"Patriarch, Earl Campbell of the Red Maple Clan pays his respects."
In the somewhat wild and ancient stone hall, a three-meter-tall, dark blue Gale Demon Wolf guard walked in, prostrated himself on the ground, and respectfully reported.
Balielunduo, who had been reclining on the high platform with his eyes closed in repose, slowly opened his eyes. "Earl Campbell? Did he say why he was visiting?"
"No!" The guard shook his head.
"Alright, let him in!"
"Yes!"
The guards withdrew, and after a short while, Logo walked in alone.
"Greetings, Your Excellency the Grand Steward!"
"Well, what brings you here?" Balielunduo asked calmly.
Although he was displeased with the Three-Eyed People's actions in killing the Madam Poison and the Duke, Balielunduo did not bring this sentiment into his conversation with Logo; sticking to the facts was his consistent approach.
"Reporting to the Grand Steward, the three major clans of the Gendaya People are preparing to join forces with the Inferno Minotaurs to establish the Ruibete Group, primarily responsible for the management of alchemical products."
"You have complete autonomy in this matter; you don't need to ask me." Balielunduo shook his head.
Logo smiled faintly, "Grand Steward, you misunderstand. I have come to see you today to discuss the matter of the Lord's Mansion investing in the Ruibete Group!"
"Oh?" Balielunduo narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean?"
"I just wanted to use the lord's name to intimidate those hyenas with ulterior motives," Logo said frankly.
Upon hearing Balielunduo did not refuse. Instead, after a moment of contemplation, he asked, "What price are you willing to pay?"
"The Ruibete Group can provide the Lord's Mansion with 7 million Ta Pound per month."
"7 million? Per month?" Balielunduo surprise.
Good heavens, that's almost a hundred million over a year! That's enough to support how many Transcendent!
Logo's magnanimity improved Balielunduo's attitude considerably.
That's the advantage of using money to pave the way: it makes it easy to have a calm and peaceful conversation with someone.
Half an hour later, an agreement was reached: the Ruibete Group could fly the Lord's flag and emblem, and if the Group encountered unreasonable harassment from other forces and could not resolve the issue on its own, the Lord's Mansion would step in to help.
Of course, if the lord's manor personally intervenes, there will be an extra charge.
Paying 7 million Ta Pound a month is just buying the title of sanctuary; it's essentially protection money.
After these matters were settled, Balielunduo and Logo became much more familiar with each other.
Logo once again used his ability to take advantage of the situation, taking the opportunity to pull out a bottle of indigo potion and place it in front of Balielunduo. Wind elemental particles gathered from all directions, jumping joyfully around the potion bottle.
"This is..."
Balielunduo sniffed; although the potion was still unopened, he could already feel a deep-seated longing within his blood.
Although this feeling is very superficial, it is important to understand that this Grand Steward is a powerful being at the Epic Peak.
The potions that could cause fluctuations in his bloodline were either of a sufficiently high level or highly compatible with his bloodline.
Thinking of this, Balielunduo looked at Logo, waiting for the latter's explanation.
"Grand Steward, please look. This potion is called Gale. It is the result of a year of dedicated research, combining hundreds of magical potions and materials. It is mild in nature and easily absorbed. After ingestion, it can stimulate the bloodline of wind-type wolf magical beasts, increasing the probability of ancestral reversion and accelerating growth. It is most effective for infants and young children..."
Logo, holding the Gale Potion, began to speak eloquently.
Balielunduo was lying on the high platform, twitched slightly at the corner of his mouth.
What the hell is this wind-type wolf-like magical beast?
Why don't you just say we're the Gale Demon Wolf Tribe?
They even went around in circles, taking such a roundabout route.
However, despite the temptation of the Gale Potion, Balielunduo suppressed his strange feelings and listened to Logo finish speaking.
"How much does a bottle of this medicine cost?" Balielunduo asked.
"Original price 780 Ta Pound..."
Balielunduo's expression changed slightly. This price was not low, considering that the number of cubs in the Gale Demon Wolf Tribe was in the millions.
Even if each wolf cub received a bottle of potion, the total cost would still be astronomical.
Furthermore, according to Logo's previous statement, the Gale Potion needs to be taken continuously for a year to maximize its effects.
That's how it works...
Balielunduo's heart trembled; it was an astronomical figure.
However, since Logo wanted to befriend the Gale Demon Wolf Tribe, he certainly wouldn't handle this matter in a business-like manner.
He paused, then continued, "Of course, given the many years of service and contributions the Gale Demon Wolf Tribe has made to our Sunset Territory, with countless heroes dying on the battlefield, and especially considering your, Grand Steward, your selfless and altruistic nature..."
Logo first showered Balielunduo with praise, making him feel embarrassed, before finally revealing his final offer.
"Sell it to others for 780 per bottle, sell it to the Gale Demon Wolf Tribe for 78 per bottle!!"
"(⊙o⊙)??!!"
Balielunduo was stunned.
Good grief, this is ten times cheaper! You weren't just kidding me, were you?
Logo then showed Balielunduo the ingredient list for the Gale Potion and the corresponding production process, which dispelled the latter's doubts.
"This... you won't lose money, will you?" Balielunduo even started to consider Logo.
He was genuinely trembling with fear at the thought of receiving such a benefit.
"Well, it doesn't matter if we lose money. Let's just consider it a way of repaying the Grand Steward for his contributions to our Sunset Territory over the years," Logo said righteously.
In short, even if I lose money, I'm happy to do it.
Balielunduo sighed.
Although he knew this kid was plotting something, trying to get closer to the Gale Demon Wolf Tribe and himself.
But... they gave us way too much.
Balielunduo is not unsophisticated.
In the market, there are many potions of similar quality and effect to the Gale Potion, costing at least several hundred Ta Pound, and even more costing thousands.
78 Ta Pound...
Even with a lantern, it's impossible to find.
The cubs are the future of the race, and the Gale Potion's effect on the cubs is like striking at the heart of Balielunduo's weakness.
What could he do?
reject?
What will the tribespeople think if they find out about this?
Oh, you're Balielunduo high and mighty, ignoring the cheap potions that are practically handed to you, wasting ten times the resources.
For the sake of Sunset Territory, you've abandoned even your own tribe. What kind of tribal chief are you?
Similar complaints were almost predictable.
Therefore, as long as Balielunduo still wants to be the leader of the Gale Demon Wolf Tribe, he cannot refuse.
