so easily. Did he think of another trick to trick him?
No, you have to guard against her.
