Dandelion, serving as a regular, introduced the tavern while skillfully dealing with the fried fish combo.

Freshly caught market fish can be bought at Novigrad’s fish market, they are cheap. After all, it’s near the sea and the river.

The combo also includes a bowl of tomato cream soup, wheat bread, and a bowl of sauerkraut.

Dandelion, eating bread dipped in tomato cream soup, looked at Lann and asked.

”So you’re really... on the verge of bankruptcy?”

His face, even while chewing, visibly showed an incredible expression.

”That was Valerian Steel business! Were you conned? So much money! You wouldn’t spend it all your life!”

”I don’t quite understand how profitable Valerian Steel is, but when Valerian Commerce Association offered prices to poets and singers for promotions, the prices offered were indeed quite high.”

”The jobs I get have probably been passed around three or four times, with plenty of kickbacks eaten up along the way, and even then, after finishing, I still lived off it for half a month.”

”Oh, well, in the future, if you want to take jobs from the Valerian Commerce Association, you can talk to me, and I’ll get you ones that haven’t been passed around.”

Lann first scratched his head and chuckled, but then his smile turned a bit bitter.

”Of course, if you just want to ’spend’ the money, you probably can’t, but if you invest that endless supply in a business, you can definitely lose it all.”

Instantly, Dandelion, who was stuffing fried fish into his mouth, looked at Lann sympathetically.

He was quite famous, naturally having met a lot of nobles and big merchants.

If one were to judge the abilities of these people’s children, they would generally be at an average level.

If they live a peaceful life of spending money, eating and waiting for death, an uneventful ’painful’ life like that, they could probably live well for several generations.

But humans are strange creatures; once they’re free from worries about food and drink, and after they’ve tired of many entertainment projects, they pursue self-fulfillment.

Then entrepreneurship begins, and soon after, the money that could have lasted several peaceful generations is swept away by the market, sometimes even leaving debts.

Rong Buqiu nimbly jumped onto a chair, looked at his boss with comforting eyes, patted his boss’s shoulder earnestly, and simultaneously pushed his own fried fish meal towards Lann.

”Don’t worry, meow! Boss! In the future, I can go fishing for our meals! We can also work together to earn money, meow!”

Lann quickly pushed Rong Buqiu’s meal back in front of the little cat.

”It’s not that bad, Rong Buqiu, really, it’s not that bad!”

Lann patted the Three-Floral Kitten on the head and pressed it back onto the chair.

”So that’s the story...”

Lann scratched his head and explained his current situation to Dandelion.

After hearing it all, Dandelion relaxed.

If Lann had really gone bankrupt, he would instead avoid everything related to that topic. But now, this guy simply had a cash flow gap, which had already been patched up.

This is considered bankruptcy?

He had a lot in common with Geralt in this aspect, so now he could safely mock Lann.

”It’s not that I’m saying this, Lann.”

Dandelion earnestly spoke to the young Demon Hunter across the table.

”You’re still so young, so energetic. Why would you think of handling a bankruptcy alone?”

”I know, you’ve had a good time in Airetusa, with those female warlocks looking at you like hungry wolves eyeing a bone, and moreover, you have shares in Valerian Steel.”

”But given that, you should rely more on that certain...?”

Dandelion paused halfway, looking at Geralt beside him for help.

”Marguerite Lox Andelie,” Geralt said calmly. The two had been old friends for over a decade, understanding each other perfectly. ”Dean Airetusa.”

”Right! That noble lady.”

Dandelion said indignantly.

”You’ve given your precious youth, so what’s wrong with accepting a little support?”

”Just like me, although most of the time I still rely on my art to live, I won’t refuse the gifts that noblewomen force on me!”

Finally, the experienced Master Dan solemnly advised.

”You know me; my masculine charm is abundant. But one of life’s important principles is: don’t keep up airs in times of trouble. Who doesn’t have tough times?”

”Don’t be like Geralt; he and Yennefer’s situation seems like it’s going to be a few decades to get sorted.”

Geralt remained silent but discreetly pulled the bowl of sauerkraut from Dandelion’s meal in front of himself.
