Black Iron Crown

Chapter 417: Purpose of the Kingdom of Bazaran

Ezehi was still very afraid of Rainer. He knew that his life and death were all within the thoughts of the Lord Duke, so that afternoon, a businessman from Bazaran, Ajasha, entered the main fort.

"Master Duke, this is Ajiasha!" Ezexi said flatly, looking at Rainer.

"Well, I see, you go down first!"

After Ezehi left the study respectfully, Rainer looked at the Agasha up and down, then pointed to the chair beside him and said, "Sit down!"

Agasha is a chubby middle-aged man. He is wearing a thick black bear skin cloak. He wears six precious gemstone rings in his hands and a golden gemstone necklace around his neck. .

He held the gorgeous and unusual walking stick in his hand and saluted Leiner respectfully, before he put his **** on the chair and waited respectfully for Leiner's questioning.

And Rainer just stared at him and didn't say much else.

This made Ajiasha very nervous. He didn't know what important things this distinguished lord who had control of a huge territory and a huge army and had just been canonized as the Great Duke of the North had to ask him.

Time passed by every minute, and every second Agatha felt like a year had passed.

Half of his **** was resting on the chair, half of his body's fat was pressed on his calf, and the weight of his face made his fat face flow out like fat or sweat, and he looked disgusting.

"Don't be nervous, Ajiasha!" Rainer chuckled and said kindly.

"Duke... Lord Duke, is there anything you are looking for? It is my honor to serve you. Please tell me if you have any needs!"

Ajiasha wiped the fat on her face and said dry lips.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you!" Rainer waved his hand and said, "I just want to ask you something!"

"My lord, I would like to ask, humble, your humblest servant, Agasha, will know everything and say nothing!"

"It's very simple, I want to know, why did you group of businessmen travel all the way from the Kingdom of Bazaran to the northern border to do business?"

"The freight and toll tax along the way will not be less!" Rainer's eyes gradually became serious, as he stared into Ajiasha's eyes and asked.

"Yes...Yes, Lord Duke, but the properties of the Kingdom of Bazaran are too barren. Not long ago, the newly succeeding king suddenly discovered a large-scale recent situation, and he began to buy various products on a large scale. Planting materials and commodities, for the sake of profit, we do not hesitate to come to the far north!"

As Ajiasha said, his body had already shaken into chaff, and the fat on his fat face was trembling.

Reiner looked thoughtfully at the back of the study’s barrier, and then continued: “But as far as I know, you guys don’t let go of any commodities, even the farming tools in the hands of the farmer. Money to buy?"

After hearing Rainer's question, Agasha's face changed drastically. Ai Ai said after a while, "Master Duke, you really know what you are doing. You can't hide such small things from your eyes!"

"This is the way things are. After the new king came to power, he knew that even if there was a gold mine in his hands, if there was no corresponding increase in physical objects, it would only be more metal blocks that could not be eaten or used, so he Large-scale farmland reclamation is being encouraged in the country!"

"Although there are too few products in the Kingdom of Bazaran, some food can still be grown. The new king intends to start from this aspect, and by reclaiming the land, these farm tools will naturally become a hot commodity."

"Even if it travels thousands of kilometers back to the Kingdom of Bazaran, we still have a lot of profit!"

Rainer nodded when he heard the words, but did not believe Ajiasha's nonsense.

When it comes to property alone, the territories of the royal family and the lords of the south and central are much more abundant than those in the north.

Even if the northern border has reached the current level of development, except for honey, wood, animal skins and handicrafts, the products are far inferior to other regions, but in terms of the diversity of commodities, the southern regions far exceed the northern border.

But they still came to the north, which is very worth thinking about.

What are the advantages of the Northern Territory compared with other regions? Apart from animal skins and steel, Rainer could not think of any other specialties.

Honey is produced in forests everywhere.

Timber, there is no large forest in that lord's territory?

Speaking of which, for the lord of this age, the forest is a burden. It would be great if the forest can be turned into land where food can be grown.

Except for the cold in the north and the best quality of animal fur, the forests of other regions are full of beasts. The price of animal skins in the north is higher, which is not necessarily competitive.

With all this in mind, Leiner knew that their real purpose was steel, and it was estimated that they were only buying other commodities to conceal their eyes and ears.

As for why they want steel, it is unclear.

According to Ajasha, the new king discovered gold, and because his position may have been unstable just now, he probably wanted to arm his own powerful army.

But all this is just Rainer's guess.

Thinking of this, Rainer stopped talking, and he didn't plan to prohibit this group of people from buying farm tools and various commodities.

Anyway, Rainer didn't plan to sell steel directly to them.

Just kidding, how much is the value of simply selling iron?

On the contrary, let them continue to buy farming tools, but at the same time they have to buy a lot of other commodities. The tax drawn by Lena is more than that of selling iron. It can also promote the development of local commercial handicrafts. Why not do it. Woolen cloth?

After thinking about this, Rainer lost interest in talking with Agatha, and sent him away after a few words at random.

After Ajasha left, Rainer said to the back of the barrier, "Come out!"

Logan stepped out of the barrier ~lightnovelpub.net~ and said respectfully to Rainer: "What do I need to do? Lord Duke?"

Rainer pondered for a moment and said, "You send someone to the Kingdom of Bazaran to find out where the situation is and see if it is as Ajasha said. To be honest, I don't trust him. He has too many gorgeous flaws. !"

Logan nodded, Leiner didn't ask him to set up an intelligence network, but it was very simple to collect intelligence.

Time passed quickly, and night came in a blink of an eye.

The entire main castle was full of voices, and Rainer's vassals and knights gathered here to wait for the start of the banquet. This banquet will not only be one night, but will last for half a month to celebrate the victory.

The male and female servants kept busy preparing the ingredients, and the three cooks were cooking dishes in the huge kitchen. The cooks who were obese or sturdy were turned around by their commands and hurriedly beat them.

This dinner must be organized perfectly, otherwise they will be severely punished.
