What the hell did he mean by cutting off 10%?! This wasn't supposed to be a negotiation!
Brigand had sent these items with a certain profit margin in mind, and Alma couldn't fathom failing her master.
Just when she was about to erupt, Derrick spoke again.
"That 10% is what you'd owe me after the sale. Basically, I won't be taking anything from the market, at least for now. Consider it a gesture of goodwill"
Derrick's heart ached when the words left his mouth, but it was necessary.
If the market failed, it would set a terrible precedent, and he would also lose the only merchant that currently had access to a variety of products. This could not be allowed to happen.
Alma's temper took a 180 when she heard Derrick's justification, and a huge smile appeared on her pretty face.
"You should have said so sooner"
Derrick shrugged the remark before leaving the establishment.
