There are a large number of magic airships near the airport terminal of Bena City every day. Recently, various regions in Bena Province have seemed a little restless. The House of Representatives of Bena Province has frequently mobilized the armies of lords from various regions in an attempt to suppress the riots in various regions. This has also caused various regions to
Supplies are mobilized frequently, and land routes are difficult to travel in winter. Although the magic airship transportation cost at the airport is very high, it is more reliable and efficient than land routes.
In addition, before the arrival of spring every year, a large amount of materials will be shipped in from the southern provinces, which makes the airport terminal of Bena City operate at full capacity.
By the time the magic airship that Surdak was riding arrived at Bena City, the airport terminal was even busier than ever. There was actually a row of airships waiting to enter the airport.
As the capital of the province of Bena, Bena City is not only the political and commercial center of the province, but there are also a large number of garrisons stationed around Bena City. The capitals of other provinces in the Green Empire are similar, with a large number of troops stationed here.
.
There are many garrisons outside Bena City, and some temporary military stations have been created to receive missions. With the recruitment order in Suldak's hand, the cavalry battalion can live in the military station, so there is no need to find another place to live. The conditions of the military station are only
It's just a little better than setting up a tent. The biggest advantage is that it provides two meals a day and hot water, so you can take a shower. There is also a large playground and horse pen in the military station.
Suldak knew that once he reported to Marquis Luther's regiment, the cavalry battalion would be incorporated into the regiment. It would be difficult to have free time, so several private matters in Bena City must be completed first.
Just after noon, Andrew stayed in the cavalry camp. Suldak took Samira, Selina and Xigna to hire a magic caravan outside the military station and drove into Bena City without any hindrance.
Although Samira had been to Bena City once, she had almost no time to appreciate this prosperous big city.
Although she was just passing through Bena City this time, her mood when riding a magic caravan into the city was completely different from last time. She casually looked at the shops on both sides of the street. The wide street was crowded with carriages, and a team of guards camped.
Knights wearing full armor walked slowly along the street, maintaining order on the street.
After the magic caravan entered the city, it walked along the avenue for seven streets and turned at the intersection in front, heading towards the Free Magic Market located in the Magic District.
Selena and Signa sat side by side. They were a little nervous when the magic caravan first drove into Bena City. Although there were many magicians in Bena City, they found that the magicians on the street were in a hurry.
After coming out of the store, he seldom looked around. He basically quickly got into the magic caravan and drove away from the store quickly.
Signa bravely opened the car window and let the outside air in.
Selena raised the curtains and looked towards the long street, where there were many people walking on the street.
…
The province of Bena is located in the middle of the Green Empire, and March is the beginning of spring.
The street trees on the streets of Bena City have sprouted new green buds. In the urban afternoon, women have dared to wear long knitted skirts with open collars and walked onto the streets. Some young girls even dared to show off their pink and white lotus-like arms.
and calves, walking together on the long street.
Selena hugged Xigna and looked at the women on the street with envy. No one in Wall Village dared to dress like this.
The magic caravan drove into the edge of the Free Magic Market. It was very lively here. The magic caravan could only move forward at a very slow speed. There were some food stalls on the roadside with fragrant smells. The Bena people like to eat fried bagels and potatoes.
Tiao, the food at the food stall next to the market is very cheap. You can buy a pancake bigger than Xigna's face for three copper coins. The boiling oil pan is frying food almost continuously.
People crowded together, holding coins in their hands and handing them out.
There are also large round-bellied iron pots set up in some small stalls. The braised meat juice inside is exuding a strong aroma, and pieces of crispy bone-in mutton are piled inside. The meat here is more expensive. If you take out a silver coin, you can
Bought a full plate.
Put the crispy mutton on a plate, pour a spoonful of fragrant gravy, sprinkle some chive leaves, and spoon a spoonful of soft chickpeas.
Finally, the stall owner was able to take out two crispy scones from the oven.
Suldak took Xigna out of the magic caravan and took everyone to buy two large plates of bone-in mutton from a stall in the corner. He also went to another stall to buy a fried fish and let everyone fill their stomachs first.
After that, he bought three cups of sweet and sour pomegranate juice for Xigna and Samira Selina next to the pomegranate stall, and then took the three girls into the bustling free magic market.
The Free Magic Market is located in a square. There are almost some magic shops on both sides of the street. There are hundreds of stalls in the entire square. Sandor's butcher shop is in the free market. It is usually full of magic shops.
Buy some fresh meat from low-level World of Warcraft such as Mora fish and Demonic Antelope meat.
Several butcher stalls are almost lined up together, and the other stalls are almost filled with all kinds of low-level monster meat. Only Sander's stall has almost nothing on the meat table except for a few dried Mora fish hanging on it.
No.
People who can afford to eat Warcraft meat are either rich or noble. Most of the people responsible for selling meat are housekeepers and cooks. When they pass by Shan De's stall, they will always ask Shan De: "Has the goods not arrived yet?
"
Sande lay on the wicker chair like a salted fish, shaking his head with a look of despair.
Surdak and Sander agreed to send Warcraft fresh meat to Bena City via a magic airship every month. Fortunately, last month, a whole magic box of salamander meat arrived as scheduled, although Sander planned to sell it in limited quantities every day.
Some.
Even so, it only lasted half a month before it was sold out.
But starting from the second month, there was no news from Helensa. Until March, Sande still failed to receive the goods from Helensa City. Sande has been thinking about it these days.
, if there is no news again, buy a ferry ticket and fly to Helensa City to have a look there.
"Sander! If you ask me, you can put some other monster meat or other things on the table. No matter what you do, it's better than lying around doing nothing!" The stall owner of the neighbor's shop said very familiarly.
Sande rubbed his somewhat stiff cheeks with both hands and said, "I'll wait."
The owner of a stall selling animal bones diagonally across the stall said with a smile: "Sander, let me tell you, it's empty if you see it. Otherwise, lend me some animal bones and I'll share the money you make."
Stall fee…”
"That's not possible. I specialize in animal meat here. If I sell animal bones, people will think I've changed my career!" Sander lazily turned over and said.
Several stall owners were chatting away, and then they saw Brunei, the manager of Rossi Fur Trading Company, standing in the narrow aisle. Suldak's transaction with Rossi Fur Trading Company in Bena City was also done by Shan.
Del came to take charge. Sande had already traded with the Brunei manager once, but the transaction that was supposed to take place last month had been delayed until the beginning of this month. There was still no news. The Brunei manager seemed a little anxious now.
He walked to the butcher stall and asked anxiously: "Sander, is there any news from Baron Suldak?"
"Not yet... Manager Brunei, if there is no news in the next few days, I will go to Helensa City." Sande saw the manager of Brunei coming to the door in person, so he had to sit up from the wicker chair and responded very formally.
.
The Brunei manager wiped his smooth forehead with a handkerchief. Although the weather was still a bit cold, he felt a trace of cold sweat on his forehead.
"If you have any news, remember to tell me!" The Brunei manager only said this, then waved to Sander and planned to leave.
Sander raised his head and glanced at the Brunei manager, but saw a young man dressed as an aristocrat next to the Brunei manager and said with a gloomy face: "Could it be that Baron Suldak gave us a big deal? There is no follow-up transaction at all."
It’s just that there is no shadow, huh!”
The Brunei manager just signed an order for salamander leather armor. The company's stock of salamander skins is only enough to complete half of the order. Seeing the delivery date approaching, I feel very anxious and impatient. It's just that the company needs a source of such high-grade leather.
, worried about being heard by Sander and reaching the ears of Baron Surdak, so he did not dare to speak casually like Harvey Gofello, and only told some of the situations he knew: "Master Harvey, maybe Surdak
Baron Dark has been restrained by something. I heard that the Luther family's legions have been mobilized frequently recently. Could it be related to this matter?"
Harvey Gophero squinted his eyes, thinking that he had met Beatrice a few days ago and could not get any precise information from her, so he complained very rudely to the Brunei manager:
"That is to say, the stubborn Beatrice is willing to believe him! He said that five salamander leathers a month are out of stock in only the third month..."
The two of them chatted while walking, without deliberately lowering their conversation voices.
There were many people in the Free Magic Market. The two of them talked while walking without paying much attention to the pedestrians around them.
"Sorry, the goods this time are a bit late. I have been leading troops to eliminate bandit groups in the desert last month, and I was unable to deliver the fresh meat and leather in time."
I heard someone say this not far away, and the voice seemed familiar.
The Brunei manager quickly raised his head and saw Suldak standing in front of the stall with a calm expression, holding a little girl of five or six years old in his hand. The little girl was holding a glass of pomegranate juice and a pair of black eyes.
The big, bright eyes looked over.
The Brunei manager opened his mouth and looked at Baron Suldak walking over step by step. He wanted to kick Harvey Gophero away from him.
Unlucky crow's mouth...
"Baron Surdak, you are here... Oh! This matter is my responsibility." The Brunei manager quickly stepped forward and explained to Surdak.
Suldak glanced at Harvey, who looked embarrassed, and said to the Brunei manager: "If I have the opportunity to come to Bena City this time, I will bring the salamander skin directly here."
The Brunei manager quickly said respectfully: "Looking at what you said, I know you must be a little busy recently. You shouldn't be so anxious originally. It's just that we signed a supply and sales contract for leather armor substrates last month, and it's about to arrive.
It’s due.”
There are many people in the magic market. Suldak and the Brunei manager are standing in the middle of the road talking, which will block the way of other people.
Suldak then dragged the Brunei manager back to Sander's butcher shop.
When Sander saw Suldak suddenly appear, he jumped up from the wicker chair and welcomed several people into the aggrieved wooden room of the butcher shop.
Suldak didn't care much and asked the Brunei manager and Harvey Gophero to sit down on the bench.
The little girl, on the other hand, looked curiously at the dried Mora fish hanging on the hook, with surprise written all over her face.
Surdak waved his hand for Sander to sit down and asked: "To settle the last transaction, Manager Brunei, do you plan to use magic crystals or gold coins?"
"Let's take gold coins. Magic crystals have depreciated very quickly in recent times." Brunei took out a bag of gold coins that he had prepared and handed it to Suldak.
Surdak pulled out a magic-sealing box from his magic belt bag and opened the lid. Inside, there were five completely peeled salamander skins.
As the manager of Rossi Leather Company, it is impossible for Brunei not to know about the Gofilo family.
Seeing that Suldak didn't care about what Harvey Gofilo just said and successfully completed the transaction, the Brunei manager felt relieved.
On the side, Xander was busy in the narrow wooden house. Although this wooden house was small, it was fully equipped with everything. He made a few cups of black tea for everyone, and then sat down happily, but he refrained from asking about the ingredients for the salamander.
thing.
After counting the gold coins, Surdak said again: "By the way, Manager Brunei, does Rossi Trading Company purchase low-level Warcraft leather?"
"Low-level Warcraft leather? With that kind of property?" Brunei was slightly startled and asked casually.
After thinking about it, I felt relieved. Since people can hunt salamanders stably, they can naturally hunt some low-level monsters.
"Wind Wolf Skin." Surdak said.
The Brunei manager replied without thinking: "That's possible, but the leather of this low-level monster cannot be used to make magic pattern structures. It can only be used for ordinary leather armor and magic pattern paper, so the price is very low.
The profits are also very thin, and this kind of leather can only be profitable if it is produced in a certain amount."
"I happen to have some in my hand..." Surdak smiled, and after speaking, he pulled out an ordinary wooden box from his magic belt bag and placed it on the table.
Surdak casually opened the wooden cover, and it was filled with wind wolf skins that he didn't even have time to clean up the blood stains.
The Brunei manager was a little dumbfounded. Even if it was a low-level monster leather, it should at least be placed in a magic sealing box.
Probably seeing the expression on the Brunei manager's face, Suldak chuckled and said: "We met more wind wolves than expected. There are not enough magic sealing boxes, so we can only put them in ordinary wooden boxes.
."
The Brunei manager looked up at Suldak in confusion.
"I have about fifty wooden boxes full of wind wolf skins like this..."
The Brunei manager's eyes widened, and he quickly stood up and pulled out the hard wind wolf skins from the wooden box one by one. After a rough count, there were nineteen wind wolf skins stuffed into one wooden box.
Surdak said truthfully: "Some wind wolf skins are in good condition, and some wind wolf skins have some holes..."
The Brunei manager's eyes were a little straightened, and he quickly said: "These wind wolf skins can be used to make a batch of wind-attributed magic paper. This type of magic paper is still very popular on the market."
