The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

Chapter 296 - GU YE'S BUSINESS PROPOSAL



GU YE couldn't help but feel some kind of violation when he looked at this beautiful NPC. It's not anything bad. Just a feeling that 'she' was unlike other NPCs. As if 'she' was really not one. Which could only mean that 'she' was actually a player. If that was really the case, then that would make Yuexing Pavilion an in-game business that was player-owned. The very opposite of what most guessed. 

It was only a small suspicion. Not really something that he would badly want to get to the bottom of. After all, the only reason he was here was to cooperate with the pavilion. He didn't care whether he was dealing with an actual NPC or someone who's just play-acting as one. 

As Gu Ye was observing the 'NPC', Luo Yan was also doing the same.

The moment this Bian Que entered the room, Luo Yan quickly told Eclipse to hide under the table. He wasn't sure how rare a kitsune was in this game. But he didn't want to gamble on the chance that this guy wouldn't remember Eclipse. After all, he was planning to fight in the Rookie Carnival together with his little fox. That tournament would be broadcast live. If Bian Que saw him fighting with Eclipse, the other might be able to put two and two together. So, it's better to be safe than sorry.

The Alchemist really looked like someone who was detached from the world. Like some kind of wise sage or something. If he didn't hear those rumors about him, he might really suspect him as that. He didn't doubt that the rumors were wrong. Because it was true that Bian Que had a lot of cooperation with in-game businesses. 

Not only that, every time he made a powerful potion, he would auction it out first. Making sure that it would fetch a very high price. He would not release it to the market for a couple of weeks. Arousing the appetite of people. And when the excitement and curiosity reached the highest level, the potion would then appear in his shop in a grand manner. It was a very good strategy. Which, no doubt, earned him a lot of money. 

Now, Luo Yan wondered what kind of business proposal this guy would show him.

"Please, do sit down," he said, gesturing for the other to sit on the seat in front of his desk. He then glanced at Madam Ru who was still standing on the side. "You can go now." 

Madam Ru bowed to them and walked out of the office. Bian Que, on the other hand, already sat down. So, Luo Yan also sat down on his seat.

"I'll just go straight to the point to not waste both our time. My business proposal is fairly simple. I want to supply the tea being served in the pavilion. Of course, it wouldn't be just ordinary tea, it would have medicinal and magical effects. It would not only slowly improve the stats of the customers as time goes by, they would also feel refreshed and invigorated."

Hearing that, Luo Yan couldn't help but be interested. His pavilion didn't have any special teas. They were just ordinary, delicious teas. In retrospect, the pavilion's liquor had a wider range of varieties in comparison. If this tea could really have the effects that Bian Que mentioned, then it could be another attraction to the pavilion. 

"Then, distinguished guest, how do you suggest we divide the profit?" 

If this guy suggested something that was totally disadvantageous to his pavilion, then he wouldn't hesitate to reject his proposal. No matter how attractive it might be. Unless, of course, the other was willing to compromise.

"We'll divide it 60-40. I will have 60% of the profit and your pavilion will have the remaining 40%. Addition to that, you don't have to buy the tea from me. You just have to give me 60% of the weekly profit at the end of the week. What do you think?" Bian Que said without changing his face.

Luo Yan couldn't help but raised one of his brows. That division was kind of unexpected. At most, he was expecting 70-30. Not to mention, the fact that he didn't need to buy the tea. It was a very generous offer that didn't put the pavilion in any disadvantage. It would be stupid of him to reject it.

He was about to say something when he felt a pair of furry paws clinging to his leg. Then he heard Eclipse's voice in his head.

[Mashter, how long would I have to hide here?]

Luo Yan felt his face turning stiff. Good thing a veil was covering the lower half of his face, which also covered any reaction he might have had.

[Until the guy I'm talking to leaves. So, be good and behave.]

For good measure, he secretly took out a Mana fruit and gave it to the little guy hiding under the table.

Eclipse excitedly picked it up. [Yes, Mashter. Eclipse will behave.]

Gu Ye wasn't sure if it was his imagination, but it felt like the black-haired elf was talking to someone just now. He noticed 'her' being slightly startled and that's when it began. 'She' seemed to be in a trance and started talking to whoever. The suspicion that this black-haired elf was not an NPC came to his mind again.

"Is there a problem?" he asked.

"No," Luo Yan quickly said, covering whatever gaffe he showed just now. "This humble one was just thinking about the deal that the distinguished guest proposed."

"If you have to notify anyone about this, I could wait for three days for your decision," Gu Ye said, talking about the people from Moonlight Media that was in charge of Yuexing Pavilion. That was, if this pavilion was owned by the game. 

"There's no need. This humble one was given complete control over the pavilion. Thus, I have the right to decide things related to it," Luo Yan said. "This humble one has judged that the distinguished guest's proposal was very profitable and doesn't pose any danger to the pavilion. So, this humble one is most pleased to agree with the distinguished guest."

"Good! Then let's sign the contract."

After Bian Que said that, a virtual contract suddenly appeared between them. The corner of Luo Yan's lips twitched. It seemed that, from the very beginning, this guy already expected that he would agree.

Bian Que signed his name immediately. Luo Yan had to quickly read the contents of the contract. And when he found that there was no problem in it, he put the seal of the pavilion on the contract. 

With that, the cooperation between Yuexing Pavilion and the number one Alchemist in Arcadia had been decided.
