"May God's peace be with you. Alchini, how have you been?"

Alchini immediately took my hand as soon as he saw me and responded warmly.

"My lord, thanks to you, I’ve been doing very well. The coffee sales are going quite well."

"I’m glad to hear the business is doing well."

"My lord, two years ago, you were just a young member of the Medici family, and now you’ve achieved such success. The way the world turns, it’s driven by the will of the One, and we mere humans can never predict how things will go, but it’s truly remarkable."

It may be hard to grasp in this medieval setting, but what I’ve done is no less than a person fresh out of university, winning an election for parliament and creating a large company in just two years.

No, it’s even harder than that, I imagine.

It’s hard to believe anyone wouldn’t be amazed.

Honestly, when I think about it, this was truly a matter of "luck being half skill."

‘My effort was part of it, but the times were just right for it.’

"Thank you for the praise, Alchini. By the way, I was hoping to buy some beautiful flowers. Do you have any good options?"

At the mention of flowers, Alchini tilted his head in curiosity.

Flowers, in general, aren’t typically a lucrative business.@@novelbin@@
