Chapter 221: My Brother Matthew
Translator: Lonelytree
Bobo suggested calling it ” Matthew’s Chamber of Commerce “, but Matthew waved his hand to indicate that it was too high-profile. Besides, he was a Necromancer. What if his reputation became bad and affected the business of the Chamber of Commerce in the future?
In the end, it was the approachable name of the Oak Chamber of Commerce that won the unanimous approval of the three founding shareholders.
After the registration was completed.
There were 9000 gold coins in the initial account of the Oak Chamber of Commerce, as well as a small portion of magic crystals that had not been sold yet.
There were three shareholders: Matthew, Bobo, and Rheagar.
During the division of the shareholders’ rights and interests, Rheagar took the initiative to express that he had not helped much along the way. The magic crystal was discovered thanks to Bobo’s bombs, and the Dragon Nurturing Field was broken through by Matthew. He had no chance to make any contributions.
Therefore, he only asked for 10% of the shares.
Following that, Bobo also stated that she had not contributed much to the attack on the Dragon Nurturing Ground and only intended to get 30% of the shares.
But Matthew didn’t agree with them.
He knew that the reason why Bobo hadn’t been able to do much during the attack on the Dragon Nurturing Ground was mainly because he had been dragged down by Rheagar.
He felt that 60% was too much for him.
However, Bobo’s attitude was firm.
She felt that 40% was too much for her.
Both sides felt that they could not take so much, so they started a tug-of-war.
Neither of them could convince the other.
In the end.
It was the experienced Rheagar who reminded them,
“Actually, if you’re not afraid of the trouble of doing the accounts, you can also split it 3-5:5-5.”
Matthew’s eyes lit up.
He and Bobo looked at Rheagar in shock.
‘Our lord seems to be quite useful.’
Matthew thought.
In the end, the rights and interests of the three initial shareholders were settled.
Two days later.
Matthew chose a shop in the Trade Area that was recommended by Yu Lian and rented it. Fortunately, the influx of refugees from the South Coast had only
The original owner of the shop was a goblin. He looked amiable and easy to talk to.
After Matthew signed a three-year contract with him.
This shop, with a small courtyard, became the first foothold of the Oak Chamber of Commerce in Condor City.
Now that they had a place to stay, the next step was to clean the house, buy furniture, and recruit manpower.
Lumiere was the most active in this regard.
Lumiere had just received more than 4,000 gold coins from Matthew a few days ago, and he was feeling very proud.
While Matthew and Bobo were looking around for shops, Lumiere was also looking through the rental market in Condor City.
Matthew wondered if the guy was finding a love nest for himself and his harem.
After asking, he found out that Lumiere wanted to find a place for the elderly and families in the tribe who had difficulty walking to recuperate.
He told Matthew that he hoped all the elders in the tribe would live in such a house.
After a few days of chatting, Matthew also learned that Lumiere intended to expand his tribe into Condor City.
He wanted to experience the customs of the foreigners there and learn the knowledge and achievements of the outside world.
Matthew encouraged him, but he also reminded Lumiere to be careful not to be deceived, especially to be careful of Yu Lian and those who mingled in the underworld.
Lumiére’s strength was so great that few people could hurt him.
Considering that Blinken was trapped in the tomb at the bottom of the sea, Yu Lian was a lot more cunning than Lumiere. Therefore, Matthew added more advice.
Moreover, Lumiere had previously said many times that he could work for the Oak Chamber of Commerce even if Matthew didn’t pay him.
In the end, Matthew gave Lumiere the title of ” Security Advisor ” of the Chamber of Commerce.
He also said that if Lumiere really wanted to help, he could come to the shop at any time.
On the other hand, if he encountered any difficulties, he could also use the Chamber of Commerce to convey information to Matthew.
No matter what, Lumiere staying in Condor City was good news for the Oak Chamber of Commerce. If anything happened in the future, everyone could look out for each other.
As for the first president of the Oak Chamber of Commerce, Matthew didn’t take the position himself. Instead, he directly appointed Lara the Shadow Oath Breaker.
Lara, who had just received the news, was very surprised.
She asked Matthew directly why he trusted her so much.
Matthew’s answer was also very frank.
” I hope that my President is someone who will never betray me. The Underdark can no longer accept you, and the Order of Calamity will put a bounty on your head. Your race and skin colour meant that you would never assimilate on the surface. If you dare to betray me, I’m afraid you’ll have to face
Galan forever.”
Lara was a little emotional and touched after hearing it.
She, indeed, had nowhere to go. Those who broke their oaths would naturally be despised by all gods or organizations.
This was because no one could guarantee that she would betray them again. Furthermore, her unique appearance also meant that most people would subconsciously feel uncomfortable around her.
Matthew’s approach made sense.
However, to be honest, Matthew made this choice because Matthew had developed a trace of trust in her.
Lara didn’t say much. She just told Matthew that she would do a good job.
On the morning of the second day after the appointment.
Matthew saw Lara holding a book that she had found on a street stall and reading it with difficulty.
Matthew glanced at it.
