Power and Empire Chapter 414: Turga (2)
414 Turga (2)
The night is like water, and the bright moonlight shuttles through the layers of clouds,
The fat man took the guards and sat down in a tavern on the street. Hu Keqili followed carefully. The fat man waved to the tavern owner and ordered a few glasses of prairie-specific Langa.
This wine is brewed from the seeds of Langagrass that have just sprouted in March. This kind of grass seeds can be seen everywhere on the grassland. It is the most common grass species. Langa wine can be described as the national beverage of Kujit.
The herders often collect Langjia grass seeds on the spot near their tents in spring, and then seal them with water-filled skins. After three months of sealed fermentation in spring,
Until the grass seeds are completely transformed into sour water, a sour and unpleasant breath is produced, and after adding a special spice called La Luka,
Fatty took a sip, his mouth was slightly bitter, with a sour fragrance of grass seeds,
The taste is not bad, it feels a bit modern and refreshing. The fat man slapped his mouth and his face flushed immediately
"Grand Duke, what should we do about Kujit's request?" Hu Keqili asked in a low voice, looking at the Grand Duke's frowning eyebrows.
Hu Keqili knew that this matter was by no means as simple as it seemed, but he didn't know what the fat man was thinking about, so he only dared to test carefully." Regardless of him, he dragged "the fat man took another sip of wine. Wipe off the froth from the corner of the mouth with my hand, and his face is ruddy
"Since it is a negotiation, it is necessary for both parties to show some sincerity to come to the Kujit as the boss. Now we need to tell him with facts, and we are not Vikia.
Helping them to resist Swadian is out of the kingdom’s interest. If you don’t let go of the trade routes in the eastern grasslands, don’t expect a designated cargo to be transported into Cloud City"
"This, is it horrible" Hu Keqili was taken aback, feeling a bit tricky
"This time it's just a nominal trade mission. Even if the official name of the Wikiya is used, it can't completely control the continuous influx of caravans. The Kurgits can get what they need through other means."
"You don’t have to worry about this matter. You are a good fighter. But if you talk about the various methods of business warfare, you must leave it to "professionals." Embarrassed, with a mysterious face in a low voice
"You can use what I gave you to the business alliance branch and tell them that this is an occasional order,
No matter what method they use, within five days, if another piece of goods is shipped into Turga City, they will all roll back to my country."
The fat man's voice paused, and his voice continued, "Remember, this is a war. Although there is no battle to win with swords, it is the most direct economic collision between the two countries. At this point, we Possess absolute right to speak"
"From tomorrow, your task is to hold Duo Weiyan and give me a seat, no matter how tempting the Kujites propose,
You have to learn to shake your head and say, it's a pity that there is no eastern prairie, there is nothing"
"My lord, is this..." Hu Keqili's face was embarrassed. It's not like the Grand Duke always likes to be secretive and sullen in such a direct confrontation with the Kujit.
He looked at Fatty’s slightly drunk face cautiously, and said with a cautious expression, "Forbidden caravans to enter Turga is fatal to the court of Kujit, who is in urgent need of expansion.
Hundreds of thousands of tribes gather in Turga City. Apart from the need for weapons and equipment, the daily consumption of hundreds of thousands of people is measured in tons.
Subordinates are afraid that once a restriction order is issued,
The court of Kujit will collapse because of this heavy burden.
Instead, I did a great favor to the Swadian people at that time,
Opening up the eastern grasslands is also beneficial to the royal court. I believe that the royal court of Kujit will know how to choose."
"Hehe, there are some things you don't understand" The fat man smiled and put the wine glass in his hand on the table again
"Politics sometimes requires this kind of directness. I just want the Kujit court to realize this. We, Wikiya, are not afraid of being tough and procrastinating.
Make it clear to them,
What they now stand in front of them is not the former small southern country, but a rising southern hegemon,
Behind us is a hundred thousand elite army, tens of thousands of Vijay caravans
What you have to do is to tell the Kujites of such a clear warning"
"Warning?" Hu Keqili's expression tightened. There was something in the words of the Grand Duke, but soon he reacted with a trembling voice. "The Grand Duke said that this time, let's Vickia provide supplies. It's the library. A trap of the Jit?"
Seeing Hu Keqili's suddenly enlightened look, the fat man's face solemnly said, "Although it is still unclear, we need to pose more,
Let the Kujites realize that there will be no good results if conspiracy and ambition are hit on us,
"Otherwise," the fat man's voice paused, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "We don't need war, and we can make the Kujit Khanate collapse by itself
"Yes, the subordinates understand." Hu Keqili nodded suddenly, stood up from his seat and said, "I will go to the business alliance branch to arrange this matter and never let a cargo flow into the cloud city."
"Well, this must be done right away" The fat man nodded. A cold light flashed in the drunken eyes, making a fist towards Hu Keqi who was about to stand up and leave the seat
"Holding Duo Weiyan, the envoy behind him had to stand up personally to let them know who the real protagonist is."
Dawn shines from the gap between the towering superstructures of Yunzhong City,
The golden sunlight drives away the darkness of the night and brings warmth and light to the earth,
The caravan is marching on the vast grassland, and the carriage full of cargo makes a rut on the flat grassy mound.
The caravan leader Hazard wiped the dust and sweat from his face with his hand, and the carriage passed through the corner of the hill, and the scenery in front of him suddenly brightened.
Under the blue sky, a white city, like a huge sky pillar, rises straight up into the sky, looking extraordinarily beautiful against a blue background,
"Hurry up, hurry up" Hazard shouted happily, waving to the dozen or so caravan carriages behind him, with an unconcealable joy on his face,
After passing the fork in the road ahead, it is the destination of this trip, the cloud city Turga, as long as he runs like this for 6 more times, his merchant qualification level will be able to break through the intermediate merchant level 3, which is merchant level. At the watershed, only Intermediate Level 3 is qualified to operate Vicia’s most lucrative cargo "weapons"
Suddenly, a black pennant appeared at the fork in the road. A middle-aged man in the uniform of the business union stood at the intersection with a person who looked like an accountant in the business association.
"Sorry, there is a problem with Turga's trade route. Please all caravans go to Vintries to the north to unload the goods." The middle-aged man stopped the carriage and handed over the sign of a business alliance to the doubt. Hazard
"The business alliance is ready to receive the goods in Winterles. You only need to hand in your goods together with the signs, and we will pay you at the current price."
"Vintres?" Hazard said, "We have walked 15 days from the Vícía border to here. If we have to go to Vintres further north, our loss will be..."
"You don't have to worry about this." The middle-aged man in the business alliance smiled and waved to interrupt Hazard.
"We will give you relevant compensation based on 30% of the total price of the goods in Winterless, and this time your enthusiastic assistance will also be recorded in the records of our business alliance,
The middle-aged man looked at the receipt mark on the Azar carriage again, with a gentle smile on his mouth
"As a reward for your friendly behavior, your cargo level in the business alliance will be increased from the current level 2 mid-level merchant to level 3 mid-level merchant. That is to say, you only need to go north for 2 days, which is equal to more Completed a transaction volume of 10,000 gold coins"
"You mean that as long as I place the goods in Winterless, not only can I get 30% more price, but also can be directly promoted to Level 3 Intermediate Merchant" Hazard almost suspected that he had heard it wrong, which is unbelievable. It’s a good thing for him to fly to Jiuxiaoyun early.
In business alliances, merchant levels are generally divided into high, intermediate, and low levels. Each level is divided into 5 levels, and each level corresponds to different supply privileges.
Level 2 merchants like Azar can only transport some daily necessities. Only merchants who have passed Intermediate Level 3 are eligible for weapon subsidies and operating rights.
Things that are more profitable than these daily necessities are the first step for the big merchant class.
If you reach a higher level of senior merchants,
He is qualified to sell the most profitable luxury goods, he is a nominal junior luxury merchant
Of course, the quota of goods that can be obtained is still related to the grade
These seemingly layered levels and privilege levels allow these merchants to make a lot of money while watching themselves step by step towards their bright future
This kind of exciting excitement and sense of accomplishment makes many small businessmen addicted
Small caravans like Azar are the main members of the caravans in Kugit. Under the temptation of the business alliance, most merchants have made a wise choice to communicate with Turga. Caravans detoured one after another,
Within one day, the business alliance intercepted more than 300 large and small caravans outside the city of Turga, intercepted more than ten tons of goods, and subsidized nearly 10,000 gold coins.
No one dared to do this with the decision of the business alliance, because they have to issue the certificate and road vouchers to withdraw the goods, otherwise, once they are included in the unpopular blacklist,
They will no longer be able to obtain the urgently needed goods and price privileges from the business alliance network. In some cases, their business career is over.
Of course, there are also many unnamed smugglers who have also received warnings from the business alliance in Turga. They just laughed about it.
But soon the reception staff of the business alliance gave them a post with a famous stamp, and even the most daring smugglers were frightened by the post in their hands.
The words in the post are very kind and euphemistic. Except for the nonsense of Xihanwenwennuan, it means that this embargo hopes that everyone can cooperate, and the business alliance will remember the friendship of this help
"What does this mean?" A smuggler looked puzzled and turned over, and then looked at the kind middle-aged man in front of him. Are the people in the business alliance stupid?
Preparing to use such a few words that are not painful or itchy to let yourself run north for two days?
"I'm sorry, your business alliance can't order me." The smuggler gave the post to his assistant in a shameless manner, ready to enter the fork in the road ahead,
"This is..." The assistant looked at the name sticker in his hand curiously, but also looked inexplicable. Suddenly the assistant's eyes were fixed on the back of the name sticker
"My lord, let's go to Winterless... the assistant gently pushed his boss with his hands with an ugly face, his voice hesitated.
"Well, what's the matter?" The smuggling businessman looked at him for a moment, his assistant is a ruthless character in the underworld, killing people without blinking,
Otherwise, I wouldn't take it with me, but what happened today?
Not only the voice is surprisingly low, but his face has also changed.
"Look at this famous post, my lord," the assistant whispered, and the hand holding the name post trembled slightly, this time even the voice was not right,
"Isn't a famous post just a famous post" The smuggler feels that his assistant is too embarrassed, and he will be frightened by a famous post from a business alliance.
If this is spread out, how can I get the name of "rock"?
The smuggler took the famous post without angrily, and scanned the words on it again. Isn't it any different?
"Adult, the back, the back of the famous post" the assistant reminded in a low voice
"Back?" The smuggler turned over the famous post in his hand and saw a dazzling white thorn flower, impressively engraved on the back of the post,
The "Grand Duke of Falcon" smuggler turned pale, and his hand holding the famous post was pricked like a fire,
In Vikia, you can be unafraid of the business alliance, but absolutely no one dares to challenge the mighty Falcon Grand Duke,
This is the demon king who has swept the entire Vikia in two years,
Excluding the Kujites, the number of people who died in the war was more than 10,000, and the number of people who died in the battle alone was more than 100,000.
Just this bit of human blood in my own hand, I can’t even compare to the other’s cold hair
In the two years of the rise of Samer,
There are even rumors that the falcon flag of this big man who shocks the enemy's courage~IndoMTL.com~ is dyed red with the blood of the enemy
Many times, this big man seems to have always had a preference for underground forces.
Bloodwashing the underground forces of Vadin, forcing the city of Cristoforo,
One time it was thunder means, the disaster of no roof, one spring breeze and rain, and weathering rain
The two shots are both a big reshuffle of the underground forces.
Even if you are your own master,
The big boss of Northern Hertha, in front of this big man, has nothing but a foothold.
"Order the team to go to Winterless" the smuggler gritted his teeth and said to his assistant,
"Fighting another team", the person in charge of the reception business alliance branch wiped the sweat from his head, looked at the smuggling caravan in the distance, and said in his heart"
