Bab 50: Pegasus Wheel Company.
For the past few weeks Merrina town has become the talk of all people in Halerus Kingdom, thanks to the new Store called Aeternum Super store that appeared out of nowhere. The store was revolutionary, selling multitude range of items, high quality tools, clothing articles that more soft and flashy than any noble boutique, high quality foods, and more importantly thousand kind of Spices and paper that as white as clouds.
The store never seems to runs out of product, the price is appropriate and affordable. the store provide a high class and fast service by their worker, everyone have only praised for this store. Though there's some rival merchant try to slander and even tried to copy their merchandise, the store never falter, instead, surprising enough The merchant associations and The Duke Merrica household comes to squash and punish the ill intended Merchant. No one dares to make move at them after that, The Store also seems to be connected to a mysterious C grade Mercenary group called 'The Maidens' who been garnered fame from eradicating multitude range of monsters all around the dukedom.
Everyone have their speculations that the store was own by a powerful mysterious organizations, yet up till now they have done nothing but doing business as usual and have known to done various donations to the unfortunate community, The stores has been pinned as Merrina Town hub, and the Duke household seems to be In good connections with them, due to that nobles also starts to become their regular patrons as they believe In the store and Duke reputations.
Seeing how they held their ground and how profitable the store is, hundreds of Merchant group starts to flock in, offering to become their partners. They do all kind of trick to attract the Store interest, even to the point of offering a Marriage and even threats, but The stores owner only replies with the same answer, 'Thank you..I will let you know the answer later..' or 'Your Threats Means nothing to us..please Leave'. the Owner of the stores was an extremely beautiful noble woman in her late 20's called Yvone White, Everyone sees her as a noble, calm and kind hearted lady, but to the other merchants, she was viewed as a business genius and a cold princess that will never move from any offer that were thrown at her. There's a case where a son of a noble tried to caress her bosom, instead the bastard were thrown out from the 1st floor with his hand broken and instead of getting punished, the family of the Noble bastard comes to the store and asked for appology.
A week ago me and Mr.Panderson to pay a visit to Aeternum super store, thankfully the 'Cold Princess' agree to meet with us, but gave no answer to us which kind of expected. I have been leading Pegasus Wheel company for 25 years, though we weren't that well known, but I have develop this company myself, and I Richard Ben Benson can proudly says without any backing from anyone, Pegasus Wheel already have spread to the whole central continent.
"Still no reply?..".
Looking at Mr.Panderson coming in with a coffee and a solemn face, I knew the news will be the same as everyday since a few days ago.
"Here's you coffee sir…apparently there's no reply from Aeternum store Ms. Yvone yet..they also haven't receive others offers..". (Mr. Panderson)
The white haired butler, Mr. Panderson was both Richard Ben Benson Butler and also a personal advisor. He was the loyal follower of The Benson Family, who have become the fallen noble due to siding with the wrong side in the power struggles in Alemia Nation. He and his master comes to Merrina town a few weeks ago, as to seek a possible business opportunity. But unlike their previous business deals this is by far the most lucrative and the hardest deal they have encounter.
"<Sigh!>…I wonder if we even qualified to be in their sight…do they never have any intentions to expand?..".
"Well..no one can predict what Ms.Yvone were thinking..But, in my opinion…we should never give up…<Knock! Knock!>…what is it?..". (Mr. Panderson)
As they were deep in their conversations, a knock comes from the door, and a Pegasus Wheel clerk were standing outside with a single white envelope in her hands.
"Sir…..Cold Princess has replied….Look..".(Mr. Panderson)
"hehehehehe…Panderson..looks like we already have one foot in the door....Tell everyone to be extra vigilant today…looks like everyone is eyeing this letter..". (Richard Ben Benson)
As he open the letter a a light fragrance waft to his nose it reminds him to one person, the Cold Princess, the letter only have one sentence, 'Tomorrow Afternoon'. The letter have no recipient or sender name, it was also send in a broad daylight by a Aeternum Clerk directly to the Pegasus Wheel Store. Which means only one thing, everyone seen Aeternum Super Store has replied, but as the letter has no recipient name anyone who have the letter can become the potential partner. It's a test, saying 'you want to become my partner?…then prove your capable', no one wants to do a business with someone who can't even protect a simple letter. Just as Richard predicts, all the others Merchant group already catch the news, and they even starts to make their moves. that night was unexpectedly loud in Merrina Town.

"Madam..gentlemen from Pegasus Wheel is here, should I let them in Now?..".(Captain Mot)
Mot was one of the maiden that comes along with Yvone, she's in charge as Yvone assistant and as the head of security.
"Let them in..".
Sitting inside her office, Yvone watch as the 2 gentlemen walks in.
"Greetings Miss Yvone..As always you look as beautiful as ever..".(Richard Ben Benson)
Though he tried to look his best, Richard Benson and Mr.Panderson clearly looks haggard, they look exhausted as if they don't have enough sleep.
"And you two look tired…. Please have a seat…".(Yvone)
Throwing an innocent smiles, Yvone invites them to sit down.
"There's a few bugs running around in my room last night…thankfully it's nothing big of deal..May I?…<Sllurpp!>..ahhh that's is a nice tea". (Richard Benson)
Awkwardly smiles as he put down the white envelop on the table and take a sip at Yvone served tea.
"i assume you Pegasus Wheel Company can handle a few bugs…if you aren't, then by all means you're not qualified to do business with us….Mr. Panderson, please drink, this is my favorite Tea…I called it Green Tea, not only It's taste great, but also good for your body..also, you can't find this anywhere in Fantasma..have a taste..". (Yvone)
"Hmmm…interesting..such exquisite taste..I never taste ant like it, it's a rarity indeed…thank you for the tea Miss..". (Mr.Panderson)
Mr.Panderson was shocked after he take a sip of the tea, because the tea not only taste great but also doing something to his body, as soon as the tea flows down his throat, he felt his mana flows responds to it as if it was refining his mana flows and expelling the impurities slowly with each gulp he takes.
"You're welcome…then I supposed we should get down to the business, sine you have proved that you're able to hold you're end..Aeternum Super Store is agree to make Pegasus Wheel Company it's Distributor…". (Yvone)
Richard and Mr' Panderson can't help but shows a tinge of happiness as they heard the words 'agree', but the word Distributor puzzle them.
"We were happy to hear your words of acknowledgements Miss Yvone…but Distributor..what does it meant?..". (Richard Benson)
"Hmm?..oh, Distributor is an intermediary entity that exist between manufacturer and customers supply goods to the public customers…in other words it's you guys, Pegasus Wheel Company…we provide the goods and you sell them around…it's as simple as that..". (Yvone)
"Oh…Hahaha, pardon us Miss, it's just you use a complicated terms..which we never heard before..".(Mr.Panderson)
Richard Benson cough to clear his embarrassment, thanks to Mr.Panderson they don't appear aloof.
"Here's are our terms…I believe it won't be to demanding…in fact this probably the most profitable deal you have ever seen…but instead, we expect you honor this terms to the letter..because we held our standard high and we expect the same from our partner..". (Yvone)
Mot comes in with 3 sets of 1 inch agreements paper, and she put them down on the table before giving them to Richard Ben Benson, Mr.Panderson and Yvone.
