System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1241: Merchants vs Nobles Count Elevan was one of the northern lords who had the qualification to attend the conference.

And it was obvious that, as one of the attending nobles, he would be visited by a merchant.

It was no ordinary merchant. It was one of the ten top merchants who were once invited by Noel to the past conference.

"Count Elevan. Our relationship has gone a long way back, so I'm sure that I have never been stingy with you. I have helped your territory with my power, allowing your people to purchase goods at a reasonable price." The merchant smiled.

Count Elevan's expression remained unchanged. He simply asked, "I know what you want. You want me to persuade Marquis Ardagan to help you, right? No. It's more accurate that you want me to actually recommend you in the conference."

The merchant smiled. "Of course. I have been a good merchant this whole time, so don't you think I deserve some of your help?"

"Help, huh?" Count Elevan gritted his teeth and shouted, "Let me see. What kind of help do you need for a merchant who was once invited by Marquis Ardagan and let the favor slip?"

The merchant's smile disappeared. "Count Elevan!"

"I'm not done. Not only did you miss out on that favor, but you also bribed my wife to get that information." Count Elevan squinted his eyes.

"That's…" The merchant's body was trembling. The invitation itself was a secret. In this mansion, only him and his wife, whom he talked to, knew about this information.

The fact that the merchant suggested himself meant he knew the information. In other words, the only one who could tell him was his wife.

Of course, he would be angry at his wife for letting out that secret, but he was angrier at the merchant for using that method.
