There is still half an hour before lunch time. It’s too much time for people to feel unbearable. Now it’s too late to go out to practice, so I still ride my horse to follow Mingyue Pond.
"How?"
She was a little surprised: "I usually leave after receiving the task reward. Why are you still there today?"
I said solemnly: "Be with you more."
"Really?"
A smile crossed the corner of her mouth and said, "Let's go, follow me back to the Dragon City Hall."
"Hmm."
Looking from a distance, Longyuan is like a volcanic crater standing in the middle of the jungle in the center of Dragon City. There are more than a dozen roads around it leading in all directions, and a passage is opened at the foot of the volcano. , You can go directly to the center of the Dragon City Hall, faintly, you can see some people outside entering the dragon abyss.
The ice and snow melted, and the command hall became much warmer. A ray of sunlight fell in from the gap in the mountain and shone on the desk, stacks of files glowing with a faint brilliance.
When Mingyuechi took me into the lobby, Fengyu followed and said in a low voice: "My lord, a group of merchants from Dragon City are here, and one of them is the largest iron merchant in Julu City. , His name is Wang Dafu."
"Wang Dafu?"
Mingyuechi frowned lightly: "What a tacky name..."
"Yes."
Feng Yu was a little embarrassed, and smiled: "The subordinates will call them in?"
"Go ahead."
"Yes!"
Mingyuechi turned around and sat in the chair behind the desk, stretched out his hand to tidy up the emblem of the Xia clan on his chest, as if he was afraid of losing it, his hair fell like a waterfall on the fragrant shoulders, a kind of beauty Feeling like he turned around and smiled at me: "You go find a place to sit down?"
"No, I will be your guard."
Speaking, I held the saboteur's handle and stood quietly behind her.
Mingyuechi smiled lightly: "Well, okay..."
……
A few minutes later, with the sound of "Kengkeng", the door of the command hall opened, and a ray of chill poured in. Wind whispers walked in front, came straight behind Mingyue Pond, and stood with me right and left. With.
Outside, a group of businessmen-like NPCs came in. Some were short and fat, while others were lean. They were dressed in brocade clothes, completely different from ordinary civilians. There were a total of a dozen people with very expressions. Respectfully, behind him, four dragon knights pressed their hands on the hilt of their swords and brought them in, but they looked more like they were being brought in.
"Are you all merchants in Longcheng Town?" Mingyuechi raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Yes."
One of the fat guys said: "The younger one is the iron merchant Wang Dafu of Julu City, this is the bow and arrow merchant Suyas, and this one is the ore merchant of Bailu City..."
After he finished the introduction, Mingyue Pond stood up, holding the table with his jade hand, and said lightly: "I am Mingyue Pond, the lord of the dragon domain."
The businessmen said one by one: "See...See Sir Dragon Whisperer!"
"Let’s say, what’s going on in Longyu this time? Why didn’t you stay in Longcheng Town and negotiate business with the negotiator sent by Longyu, but found here?"
Wang Dafu frowned and said: "My adults don't know, the officer you sent to the town is very arrogant and unreasonable. The price he offered is really outrageous. He actually wanted to buy five bundles of stainless steel arrows for one gold coin. How is this possible? In Julu City, Bailu City, and Beiyuan City, you can only buy two bundles of stainless steel arrows for one gold coin."
Mingyuechi smiled slightly: "But I heard that since the Battle of the Tongtian Tower, Bailu City has not had a war for a long time. The army's purchasing power for arrow clusters is not as good as before. A large number of your arrows can only be piled up in the warehouse. The rust is rotten, and now I came to our Dragon Realm. Do you still want to use the previous price to make the Dragon Realm money? Don’t forget, the Dragon Realm gold ore is also sold to you for smelting at a low price."
Feng Yu frowned and said: "Wang Dafu, don't talk nonsense. If you don't do Longyu business, naturally someone will do it."
"The adults don't know."
The fat at the corner of Wang Dafu’s mouth twitched, and continued: "Steel arrows are completely different from ordinary arrows, and they have stronger shooting power. As long as the archer has enough arm strength, they can penetrate the death of the abyss knight and the terror knight. The armor will never break. Adults, you can’t buy stainless steel arrows with the money of ordinary arrows. Such a small one will lose your money."
"Will you lose everything?"
Mingyuechi squinted her beautiful eyes and said with a smile: "Last time Longyu gave you 50,000 catties of gold ore, you refined at least 10,000 catties of gold, so you dare to say that you have no money? Could it be that you want to dig The gold mine of the empty my dragon domain cannot be found. You are so greedy, don't blame me for being impolite... Come on, pull this fat guy out and feed the dragon."
"Hey...Hey the dragon?"
Wang Dafu trembled, his face instantly turned into pig liver color: "No, my lord, five bundles are five bundles, one gold coin has five bundles, and the small ones have no complaints."
"This is pretty much the same."
Mingyuechi sat down again, her posture was extremely elegant, her beautiful eyes looked forward, and said: "Also, the blacksmiths you hire for Longyu, are you here? There are 500 blacksmiths in total, each with a commission of two per month. Ten gold coins."
"Here comes..."
Wang Dafu wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and continued: "My lord, there are also newly made steel swords, spears, shields, etc., and you also need to reconfirm the prices."
"Confirm now."
Mingyuechi opened a dossier on the table. After looking at it, he said, "The price you offered is too high. Now I have decided that the steel sword has ten gold coins and the spear has eight gold coins. Twenty steel shields. If you want to sell it, sell it. If you don’t sell it, take everything away from Longcheng Town. I will also withdraw the army to protect you."
"This...this..."
Wang Dafu's mouth twitched, and said: "Okay...well, just sell it to Longyu at the adult's price, but the adult, the younger one has one more request."
"Say."
"The Heart of the Abyssal Knight..."
"Oh?"
Mingyue Pond was relieved and said: "It is the ruby formed by the heart of the abyss knight, isn't it?"
"Yes."
Wang Dafu gritted his teeth and said: "The ruby formed by the heart of the abyss knight contains a little bit of abyssal power. It will not hurt the body. On the contrary, it is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is very beautiful. Good market, those noble ladies don’t like it too much, and even offered a high price of 10,000 gold coins for a ruby. Therefore, the little one has a request. I hope that all the hearts of the abyss knights obtained after the Dragon Domain and the Purgatory Legion will be sold. Give it to me, let my people refine rubies and recover the cost."
"Yes."
Mingyuechi's red lips lightly opened: "Wind, how many hearts of the abyss knights does Dragon Domain have in stock?"
"The last time the Purgatory Legion attacked the Dragon Realm, we killed more than 3,000 Abyssal Knights, and the heart subordinates have been preserved, a total of more than 3500."
"Good."
Mingyue Pond said leisurely: "Wang Dafu, each Abyss Knight’s Heart is sold to you at the price of 7000 gold coins. You can exchange this money for supplies. Dragon City needs more steel swords, spears, and shields. , Arrow, etc. Besides, I also want you to buy food and livestock to provide to Dragon City. Can you do it?"
Wang Dafu was pleasantly surprised: "Small ones are willing to listen to adults!"
Mingyuechi squinted her beautiful eyes and smiled: "Wang Dafu, you remember, cooperating with Longyu, I can make you rich, but if you deduct too much, you think that people in Longyu are fools, I It can also make you irresistible, no one can save it. Xing Chu Gong can't, and the regent in the imperial city can't do the same. Remember?"
Wang Dafu's face oozes cold sweat: "The little one listens to the teachings of adults..."
"Go, the rest of the businessmen, continue to discuss the remaining business."
"Yes, my lord!"
……
After that, negotiated with the merchants one by one, and finally solved the supply channels for materials such as wood, cotton, fur, armor, war horses, artillery, and shells. Dragon City paid for some ores and other materials in the Dragon Realm, and also The craftsmen who provided the army to protect these merchants entered the Northern Territory to mine, and the Mingyue Pool bargained again and again, which was finally confirmed.
After watching a group of businessmen all leave the Dragon City Hall, Mingyuechi breathed a sigh of relief, lying softly in the chair, and whispered: "I would rather face Camille than this group of profiteers anymore. ……"
The wind whispered a smile: "My lord, you are quite sophisticated!"
I coughed and said: "The price of the war horse is about 30% higher. Next time, remember to find an excuse to make a profit by making a name, otherwise it will be cheaper for these profiteers."
"Really?"
Mingyuechi's eyes were like water, and he smiled and said, "Okay, I will ask to come back next time."
"By the way, where is Longcheng Town?" I asked.
"Don't you know?"
Mingyue Pond Road: "In order to provide a large amount of supplies to the Dragon Region, merchants from Bailu City, Julu City, Beiyuan City, and Longxi City gathered at the creek in the south of the Dragon Region. They built new taverns and warehouses. , Hualou, etc.~IndoMTL.com~ gradually formed a small town."
Speaking of Hualou, she blushed and said, "Huh, these merchants don't have a good thing!"
I laughed and said, "When there is demand, there will be supply. By the way, it can attract so many merchants to gather. Now the army of Longyu should be very large, right?"
"Yes."
Fengyu smiled triumphantly, and said: "The dragon knights have not increased, but the Dragonland Armored Corps already has tens of thousands of people. This tens of thousands of troops will fight directly against the Purgatory Legion to support this. The consumption of an army is quite large. Fortunately, Longyu has opened up many income channels and also provided army protection for the merchants’ supplies. In addition, Xingchugong decided to take 5% of the military expenditures of Bailu City. Dragonland, this is the case every year, so we have money now, and we will continue to recruit and buy horses, and eventually build a truly powerful army and fight against the purgatory legion."
I nodded: "As a member of Dragon Domain, I am actually a little proud..."
The bright moon pool smiles.
At this moment, a message came from Su Xiran: "Team Ding, have dinner!"
