Starting Life as a Baron

Chapter 46: The Confident Alan

Alan smiled when he heard these words. His smile was cold, disdainful, and even a little disappointed.

"It looks like I won't be able to work with your chamber of commerce."

Alan indifferently said, "Although I'm only a Baron, my factory is not big, and I don't have any channels."

"However, I have enough confidence that perfume will definitely become the favorite item of women in the future, and it will have a large market."

"My conditions are already very generous. Since you think that they are not good, then we don't have to continue talking. I don't think that I wont be able to sell my perfume without you, nor do I think that your chamber of commerce is the only chamber of commerce."

"Miss Anna, please understand your current position. You only have some shops and channels. You are not my only partner, but I am your only partner, understand?"

Alan spoke with a cold expression. The change in his attitude caused Anna's expression to freeze for a moment. Of course, Anna understood her strengths and weaknesses.

However, in the previous conversation, she had deliberately emphasized her own advantages and downplayed her disadvantages. She even mentioned Alan's disadvantages to suppress the opponent.

From her point of view, Alan was nothing more than a fifteen-and-sixteen-year-old kid. He might have the ability to govern his territory, but when it came to business, Anna didn't take him seriously at all.

Anna was a smart woman. She had a stunningly beautiful face and a slender and fiery figure. A woman like her was enough to make countless men fall in love with her.

In the past, those men would directly agree to her request as long as she revealed a smile or a closer attitude when she talked about business.

Earlier she had also smiled in front of Alan, and even got close to him, perfectly showing her charm, but Alan did not waver at all.

He even pointed out the disadvantages of her chamber of commerce.

Damn it, why is this little fellow so difficult to deal with?

On the surface, Anna's expression did not change at all, but inwardly, she was already starting to feel troubled.

She wanted to win the perfume business at all costs because she knew that perfume would definitely sweep across the entire continent's market in the days to come.

This was an opportunity for her, and her chamber of commerce.

"Hehe, Lord Baron must be joking. I am not looking down on you. With your talent, wisdom, and ability, your future achievements will definitely be more than just a Baron."

Anna said with a smile. She was telling the truth. In her opinion, Alan would definitely have extraordinary achievements in the future.

"Since you are unwilling to share the formula and production method, then just pretend that I didn't say anything. Everything will be done according to your wishes. However, can we discuss our profit share?"

Anna no longer asked for the formula and production method, but she needed to fight for her benefits.

"Of course, we can discuss it."

Alan immediately revealed a smile, as if the person whose expression had changed just now was not him.

Looking at the speed at which Alan changed his face, Anna could not help but curse him as a little fox in her heart.

"I can take a step back and give you 40% of the profit, but I need some support from the Roland Chamber of Commerce."

Alan said calmly.

This time Anna looked slightly surprised: "Support?"

"I guess Miss Anna came to the Thorn Flower Territory this time because of the upcoming war, right? War is the best opportunity for merchants to make money, after all."

Alan said indifferently.

Anna's face changed. She had only found out about the upcoming war between the Lane Principality and the Blue Moon Principality after the analysis of the high-ups of the chamber of commerce.

How could this little Baron know such a thing?

It had to be known that she had seen many nobles in the Lane Principality. Not to mention Alan, who was just a Baron, most viscounts, and even some Earls were unaware of this upcoming war.

Only an Earl like Albert, who was close to the border, could make this kind of guess. At present, the Lane Principality of Lane had not released any news, so Alan should not have known about it.

"It looks like you are different from the other Barons. Your eyes, knowledge, and wisdom are one in a hundred."

Anna smiled. "But you should know that the least important things in this world are talents like you."

"If you want to gain the support of the Roland Chamber of Commerce, it is not enough to rely on perfume alone. You must know that supporting a nobleman is a huge investment."

Anna spoke calmly, "Your situation does not meet the standards of our Roland Chamber of Commerce."

Alan's face remained calm after hearing this. "Sparrow."

He softly called out to the shrewd financial officer with a small beard, who was standing behind him.

Sparrow snapped his fingers, and a maid immediately walked in with a box.

"I wonder if Miss Anna can support me because of these two things?"

Alan changed his statement. He did not ask for the support of the Roland Chamber of Commerce. Instead, he changed it to Anna.

These are the two different concepts.

Anna became curious and stared at Alan. She did not know what was inside the box that made Alan so confident.
