I Became the Progenitor Vampire-Chapter 145 - 146 The Heir to the King of Routines

Chapter 145: Chapter 146 The Heir to the King of Routines

“Lord Lide, about the points you mentioned to me last time, perhaps we could use them within the Mysterious Store.”

On the third floor of the Crimson Mage Tower, Lide was flipping through a Magic Book, with Isa meditating beside him.

Wearing a blue mage’s robe, Vena stood in front of a rectangular desk made of Blue Heart Maple, with a radiant smile on her face.

It was already the second day since Vena had reached a partnership with the five major trading guilds within Green City.

Upon hearing this, Lide closed the parchment cover of “Magic Secrets” with great interest, his eyes burning as he looked at Vena.

“What do you mean? Do you have any ideas?”

...

This time, after the negotiation between the Crimson Mage Tower and other trading guilds was successful, he was very pleased with his little maid.

Vena replied with a relaxed smile, “Lord Lide, the Mysterious Store has already attracted a lot of adventurers’ attention in these few days.

And during this period, many people came with Magic Materials hoping to exchange them for Magic Scrolls, but we rejected the trades due to unbalanced prices…”

Lide nodded and placed the grey-covered book on the desk, indicating for the girl to continue.

“The Mysterious Store should be positioned as a comprehensive large store, one that can even stand shoulder to shoulder with the major trading guilds.

Therefore, selling only Magic Scrolls would undoubtedly be a waste of resources. You taught me before that resources are scarce, and every bit of it should be utilized better.

Now the Mysterious Store has the conditions. Magic Scrolls can attract more people, and we can’t waste these resources.”

Confidence glimmered in Vena’s eyes.

“We have a large number of Magic Scrolls, and in Green City we are invincible.

Affordable Magic Scrolls can bring us a stable flow of customers, and all we need is to make a little use of them to gain greater profits.”

“Such as?” Lide’s interest was piqued by this glowing girl, and he wanted to hear how much Vena’s thinking had changed under his long-time guidance.

“First, we can open a special column for purchasing Magic Materials, and we can issue the Magic Materials we need in the form of tasks…”

“Second, pair the sale inside the store with high-value weapons or armor…”

“Thirdly, we could sell…”

“…”

Vena explained her complete business model for half a day without pause, and many of her novel ideas deeply impressed Lide.

“But how can you ensure that these mercenaries will continuously come to the Crimson Mage Tower to purchase goods?

And that they would sell the Magic Items from their hunts to us?”

After the girl finished speaking, Lide asked the most crucial question.

Although the Magic Scrolls of the Crimson Mage Tower were economical, Green City was not without competition; they were not the only choice.

“Of course, it’s the points you mentioned!” Vena’s eyes sparkled, as if stars were twinkling within.

“Points?” Lide pretended to be unaware.

“Of course, we can set up a system where trading a certain amount of Gold Puck within the store can earn corresponding points, and these points can carry many privileges.

For example, we could design two powerful, slightly cheaper items that are not sold to the public and are exclusive to our points customers.

For instance, offering a discount on limited quantities of Magic Scrolls within the Mysterious Store after reaching a certain number of points.

Perhaps, certain precious items like Magic Blood could be exchanged for a specific amount of points.

For example, we could open a limited number of Magic Apprentice positions, allowing those who accumulate enough points to send their children to the Mage Tower to learn magic.

For instance, after accumulating a certain number of points, they could hire mages within the Mage Tower to do some non-dangerous work.

Such as providing Enchantment services for Magic Equipment to customers with a certain amount of points…

For example…”

Vena’s litany of ideas left Lide dumbfounded.

At this moment, he felt that perhaps he should cede the title of ‘king of schemes’.

Her business acumen was simply incredible, and the girl had thought of many aspects he hadn’t, such as hiring mages of the Crimson Mage Tower and Equipment Enchantment, among others.

These plans were simply brilliant.

Moreover, each had very strong feasibility.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that as long as Vena implemented these plans step by step, the Mysterious Store would quickly become Green City’s most popular Magic Store, bar none.

“Vena, arrange these matters yourself, go ahead and do it, I believe in you.”

Lide smiled satisfactorily. Since Vena had her own ideas, it was time to delegate authority.

After receiving Lide’s affirmation, Vena’s face shone with a deep smile. The girl had been managing the Crimson Mage Tower for some time and slowly developed an air of competence.

And paired with that exquisite face, she seemed even more outstanding and captivating.

“Yes, Lord Lide, Vena won’t disappoint you.”

After Vena left the study, Little Isa, who was meditating, suddenly opened her eyes sneakily and whispered softly.

“Teacher, Miss Vena is really impressive,”

Lide flashed a smile and pinched the little girl’s cheek.

“You know quite a lot,”

Isa stuck out her tongue and closed her eyes once again to enter a state of meditation.

Lide, watching that delicate and exquisite beautiful face, inexplicably felt a sense of achievement.

No wonder the nurturing genre is so popular.

It’s irresistible for anyone.

Thinking thus, he glanced again at the empty doorway of the study and stroked his chin.

Seems like, raising a business queen also feels quite nice.

Alas, the life of the Blood Clan Ancestor is always so dull and boring…

During this period, with the expansion campaign of the Crimson Mage Tower, a large surrounding area had already become the domain of the Crimson Mage Tower.

To better manage the increasingly large Magic Factory and Mysterious Store, Vena found a three-story building near the Mage Tower to serve as their office.

“Lady Vena…”

“Vena…”

Upon reaching the third floor, the ten or so young Mage Apprentices who were working hastily stood up and greeted the calm-faced Vena.

“Kohen, Kelly, come with me.”

The two named followed the elegantly poised Vena into her office, the graceful figure of the girl under her blue mage robe moving with an indescribable charm.

Behind her, Kelly’s eyes showed a thick envy, thinking only a girl like Miss Vena would be favored by Lord Lide.

Vena’s office was a very simple and clean room, with nothing more than a desk and a chair next to the window.

The three sat down, and the girl’s gemstone-like blue eyes calmly gazed at the two.

“How well did you handle the task I gave you last time?”

Only in front of Lide was Vena that soft and cute little maid; in front of others at the Crimson Mage Tower, Vena was always the composed manager.

Especially since Lide was not around recently, managing the Crimson Mage Tower made Vena even more intimidating to these Mage Apprentices than Lide himself.

At least Lord Lide seldom got angry with them.

“Vena, I’ve already made the arrangements with the Dwarf Craftsmen, but they insist on an additional Gold Puck to prioritize our weapon orders,”

Kohen quickly replied.

A few months ago, their status seemed more or less equal; he, Vena, and Carlo were the three most talented Mage Apprentices of the Crimson Mage Tower.

But in this half year, the Crimson Mage Tower had shown a completely different situation.

Carlo, by virtue of being the first to boldly swear a Soul Contract to Lord Lide, rose rapidly and now had even become the first manager of the Magic Factory.

And Vena, Lord Lide’s maid, was extraordinary, now in charge of the entire operation of the Crimson Mage Tower in his absence.

Only he, who could have kept up, fell behind everyone after one choice.

So, eager to keep up with Carlo’s pace, Kohen had been working hard, and this time, Vena charged him with negotiating with the stubborn Dwarf weapon shop was a great opportunity, yet those obstinate Dwarfs gave him quite a headache.

“One Gold Puck then one Gold Puck, let’s settle it that way. We needn’t fuss over these minor benefits now.

Lord Lide has already agreed to my ideas and appointed me to take full charge of the Mysterious Store.

So, the points system I mentioned to you last time needs to be brought back on the agenda now.

Carlo, you continue to handle the matter with the Dwarf weapons, ensuring that the Dwarfs prioritize collaboration with the Crimson Mage Tower.

Kelly, you are responsible for the points cards. Issue two versions of each card and ensure that every points card has a unique number. In the future, points will be the most crucial part of the Mysterious Store, and we must ensure there are no errors.”

Vena’s delicate face was serious, and her eyes brooked no doubt.

The Mysterious Store was entrusted to her by Lord Lide, and she was determined to manage it well; she did not want to see disappointment in Lord Lide’s eyes.

“Yes, Miss Vena.”

“Yes, Lady Vena.”

After the two left, Vena stood up and approached the window, which provided a view of the third-floor study window of the Crimson Mage Tower.

Now that there were no outsiders, the girl’s eyes brimmed with deep affection, gazing unflinchingly at the Crimson Mage Tower.

Lide occasionally mentioned how the points functioned, not in detail but enough to inspire her greatly.

She keenly sensed that this system might be the key to the Crimson Mage Tower’s rapid development in the future,

and she had the confidence to lead the Mysterious Store to become the top establishment in Green City.

In fact, just having a vast supply of Magic Scrolls for sale made the Mysterious Store invincible, but Vena was not content to stop there; collaboration with the major associations was born from this ambition.

In the girl’s heart, Lide was her only one; she wanted to do more for him.
