To be honest, Riya felt a bit helpless about her current position.
After all, she was not proficient in negotiation and it seed that all she could do was to listen and wait for Samuel to finish.
Should she ditate?
But Riya felt that she would be labeled impolite and ignorant if she were to do it so openly and blatantly in front of other people. Besides, ditating required her to focus and couldn't be disturbed by others.
What if they called her when she was ditating?
Riya contemplated.
It seed that she really couldn't do anything but to listen.
Thankfully, Samuel finished the negotiator and made the arrangent with the other party from Continent W. There was a list of resources agreent that they agreed with and Samuel showed it to Riya.
"Is there anything that you want to add?" Samuel asked.
The representative from Continent W: "…"
He had the feeling that if Riya were to say that there was sothing she wanted to add, Samuel would not hesitate and started another round of negotiation with him.
Why is he here to discuss business but ended up being fed with dog food?
The representative from Continent W fell into doubts.
Riya didn't pay attention to the representative from Continent W and instead looked at the list that Samuel gave to her. It was basically stating that the herbs resources would be given to Jonas Nolan but minerals and related resources had to be given to Samuel. The magic beasts corpses would belong to whoever found them and then if there were any formation inside, the formation plate had to be given to Riya.
And there were also other detailed distribution below.
Riya looked at it and felt that Samuel was truly worthy of his reputation as a black hearted businessman. Almost everything that they could possibly need were listed here and even if not all resources could be given to them, they had the favorable term.
She looked at the list before asking, "How about the special resources?"
"It'll fall on the sa category as the ordinary resources, the distribution will be based on their type," Samuel replied without hesitation.
Neither he or Riya could use the plants and if Jonas Nolan could create so kind of useful potion, then he didn't mind handing the resources over to the other party. There were not many resources that could be swallowed or absorbed directly like those formation cores that they found before.
Even if there was so…
Samuel and Riya could just use the one in their respective crack.
It was unlikely that they would be given differential treatnt.
There was no evidence for this, but their instinct was telling them so and they believed in it.
"Hmm, do I need to prepare additional magic scroll for the people in Continent W?" Riya asked another question.
After all, they might face rank 7 magic beasts and if the number was large, Riya and Samuel would not have ti to care about the people who followed behind them.
"We'll buy them separately," The representative from Continent W quickly said when he heard their conversation.
What a joke.
If he dared to let Samuel negotiated the amount based on their current cooperation, he was sure that he would be slaughtered once again.
Samuel will definitely dare to do it.
He was absolutely sure of it.
"Alright, Uncle has the list for the price of every magic scrolls," Riya said with a shrug.
There were no other questions from her.
The representative from Continent W was silent.
He glanced at Mr. Jones, who had returned from communicating with the soldiers and other people on the side and felt that he was tricked. Because Mr. Jones said that everything would have to wait for Samuel and Riya to arrive.
Knowing Samuel's black bellied's nature… he already felt his heart hurt.
Now, he seed to understand that even Mr. Jones was not any better.
"Mr. Jones, it seems that you have never said that there's a price list," The representative from Continent W said with dissatisfied tone.
"That's the internal price for the people in City A Base," Mr. Jones replied unhurriedly. "I'll give you the list later." After revision, that is.
Even though the last part of the sentence was not said, everyone present sohow understood what Mr. Jones was actually planning to do.
Riya: "…"
She felt that her future father in law was surprisingly very cunning, just like Samuel.
Though, she felt more amusent than anything else.
After all, she knew that they were fighting for their own benefits and was not willing to accept any subpar treatnt or any less advantage. Though, Riya was sure that they knew proportion.
When to advance and to retreat in business was sotis quite subtle and not everyone could catch it.
"I hope you wouldn't take too much ti for that, Mr. Jones." The representative from Continent W snorted.
Mr. Jones kept a polite smile on the surface, not answering the other party's question in the slightest bit.
No matter what, he would not tell them what he was actually planning to do.
As for how much those things increased in price… he will naturally not cause trouble. And part of the additional benefits would also be given to Riya.
After all, she was the one who worked so hard.
"I'll be waiting." The representative from Continent W then closed the connection.
After all, he still has other things to do on his side. They have a lot of things that they needed to prepare after searching an agreent with Continent Z.
"Next is the one from Continent Y," Mr. Jones said and felt so headache when he thought about them.
"I don't think Continent Y will need us to help them explore the crack…" Samuel looked at Mr. Jones blankly. "There are two people who have reached rank 7 and presumably the last one wouldn't take that long either."
The last one is a magician, though, so Samuel was not entirely sure how fast she would be.
