Chapter 412: Trading in Full Swing

The Lavender Business Guild flag fluttered on the mast of the boats. Su Wan had also attached the flag of the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce at the side. That would help avoid any kind of trouble.
Su Wan didn’t intend to follow this time. She didn’t have time to spare. She wasn’t worried that her convoy might lose its way. Many of her troops were in Canglan City, and they would be able to receive the new convoy.
The Sandworm wriggled and moved forward. The chains tightened and pulled the mechanical boats along with the Sandworms.
Her long planning had finally succeeded!
“Speed up the progress with the Light Flowing Grass. I need results!” said Su Wan. “We can cooperate with Furnace City to come up with new mechanical tools that can help with planting and harvesting the Light Flowing Grass.”
Su Wan had high expectations for the ice cream her territory had made. Although profit was not high right now, it would sell rapidly once it was introduced outside.
Her main market was Canglan City, but she could always sell them outside too. She needed to lay a good foundation for that to happen.

The sun hung on the horizon. Mestre looked in the distance with anticipation.
“Xu Yuan is so annoying!” said Bayion. “He didn’t even say goodbye before going away. Why are they taking so long to send that ice cream? When I meet them, I’ll definitely give them a piece of my mind.”
Last week, Bayion had received news from the territory requesting her to try the ice cream. The price was also very low if the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce was willing to trade for it.
“I won’t agree to it if it isn’t good enough. Xu Yuan should try his hardest to convince me,” said Bayion.
“Your Highness, I don’t think Lord Xu Yuan will visit,” said Mestre cautiously.
“What?! Why?! I helped take care of the Lavender Business Guild for so long. How could he not visit?” asked Bayion indignantly.
The Pegasus Knight in the sky gestured to them to inform them that something was approaching from a distance.
“They’re here!” Bayion perked up.
The earth shook and dust rose. The Pegasus Knights in the sky immediately were on high alert. They flew down and guarded Bayion.
As the dust settled, Bayion saw the approaching convoy clearly. Some grotesque crates were pulling what looked like a mechanical boat.
The huge bodies of the Sandworms crawled out of the ground.
“Are these one of Su Wan’s creatures? Can I ride them?!” asked Bayion excitedly.
Mestre didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. The Sandworms slowly approached them. A hero stepped forward and greeted them.
“Good day, Miss Mestre,” he said and bowed.
“Didn’t Lord Su Wan and His Majesty Xu Yuan come with you?” asked Mestre for Bayion’s sake.
The hero shook his head. “Lord Su Wan and His Majesty Xu Yuan had business to attend to. They couldn’t come.”
‘That scum really didn’t come…’ Bayion was annoyed.
“Your Highness,” said the hero and bowed to Bayion. “Thank you so much for taking care of the Lavender Business Guild. Lord Su Wan and His Majesty Xu Yuan often mention you.”
“Really?” asked Bayion eagerly.
“Of course,” said the hero. “This bouquet of flowers was specially sent by His Majesty. It’s from the underground world.” The hero bowed respectfully and handed her the flowers.
Bayion looked at the bouquet in her hand and smiled radiantly. She carefully lifted the veil that was covering the bouquet. Magical power surged and the flower buds bloomed. The bouquet was a mix of red and white flowers.
Bayion exclaimed in joy. Mestre was a bit envious.
“Miss Mestre, how do we transfer all these ice creams to the city?” asked the hero.
Canglan City did not allow troops and such huge creatures to enter the premises.
“I borrowed carriages from Her Highness. Unload the good,” said Mestre. She gestured to the twenty or so carriages.
The carriages were not ordinary. They were spacious within. They were made mainly to carry goods.
After that, Mestre led Bayion back to the city. Now that the ice creams had been delivered, it was time to get down to business.
Mestre had already rented a small shop for the ice creams. She would immediately begin the sale and supply of the ice creams. She wouldn’t let Su Wan down!
When they finally headed to the Lavender Business Guild, Mestre saw a carriage in front of the manor.
Mestre got off her own carriage to see an elegant and graceful woman waiting for her.
“Good day, President Nami,” said Mestre in greeting.
“Miss Mestre, Lord Su Wan didn’t visit this time?” asked Nami when she only saw Bayion by her side.
“Lord Su Wan had important matters to attend to,” said Bayion in answer. “Even Xu Yuan didn’t come this time.”
“Sister Nami, look!” said Bayion as she held the bouquet out. “They sent a bouquet for me!”
Nami nodded. “Miss Mestre, please inform Lord Su Wan and Lord Xu Yuan that I seek their audience.”
Mestre’s heart missed a beat. She felt that something was wrong. “President Nami, what reason should I give Lord Su wan?”
“Please inform Lord Su Wan that I have information on the Crimson Moon..”
