Headhunting?

Chapter 46 Headhunting?

"I shouldn't let you drink that, Selvi."

"Who would have thought your alcohol tolerance was very low."

"Nine, I'm fine, I'm not drunk, hick!" "Nine, look! Is that a monster? Fairy!" I piggyback Selvi back to the orphanage. Along the way I heard Selvi who spoke incoherently.

"It's too early to get drunk. Well, even though it's my fault for letting you drink it."

"Next time I will not give you drinks with high alcohol content."

Next time I will only give drinks with low alcohol content, maybe she will like Champagne, but I have to make it a point not to drink excessively. Non-alcoholic wine or beer can also be another alternative if she is still drunk easily after drinking Champagne.

"Mr. Nine, welcome. Oh, you took Selvi home, it seems like she's in a bad condition." I put her down, but she keeps hugging me.

"Is she drunk? Isn't it too early to drink, Selvi?"

"Aunt Mel, do you have twins? She is very similar to you, she even wears the same clothes as you."

"I'm sorry, Aunt Mel, this is my fault. I'm trying a new product that I will sell, and I let Selvi taste it. I never thought he would get drunk after drinking a little."

"Huh, she still does it. Depa and the others often carry her home like this, she can't drink alcoholic drinks. She will be like this even if only a cup of beer. I told her not to drink, but she still does. So I just forbade her to drink alone."

"Sorry aunt Mel, next time I'll just give her fruit juice."

"No problem, Mr. Nine, I don't forbid her to drink as long as there is someone to look after her. Thank you for taking her home, I will take care of her. I will tell her later how she acts shamefully like this in front of you, kekeke."

"Thank you, aunt Mel, then I'll go home first. I still have some business to do."

"Why don't you come in for a moment, Mr. Nine, I'll make you a meal. The children must be happy to have lunch with you."

"I'll join you next time, Aunt Mel, I still have to go to the guild today."

"All right, be careful on your way, Mr Nine." She waved her hand at me.

I walked back to Spider Crypt to retrieve the equipment I had left behind earlier. Irene has cleaned all the equipment, Argus and the others are still asking me to make them one more glass of absinthe, but I refused.

"Do what I ask well, and I will give it to you later, as much as you want."

I returned to Le Réseau to get wine and champagne.

"Boss Nine, where is Selvi? Why is she not coming back with you?" Depa asked me when I got there.

Like everyone else, I made Depa a manager at Le Réseau. Selvi is no longer a manager here because she is very busy with reports from other managers, you could say she is like a director now.

"I took her home, I didn't expect her to have a low alcohol tolerance."

"Is she drunk? Isn't this still too early?"

"Yeah, I gave Argus and the others new liquors for them to try. Selvi said that she wanted to try it, so I gave a little from my glass. I never thought she would get drunk with a little drink like that"

"Yeah, that's what Selvi is like. I'm sure the drinks you give must be different from the drinks here, Selvi can even get drunk with just one cup of beer. Surely your drink is stronger than beer."

"I'll just give her a non-alcoholic drink or juice later."

"That's why we often go to the Spider Crypt secretly because it would be very troublesome if Selvi came with us. We have to go home early, hahaha."

After that, I prepared all the wine and champagne that I would bring to the guild, all of which had 6 bottles. Every bottle is in the box, I deliberately look for the box to make it look more fancy.

I waited for about an hour before going to the union because when I arrived at Le Reseau, the union was having a lunch break. I decided to wait here rather than there because there was no one there.

"Mr. Nine, sorry your notice can't be published today because there isn't an empty place yet. One message will be released in two days."

"It's alright, Adelia, I'm not in a hurry. The place also hasn't been renovated yet."

"I came here today because I wanted to meet with Mr. Wine Expert who had previously helped me appraise my wine. Is he here today."

"Ah! Too bad he is not here today, Mr. Nine, he is currently in Mirstone, a small town two days from here."

"Based on his statement, he will arrive here the day after tomorrow."

"Too bad. Alright, can you tell him later that I want to meet him, I need help from him."

"Do you want him to appraise your wine again, Mr. Nine?"

"Yeah, I need his help selecting the bartender later. If he is willing, I want him to get to know this wine first so that he can judge properly later."

"Looks like you have another unique product, Mr. Nine. Maybe I can taste it later? " Adelia smiled.

"Of course, I'll give it to you later, Adelia."

"I'm just kidding, Mr. Nine, hehehe."

"I'll still give you a few bottles later, even if you're just kidding."

"There's no need for that, I feel bad. Look at their jealous gaze, Mr. Nine." Adelia whispered to me.

"When you gave me perfume last time, every day I hear them talking about me here. I don't even dare to use the perfume you gave me anymore."

"Don't mind what other people say, just do as you wish. If you don't like working here anymore, you can work with me. I need someone like you to run all my business in this town."

"Your assessment about me is too high, Mr. Nine, I'm not sure I can take care of your business. You are one of the big merchants now, your business is too big for me."

"Don't be modest, Adelia, I know you can do better than that. I never misjudge people, I'm sure you have that ability. If I make you handle my business in this town, I can calmly expand my business in another town."

"I..."

"So what do you think? Don't rush to reject it, I'll wait for you. Think carefully, I need you, Adelia."

"Alright, I'll think about it, Mr. Nine." She smiled.
