Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 224: Finally reached an agreement
Politics is essentially a junk of compromise. It's not very good, but it's recyclable.

Although Lowry didn't understand or comprehend it, he had heard such words before.

Of course, Lori also understood that there was more than one nobleman following Duke Schroeder, Count Gezar, and the White Dragon King finally chose him to attack because of Lori.

His Majesty the King has always been very fluent in using favors.

But, even if it was incidental, there is indeed an element of "human feelings".

Lowry didn't think that it had nothing to do with him... Although he raised a group of wolves, he was not really an ungrateful person.

However, this also means that Lowry is getting deeper and deeper into the White Dragon King's camp.

But, so what?

Is there anything else in this world that could make Lowry choose to betray the King of the North?
His silent but loyal mother to the White Dragon King, his teacher to whom the White Dragon King even entrusted his life, and his noble family background, all made it impossible for Lowry to change his mind easily.

It's just that his stance is clearer and more resolute, and he doesn't even need to do anything...Lowry wouldn't be unwilling to do even such a small thing.

Sitting on the bay window, Lori quietly glanced at the beautiful estate on the hill.

The reply came quickly.

"Of course, if possible, I would like to try the Wind Wolf Caravan." He said with a smile, "By the way, where is the location of the Royal Chamber of Commerce in the capital?"

The White Dragon King burst out laughing.

Lowry really never suffers a loss.

His Wind Wolf Caravan is bound to cause a stir.

However, if the first trading partner was a caravan directly under the jurisdiction of him, the King of the North, those people would at most dare to refuse to trade with Lori, but they would never dare to bring this matter up in public.

And Lowry never cares about people cursing him behind his back.

After all, he has been used to it since he was a child.

Moreover, in Lowry's eyes, not everyone is qualified to negotiate a deal with him.

He was too lazy to deal with so many people who overestimated their abilities.

Therefore, when his first transaction was with the King of the North, most people should have understood that they were only qualified to win the favor of Baron Gezaar... and they could not see the Wind Wolf whenever they wanted.

However, the White Dragon King now has a feeling that Lori is really a natural born wizard.

His personality, which is that no matter what others say or do, as long as they don't come to bother me, don't say nonsense to me in public, and don't ask me to explain anything, is really not awkward among mages.

But on the noble side, it's a bit too "independent".

No noble can survive independently from the whole... A single tree, no matter how tall and strong it is, is most likely to be struck by lightning.

However, this is normal for mages. Their attitude towards being struck by lightning is generally that the more the better.

Although he had already flown around in his head with Ruskania, the White Dragon King quickly made a decision: "If you want, of course it's fine.

But, Lowry, for the first trade, you plan to…"

“I have hundreds of tons of fresh rabbit in my warehouse.”

"What?" King White Dragon suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

"Rabbit, I'm kind. Even though I cleaned out the internal organs, the skin is still there. It's enough for you to buy winter clothes for your own guard team," Lowry replied calmly.

The White Dragon King just thought Lowry was talking nonsense.

Are the rabbits the key question?
How many people would he have to hire to disassemble these rabbits!
and many more……

The White Dragon King said thoughtfully, "You know I'm going to start with Pat, right?"

"Does this require further thought?" Lori answered simply, "Who else knows better than them how to drive the Church of Storms crazy?"

King White Dragon sighed silently and realized that he really had to do this losing business.

Of course, he could also choose to go find rabbits himself... There was of course a forest full of rabbits near the royal capital.

However, several hundred tons was definitely not something he could accumulate in a short period of time.

However, the White Dragon King thought about it the other way around...Lori has attracted almost all the large birds from the northern border in the past few years, and every town and village of his has a small restaurant selling extremely cheap rabbit meat pies.

And then, he was able to save so many rabbits!

If all this is equated with money...then how much money did he lose?

"Lori, do you still have money?" King White Dragon couldn't help but ask, but he soon felt something was wrong and immediately added, "How much do you plan to sell those rabbits to me?"

"My purchase price," Lowry replied calmly, "This is the reserve price.

Don't worry about whether I have money or not. I can offset the cost with my time. With your discount promotion, I can make back a little bit... enough for me to keep rabbits for another two years."

King Bailong was a little confused.

But there were only so many commercial activities in Lowry's territory, so he guessed it quickly: "Your rabbit pie? How is that possible!"

"You are the one who doesn't understand." Lori sneered, "No matter how cheap rabbit meat is, it is still meat.

At least a rabbit is worth 10 kilograms of rye, right?
Rabbit meat patties are made from rye, rabbit and vegetable oil, and at most a little salt and onions are added, but the price is the same as rabbit meat... As long as one-tenth of my subjects think that cooking is not as cost-effective as buying these rabbit meat patties, then given enough time, I can offset the cost.

Moreover, if the rabbit meat patties are soaked in oil, they can be kept fresh for a month even in the summer. The caravans that come to my territory will buy a lot of them... If I sell them to them, I will definitely add some gas money."

King Bailong seemed dazed after hearing what he heard.

Although he had worked hard outside before, it was still difficult for him to get in touch with such low-level things, so he had no idea about the cost calculation involved.

However, he also didn't think Lowry would deceive him on this point.

After pondering for a long time, the White Dragon King asked in confusion: "Then why do the common people always say that selling food on the street can't support themselves?"

Lori couldn't help laughing: "Have I confused your mind?

It’s impossible for others to make money like me!

Not to mention that the rye onions and rapeseed all come from my own fields, so the cost can be kept to a minimum. It's such a simple matter.

The most fundamental reason is that I am a lord and I run a small business in my own territory, so I don’t need to pay taxes.”

Civilians may also receive some inexplicable "protection fees"!

The White Dragon King slapped his forehead helplessly: "I really am...

Because it was so unbelievable, I was confused for a moment.

Indeed, no one can replicate what you do.”

Neither can the nobles.

After all, no noble would bother with such a small business.

All Lowry wants is to avoid losing money... and all of this is based on the basic requirement of "must acquire Rabbit", and others will not learn from him.

King White Dragon took a deep breath and carefully calculated the price given by Lori.

No matter how cheap something is, if the quantity reaches a certain level, it will also amount to a huge sum of money.

The price Lowry paid for the rabbits was not high. If one removed the weight of the internal organs, it was indeed a very low price.

Even if Lowry made it so clear, the White Dragon King would not lower the price just because he had already recovered part of his investment.

Their transaction was never about the rabbits themselves.

As for whether Lowry wanted to clear the warehouse...even if Lowry was very good at making space equipment, those hundreds of tons of rabbits were really too many, or he had some other ideas, there was no need to weigh the real purpose of these rabbits.

The most important thing about this matter is that it is both absurd and reasonable.

To outsiders, no matter how shocking so many rabbits were, they would only think that it was just a casual act of King White Dragon and Baron Gezar in targeting Count Gezar.

After all, most of the staff in King White Dragon’s Chamber of Commerce are just the family members of his subordinates, and there are also many people hired from nowhere.

So, it is impossible to keep the price of these rabbits a secret.

According to the price given by Lori, it was almost like buying rabbit skin and getting meat for free. It was obvious that this was not a particularly formal business transaction.

The only problem is quantity.

Then, in order to process these rabbits, the Chamber of Commerce will inevitably hire a large number of low-level people to skin them and take out the rabbit meat.

It is even possible that rabbit meat was used as the price for hiring them.

Only in this way can everything be cleaned up as quickly as possible.

In Guodu, as long as you employ more than 100 low-level people, there will definitely be Pat's followers among them.

There is no need to consider this... Based on the King's Chamber of Commerce's usual style, they will have to find at least three or four hundred people.

All the methods of sending messages that King White Dragon had considered were simply child's play in front of these hundreds of tons of rabbits.

Even Pat himself could have easily gotten in on the act.

King Bailong suddenly sighed: “Lori, it would be great if you could come to the capital.

You are born to play with people's hearts."

Lori sneered: "I can see it clearly because I have always stayed out of it, including Count Gezar.

If you really find yourself in this situation, who would not be blinded by interests?

Don't say such nonsense, Your Majesty."

The White Dragon King's sigh this time was sincere: "Mage, this is really hard to deal with!"

Then he turned the subject back to the most important point: “How is Ruth Kania doing?
Is that idiot treating her well?"

"A very idle expectant mother." Lori asked puzzledly, "Don't you communicate with Ruth Kania every day?"

The White Dragon King shook his head and smiled: "I really don't know how you grew up to be like this.

He is always particularly perceptive in areas that others would not expect, but seems to be lacking in some common sense.

How can a person who is immersed in love see clearly whether he is happy or not? "
