Chapter 367: Business proposal.

“So how can my room be of help to your project?” Tessie asked after she finally managed to compose herself.

“I have already seen what I needed, but I still have one more question for you. Do nobles use air fresheners?” Blake asked.

“Do you mean fragrant oils?” Tessie asked.

‘Just like I suspected.’ Blake thought.

“I mean apart from essential oil do nobles use any other thing to make the air smell good?” Blake’s question made Tessie instinctively sniff in the air of her room.

“Don’t get me wrong, your room smells great. I was asking because what I am working on deals with fragrances, so I wanted to know if I am just reinventing the wheel.” Blake didn’t want Tessie to misunderstand his question for an insult.

“Apart from fragrant oil and using wind or water element to scatter it around the room, there is no other thing or way I know.” Tessie answered.

.....

“Alright, that will be all. I will be revealing my project after dinner, so anticipate!” Blake said as he left her room.

...

After dinner, Blake led everyone to his room.

“I present to you the humidifier air freshener!” Blake said as he opened his door and led them into the dark room that was lit by the golden light of the humidifier.

His plan was to give a good first impression of the product, especially to Luciano who was his potential investor.

“Is that Lavender that I smell?” Tessie asked as her nostrils were greeted by the pleasant fragrance of Lavender.

“Yes, it is.” Blake said as he walked to the glowing golden egg that was beside his bed.

“This thing over here not only automatically keeps the air fresh with any fragrant oil of your choice, but it also makes breathing more enjoyable by humidifying the air with water vapor.”

Blake began explaining to them the simple steps on how to use the humidifier.

‘He would have really been a nice salesman if we were back on earth.’ Brian thought.

“So what do you guys think?” Blake asked after his little presentation.

“I love it! Not only would It save me the time and stress of using the water element to scatter fragrant oil around my room, but I wouldn’t have to worry about my room not smelling good.” Tessie gave her honest review.

“Thank you.” Blake gave a bow and a big smile to Tessie before turning to Luciano.

“I am not an expert when it comes to things like this, but I have to say that it is very impressive and I would like to get one.” Luciano said.

“Can I get one too?” Tessie said with puppy eyes.

“Of course, you can, but it comes at a certain price.” Blake said with a wry smile as he scratched the back of his head.

[Cheap-stake!] The system shook its head.

‘Say what you want, but I am not giving away 6k points, especially for something that isn’t important.’ Blake snorted.

“Of course.” Luciano and Tessier chuckled when they heard Blake’s reply.

After hearing everyone’s comment on the air humidifier, Blake decided to get down to the business part.

“If I was to upgrade the quality of the materials and add a few more arrays to increase its functionality. Do you think people would buy it?” Blake asked.

Blake didn’t know much about the wants and needs of nobles. So Luciano who represented the top of the noble hierarchy, and Tessie who was in the middle were the best people to get the info from.

“Nobles spend a lot on very unnecessary things as long as they portray their wealth and elegance. So as long as the materials are of top quality and expensive they would surely buy it.” Luciano said, causing Tessie to nod in agreement.

“Then that means I have a business proposal for you guys.” Blake said to Luciano and Tessie.

“I am all ears.”

From the moment Blake asked about the patent, Luciano had already expected something along this line.

“I would need your help in getting a patent for the design, advertising the product, and depending on how profitable the business is a sort of factory or production line.”

“This won’t before for free though. I would be offering 40% of the business’ profit.” Blake wasn’t too sure if they understood what shares meant.

“An interesting offer...” Luciano said in a pondering tone

What Blake just asked for was huge, but not for the son of the emperor. He just wanted to make sure that it would be profitable, so his father and brother would question his decision.

“I agree.”

After a few minutes of thinking about the business plan, Luciano shook Blake’s hand, thus sealing the deal.

‘Let’s go!!’ Blake mind-screamed in excitement as he smiled on the outside.

Having Luciano as his backer was even more important than the product. With his power and influence, he could make both nobles and commoners buy anything. Also, the business would receive automatic protection from all kinds of problems that may arise.

“Tessie, I was wondering if your family would also be interested in the business?”

“I would need the Winchester family’s large business network. They would help in receiving and delivering orders as they act as the forefront of the business because if I am correct, I and Luciano would like to remain anonymous.” Luciano nodded to Blake’s words.

It was not ethically right for someone of Luciano’s status to openly have a hand in a business that doesn’t concern the royal family. So it was best he remained anonymous, besides he wouldn’t like too much attention on him.

As for Blake’s reasons to remain anonymous, they were quite simple. Most nobles if not all would want to buy something made by a commoner because they see it as an attack on their ego.

The second reason was that he already had too many eyes on him. Being the rank 1 already put him on the hit list of nobles, and for his adventurer life, there had already been an attempted assassination on his life.

“In exchange for their service, I would offer 10% of the business profit to them.” Blake said.

“I would have to relay the proposal to my parents first.” Tessie said.

“Of course, but before you do so I have to gift them an upgraded version of the humidifier air freshener and a letter.” Blake said.

Although it would cost him quite a lot to make for them one, Blake didn’t mind because he saw them as investors. So he needed to give them a reason to invest, but that would be after it had been patented.

Once that was settled, Blake moved over to the final part, and that was offering both Brian and Castiel 5% shares of the business.

“Are you serious about this? Like we didn’t contribute to any of this at all.” Brian and Castiel were shocked by Blake’s kindness.

“Although you might have not contributed, you guys have done a lot for me.” Blake replied.

Since they all came from Earth, Blake felt that the 3 of them were in this together. So, if one of them had an issue it would also be his issue.

After the ownership part of the business was over, Blake began explaining to every party how the business would work.

For now, the main targets of the business were the nobles. So Blake wanted the production to be mainly based on requests from the customer.

They would be able to decide the materials, size and design they wanted, and that would determine the price.

“How did you think of all these in such a short period of time?” Luciano was more than impressed with Blake’s business model.

“I too have no clue.” Blake lied through his teeth. He couldn’t just tell him that he had studied businesses on Earth.

When everything was sorted out, the group. Luciano went to make some calls, while Blake began working on the upgraded design humidifier air freshener.

This time, he was planning on adding some kind of holographic screen that would let users control things like the intensity of the wind and water array, light color, switching it on and off, and an option to use the normal humidifier or air freshener separately.

...

The next day after breakfast, the students were finally told to assemble.
