Chapter 207: Speculator

Sharp von Owen is a speculator, and if he can, he would prefer others to call it the business sense of a businessman.

In fact, it is true. He was born in a slum in El Roy. At least a few decades ago, there was still a place on the outskirts of the city. There was a place for poor people without enough food and clothing, and a large number of abandoned buildings. The poor provided shelter from the wind and rain. Sharp still clearly remembered the first money he made for delivering newspapers. He was only paid 10 baluns a month from the beginning, which was still the highest among all newsboys. He used this money for a low price. Buying goods at a high price and sending them to the city for sale, has since begun his legendary life.

At that time, others called him the witty Sharp, because he was good at speaking, and with just one mouth, he won the favor of many noble merchants. He always found business opportunities in the first time by relying on the information obtained from the upper class.

Now Sharp runs a chain store selling clothing and has branches in several prosperous cities in the kingdom. This is a good deal, because those ladies and ladies always spare no effort to spend their wealth on their clothes, clothes are their pride, and he only needs to give these clothes that were originally worth no more than a barron gold coin. Noble women can please them and the husbands behind them or their families.

Sharp believes that this is a golden age everywhere, and anyone can easily earn a fortune as long as they seize the opportunity.

Sharp, who already has amazing wealth, is naturally not satisfied with this. The status of a businessman makes him always inferior when he is in social circles. Even if he talks with some poor little nobles, he needs to look at the face of the other person. The reason is not because of how much power the poor aristocrats have, but the identity of the aristocracy itself represents a class. Even if they accumulate astonishing wealth before reaching this class, the identity of a businessman is destined to be unable to cross the thunder pond half a step.

Years of social experience tells Sharp that if he accidentally offends a nobleman, then the nobleman only needs to promote a few words in his social circle, and the relationship network he has operated for many years will be greatly impacted. Now is the time when the relationship between merchants and nobles is most sensitive. The merchants cut their heads and want to squeeze into the circle of the nobles, and most of the nobles look down on the profit-seeking merchants.

He himself is one of these businessmen, and he finally found such an opportunity more than half a month ago.

Accidentally learned from a friend that someone was selling Harvey Adrian’s unpublished novel. At first he thought it was just a scam or something, until he heard that Harvey was hiring a painter. The mentality of giving it a try. Sharp bet the right treasure and really bought the unpublished novel "Frozen" written by Harvey Adrian from a painter.

It is a fairy tale. He has passed the age of reading fairy tales. Although it is not clear why Harvey Adrian wrote a fairy tale, it is not important. The important thing is that the person who wrote the novel is that Harvey Adrian, a big man who can cause an earthquake in the social world of El Roy by stomping his feet.

He contacted the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce with great excitement. It would take a long time to wait for a response because there was no appointment in advance. As a result, William, the vice president of the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce, called him personally the next day, and it was because of the novel. The two reached a consensus on the matter.

Although he spent a lot of money to buy these novels, if he could return it to Sharp, he would not feel distressed at all. It would be worth the price to climb the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce alone, but he dreamed of wanting to be in the department store currently operated by the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce A clothing branch is opened in the company.

The Cromwell Chamber of Commerce's qualifications in Elroy are shorter than that of his clothing chain. Originally, it relied on novel products to win the favor of the new generation of young aristocrats. After standing firm, it squeezed into the aristocracy with the title of nobleman. Class, the most unexpected thing is that Harvey Adrian, who was originally the object of political union marriage, suddenly rose to the top of Norton’s social circle with a sudden and unbelievable momentum.

The city of Elroy has given the green light to the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce, and social circles are also proud of buying Cromwell Chamber of Commerce products, all because of the knock-on effect of a person's name.

Sharp affirmed that he only needs to be a part of this chain, and his social status will usher in a qualitative change.

In the end, Sharp returned six "Frozen" novels and obeyed William's instructions to keep one. The clothing store he opened successfully entered the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce department store. At the same time, relying on social connections, he took the "Frozen" novel to the printing factory for private printing and gave it to some book sellers to sell it at a very low price. A businessman naturally knows what Harvey wants to do. It is similar to the marketing method of goods, increasing the reputation of the goods, and it is very likely that it is not only as simple as the "Frozen" novel.

The dignitaries in the social world can easily find out the true picture of this incident, and there is no need to worry about what will happen.
