�He�ll try to get more than ten billion, since he bought the Magic Tower for ten billion.�

The Empire would happily pay ten billion gallons for it if Cale tried to sell it to them. Both Harol and Toonka were well aware of this fact.

�This is what I�m thinking.�

Cale opened up his left hand.

�Ah.�

Harol let out a gasp.

Five fingers.

�Fifty billion gallons?�

Toonka shouted with surprise. Harol quickly started to smile.

�We can negotiate now that we know the starting point.�

You always started higher than what you wanted at the beginning of a deal. Harol was about to speak in order to properly start negotiating, but Cale was a bit faster.

�Fifty billion? No, just give me five billion.�

�Excuse me?�

Harol asked with confusion.

�Did he really say five billion?�

Cale put on a gentle and pure smile. His warm gaze swept by the leaders in the room.

�Yes. Five billion.�

He had already agreed to sell the actual documents to the crown prince for quite a sum.

It would be great if the Roan Kingdom�s mages managed to eat up the Whipper Kingdom once it was weakened by the Empire.

Cale recalled the conversation he had with the crown prince last winter.

�Cale, sell it for five billion to those poor souls. It�s not like you were the one who paid the ten billion gallons to purchase the Magic Tower in the first place.�

�I planned on selling it to them for ten billion, but I will do as you command, your highness.�

�Good. Wouldn�t it be great if you could be their benefactor? That�s what you�re really aiming for, isn�t it?� JrNovels.com
