It was dark by the time Tesla and Giuliano reached their destination. Since he completed the escort mission safely it was time to accomplish the real reason he took the request. Over the course of them traveling together Tesla had learned the he was small time merchant that specialized in cosmetics and the like. Which was perfect for Tesla. Cosmetics were usually expensive for normal person but Giuliano sold them made and sold them at a price that ordinary people could afford.
"Giuliano how often do you bathe?" Tesla asks
"What's with weird question?" Giuliano questioned. He looked kinda creeped out.
"It's nothing weird I promise. I just have a new product that you might be interested in"
"A new product? Something to do with bathing I presume?"
"Yes."
Tesla pulls out a pink rectangular object.
"This is called soap. You use it to clean yourself while washing. Plus it will leave you smelling good." Tesla explains.
The man takes the object from Tesla's hand. It was light looked like pink brick. He then gives it a whiff.
"Oh what a sweet, fresh scent!" He says.
"Right? I'll let you have this one as a sample. Try it out first if you like it I'll sell you the formula to make it yourself. However it will come with conditions."
"What are the conditions?"
"No point in telling you now. Only after you have tried the product first."
"I see then I will try this first. Hey do you have a place to stay?"
"I haven't checked into an Inn yet"
"Why don't you stay at my place then?"
"Sure why not?"
"Glad to hear it. I'm sure my wife and daughter won't mind."

The Next Day
"So I have tried your 'soap' product and I must say it is very good. My wife and daughter loved it as well. So with that being said I'd like to take you up on your offer."
"Glad to hear it. Then the conditions I mentioned before I will now tell you. 1) Your company is the only one allowed to sell this product. 2) The formula must be kept secret. 3) As the inventor of this product 10% of all profits made will go to me every month. 4) In addition my identity also must be kept secret. 5) I may come to you in the future for a favor. Do you accept these conditions?"
"You kid have got yourself a deal." Giuliano says shaking his hand.
"Oh and one last thing, if you decide to screw me over..Well let's hope it doesn't come to that."
A chill went down Giuliano's spine.
"Y-Yes you don't have to worry" he says.
"Well then here is the formula and 10 sample soaps to sell for a limited time. I look forward to being your partner."

1 Day later
"Hey that's the kid and we're supposed to capture"
"Commence operation"
--After Giuliano gave him proof of completion Tesla was on his way back to Florenci City.
He didn't bring his horse as Giuliano's wagon had plenty of room. So he
and Blackstar were traveling back to the city on foot.They were just outside the city limits and up ahead, were three men one on a horse, blocking the road.
