Chapter 359 – Cooperation

In a private meeting room in the auditorium, Zero saw the current Patriarch Biansi of the Black Rose Home. The reception room was very simple and didn’t have any extravagant decorations. The spacious and simple hall was covered with a dark red carpet, and the crystal lamps in the hall gave off a soft glow. The comfortable sofa chair was placed in the middle of the hall, and there were only three bottles of red wine in the black wooden wine cabinet.

On the wall of the main hall opposite the entrance hung an oil painting against a background of blue skies and white clouds. Three farmers were stooping over the field to pick up wheat ears.

A slender figure stood with her back facing Zero. From the view of her back, it was clear that she was an extremely well-dressed woman. She was wearing a long, gauzy dress that perfectly revealed her graceful figure, and she was wearing a hat with chicken tails that had been popular among medieval European ladies of the old age. The so-called chicken tail hat was a hat with colorful feathers on top of it. Because of its shape, it became known as the chicken tail.

After sending Zero to the reception room, Cassero quietly retreated, leaving the space behind for Zero and the Black Rose Home’s Patriarch Biansi.

What made Zero surprised was that he did not feel any trace of energy from Biansi at all. The biological energy of this Patriarch of the Wealthy Class was not very obvious either. If he had not used a special method to hide his presence, then this person in charge of Black Rose Home was actually an ordinary person?

Clearly, the second guess made it hard for Zero to accept. In troubled times, it was difficult for ordinary people to control an aristocratic family. The only exception was the, a kingdom which had been fought personally by the old Brent. Although it was just an ordinary person, it still held power until now.

However, the Parkland’s valve was only a third-rate consortium within the power circles of the Dark Council, a local aristocrat in the wilderness. However, the Black Rose Home was one of the Asgard’s Three Wealthy Classes. He had control of 13% of the Asgard’s economic resources and was engaged in food and medicine business. He had hundreds of companies and factories. For such a great noble, which of them was not a formidable and peerless powerhouse to be the head of the family?

“In the old era, during the Middle Ages, in 1857, French painter Miller created this painting, ‘Picking up the tassels’. How did the Mr. Zero feel about his drawing?” With his back facing zero, Biansi asked indifferently.

After staring at it for nearly a quarter of an hour, he opened his mouth and said, “It’s very realistic, very ordinary.”

Biansi chuckled: “Just by hearing your words, you know that Mr. Zero is a true warrior, and not some nobleman who is just strolling leisurely in the art studio’s hall with his mouth full of extravagant words.”

Zero said lightly, “I’m not some aristocrat. I work with the Death God every day, so I naturally do not have the time to appreciate any art.”

“Very good, I really like your straightforward character.”

Biansi turned around, but sher face was covered by the black veil that covered her. Even with her zero eyesight, he could only see the face behind the veil. Of course, if Zero was willing, as long as he adjusted the vision of his left eye, he would be able to see very clearly. But he also knew that this was a very rude act.

The first rule of aristocracy, said old man Redis to him, is politeness!

So he did not pay close attention to Biansi’s appearance. But from her outline, even though she was almost thirty, she was still a beautiful woman.

Biansi continued: “Seeing that I am an ordinary person, is Mr. Zero disappointed? After all, Black Rose Home is still one of the Three Wealthy Classes, but I, the Patriarch, actually don’t have the slightest bit of ability.

Zero shook his head and said, “I don’t think so. I miss Biansi …”

“I’m not married yet.” Biansi pointed it out softly as if she knew why Zero had stopped.

“I’m sorry, but I wanted to say that for Miss Biansi to be able to control such a large clan as an ordinary person, there must be something extraordinary about her. If I am your enemy, then someone like Miss Biansi is definitely number one on the list. Because if there is no force, then Miss definitely has enough strength to resist! ”

Biansi finally felt surprised. She invited Zero to meet her was undoubtedly to recruit her. But in Biansi’s eyes, zero was just a small bargaining chip. If Black Rose was not the weakest in Three Wealthy Classes, Biansi would not even bother to recruit a Holy Spirit. And she had taken a liking to zero, because this king had specially held a celebratory feast for him tonight. This caused the current patriarch of the Black Rose Home to have to reconsider the value of zero.

But even so, Zero wouldn’t benefit much from her, and she wouldn’t give much of it either. But now, Biansi had to reconsider her position on zero. Through the black veil, Biansi looked at Zero seriously. It was just like the rumors in the outside world. Zero was extremely handsome, yet he did not lose his masculine appearance. For a man like this, if Biansi was ten years younger, she would definitely be moved.

And right now, the ten years of settling down had already caused Biansi to forget the romantic feelings she had when she was young. Right now, when she looked at a person, she paid more attention to their heart and potential. In terms of potential, Biansi was not worried that she would end up losing out, because even if she did not evaluate it, with the opinions of the outside world on zero, this young man would be at least a Tenth Order warrior. If he were to form her own pseudo-domain once more, then Zero would have the terrifying potential to directly point at the twelfth stage, or even the Ascendant level Thirteenth step.

As a result, Biansi observed her heart and realized that she had a pair of clear eyes. Black and gold, no matter which pupil it was, they were all as clear as a pool of clear water. Biansi knew that for a person with such eyes, they would do things straightforwardly and use kindness to make it worth it; if they were enemies, then they would definitely be struck by lightning!

In the next moment, Biansi already had a plan.

“I want to talk to Mr. Zero and see if there’s any possibility for us to cooperate.” Biansi came to the side of the sofa and made a “please take a seat” gesture towards Zero.

He sat down gracefully and noticed that there was already a handful of fine wine on the black stone table.

Biansi said to Su Yun, “This is a genuine fine wine from the old era. The rarest thing is that they have not been contaminated at all. Mr. Zero, please enjoy. We will talk about other things after we have tasted the wine. ”

Taking a sip, he felt a sweet fragrance in his mouth without a trace of bitterness. However, after he drank it, his handsome face suddenly turned red and he gradually exhaled the smell of alcohol from his mouth and nostrils. After a moment, he said in surprise, “What wine is this? The aftereffects are so powerful. ”

“It’s a secret brewing method for the tequila wine. The brewing method has been lost, so these are the only three bottles left in the entire world.” Even a normal person wouldn’t be able to take a sip. Mr. Zero being able to maintain his consciousness after drinking half a cup of wine in one go is already quite amazing. ” Biansi smiled slightly, at the same time, she picked up her memory, and lightly sipped and carefully savored the taste.

Xiao Xiu’s face was red again, but this time it was not because of the alcohol, but because he felt embarrassed after hearing Biansi’s words. He never expected that the wine Biansi took out to entertain him would be the rarest and most rare wine in the world. Even if he did not know the price of the wine, he knew that every single bottle was worth a lot and never would Biansi casually take them out to receive him.

Looking at Biansi who was trying her best to take a taste of the light quality food, the air that she emitted just now was like drinking wine, it was extremely rude. Zero shook her head secretly, mocking herself for not being worthy of being a noble.

After drinking a small mouthful of the tequila, Biansi immediately flew up with two red clouds. She put down her wine heart and looked at Zero, “Every single Holy Spirit already has the qualification to own private property, I think that you would definitely not be willing to become a warrior who listens to orders and fights. So the next step, company or factory is probably the choice of the gentleman. Although our family is not as wealthy as the Herburn and Pranning families, other than these two families, there are no other families in Asgard that are able to surpass us in terms of wealth, resources, talents or even other things. ”

“It’s not my boasting, it’s the truth.” Biansi slowly said: “Therefore, I have a suggestion, Mr. Zero wants to see if it’s appropriate.”

“Go ahead.”

Biansi said: “I can provide you with a set of starting funds, and if Mr. Zero needs it, we can also provide you with resources, talents, and even soldiers or capable people. Of course, there is a limit to the amount of resources we can provide, and as for the amount of resources we can provide, that will depend on the effect that the Mr. Zero can bring out. ”

Zero Xiao asked: “Then I wonder what kind of help Miss Biansi would like me to provide.”

“A lot.” Biansi said indifferently: “For example, the fighting strength of Mr. Zero and your team, although we are in the production and development of food and medicine, but sometimes we will also search and develop some uninhabited areas in the wilderness. Mr. Zero was born in the wilderness, so they should know that there were terrifying beasts lurking in some areas. Secondly, if there is a need, Mr. Zero being able to support some of our family’s decisions from our standpoint is also of great use. Furthermore, if the Mr. Zero finds some strange and valuable things, such as living things or ancient civilization items, it would be wise to give them priority. The price that we offer to buy them is definitely more reasonable than the official price. ”

“Of the three roles that Miss Biansi has listed, I think I can do the first and third. But for the second thing, I don’t think my voice is strong enough to influence the will of those in power, like Mr. Douglas. ”

Biansi smiled and said, “Mr. Zero doesn’t need to belittle yourself. With your potential, there will be a day when you will become someone at the top of the pyramid.

“Miss is even more confident in me than I am.” Then he asked, “Let’s talk about the third point. If I can provide you with a ship from an ancient civilization, I wonder how much Miss Biansi is willing to pay for it.”

These words were like a bomb that caused Biansi’s entire body to tremble. After thinking for a moment, she slowly raised a finger.

“Ten million?” Zero was slightly disappointed.

“No, 100 million!” Biansi corrected.
