"So, the salt and dried fish just passed through six territories and were sold out?"
In the hall on the first floor of the castle, Nalant listened to Thomas describe the detailed process of the convoy. During this period, he asked for details from time to time, so as to supplement the subsequent business development of Storm Territory.
"Yes, sir, we passed through six territories in total and sold out all the salt and dried fish! If we hadn't stayed too short, maybe we would have been able to sell out the goods as long as we passed through two or three territories." Thomas drank Nalan She specially rewarded him with honey tea and nodded vigorously in reply.
"Well, actually, even after selling all the goods through six territories, it has exceeded my expectations. After all, dried fish is not a necessity!" Nalant nodded with a smile.
He used the Storm Territory as a model and speculated that although other territories were better than the Storm Territory, they would not be as wealthy.
However, it was obvious that he was wrong in thinking that the residents of other territories were not 100% serfs, and ordinary civilians also occupied a lot.
Although serfs did not have purchasing power, it did not mean that common people did not, so dried fish was obviously as popular as table salt.
The only pity is that those nobles are still concerned about the reputation of the doomed land of Stormland. Otherwise, with the purchasing power of those lords and nobles, the dried fish and salt will definitely be sold faster.
Of course, it is also beneficial for the nobles not to participate in the purchase for the time being.
In this way, the nobles could not interfere with his salt business, allowing him to sell to the common people at low prices, and let the common people develop a low-price awareness.
After developing this low-price awareness, civilians will naturally organize caravans to come to the Storm Territory.
As long as foreign caravans enter the Storm Territory, the commerce of the Storm Territory will slowly take shape.
Whether the caravan comes to buy or sell goods, it plays a vital role in the development of Storm Territory.
"Thomas, keep talking!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Next, the convoy moved forward. According to your instructions, a guard was sent to deliver the gift prepared for Lord Andrew. The convoy arrived at Tulip Castle..." Thomas received the order and began to describe the next stage in detail.
"My father actually chased Aldin with a big ax in front of the Earl!" Nalant's eyes suddenly widened. He didn't expect that the original owner's father was so domineering, and that was in front of the lord.
However, it can be seen that although the original owner is a waste, Andrew also cares about his children.
"Yes, sir! Fortunately, the earl was not angry and even spoke to appease Lord Andrew!"
"Yes!" Nalant nodded. His cheap father was a powerful general under the earl, so it was naturally impossible for the earl to punish him.
More importantly, Nalant discovered from Thomas's detailed account that his cheap father did not seem to be a simple-minded person with well-developed limbs.
For example, one of the details is worth studying. Although Andrew chased Aldin fiercely and hacked him, when Aldin finally ran up to the high platform where the Earl was, Andrew did not pursue him.
This high platform is just like the Dragon Platform where the emperor in the previous life was. The courtiers must not step onto the high platform without permission. Andrew did this, which shows that he has a good grasp of the Earl's bottom line.
After sighing about his cheap father, Nalant thought of the earl's compensation again, "Fortunately, I had expected it. My Storm Territory was almost gone!"
Although this place of misfortune is a bit more dangerous, Nalant really doesn't want to change it. Not only is the sky high and the emperor is far away, but the most important thing is that it is large.
The territories assigned to the other second sons were a barony divided into two or three parts.
That kind of territory is safe, but the area is small and the development potential is too low.
And if you are not lucky enough, you won’t even have a castle. If there is no lord of the castle, is it still called a lord?
On the contrary, his Storm Territory is the size of a barony, and he also received a tax-free compensation.
Narant felt that the Earl would definitely regret this decision in a few years. After all, through this sale of goods, Narant had completely confirmed the feasibility of business.
Of course, it would be useless for the Earl to regret it in the future. At this time, the decree regarding the tax exemption for the Storm Territory was already in his hands.
There are only a few words on this parchment: From now on, the vassal Nalant's fief Stormland will be exempted from all taxes. This decree is permanently effective.
Signed: August Tulip! Plus a personal seal of the Earl.
This thing is generally valid forever like the edict of the previous life, unless one day the Tulip family ceases to exist, it will be invalid.
"Sir, after reporting to the Earl in Tulip Castle, I took the convoy to the east of Tulip City and started selling perfume there..." Thomas began to talk about the process of selling perfume again!
"Is there such a thing? After the noble ladies and ladies smelled the fragrance of the perfume, no one came up to buy it?" Narant couldn't help but sweat. He had suffered from inertial thinking.
How could he have imagined that for the nobles of this world, the dignity of the nobles was often more important than anything else.
He originally thought that he had run out of tricks. For example, he specifically told Thomas not to say that the perfume came from the Storm Territory. Otherwise, the reputation of the Land of Doom might make the perfume as coldly treated by the nobles as salt and dried sea fish.
Unexpectedly, the reputation of the land of doom was avoided, but other surprises occurred.
Fortunately, the tulip flower who had never been masked before helped him save the situation.
Although this was an unintentional move for Stella, it was a good endorsement for Nalant's perfume.
Just like in previous lives, if you want an item to become a trend, it must be promoted and led by a public figure.
As for Stella, she is truly famous in the Tulip world.
More importantly, Stella also priced his perfume from the original fifty silver coins to one gold coin per bottle.
"If I have the chance, I should repay this tulip flower!" Nalant silently remembered this kindness in his heart.
After talking about the perfume, the next step was the trivial process of purchasing items in the city. After this, nothing major happened.
Finally, Thomas took out a gift box from his arms.
"Sir, this is the gift your sister, Miss Nasia, asked me to give to you when the convoy left Tulip City!"
"Nasia?" Nalant was a little surprised. The name Nasia was both familiar and unfamiliar to him now.
Andrew had a total of three children, two sons and one daughter, and Nasia was the biological sister who was two years younger than the original owner.
Nasia is different from Nalant. She is very talented in fighting spirit, even better than Nalant's eldest brother. She should be studying at a noble academy in Tulip City now.
After taking the gift box, Nalant opened it directly, and then a fiery red crystal appeared in front of him.
"It turns out to be a flame crystal!"
