Chapter 147: Chapter 147: Transportation Business (Second Update! Ask for Various Tickets)

Only Gareth and Belmode remained silent. Gareth had seen Cruze's swordsmanship, and he had to admit that the human race's swordsmanship is not inferior to the elves' swordsmanship. In terms of mass production, it is far away from the dwarves by a dozen streets.

As Aslan said, in the past thousand years of development, the human race has not only firmly held the dominant position of the overlord, but the development of culture, art, sword and magic has surpassed the alien race by far.

Millie was silent for a while. It was obvious that Aslan's words had touched her a lot.

"Mr. Aslan! I really admire your knowledge." It took a long time for Millie to speak.

Aslan smiled.

"If you can guarantee your own safety, if you have the opportunity to visit human society, it may bring you great inspiration."

Millie nodded.

Gareth and Belmode also thought about it.

"Mr. Aslan! In order to celebrate the success of our first cooperation, I invite you to attend a banquet at the City Lord's Mansion."

After the business was over, Millie said very generously.

In this transaction, Aslan paid at least 200,000 tons of grain and tens of thousands of gold coins.

It can be said that the largest trade in the Windy City in the past ten years, if they can become a strategic partner with Aslan, then they don't need to worry about the economic blockade of the Ottoman Kingdom at all.

In the early morning of the next day, Aslan left in a hurry with his people, and even the enthusiasm of Dorut and the others could not stop Aslan's determination to leave.

Aslan did not intend to go to the North Wind Prairie for this trip, because his initial goal had been achieved, and what he needed now was to bring the first batch of traded grain.

As long as the number of transactions increases, the trust of the centaurs and grassland elves will be gained over time.

At that time, when Aslan proposes to buy a war horse again, he will not be suspected so quickly.

Moreover, Aslan initially judged that the locust plague in the North Wind Prairie should have just begun, and the centaur and elves didn't pay much attention to it. They exchanged a large amount of food for the sake of the war with the Ottoman Kingdom, and they were used to reserve food for war.

Aslan walked around the Windy City again, and successfully obtained information about the locust plague in the North Wind Prairie.

Now the locust plague is still mainly in the area of ​​the Ottoman Kingdom, and has not spread to the areas ruled by the centaurs and grassland elves.

"As expected!" Aslan muttered lightly.

"Gareth! Belmode! Do you have a deal?" Aslan suddenly slowed down his horse and said.

"what business?"

Belmode said decisively.

Gareth gave Belmode an annoyed look.

"Transport materials, you are responsible for the transportation of materials between Fengcheng and Changfeng Town."

Gareth's eyes lit up instantly, and he immediately saw the business opportunity, so he asked quickly.

"What about the cost of employment?"

"For one ton of cargo, I'll give you four hundred catties of grain or supplies of the same price." Aslan said decisively.

Belmode didn't agree immediately, he was really simple-minded in terms of arithmetic, so he was waiting for Gareth to make a judgment.

As for Gareth monopolizing the business, Belmode wasn't worried.

He can't count, but it doesn't mean he can't think. Aslan has already asked him for this kind of business, so he won't let Gareth take it all by himself, because there are competitors to ensure the maximum benefit and mutual supervision. .

The horses in Sino Continent are not only faster than those on Earth, but also more powerful. A horse-drawn cart can easily pull four or five tons of cargo, and it takes half a month to go back and forth.

"A draft horse consumes three catties of grain and more than twenty catties of fodder every day. With three grooms and guards, a horse-drawn cart consumes about twenty catties of grain a day, and 300 catties of grain in fifteen days. A Si Lord Lan, don’t you think this share is too low? After all, we still have to bear the risk of being attacked by other races.”

After making some calculations, Gareth said with a solemn face.

Belmode immediately nodded in agreement.

Although he still doesn't quite understand, since Gareth said so, he just agrees.

"That's your problem. You have to know that you have goods every time you go back and forth. In addition, as the scale increases, the number of guards can be reduced. Moreover, your two clans are big clans on the Changfeng Plain. I don't think anyone would dare to pull out their teeth. " said Aslan unhurriedly.

One-fifth of a ton of grain is lost in one trip. If it is not for the difficult roads in the Changfeng Plain and too many foreign races, Aslan would want to pull it himself, and he has also estimated that this transportation business is very big. Earning money, if the scale and quantity are large enough, can definitely become a stable source of income.

"You don't have to do it. I think there will be many people willing to do it on the Changfeng Plain." Aslan said slowly.

Gareth said after a moment of silence.

"Yes, this business can only be handed over to our two tribes, and other tribes are absolutely not allowed to intervene."

Aslan agreed without thinking.

He can't wait for Gareth and Belmode to do this.

Everyone in Changfeng Plain used to be equally poor, but now the lives of your two clans are getting better and better, and they are not allowed to live a better life together.

In the long run, accidents will definitely happen, even if Merlin is unparalleled in wisdom, he can't control the occurrence of this situation.

As the saying goes, don't worry about being few, but about unevenness.

For a long time, civil war would definitely break out in the Changfeng Plain, and the only thing Aslan had to do was to let things ferment as soon as possible.

On their way back, rumors had begun on the Changfeng Plain that the Gareth and Belmode tribes had hooked up with Lord Melo and obtained a large amount of food, especially the iron mines of the dwarves.

After the dwarves also found out about this, they were very angry, especially after receiving the 400,000 catties of grain compensation from Aslan, they were not happy, but even more angry, because they didn't know how to get it. Reis and Belmode each received 500,000 catties of grain.

Obviously, the two sold their dwarves in exchange for their long-term interests, and asked their dwarves to work for Lord Merlot.

This matter finally reached Master Merlin, and after he got the news, he also felt that the matter became difficult.

He already guessed what might happen in the future.

"That young Lord Melo actually has such a trick." Merlin thought about it and was terrified, but there was nothing he could do.

He is a recognized wise man on the Changfeng Plain, but he is not a ruler. He can mediate among them, but he cannot command any of the tribes.

If there is a king on the Changfeng Plain.

In order to stabilize the hearts of the people in the Changfeng Plain, the king will inevitably let the two clans contribute part of the food they get to stabilize people's hearts.

Today, I was complaining about the grain output in the Middle Ages and the real world output. Let me explain to you again that this is the world of swords and magic. There are bugs like magic, which are more powerful than genetically modified hybrids.

A lot of fur is processed into fur. Is it expensive in the eyes of the nobles to exchange the harvest of one mu of land for fur?

So please don't use the real world price comparison.
