Meeting up with Lex (Part 1)
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Your highness, you are giving me too much, I..." Viscount Gugger felt afraid all of a sudden. Saleen was simply being too generous with him. "What will the nobles serving me think? Will they hold a grudge against me?"
"What is there to be afraid of? Aren't there four great families who were doing business on behalf of the royal family in Qin? From here on out, you will become the first noble who will do business for me. All trades happening in Ceylon City will be put under your charge. No one will take even a single coin from you other than me."
Viscount Gugger's head was spinning at that point. What Saleen proposed was equal to waiving all taxes he would have to pay, by making him a royal merchant.
