Plane Merchant

Chapter 12 The person who can solve the problem

"Okay! Sir Knight! What I want to say is! These things may be for you! No! They are rare treasures for any warrior, but he is not within the scope of my transaction! What I need are treasures Do you understand treasures? They are gold jewels, rare treasures from heaven and earth, do you understand?"

Li Youran told Ellington helplessly, but Ellington was extremely annoyed and said, "What! Don't you think they are not precious enough? They can hold our lives on the battlefield."

"Yes! You can save your life! But they are worthless! No nobles are interested in them! If there are no treasures! I think I should go, Knight Ellington, I wish you good luck." Li Youran made a gesture to leave , he didn't believe that a lord only had this little thing.

"No no no! Wait a minute! Merchant! Uh, what's your name! I can't call you a merchant, it's too rude, well, I still have some treasures, those are originally for life, but if you can't pay taxes If you don’t, I’m probably dead, so come with me.”

Sure enough, Li Youran was stopped, but Li Youran rolled her eyes, and only then remembered to ask her name, how slow he is.

Following Ellington into another room, this time he really saw what he wanted to see, some jewelry that looked like this world and a small box, Ellington opened it carefully, and then looked There are some gold coins inside, which look like about a hundred and ten pieces.

"This is all I have! What do you want! I need to see what kind of food you can provide me. If I can't pass it, I won't change it." Ellington said.

But Li Youran has never paid attention to the box since he entered the room. Gold coins are attractive, but when he saw a huge gemstone on a tiara, his eyes immediately shone with gold, and of course he immediately suppressed it. I can't let Ellington know my purpose, otherwise I will have to pay more to get what I want.

"Oh! Of course! Everything is easy to talk about if you have gold coins! Come and see! This is the food I prepared, or you can ask for other things, but the price is not cheap." Li Youran tried hard not to look at the pile of jewelry, Instead, he concentrated on introducing his own food.

Looking at the bread and sausage that Li Youran took out, Ellington hesitated and said, "Is this bread and sausage?"

"Of course! These are bread and sausages! I wonder if these two can meet the requirements?" Li Youran asked with a smile.

"Ahem! I need to try it, I don't know if it will work." Ellington tried to make himself look calmer, what is this!White bread!That was the food that appeared during the banquet when he participated in the territorial war launched by the Duke with the viscount and won the banquet!Even Lord Viscount seldom eats it.

Li Youran opened the package and handed it to Ellington. Ellington calmly took the bread, and then took a bite. The fragrance from the bread mixed with the creamy aroma filled his mouth. , without chewing, the bread has already melted, and then flowed into the esophagus with the saliva I saw. This unprecedented experience made Ellington fascinated,
When had he, who had only eaten black bread, tried bread like this?At best, he would have people cook black bread into bread porridge. He usually ate barbecue, and the bread was too hard.

Since the bread is so delicious, there must be something unique about the sausage, but Ellington no longer wants to try it. He can be sure that it must be delicious. What he is worried about now is how much he can get for his little money. , Enough to pay grain tax.

"Not bad! I don't know how many you have! How much can I buy?" Ellington gave a good evaluation against his will.

"Master Knight, as long as you like it! I don't know how much you need for taxes? If there are too many, the money may not be enough!"

Li Youran turned into a profiteer at this moment!It is bound to wipe out Ellington's family fortune.

"How much tax do you need? Oh! Damn it! It depends on what the tax collectors mean! I hate them the most, a bunch of vampires who only know how to drain our money bags and food." Ellington had another headache, but had to Get the tax collectors.

After a while, a man dressed better than Ellington came over and said: "What's the matter! Have you received enough food taxes? Give it to me, and I will leave immediately. This place is so bad, even **nothing!"

Li Youran saw Ellington's fists clenched tightly, but said with a smile: "That's right, Lord Tax Collector! I found a merchant who is willing to sell me some food! I just don't know how much you need .”

He is not afraid of tax collectors, it should be said that he hates them!It's just that Viscount Velen is behind the tax collector!So he had to bow his head, because disrespect to the tax collectors who came to collect taxes was to challenge the majesty of the Viscount.

"Oh! You are so lucky! There are not many, and your supplies have already offset part of it, so you only need to pay another five hundred catties of grain this year! By the way, after the spring, the Viscount will start a war! You must call Ten soldiers, two archers, one knight, and of course you need to be responsible for the food yourself."

The words of the tax collector made Ellington fearful!He is a country knight, and his fiefdom is only a small village with only twenty families!Wouldn't it be his life to ask him to send out ten soldiers?

"This! How can I have ten soldiers!" Ellington was aggrieved!In order to make his subjects suffer less, he even deducted the tax on the donkey he pulls, so why is he required to serve in the military?

"No? Hehe! That's not impossible! You can pay more food! As long as you pay enough two thousand catties! You will be exempted from military service, and even you can rest. How about it! Do you have any?" the tax collector laughed.

He came with a mission, to collect as much food and grass as possible, and he really needs to start a war in the coming year!Is it just that they lack troops like the country knights that Ellington finally had?No!Although it has only been 200 years since the founding of the country!But the standing force of the empire has reached a terrifying 300 million, which is enough for the empire!It's just that such a force requires a huge supply of food and grass, so the little lords who only have knights will suffer, and the big noble empire can't afford it!The little nobles are different!do not give?Then deprive him of the title, killing monkeys is not enough, but killing chickens is always okay!

Poor Ellington is that poor chicken, the Viscount is taking him to the knife, there is food to talk about!You can fight if you don't want to!No food!Go to the front line, life and death matter!
Ellington had no choice but to look at Li Youran helplessly, and Li Youran smiled, two thousand catties?Just a ton!It's a good buy, but how much can you knock out?

"Two thousand catties! It's not that there is nothing! It's just that what will the knight exchange for? That little gold coin is not enough." Li Youran laughed in his heart, a god-given opportunity!I deserve to be rich!There are a lot of gold coins for two thousand catties of grain, not to mention that my goal is not gold coins.

"You profiteer! You can't buy two thousand catties of grain with 120 gold coins? Are you insulting my IQ?" Ellington was very angry. If it wasn't for the tax collector's urging, how could he buy grain with gold coins!This is the dumbest decision ever.

"No, no, no! Master Knight! You must know that business is about business! Rare things are more expensive! What? I don't understand, okay! It means what you lack is the most precious thing, if you don't have territory and life , then nothing is important, and I am a businessman, what I care about is profit, right?" Li Youran explained leisurely.

"Okay! What do you need! I'll give you everything. When will you give me the food I need?" Ellington became irritable, and he couldn't care about these anymore.

"Food is always available, do I need it! The previous room and the current room! How about it?" Li Youran wanted everything he wanted!This is also to cover up their own purpose.

"What, you greedy goblin! I'm going to kill you!" Ellington was furious!Reach out and draw your sword.

"I advise you to calm down. If this businessman is gone, I am afraid that you will not even be able to go to the front line, and your head will be chopped off by the viscount on charges of tax arrears." The tax collector at the side said quietly, with a cold tone.

no way!He really hates this place!But there is no way, unless Ellington says he doesn't have one!Or pay enough food, otherwise he won't be able to go there. Now he sincerely hopes that this businessman can help Ellington so that he can complete the task and go home.

Ellington shuddered, put his hand down and said, "Okay! Take it all! You can get the food whenever I see it." Ellington's tone was calm!But Li Youran felt a trace of killing intent!It looked like Ellington was going to do something.

Li Youran sneered, it seemed that he needed to frighten them, otherwise they would not trade quietly.

"No problem! I'll get it later." Then I muttered "Return" in my heart, and disappeared in front of Ellington and the publican as a ray of light.

In this case, Ellington and the tax collector were confused, and then Ellington said to the tax collector: "Have you seen it clearly? Is this a mage?"

"Not only is a mage, but also a powerful mage, and a mage with a huge family, I tell you that you'd better be smart, if you want to do something, I think the viscount will be happy to show it in front of the mage My own friendliness.” As a tax collector, he naturally knows what kind of character a knight like Ellington is. They may be knights, and it’s good to love the people and protect the weak, but they don’t include businessmen. In their view, businessmen are Dirty, greedy, mercenary, even if killed, it's nothing.

But the one in front of him is not like this. This is a mage. Although he doesn't know why a mage is a businessman, he is a mage. Who dares to mess with a mage on the mainland?Impatient to live!
