Major of Foundry question

[Fenix]

Well, when you talk to him, you tell him that you are Mighty Bla-bla-bla from SGS and whant to help with Bladelings problem.
He refuse to take your help, but he has secondary option if you have Persuasion.
My char has it, but it is obvious that not everyone will have this skill, so my question what choice then they have?
Am I missed some quest when used option with Persuasion?

[UnLimiTeD]

You solve all their other problems first?
I'm not sure, do you even need allowance?

[Fenix]

No, not solve anything.
Just came in townmine\minetown, and that's all.
If you have Persuasion, you can... well, persuade major? )
So I'm afraid that I miss some quests that way.

You misunderstood his answer. He's saying that without persuasion you have to complete other quests before they will offer you the bladedling quest.
Two other quests that are initiated by talking to chief(the guy in the goggles in front of the mayor) again if I'm not mistaken.
