Chapter 663 - Business Network Layout Ideas
Chapter 663 of "Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God" introduces the scene: "Please make yourselves at home, Iâm going to step out for some fresh air," Gaven... Keep going!
"Please make yourselves at home, Iâm going to step out for some fresh air," Gaven said as he stood up. "Once youâve finished discussing, just send someone out to call for me."After finishing his words, Gaven left the reception room to those horse farm owners.
Walking out of the innâs main entrance, Gaven clearly felt the magic fluctuations behind him. It was evident that a magic barrier had been raised to prevent eavesdropping.
Gaven smiled to himself, not taking it to heart.
One should not harbor malicious intentions, but defensive precautions are necessary.
Mutual wariness is nothing out of the ordinary.
"Mr. Gaven."
As soon as Gaven stepped out of the Stone Stallion Inn, he heard someone greeting him. Turning toward the voice, he saw the stunning face of none other than Mother Gao Ser.
Her roomâs balcony faced the innâs main entrance. Standing there, she could easily watch most of the innâs activities.
At this time, her presence here was clearly not to admire the view but to wait for Gaven, knowing about the meeting inside the inn.
Gaven eyed the layout of Joy Hall, took a running start, and with three agile climbs and leaps, he was on Mother Gao Serâs third-floor balcony, without even getting out of breath, the very picture of ease.
Mother Gao Ser exclaimed, "To this day, I can hardly believe youâre a spellcaster rather than a thief or a warrior."
The feat Gaven just performed would be a breeze for warriors and thieves, but for spellcasters, it posed more of a challenge.
"Who said spellcasters must be feeble?" Gaven said with a smile, "Even without professional enhancement, if one maintains enough exercise, physical fitness can always surpass that of most ordinary people. Itâs just that many spellcasters are too lazy to try, blaming everything on professional level enhancement."
"Thatâs easy for you to say, if everyone were as disciplined as you, everyone would be a warrior," said Mother Gao Ser. She had seen Gavenâs training intensity first-hand, and even she, a bona fide thief, felt inferior.
Just by looking at his training, one could tell that this was not mere enthusiasm but a habit ingrained into his life, much like Delara. It often wasnât a matter of setting aside special time to train, but rather integrating training into his daily life.
Take his hands, for instance, never idle, always flipping Fine Gold Coins back and forthânot for play, but to maintain the dexterity of his fingers, which is highly important for both warriors and spellcasters.
Not only Gaven, but Krewen and she also have similar habits, though what she uses to train are several Invisibility Throwing Knives, invisible to common folks, while Krewen uses Fine Steel Shot, improving both sensitivity and strength.
Gaven laughed and didnât continue the argument on this topic. Instead, he expressed his gratitude, "I owe you thanks for your intelligence support this time, but in doing so, might you not offend those horse farm owners?"
Regarding the Anfield Village horse farm coalition and the unusual activity of bandits in the vicinity.
Prior to this, Gaven had already received enough hints from Mother Gao Ser to develop a new trade proposal so as not to be caught off-guard by the opposition.
In the field of intelligence gathering, especially around Anfield Village, Mother Gao Ser had connections and methods far beyond Gavenâs reach.
Mother Gao Ser returned with a sly smile, "I havenât done anything at all. On the contrary, Iâm actively promoting your horse trade with the farms. Those bandits are a scourge that hinders the prosperity of Anfield Villageâs horse market and deserve to be put to death by everyone. They canât possibly fail to understand such simple reasoning."
Colluding with bandits is, of course, not something to be brought to light; once caught, they could very well be uprooted completely.
After all, this area is within the sphere of influence of Waterdeep City, and no lord likes such illegal dealings.
Gaven, too, joined in with a smile, "What about the matter we discussed earlier? Have you thought about it?"
In these past days in Anfield Village, he had fully experienced the convenience of having intelligence support, which allowed him to strike accurately and swiftly expand his advantages.
And ninety percent of that intelligence came from Mother Gao Ser.
As his businesses grew, dealing with others would become a daily routine, and he couldnât rely on such temporary, local sources of information.
Not to mention whether itâs troublesome, its reliability is also an issue.
On the contrary, establishing his own intelligence network and nurturing specialized agents was key.
Reviewing everyone around him from top to bottom, Gaven failed to find anyone as adept and well-connected as Mother Gao Ser.
Therefore, he turned his attention to Mother Gao Ser and her escorts. á´á´á´ á´á´á´ ę°Ęá´á´ Noá´ á´FÉŞre.ná´t
They already had a network of intelligence. Expanding it through them would be much simpler.
"The terms youâve offered are indeed generous," Mother Gao Ser said, her face showing rare indecision, "I just fear our capabilities may not be as great as you imagine. My connections are mainly in the City of Brilliance. Once away from here, I have no advantage worth mentioning."
"These past few days, after careful planning, Iâve come up with a more suitable win-win solution," Gaven said with a smile, "Youâve seen the advantages of my Gnoll Construction Crew.
"Your job will be to radiate out from the City of Brilliance along these few well-known trade routes, looking for suitable properties like the Stone Stallion Inn.
"If we can buy them, weâll buy them with money.
"If theyâve been overtaken by monsters, weâll send our troops or hire mercenaries to clear them out."
