You've done as I asked. The brandy flows, and the profits with it.

A tavern in Sadrathim? I must admit, it's not the large deal I expected you to find. But I suppose it's worth pursuing. Maybe that'll grow into something larger over time with me as the only supplier. I hope you don't mind if I pay you in that same supply. Come back when you're ready for another assignment.

So Saenus Dibuntus was the other distributor in town, and you've disposed of his stock? Well done. That was very clever work. Either he'll cave and buy from me, or he'll be out of the market for months and I'll swoop in with new supply to claim his customers. I hope you don't mind if I pay you in that same supply. Come back when you're ready for another assignment.

You've made a deal with Saenus Dibuntus and the bargain is only some well-placed recommendations? That's most acceptable. Besides, the brandy I'll be extolling the virtues of will be my very own supply. I hope you don't mind if I pay you in that same supply. Come back when you're ready for another assignment.

I must move this brandy soon. Have you found a buyer yet?

It's attitudes like that which let the Hlaalu run circles around us. Fine, stick to the law. But you're still going to have to find a buyer for all this brandy. Perhaps the other staff here have an idea. I assume they're useful for something.

The Hlaalu Council Company has members at the Mesa Exchange in the Market Quarter. The invoice is for whoever looks after the Cyrodiilic imports. Once you've found out who the major wholesaler is, ensure they purchase the brandy from me. I don't care if you persuade them, or destroy their existing stock to force them into it. Just make it happen.

As much as it pains me to say, no one understands Narsis commerce more than the Hlaalu Council Company. If anyone controls the brandy import market, they'll know. But they won't share that information willingly. You're going to have to visit under false pretenses, find the importer for Cyrodiilic goods and pry the information out of them. Or perhaps they have records somewhere? But you'll need cover, so say you're delivering this moth-silk invoice.

I've got a simple supply and demand problem, %PCname. I'm bringing in shipments of Cyrodiilic brandy as part of my personal allowance on the caravans. However, I've had no success actually selling the liquor so far. There seems to be an abundant supply here in Narsis. You're going to find out who the prime wholesaler here is and encourage them to switch to my supply instead.

Bah. A silly drink. You need to get your hands on mead, friend. That'll sell, and sell very well.

As I said, I would try to open a new market out in Sadrathim.

Trying to find a new market? If I were in your shoes, I would go to Sadrathim. It's friendly to Imperials, and more open to their tastes than most other towns around here. It is something of a backwater, so I'd be surprised if they've got large stocks of brandy already. Maybe a cornerclub there might be interested?

Well, Silana and I go to the Gold Dragon every now and then. But they've got plenty of brandy. Perhaps Niden might know? He's more familiar with the towns outside of Narsis.

Well, Silana and I go to the Gold Dragon every now and then. They've got plenty of brandy, but I'm not sure where they get their supplies from.

Narsis has been enjoying Imperial brandy for a long time now. It's no wonder there's established import routes for the liquor already.

You think I can afford to drink brandy?

I've seen the factor's supply. Always more and more, yet none is sold. Hah. Perhaps he'll try to pay me in brandy soon.

Oh, I've got a market for the stuff. Right down my gullet if you can spare a bottle or two.

I'm sure it'll sell great in this tiny Hlaalu town. At least, I hope so.

Cyrodiilic brandy is pretty expensive, and this place isn't exactly high society. But maybe it'll draw in the pilgrims with a little taste of home. It's at least worth trying. I'll take a case or two and we'll see.

Brandy? Hah! Look around you, friend. Have you seen my regulars? I'm not sure I can take that gamble.

And what a market it is. Why, it's only us, your esteemed company, and that Saenus Dibuntus down in the Market Quarter who brings the stuff in. May the sharpest minds win!

I'm hardly going to discuss company business with the likes of you.

Now, let me see... it seems like the only major distributor outside of our two organizations is Saenus Dibuntus, an importer working out of the Market Quarter.

Then my hands are tied, I'm afraid.

You're after the company's proprietary information on the brandy market? What a curious request. I suppose I could look through the registers for you. Naturally, there's an administration fee for doing so.

You're after the company's proprietary information on the brandy market? I suppose I could look through the registers for you. But there is naturally an administration fee for doing so. Which, looking at you, I doubt you can afford to pay.

I've given you your information. Now leave, before the guards here realize what I've done.

I suppose I could be swayed by the factor's influence, but I'm exceptionally overstocked on brandy as it is. If he can spread word of my imports to his friends and acquaintances, I'll accept the deal.

I'm more than happy with my current supply. In fact, I've at least six months' stock upstairs already. While I'm flattered by the factor's attention, I must say no.
