61 Anna

From seeing her reaction, Alexander let out a sigh, "Audrey, you need to know what happens at the end of merchants who are being too greedy, For example, Walter, although he has the power to change the price-setting of the markets price around the Kingdom, he didn't do it. Because he knew that one day there might be competitor shows up and go toe-to-toe with him," he stops talking and looks at Audrey expression, he continues "when that happens, what do you think will happen if Walter being so rampant and greedy?"

Audrey considered all possibilities and came up "All his customers will go to the competitors"

Alexander nodded "Right, many customers will leave out of anger, and went to other place with lower price, this will cause losses and it will take years to recover and expanses for Walter to gain back his customer loyalty and this will cost him much more than just doing business with fair prices, while considering the economic situation of the Kingdom. Even though there are numerous number of merchants in the Kingdom, Walter's stores continue to flourish and most favored by the citizen of the Kingdom,"

After look thoughtfully for a long time, Audrey wondered as to why Walter would have the fairest price around the Kingdom. Now she realized, that he had a foresight of a bigger picture for his business and open minded. If you do not think a few steps ahead it will be your downfall in the future

Walter foresight saw that one day great merchants from the neighboring Kingdom will come here and do business, so his aim was to gain the favor of his customer. Thinking that even if other merchants open up their store, he already has a significant loyal customer and good reputation. This is exactly what was happen to the current market.

Audrey could not help but felt respect for the old man, She then accepted that at the moment even if they wanted to, they will not be able to sell the herbs and could only use for themselves.

Audrey was left in thought until she heard Alexander's voice "Audrey, there are other benefits comes with the liquid have you not notice yet?"

Audrey was surprised and look at Alexander in wonder "What?"

At the moment there was not only Audrey who are piqued their of interest and also Frey, but Alexander with a wide smile also said: "just close your eyes and sense the qi".

Audrey was very puzzled of the unexpected answer but still, listen to Alexander and closed both of her eyes. A moment later her expression began to change from calm to confuse and shocked in disbelieve.

She opened her eyes and stared at Alexander in awe as there were no words coming out of her mouth.

In silence, for few minutes Frey could not help to ask "Miss Audrey, what is going on?"

Audrey continued to stare at Alexander in awe, while saying, "The density of the qi in the atmosphere has been doubled!"

To Frey who is limited with cultivation knowledge could only say "oh" as he had just started his martial arts and not even a cultivator yet, much less sensing the qi, so for him, it was not shocking news, nor did he know the

included illusion formation, that even experts in the Elemental Realm find it not suspicion, and think the density of the qi is because of the location".

Audrey let out a relieved sigh and nodded. Following that the three of them continue to talks about minor issues.

By the end of the meeting, Alexander ordered them to buy several all kinds of herbs around the Kingdom's market. For now, they do not have use of it but in the following future, they might need it.

After everything fish, Alexander went back to his room to get some sleep.

The next morning at dawn, Anna was preparing many things, since yesterday when they heard an issued warrant by the Sea Palace, she left her the store empty. Many have thought they have been sanction by the Sea Palace but did not rule out the possibilities that Sea Palace might also include them.

Because of this, they decided to go back to Frey's house early. Honestly, Anna could not care less about it, she has known of Audrey's strength and it would not be an issued unless they the send the Great Elder. So she scoffed it off as a minor matter and went to sleep.

She slept the entire day and finally felt relaxed.

She knew that the few days her business will not have any customer. Therefore she was calm, she got up from the bed and went to get her breakfast. Yesterday, she had not eaten dinner at all, so she was quite famished this morning.

As soon as she went down the dining room she was greeted by the daily scene, her son talking with Frey while Audrey brought food to the table.

Anna sat next to her son, and look at him with affection while recalling a scene.

Eight years ago, when her older sister had a daughter, Anna was a little jealous of her older sister and wanted to get a child too.

So she went to her father, asked him how can she have a child.

Originally, her family never tried to marry her off to someone because she was fine with it. So she was not taught how babies were made.

She had lived by her mother and father who pampered her very much, in addition, her older brother who always cared for her, she never thought of getting a husband.

But, after seeing her older sister with her daughter and didn't convince her to get married, but want her to have a child. With being unmarried, she could name it after the Webber family.

Few weeks after that, her brother-in-law the King of Snow Kingdom bought proposal with the intention to get Anna married to King of Alba Kingdom. At first, her father refused, but Anna was persistent. So her father gave up and accepted the proposal.

She had suffered because of that decision, but seeing her son, she could say she had not any regret because of what she did.

As she was in deep thought, a childish voice came to her ears, "Good morning, Mom".

Anna could not help smile widely and say "Good morning".
