The Useless 8th Prince

The Useless 8th Prince
Maturer



“Does it really have no special meaning, Prince Ciel?”


Listening to Ferel's question, Ciel smiled mysteriously. He then explained.


“Gold color means prosperity, that's obvious. As for those two words, Golden Dusk, I thought about it when I saw the golden rays before the sun sank.


I have little hope. Want to reach the peak of success and make it happen. Not only in dreams, but done before leaving this world.”


“Golden Dusk .. peak beauty ... not only dream, but realized in reality.” Savian muttered with an astonished expression. “A very good name.”


Ferel who had already proposed many names looked distressed. He could only say, “It was .. not bad at all, Prince Ciel.”


“Then it is decided. The name of our trade group is Golden Dusk.”


“Good.” Savian nodded.


“I also agree,” added Ferel.


The three people then discussed each other about the business and the direction of development they will go. For now, they would focus on selling potions to nobles in South Duchy. If they could, they would go after a Count.


They had their own reasons for choosing the Count. First, the Count could make them expand their relationships and relationships because the title of Count was not low. Second, Counts have better long-term prospects because they have good territory income. There are also several other reasons, but both are the most important.


As for the title of Marquis upwards, they wanted to do so, but their group was too small. Not to mention, such upper class nobles usually looked down on them more. If they wanted to, maybe it was because they wanted to give Ciel face.


What Ciel and the others were looking for was a path to grow the business without relying on their rank or title. Of course, levels are still very useful because if they are too weak, they will be bullied or not too trusted.


“For now, at least ... we should have five space bags with an area of 25 cubic meters each. Need enough capital, but things like this are safer.” Ciel explained.


“Ugh! You are really extorting my money, Prince Ciel.” Ferel smiled bitterly.


Is correct. Needs that require money are like such equipment, Ferel takes care of it. Ciel himself has a section to look for suppliers. Of course, the supplier was also himself, so the price could be talked about. As for Savian, he became the one who opened the line and made the sale.


“I heard in the power area of the Guldebell Family has many metal mines.” Ciel smiled when he saw Ferel.


“Indeed. But in exchange, our territory is less fertile. Not to mention, many bengsawan from neighboring regions sell staple food at a price-


Waitaminute! You mean ..”


“True. For the sale of the harvest this season, we can bargain with your father.”


“You really blackmailed me to the end, Prince Ciel.” Ferel smiled bitterly.


“I think I helped you, Ferel.”


“You mean?” Ferel looked confused.


“I mean ... rather than buying at a high price, I will give you a minimal price. It cannot meet all your needs. However, it will lighten the burden of your area.”


“You want to sell to us at low price?” ask Ferel.


“Stupid. Of course not.” Ciel shakes.


“...”


Ferel and Savian fell silent, they did not know what to say. In the end, it could only wait for Ciel to explain.


Ciel then discussed the plan in his head. First, in addition to the necessities required by the entire region as well as some danger reserves, he would sell the rest.


What Ciel is selling will be divided into two. Half to Golden Dusk at a bargain price. The other half will be divided into traders who have good relations with the Ciel region. Of course, they would have to pay a little more.


Then, Golden Dusk will sell basic goods at a price that is quite cheap compared to other traders. In addition, the quality of the goods is better. Such a thing would definitely attract customers to them.


Of course, the selling price does not include the shipping cost. In shipping costs, distance and time determine the price. Of course, the farther away but want faster .. they have to add costs. Things like that are common.


After all, there were not many tools to open the teleportation gate. There is, but it is very expensive. The price of basic supplies is even lower than that of such a tool.


For the first time, Ciel wants Savian and his two protectors to deliver the goods in person. In addition to adding relationships and finding potential customers, doing so is also more efficient. More frugality means greater profits.


Ciel then suggests ideas like discounts or bonuses if making a massive purchase and such. Hearing those brilliant ideas that had not been heard before, Savian and Ferel's eyes shone brightly. Both are more enthusiastic.


“That's an amazing idea, Prince Ciel. I don't think about it at all.”


“That's because you rarely use your head, Ferel.” Savian mocked his partner, making Ciel smile.


“On stocks, no need to discuss anymore, right? As per the initial agreement, I am 40%, Savian 35%, and Ferel 25%.” Ciel said relax.


“Prince Ciel, although it is still early spring, I will try to talk about it to my father. I will persuade him to agree. This is very important for us.” Ferel said firmly.


“Do not pretend to be smart.” Ciel chuckles. “What do Savian and I really don't know what you think? If the business with the Guldebell Family goes smoothly, you receive a lot of benefits.”


“...”


Seeing Ferel silent, Ciel smiled. “You will get a good name because it can reduce the seasonal expenditure of the Guldebell Family for the region. It is of course beneficial for you, securing the position of the next head of the family. In addition, you will also benefit as a shareholder.”


“Didn't you also have a big profit, Prince Ciel?” ask Ferel.


“Not really. Actually, rather than the current value of the stock, the money I earned from the regular sale price would be greater. After all, this is a small group without a name. What I did was gamble.”


Hearing Ciel's words, the two nodded in agreement. It made the young man chuckle in his heart.


Actually, according to Ciel, what he was doing now was an investment. If the Golden Dusk Group became big, he would profit a lot. If the plan fails, Ciel loses only a small profit. Of course, others didn't think too much about it.


After conversing for a moment, Savian suddenly asked, “I have a request, Prince Ciel. Can you grant it?”


“I am not a God, so it is impossible to realize your request or hope.” Ciel chuckles. “If it's a small help, you can say it. I'll try to help.”


“Actually ... Arla wants to try to fight with you. Do you mind, Prince Ciel?” ask Savian.


“Want to know the difference in strength, huh?” mumbling Ciel.


Ciel then looked towards Savian, Ferel, and the two women. He then shook his head lightly.


Is correct. The person who wanted to become stronger and develop after that incident was not just me. They are the same …


With a smile on his face, Ciel said, “Sure I will not refuse a small request of a business partner.”


Is correct. Not only me, but they also .. rose after falling and became more mature.
