king of ros

Chapter 336
At the same time as the returnees are returning home, in Northeast Ross, departures are also in progress.

In the Moscow market, Anton Ivanovich Serikhov had just received the weapons and armor he had ordered from the blacksmiths' guild, which were all piled up on the carriage and covered with canvas.

The number of these weapons and armor is quite large, enough to arm more than 30 people.

The streets of Moscow have returned to their former prosperity. Anton's carriage was once blocked by the flow of people. There were so many people that it was as if there had been no troubles here before.

The only place where the impact of the war can be seen is the militiamen on duty among the crowd. There are not so many militiamen in normal times.

The prosperity of this Northeast Ross capital is due to the return of the army, and the returnees brought countless gold and silver.

All these gold and silver need to be consumed, and this is the case not only in Moscow, but also in many cities in the Northeast.

The huge demand naturally made business flourish. The local guilds in Moscow clearly felt the prosperity of the market, and their consumption of commodities put into the market increased significantly.

Even the weapons and armor of the blacksmith guild are the same. It seems that everyone dares to spend money if they have money. There is an endless stream of people buying armed armor. After all, the expedition may come at any time, so we must be prepared.

Due to the strong demand in the internal market, the guilds had to temporarily stop taking external orders, but instead concentrated on completing the existing orders in hand and meeting the needs of the Northeast.

However, the number of foreign merchants did not decrease because the guild stopped accepting orders, but continued to increase.

Because whatever they pull in, it's easy to get rid of in Northeast Ross, and maybe even sell out on the way to town.

What Northeast Ross lacks most now is rich people, and these rich people need to consume. How can this not make businessmen crazy, they come from all directions like sharks smelling blood.

The arrival of a large number of merchants gave the gangs room to operate. After hiding in the forest, some rebels quickly degenerated into gangs. They needed to obtain supplies through looting, and these caravans were the best choice.

This caused a lot of complaints to be sent to Rostislav, which caused the prince of Moscow a bit of a headache. He could only urge to strengthen road safety construction as soon as possible. If the roads are safe, the commercial roads will be more prosperous.

After passing through the crowd, Anton and several Ross people pulled a carriage to the outside of the city. Radko was waiting for them here. Behind him was a camp with many militants inside.

Anton handed over the work to his subordinates, then sat down in front of Radko and began to complain to him.

"God, the blacksmith guild lost half of the goods I ordered. What they said about the impact of the war, they are really assholes if they don't buy more for us now. Fortunately, these guys are more sensible, and the missing goods are sold according to Three times the market price was paid to me, otherwise I would definitely make trouble."

Anton's tone was very dissatisfied, but the good order was gone. Of course he was angry, but the trouble was just talking, and few people in the blacksmith's guild would dare to make trouble.

"Three times? Still so refreshing? It seems that the blacksmith guild is really making a lot of money."

Radko was not surprised by the behavior of the Blacksmiths Guild, after all, this is a seller's market, but he was surprised by the triple compensation.

"Isn't it? These blacksmiths have recently enjoyed the privileges of princes..."

In the middle of speaking, Anton's voice lowered, and he whispered.

"Who are those people?"

Anton was referring to the group of guys in the camp wearing fur clothes and looking unfriendly.

"Who else can they be? The gangsters in the forest. I have found out the background of these guys. They are an eliminated group who want to try their luck as mercenaries outside. It is just right to use them as cannon fodder."

Radko remained calm and said in the same small voice, while Anton nodded, indicating that he had no objection to this.

"Then it seems that we can only go to Kyiv to buy, don't worry, there are places where you can buy equipment everywhere." Radko then resumed his normal speaking tone.

"That's the only way to go. I'm going to see my brothers. I'm about to leave soon. Don't make trouble."

After waving to Radko, Anton went to check the subordinates below.

Just as Anton and Radko planned, they were going to leave Northeast Ross and head to the imperial capital, where they would meet the big market.

But if you want to hang out in the imperial capital, as a barbarian, it is naturally best to bring a team of mercenaries, so during the month of arriving in Moscow, the two have been recruiting people everywhere.

As Ross' veteran mercenary, Radko's reputation allowed him to directly recruit hundreds of people at once.

Radko has no stable subordinates, only temporary mercenaries who follow his reputation, and now he has assembled such a group of people, ranging from mercenaries to newcomers who want to take risks.

On the other hand, Anton recruited dozens of people, as well as a dozen stunned youths who were recruited by the soldiers' money, and a few people who were dismissed from the Rostov camp because of their beliefs. He already had the manpower to make up a hundred in front of him.

However, most of these dozens of people are the walled masters and their entourages who lost the city. Because they lost the city, they didn't want to hang out in Northeast Ross anymore, so they chose to take a sum of money from the prince of Moscow and leave.

Rostislav has always been very broad in terms of coming and going, he can come and go as he wants, and he will never stop anyone.

But the premise is that all accounts are settled. If you still hold Rostislav account, then you will never want to leave.

Then they were pulled over by Anton. After all, going to the imperial capital was a very attractive choice.

And they also have the confidence to go to the imperial capital. They have entourage, armor, weapons and fighting power. Why not go to the capital, maybe they can become the next Harald. The success story of the Norwegian king has always been circulated among people.

Then Anton bought weapons to strengthen his own people, but only got half of the goods, but there was no way, they had to leave immediately.

Then Radko gave him a surprise. Unexpectedly, in such a short period of time, Radko found another group of robbers to serve as meat shields and cannon fodder for them.

Anton took a good stroll around the camp, talking to these strangers or familiar people to see if there were any problems. They would have to leave in two hours.

Finally, as the time approached, people began to pack up the camp, and some were saying goodbye to their families or lovers. In the midst of the busy schedule, this team packed up their luggage and was always ready to go.

"Come on, brothers, let's go to Constantinople in the south, let's see true greatness."

Before everyone, Anton said that he had already portrayed a beautiful image of Constantinople in everyone's hearts, but now facing Anton's words, everyone naturally gave countless cheers.

Looking at these soldiers in front of him, Anton is full of hope for the future, he will definitely be able to make achievements in the imperial capital!
Listening to the cheers, Anton's heart was full of anticipation, looking forward to his experience in the imperial capital.

As for Radko, he only cares about what kind of enemies he will encounter.

And so, this typical party of adventurers hit the road, heading south for that wonderful and dangerous adventure that left Northeast Ross behind.
