Quinn John froze for a moment, then he put down the pen in his hand and looked at Laura. "Evan really said that? Did he agree? "
Laura nodded and said, "Yes, Grand Duke Evan already agreed. From the beginning, he said that he would help me take care of the store. Looking at his appearance, he seems to be very serious, he doesn't seem to want to snatch our store. Therefore, I proposed a 40-60 split, which he agreed to."
Quinn John thought for a moment, then nodded. "That's good, but you have to make it clear to Grand Duke Evan that the store's manager is our trusted subordinate. If we need to use people in the future, he will have to let them go."
Laura understood Quinn John's meaning. For a merchant, talents were very important. Even if they were to leave the Purcell Duchy, leave the Aksu Empire, and go to other countries, they would still need to do business for a living. If they wanted to do business, they wouldn't be able to do it without trustworthy people, which was why Quinn John said that.
Laura nodded. "Rest assured, Grandpa Quinn John. I will tell them. But this way, the contents of the letter will have to be changed."
Quinn John nodded and said, "Then we'll have them come to Casa City tomorrow. After they arrive here, we'll inform them about these things so that they can be prepared. I've already had Searle tidy up our vault and pack everything we need. Fortunately, mister gave us a few Space Bags, otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to fit all of these things." Quinn John nodded and said, "Alright.
Laura smiled bitterly, then she turned to Quinn John and asked, "What about my father?"
Quinn John smiled bitterly. "In his eyes, what could be more important than his treasures? He went to pack up his treasures. "
Laura couldn't help but smile bitterly. Of course, she knew what Quinn John was talking about. The treasures that Quinn John was talking about were the books on magic arrays that Karen had collected over the years, as well as some of his experimental notes. In Karen's eyes, those things were more important than anything else.
Laura looked at Quinn John. "Grandpa Quinn John, where do you think we should go this time? Directly leave the Purcell Duchy? "
Quinn John put down his pen and thought for a moment. "Of course we can't leave directly. Right now, we only have two paths. One is to go to the Beastmen Prairie. We have some business there. This time, we will go directly to the Beastmen Prairie. Whether it is the Markey Dell clan or Boris, their strength in the Beastmen Prairie isn't strong. If we go there, they won't dare to send experts to deal with us.
Laura nodded and said, "Going to the Beastmen Prairie isn't a problem, but we can't stay there forever. If we want to go to the other countries on the continent from the Beastmen Prairie, there are only three ways. One is the Purcell Duchy, the other is the Elven Forest, and the last one is the sea route. We definitely can't return to the Purcell Duchy, so we can only go through the Elven Forest or the sea route. The Elven Forest is the territory of the elves, and they aren't very friendly to other races. This time, we definitely can't bring too few things, so I'm afraid it won't work. Taking the sea route is too dangerous. Although there are caravans from other countries that go to the Beastmen Prairie, those caravans can become pirates at any time, so it's not very safe. I'm afraid this route won't work.
What about the other one? "Quinn John looked at Laura and faintly smiled." The other one is simple. It is Zhao Hai. This time, Zhao Hai certainly can't stay in the Purcell Duchy. His identity is even more shady. I heard that the Buda clan was in trouble because of Boris. If Boris knows that he is here, then they will be in even more danger. Therefore, they will certainly leave. Zhao Hai certainly has a treasure in his hands that will allow him to leave without anyone knowing. Otherwise, when he was buying food for the Purcell clan, it wouldn't have gone unnoticed. This time, when we go find him, he will certainly be able to take us safely out of here. However, I think that the thing in his hands must be his clan's most precious thing. Even if he gives it to us, there will be conditions. "
When Laura heard what Quinn John said, she couldn't help but blush. She remembered that Zhao Hai had indeed proposed a condition to her. If she wanted to know the secrets of the Buda clan, then she would have to marry Zhao Hai. Thinking of this, Laura's face couldn't help but become even redder.
Quinn John smiled as he looked at Laura. Zhao Hai's condition to Laura was something that Quinn John was aware of. How could Quinn John not pay attention to Laura's contact with Zhao Hai? After all, Zhao Hai was the only man that Laura had taken a liking to after so many years. Therefore, every time Laura returned from Zhao Hai's place, Quinn John would find an opportunity to ask Nier about what Zhao Hai had told them. Naturally, Quinn John was aware of the condition proposed by Zhao Hai.
When Laura saw Quinn John's expression, her face became even redder. When she saw Quinn John's expression, she knew that Quinn John must know something, and the only one who could tell Quinn John was Nier.
She didn't blame Nier for telling Quinn John these things. She just felt shy. After all, she was a girl, and she was interested in Zhao Hai. Therefore, she was afraid of Quinn John's expression.
However, Laura still clenched her teeth and said, "Then let's go to Brother Hai's place. That way, we can go with Brother Hai. Moreover, we can discuss our future with Brother Hai. After all, we still need to cooperate with Brother Hai in the future."
When Quinn John heard what Laura said, his eyes lit up. He understood what Laura meant. It seems that Laura really had feelings for Zhao Hai. Her words were equivalent to agreeing to Zhao Hai's condition.
In fact, Quinn John liked Zhao Hai very much. He knew that Zhao Hai must have obtained some kind of mystical Divergent Ability. Such a person's future development would be limitless. Moreover, Laura liked him, which Quinn John was happy to see.
Laura looked at Quinn John. Quinn John smiled faintly and said, "Good. When we're done here, we'll go to Zhao Hai's place. But Young Miss, it would be best if you write a letter to Zhao Hai. Don't let Zhao Hai leave first."
Laura nodded, but she looked at the sky and said, "I'll write it tomorrow. It's already late, so we should rest early. Right, Grandpa Quinn John, we forgot something."
Quinn John was surprised. "What did you forget?"
Laura's eyes flashed with a cold light. "We forgot about Alodia and the others."
When Quinn John heard what Laura said, his face sank. "Yes, I forgot about them. But I want to keep them for now. I'll contact Zhao later. Zhao is now a Divergent Ability user. I don't know what his Divergent Ability is, but seeing how many undead he has, I think he might have a way to turn these people into undead. If we really don't need these guys, then we'll let Zhao turn them into undead." Laura nodded and said, "Yes, I forgot about them. But I want to keep them for now.
Laura didn't oppose. She hated Carlo, and she also hated Alodia and the others. Naturally, she wouldn't oppose Quinn John's words.
The two discussed a few more words before going back to rest. After all, they couldn't show too much panic. They had to maintain a normal appearance, otherwise they might be seen through.
The next morning, Zhao Hai and the others got up early. After eating breakfast, Zhao Hai led Green, Meg, and Shue straight to Casa City.
When they arrived at Casa City, Casa City had just opened its gates. Zhao Hai and the others immediately entered the city and went straight to Faith Mansion. Now that the matter was imminent, they couldn't afford not to hurry.
When Zhao Hai and the others arrived at Faith Mansion, Laura was already aware. She was just about to write a letter to Zhao Hai, but she didn't think that Zhao Hai would have already arrived.
Zhao Hai and the others were welcomed into the study. Laura looked at Shue and asked, "Brother Hai, who is this?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "One Thousand Shadows. Carlo invited him to deal with me, but he has already made a blood oath to follow me. Miss Laura doesn't need to worry."
Laura froze for a moment, but she immediately gave Shue a salute. Shue immediately returned the salute and then stood behind Zhao Hai like a shadow.
Zhao Hai turned to Laura and said, "I came to see you today because I want to know how your preparations are going. Did you explain the situation to Grand Duke Evan? What do you plan to do? "
Laura and Quinn John looked at each other, then they looked at Zhao Hai and said, "I've already explained it to Grand Duke Evan. The Grand Duke also said that he can't participate in this matter. However, we can keep the store, and he can help us look after it. I've already told the Grand Duke that we'll split the store's profits 40-60. He'll take 60 while we'll take 40. But I hope that Brother Hai won't break the deal with the Grand Duke and continue to provide him with Haven products."
Zhao Hai sighed and said, "That's good, providing products isn't a problem. It would be best if you can keep the store, I'm still worried about this matter."
When Laura heard Zhao Hai agree, she couldn't help but be happy. Then she said, "This time, we're preparing to evacuate from the Aksu Empire. But I need Brother Hai's help to send us to a safe place. What does Brother Hai think about this?"
When Zhao Hai heard Laura, he couldn't help but stare. Looking at Laura's red face, he understood why she said this. Zhao Hai couldn't help but tease Laura, he smiled faintly and said, "Sending you to a safe place isn't a problem. But what about my conditions?"
When Zhao Hai said this, Green and the others stared at Laura, waiting for her answer. Laura's face turned even redder, but she still bravely looked up at Zhao Hai and said, "I ask Brother Hai to help me."
When she said this, Green couldn't help but laugh and said, "Good, very good. It seems like we'll have to change the way we address Miss Laura as Young Madam."
Laura's face turned even redder, and so did Zhao Hai. He didn't think that Laura would agree, so he was a bit embarrassed. However, there was also a trace of excitement in his embarrassment. Even if Laura didn't agree, he would've told her his secret. But now that she agreed, it was even better.
