Parks Feilong personally invited Lant to the Magic Association, nominally to announce to Lant the results of the demon clan investigation, or in other words, to tell Lant that their family had given up on the demon clan who had previously assassinated him, so that Lant could Dispose of it as you wish.
In private, under the pressure of Red Dragon Rock, they reached a ceasefire agreement with Lant and announced that the Magic Association would send a mage law enforcement team to patrol near Lant's Chamber of Commerce.
In other words, the Magic Association will officially ensure that Lant's subordinates stay away from the fighting in Yeqi City. Although no one admits defeat on the surface, the magister of the Feilong family expresses with practical actions: We are messing with your family. Sorry, I recognize your interests in Yeqi City. From now on, we will not interfere with each other.
Lant was very satisfied with the Feilong family's initiative to sue for peace. After confirming that the Feilong family was no longer targeting him that night, he calmly started to pay attention to the trade center of Yeqi City and the war in the north.
The disputes in Yeqi City did not stop because Feilong and Benma temporarily made peace. Instead, there was more smoke in the outer areas of the city.
Throughout the morning of the 9th, Lant was in the meditation room at the top of the magic tower of the palace, sometimes looking at the green smoke rising from the foot of Longtai Mountain outside the window, sometimes looking at the huge map of Galloping Horse Plains at his feet.
Beside him, Antreqi, a young man from the Blue Dragon family, stood cautiously and respectfully, not daring to say anything.
At this time last year, Antrege met Lant Galloping Horse for the first time. At that time, he was only the fourth son of a baronet. Although he was very successful under the Blue Magpie Castle, not even the Earl of Maned Wolf was there. Thinking that he could truly restore Yeqi City, unify the entire Galloping Horse Plain, become the successor of the two fairy queens Taniya and Aibilis, and become a dependent of the Demon Network, and a year later, he would become a very important figure in Dragon Tooth City. character of.
But what Antreach didn't expect was that Lant would miss his old relationship so much that he would let him be the person in charge of Yeqicheng Commercial Center.
Yesterday, McLaren suddenly informed him that a city-sized trade center had been built in Yeqi City, which would replace the deceased Gatsby Lanyuan as a pivotal trade center connecting the Orc Plateau to the center of the Human Empire, and he , will become the manager of this business center.
"Actually, I recommended several high-level people to Duke Lant, but he still insisted on choosing you and was even willing to provide you with the magic potion to become a high-level one!"
Yesterday, McLaren said in the magic mirror, "What Duke of Lant likes in you is your familiarity with the galloping horse plains and your emphasis on the honor of the nobility!"
"Yes! Your Excellency, I will do it well!" Even when facing the legendary knight in the magic mirror, Antrege knelt down on the spot to express his loyalty.
"Well, you are in Dragon Tooth City with that Gatsby Lan Yuan. You must know his affairs better, so you must take him as a warning. No amount of gold coins can buy back the lord's protection!"
"Boom~"
"Roar~"
There was another rumbling sound outside the window. This time, thick smoke even rose from the Dragon Tooth City. The screams of dragon beasts and griffins came from the sky, waking up the knight who was thinking.
"Antredge?"
"Yes! Your Majesty the Duke!" Antreqi replied subconsciously when Lant called his name.
"You don't have to be so outspoken," Lant waved his hand, "Just call me Sir like everyone else in the territory."
"Thank you, sir!" Antreqi understood that Lant's words showed that he was also a member of Yeqi City.
"Yesterday, I told Mr. McLaren why I chose you as the person in charge of the trade," Lant motioned for Antreq to sit down. "In addition to Gulea's recommendation, more importantly, Your character and abilities are sufficient to support this position."
What attracted Lant to Antrich was his character. There were several money-making "geniuses" in the territory, such as Pete Maned Wolf, Gatsby Lanyuan and Sally Feilong. Everyone can be described as making a fortune, but they always like to bypass the rand and use the convenience in the territory to reach private deals.
In contrast, Antrich's habit of signing a contract for every transaction can indeed guarantee the interests of each party.
"For me, the business center is not a simple market, and this market is not intended to replace regional commercial centers such as Longya City, White Tree City, and Albaidi," Lant pointed to the map on the ground.
"In the future, Yeqi City will become a manufacturing center for many alchemy products and magic pattern products as it has in the past. At the same time, dozens of magic plants and magic wines will be produced on the entire Benma Plain. This trade center is to enable these products to be The most reasonable prices are sold everywhere.”
"What do you mean, sir, to use this place as a place for auctioning products?" Antreqi asked in a low voice.
"Hmm..." Lant suddenly realized that the young man from the Blue Dragon family in front of him had only been an agent after all, and perhaps he had less experience.
"Not only that, I have three goals for this business center. The latest one is to cash in all the business contracts of nearly 100,000 gold coins left by Gatsby. Although 90% of the orders did not pay the deposit, It is the raw material used by major families to support Ice Sea Frontline products, and there is no room for any delay.”
As he spoke, Lant handed a stack of orders to Antluck. Just as he expected, from yesterday afternoon to this morning, several families came to him with purchase intentions and said they had contacted Gatsby. The price and shipment volume were agreed upon verbally.
"Recheck the prices and delivery dates of these orders. If there are no special problems, proceed in accordance with the original agreement, and re-sign new contracts for new trade in the future."
"Yes! Sir," Antreqi roughly looked through several documents. They were basically contracts based on normal market prices in previous years. The magic materials from the orcs themselves have a high premium, and there seems to be nothing unreasonable.
However, if it were in the past, this kind of ordering that was 3 or 4 times higher than normal years would definitely lead to a skyrocketing price. If it were reflected in the finished product, it would be at least 6, 7 times or even 10 times longer.
But this year, the plantations in Yeqi City have begun to harvest the first batch of magic plants. The large quantities of raw materials and potions previously hoarded by the orc ministries and Yeqi City have also been stranded due to the rapid end of the war. More importantly, the Galloping Horse Plain has been After being completely opened, portals, underwater transportation and road-rail combined transportation will allow bulk commodities to flow more conveniently across regions.
These combined factors have resulted in commodities that have been in short supply in previous years neither seeing price reductions due to smooth traffic nor skyrocketing due to expanding demand.
