Chapter 10 Lionheart Chamber of Commerce
Chris Sharp....... Why is he looking for me?
The moment Sulman saw the man, a scene emerged in his mind. It was the scene when Chris announced to all the members of the caravan that he had obtained the transfer order from the headquarters before he set off. He would be promoted to senior director after this trip was over.
This position could be regarded as entering the middle level of the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce. Unfortunately, he had announced it too early. Judging from the losses they suffered from this trip, as the leader of the caravan, Chris had an unavoidable responsibility. Once he returned to the Chamber of Commerce afterward and was bound to be held accountable... His promotion was probably gone forever.
"Mr. Sulman, thank you very much for saving us."
As a director-level member of the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce, Chris naturally knew about 'transcenders', even if he couldn't see the specific process of the battle, he could guess that Sulman was a 'transcender'.
After all, ordinary people wouldn't have the ability to defeat the entire White Wolf Group alone.
After all, this was the murderous 'silver wolf' Hawthorne...
Because of this, Chris’s tone was very respectful, even if the other party was once his 'subordinate' and is currently an ordinary member of the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce, Chris did not dare to put on airs, but was cautious——
"Do you have any plans for the following journey?" Chris glanced at the noisy gathering place behind him, and involuntarily, he reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Continue to follow the caravan until the next civilized city." Sulman noticed his gaze and looked at it as well. When he saw the noisy gathering spot, he immediately realized the real reason for the other's nervousness.
"Great!"
Hearing this reply, Chris said excitedly, "Since you are willing to stay, why not think about it and re-sign with our Lionheart Chamber of Commerce and join us?"
After speaking, Chris hurriedly added—
"Of course, but not as an ordinary member."
"I can assure you that at this point, as long as you are willing to join the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce, you will immediately be able to obtain a director-level position and be solely responsible for trade matters in a region.
Of course, if you make enough contributions, you can also be promoted to senior director very quickly..."
Sulman raised his hand, interrupted the other party's explanation like an MLM salesman, and said with a smile, "You seem to be in trouble, Mr. Chris. It seems that the aftereffects of this accident are not over yet."
Chris’s tone changed, and his face was distressed, "Yes...Yes, other passengers are demanding compensation. According to the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce's trade rules, part of the travel expenses will be refunded. Of course, this is not the most important thing."
The implication was that the most important thing was not the refund, but Chris, as the supervisor, now had a bad record, which would seriously affect his promotion.
In order to reduce the influence, Chris intended to recruit a 'transcender' into his organization? Sulman could see through the other person's thoughts. This was a good solution. If he succeeded, not only would Chris be fine, but he would even keep his promotion.
Transcender had a high status. Those who had a clean identity were very popular with all major forces.
For example, if Sulman went to Steel City and revealed his identity. Mhm... as the remnant of the Stuart family, he was definitely on the wanted list of the major cities, and they would probably be besieged by them. But if he was transcender of normal origin, it would be easy to receive an olive branch from the city guard or an invitation letter from a noble force.
As for the private chambers of commerce, which were lower than the official power, would be extremely enthusiastic.
Sulman was certain that if he joined the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce, as Chris said, he would definitely jump from an ordinary member to a director-level member, but Sulman did not rush to agree.
"I need a place to rest."
Sulman neither refused nor agreed, but raised his chin and gently signaled towards the gathering spot not far away.
Chris was overjoyed when he saw this. His fat body trembled with excitement. He didn't expect a few words to get a transcender into the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce. As a special group above ordinary people, they naturally were arrogant.
As long as Sulman did not explicitly refuse, it meant that there was still some hope. It was enough to make Chris dared not neglect this guest.
"No problem!" Chris was very attentive and took the initiative to lead him. At this time, Sulman nodded towards the little figure next to him, "Seems that you are traveling alone as well, you can come with me."
The little figure was dazed, his dirty face smeared with mud, like a small tabby cat. He first looked at Sulman, and then at the gathering spot not far away. After weighing it, the little figure nodded gently, without speaking, and followed behind Sulman.
Under the leadership of Chris, the three returned to the gathering point, which was also the central area of the entire caravan.
At this moment, a group of passengers who had broken free from the iron cages and regained a new life had passed the excitement period. Under the organization of the Lionheart Chamber of Commerce, they had begun to regroup. However, it was a shame that they didn’t stay obedient for long, especially when some people saw Chris’ figure, they shouted—
"The Lionheart Chamber of Commerce must make up for our loss!"
"I can't believe it. You actually led us straight into the trap of Desolate Bandits..."
"According to the contract, you have to bear the greatest responsibility. You must compensate us, at least the gold pound that those bandits stole from us..."
The complaining noise was like a tide, but when Sulman broke into their field of vision step by step under the illumination of the lantern, the whole scene was immediately silent, like a duck being caught in the neck. They saw the blood on Sulman’s body. They thought that this young man must be the one who killed the entire bandit group single-handedly.
Some people drew back their necks and dared not make any more movements.
Sulman raised his eyelids lightly and glanced past everyone—
"You actually still have time to quarrel. On the snowy field of the Frigid Land of the North, no one can guarantee that in the next second, no other Desolate Bandits will appear in your field of vision. Or do you think that there is only one bandit group in this place?”
As soon as this remark came out, the passengers at the scene shivered and did not dare to argue anymore. At least until they were out of danger, no one dared to say things. So they turned around to organize their luggage or search for the missing Snow Nightmares, hoping to leave this place as soon as possible.
IF this was said by Chris, it certainly wouldn't have such a big effect. It was mainly because of Sulman's series of performances that allowed his reputation in the caravan to rise to the top. At least, his speech was much more effective than Chris's at the moment.
