Surviving The Fourth Natural Disaster Chapter 630: Shoulong people’s resentment towards Faerun Continent
Hill took the list from the hand of the puppet standing next to him, pretending to be a maid, with an incomprehensible smile on his face.
An Ran quietly raised her head to take a look, her whole body shivered, trying to be more humble.
But Hill didn't intend to give him a bad impression. Although he kept flipping through the list, many strange emotions slowly emerged in his mind.
The five words 'An's Treasure Building' made Hill want to laugh, but his heart was filled with waves. This is really an instant change from fantasy to fairy tale!
However, in the real world, it seems that there will only be such chambers of commerce that use the name of treasure to show that their background is strong enough, and they must also show that this is only a treasure for the An family.
There will be no domineering names like 'No. 1 Building in the World' or 'Wu Shuang Building'.
No matter how powerful the aristocratic family is, it will not surpass the imperial power.
They were able to half-empty the emperor, relying on cooperation rather than the strength of a family, so unless there is a natural disaster or a riot by the common people, the position of the royal family is still quite secure.
Hill thinks that the eastern world's approach of maintaining balance in all aspects is quite interesting.
Although the quotations for special products such as porcelain and silk in the brochure are relatively high, they are indeed the most high-end ones. It is average.
Hill pointed to a set of elegant and dignified 'Red Plum in Snow' porcelain and asked An Ran: "I think the price of this kind is higher, why didn't you sell it in Deep Water City?"
This set of porcelain is so beautiful, even if it is just painted on paper, it can make Hill feel the beauty of "fairy in the empty mountain, resigned from the world and independent".
Even if people in Faerun Continent can't see this kind of beauty, the paper-thin and jade-like appearance is attractive enough.
"Master Bolaño, for merchants, the top-notch items may not necessarily be the most suitable commodities, especially for merchants in Faerun, their official caravans are relatively small.
For merchants with insufficient background, this kind of top-notch product may be taken over by a certain lord if they sell it. It’s fine if they can’t make any money. That would be too miserable. "
An Ran just said a few words arrogantly, and immediately realized that what she was facing was the so-called official caravan from the Faerun Continent. Of course, I'm talking about those corrupt territories in the south, and they didn't do this once or twice.
Even many caravans that only sell mid-level items will be unlucky, so most of the merchant guilds send items to Waterdeep City for sale.
Although Waterdeep City has to pay a large amount of protection fees to the gangsters and those officials, they at least take money to do things. "
That's right, although the lords in Waterdeep City are quite greedy, they still have a bottom line.
Hill didn't ask why Shoulong's official magic ship didn't sell such good things. Few of the lords in Faerun were willing to spend a lot of money to buy such porcelain.
But they would love to go another way.
On the huge sea, those pirates with particularly sophisticated weapons appeared, regardless of the ordinary merchant ships passing by, but dared to rob Shoulong's official fleet.
As for how those giant magical weapons that can even fight against the elf royal fleet appeared on the pirate ship, everyone knows.
Unless it is the emissary fleet sent by the Emperor in the name of the Shoulong Empire, no one would want to play the game of chasing each other or shooting each other with pirates.
Anyway, mid-level products sell quickly on the Faerun continent. Shoulong's official fleet will never take that risk. Even so, there are always some professionals on their ships who were tempted to betray when they were in Faerun , disappeared without a trace with the goods of the caravan!
The crew of the magic ship is not accessible to ordinary people.
The group of lords in the mainland of Faerun are really good at corrupting people's hearts. Hill knows that among the pirates on the Sword Coast, there is a group formed by dragon people. They are all of similar backgrounds. , was kicked out the door.
In the end, he could only follow the official captain of Shoulong who was full of ambition and led the whole ship to betray.
Hill forgot what that guy's name was, but he probably didn't get any benefits these years. Before the Sword Coast was controlled by Aglaia, the ocean there was basically played by Ambowry in the palm of his hand.
People who are used to being protected by dragons like the Dragon Empire have no idea how much trouble evil and greedy gods can cause.
The sea goddess likes to use huge waves to form giant claws to grab the pirate ship when the pirates successfully rob.
After Aglea defeated Amberley, although the Sword Coast was no longer in danger, there was no room for pirates to display their power.
Aglaia's combing of the offshore is very perfect. There is no need to spend a lot of money to bribe the caravan of the goddess of the sea. Of course, all the money will be exchanged for weapons.
Furthermore, merchants no longer need to worry about having too many ships and being wiped out by Amberley. Of course, dozens or even hundreds of ships can be used to form a caravan. The pirates simply don't have the ability to deal with such a large fleet.
So, the pirates on the Sword Coast must either concentrate in Luskan to fight with the native pirates there, or they have to go to the Moon Shadow Sea to obey the command of the Pirate King there.
Hill flipped through, and the ornaments made of emeralds were also very exquisite.
However, except for those exquisite and gorgeous jewelry, Shoulong people rarely sell ornaments to Faerun Continent. It is indeed very sincere that Anjia is willing to show Hill.
The main reason is that for Faerun Continent, transparent jade is more important as a material for casting spells.
Emerald is shaped by the heavenly fairy, it has a calming and reassuring effect, and has a high status in Shoulong Empire.
However, this does not prevent the people of Faerun from cutting them into small pieces the size of a fingernail. Transparent jade is often used to release healing or divination magic, which is very scarce in Faerun.
When the witches on Shoulong's side use spells, they don't have much demand for jewelry and jade.
In addition to emeralds, this kind of jade from heaven can allow witches to use the aura stored in it.
And when the aura is used up, it can be replenished in a place with plenty of aura, and it can be used again after a while. It doesn't break one piece at a time.
So in Shoulong Empire, most of the emeralds are large ornaments, and those that can be used to make jewelry are actually broken jade produced by cutting ornaments.
For example, the Emerald Mountain that Hill is staring at is really a treasure he has never seen before: on the delicate and transparent black mountain, there are dark green and light green trees, and the white stone network is carefully carved into Creeks and even gray cliffs.
Looking at this mountain, there will be a sense of leisure and contentment. This must be a masterpiece made by a master sculptor with very artistic taste. Hill really likes it.
Then he heard An Ran's dissuasion with a guilty and resolute tone: "Mr. Bolaño... Although this Emerald Mountain is very big, if you plan to cut it into small pieces... Treasure House cannot take away."
Hill looked in surprise at An Ran, whose face was full of panic, gritted his teeth, and clenched his fists: "If I wanted spell materials, wouldn't I go directly to you to buy chopped jade raw materials?
I'm not crazy about such a beautiful work of art, why am I uncomfortable looking for it?
I remember that you sell a kind of emerald square card? "
It is a small piece about the size of Mahjong. Although the water head is not so transparent, it is still much easier to use than some low-grade jade. Many Faerun masters will carefully divide it into four parts after buying it.
An Ran suddenly relaxed, and said in a weak voice: "This is the proud work of the most outstanding jade master in Zhenbao Building. If it is destroyed, he will definitely leave An's house directly.
Because he carried out his mind, he can feel whether his works still exist.
This kind of master, even if our An family has some strength, we dare not force it. "
He couldn't help but add a sentence: "The main reason is that there was a precedent...the Qin family who sold a snow mountain made of white jade to Lord Faerun, and no jade master is willing to help them."
"Suet white jade?" Hill asked with a half-smile, as if he had heard this story before.
"Yes yes yes!" An Ran replied repeatedly, "It is said that it was cut into thousands of pieces, that master was so angry that he vomited blood when he found out."
"That lord's stupidity... Even the Faerun continent is famous." Hill knew who it was, the big trash Prince Andru, "I will sell things to him, the Qin family intends to Dealing with the pirates of Moon Shadow Island? That guy has only one role."
An Ran clapped her hands suddenly: "Ah! That's it. No wonder Qin Jiaming knew the habits of the Faerun people and sold such good things to that lord at a low price!
Back then, there was a bosun of a magic ship ~IndoMTL.com~ who seemed to be called Shengclawed Dragon. He took some sailors, killed the captain and first mate, and defected directly to Faerun, in Waterdeep City.
The dead captain was the Qin family.
They have been trying to catch him back and execute him Ling Chi, but unfortunately, they have never been successful. For some reason, Faerun doesn't like to accept this kind of business. "
Hill was silent for a few seconds before saying, "It's fine now. You can tell them that there must be adventurers in Faerun who are willing to accept this kind of business."
In the oceans before, even the pirates and sailors who dealt with Amberley all the year round would often overturn their cars. That guy was too moody. The boat was destroyed.
The adventurers who took the bounty didn't have the confidence to face the crazy Amberley at all.
An Ran didn't quite understand what Hill said, but she still nodded and kept this matter in her heart. If it was really similar to what the archmage said, then the Qin family would owe them a favor.
