The guards outside immediately rushed in, about to drag Ologe away. He knew that this might be a dead end, and he immediately shouted loudly: "Your Excellency! There is no poison! That's not something harmful! It was just the princess who used the wrong method, so she called out, there was no other meaning! Spare my life, Your Excellency!"

  Elena's face turned red, it turned out that her method was wrong, no wonder the businessman would exclaim loudly, thinking about it still felt that she couldn't harm people indiscriminately.

  Elena then stopped them saying "Father, never mind, it's just that I didn't understand myself, you all leave him alone and let him go."

  Upon hearing the princess's words, the guards glanced at the duke and saw him nod slightly. They then released the merchant and stood aside, waiting for further orders.

  "Thank you, Your Highness! Thank you, Your Highness!" Oroge exclaimed, kneeling on the ground and bowing his head to Elena.

  "Alright! Get up and tell me what this thing is and how to use it?" Elena took the soap from the duke's hand and asked Ologe.

  "Your Highness, this is called soap, it's used for cleansing the skin. If you use it to bathe regularly, not only will you be extremely clean, but you'll also have a refreshing fragrance! It's a very good alchemy product, currently only available in the distant Maple Leaf Territory. I've gone through great difficulties to get my hands on two pieces, and I've brought them specifically for Your Highness!" Ah Luo Ji immediately explained, then flattered with a sentence.

  "So that's how it is! Thanks for your hard work! But how are we going to test it? We can't just take a bath." Elena was at a loss, wanting to see the effect.

  "This is easy, Princess, you can try it with a piece of cloth first and see how it works. The dirtier the better, that way we can see its effectiveness." Olojede said confidently.

  "Is that so! Alright then, come here and let me see your hand." Elena said, pointing at one of the guards.

  The guard walked forward and stretched out his palm, on which there was a black substance that he didn't know what it was. It seemed to have been formed over time. After having someone bring a basin of water, Elena thought for a moment and then cut off a small piece of soap with a knife before giving it to the guard, saying: "Try it out and see how it works."

  The guard followed the experiment, under Ologe's guidance, and learned how to use soap. After applying the soap, he scrubbed hard and saw that the originally white foam turned black. After rinsing with water, his hands were significantly different in color from his wrists when they came out.

  Elena looked at the guard's palm, it was unbelievable, originally black, now it has become very clean and white, her own hands were not even that clean! Moreover, she could smell a faint floral scent from afar, apparently what the merchant said was true!

  "Great, it seems that this treasure is real, I'll take it! What's this again?" Elena pointed at the cheap perfume and asked.

  The merchant pointed at the perfume and explained: "This also comes from the same place as the soap, its function is to add charm for people who want to be as beautiful as a princess."

  Under the merchant's demonstration, Elaina quickly mastered the use of perfume. In an instant, Elaina fell in love with this perfume and no longer had to worry about her body odor. Although she insisted on taking a bath every day, at most, she just didn't stink, but what fragrance did she have? With this one, it's safe and different.

  "What a wonderful treasure! I love it, Father should reward this merchant well!" Elena said after finishing speaking, then took the soap and perfume and ran away quickly.

  The Duke smiled and watched Elena run far away, as long as she was happy. His gaze shifted to the merchant Olored.

  "Very good stuff, my little angel is delighted. What reward do you want?" The duke generously prepared to reward the merchant, perhaps a large sum of money, but the duke didn't care, he had plenty of it.

  "Thank you for the praise, I only hope that Her Highness is pleased, and do not expect any reward!" Olojede said with a forced smile, but was immediately interrupted by the Duke.

  "Alright! No need to flatter, what do you want? I know the temperament of a merchant." The duke's interruption made Olordej blush slightly, but it couldn't reduce his appetite.

  "Sir, I hope you will permit me to trade in your domain!" Olojede said, his entire body trembling as if there would be some unpredictable consequences.

  "Hmm? Of course you can trade in my territory, no one will stop you." The duke said in a low voice.

  "Your Excellency, I mean to say that I hope to obtain tax reduction and exclusive operating rights, please have mercy on me!" Oroge's entire body was pressed to the ground, his sweat dripping like soup, being oppressed by the increasingly strong momentum of the Duke, feeling that his heart was about to stop.

  Then in an instant, I felt a weight lift off my body, and the long-awaited air rushed into my nostrils, giving me a sense of rebirth.

  "Speak your mind, don't think of using treasures or the like to gloss over things, I'm not lacking in those." The duke's interest was piqued - what kind of courage did this merchant have to stand up against his own oppressive aura?

  "Sir, thank you for giving me the opportunity. I can provide supplies, a large quantity of supplies." The merchant immediately stated his role, as money was clearly not something the duke lacked. So what about supplies? It's worth noting that supplies from other worlds are extremely scarce, and even with money, it's hard to buy good things. Although the nobles live well, their subordinates live much worse.

  In order to ensure the survival of their own serfs, almost every nobleman does not sell grain and other necessities. Now a merchant says goods, without saying, it must be something like grain.

  "Supplies? What would I want them for?" The duke refused without hesitation, although he also needed them, but now was not the time to trade.

  Aurore gritted her teeth and took out the instant noodles she had bought from Maple Leaf, presenting them to the Duke with both hands.

  The duke held the instant noodles and said, "What is this thing? The packaging material is quite strange! However, it does have its uses. If we use it to load grain for the army, at least it won't leak water." The duke held the packaging bag as if in thought.

  "Sir, this is called instant noodles. As the name suggests, it's a very convenient food. Just soak it in hot water and you can eat it. If the army had something like this...". He didn't finish his sentence, but the duke already saw the benefits of it, which he valued more than soap or anything else.

  "Oh! It's so amazing! Bring me hot water!" The duke wanted to try it out, and after the hot water arrived, Ologe learned from Knight Elington, unwrapped the package, poured the seasoning powder into a bowl, put the noodles on top, covered it with a lid, and a few minutes later, a steaming bowl of instant noodles appeared.

  Aroge opened the lid, and a fragrance appeared. When the Duke smelled this smell, he felt that his saliva was suddenly secreted more, and such a fragrance made his appetite come up. He, who was used to eating mountain delicacies and seafood, actually wanted to eat a bowl of instant noodles? It's really unthinkable.

  The eunuch saw it and came forward to stop the duke, saying: "Sir, let me try the taste." After finishing speaking, he ignored the duke, picked up a fork himself, scooped some into a small plate, ate two mouthfuls, and swallowed. As soon as he took a bite, he found that the flavor was not bad!

  The duke saw him chew twice and swallow, his face was actually a look of enjoyment, and he couldn't help but say: "What a nuisance! I'm a saint-level powerhouse, can I still be poisoned to death? Even if the swamp poison dragon came, it wouldn't be able to poison me! Bring it here!"

  Excuse me, I took the bowl from the valet's hand and picked up a fork instead, then picked some and brought it to my mouth. The noodles that went into his mouth made the duke feel like he had been feeding pigs before.

  In just two minutes, the duke had devoured a large bowl of noodles and didn't waste even the soup, gulping it all down in one breath.

  He smacked his lips, and the duke looked at the bowl with some regret that there was too little of it, but he ate very satisfactorily, and was delighted.

  "Hmm! Very well, if you can provide such things in large quantities, then I will allow you to do business in my territory and only need to pay 30% tax. As for the exclusive operation you mentioned, what kind of business do you want to operate?"

  "Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir. I'd like to operate a business selling weapons and armor, is that okay?" Munitions are extremely profitable, and besides, as long as he has the Duke's backing, who would dare cause him trouble in the future?

  "Arms? Alright, I'll give them to you! Remember, instant noodles as military rations, I want to procure 10,000 packages, you go and take care of it, understood?" The duke also put forward his own requirements.

  "Ah! This instant noodles is 10 gold coins a pack! 10,000 packs, plus shipping costs, isn't this going to cost me my life?! I wonder how much compensation you'll give me, sir?" When it came to business, Olorje was no longer afraid of the duke, he started worrying about whether he would make a loss or not.

  "This is your problem! If you can get it, you can do business and have exclusive rights, if not, I don't think you should come to the Lion Eagle Empire again!" The duke sneered and turned to leave, daring to negotiate with him! This is the price.

  The merchant Oroger walked out of the duke's mansion in a daze, today was supposed to be a good day, but all he got was an order for 10,000 packets of instant noodles, how was he supposed to get them? Not to mention that he didn't have the money, even if he did, there was no stock available.

  "It seems that I can only go to Maple Leaf again, before coming, I heard that the leader there is going to hold an auction, hoping to buy what I want." Ologe muttered a few words to himself, then returned to his own business team, preparing to go to Maple Leaf again. This made the people in the business team anxious, traveling on a snowy day, isn't this taking lives?

  But who made Oroger the boss, can only follow suit. The entire merchant group took a short rest, replenished their supplies, and prepared to rest for the night before returning to Maple Leaf Territory tomorrow.
