On April 8, the caravan of Obert and the Mace Frostwolf finally returned to Rotor Castle, along with Antrege Blue Dragon.
The caravan was slow because they had been waiting for a few days in Maned Wolf City. Master John purchased another batch of decommissioned boiler components in the Imperial Capital. He and Dugan spent a few days traveling to and from the Imperial Capital in the teleportation hall. and Maned Wolf City.
The caravan not only had the 10 boats when it set off, but the Blue Dragon Family and the Frostwolf Family sold another 20 river boats. For this reason, Lant specially dragged Tenia from the underground ruins yesterday, April 7th. Lot's territory, she asked her to build a castle the size of an inn camp near the river bank of the castle.
Different from the inn, this lookout also has the function of a lighthouse, and has added a port terminal, berthing area, simple crane and warehouse. Considering the possibility of future ship repairs, Rand even dug two holes here. Small boat dock.
When more than 30 ships came from east to west on the morning of the 8th, Lant even felt like a thousand sails were racing. The first to arrive at the port were 10 of his own cargo ships, 3 of which were filled with Imperial Capital. The decommissioned transmissions were built, and the other three were bought with scrap metal and old books from the Imperial City. Scrap iron and paper were a desperate move by Lant due to his current shortage of iron ore and paper.
"That Master John you are looking for is such a bookworm. Just to get a signature, he pushed back the delivery date by one day." Obert complained as soon as he got off the ship and saw Lant.
"This is a promise to a good person. I don't want any reward. I just want to take the opportunity to go to Ms. Louisa's sharing meeting in the imperial capital and get an autograph for the hardcover version of "Saint Jenkins" he collected." Lant was very early Knowing that Master John loved books, he used this as an excuse to invite him to come out. "In my early years in the imperial capital, I worked as an alchemist in more than a dozen magic towers. Although my level was low, my knowledge was first-rate."
"As long as you don't mind us being late." Obert and John didn't meet, but when Lant praised him for his reliability, he couldn't question it. "But what the mage bought is really good. The quality is good and the price is very low. I don't think the iron ore we buy is necessarily cheaper than this scrap iron."
"It's very possible that for the imperial capital, no one cares about ordinary iron, and only the magic black iron is mixed with it." Lant followed Obert on board the ship and took a look at the cargo. "The quality of these scrap irons Yes, but it takes up too much space, and it’s too laborious to move around with just a few space rings.”
In this scrap iron transaction, the most expensive thing is actually the toll between the three regions. When Dugan turned back for the first two times, he still paid the toll of 10 gold coins to go back and forth between Dragon Tooth City and Maned Wolf City. Later, he learned a lesson and arranged good people at both ends of the portal. He spent 50 silver coins each time and asked strangers who passed through to forward it on his behalf. The transportation cost dropped sharply.
The elf ghost knight in the back actually took the magic mirror and the space ring, and helped the young nobles in Dragon Fang City purchase them on the black market in the Royal Capital and Maned Wolf City, and evened out half of the cost of the portal.
The scrap iron and grain on the cargo ship will go directly north and disembark at the dock in Yeqi City, so Lant and Obert only took a brief look at the cargo before preparing to meet Antreq, who was at the back of the fleet.
The young man from the Lanlong family followed the caravan to Luoteling this time, not only to thank him for delivering the goods again, but also to test it.
"Lord Viscount, you bought so many machines, do you plan to use them to dig salt?" Antreqi naturally knew that Lant's subordinates had become traitors. Although he looked down on the scrap metal Lant bought, he was very fond of his. Interesting in the idea.
"Not only is it digging for salt, but there is also a coal mine north of the salt mine, which needs these things even more." Lant explained with a smile, but did not expose his boiler.
"Actually, the Imperial Salt and Iron Division has a lot of this kind of equipment, but even our Lanlong family can't easily buy it."
As the two of them talked, they boarded Lant's luxury carriage.
"Lord Viscount, the fish tanks you sold in that restaurant were very popular before. In fact, the main purpose of my visit this time is to sell alchemy equipment." The blond-haired blue dragon young man looked at Lant from the moment he got in the car, " I wonder if I will be lucky enough to meet your mentor?"
The most important purpose of Antreqi's personal visit this time is to test the reality of the Benma family. This is related to the Blue Dragon family's overall attitude towards the Benma family. Without the backing of a magician, it can be easily manipulated. Otherwise, it will careful.
Lant tilted his head and showed a regretful expression, "Unfortunately, the previous magister has gone to the royal capital. He was originally traveling on the plains and is not the backing of our family."
Before in the royal capital, Lant said that he had a mage, and he was also referring to the mage Gandalf, but Lant did not expect that this old mage really had the level of a mage.
"However, my family already has a new magister, and you will be able to meet her soon!"
"Her?" Antrech suddenly thought of a possibility, "This... the breakthrough was too fast!"
"Of course, it's only been a few months, but it's definitely a breakthrough."
"It's... it's really great," Blue Dragon kept thinking in his mind. If the born magician broke through to the high level in just a few months, then it would be a matter of time to break through to the legendary level. It seems that the Feilong family's Trouble is already on the way. The Feilong family squeezed out a natural-born magician a few years ago. Although the impact of this incident was not serious, it was not glorious either. The old Feilong family not only controls the entire inheritance of the dragon mage profession, but its branches also control the eastern part of the kingdom. Although no one dared to openly question the domineering style of the Feilong family, there were quite a few people waiting to see their jokes.
"I would also like to express my special thanks to you and His Highness the Duke of Dragon Tooth City for this matter. Without you, my family would not have a high-level existence today." Lant thanked Antreq very seriously, and the blue dragon left behind that day. After asking Lant to spend the night in the city, Lant would hand over the magic goblin to the big goblin Qiaomu for the night, and ask the Queen of Ye Qicheng to help cultivate the little goblin.
"That's really my honor." Antreqi was so nervous that he was sweating. He thought it was Wendy who got the breakthrough.
Antrich just wanted to see a joke, but he didn't dare to really laugh at the Feilong family. Picking up the girls' families to go to the horse racing was just a deal. He didn't think much about it at the time, but now that he thought about it carefully, he realized that once Wendy was assisted by Prince Li Qi and became a magister, he was involved in a quagmire involving the royal family. inside.
In the car, Lant was thinking about what alchemy product to use to get Antlage to pay for it. Antlage was thinking about how to get out of the mess safely, so he went all the way to Lot Castle and quickly climbed the stairs.
