Chapter 395 I want 80% of the profit this time
After bidding farewell to the fluorescent mushroom family, Russell separated from his cousin Mel. He was going to visit Marquis Arnold Lieyang at the Never-Night Castle.
The Never-Night Castle was quiet today, without any of the noise of the past.
All banquets, salons, and dances were turned down by Marquis Arnold, just to entertain the upcoming Russell.
A mere baron was obviously not worth Marquis Arnold's efforts.
But if this baron was the first person in the Grand Duchy of Shadow Flame, had a brilliant record of killing three dragons with one sword, and was also a dragon domain lord who had survived a sneak attack by the snow giant, then all this would be completely worth it.
"Haha, Mr. Russell is finally here. I've been waiting for a long time." Marquis Arnold greeted him at the gate of the castle.
His contracted two-legged flying dragon had long returned to the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents. The dragon breath could not be replenished for a long time. Now it is only at the level of a fantasy beast knight, and it is not a powerful fantasy beast knight. He is only a 2nd turn.
Fortunately, he is of noble status, with the support of the Blazing Torrent Kingdom, and his position in the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy is above the rest.
The last time Russell visited, he had to look up to Marquis Arno.
This time, he felt a completely different feeling, as Marquis Arno could no longer put any pressure on him.
"Since I was promoted to the Lord of Dragon Domain, I have always wanted to visit the Never-Night Castle, and today I finally fulfilled my wish." Russell did not show an arrogant look because of his increased strength, but his self-confidence overflowed from the inside out.
"Haha, it's my honor."
Face to face, Marquis Arno could deeply feel the powerful aura and strong self-confidence emanating from Russell.
This self-confidence is not arrogance, but a firm belief.
"After escaping the attack of the snow giant and being promoted to the Lord of Dragon Domain, this boy has a clear understanding of his own strength... I'm afraid it's not easy to fool him today!" Marquis Arno's mind turned quickly.
Then the two walked into the Never-Night Castle side by side.
After arriving at the restaurant and the host and guest sat down, the male servant brought one dish after another, many of which Russell had never seen before.
"Come, Mr. Russell, try the food of my Burning Torrent Kingdom. The ice age blocked the road, so I used the Fantasy Beast Knight to transport the ingredients to put together this table of authentic kingdom food." Marquis Arnold called.
The plates in front of him were full of exotic food, which really made Russell hungry and he ate heartily.
Tasting fine wine while enjoying food.
A banquet for two people, with more than a dozen servants busy serving, is indeed a luxurious enjoyment.
Russell, who has always been simple, had to admit that this feeling was very good.
"No wonder everyone wants to be a noble, a great noble!" He sighed silently, the feeling of being the center of attention is enough to satisfy anyone's vanity.
However,
No matter how good the wine and food were, they could not shake Russell's mind. When he was half drunk, he took the initiative to mention: "Marquis Arnold, it's almost April. According to the inference of the Great Scholars Round Table, the warm season is coming."
"Yes, the warm season is coming... If you didn't say it, I would have almost forgotten that the ice age has not ended." Marquis Arnold sighed sincerely.
The Never-Sleeping Castle is adjacent to the Shadow Flame Volcano, and it has never been cold all year round.
If you live a life of drunkenness and dreaming here for a long time, you will really forget the existence of the cold snowfield and wear away the knight's fighting will.
"When the warm season comes, trade between your country and ours will also be restored." Russell circulated his fighting spirit and melted the slightly drunken feeling, "But this year's cigar trade, I think it is necessary to discuss the profit distribution again."
"Indeed." Marquis Arnold smiled, "I invited you to the banquet to discuss this matter."
He squinted his eyes and looked at Russell for the nth time. This young and tender face was still so dazzling and even glaring.
After a pause, he suppressed a trace of dissatisfaction in his heart.
He kept smiling and said, "I still remember that when you first came to visit, you proposed a 50-50 split in cigar trade. Now you have risen like a volcanic eruption, a flying dragon knight and a dragon domain lord, even the kingdom was only born in history."
"You are flattering." Russell smiled indifferently, reserved and complacent.
"How about this, based on your first proposal, we split the profits of cigar trade 50-50!" Marquis Arnold gritted his teeth and simply went all the way, showing his sincerity, "Win-win cooperation, make this money!"
Russell's smile gradually faded: "Marquis Arnold."
"Just call me Lord Arnold, and don't mention the empty title of Marquis."
"Okay, Lord Arnold." Russell said, "Things are different now. If you accepted the 50-50 split at the beginning, I am willing to keep this ratio, no matter what my identity is. But now, 50-50 split I don't accept it. "
Russell is not a good negotiator, so he doesn't play tricks, and directly said in a solemn voice: "This time, it's my turn to take 80% of the profits!"
"What!" Marquis Arnold glared, and the momentum of the Dragon Knight instantly dissipated, "Sir Russell, are you kidding me?"
"This is not a joke." Russell was not afraid at all, and the momentum of the Dragon Knight and Dragon Domain Lord spread, directly suppressing the momentum of Marquis Arnold, "And I not only want 80% of the profits, I also want to expand the proportion of cigar trade in the trade between the two countries."
"This is impossible. "
"Nothing is impossible." Russell smiled faintly, "When I first came to discuss the cigar trade, did you think that I could be promoted to Dragon Knight and Dragon Domain Lord? This time I left 20% of the profit for you, next time, I might leave you alone."
"Hahahahaha, you are really young and energetic." Marquis Arnold laughed angrily, "But you think things are too simple. Without the protection of my Blazing Torrent Kingdom, the Shadow Flame Duchy will sooner or later become the food of the Snow Giants, and this is the essence of the trade between the two countries!"
He looked at Russell and said bluntly: "If you If you don't agree to split the profits 50-50, then the cigar trade will be interrupted. This is the will of my Blazing Torrent Kingdom. "
"Become the food of the Snow Giant Da? "Russell laughed, "When I pierced the Snow Giant Da's forehead and severely injured the Snow Giant Da, I didn't think that I would become the food of the Snow Giant Da. On the contrary, I thought about eating the Snow Giant Da!"
"How ridiculous!" Marquis Arnold laughed wildly, "You are lucky to have escaped the attack of the Snow Giant Da. Do you really think that you can defeat the Snow Giant Da by joining forces with the Shadow Flame Dragon? You can fool others, but don't fool yourself. "
Swish!
The Sword Butterfly Mark suddenly turned into a Meteor Butterfly Sword, and Russell's surging dragon breath directly displayed the Dou Qi Dragon Wu, turning into a big hand to grab Marquis Arnold.
Marquis Arnold's dragon breath, without the replenishment of his two-legged dragon, was obviously unable to resist Russell's grab.
"Russell, what do you want to do!"
"Don't worry, don't worry." Russell grabbed Marquis Arnold and flew out of the Never Night Castle, then communicated with the unicorn Polly and instantly entered combat mode.
He turned into a three-meter-tall Thunder Lord.
Holding the three-meter-long Meteor Butterfly Sword, he aimed at the open space around the Never Night Castle and struck with the Secret Sword of Thunder.
Zila!
Buzz!
It was as if countless birds were screaming, and the Thunder Sword was like thunder from the sky, piercing the earth directly, causing the entire earth to tremble.
The Never Night Castle next to him was shaking even more violently, and the walls reinforced by magic were cracked.
The Windfury City not far away was even more panicked, and I don't know how many people ran wildly into the streets, thinking that an earthquake had occurred.
The thunder dissipated, and the lightning was still flashing, leaving a terrible sword mark that was bottomless on the ground, as well as a scorched spider web-like crack that radiated continuously around, and the crack was so large that it extended several kilometers outward.
"Arnold, take a closer look, am I good enough to injure the Snow Giant?" Russell teleported to Marquis Arnold like lightning and asked in a deep voice.
Marquis Arnold swallowed unconsciously, and his body, which was hollowed out by alcohol and sex, began to tremble slightly. It took him a while to control his trembling.
Then he took a deep breath and replied, "Not enough."
"Huh?" Russell stared, murderous intent filled his eyes.
Marquis Arnold quickly added, "But it's enough for 80% of the profit! I am willing to continue to cooperate with you in cigar trade. You take 80% of the profit, and I take the remaining 20%!"
