DRAGON MASTER (Crazy Updates)
Chapter 33: Lucca Chamber of Commerce, Which Will Be Closed
Joelson sat in front of Catherine again.
But this time not in the living room, but in a small meeting room.
"Juliana doesn't know that you're back. Sir Joelson, if you have something to say, just say it."
Catherine said with a wry smile.
Joelson changed his posture, with a faint smile on his face, and his hands casually rested on his knees.
Unlike before, he returned of his own accord, so this conversation was led by him.
"I just think that if the Lucca family suffers, what's the name?"
"Shadow Society."
Catherine explained, "A murderous organization with a very bad reputation among normal people. Gold coins can order them to do anything."
"Yes, Shadow Society!"
Joelson flicked his finger and continued, "Under the threat of the Shadow Society Killer, Juliana is the safest in the academy. Why would they even take him out of the academy? Miss Catherine should know this, right?"
Catherine said nothing.
Of course, he knows.
No matter how powerful the Shadow Society was, they would not dare go to the Tulip Magic Academy to kill people.
There were so many experts among the academy's instructors. Just the title of the number one saint-level mage of the Alcott Empire, Harriet Terrence, was enough to make them not dare to enter the academy.
"Actually."
Catherine saw that she couldn't fool Joelson, so she told him the truth. "We want to seek help from Sir Joelson. Our Luca family is now in a very difficult situation."
"Oh?"
Joelson was not surprised. He was expecting it, or he wouldn't be back.
"Tell me what happened."
"okay."
Catherine nodded and said, "The Lucca Chamber of Commerce is one of the largest chambers of commerce in the capital. It had more than 50 shops with its name in all the provinces of the empire. At that time, the Lucca family was very prosperous. ."
"Miss Catherine."
Joelson interrupted Catherine's words and spread his arms, saying, "I'm not here to listen to you tell me about the history of the Lucca Chamber of Commerce's glory."
Catherine revealed an embarrassed expression, she sped up and said, "To put it simply, when my father was alive, he had offended, or rather harmed, the interests of some people. They join forces and attempt to take revenge and annex the Lucca family's property. This idea has been going on since my father died. Recently..."
Catherine paused for a moment. "They're getting impatient."
"They first blackmailed our forging shop and weapon shop. Originally, there were two magic herb shops that could barely keep up, but only last week, they hunted down an intermediate magic herb master that had been adored by the Lucca family for over ten years. It could be said that the Lucca family now had no source of income at all."
"There are many items in the warehouse, but they cannot be sold at all. After a while, I had to rely on the seller's shop to maintain the Chamber of Commerce's business. This is the result they want to see."
Hearing this, Joelson roughly understood and asked, "What about Shadow?"
"They hired a low-level assassin to kill me, but a personal guard blocked a knife for me. I'm not lying to you about this."
Catherine looked at Joelson helplessly and said, "But the killer will not come again in the future. Juliana is not in danger at home, because even if I don't die, the Lucca family will soon collapse."
"Oh."
Joelson nodded.
"It seems I can't help much. Miss Catherine doesn't want a small third-rate mage like me to help you destroy the enemy Chamber of Commerce, does she? Haha."
"No!"
Catherine shook her head. "Of course Sir Joelson can help."
He looked at Joelson with anticipation. "I knew. You are the Vice President of the Magic Potions Association of Tulip Academy."
Joelson raised his eyebrows. "You want me to help you prepare a magic potion?"
"It doesn't require high-level potions. Only a few stable low-level potions would do. Then our herb shop can continue to open and maintain the operation of the Chamber of Commerce!"
Catherine stammered, "I heard that most members of the pharmaceutical association are qualified pharmacists."
Joelson speechless.
Catherine's mood was very uneasy.
Although she has a relationship with Juliana, she is still unsure whether Joelson will agree or not.
"Yes." Yeah."
Joelson.
"Throughout?!"
Catherine shouted in surprise.
"Yes." Yeah."
Joelson nodded.
The Magic Potion Association would sell a portion of the potion to another chamber of commerce every week. Better sell it to Catherine directly. At least he has ties to the Lucca Chamber of Commerce. He had some transactions with them before coming to the capital, so he was trustworthy.
Moreover, he would ask the chamber of commerce to help him gather the ingredients to make the dragon blood potion.
"I can give all the herbs that the association collects every week to the Lucca Chamber of Commerce, including a portion of the intermediate potions and new magic herbs that we have developed."
Catherine's heart instantly rose from the abyss to heaven. He never thought that he would be able to achieve such a lucrative cooperation.
The latest potion developed by the Magic Potions Association of the Tulip Academy?!
God, if that really happened, this gimmick alone could already attract a lot of customers.
As expected, finding Joelson was the wisest choice.
"But..."
A smile appeared on Joelson's face as he continued, "I also have conditions."
"What?"
Catherine blinked her eyes.
...
Next day.
The busiest street in the capital, the Champs-Elysees.
"They open again?"
Several middle-aged men in luxurious clothes stood at the entrance of the pharmacy store with the logo of the Lucca Chamber of Commerce hanging on it. They frowned and discussed in a low voice.
"Did the Lucca family find a new pharmacist?! That's not possible! We have basically taken care of all the pharmacists in the capital!"
"What's the point of thinking so much? Let's go in and see it."
Some of them quickly walked to the pharmacy.
On the first day of the reopening, Catherine personally took over the pharmacy.
He looks forward to the business situation today.
"That's you?"
Catherine looked at the first customer who walked into the store, and her beautiful face instantly turned cold.
"You're not welcome here. Please go."
"My niece Catherine, this isn't how you do business."
A smart man with a mustache on his lips said with a fake smile.
"I don't need anyone to teach me how to do business."
Catherine answered coldly.
"You!"
The moustached man was about to get angry when suddenly, a low voice pulled him.
"The heart of fire and water?! How did you get such a potion?!"
Someone pointed at a bottle of red and blue potions on the crystal window and said in disbelief.
Catherine showed a slightly proud smile on her face.
