Every time I come home, my wife is making garbage

Chapter 397 Scare Them

The Desert Kingdom and Zhang Jingyi finalized the first deal.

The transaction location was set in the Elf Village. The Desert Kingdom sent a fleet to deliver the black oil directly to the Elf Village, and then their own fleet transported the cabbage back.

Simply put, the Desert Kingdom bore all the transportation costs, so the final price agreed upon by both parties was one barrel of cabbage for fifty barrels of black oil.

Both parties were satisfied with the price.

The black oil producing area of ​​the Desert Kingdom suddenly became lively, and a large number of gerbils were sent here. Of course, the Desert Kingdom still implemented the slavery system, so these gerbils sent to dig for oil were all slaves, and they would not receive a single copper coin as wages!
With only one bite to eat, they were forced to dig deep underground until they reached the shallow oil layer, and then use the "clockwork pump" they imported from the Magic Kingdom to pump up the black oil and put it into barrels.

Then a large number of camel men were dispatched. Of course, these camel men were all slaves and they did not receive any wages. The nobles just gave them some cactus to ensure that these camel men would not starve to death and forced them to desperately deliver the black oil barrels to Huangsha Port.

Here, a large transport fleet is ready.

The big businessman Atayi was personally in charge of this business trip, while the naval admiral Akadullah commanded several warships to protect the transport ship.

This is a trade that can change the country's destiny, and failure must not be allowed.

Atayi stood at the bow of the large merchant ship, feeling very happy as he watched barrels of black oil being loaded onto the ship.

Akadullah was on another warship not far away and waved at him: "Atay, what are you laughing at?"

Atayi laughed and said, "I'm laughing at the fact that although the King Zhang Jingyi of the Magic Kingdom is smart, he didn't take into account that my Desert Kingdom has a large number of gerbil and camel slaves. The slaves work at no cost, and we don't actually have to pay for pumping and transporting the oil. Hahahaha, when I negotiated the price with him, I used the transportation cost as an excuse to raise the price to one barrel of cabbage for fifty barrels of black oil. We made a huge profit."

Akadullah also laughed: "He is a king after all. How can he be as professional as you in business?"

Atayi laughed loudly: "Yes! Hahaha, look at our black oil, there is so much, the whole fleet is full. If so much black oil is transported to the Elf Village, it will definitely scare Zhang Jingyi. If he can't take out so many cabbages, it will be embarrassing, hahaha."

Akadullah nodded: "I don't think he can come up with so much cabbage at once, and he will have to owe us a debt. Then we can make other requests."

"Hahaha, yes, let's go and scare him."

The two were full of confidence and had no fear at all. They led their fleet straight to the elf village.

After sailing for several days along the coastline, the elf village finally came into sight.

At this time, the Elf Village is no longer home to only elves. Many humans and sub-humans have also moved into the Elf Village to work, live and study.

So when the fleet of the Desert Kingdom arrived, the races that came to greet them at the dock were really diverse, with everything included. There were even lizardmen and camel people from the Desert Kingdom. They looked at their fellow countrymen and their expressions were quite complicated.

The goblin merchant Mizimi stood at the front of the welcoming team. When he saw Atayi, he laughed and said, "I have been waiting for you for a long time, my friend! My name is Mizimi, and His Majesty the King ordered me to be responsible for handing over the cabbage and black oil to you. Time is money, my friend, let's get started now."

Atayi nodded and thought: Zhang Jingyi didn't come in person? He only sent a goblin merchant. What a pity! I prepared a lot of black oil. I wanted to scare Zhang Jingyi, but now I can only scare this goblin.

He put on a proud expression and said, "Mr. Mizimi, our Desert Kingdom has brought a lot of black oil this time. I wonder if your country has prepared enough cabbages? If the cabbages prepared by your country are not enough, then..." Mizimi: "Oh, I was just about to say this. Our Magic Kingdom has brought a lot of cabbages this time. I wonder if the little black oil brought by your small boats is enough for us to exchange, my friend."

As soon as the two of them said this, the tension immediately rose.

Obviously, this is a matter of national pride for both countries.

It's a silent war!

As a guest from afar, Atayi had to make the first move. He turned around and said to the sailors on the ship, "Unload the cargo! Let our friends from the Magic Kingdom see the strength of our Desert Kingdom."

At the command, a large number of transport ships began to dock, and barrels of black oil were unloaded from the ships. The camel slaves were tall and strong. Each of them could carry a large barrel of black oil. They took big steps and walked ashore along the wooden planks on the boat. The wooden planks bore the weight of the camel slaves and the oil barrels, making a creaking sound.

One bucket, another bucket, and another bucket...

One boat, another boat, and another boat...

Soon, oil drums were piled up like a small mountain at the dock.

Atayi looked at the oil barrels with a proud expression on his face. He winked at Mizimi, and the meaning was obvious: "Look, I have so much black oil. Can you show me your cabbage?"

Mizimi chuckled and said, "Please follow me, my friend. We have a storage cave not far ahead. The elves have drawn a huge 'time slowing magic circle' at the entrance of the cave. There are a lot of cabbages in it. I guarantee you will be satisfied."

Atayi laughed secretly in his heart: I want to see how much cabbage you can take out.

He took confident steps and followed behind Mizumi.

The two soon came to a cave. There were runes on the entrance of the cave. The runes were glowing, forming a strange light curtain. Looking into the cave through the light curtain, one could see that there was a strange distortion in the time and space inside the cave.

In fact, it is not space-time that is distorted, but time that is distorted.

Time passes slower in the cave than outside!
An elf casually tapped the rune, the light disappeared, and the time in the cave returned to normal. Mizimi then said, "Okay, we can go in, my friend."

As he led the way into the cave, he said with a smile: "This cave is filled with cabbages brought by His Majesty the King. Our King has endless wealth, I guarantee you will be stunned."

Atayi thought to himself: I know that Zhang Jingyi has countless gems, but cabbage is not a gem, I really don’t believe how many you can have.

As soon as he thought of this, his eyes suddenly lit up. He saw that the cave was full of cabbages. Countless cabbages were packed in very tattered bamboo baskets. Basket after basket filled the entire cave. He, who had never seen many vegetables in his life, was instantly frozen.

Mizimi chuckled and said, "His Majesty the King said that there are five million kilograms of cabbage here. I wonder how much black oil the Desert Kingdom has to exchange for it, my friend!"

"Five... five million kilograms of cabbage?" Atayi fell to the ground with a plop. As a desert resident, he could not accept such shocking vegetables and lost his ability to speak...
