After the introduction was done, Alex half bowed toward the Viscount Ashok Sen and said,
"Nice to have you here, Lord Ashok.
"I am happy to be here."
Ashok Sen stretches his hand for a handshake. Alex showed a fake surprise face however took his hand for a handshake anyway.
"How can I help you, Your Highness and Lord Viscount?"
Alex asked.
Viscount looked at Prince Robin. Prince Robin nodded and ask,
"We want to order beers."
He said straightly to him. Alex nodded with an understanding glare and said,
"No Problem. However, you need to wait for the night, you know why, isn't it, your highness?"
"Yes, he delivers the barrel of alcohol when you go to sleep at night. And not only that you have to pay in advance."
The Prince gives Ashok Sen a quotation and terms and conditions for him. Ashok Sen nodded and asked,
"Yes, how many barrels of the beer you can give me?"
"Two barrels for now. However, it is not time for that, let's talk about business."
Alex said. Ashok Sen looked at Robin and then asked,
"What kind of business?"
"You see. If I deliver the barrels of beer as a middle man, then what are the benefits for me?"
Alex asked him. As a businessman, he understood what he meant. There is no benefit for Alex if he just delivers them the beer. And it is given that, he wants to gain something from it, even if he would do the same in his place. In the first place, the price of this level of alcohol is too cheap than the market value. He didn't ask much and said,
"1000 Gold per barrel."
"1500 Gold."
Alex said.
"1100 Gold."
Ashok Sen bargained.
"1400 Gold."
Alex replied.
"Let's keep it middle, 1250 Gold. I cannot give you more than that."
Ashok bargains for the benefit of both.
"You know that this will consume like water in a sink. 1300 fixed. I cannot give you a lower than that. No matter what you do."
Alex said.
"Okay deal."
Having a smile on his face he forwards his hand toward Alex for a handshake. Alex took his hand and smiled. He will become f-ck-ng rich.
"Deal."
Though Prince has some idea about business, he was astonished at how Alex handled one of the oldest and richest company owners. However, he thinks that Viscount still income more than triple time.
"However, there is another condition."
Ashok Sen's smiling face vanished and asked,
"What condition?"
Alex looks behind him. And said,
"Let's go to our restaurant."
Ashok Sen bend his neck and said,
"That's your restaurant? In the outside of the safe zone?"
"Yes, in the outside of the safe zone."
Alex smiled.
"Okay, let's go there."
Three of them went into the restaurant and sat at the same table.
"Please, say now, what condition do you have now?"
Ashok Sen asked.
"As you can see, this restaurant is out of nowhere, unpopular, and underdeveloped."
Alex paused and looked at them. Both of them nodded after his statements about his restaurant.
"I want to develop this restaurant. For that, I need a sponsor. So, If you help us to do this, I will promote your product here. As you know, many people will come here in the future, for good or for bad."
Alex said.
"Well, that's easy for me. I will send you people who will build you a proper building."
Ashok replied nonchalantly. He again asked,
"Anything more?"
"I will sell the beer here too. However, it will be gone by your brand. I will also buy the bottle with the brand from you, however, I will sell here at 20% less than your main rate. However, they also have to become VIP members and have to eat something alongside it. Regular customers have to buy according to the price you place on a bottle. To use your company name I will give you 30% of the total profit, Will that be okay?"
Alex said about his other statement.
"Well, selling 20% less than my pricing will be really lost for me in terms of popularity, however, because you are the main dealer of that, I will comply with you, and you also gave me 30% of the profit, and still will be using my brand, so I am fine with it? Anything more?"
He asked him if has any more conditions about that.
"Yes, It's not a condition. It's just a request. I want to have a free pass in your city. I can go in and out anytime I want. This will be only for me from this camp. Will it be possible?"
Alex asked.
"Of course, why not? You are my trade partner who opened business outside of the restricted area and gives services to those who are come and go there for various kinds of missions."
Alex understood the meaning of those sentences. He stood up and smile.
"I will deliver you two barrels of beer tomorrow. I hope we have a good business deal in the near future."
This time he forwards his hand toward Ashok Sen, Ashok Sen also stood up and grab his hand.
