"I have a new task for you two." Lionel lightly crossed his arms while looking at the massive warehouse behind them.
"What is it, my lord?"
"I want you two to start looking around for possible business partners." Lionel looked at the mountains of sugar around them.
"Business partners?" Eiden repeated.
"Yes," Lionel nodded lightly. "Find merchants or anyone who regularly needs large amounts of sugar."
The two quietly listened carefully as he explained.
"Don't approach them directly, but just gather information first."
"What kind of information, my lord?"
"Their background, reputation, finances, and how many goods they usually handle," Lionel answered calmly. "I also want to know if they're trustworthy."
"Understood, my lord." Rylan immediately nodded.
"I'll leave the scouting to you two," Lionel added afterward. "Write everything down properly, too."
Eiden puffed his chest confidently.
"You can leave it to us, my lord!"
