Before ascending to God, be a good lord

Chapter 269. 266. Private Trade
On the morning of May 5th, Laniya finally arrived at West No. 12 Post Station. If Laniya hadn't had no magic power and couldn't ride the fire, Rand must have come over early in the morning to take her directly back to the iron mine.

As the consul, Laniya moved slowly all the way because she had to check whether there was any latest information or letters sent to her every time she arrived at a station, and she also had to have a general understanding of the situation of the stations along the way.

So, during the morning stop, Laniya began to check all the messages sent and received in the West 7 post station.

"Sister Laniya, take a look at the information, it's so strange!" Lian Haili who spoke, she is a girl who has followed Laniya since the salt mine, and is a rare writer in the territory, " Knights Dugan and Knight Pete both ordered a batch of potion wine from Knight Rolle in the Rot Territory, and also sent some information to the chamber of commerce in King Capital and Maned Wolf City."

Laniya looked at the information sending and receiving records, "This Pete is an intermediate knight, and he ordered two tanks of potion wine, which will be transported with the ship when he supplies the iron ore next time? Will it be sent to West 7 Station?"

"This one is also very strange. This high-ranking knight named Petraeu asked the station to help him transport a package, and he specified that it would be delivered to Knight Tierney." Lian Haili took another piece of paper. The content record of the fast horse delivery.

"Which one is Lord Laniya?" A young knight pushed open the door of the hall of the inn, and asked respectfully.

"I am, who are you?"

"I'm Tomokri Lanyuan, my father Petraeu Lanyuan wants to see you!" As a junior knight, Tomokri didn't have the slightest arrogance to Laniya, the demonless man he had never met before. Respectfully invite her to the garrison area of ​​the post station.

"You are the consul of Laniya, right? I have heard that you are coming, because we are about to set off to the west, and we cannot meet you." Petraeu is still very friendly and respectful to Laniya, "Land People have already said that they are waiting for you to come to the iron mine to take over the government affairs, and he will not feel at ease to leave without you."

Any big family would have a management-type non-monster like Laniya, and all such people would be the patriarch's cronies. Petraeu was well versed in the ways of the king's capital, so naturally he didn't dare to offend her.Immediately, he took out a list, "These are my family members. You can order them whenever you need them. I also hope that you can take care of me."

Laniya watched Petraeu's pioneering team leave, wondering why the senior knight condescended to wait for him here, and even gave some jerky of monster meat.As Rand's confidant, Laniya naturally has no shortage of Warcraft meat or any daily necessities, but she also knows that such dried meat should be more expensive to Petraeu.

"Sister, there is another situation!" Lian Haili came out of the station and took a piece of paper, "Just now an internal merchant fleet met Sister Wendy and their fleet. There is a man named Gatsby Lanyuan's magician bought all the pickles and hoped that the caravan would be sent directly to the iron mine."

"Ah? No, the internal caravan can only collect work-point vouchers. Shouldn't this mage have just been rescued in the iron mine? Where did he get the work-point vouchers?" Laniya had no expectation of the situation in front of him.

"Is it possible that it belonged to Tierney or Dugan? They have contributed a lot this time, and they probably issued a lot of work-point coupons." Lian analyzed, "But why did these two knights help this mage?"

"Whatever the reason, I'm afraid this iron mine is not as well managed as a salt mine"

. . .

At this moment, Wendy was still in the cabin of the lead boat, staring at Dugan and Tierney on the opposite side together with Lili and Tania.

"Captain Duggan, if you need it, you can explain to Lord Viscount that there is no need to sell your work coupons to that mage from the Lanyuan family, right?" Wendy questioned, "And Tierney, why did you bother?" Sell ​​him the work point coupons, you don’t know, if you do this, the entire station from West 4 to West 10 will not be able to get pickles!”

The two knights sat awkwardly opposite the three mages, listening to Wendy's scolding. This matter was indeed a whim of the two of them, and they used their work points to buy the materials for the intermediate magic beast in the hands of the mage Gatsby. Materials from the Hindukel Valley are relatively rare in the human empire.

"Wendy, when the lord gave us the work-point coupons, he didn't say he wouldn't allow them to be spent!" Dugan was so scolded by the little girl that he justified himself, "It's what the adults said to spend as money, so we'll use it to spend it!" I came to buy materials, and your lord didn’t say that you can’t spend them all at once, you can’t buy magic materials, and you can’t buy all the products in the caravan?”

"But Captain Dugan, you can't think that Master Gatsby bought all the pickles and distributed them in the iron mine?"

"Sister Wendy, I think I asked Daqila yesterday that there is indeed very little salt in the iron ore. The food that many leaders and demon possessors eat every day is not only oily, but also very bland." Tierney also explained In a word, in his opinion, what Gatsby is doing is no different from the merchants who resell supplies in Dragon Tooth City.

"But the internal caravan also sells salt! There will be enough salt in the iron mine soon!"

"That's why we thought that even if he bought all the pickles, it wouldn't be a problem to sell them in the iron mine! The pickles and salt arrived at the iron mine at the same time!" Dugan explained, "Since he wants to buy it, the money is enough , and it won’t have a major impact, so what’s the problem?”

"He shouldn't be allowed to get a large amount of work-point coupons!" The two knights in front of them had no knowledge of Gatsby's possible influence, and even acquiesced, but Wendy and Lili understood that most of the barbarians in the territory were Without any economic acumen, all the barbarians are completely based on the leader of Rand, living together with the human race, leaving Gatsby to mess around will sooner or later affect the relationship between the Benma tribe and Yeqi City.

On the other boat, Gatsby Lan Yuan is waiting to reach the next station with her partner and lover Sally Feilong.

"Why did you choose pickles? How much profit can this make?" Sally Feilong was a little annoyed. The two monster materials she left behind were gone just like that. They were replaced with so-called tokens in the territory, but bought A pickle that can be substituted for salt.

"What do you know? The important thing is not the pickles, but the two knights." Gatsby took out a clay bottle, which was the potion wine that Duggan had just sold him.

For Gatsby, Duggan and Tierney are the only two people in the entire knight order who can travel between the capital and the territory, and they are also very prestigious knights in the knight order. The entire route from the regiment to the capital.For such a channel, it is natural to give a hard enough gift.

"If we dare to monopolize supplies such as salt and potion, we will send them to the orc tribe as slaves tomorrow. Pickles are not a big quantity, and they are not necessary. They can just open up the relationship between the upper and lower levels." Gatsby took a sip of the potion wine, Then he asked, "Have you thought about what to bring to your family? Don't both of them go back to the capital by then, we won't be able to contact Feilong's family."

In the evening, the fleet finally received a reply from Rand himself: This business is legitimate, implement all the transaction information that has been reached, establish a new fleet to increase the frequency of internal trade, and replenish the goods in the western territories, Tenny Ya's fleet no longer stops sailing during the return voyage, and speeds up to Yeqi City.
