In this quiet atmosphere, Pekkala's confidence gradually changed from sufficient at the beginning to a little nervous.
After a moment, when Claire 'pried' open the fourth shell, Avis finally smiled and nodded.
"I can work with you, Pekkala."
But when the girl just breathed a sigh of relief and had no time to show her excitement, Anvis suddenly changed the subject.
"However, I will not sign any contract with you. It is just a verbal agreement. Can you accept it?"
In this world where magic is everywhere, signing a contract means leaving traces.
Although he values the resources of the White Rose Chamber of Commerce, as a descendant of a great nobleman, he secretly reached a cooperation agreement with a chamber of commerce. This kind of thing cannot be brought to light in the end, so it is best not to leave any clues.
Pekkala was stunned for a moment, her pink lips pursed slightly, and a trace of hesitation appeared on her cute little face.
But soon she figured out Anvis's purpose, and while biting secretly with her little tiger teeth, she nodded vigorously.
"Okay, I believe in your promise."
She remembered what her mother told her before she left: find a way to get in touch with a real descendant of a great noble.
Regardless of whether Anvis keeps her promise in the end, using the resources of the Chamber of Commerce in exchange for Anvis' favor is indeed the best choice for her at this time.
Although she currently has the right to freely mobilize some resources, those are the resources of the Cromire Chamber of Commerce, her father who is the president of the Chamber of Commerce, not her and her mother.
Seeing the girl's performance, Anvis smiled softly, picked up the clear goblet filled with blue juice, reflected the flickering light blue candlelight in the cup, and signaled to Pekkala.
"Then, happy working together -"
"Well, happy working together!"
After making up her mind, Pekkala relaxed. When she heard Anvis's words, she raised her glass with the same smile.
Seeing a cooperation involving tens of millions of gold coins being completed in front of her eyes, Claire, who was sitting next to the two of them, couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
Even though she didn't attach much importance to money, she was shocked by the huge amount involved in this cooperation.
"Very good. Now, I happen to have something that requires the help of the White Rose Chamber of Commerce Alliance."
After making the decision, Anvis spoke directly, preparing to use the resources that were delivered to his door.
"Um, do you need me to avoid it first?"
Without waiting for Pekkala to answer, Claire suddenly spoke softly, interjecting in advance.
Listening to the conversation between the two, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable sitting here.
"It's okay, Senior Claire, this is not something that needs to be kept secret."
Spreading his hands wearing pure white gloves on the table, Anvis smiled elegantly at Claire, trying to appease the half-elf girl who was shocked by the huge amount of gold coins involved in their conversation.
What the girl didn't know was that her own value in Anvis' heart was even higher than the entire White Rose Chamber of Commerce alliance packaged together.
"How much do you know about the 'cursed ore'?"
"Curse Ore?"
Pekkala was stunned for a moment and carefully searched for the information in her mind. Soon, she nodded clearly.
"I remembered that stone that came from the cursed land and had a strange force field that would cause miners and ordinary people living near the mines to suffer from all kinds of strange deformities.
Cursed ores can be extracted into cursed metals. Like demon-hating metals, there are many types of cursed metals. Some types of curse fields are stronger, and some are lower.
However, most cursed metals are low-level materials, and only a few types can reach high-level materials. "
After Pekkala finished speaking, Claire on the side also added something.
“In occultism, there is a special kind of alchemy that can use a large amount of cursed ore to permanently transform ordinary metals into pure gold.
However, since the value of the cursed ore consumed in casting the spell far exceeds the value of the converted gold, no one will actually use this spell to obtain gold. "
"Yes, that's it."
Anvis nodded slightly, confirming what the two said, and then he turned to Pekkala and expressed his needs.
"I need all kinds of cursed ore samples from the cursed lands that the White Rose Chamber of Commerce can acquire, as well as the specific locations of these cursed lands -"
"Samples of all kinds of ores and the location of the Cursed Lands?"
Pekkala was stunned for a moment, and thoughts suddenly came to her mind.
It requires ore samples and the location of the mining area. This is obviously looking for a specific cursed ore origin.
What does Avis need so much cursed ore for?
Is this some kind of test for me? Based on the results of my acquisition, will you decide whether to deepen cooperation with me?
With her mind spinning, the girl didn't ask any questions, but nodded quickly.
"Okay, I will arrange all this within three days."
She quickly calculated in her mind that she knew that there were seventeen cursed places directly controlled by the Cromir Chamber of Commerce.
Among them, seven large cursed places produce low-level black stone, yellow mark ore, etc., while ten small ones produce mid-level black edge ore, blood-cursed ore, and high-level omphacite.
As for those mining areas that belong to other chambers of commerce in the alliance, as well as those that simply sell cursed ore to the alliance, Pekara also knows about forty or fifty locations.
Although there are several high-level cursed places, cursed ore is not a rare and expensive resource.
On the contrary, due to its very obscure uses, even high-level cursed ores are not very expensive among similar-level ores.
Pekkala didn't know what Avis was going to do with them, but she didn't care.
The girl has made a decision. She will use all the resources in her hands to search for the Cursed Land, including several high-level mining areas secretly controlled by the family, and provide as many samples to Anvis as possible.
And wrote a letter to her father explaining what happened.
Even if the family's cursed place may change hands later, he won't hesitate.
In her opinion, it is completely worth it to use some cursed places of little value to build Avis's relationship.
"Okay, then I'm waiting for your good news."
Anvis nodded. Unlike the many ideas in Pekkala's mind, his purpose was actually very simple.
——He wants to control these so-called cursed ores to the maximum extent, but they are actually suspected to be the source of radioactive ores.
The reason is also very simple: the players' ability to cause trouble is too strong.
If you don't control these, when the server is officially launched in the future, with the help of magic, they will even dare to create a big Ivan for you with bare hands!
Anvis didn't want a few players who didn't care about money to suddenly pop up and go around doing art with mushroom bombs strapped to their bodies.
That was all the territory of the empire. Rounding it off, it was approximately equal to his.
If a player who is not afraid of death equips Big Ivan, he will become a veritable fourth natural disaster!
