The next step is to meet Liya. Yun Xiaohan is Liya's direct vassal. He does not need to sign a trade agreement to trade with all Liya's direct territories. However, in addition to the territories of the great nobles, there are also
There are some territories belonging to small and medium-sized nobles, so you need a Sardinian trade license certificate issued by Liya to start trade.
Considering the relationship between Yun Xiaohan and Liya, it is only a matter of one sentence to obtain a trade license certificate.
There is no need to go to Xili Island Yun Xiaohan. On the one hand, Liya has not yet established her own administrative power there. On the other hand, it is also the territory directly under Liya's jurisdiction, so there is no need to make another trip.
This shows how important it is to be in a noble system. If Yun Xiaohan's territory is purchased and does not have any affiliation, then no matter how much effort he spends, he can only conclude trade with one or two small territories.
relationship, and pay a very high price.
It took nearly an hour and a half for Yun Xiaohan to circle the entire Sardinia along the coastline, of which he spent about 50 minutes at sea.
Yun Xiaohan didn't plan to sign the trade agreement in Snowrun City. He took a look at it before giving money to the players. As a big city, Snowrun City needs to have a "big businessman" level of business status in Snowrun City.
Only then can we start trade with them.
To achieve this, Yun Xiaohan would have to invest at least 1,000 gold in commercial currency in Xueman City, which would cost at least 60 gold in daily game currency, which was totally uneconomical.
In addition, there are two other ways. One is that Yun Xiaohan has made great contributions to Xueman City, and the other is that he has a better personal relationship with the lord of Xueman City.
Obviously, Yun Xiaohan couldn't take either of these two paths, and he was unwilling to spend so much money, so he had to give up.
However, the failure to start trade with Xueman City is not a particularly big loss to Yun Xiaohan. After all, the output of Ajaccio Village is limited. Now that Yun Xiaohan's territory has been included in the entire Sardinian territory's trade system, trade
There is no shortage of objects.
It’s nothing more than the lack of some special commodities, as well as the price difference loss caused by regional population and resource differences. Some commodities may not be sold at high prices in Sardinia, but they can be sold at high prices in Xueman City, such as shipbuilding timber, Sardinia.
There is not much shortage in the territory, but the demand in Xueman City is huge.
But obviously, if we only trade within the trading system of Sardinia, some resources will definitely not be easy to sell, so Yun Xiaohan still needs to find a city on the Yar continent to start trade.
At this time, we have to mention another NPC—Felix Scipio, the young viscount who was once rescued by Yun Xiaohan on the battlefield. Felix once invited Yun Xiaohan to his newly acquired territory—the city of Nice.
However, the trip has never been possible, and this time Yun Xiaohan's last person to visit was him.
Nice is a small city with a population of only 80,000, which is relatively small among small cities.
Like Snowrun, Nice is also a coastal city and belongs to the Dukedom of Scipio. The capital of the duchy is Nasser City. Nasser City is one of the two main port cities that players in the Central Empire can choose, the other is Snowrun City.
.
The city size of Nasser City is much larger than that of Snowrun City, but Snowrun City can be regarded as a border city, directly bordering the Business Alliance, so it is more popular with players.
If Xueman City, Ajaccio Village, and Nasser City are connected with a line on the map, they will almost form an inverted equilateral triangle. Xueman City is on the upper left, Nasser City is on the upper right, and Ajaccio Village is on the right.
Below, the city of Nice is to the left of Nasr City.
The voyage from Snowrun City to Nassel City takes about 20 minutes, and to Nice it takes 15 minutes. It is also the journey of players in peacetime, and it is also the speed of the Vestalos under the command of Yun Xiaohan.
When Liya delivered the ship this time, she also helped Yun Xiaohan hire 15 sailors, all of whom were ordinary sailors. The Vestalos was fully loaded with 40 crew members, and the necessary crew members were 15, which was exactly the necessary crew number. This was more convenient.
It saves sailors' wages and ensures the speed of the ship.
However, starting from today, Yun Xiaohan needs to pay the sailors' wages out of his own pocket, but these sailors are the lowest class after all, and their wages are not high. They only need 7.5 silver per week, and players do not need to provide food and supplies for offshore sailing.
Fresh water does not put any pressure on Yun Xiaohan.
However, more advanced sailors and ocean voyages still require higher wages, and players are required to prepare more food and fresh water. Of course, there is no cost to replenish fresh water, but senior sailors need more than just fresh water.
Yes, we also need to prepare some wine, which will definitely cost money.
It took Yun Xiaohan nearly 25 minutes to get from Cagliari to Nice.
The city of Nice is an imperial city, so there are naturally no restrictions on the entry of players from the central empire camp. After Yun Xiaohan entered the city, he went straight to the Viscount's Mansion. The Viscount's Mansion was not allowed to be entered casually and required notification from the guards.
After a short wait, Felix quickly welcomed him out in person, and took Yun Xiaohan's arm and led him into the living room.
Felix was very enthusiastic towards Yun Xiaohan, which even made Yun Xiaohan a little uncomfortable. He didn't seem so enthusiastic when he rescued him.
Soon Yun Xiaohan figured out the reason for Felix's enthusiasm. It turned out that Yun Xiaohan's deeds of helping Liya successfully inherit the Sardine Territory had spread. Although the emperor had not made any statement on this, in Felix
In the eyes of a passionate and patriotic young man like Lix, the miraculous success of Yun Xiaohan and Liya is undoubtedly worthy of special mention.
In addition, Felix's original favorability towards Yun Xiaohan had already reached the level of respect, and now his favorability is close to trust, so it is not surprising that his attitude is so enthusiastic.
Yun Xiaohan told Felix that he had become Liya's vassal and obtained the village of Ajaccio as a fief. He came this time hoping to establish a friendly relationship with Felix and sign a trade agreement.
Originally, Felix invited Yun Xiaohan to Nice City with the intention of giving him some material rewards to thank him for saving his life, but now his mind has changed. Regardless of the huge gap in the size of their territories, he insists on joining Yun Xiaohan.
Xiao Han formed an alliance.
Naturally, Yun Xiaohan would not refuse such a good deed, and readily agreed. Compared with temporary material rewards, this kind of long-term benefit is more beneficial to Yun Xiaohan.
The alliance was concluded, and the conclusion of the trade was even simpler, just a matter of words. Felix also told Yun Xiaohan apologetically that although his father was a duke, he could not influence his father's thoughts, so he could only
Trade with him on behalf of the city of Nice.
But with the current result, Yun Xiaohan was very satisfied. After that, he communicated with Felix for a long time, and he pestered him to tell the story of the Battle of Sardinia before leaving the city of Nice.
