#452 - You're welcome (asking for monthly ticket recommendation)

But perhaps in Bianca's eyes, a trade volume of 500,000 Galleons was already astronomical, after all, this was just an increase in the quota for an alchemy company.

And if the tariffs on 500,000 were all calculated at 30%, that would be an extra income of 150,000 Galleons, such a large sum of money would probably be enough to pay all the employees of the Ministry of Magic for half a year.

So it's no wonder Bianca was so excited.

"It's March now, and there are still 9 months left this year, 500,000 might be enough, but it's still very likely to exceed the limit. If it really doesn't work, I can only use the quota of other companies. Bianca, you need to be mentally prepared," Anduin poured cold water on this kind director after calculating it in detail in his mind.

"What? 500,000 a year is not enough?" Bianca looked at Anduin with a blank expression when she heard his words. The reason why he was so excited was because the quota was raised too high. He had actually been emboldening and comforting himself.

"According to my calculations, it's not enough. I can supply all the orders from Egypt within two months. It may only take them 6-8 months to sell them all. The first year is a market vacuum period, and the shipping speed will exceed your imagination," Anduin replied indifferently.

"Are you sure? Two months?" Bianca looked at Anduin in disbelief. He knew the order amount, was Anduin a little too confident?

Anduin's estimated sales were much higher than those of several Ministry of Magic directors, mainly because they didn't understand Anduin's production methods. Anduin couldn't explain it to them in detail. It would be good if those orders could be produced in ordinary alchemy workshops within half a year, but Anduin only needed to add a few more lathes when he went back, and his underground factory could complete them all in two months.

"My calculations are already quite conservative. What you need to consider now is the issue of quota allocation, and the trade volume for next year also needs to be increased again. Will this cause trouble?" Anduin asked.

"Well, although the trade agreement is signed every three years, small increases and decreases can be made every year. Of course, the quota cannot exceed 30%. This is also why we feel a lot of pressure when approving 500,000. It will be troublesome if sales decline next year."

Bianca was still a little uncertain about Anduin's words at this time, but he had never done business himself, so he could only reply with suspicion.

"Okay, remember to submit an application to the International Confederation of Wizards at the beginning of next year to raise the quota to the highest level, otherwise what awaits us will be endless smuggling. Anyway, I don't care, the extra losses will have to be borne by the Ministry of Magic and my partner companies," Anduin shrugged helplessly.

He wasn't trying to scare people. Anduin could foresee that once the export limit was reached, when those foreign partner distribution companies started to run out of stock, someone would soon risk coming to England to bring goods. They could directly buy spot goods from Anduin's company and smuggle them back.

"This…" Bianca was a little panicked by Anduin's bluff, but he still couldn't believe it in his heart.

But Anduin ignored what Bianca was thinking and told him that he wanted to postpone his return to China.

The ostensible excuse was that Anduin wanted to meet with commercial representatives from various countries locally to discuss the business of agent distributors. This made sense, after all, at this time in Egypt, a large number of merchants from various countries gathered, making it very convenient to do business.

The real reason was naturally for bloodline transfiguration. It would take a week just to prepare the materials, and he didn't plan to bring the Thunderbird back to England.

When Bianca learned of Anduin's plan, he said that he would stay with him.

You must know that Anduin is now the darling of the Ministry of Magic and must be taken care of.

Therefore, in the next few days, Anduin met with commercial representatives from various countries during the day, accompanied by Bianca and Bones, and sneaked into the camp at night to conduct research and familiarize himself with Gerard's living habits to prepare for disguise.

During this period, Bianca became more and more convinced of Anduin's previous claims. In just a few days, they reached agreements with the Ministries of Magic and local chambers of commerce of 7 countries. If the orders were added to those negotiated with local Egyptian companies, the amount had exceeded 200,000 Galleons.

Seeing that half of the trade quota was used up in a few days, Bianca's forehead was covered with sweat, but he also gained a lot of knowledge. He really learned from Anduin what is called 'pattern'.

……

Late at night, a week after successfully capturing the Thunderbird.

Anduin put down the faceless mask covered in blood. Just now, he had completed the bloodline transfiguration, and the process went very smoothly.

At this time, the mask that originally belonged to the Thunderbird had been branded with Anduin's mark. From then on, he could use the mask function normally. Based on this alone, it would be difficult for the people in the Silver Spear to doubt his true identity.

After successfully completing the bloodline transfiguration, Anduin couldn't wait to put on the mask, and then activated his mental power to intervene in the communication interface.

Soon, a 'address book' that was much more complex than Iseron's appeared in his mind. Anduin identified it in detail. There were 33 contactable targets in the Thunderbird's mask, which was much more than the few contacts in Iseron's mask.

Among them, 3 were lit up, proving that the masks represented by these targets were within the communication range of this mask, and the mask communication range of the Silver Spear basically covered the entire Egypt, which meant that there were still 3 Silver Spears in Egypt.

"One is the Sphinx, one should be Aselia, then the last one should be the Sphinx's subordinate. It's completely consistent with the Thunderbird's description," Anduin nodded with satisfaction.

The Thunderbird is now one of the founders of the Silver Spear, and knows many members. Anduin had also learned from the Thunderbird that there were 1 spear, 2 short spears, including the 'Golden Snitch' and two headquarters members, 9 spears, 21 short spears, including the four members of the infiltration team and the Occamy.

Removing these five dead people, Aselia, the two Silver Spears in Egypt, then there are 8 remaining unknown spears and 14 short spears. This is basically the majority of the Silver Spear's manpower. Of course, there are some Silver Spears that the Thunderbird doesn't know that are not recorded, but the impact is not significant.

After dealing with the mask, Anduin carried the Dark Annihilation and came to the tent where the Thunderbird was imprisoned.

"It seems you have succeeded?" The Thunderbird, still tied to the medical bed, raised his head, looked at the long sword in Anduin's hand, and then at the mask in his other hand, and immediately smiled frankly.

"Not bad, the test was very successful," Anduin nodded lightly, "I'm here to send you on your way!"

"Thank you, Anduin. In these few days, I have felt the last peace of my life." At this time, the Thunderbird's expression no longer had the arrogance and madness of the past, only a little open-mindedness remained. It seemed that he had really figured it out in these few days.

"You're welcome."

"Pfft!"

Anduin replied softly, and then unhesitatingly stabbed the long sword in his hand into the Thunderbird's chest. At this time, the Thunderbird... Gerard's face became a little hideous because of the severe pain, but he still supported his last breath, and desperately grasped the sword with his left hand, and shouted to Anduin word by word:

"I... wait for you... to send my brothers... and... the Runespoor to see me!"

After saying this, the light in Gerard's eyes also disappeared, and then he slumped weakly on the hospital bed.

"Don't worry, you will see them soon!" Anduin put his hand on the Thunderbird's face and silently closed his eyes for him.

Anduin may feel sorry for this Thunderbird, but he will never sympathize with him, so it is impossible to let him go.

However, Anduin had actually planned to keep him alive before, not because he felt sorry for him, but because he wanted to use him as an experimental subject. After all, he had never seen a wizard with such a good physique and such high strength.

But after the Thunderbird fully confessed to him, he had asked him to grant him liberation afterwards.

Anduin had agreed to this at the time, so he had to keep his promise.

As for experimental materials, Anduin believed that he would be able to collect them again soon.

After killing the Thunderbird, Anduin did not immediately pull out the Dark Annihilation inserted in his chest, but allowed the long sword to absorb his blood. He only promised to give him a quick death, but he did not promise to ensure the integrity of his body.

"Master, what shall we do next?"

Hogg, who had been watching from the side, looked at the Dark Annihilation, which was constantly absorbing blood from the Thunderbird like a sponge and flashing a faint scarlet halo, swallowed nervously, and then asked as if to change the subject.

"After the Dark Annihilation has absorbed enough blood, dissect the Thunderbird. You will be responsible for recording it later, do you understand?" Anduin's eyes kept observing the condition of the Dark Annihilation, and replied indifferently at the same time.

"Yes, Master!"

Hogg was speechless when he heard this and looked at the Thunderbird's body. Look at you, you only know how to ask the boss to send you on your way, and you don't even know how to let him handle your funeral for you. Now you are going to be sliced and studied, don't you know that my master is so upright?

……

After dealing with the Thunderbird's affairs, Anduin's trip to Egypt finally came to an end, and he also returned to England with Bianca and his party using a Portkey.

At this time, the entire British wizarding world had spread the news about Anduin winning the 'International Alchemical Conference Pioneering Contribution Gold Award'. Newspapers and radio stations were also reporting extensively, and of course, there was no shortage of publicity for Silver Flash Commerce.

This was equivalent to a disguised GG for Anduin, and Anduin knew in his heart that this was actually the Ministry of Magic repaying him. First of all, he had brought honor to England in the international arena, and secondly, Anduin's concessions were not insignificant in the process of signing international trade agreements.

Therefore, they were definitely going all out to promote this future gold master of the British Ministry of Magic.
