Susumu opened the door to his cabin to let Suihimi enter. He pulled a chair for her and took on for himself, keeping silent to let her explain what was on her mind.

Suihime raised a brow at the chair pulling, amused a little, but sat down on it.

"Gusai-dono wishes to test my...skills, I guess would be the better word for it. He wants to ensure I will be able to forward the clans agendas."

Susumu could not help but look displeased, angry even.

"He forced the betrothal of Rokugan's most competent languist and expert in gaijin lore and culture to have her handle commercial affairs?"

He then looked confused

"He was'nt even interested when I spoke to him about these opportunies..."

"Well, I am to become part of the Mantis. It is expected of me to learn and understand commerce, ne?" Suihime crossed her hands on her lap, looking a little uncomfortable "I cannot comment on Gusai-donos views on your suggestion, but it seems he isn't as against the idea as first suggested"

''I have an idea why'' he said looking away...he let out a sigh

''You don't seem comfortable with the idea...am I wrong?''

"Susumu-kun, I am a descendant of the Throne. I have spent my life either in training with, or around, persons of high society. The idea of commerce is frowned upon highly in those circles, and it's natural that I have...reservations. however, it is something my future Lord and husband wishes for me to learn, or at least a challenge to rise to, so I will not fail" Suihime spoke the final part with confidence, before adding "will you be able to assist me?"

The Mantis drummed his fingers on his desk unsure of what to do. A light frown formed

"Mmh, perhaps...I am not sure"

"You're...not sure?" Suihime asked, confused

"I have much to do here and my own negociations must take priority."

He pondered for a moment

"Tell me what it is you want to achieve and I'll try to work an opening"

"Your own? You are arranging trade?" Suihime looked interested "perhaps I could assist? That would allow me real world experience, ne?"

''Of course I am arranging trade'' he said with a chuckle ''I already have a cargo to sell and am intent on using it to start good relationships with the merchant houses.''

He did let out a sigh afterwards

''But I do not know how things work here yet...like I said, I'll need to make my own arrangements.''

"And I cannot assist with this?" Suihime tried to look more curious than annoyed - something she was good at doing

Author:  Gusai Susumu [ Mon Nov 13, 2017 1:18 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Day 4 LE: Sailors and their brew

''Not for the moment, this is something I should do on my own.''

He let out a sigh

''Depending on how it goes I'll try to find and avenue for you...but I honestly don't know what. I brought cargo here so I have that to kickstart a trade''

Post subject:  Re: Day 4 LE: Sailors and their brew

Suihime went quiet for a moment, considering that, before nodding. Not happy with the answer, but accepting it in her normal way.

"I understand. I hope you will be successful in your affairs. What is it you hope to trade out here?"

Author:  Gusai Susumu [ Mon Nov 13, 2017 4:35 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Day 4 LE: Sailors and their brew

"I have silk and spices amongst other things, why do you ask?"

He was very curious

"And how did Gusai-ue expect you to make trade deals?"

Author:  Miya Suihime [ Mon Nov 13, 2017 4:47 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Day 4 LE: Sailors and their brew

"I don't believe he wishes for me to arrange trade for the Mantis; I was presented with coin, not goods" Suihime clarified.

Post subject:  Re: Day 4 LE: Sailors and their brew

''Coins?'' the mantis wondered

"Hai, money" Suihime nodded "to test that I understand values, thus why I have interest in learning more of commerce."

Author:  Gusai Susumu [ Tue Nov 14, 2017 3:50 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Day 4 LE: Sailors and their brew

Susumu sat back, wondering.

"He probably expect you to bring him cargo...but that might be the most profitable thing to do here. Many things might be available but since they are foreign in nature their value cannot be properly estimated ans it thus leaves us in a vulnerable position"

"Which I believe is the intent; to test my skills" Suihime nodded "which, when it comes to commerce, are somewhat lacking. Thus why I sought your knowledge on the subject."
