Chapter 596: Chapter 467: Observing People through Wine_1

Throughout the whole time, Gaven controlled his expression, showing neither joy nor sorrow, as if what he was looking at was not a group of beautiful women, but blocks of lifeless wood.

His experience from his past life told him that any expression he showed now would be a mistake, as it could potentially boost their confidence and lead them to take even more outrageous actions.

As expected, Gaven’s indifferent reaction made the courtesans can’t help but wonder if he was really just a block of wood, or perhaps lackluster in that department, which would be truly disappointing.

Mother Gao Ser was definitely a top-notch insightful observer, instantly deducing a lot from Gaven’s reaction.

No reaction is also a form of reaction.

The young man before her was not unfeeling towards women, which was evident from the subtle reactions of his muscles, but he forcibly controlled it with his strong willpower.

At his vigorous young age, achieving such self-control was certainly not something ordinary people could do.

Speaking of which, if he were an ordinary person, he wouldn’t have caused such a big scene.

Even as the owner of Joy Hall, she didn’t usually command such prestige, to have all the courtesans come out with a single call. It was primarily the allure of Gaven’s name that held enough temptation.

Mother Gao Ser waved her hand and scolded with a smile, "Look at the state of you all, get back and groom yourselves. Otherwise, you’ll give our guest the wrong idea that this is some indecent place. Don’t show your face until you’re dressed properly."

In matters like this, it’s best to stop while one is ahead or it could cause annoyance, especially for someone with strong self-control like the man before her.

"Mother Gao Ser, before you scold us, take a look at yourself," one of the courtesans retorted.

"Right, right, isn’t this just a classic case of double standards?" another joined in.

The relation between the courtesans and Mother Gao Ser was quite good, their teasing laughter indicating a normal employment relationship that became courtesans was their own choice.

Mother Gao Ser replied arrogantly, "When you reach my age, you’ll also have these privileges."

"You’re only a few years older than us, yet you always like to act old," they protested.

"Exactly, exactly, you aren’t even half as old as Dara!" another chimed in.

"Ha-ha... That’s incomparable, Dara is an Elf, and according to their customs, she’s not even fully grown yet," Mother Gao Ser laughed.

"As long as the body is mature, it doesn’t matter whether the mind is or not, isn’t that what the clients say? That’s why Dara is especially popular," one courtesan remarked.

"Hmph, they’re just a bunch of people with weird tastes," another courtesan snorted.

The courtesans laughed and chattered again, but still followed Mother Gao Ser’s advice and went back to their rooms to groom themselves.

Mother Gao Ser held considerable influence among them.

Since she acted this way, there must be her deeper intentions. Following her lead was surely the right decision.

Some guests indeed had peculiar preferences.

If you dress revealingly, they might not react at all.

But if you wrap yourself up like an old nun, they become unusually excited.

Could it be that this young master has such a taste?

If that’s the case, then it’s necessary to take care and prepare accordingly.

After she had sent all the courtesans away, Mother Gao Ser finally spoke to Gaven with a smile, "Please wait a few minutes for me. Delara, take Mr. Gaven to the top-floor reception room and let the gentleman taste our Joy Hall’s honey wine."

"Madam, there’s no need for such trouble; we just have a few inquiries," Gaven began to feel the trouble of being too popular, as a small matter had turned into a major event.

"The gentleman has already paid us a visit, if we don’t serve you well, wouldn’t it be a disgrace to the people of Anfield?" Mother Gao Ser replied with a smile, "Besides, I feel that we might have some business to discuss."

"Well, all right," Gaven knew immediately what it was about.

It had to be related to Ghost Grape Wine and the bartending skills he had displayed the night before.

After all, Joy Hall couldn’t do without fine wines.

Previously, when he was within his own territory, he hadn’t felt it much. Now that he had ventured out, he finally realized just how popular Ghost Grape Wine was and how big its reputation had become.

Especially in terms of beautifying effects, its benefits had been infinitely exaggerated and spread in a fantastical manner.

Without asking, he knew it must be the handiwork of wine merchants who were selling the concept in a new round of advertising bombardment.

These merchants, unlike himself who had a conscience, were less about the truth in advertising.

They exaggerated and sensationalized to sell their products at higher prices.

A product without any effect could be hyped to the skies.

Not to mention that Ghost Grape Wine did have some unique effects in that area, so they were going all out with the hype.

In an industry where beauty is the largest tool for making a living, the fervor for it was naturally even higher.

Due to the limited quantity of Ghost Grape Wine sold initially, many people haven’t even seen it, let alone tasted it.

Now that they had caught the one from the manufacturing house, they naturally wanted to get some through internal channels.

Gaven could now fully foresee the excitement that the new batch of Ghost Grape Wine would cause once available.

By then, what would converge on the Three Rivers Region would not be just the merchants from the surrounding Valley areas, but those from the entire Northern Lands would be attracted there.

This matter would need some strategic planning. He would have to allow enough travel time for merchants from afar and ensure they bring more of the goods he needed to the Three Rivers Region.
