(Slightly adjust the relationship between Lady Annabelle and Baron Iman Owen at the end of the previous chapter)
Constantinople has the largest fire phosphorus ammunition workshop in Bena Province. This firearms workshop was not built in the city, but on the east coast of Yuewan Lake under the stone cliff. The entire Yuewan Lake is designated as a recreational area.
In the military area of Stantinoburg, the fire phosphorus bombs produced here are not only provided to the Bena Legion and the private legions of the lords in the province, but also sold to lords in other provinces.
Although the rainy season has passed, the road is still bumpy and not so easy to walk, and the magic caravan is a little bumpy on the forest road.
Constantinople is located in a large forest area, surrounded by maple forests all over the mountains. These forest lands are divided like pizza by spreading forest roads.
This is a very important transportation hub in the interior of Bena Province.
Lady Annabelle's maid led Suldak onto a magic caravan and went directly out of the city to a large workshop under Yuewan Lake.
From the outside, this workshop looks like a lumberyard built by the lake. On the moss-covered grassland by the lake, there is a row of large warehouses. If the maid hadn't told him, it would be Constantinople.
Suldak may have always thought that the firearms workshop was a row of warehouses for storing wood.
From the outside, there seemed to be no guards at the gate of the workshop, but the magic caravan parked in front of the gate. Four guards immediately came out of the gatehouse to inspect the magic caravan. Annabelle's maid handed over a badge
He handed it over, stuck his head out of the car window, and said to the guard at the door: "I want to see Iman Owen."
The guard at the door did not let him go, but stood next to the magic caravan and said to the maid: "Please wait a moment, I will pass the news to Lord Iman Owen."
The maid knew this would happen, so she nodded slightly and said nothing more.
The coachman skillfully drove the magic caravan to a patch of grass. Staghorn grass grew on the slopes. When the wheels ran over it, the entire wheels were dyed green and left two deep ruts.
In fact, it didn't make Surdak wait too long. A young nobleman came out of the workshop.
The maid asked Surdak to step out of the carriage, and first saluted the young nobleman respectfully. The young nobleman was familiar with the maid, but he just waved his hand casually, glanced at Surdak, and asked the maid: "Why are you here?"
Come to me anytime, is there anything urgent?"
"Lord Iman, my wife asked me to bring Baron Surdak here." The maid introduced Iman Owen, and then said to Surdak: "Baron Surdak, this is Iman Owen.
Baron, head of Constantine's workshop, son of Lady Annabella."
Surdak didn't expect that Lady Annabelle, who looked so young, actually had such an old son.
Iman Owen glanced at Suldak with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
Surdak knew that he should come out to explain the situation at this time, so he said to Iman Owen: "Baron Iman, the thing is like this, I discovered a sulfur mine in the territory, this time I came to Constantinople
Constantinople, I just want to solve some sulfur ore sales problems. I heard from my friends that there are workshops in Constantinople that need sulfur ore. I took the liberty to come here this time to see if you need sulfur ore here."
Iman just nodded slightly. He had a pair of green eyes that looked as beautiful as Hathaway's. He looked at Suldak seriously. Seeing that Suldak's eyes were calm and did not flinch at all, he continued to ask.
: "Are you from Halanza?"
"Yes." Suldak said.
Iman took two steps with his head lowered, then turned around and asked Suldak: "Oh, my mother doesn't know many people in Helensa City. Are you a relative of Mrs. Mariana, or do you know Dorothy?"
Mrs. West Newman?”
"I know Mrs. Mariana Christie." Suldak said.
"It's really like that..." Iman smiled a little weirdly, and his expression was like that of Suldak, who was a pretty boy. However, his somewhat gloomy face became much more friendly, and he immediately became very active and enthusiastic.
Said to Surdak:
"I may not be able to help you if you want to buy fire phosphorus bombs. There is not much stock of fire phosphorus bombs now, and they have to be used by Bena's main army, so the number of fire phosphorus bombs that can be distributed is limited. Many lords want to use them in the army.
I need some equipment inside. Now the orders from the workshop have been scheduled until next spring. I really have no choice..."
Iman Owen changed his tone and said:
"But if you want to sell sulfur ore, as long as the quality is acceptable, you can come to me directly at the workshop in the future."
Iman Owen boarded the magic caravan and asked Surdak to come up. He smiled and asked Surdak:
"Baron Suldak, can you show me the mineral sample you brought?"
"Of course." After Surdak said that, he took out a few pieces of sulfur ore from his magic belt bag and placed them on the folding table of indigo wood inside the carriage.
Iman Owen picked up a piece of sulfur ore, first brought it to his nose and sniffed it carefully, then raised the sulfur ore, looked at the color against the sun, took out a small hammer and knocked on the sulfur ore.
Take a small piece and crush it gently in a silver tray. Use your thumb to feel for the gravel in the sulfur mine in the silver tray.
"There are some impurities, but overall it's not bad." Iman Owen raised his head and said to Suldak: "As long as it's sulfur ore of this quality, you can send it to us as much as you want."
When looking at the ore, his eyes were very focused.
Then he raised his head to discuss the price with Suldak, and his eyes became very shrewd: "As for the price...just follow the current market purchase price!"
He tentatively said something, and seeing that Suldak had no objection, he added:
"Currently, the price of sulfur ore arriving in Constantinople is 5 silver and 40 copper plates/pound, but this price may fluctuate. As you know the current market situation, the entire magic material market is increasing in price."
He glanced at Suldak, waiting for him to speak.
"That's fair," Suldak said.
Iman Irving breathed a sigh of relief. What he was most afraid of was that the Baron Surdak in front of him wanted to raise the price of the sulfur mine. Hearing that Surdak felt that the price he proposed was very reasonable, Iman Irving felt that
This matter must be settled immediately, so he said: "Okay, I can sign an agreement of intent with you, and when your sulfur ore arrives in Constantinople, just have someone come to me here with the purchase agreement."
"Can."
Suldak readily agreed.
Iman Owen was in the magic caravan at the entrance of the workshop. He took out a piece of parchment from the drawer of the car and quickly drafted a letter of intent. The two of them signed their names on the parchment.
After talking about business, Iman Owen put a smile on his face and said to Suldak: "Baron Suldak, if this is your first time coming to Constantinople, I can take you around the city.
Try our specialties here…”
"If I have the opportunity in the future, I would like to return to Halanza City as soon as possible to organize the supply of goods!" Surdak refused.
Iman Owen did not persuade, but just greeted the coachman on the driver's seat and said directly: "Then I will take you back to the hotel."
The carriage slowly drove away from the workshop in Yuewan Lake. Regardless of Iman Owen's prejudice against him, this young nobleman was quite considerate in his work.
…
On the main street of Constantinople, no matter where this magic caravan with the silver emblem of the Owen family on its carriage goes, the surrounding vehicles, horses and pedestrians will actively move out of the way so that this magic caravan can travel unimpeded.
Surdak had never seen such a privileged vehicle in the city of Helensa, and even the current governor of the city, Bernard Christie, did not have this honor.
After returning to the hotel and settling the funds for the room, Baron Iman Owen insisted on sending Suldak out of the city.
Just when the magic caravan was about to leave the city, a knight rode a green-scaled horse parallel to the magic caravan. Behind him were two attendants. The tall green-scaled horse just made him a little taller than the carriage window. The knight slightly
He bent over and leaned against the window glass to look inside. When he saw Suldak and Iman Owen in the carriage, he was slightly startled and asked through the window:
"Iman! Iman...why are you sitting in the car?"
Iman Owen waved his hand towards the knight, opened the car window, and said to the knight outside the car window:
"My friend is leaving Constantinople, and I want to see him off. This is Jude, and this is Suldak!"
The knight named Jude looked at Suldak seriously and said, "I seem to have seen you somewhere. Let me think about it..."
Surdak looked at the knight outside the window with a suspicious look on his face, wondering how he could possibly know the knight here in Constantinople, which he had never been to before.
At this time, a guard behind Jude came to his ear and reminded Jude:
"Boss, have you forgotten? When we were in Wozhimara City, you received treatment from Knight Surdak. You injured your ribs at that time. The broken ribs stabbed the right lung lobe. You were seriously injured at the time.
Seriously, this knight of Surdak accepted a hell dog head and cured your injury."
The knight suddenly thought about it, and when he looked at Suldak again, he was quite excited and said proactively:
"You are the Knight of Surdak from the Hellanza Guard Camp...oh no, Baron Surdak..."
He immediately changed his mind when he saw the noble badge on Surdak's chest, and then very enthusiastically invited Surdak to stay in Constantinople for a few more days, giving him a chance to express his gratitude, but Surdak was
Ke politely declined.
Baron Iman Owen didn't expect that Jude and Suldak actually knew each other, and it seemed that Jude owed Suldak a favor.
When the magic caravan passed the city gate, Jude shouted excitedly to a group of guard battalion knights patrolling the city gate: "Hey, come and see who is coming to our Constantinople, it's Sur
Knight Dark... Oh, Baron! Haven't you two always wanted to thank me in person? Now is your chance!"
"Is Knight Surdak here?"
Someone among a group of guard knights who happened to be patrolling at the city gate shouted...
