Bells were ringing in the green fields, and carriages were connected in a line, winding forward under the sky.
On the shields of the carriage and the accompanying riders, you can see conspicuous signs, which are the silhouette of a human body and a snake's tail.
The body seems to be that of a woman, with graceful curves, a snake's tail is curved, and the tail is raised. This is the symbol of the Lamia Chamber of Commerce.
Lamia Chamber of Commerce, mainly engaged in livestock, cashmere, fur, leather and other industries. It was once one of the 26 seats in Verga, a well-known large chamber of commerce. When Lorraine Hill was in Hopeland, this chamber of commerce also gave a gift
Special winter dress.
Since the establishment of the New Verga Alliance, they have also moved to the west. Unexpectedly, they met on the grassland this time.
Lorraine Hill sat on the carriage, looking at the carriages in the distance, recalling the information about the Lamia Chamber of Commerce.
In the New Verga Alliance, the Lamia Chamber of Commerce is a supporter of Crancia, because almost all of its raw material production areas are in the grasslands and northern Clancia. If the two countries are at odds, their business will be greatly affected, so their position is very
It's firm.
It is said that the leader of the Lamia Chamber of Commerce seems to be an old man. Lorraine Hill recalled what he saw in Hopeland in the past. He wonders how the old man is doing now and which family member this caravan is now.
Leading.
Just as she was leaning against the car window and thinking, a rider came over on horseback. This man was one of the guards of the Lagdis caravan.
He stopped by the car window and asked, "Miss, the leader of the caravan ahead wants to see you."
It really means that Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived. Lorraine Hill responded: "Okay, let them wait for a while and wait for the team in front to set up camp."
She looked up at the purple sunset in the distance. It was getting dark.
------
At night, the carriages formed a circle with a bright bonfire in the middle, and everyone began to cook some food. There were many people in the Lamia caravan, about 300 people, wearing armor made of leather and steel, and their accents were also diverse.
People from the south, not from central Crancia.
In the center of the camp, next to a bonfire, Lorraine Hill walked over with a few people. Today she was wearing her usual red dress, with her long blond hair draped behind her shoulders, with some curls at the end, and her style had a hint of
Playful and cute.
The bright yellow flame burned more than one meter high, and was particularly bright at night. There were already two people standing by the fire, waiting. They seemed to be a brother and sister. The elder brother had short, slightly curly hair, and the younger sister had wavy light green curly hair.
The elder brother wears a solid leather armor with a dark green outer cover and a cape behind him. The younger sister's dress is mainly dark green with dark red as a supplement. Her style is quite classical and conservative.
"Hello, Miss Lecia. I am Hollant from the Lamia Chamber of Commerce, and this is my sister, Meier."
"Hello, I am Lecia from the Ragdis Chamber of Commerce. Nice to meet you."
After finishing speaking, Holland invited Lorraine Hill to sit down. They placed a round table not far from the fire, with several candlesticks erected beside it.
"The conditions are simple in the wilderness, please forgive me." Holant explained briefly, then clapped his hands and asked the waiter on the side to bring a plate of freshly roasted meat slices, sprinkled with delicious and tempting spices, and paired with
The lemon tea on the side is quite appetizing.
"I didn't expect to see caravans from the south in the depths of the grassland. This can be regarded as a kind of fate." He said the reason for inviting Lorraine Hill, and then introduced his chamber of commerce.
Lorraine Hill had already known about these matters of the Lamia Chamber of Commerce, but he just heard about them again this time.
"As for our chamber of commerce, we mainly deal in candies, dried fruits, spices and the like. I came to the grassland this time because I have never been here before and I am curious to see if I can open up a new business." After that, it was Lorraine Hill's ego.
introduce.
When she heard about the candy, Meier on the opposite side raised her head and looked at Lorraine Hill curiously. Then she continued to lower her head, slowly drank the juice, and continued to listen.
"Candy, it's really rare." Hollant sighed. After all, candy is a rare luxury item that many people don't have access to.
After a few people talked, they gradually became familiar with each other. Only then did Lorraine Hill know that the Lamia Chamber of Commerce has changed its generation. The previous head of the family is currently retired and retiring at the seaside. The current head of the family is Holant.
With Mayer's father, he plans to further develop the industry and expand its scale.
"So, my father asked my sister and I to lead a team to this grassland."
"What do you think?" Lecia asked slightly curiously.
"The grassland today has changed a lot from when I came here a few years ago." Holant sighed slightly.
"It was not easy to purchase furs and leathers before. First, the quantity of goods was small and the quality was low. Second, there were many tribes who robbed the goods on the road. Third, the checkpoints in West Wind charged more."
"Now these no longer exist, and business is much easier."
"That's right..." Lorraine Hill nodded.
Seeing Lorraine Hill's indifferent look, Holland thought that the girl didn't understand the difficulties involved.
"Miss Lecia may have never been to the grassland and doesn't know much about the hidden secrets."
"In the past, on the grasslands, pastures, food, etc. were all competing for each other. There were frequent conflicts, so that when we were doing business, we had to bring a lot of guards to ensure safety. And because grazing, we had to change the land frequently, otherwise it would be deserted. They
During long migrations, sometimes I don’t arrive with the tribes I worked with last year, and it takes a lot of energy to connect with them.”
"These things seem to have changed now, which is really strange."
"Why is it strange?" Lorraine Hill tilted his head slightly, his face illuminated by the bonfire not far away. His smooth and beautiful face made the eldest son of the Lamia Chamber of Commerce slightly absent-minded. After several seconds, he finally
After reacting, he continued to speak.
"It's just that things have suddenly become a lot more peaceful, and people are kinder than before."
"I understand." Lorraine Hill nodded obediently.
Seeing the girl's appearance, Holand wanted to continue explaining, but he opened his mouth and closed it again. Did she really understand? It didn't look like it, but it was better not to continue explaining. He wanted to be more straightforward.
, so as to give this girl a good impression.
Although he didn't realize it himself, after seeing this girl, he suddenly began to pay attention to his image, and his body subconsciously changed many movements, such as sitting more upright and his expression being softer.
Meir was drinking juice on the side, and occasionally looked at Lorraine Hill and her brother. Compared to the slightly slower Holant, she noticed something strange about her brother early today.
After thinking about the reason for a moment, she couldn't help but shake her head slightly. Her brother was probably fascinated by Miss Lecia. But it was understandable that even she, who was also a girl, felt a little ashamed when she looked at this girl.
.
This trip may have changed a lot because of this. She placed the cup on the small round table and looked at the firelight reflected on the rim of the cup. She thought to herself, and then continued to turn her eyes to the blond lady in the red dress who was talking.
In the cool night, I live in the wilderness, and the bonfire illuminates the beauty.
