Chapter 19 Caravans

Before time knew it, a week passed. The procurement team of Bluestone Town, who was heading to the Grand Duchy of Steel, successfully returned to Bluestone Town under the escort of Captain Thomas Knights, and brought five trucks of goods.

William slowly poked his head out of the nest on the top of the north mountain, watching the purchasing team returning home.

In just these days, the small fire-attribute magic crystal mine was indeed discovered in the north. As William's nominal owner, he chose a good place to serve as a nest on the top of the mountain near the mine.

The fire-attribute magic crystals excavated made William's orders to transport them all to the top of the mountain.

Such a comfortable dragon nest was born like this. When you come here, you will feel the rich fire element, which makes Renault feel like a fire dragon nest.

I don’t know how the Dragon Mother Evier is doing. I haven’t escaped that disaster, and there are also Kasa and Phil...

Renault thought for no reason that if something really happened, he felt that he would still avenge them. At that time, both adult male fire dragons had claimed their own houses.

With the return of the procurement team, Renault did not reveal his true appearance to watch, but crawled a little on the edge of the nest and poked his head out to look outside.

"Cargoyle."

In his sight, a team of humans, which seemed to be a businessman, was slowly coming, and it was obvious that they returned with the procurement team and entered William's territory in Bluestone Town.

In the entire Nolan continent, commerce is not a very respectable character, especially human commerce, and some races may even confuse some of them with scammers and thieves.

Merchants from northern countries are more abominable than merchants in southern countries. These people wander around for a long time and deal with dwarves, werewolves, orcs all day long. They are quite cunning and treacherous. Some dwarves even call them humans "with five mouths and long tails."

The five mouths are because they are good at speaking and are good at deceiving, and the long tail is because their hands and feet are not clean, and they often do things that can be used to steal and steal. This is almost intolerable to the dwarves who keep their oaths and will fulfill their words.

However, although these businessmen are similar to the same humans, they will not do that kind of easy-to-hand job!

Renault knew that this should be the caravan of the mission prompts, so he decided to hide in the lair on the top of the mountain to continue watching. For a territory, being able to interact with the caravan is undoubtedly excellent, which means that it has not derailed from the outside world, and the caravan can often bring many daily necessities.

"Oh, my dear Baron William, you must know that the last accident was not my fault. I thought you would never need me again."

The leader of the caravan looked forty years old, with a necklace engraved with the family emblem on his neck, and he was elegant and handsome and handsome, but his narrow and long gray eyes made him feel gloomy, and he was as thin as a sharp knife.

He rode on a strong black pack horse. Even though he was getting hotter today, he was wearing a black wool sweater jacket and hard leather armor, which was in sharp contrast to the strong man next to him who was responsible for carrying goods with his bare chest: "I didn't expect you and I would have a day of goodbye. I am so honored. My friend, please speak up if you need anything."

"food."

William also rode his love horse to the opposite side of the caravan leader, but he did not choose to communicate with the caravan leader, but instead asked the cavalry leader Thomas to communicate.

For a nobleman, they disdained to deal with these businessmen, and the nobles despise businessmen. Of course, William would not talk to him in person, and he was left to Thomas with full responsibility.

The businessmen are different from the businessmen. The former is a notorious dealer, while the latter is a civilized businessman. Merchants are popular, but businessmen will not.

Thomas looked at the merchants who were laughing and talking to each other behind the caravan leaders, and resisted the urge to twist the heads of these people one by one. Since the last time he was plastered by these ghost merchants, he never wanted to see these guys full of nonsense again.

However, I couldn't find almost all the nearby city of Barta along the way. Barta is the city of Earl. Although it is not as prosperous as the capital of Iron and Steel, the capital of Iron and Steel, it also belongs to the second-tier city of Iron and Steel.

However, no merchant sold more than 100 kilograms of grain. The total amount of grain sold by merchants in the whole city was no more than 600 kilograms. Thomas knew that it may have been because of the war between the Grand Duchy of Steel and the Grand Duchy of Black Iron in the north in recent years. Every year, the food in the whole city was short of food.

In the end, I just bought 500 kilograms of grain and came back. I thought about going to get together first. When the war period passes, the grain will slowly recover. There are always several months each year when it is a quit.

However, I met a merchant on the way, and took the brigade of goods, and happened to meet him on the way, and then followed him to Qingshi Town.

“There is some food!”

The merchant clamped his legs and made his abdomen, moved away from both positions, and signaled Thomas to see the pack horses carrying heavy loads behind him: "But Thomas, what do you want to exchange for?"

"fur!"

"Your town only has fur!" The businessman leader Wright said with some disappointment.

Thomas signaled like a entourage knight beside him, and the entourage knight quickly took out a thick stack of shadow wolf fur from the carriage behind him.

"Ha, it's skinny again."

The caravan leader Wright clapped his hands, and the oil on his nose was shining, and he said with great briskness: "Okay Thomas, I am a kind person. How could I refuse the request from my friend? Let me think about how to give you a friendly price."

"Let me do this, I will suffer a little loss, and exchange ten kilograms of grain for one kilogram of fur." ​​The merchant's words immediately caused the whispers of the followers and knights behind Thomas.

"One hundred kilograms."

Wright murmured: "Old guy, are you crazy..."

In Wright's eyes, wild beast fur is not a rare product. This is not the earth in Reno's previous life. The fur on the earth is really expensive. But in this world, wild beast fur is at best a little better than ordinary linen.

"Old Wright maybe you should look at what furs these are!"

Wright was slightly disdainful and looked at Thomas seriously and said, "It's not as good as before. Even your stuff is completely fur, and the dry season is approaching, and even the nobles will no longer need them. I have to spend a lot of time transporting this thing to the south before I can sell it."

"and--"

As he said that, Wright's face became serious and drove his horse forward two steps, looking down at Thomas: "Thomas, do you know how expensive food is now? The northern countries and your Iron Duchy are fighting with the Black Iron Duchy. The entire northern countries have at least 30,000 mouths waiting for food, and the food supply is in short supply."

"Friend, I am a serious businessman and I don't force myself to buy and sell. If you don't want to, I won't force you, maybe you can go to the northern countries to take a look and take a look. Maybe you can find a better buyer there."
