Lord of the Oasis

"Well, just come back."

Kant nodded, looked at Jocelyn with a beaming face, and asked with an unusual smile: "Looking at your appearance, it seems that you have encountered something worthy of joy."

"That's right." Jocelyn nodded: "We can maintain long-term trade with the tree people of Fagon Forest!" Without waiting for Kant to ask, he continued to report: "The elemental gems we had at the time were those crystal clear. Blue and yellow gems, I think you know it, Lord Kant."

"Of course I know the gems obtained after killing the elemental giant." Kant nodded.

"That's it!"

Jocelyn smiled and said, "Those treants need these elemental gems!"

"Huh?" Kant raised his brows slightly: "This is indeed gratifying news." But he still asked: "How is the specific value calculated? If I remember correctly, those tree people don't really care about gold and silver at all. Currency like this, or there is no concept of trade at all?"

"This is not a problem, as long as the most primitive barter is fine."

Jocelyn's mouth twitched.

For this trade and future trade, he can be said to be very confident: "The tree people in Fagon Forest can exchange all kinds of wild spices, such as cinnamon bark, black pepper, cumin grains and other expensive spices. existing!"

"Spice, very good." Kant nodded, this is indeed an expensive luxury.

This can indeed be used as an exchange item.

It's even cheaper for Kant, after all, he doesn't have much thought about those elemental gems.

Although it can be sold.

Just like Pender and Calradia.

The nobles who were keen on luxury would buy elemental gems as pure and flawless sapphires and topaz.

There are not many dinars that can be exchanged. If Kant can exchange for spices, even 10 elemental gems can be exchanged for 1 sachet of spices, and they can be sold to merchants in the Principality of Lions for a lot of golden eagles.

Elemental gems in Fagon Forest are spice, golden eagle, and dinar.

And after this hand down.

The value has doubled directly!

Spices are worth more than salt,

Because it represents identity.

If there is no spice at the banquet of the nobles, it is equivalent to a miser, and it will not be accepted by the mainstream aristocratic circles, and will even be ridiculed, because the social atmosphere is like this.

As a high-ranking noble, you must have a noble background.

Fine white salt represents this.

Spices that produce wonderful chemical reactions in the mouth are even more representative of this!

It can be said that in the Principality of Lions, even human nations, and even those alien tribes and kingdoms farther away, it can be regarded as a hard currency comparable to gold, a luxury that can be directly purchased with a golden eagle!

Spices are of great value!

"grown ups."

Jocelyn said: "The exchange price is indeed rich."

He paused and continued to report: "In the eyes of these tree people, earth element gems and water element gems can bring them an alternative enjoyment, just like when we eat, we can obtain supplies that are beneficial to the body."

"They are equal to half an elemental creature, which is normal." Kant nodded, not surprised by this.

"certainly."

Jocelyn nodded: "So their transaction price is, 1 elemental gem can be exchanged for 1 sachet of spices."

"So much?" Kant raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised.

"uh-huh."

Jocelyn said helplessly: "Of course, this is really a sachet of spices." Then he took out the spices from this transaction in his arms, fist-sized, with a spicy smell: "This is 1 sachet Black pepper, picked by the treemen, they're not stupid actually."

1 element gem is exchanged for 1 sachet of spice, this transaction is indeed not a huge profit.

But Kant doesn't care.

Elemental gems don't do much for him.

But even this small bag of spices, like this black pepper, is definitely worth 10 golden eagles, or 1,000 large silver coins, in the male lion dukedom, which is even more expensive than the trade in white salt!

"It just couldn't last."

Kant frowned slightly.

At present, the source of his elemental gems is obtained by relying on those two pages of wonders.

About 7 earth element giants and water element giants can be summoned every week. After killing these elemental creatures, elemental gems can be obtained.

This is not without precedent.

Elemental gems are also gems, hard enough but less powerful.

If the sharp and hard conical arrow is a little deeper, the arrow can easily pierce the elemental gem.

Although it will not be broken into gems and scum, there are traces of cracking, and it can definitely affect the stability of the internal elements. Even if there is no tree person to inform Kant, you can guess that no one wants broken materials.

But even so, there are only about 15 elemental gems that can be produced every week.

The exchange of golden eagle is 150 pieces.

That's 15,000 in exchange for dinars!

Turn around, the price of 15 elemental gems has doubled directly!

To know that it is only sold as a luxury gem for decoration, the price given by the nobles of Calradia and Pande is only 250 dinars for a crystal clear top element gem.

And this kind of crystal clear top element gemstone is not encountered every time.

"15,000 dinars per week."

Kant tapped the table with his fingers.

After a little thought, he said to Jocelyn after a while: "Continue to maintain good trade exchanges with the tree people in Fagon Forest. Although the money is small, building a good relationship with them is the most important thing."

"clear."

Jocelyn nodded.

Of course, the current Kant does not like 15,000 dinars per week.

If it is only about the salt trade, then his monthly income can reach 150,000+ dinars, which is more than 100,000. Even if it is all filled into town construction, he can pile up half a city.

For example, the investment in the city of "Aaron" was only 350,000 dinars.

Although small.

But it is indeed a city.

Of course, the next step is to have a good relationship with the tree people. If you can hire these tree people, it will be the best. Even if you can't hire them, it's good to get the precious natural spring that these tree people have.

The sentry oasis has been severely damaged, the vegetation has been trampled, and even the date palm trees have been damaged.

It will wither if left unattended.

Withered plants can be revived by adding the Natural Fountain.

It has to be said that this is the magic of consumption-type strange objects, which is comparable to the power of regularity.

"It's good to stabilize for now."

Kant came to a conclusion.

What is needed now is indeed stability, the means to digest the fruits of victory as soon as possible, and at the same time speed up the entry into the male lion dukedom. The most important thing is the ancient passage under the city of "Aaron", which should also come in handy.

You can go directly to the Reisniston River and go straight to the main point of the Principality of Lions!

It is also on the verge of the Silver Plate Kingdom.

Moreover, this river also communicates with other human kingdoms.

Great strategic sense!

Of course, Kant had ideas about this river, especially after repelling the undead invasion troops from the south, he had a deeper idea of ​​​​the lion principality and the human kingdoms.

Not for the occupation of territory, but for dinars.

This is Kant's purpose.

The land is nothing to him, in fact, there is a system, and he does not need land.

Even the output of the land, the wealth of those nobles, is only a concept for Kant, only the dinar is real, because only this currency can be systematically recognized.

Dinars are required to recruit troops and buy supplies.

So Kant needs dinars.

The only thing in the world that can be exchanged for dinars on a large scale is gold.

Therefore, he needs to trade, just like the colonies that appeared in the modern times on the earth in the previous life, plundering all the economies in the colonies, and obtaining a large amount of gold for the main force, that is, Kant, and converting them into dinars.

Only the dinar can strengthen Kant.

so-called soldiers.

so-called material.

In fact, it can be obtained in the world of riding and cutting with dinars!

This led Kant to not take the supply of this world seriously, and really regarded this world as a colony that could be plundered at will, especially the plundering economy, that is, gold!

"By the way, since you're back, let Manid sort out the preparations for the salt trade quickly."

Kant ordered: "Tomorrow, I will set off with him to the central station."

"That's what it should be." Jocelyn shrugged: "Those businessmen in the Principality of Lions, probably have to wait."

The undead have blocked the castle "Drehem" for two weeks.

That would amount to a two-week break in the salt trade.

But for those businessmen who depend on Kant for a living, it means that the financial road has been cut off for two weeks. If it lasts for too long, it is estimated that these businessmen who are used to high profits will be furious!

They came all the way to the Nalen Desert to make money.

Good now.

The salt camels that used to appear every week disappeared.

If they want to go deeper into the desert, Rolf, the commander of the local garrison, will never allow them to go in.

If you are not in a hurry, it is absolutely impossible. It is estimated that those businessmen will still unite and try to negotiate with Rolfe. After all, they do not rely solely on themselves, but also represent the nobles behind them!

Sentinel Oasis has calmed down.

The current "Drehem" castle just needs to be vigilant.

Kant will not bring too many troops to the central station.

But there are still high-end arms.

Because going to the central station is not the purpose, he still has to go to the Stone Pass to meet the Fatis who has been stationed there for more than 2 months, and send a signal by the way to let those nobles who want to go further know the benefits of cooperation.

Planning for the lion Principality is on the agenda.

Now Kant has enough troops.

The strength is also sufficient.

It is very simple for Kant to annex the Principality of Lions, or to support agents, to completely control the business of this Principality, and turn it into a source of continuous production of golden eagles.

Especially the Anzi buried in advance, Borg from East County, he also intends to make contact.

Dark son is to use.

Now.

it's time.
