Chapter 154: Knights of Winter

  Chapter 154 Winter Knights

  If there is no warning in advance, the other party may prevaricate with 'I don't know that I can't hunt', so David specially emphasized it and gave a 'persuasion'.

   If you come here to try to hunt Pokémon after being warned, don't blame him for being cruel.

  Waldo's dream was shattered to the ground. He wanted to try harder, but before he could open his mouth, he realized that the baron in front of him might not discuss this matter with him.

  He feels that he can become a fairly successful businessman. The most important thing is that he can distinguish the situation and not cross the line to touch the minefield.

  So, Waldo changed the subject decisively, no longer mentioning Jenny Turtle and Eevee, but asked Baron Glamorgan's Winter Town what other products do they need? When he comes back next time, Waldo can prepare some specially for Winter Town.

  He doesn't think his caravan can make more money from Cold Winter Town. This time he brought a lot of supplies. With the size of Cold Winter Town, those things are enough for a long time.

  Waldo even considered not coming to the north for a short time, maybe he could make a trip to the south of the kingdom.

   Thinking this way in my heart, I didn't expect the Baron Glamorgan next to me to say this directly: "The next time your caravan comes to the north, it should be a long time later, right?"

  Waldo returned a warm smile, saying that if Lord Baron Glamorgan needs it, he can make a special trip to help him.

"That's not necessary, I really don't have anything urgently needed here." David thought for a while, and felt that this caravan could still be used: "If you plan to go to other parts of the Kingdom of Tilan, you can help me buy some Material."

   "May I ask what material the baron wants?"

"Special materials such as the skin of gluttonous beasts." David felt that this kind of material, Waldo himself would resell: "Not only gluttonous beasts, similar special materials can be reserved for Winter Town. The next time I come to the northern plains, I will buy them all."

   It’s not that there is no need for such things if you have space ore. No matter whether you need this special material in a hurry or not, it’s always good to have some on hand.

   No one knows when it will be used suddenly.

   "I understand what my lord means." Waldo did understand that the lord of Cold Winter Town actually started to buy all kinds of special materials, but he just didn't know how much share he should leave for this lord?

   After thinking for a moment, Waldo realized that the Baron of Glamorgan wanted many kinds of materials, but he didn't specify a certain one. He should simply reserve this kind of special materials and have no special needs for the time being.

  In this case, I only need to keep a part of each material. When the baron has a special need, he will naturally find himself to buy a specific material.

After thinking about this, Waldo realized that he could establish a long-term trade relationship with the lord of Cold Winter Town. Considering that no other caravan has come to Cold Winter Town except himself, maybe this trade route will become own exclusive trade routes.

  Although you won't get rich suddenly, the win lies in long-term stability.

   Moreover, judging from the frequent correspondence between Baron Glamorgan and Earl Stewart, the baron has a good relationship with Earl Stewart, and the noble connections he wants can be obtained from Lord Stewart.

  The shattered dreams seem to be put together again!

The elated Waldo said goodbye and left, and began to plan to go south directly after returning to the capital: Lord Baron Glamorgan said that he needed some special materials, but he specifically mentioned the skin of the glutton. If you can't see it, it is naturally difficult to buy it.

  If you want to purchase in large quantities, it is best to go to the southern border town, or even go to the New Alan Federation.

   "Exactly, what new products are there?"

  Considering that this trip will take a long trip, maybe I have to expand the caravan lineup? He thought of the two young men who came to Cold Winter Town with the caravan.

  Young, energetic, hard-working, and most importantly, very cheap. It would be great if you can stay as a helper for a long time.

  Find young people named Diogo and Marty and propose long-term employment, but unfortunately they were rejected by the two young people.

"it's a pity."

  Knowing that the other party wanted to reclaim land in Cold Winter Town to become a self-cultivator with land, Waldo knew that he could not persuade such a person to join the caravan.

But he didn't force it either. Seeing that the two young people worked hard and made a lot of money this trip, the happy Waldo still gave the two young people extra rewards and wished the two young people a speedy return. Cultivate your own land.

   "I hope that when I come to Cold Winter Town next time, the two of you will have become small landowners with a lot of farmland."

   Seeing that there was a reward, the two young people happily expressed their gratitude to the caravan leader, and at the same time began to look forward to their next life in Cold Winter Town.

  According to the usual practice, the distribution of rewards means that the two of them have left the caravan. They have a rest tonight, and the caravan will set off tomorrow morning to leave Cold Winter Town.

  In that case, the two of them will need to find another place to live tonight.

   Fortunately, Diogo greeted the pharmacist Cordell earlier, and learned one thing from the pharmacist: Cold Winter Town will provide basic board and lodging for farmers who come to defect.

  And farm tools and seeds will be distributed, so that people who come to settle in Cold Winter Town can get their own land as soon as possible.

  When they heard these things, the two young men thought the pharmacist was joking, but after inquiring with other people, especially those who had just arrived in Cold Winter Town, they realized that they were all true.

  Thus, the two young people happily started a new life in Cold Winter Town, and David's Cold Winter Town had two more farmers.

  At the same time, David also got some news from Eva.

   "Other villages and towns are deliberately intercepting civilians coming to Lindong Town?"

"Yes." Eva was keenly aware of the situation from the words of the two young people when she helped the two young people register various information: "Even caravans can't get through, if that Waldo is not Even if you get the goods from Earl Stewart, you won’t be able to reach us.”

  David looked at the information compiled by Eva in his hand, which clearly listed which villages and towns had been intercepted. In addition to Marty and Diogo, the two newcomers who just completed the registration, Eva also deliberately found the four people who came to Cold Winter Town before.

  After sorting out and categorizing the information of several people, it became the intelligence that David saw in front of him.

   "As expected of an intelligence officer of the Allied Forces." David praised, and sighed from the bottom of his heart that this is Eva's old profession!

David, who was sitting in his wooden house, looked at the information in his hands, and noticed the pair of black red-soled high heels under the small table, which were up and down there, looking very naughty, which seemed to mean that Eva was in the mood of being praised. very good.

  David looked at the information for a while, and looked under the table for a while, discussing the surrounding villages with Eva.

   "Do you need Floyd or Gareth to bring some soldiers to warn the surrounding villages?"

   "No, they can intercept them if they want to, and they can't keep those who are really willing to come." For example, didn't Marty and Diogo insist on coming to Cold Winter Town?

  Hearing Eva mention the two knights, David remembered that he had agreed to let the two recruit recruits earlier, but he didn't know what happened: "Have the two selected enough recruits?"

   "Still picking..."

"oh."

   lowered his head and glanced again, huh? Is it an illusion, did Eva's legs stretch out a little?

   Gently stretched out his leg and touched it, wanting to remind Eva on the opposite side: I know your legs are long, so you don’t need to show them to me.

   As a result, the other party had no intention of withdrawing it at all, but David suddenly felt the magic power of the peculiar material of high-grade magic silk, and his leg was actually sucked.

   "..."

   There was a second of silence, while David was distracted wrestling with Eva, he continued to discuss the business: "By the way, has Tirion been back recently?"

"No."

"Remind me, the next time Tirion comes back, remember to ask him to send a batch of Garand rifles and ammunition made by the dwarves of Ironforge. formula."

   "Are these rifles intended for recruits?"

"It's not just recruits... Tell Will that you don't need to make powerful small-caliber rifle bullets anymore." It just so happens that the original powerful rifle bullets are all shot up in Azeroth: "In the future, the rifle will be Garand produced by Ironforge Mainly rifles."

   Importing weapons from Ironforge is also more convenient than letting Laura buy and transport them.

  And the Garand rifle made by Ironforge is much more powerful than the one made on Earth. Coupled with the powerful bullets produced in Cold Winter Town, it is basically equivalent to a semi-automatic rapid-fire gun in hand.

  Such ferocious firepower should be able to sweep across the northern plains, right?

   Thinking of the excitement, David moved his legs a few times unconsciously, but the result was a counterattack from his opponent. The two gradually changed from a simple wrestling to a competition of tricks.

   It's just that both sides have scruples and dare not use their full strength. He even chose a more elegant way of fighting, you hit, I hit, and the movements are slow, and it will never hurt the opponent.

   "As for the firearms instructor, Jack Krause can be the one."

  Klausar has been in Cold Winter Town for a while, after the initial adaptation, it is time to arrange some serious errands for him.

   It just so happened that Cold Winter Town began to recruit and train new recruits. As a former member of the special forces, Klausar naturally knew a lot of training methods.

  However, he is not going to let Clausa directly take over the training of soldiers. The training method on Earth may not be suitable for this world.

   First go to help Floyd and teach the soldiers about firearms.

   "So, do you want to arrange an official position for Jack Krause?"

  "The firearms instructor of the Winter Knights." The advantage of being a lord is that he can even name the troops at will.

"OK."

  At this time, Elias, who was standing behind David, was trying his best to maintain the expression of "I didn't see anything"...
