“Because your father bought a large number of mana net crystals to sell in the country of steel without understanding the mechanism of the mana net, causing the reputation of the silver-patterned chamber of commerce to be completely destroyed. So, in order to save the Chamber of Commerce that was on the verge of bankruptcy, you decided to stand out and become an idol, right?”

Jose recounted the reason why Dorothy had come to Nolan. After hearing it, Dorothy immediately shook her head.

“I came to Nolan for the prize of the Nolan Open Champions.h.i.+p, which is the leaf of the world tree. I didn’t come here to become… an ‘idol’.”

Dorothy had been communicating with Jose for more than ten minutes. She found that Jose always said some words that she could not understand.

“It’s a pity that you didn’t win the champions.h.i.+p in the end. The second prize doesn’t have the leaf of the world tree.”

Joshua’s words. .h.i.t the hardest part of Dorothy’s heart, causing her to instantly fall into a state of silence.

“Alright, I’ll a.s.sume that you’ve obtained the leaves of the world tree. What do you plan to do?”

Joshua planned to establish a new operation organization on the ‘ruins’of Dorothy’s Chamber of Commerce, so it was necessary to train the managers before that.

“Of course, it’s to bring it back to Osenberg to let the customers who bought the mana net crystals know that the silver-patterned chamber of Commerce didn’t lie to them.”

Dorothy became very serious when she mentioned this topic, but no matter how serious she was, in Josh’s eyes, Dorothy’s plan was full of loopholes.

“Bring it back to Osenberg? Do you plan to sell the leaves of the world tree in Osenberg?”Josh asked.

“That… might be the case.”Dorothy’s tone was filled with uncertainty.

“You probably didn’t expect it either. No matter how many leaves there are on the tender branches of the World Tree, it won’t be able to meet the demand of Osenberg. At most, it will be treated as a luxury item. Moreover, the leaves of the world tree are not cheap in Nolan.”

Joshua did not sell the leaves of the world tree in Nolan. He only gave the leaves to some people as a gift.

Even though the world tree of the Tyreen family had grown up, the yield of the leaves was still very low. Therefore, Joshua did not plan to sell them as a commodity for the time being.

“So, if you really want to save the reputation of your chamber of Commerce, you should choose to rent the ‘network’instead of ‘selling’it.”

Joshua did not think that a chamber of Commerce with a broken reputation would have enough money to buy the leaves of the world tree and then go to Orson Castle to resell them.

“Rent…”

When Jose mentioned this word, Dorothy’s wine-red pupils contracted slightly, as if she had received some inspiration.

“This, no… maybe it really can. It’s just a matter of execution.”

The girl born into a merchant family instantly began to calculate the possibility of renting the magic net.

The Magic Net was a new thing to this world. Even the people of Nolan were still in a state of ignorance about the magic net, not to mention the few outsiders who had come into contact with the magic net.

Its value, the way it worked, and what it could be used for. All of these were ‘blank’in this world.

“I can teach you how to run your chamber of Commerce by ‘renting’the magic net.”Jose clapped his hands, letting Dorothy come back to her senses from her muttering.

Jose picked up the green crystal on the table, and Dorothy’s gaze turned to the crystal that was emitting a large amount of life force.

“This is the crystal of the world tree. You can understand it as the effect of expanding from this table to the entire hotel’s World Tree Leaf,”said Joshua.

“And the price for me owning it is to sell the silver-patterned chamber of Commerce to you?”Dorothy understood what Joshua meant.

“That’s right, and I don’t own it. I’m only lending it to you temporarily. I’ll pay for the acquisition of the silver-patterned chamber of Commerce’s funds separately. After this, you’ll still be the manager of the Chamber of Commerce, but you’ll help me do things. How about this deal?”

Dorothy quietly listened to the conditions that Jose officially proposed. She didn’t think that Jose’s conditions were too harsh. On the contrary… They were too generous.

She clearly understood the current value of the silver-patterned chamber of Commerce, and the value of the World Tree Crystal in Jose’s hands was much higher than that of a chamber of Commerce that was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Dorothy no longer had the right to choose.

She had angered the castellan of Orson Castle, Count Cruz. If she wanted the silver-patterned chamber of Commerce to continue operating in Orson Castle, it was not something that could be easily solved just by having money.

“What… Can I do for you?”Dorothy asked Jose after a moment of hesitation.

When she asked this question, Dorothy carefully glanced at the female spell caster standing beside Jose.

A month ago, when Dorothy went to Fort Orson to seek help from other chambers of commerce, the managers of those chambers of commerce did make a lot of excessive requests, most of which were because they were very interested in her ‘commodity’.

Fortunately, the man in front of her was not interested in Dorothy herself.

“It’s very simple. Just sit there and collect the money,”said Joshua.

“Sit… There and collect the money?”

“This crystal can provide a ‘network’for the clients of the magic net within a certain area. I will burn a program inside the crystal, or rather, a spell for identification, so that only specific users of the magic net can use it, and the time is limited.”

Jose’s explanation sounded a little difficult to understand to outsiders, but Dorothy connected it with the concept of ‘lease’that Jose had mentioned before, and she quickly understood what Jose wanted to do.

“You mean… to sell the time connected to the Internet as a commodity?”Dorothy paused for a moment before continuing, “A chamber of Commerce that sells the time connected to the internet… can it still be considered a business guild?”

“I don’t think so. You can call it the magic net tavern, or more directly call it the internet cafe,”said Joshua.

“A tavern that can use the magic net, an internet cafe…”

She imagined the future of the internet cafe in Orson Castle. Now that Nolan’s portal was opened, a large number of people from Orson Castle would definitely come to Nolan to ‘tour’.

Dorothy swore that after these tourists came into contact with the magic net, they would definitely be fascinated by this brand-new virtual world!

But after that? When the portal was closed, the tourists had no choice but to leave Nolan and return to Orson Castle.

Dorothy had experienced the pain of losing the internet. Under such circ.u.mstances, there would definitely be people who were willing to spend a silver coin or even an hour or two of ‘Internet time’on Bismarck.

Dorothy had already seen the scene of a pile of gold coins rolling in front of her eyes. Also… the day when the silver-patterned chamber of Commerce would rise again, although in a different way.

“I can also provide wine and food, and even set up a restaurant.”

If she had a pen and paper, Dorothy might have written in a notebook how to reform her own chamber of Commerce.

“Well, Miss Dorothy… we still have a lot of things to do. Come with me. You have enough time to think about it in the car,”said Jose.

The operation of the steel country’s Chamber of Commerce and Nolan were two sets of laws. However, regardless of which set of laws, Dorothy, the successor of the Chamber of Commerce, had the right to sell the Chamber of Commerce.

”…”

Dorothy could not know the authenticity of Jose’s conditions, but Dorothy was not willing to give up this opportunity to let their Chamber of Commerce Rise.
