Release that Witch Chapter 363: Xin Shang Lu

"From Western Region ... set off?" Margery curiously, "I don't know that there is a good port to the sea."

"Not yet, but we can make one."

She widened her eyes, "Your Highness, are you serious?"

"Of course, you should be able to build it by next spring." Roland smiled.

In this era, seaports are all natural. Man-made ports, such huge projects that need to transform natural landscapes, are almost a matter of impossible.

But he now has the full support of Tilly. After the construction of the Sleeping Island's house is completed, Lotus will return to Western Region again. At that time, the disaster of Evil Beast will also recede, which is a suitable day to open the port.

He got up and pointed to the map hanging behind him. "There is a shoal in the south of Border Town. The water depth is ideal and the area is suitable enough to accommodate all the facilities required by the port. As long as it is slightly modified and the coastal mountain ridge is flattened, I Will be able to transport supplies from Western Region inland. "

"Transforming the shoal ... flattening mountain ridge, why would I have the illusion that these heaven-shaking actions from your mouth are not difficult?" Margery said with interest, "However, you have Merchant fleet? Know that sea boats and inland sailing boats can be very different. "

"Not yet," Roland said, "That's why I want you to participate."

"Let me ship out?"

"Responsible for both transportation and sales," he added, "Western Region only provides goods."

This is equivalent to the exclusive distribution rights in the fjord area. Based on the experience of Margery, it is natural to see the profit contained in it. Organizing a caravan to the fjord for sales will naturally make more money, but Roland does not want to invest too much energy and manpower in this area. He only wants to exchange back new funds as soon as possible to maintain the rapid development of the territory. It will be sooner or later until the original accumulation is completed and the credit currency is promoted.

Sure enough, the business woman blinked and asked excitedly, "Entrust all to me?"

"If the price is reasonable." Roland nodded, "If you are willing to represent Western Region's overseas trade, we can discuss this in detail. The scope of sale is limited to the fjord, and must not be lower than the current selling price for Crescent Moon Bay Caravan."

"Of course, just a steam ship that can sail without interruption without relying on wind power is worth the high price of those cross-sea caravans," she said confidently, "sold directly to the fjords. In the islands, I am sure to double the price. "

"And the extra profits can be shared together." Roland laughed, "In addition, the main product has this in addition to steam engine." He clapped his hands, and the personal guard waiting outside the hall immediately took a plate and left. come in, I saw four or five transparent crystal glass bottles on it, each of which was the size of a thumb.

"This is ..."

"Open to smell."

Margery curiously lifted the cork above the bottle, put it in front of the nose and sniffed, and his eyes suddenly flashed, "Oh my god, you made a perfume!"

"I don't know how it compares to Kingdom Capital Alchemy Association products?"

"The scent seems to be more intense," she held the bottle and looked left and right, apparently she couldn't help it. "This is made by Border Town Alchemic Workshop?"

"Almost," Roland also picked up a bottle and put it in the palm of his hand. -- According to his own requirements, the perfume bottles are fired from crystal glass with excellent transparency, and the shape is a standard hexagonal prism. Rotate the bottle slightly, and under the light, the perfume inside will change into different shades, which is very beautiful. According to the sales concept of later generations, exquisite packaging can greatly improve the grade of the product itself. As a fist product to open the fjord market, he naturally treats it with heart.

Compared to steam engine, perfume is a real low-cost product. When Evelyn realized that "the most spicy liquor" is also a kind of alcohol, high-concentration alcohol was continuously produced from her, even the final distillation. All are omitted. As for roses or other flowers with a unique fragrance, it has also been transformed into an oily product by Leaf. Just mashing two or three flowers can fill a jar of alcohol with a rich floral fragrance.

"If you like, these bottles will be given to you," he put the perfume back on the plate.

"Really?" Margery laughed, "I'm welcome."

"I heard that this thing can sell for a good price in the fjord?"

"You should know that Kingdom Capital Alchemy Association sells very limited perfumes every year. The quantity of more than a thousand bottles is simply in short supply. Those big businessmen are particularly special about the fishy smell of their bodies ... so perfume is a standing product for them. Kingdom Capital is sold at the price of five gold royal, which can be turned into fifteen to twenty gold royal in the fjord. In fact, a large part of the perfume sold in other regions will be taken away and resold by cross-sea merchants. "

Margery said paused, "I do n’t know your Alchemic Workshop, how many bottles of perfume can be produced in a year?"

"If the raw materials are sufficient, it should be about ten times that of Kingdom Capital Alchemy Association," Roland deliberately lowered the number --. He does not want to sell profitable goods into cabbage, nor does he want to earn only four or five thousand gold coins a year. As a fist product tied with steam engine, he hopes that perfume will bring back equal profits.

"..." The business woman becomes silent took a while to say, "Your territory is full of incredible things."

"Would you like to sell these goods for me?"

"Of course, Your Highness," she stood up and stroked her chest. "For me, this is also a rare opportunity."

...

After the general intention is reached, the specific details and contract terms will be handed over to Barov for detailed discussion. Roland returns to the office and prepares to write a letter to Tasa lurking in Kingdom Capital.

Whether it is to take the initiative to overthrow Timothy, or to open up new business roads, it is a plan to walk on two legs. He doesn't want to put all the eggs in one basket. In case of an offensive loss, he also hopes to continue to get saltpeter.

This road is self-produced.

In the letter, in addition to mentioning his intention to attack, the other point is to let Tasa contact the nitrating plant around Kingdom Capital and purchase a batch of nitrating workers and send them to Western Region.

The business of saltpeter businessmen this year will definitely not be very comfortable. While Timothy banned export, it also forced them to sell to Alchemy Association at a low price. As a result, the profits of the saltpeter market will naturally fall again and again. Roland believes that as long as the remuneration is sufficiently generous, it will not be difficult to package the factory with people.

The principle of saltpeter is not complicated. Nowadays, the population of Border Town continues to grow, and it can also meet the large amount of manure required by saltpeter farm. The conditions for self-production have been fully met. Before defeating Timothy, it will undoubtedly be the most stable point of protection.
