Lady of the Lord From the East

Chapter 61

Zachary, the manager of the essential oil shop, is very proud of the spring breeze recently, and he walks with the wind.

The store he was in charge of was originally an inconspicuous grain store in the capital. The store address was located in the mid-city area of ​​the capital. Ordinary civilians were living near the street. The monthly business was barely enough. For a time, Zachary thought that the store would not be able to open.

However, since the new Earl ordered to change the grain store into an essential oil store, the re-opened store after the refurbishment has become a popular store in the entire royal capital. The customers in the store range from the royal family to the nobles to officials and merchants. Like the frenzied buying of their goods without money, often the essential oils will be sold out within a few days of arrival.

Of course, this kind of hot scene lasted for some time. After the supply of essential oils has stabilized and the price has been greatly increased, although there are still many customers, it is finally no longer the kind of grand occasion that requires a lot of pomp to buy things.

But this does not mean that the business of the essential oil store has deteriorated. On the contrary, the stable source of customers is not crowded because the store now sells concentrated essential oils, which can be used for a long time in a large bottle, saving customers the time to travel back and forth. , but the price of concentrated essential oils is higher, and a bottle is worth hundreds of gold coins, although the number of daily sales is relatively reduced, the income is higher than before.

From the first time he received thousands of gold coins, he almost fainted without excitement, and now he has passed tens of thousands of gold coins every day without changing his face. Zachary does not remember what he experienced.

"According to your request, sir, all the gold coins have been deposited in the bank. This is the ledger and this month's certificate of deposit."

Although banks in this period dealt with bills of exchange and loan sharks, large deposits would still carry a certain interest. By relying on certificates of deposit, Felix could go directly to the bank to exchange for a large amount of gold coins.

Moreover, when these certificates of deposit are deposited, it is stated that only Count Felix Williams and the person with his seal can withdraw the money. If others do not have relevant certificates, even if they go to the bank with the certificate of deposit, they will not be able to get a copper coin. Security can be said to be very high.

But even so, after teaching the certificate of deposit, Zachary breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

There is no other reason. Although I know that I can't withdraw money with the deposit certificate alone, the amount on it seems to be disturbing.

That is a gold coin deposit certificate of hundreds of thousands of dollars. It is the net income of the essential oil store for a month. If it is stolen and robbed, even if the gold coins in it cannot be retrieved, it will cost a lot of money just to go to the bank to re-apply. He can't afford to sell it.

And it's not that he was delusional about being murdered, but Zachary is sure that the essential oil store has not been peaceful recently.

Since the essential oil business started, the shops on both sides of the essential oil shop have been bought by Felix, but he has no plans to expand the essential oil shop or do another business. Instead, he sends soldiers to guard and ensure the safety of the essential oil shop.

At first, when essential oils were delivered to the capital, they would be sold out almost overnight. At that time, there was no need for guards at all, and the store was very safe. However, when high-concentration essential oils appeared and the store had stocks, safety issues had to be taken seriously.
