A strange world

Chapter 623 Section 20. Two flavors

Lucy, the head maid, is a beautiful woman and the most powerful vampire in the castle, equivalent to the master of the professional system.

It was Irene's luck that she gave him his first embrace. The stronger the first embracer, the greater the potential of the first embracer. In addition, Irene is also a gifted warlock.

Annan saw Irene who had turned into a vampire late at night before setting off the next day. Her frail appearance gained a hint of coquettishness, and her skin became pale and delicate.

"My sisters and I are very grateful to you... Please let me follow you and protect you." She stood in front of Annan.

Annan did not need the protection of Irene, who was still just a newborn vampire warlock. But he realized that he seemed to be able to shape this branch that was willing to listen to him into the shape he wanted.

For example, he now has his own power in the vampire clan, and Princess Crimson has to be grateful to him.

"You discovered a vampire warlock for us. Tell me, what reward do you want?" The more the Scarlet Princess looked at it, the more she felt that Annan was their lucky subordinate. Form an alliance, vampire warlock... there have been surprises since Annan arrived!

"I haven't thought about it yet."

"No, I have to tell you something!" Princess Crimson asked Annan to tell her the reward she wanted.

Annan thought about it seriously and ruled out asking for money. He stared at the crimson princess with his black eyes: "Then please continue to move forward unswervingly. You may have many difficulties ahead of you. You may be excluded and despised, and your companions may not understand... But you are creating a new twilight for the vampire clan."

Princess Crimson's mood became much more serious: "I accept your request."

Dawn is coming, and the castle is busy, starting to prepare candidates for the Skeleton Duke's visit in the evening.

The butler and some of the knights stayed in the castle, while Princess Crimson, the head maid, and Eileen led the team, plus Annan.

There were several carts filled with gifts for Duke Skeleton. After Annan saw them, he had them unloaded and told Dracula that Duke Skeleton didn't like these belongings and it would be best to replace them with some ores and materials.

Rest well during the day and come evening.

Annan followed the Scarlet Princess to the beautiful blood-like dusk. Princess Crimson, who was standing in front of the car, stretched out her hand, and Annan helped Princess Crimson get into the car knowingly.

The crimson princess sat in the carriage and patted the empty seat next to her.

"You come up too."

…

Huadu, Old Town Tavern.

Klein, Celine, Fatima Sailer, Solo and a strong man with squirrel hair around his neck gathered.

The tavern was temporarily taken over by them. They sat in front of two wine tables put together, with a glass of happy water in front of them.

The strong man was the first to grab the wine glass and take a sip. "It's too light." He said, added two spoons of honey to the happy water, stirred it evenly with a spoon, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp: "Well...it's much better this time."

Celine and the others also tried it, and they all said that the happy water with honey tastes better.

People here are more addicted to sugar than in the north. Klein thought that she was the only one who thought the original taste was the best.

"what to do?"

Mrs. Solow asked Klein.

Annan handed over the happy water business to Klein, so they are all her subordinates.

Klein's answer came dully from under his helmet: "I can't do business, but I can buy things from merchants who are willing to listen to me."

Mrs. Solow smiled with relief: "This is my rule of doing business. Never teach customers what to do."

"But I think both flavors are good..." Celine said suddenly.

"Then should we keep it the same or add honey and sell it again?" Fatima Sailor didn't understand this.

Only the strong man remained silent, adding spoonful after spoonful of honey and drinking cup after cup.

"This is not a multiple-choice question." Mrs. Solow, the tenth largest wine merchant, spread her hands, "Why don't we sell it in two flavors? Lemon flavor and honey flavor?"

The main purpose of Happy Water is to seize the market, and secondly to retaliate against the nine major wine merchants, so they believe that the price is consistent with the maple syrup wine, 80 copper coins is enough.

Fatima Sailer is responsible for publicity among nobles, Celine is responsible for publicity among businessmen, Mrs. Solow uses her own industry, and now she realizes what Annan's words "for yourself" mean - this kind of A drink that is more exciting than fruit juice and milder than wine will create new history.

When it was the turn of the newly joined strong man, he said silently: "I will let the mercenaries try this thing."

Talking about the end, Klein said: "One more thing, help me find a theater that is willing to sell."

Each of the nine major wine merchants received 30,000 gold coins plus 3,000 gold coins as compensation, for a total of 300,000 gold coins. Among them, 250,000 were sent back to Liberty City by Annan, leaving 50,000 gold coins to lay out the commercial territory in Huadu.

"Theatre?" Fatima Sailor seemed not to have heard clearly. "What's the use of buying a place like this?"

"This is Annan's request." Klein didn't say anything about the magical image.

The women looked at each other in tacit understanding, and they all thought of Annan dressed in gorgeous clothes, playing the role of a prince and standing on the ring...

They themselves felt that this conjecture was outrageous, but to some extent it was indeed very close to the truth.

…

Princess Crimson seems to be unable to distinguish Annan's identity.

Annan was still worried at first that she would be discovered staying in the carriage with the Scarlet Princess, but in the end, she could not smell her "human scent" at all.

The Crimson Princess talks a lot about the Blood Council. For example, Pride states that he is one of the twelve members of the Blood Parliament.

Annan thought that he was also one of the twelve kings of the North, so it matched his expectations.

Annan already knew this from Dracula, but he didn't know the underlying reason: As one of the twelve members of the Blood Parliament that can compete with the southern countries, there is always a reason for the Crimson Princess's weak power - because of her sleeping mother.

The Blood Council is the Twelve Grand Dukes, and Princess Crimson's mother is one of them. However, due to changes, she fell into a near-eternal sleep. Princess Crimson, who was still just a "child", was forced to wake up and face the position left by her mother and the disintegrating forces.

Annan felt that the Scarlet Princess looked more like him.

"Is the princess true?" Annan didn't forget to ask.

"Do you know everything?" Princess Crimson said softly: "The princess claims to be in Wenwen City, but humans don't know it. I want to use the princess to break into Huadu..."

The plan itself was fine, but the guys who implemented it were too radical.

"I will warn them." Crimson Princess said solemnly.

On the afternoon of the second day of departure, they came to the necropolis of Duke Skeleton.

The Skeleton King who was greeted on the surface held up the Scarlet Princess's hand and gave a virtual kiss to express welcome. When it was Annan's turn, his attitude was much closer. He put his arm around Annan's shoulders like a good friend and whispered:

"Welcome, I have prepared a gift for you. I have invited the undead nearby, Princess Mononoke, Skeleton Maid, Miss Bandage, Madam Puppet... I think you will like it."

Annan had to explain: "I am not the sorcerer in your impression. I may not be knowledgeable, but everything I do is for lofty beliefs."

"Then I let them go back?"

"Need not."
