497 Chapter 371: Five-Stars Treasure-Sword of the Mourning [1/2]
5th of October.
They erected a brand new signboard in front of the Violet Manor.
It was wrapped in a red silk cloth and looked very festive.
On the vast signboard, the words "Violet Chamber of Commerce" were engraved in the common language of the continent.
At the same time, they enchanted the signboard with writing magic. Regardless of whether one knew how to read, as long as one saw a few enormous words on it, one could understand the meaning.
The development of magic had made it easy for this world with countless races to communicate with each other.
As a result, most of the races retained their own culture.
Only the common language of the continent, the original language left by the god of creation, was used by all races.
Richard was in a good mood as he looked at the brand-new signboard.
He had initially planned to name it Twilight City Chamber of Commerce, but he felt that it lacked the vigor to thrive after he thought about it,
He found the Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce more open and lively.
They officially established the Twilight City Chamber of Commerce in Solan City after they erected the signboard.
However, it was only an empty shelf for now.
Richard doesn't have anyone yet to manage.
"Congratulations, Lord Richard. It is a new beginning."
It won't be long before the Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce becomes the most famous Chamber of Commerce in the desert of death with the support of Twilight City.
Rebecca looked at Richard while they stood under the giant signboard. Her eyes burned.
She was the one who suggested the name of the Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce, and she did not expect Richard to accept it so readily.
Of course, what pleased her the most was that they could carry out future transactions between the two sides in Solan City. She would no longer need to send people into the desert of death with the Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce.
The harsh environment of the desert had left a deep psychological shadow in her heart.
"Next, I should consider how to build the framework of the Chamber of Commerce."
His gaze was apologetic as he spoke.
"The Frostwolf family doesn't have much of a foundation in Solan city. I'm afraid it's hard for them to help you in this aspect."
Richard turned back to look at the girl with the perfect face and determined eyes.
"Miss Rebecca, you've already helped me a lot. The Violet Manor is very expensive."
Rebecca's tone was light.
"It's nothing compared to Your Excellency's victory gemstone..."
The two looked at each other and suddenly smiled.
They had established a unique tacit understanding after they got along this time.
"Lord Richard, Christy could help you with the Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce framework.
"Although we have not established the Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce for a long time, it has the full support of Solan City."
"Even Chairman Windsor's Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce might not be as potent as the Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce in some aspects.
Richard nodded. He looked around but didn't see the little girl.
She had not come to the Violet Mercantile Chamber of Commerce this morning.
As he mumbled, a luxurious carriage embroidered with a special noble's coat of arms turned around the corner.
Herod.
The sound of horse hooves was crisp and clear. Twelve pure white high-quality war horses snorted a few times and slowly stopped in the open space in front of the manor.
The maidservant opened the door, and an elegant voice stepped out of the car.
A voice rang out before he even got close.
"Yeah, the signboard is hung up? Lord Richard, why didn't you wait for me?"
Christy mumbled and approached, her eyes wide with dissatisfaction while Richard stared at the dark circles under her eyes.
"We agreed on this yesterday..."
Her presence annoyed Richard. He asked, "What time is it now?"
Christy took out the dwarf-made clock in a daze. Her eyes immediately rolled around after a glance.
Finally, she said pitifully.
"I woke up late! Sorry! I won't do it again!"
Richard looked at the little girl who acted cute and did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"Alright, go in. It's just hanging a signboard. It's not a big deal."
What's more important is the Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce framework.
Christy seemed to have thought of something, and a smile appeared on her face again.
He looked at Richard with a smug smile.
"Lord Richard, the Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce is a major event. As your friend, I have a gift for you."
She retrieved a pitch-black longsword from her space ring as she spoke.
It was a violet orchid-decorated scabbard. Although it didn't match well with the sword, the other party had put in a lot of effort.
Christy handed the sword to Richard and pretended not to care.
"I spent a little time in the warehouse yesterday and found this gift that suits you…"
Richard took the sword, and it warmed his heart at the sight of the violet orchid.
This little girl must have decorated herself to be so ugly.
He revealed a smile on his face.
'Thank you for the gift, Christy. I like it very much."
Christy's eyes turned into crescents, and she held her head high. It was like a teacher had praised a child.
The joy in her heart was beyond words.
Richard chuckled and pinched her cheeks, laughing at the girl's protest.
The group entered the manor after a while.
Only then did Richard have the time to check the black sword's attributes.
