Chapter 515: "The Government's Interference"

Not to mention that the mafia members were so concerned about Ainsley's well-being that they racked their brains to entertain the baby. 

The mansion's people worked together to make Ainsley enjoy her one week stay at the mansion without going anywhere. 

And Ainsley obeyed their wishes. She watched anime, read her favourite manga, lazed around all day…

But in the end, her mind wandered to the Godfather, who was having a meeting right now. 

"Hmmm…" Ainsley rolled on her bed while playing with Cellino's fur. Right now, the Godfather should have met Geraldine…

Did they talk it out nicely? Is the meeting going well? Anything wrong? Maybe someone tried to harm the Godfather or something…

I-it is impossible, right? 

While Ainsley was worried sick about the Godfather, at the same time, the young spirit was sitting on the sofa pretending to be a normal human being even when his body was that of a ghost. 

[So, granny shaman, tell the old man that this Lord is already here.] The Godfather crossed his arms while looking at Rie, who was sitting on the other one-seat sofa near him. 

Right now, Geraldine also already sat right across the Godfather's seat, but he only saw Rie and couldn't see the Godfather at all. 

In fact, the Godfather wasn't the only spirit in the room. Rie's other two spirits also stood behind Rie, silently guarding her while peeking at the Godfather. 

They're acting as if the Godfather would do something to their contracted shaman! 

Seeing the three spirits acted so guarded against each other, Rie kneaded her forehead and sighed. 

"Geraldine, the Godfather is already here. He's now sitting in front of you." Rie pointed at the empty one-seat sofa across Geraldine's sofa with a stiff smile on her face. 

She suddenly didn't know why she agreed to become the Godfather's translator…

But Ainsley promised to help her contract a cute baby monster...so maybe it wasn't a loss. 

"Hurry, Geraldine, greet the Godfather." 

When Geraldine heard Rie's words, he subconsciously straightened his back and looked at the 'empty' sofa with a solemn face. 

"Nice to meet you, Godfather!" 

The old man bowed while still sitting on the sofa. After all, he's old...so he couldn't stand up very often. 

The Godfather nodded at Geraldine's polite manner and immediately looked at Rie, his translator. 

[Tell the old man that this Lord is here to discuss the potion auction license on behalf of this lord's Lil Lass. 

Rie conveyed the Godfather's message word by word to Geraldine, and Geraldine immediately responded. 

"Ah, yes, regarding the potion auction license...we can give out the license, but we also need the government's signature legalizing the license…" 

Geraldine didn't beat around the bush and immediately spoke straight to the point. 

"We, the Godlif alchemist guild, have agreed to publish the potion auction license for the Sloan Family in exchange for some payment and business partnership, but…" 

Geraldine let out a long sigh. 

"As you can see, we have contacted the government about this issue, and they haven't responded yet." 

Geraldine showed the soft file on his phone to Rie, and Rie showed it to the Godfather as proof that the alchemist guild already agreed to give the license. 

The contract was also ready and was already signed. It was only missing two more participants...the government and the Sloan Family. 

"In the contract, we stated that the Sloan Family only has to give us one bottle of each potion type that they're going to auction whenever they hold an auction." 

Geraldine continued his explanation as he took back his phone from Rie. 

"I think your family head will agree with our condition. All we have to do now is to let your family head sign the contract and...wait for the government to sign it too." 

When mentioning the government, Geraldine furrowed his eyebrows, making his face even more wrinkly than before. 

"But, you know...the government has never liked the mafia society...so I doubt they will sign the contract." 

At Geraldine's words, the Godfather subconsciously clenched his fists. 

It's the government again...well, it's as expected. After all, mafias are illegal organisations that do all sorts of bad things behind the government's back, making trouble for the country. 

But so far, the mafia society had been expanding and could stand on par with the Godlif Country's government. It's no wonder that the government truly disliked this society that could even rival them. 

[...is there a way to get the government to sign the contract? Or maybe you can just give us the license without needing the government's approval?] 

Rie conveyed what the Godfather said to Geraldine, and Geraldine couldn't help but stroke his beard. 

"Unfortunately...this is a potion auction, not any other potion businesses. For things like an auction that can involve many forces, we need the government's approval to make it legal." 

As long as the government didn't agree, whatever auction Ainsley would hold in the future, it would be considered illegal. Even the Alchemist Guild could do nothing about it. 

They didn't oppose the auction, but it didn't mean they support the auction either. 

Ainsley was smart enough to bribe the Godlif alchemist guild to headquarter with unique potions when she planned the next auction. 

However, the alchemist guild still couldn't make the auction 'legal'. Thus, all sorts of problems that might occur in the future would be the Sloan Family's responsibility and not the alchemist guild. 

"Maybe...if we can negotiate with the government...but you know, this old man thinks the government will want to meet your boss...face-to-face." 

Geraldine inhaled deeply and exhaled. 

"And the meeting place will be at the government's place. I...don't suggest your boss come to the meeting." 

It's too risky!
