After the Viscount signed his contract with Claude and had just stepped out, the shrewd Baron squeezed in. He said impatiently, "Master Claude, regarding the deal I discussed with Count Henry yesterday—trading arms and grain for timber and stone—we can sign the contract for that today as well.
I've already prepared a detailed list. You can take a look." He pulled a piece of parchment covered in dense writing from his coat and handed it to Claude.
Claude was taken aback for a moment. 'I can't believe this Baron drank all night and was still clear-headed enough to go back to his room and draw up a plan.'
Claude took the list and examined it carefully, nodding as he read. "Baron, your preparations are quite thorough. However, we still need to verify the resource quantities and transportation routes to ensure this is beneficial for both sides."
The Baron nodded hastily. "No problem, no problem at all."
