Gabriella and the merchants were already waiting for Don when he entered the throne hall as they stood up from their seats.
"Sit" Don motioned them to sit as he sat in his throne
"I took a look at the quotations and discussed it with my people, Gabriella"
Don could see the concerned look on the merchants' faces but Gabriella looked neutral and did not show any reaction
"You got yourselves a deal" as he said, Don waved his hand and then, a pouch filled with low-quality life energy stones appeared before him and flew towards Gabriella
Unlike before, after hearing Don a relieved look emerged in Gabriella's eyes as the merchants smiled in delight
"Inside, you will find half of the full payment, I'll give you the rest when you bring the promised goods"
"We would bring them as soon as possible, your majesty" She rose from her seat and said with the bow
