Captain Grandi, hearing this, exclaimed eagerly to Mirabeau Pulinkovic, "What! Say that again, what have you discovered?"
Mirabeau Pulinkovic had to repeat it once more, saying, "Mr. Grandi, we discovered an open-pit mine around the tribes conquered by the Entuya Race!"
"What type of mine is it?" Captain Grandi asked eagerly of Mirabeau Pulinkovic.
Even though Captain Grandi knew the possibility of an open-pit mine being gold was extremely low, he hoped to hear the words "mine d'or" (gold mine in French) from the mouth of Mirabeau Pulinkovic.
Because if the open-pit mine turned out to be a gold mine, it would mean he could extract a ten percent commission from it.
The larger the gold mine, the more profit he could extract from it.
Unfortunately, Captain Grandi's dream of a gold mine did not come true from the mouth of Mirabeau Pulinkovic.
