Marquis' Express Butler

I did not deliberately look at the contract. It's too early to start the game We need to take a closer look at the duc's health.

At that time, the duc clapped once and called the maid.

“Bring me a precious car. ”

“Yes, my lord. ”

The maid retreats, and a strange aromatic car comes up shortly. It was the first car I had ever seen, but the Duke followed me.

“It's quiet around here today. ”

I laughed and handed over the farm, and the baron smiled and was told. He follows the car and fills his cup moderately.

“I feel uncomfortable with you. You've all been bitten today. ”

“It's the opposite, isn't it? ”

The Duke raises his chin as if to ask what he is talking about. I decided to be honest. You only see people crouching in front of you every time, so you have to let them see you. Fresh.

“I think those who are gone are jealous of my abilities. Rude, inconclusive, it seemed to discourage my invention, my company's possibilities. Rather, I came here for the Duke. ”

The Duke who was staring at me suddenly burst out a big smile.

“Hahahaha. There's a point to what you're saying. But they're also the midgets who work for our family. Don't worry, I'm worried about you. ”

“I understand, but I seem to be wary of becoming important to the Duke. A merchant born into a humble family? ”

“What's the point of identity? Ultimately, human abilities matter. ”

The duc tastes the tea first. It doesn't look like a car with poison or a single pill. The gaze that was looking down at the teacup flew to me.

“In that sense, you're better than any baron. Should I say something credible? He's young. You know, I've been on the front lines a long time. It's a peaceful time now, so it's all old news...... but it was a very chaotic time for me. There was fighting everywhere, and it was bad. After going through all that trouble, after going through a lot of people, I got a sense of self-esteem. ”

The old man's repertoire begins. Like, "Lattes are horses." Suddenly I want a cafeteria. I'll have to import coffee beans and go to the market later.

“It's the Duke's reputation that no one knows about. ”

“How you do it will determine your livelihood. Either you're going to be a master of that merchandise, or you're going to be a master of a giant corporation that extends across the realm and into the continent. ”

“I like the latter. ”

“Is this your goal? ”

“It's my dream to be the best man on the continent. And that's why I'm here today. ”

The Duke smiled and pointed to the contract by hand.

“Then we'll have to go through the first gate. You want to check it out? ”

“Yes.”

I looked at the contract.

It is not another family, but a contract from the Bahamuts. It is quite possible that various traps and toxins are hidden.

They seem to respect me, but their goal is to take advantage.

“First of all, it reflects well what I said. ”

“Of course I do. A promise is a promise.”

A promise is a promise.I don't know how long it'll last.

The contract contained an agreement to invest 100,000 gold in Mathis shortly after the contract was concluded and to build a three-story building in the heart of the Kingdom. It also included responsibility for establishing an industrial facility in the Toure region.

Toure is a city situated between the Royal Road and the Adeline Territory. The roads are well-paved, populated, and well trafficked, making it a great place to transport supplies.

But this was a little different from what I said. I wanted the king to set up a production facility nearby, but the Toure is a short distance away.

What's he up to?

I thought about it for a while.

“Is there a reason you have established production facilities in the Toure area? Of course, I know it's the head of the Triad. ”

“There's a mercenary camp where my family invested. The cost of transportation is the most you have to transport goods anyway. With that in mind, we can set up a production facility in Ture, and increase our efficiency if the mercenaries we watch stick together. ”

“Which mercenaries are you? ”

“The Blue Dragon.”

Why don't you just call them mercenaries of your own family? That's a great name.But the mercenaries the Duke is looking out for will be huge.

“So we don't have a choice between mercenaries? ”

“It's not like that, but if you want the cheapest and the best, you'll need the Blue Dragon. ”

“Actually, I was getting ready to start my own mercenary army. I was going to put this plan into practice.... ”

The duc's eyes sparkle. The awkward silence shivers for a moment. Eventually, he smiled and raised his cup of tea.

“Well, it's common to organize mercenaries at the top. But do you have any experience with that? ”

“I'm here for now. ”

“It's not about strength. Experience and strength are different things. I've had many experiences on the battlefield. It was the Blue Dragon who shared the experience. That's why they were able to grow so fast. ”

I nodded without a soul.

I don't think he'll keep it in his heart as long as he talks. If you give a job to the Blue Dragon, it's a clear picture of money for the Bahamuts.

Above all, I have a clear plan.

Mercenary group. Calmond should have all the basic preparations by now.

The mercenaries were named the Avengers. It's the name of the organization I used to use, and I miss it, and it looks strong.

You have gained considerable practical experience while cleaning up the dark side of Adeline. He's been cleaning up the Black Pigs and since then absorbing small groups of tissue. Other training has been repeated, like hell. You cannot assign them to office or production positions that are more familiar with weapons than a pen, so they have been reassigned as mercenaries for their aptitude.

Soon, Adeline's darkest hours will be cleared up, and then we'll be able to put them into full mercenary work.

“Then may we proceed with the matter of hiring mercenaries as we deal with Mathis? ”

“Suit yourself. ”

“Then I'll insert provisions for that part. ”

The duc who was staring at me nodded. Evidence of dissatisfaction.

I put an additional clause in one part of the contract with a ballpoint pen. ‘All costs required to transport the product will be borne by Mathis and all procedures will be governed by Mathis.’ This is enough.

“Check it out. ”

“Well……. ”

The duc looks at the inserted clause and nods.

“Not bad. ”

“And I have one more thing to discuss. This contract is missing a very important part. The term of the contract. ”

Whether or not I was looking at myself very well with water, the contract period was not specified.

“I thought it said something about the term of the contract. House Bahamuth and the council of Mathis cooperate and advance until the name endures. ”

“It's not a reasonable contract. Contracts must include explicit terms and be amenable to the terms upon renewal. ”

This part could be advantageous to me and could be disadvantageous, but I decided it was best to cut short the duration of the contract.

“Nothing bad for me, to be honest, but you might be disappointed. ”

The duc doesn't seem convinced, so he explained why.

“Now it's an option to give you 3 percent of the total revenue, but what if we could grow and conquer the continent in the future? Won't he regret the day he signed this deal? ”

“Hmm……. ”

“So it's a good idea to do it on a one-year basis. We need to revise the details of the situation so we can produce compelling results for each other. ”

The duc tucked his chin and continued thinking for a long time.

I don't think he made this decision because he was stupid and needy. Money is money, but it was a decision to sustain his influence on Mathis forever.

I understand, but I'm not going to play to your standards.

Shortly after, the duc decides.

“Good. I accept your opinion. On one condition. ”

“Speak.”

“I'll give you the baron's title. Take it. ”

It was a ploy to influence in other ways.

It's not unexpected. One of the conditions suggested in the beginning when Duke Midas asked me to give up everything in the fountain pen was the baron's title.

When the title "Duke of Bahamut's Imperial Court" comes up, he's a little off his feet.

On the surface, it's an honor to be the head of the Bahamuth family. However, on the other hand, he is determined to have an impact on Mathis.

It's definitely a poisonous Holy Grail.

But I decided to use the poison in the Holy Grail without spilling it. If the poison is diluted properly, it can sometimes be used as a medicine.

“Very well, Baron. I'll take it. ”

“Do you want a vomit? ”

“A small mansion in the royal capital is enough. I have to go around anyway, so I won't be able to manage it properly even with a burlap. ”

“Fine. I'll take care of it. Soon we'll have the inauguration ceremony. Then you'll have a chance to say hello to everyone. They're planning a very big banquet. ”

“That banquet should be after Princess Ofelia's birthday party. ”

“The nobles will come to the royal court just in time to attend the party, so it would be a good time to catch the day. ”

“It's an honor, Mr. President. ”

I think I need to be more excited about Dylan as well. Dylan is still the Baron. Su-hyun, a dual identity, assumed the title of Baron. I'm officially a nobleman.

A moment of silence passes, and the duc tilts his head.

“Did Duke Castro approach you? ”

Duke Castro was the Duke of the Kingdom, in hostile relations with Duke Midas. The sphere of power was distributed between the two ducs.

I laughed.

It was the question I wanted to ask. Again, his hastiness was based on a heart that was afraid that static would take me away.

“Regrettably, Duke Castro didn't give me much of a chance. ”

“That's the limit of Duke Castro. Suspicious and always working late. Anyway, welcome to my side. You won't regret this. ”

“Can I sign the contract first? ”

“Sure."

Me and the Duke signed each agreement and split it one by one. And notarized by the administrators of the kingdom. That concludes all contracts.

“I hope you'll take good care of it. Master Soo-hyun.”

“I pledge allegiance. ”

I took a godly example.
