From traveling all over the country at the beginning, to getting to know many lords and establishing stable customer relationships, he spent a total of more than 20 years. In this industry, he has become a senior veteran.
Now when his caravan passes through various territories, as long as it shows its unique sign, it can pay less tolls, and by virtue of its friendly relationship with the lord, it can obtain first-hand supplies.
When he saw Li Feng's notice, he met Li Feng immediately and asked if there was really so much food for sale. As far as he knew, most of the baronies in the Iron Castle Kingdom were really in a period of famine.
Once this batch of grain is delivered, the price will be self-evident.
...........
Dia went to the living room and Li Feng received him warmly.
"Dear Butler Kerang, I would like to ask if the notice at the intersection of your territory is true. For example, do you really only charge 10% commercial tax and exempt various miscellaneous taxes?"
"It really can't be true anymore, Mr. Sony, both Dialand and Lukeland are places that strictly abide by laws. As long as the laws are formulated by the lord, they will definitely be implemented. You can rest assured that if there are people in these two
If this territory collects anything other than the 10% commercial tax from your caravan, tell me and I will take off his head and give it to you."
Hearing Li Feng's assurance, Sony felt relieved, but he still wanted to confirm the food issue.
Li Feng didn't waste any time and took him to the granary in person.
"Oh, Lord, I'm afraid it's enough for a count to live there for a year. I've never sold so much food in my life." In half a day, Sony's outlook on a baron was refreshed.
He could have imagined that Dialing would be rich, but he didn't expect him to be so rich.
Li Feng smiled: "Mr. Sony, I said that if you buy grain from me, you can get as much grain as you want, and I will give you the best option if the quantity is large. How about it? Can you sell it all?"
"I......."
This short but very strong traveling merchant was speechless for a moment, his little eyes darting around.
This warehouse full of grain means a huge business opportunity. If he can seize this business opportunity, not to mention getting rich overnight, but making a lot of money will be no problem at all.
Since the death of the old king of the Iron Castle Kingdom, the prince and his uncle have been fighting for the throne for more than a year, and up to now there is no winner.
It was originally a famine, coupled with the war, a large amount of land was barren, and the entire kingdom was already in dire straits. No matter how much food was transported, they were depleted.
As for whether they can afford it, there is no need to worry, there is a lot of gold, silver, copper and iron in this country.
However, with his current wealth, it is simply wishful thinking to eat so much food. He only has enough money to buy one-tenth of it, and he is reluctant to give up the rest. Although the Iron Castle Kingdom is a neighboring country, it is still far away.
It's not that close. If you come back again and again after making money, it may have been bought by other businessmen.
"Mr. Sony, Mr. Sony?" Li Feng raised his hand and waved it in front of his eyes: "What, is there a problem?"
"Oh no, Butler Kerang, it's like this..." Seeing Li Feng frown, Sony didn't dare to offend this rich man, so he detailed his worries and the chaotic situation in the Iron Castle Kingdom.
Unexpectedly, Li Feng made an unexpected decision after hearing this.
"Mr. Sony, I can sell these grains to you in batches on credit. You can sell these grains to the Iron Castle Kingdom and earn back the iron ingots for me. What do you think of the exchange ratio of 1 silver coin for 10 kilograms?"
Hearing this, Sony stood up from his chair, took off his hat, knelt on one knee in front of Li Feng and bowed: "Steward Kerang, your kindness and generosity are rare in the world. Don't worry, I will definitely take care of all the iron ingots in the Iron Castle Kingdom."
I will earn it back to you, even if I don’t earn a single silver coin, I will still fulfill your instructions.”
Li Feng hurriedly stepped forward, helped him up, and said kindly: "Mr. Sony, please get up quickly. How can I let you not earn a single silver coin? Don't worry, if this business goes well, Dia will lead and Lu in the future."
The grain produced in Keling will continue to cooperate with you and be sold to all parts of the world."
"Thank you Mr. Krone, thank you Mr. Krone."
Li Feng smiled and sent Sony to find Smith. He was no longer responsible for the specific transaction process.
From gaming companies like Sony, Li Feng saw opportunities for rapid development.
The world is very big and rich in resources. Without the communication and communication of these traveling merchants, Li Feng's journey through customs would have been very difficult.
After all, local resources like Dialand and Lukeland have limited resources.
This is not the case outside. Take the Kingdom of Ironforge, for example. It is a large country with 36 counties. It is famous for producing high-quality iron ore. Its national strength, population, and resources are many times stronger than the Kingdom of Chris.
Nowadays, there is civil strife in the Iron Castle Kingdom, and the surrounding small countries are ready to take action. For example, the Chris Kingdom where Li Feng is located and the neighboring Warwick Kingdom of the same size are all ready to take action, hoping to take advantage of it.
Recently, I heard that several counties in the south that are close to the Iron Castle Kingdom have been deploying troops and generals. It seems that they want to start a big fight.
Of course, these have little to do with Li Feng at this time. He does not yet have the ability to play such high-end games on the table.
However, it is still possible to gain some benefits through traveling merchants.
The high-quality iron ore in the Iron Castle Kingdom is currently the most scarce resource in Dialand.
With more high-quality iron ore, more farm tools can be made, more soldiers and armors can be made, and more soldiers and horses can be trained.
If you want to expand, a strong army is a prerequisite.
Speaking of this, Li Feng really misses the arrogant feeling in Dragon Soul Continent where one person could destroy a city with just one hand and destroy an entire world with one palm strike.
I don’t know if I can enter that kind of world after clearing this world.
...........
A few days later, Sony's caravan was loaded with goods, escorted by Leonardo and Johnson, and left Dia Territory, heading towards the Iron Castle Kingdom in the south.
Of course, in addition to Sony's caravan, Li Feng also developed some other small and medium-sized traveling merchants, asking them to help sell small batches of food, while also helping to sell some specialties from the territory and transporting some important resources back.
After several months of operation, the trade route has gradually stabilized, the trade route has been developed, and the food problem has been properly solved. Li Feng can finally free up his hands to carry out what he considers to be the most important task - large-scale
Training.
October.
The busy farming season is over, grain production has increased again, the arsenal is fully equipped, and the farmers are energetic after a month of rest. Li Feng issued a "winter training order" based on the previous 100 training camp members.
All able-bodied men aged 12-40 can come to the castle to participate in a two-month enlistment training. After training, they can be incorporated into the regular army.
