I have tens of millions of wage earners

Chapter 162
Walking majestically on the streets of Dunshan Town, feeling the awe of the people on both sides, listening to the rumors of the people on both sides.

Flynn was actually very helpless.

As a humble man, Flynn himself wanted to keep a low profile.

It's a pity that Flynn is destined to not keep a low profile because of his tall, mighty, handsome and handsome appearance.

Flynn, who came to Shield Mountain Town, was welcomed by the businessmen of the Self-Government Committee to the seat of honor.

Flynn knew more than half of the self-governing committee, they were all from the chamber of commerce, plus some local gentry.

The self-government committee that held power in Dunshan Town sat at the bottom, and a village cadre from Flynn sat on top, which made Flynn a little embarrassed.

"Mayors, I'm just a small village knight. I'm sorry for letting me sit on the seat."

"My little potato village is just a village head, I'd better sit down."

When Flynn said that he was embarrassed to sit in the top position, the members of the committee and their entourage laughed.

"Village? Potato Village?"

"Haha, Lord Flynn really knows how to joke!"

"Village head? Lord Flynn has thousands of troops, which village head is so powerful?"

"That's right, Mr. Flynn, the village chief who has thousands of troops, you can sit at ease..."

At the meeting, Flynn first talked about some other business cooperation matters, and looked forward to the prospects after the canal was repaired.

The Self-Government Committee also generously donated 50 gold coins to sponsor the Flynn Repair Canal, and begged Flynn to work harder on the defense and safety of Shield Mountain Town.

After the Self-government Committee took power, the redundant soldiers were disbanded. Now Shield Mountain Town no longer has hundreds of troops as before, but only a security militia with less than 100 people.

This kind of force is usually enough to maintain law and order, but after all, Shield Mountain Town is the border, so the people in the self-government committee are counting on Flint to take care of it.

In fact, they don't need to say that the defense of Dunshan Town was actually undertaken by Tudou Village.

In the past, Shield Mountain Town was a frontier fortress, and Tudou Village was a small outpost cannon fodder village ahead.

But now, Tudou Village has been built by Flynn, and Tudou Village has naturally become a new border fortress.

Any demons and ghosts in the north who want to attack Dunshan Town must first step through Tudou Village.

Of course, as for the enemies from the south, let’s talk about that later.

At the end of the meeting, Flynn mentioned that he wanted to buy Mithril Ore.

"I want mithril ore, the quantity is about a few tons. I don't know friends from the Chamber of Commerce, who is interested in doing this business with me?"

Tons of mithril ore?

This is no small business.

The transaction volume will be large and the profits will be considerable, but at the same time there are risks.

Although the merchants in Dunshan Town are powerful, they are only a chamber of commerce in a border town after all. No one dares to take on such a business in one go.

It's not that the merchants in Dunshan Town are afraid to do business with tens of thousands of gold coins.

The main reason is that they have never done this kind of multi-ton mithril mining business before, and they are worried that they will not be able to do it.

In the end, a big businessman from Shield Mountain Town and a member of the Self-Government Committee made a decision and said, "Master Flynn, although I have never done such a large Mithril mine business, I still have some channels."

"I have accepted this business in the name of the chamber of commerce."

……

The merchants in Shield Mountain Town communicated with each other afterwards, and provided Flynn with a full 3000 kilograms of mithril ore as promised.

The price is 11 gold coins per kilogram.

In fact, if Flynn is willing to buy in small quantities, the cost can be controlled at an average of 9-10 gold dinars per kilogram.

However, such scattered purchases are very time-consuming and energy-consuming, and the stability cannot be guaranteed.

High-quality Mithril Ore in large quantities, but also want to buy it at a low price?

That's hard.

After all, although Mithril is widely used, it is a strategic material after all. Any country and local lord will pay attention to Mithril, especially large-scale Mithril transactions.

If Flynn was buying one or two hundred kilograms of mithril ore, then it wouldn't be a big problem.

But buying several tons of mithril ore at a time like this time is likely to attract the attention of relevant people.

The Shield Mountain Town Chamber of Commerce prepared 3000 kilograms of mithril ore for Flynn, and it was very fast, convenient and safe, so even if the price was a little more expensive, Flynn was willing.

In fact, buying things like mithril ore is a lot like gambling on stones, but the risk is not as big as gambling on stones, so that you will lose everything.

Because mithril mines are basically scattered and irregular associated mines, the mithril that can be extracted from various mithril ores is also very different.

Flynn once heard that someone extracted more than 1000 grams of mithril from several kilograms of mithril ore.

However, Flynn himself had also received from players, which only had two or three grams of mithril after refining.

Flynn didn't count on being possessed by the European Emperor.

But buying mithril ore is generally cheaper than buying mithril powder directly.

Because other people buy mithril ore and go back, and they have to ask blacksmiths to refine it. There are many processes in the process of refining mithril ore, which consumes a lot of energy and energy. Ordinary blacksmiths can’t refine it well, so from mithril ore to mithril powder, this The process cost is not low either.

Therefore, mithril ore is naturally cheaper than mithril powder.

And Flynn has NPC as a tool man, which will greatly reduce the cost of refining Mithril.

Therefore, it must be very cost-effective for Flynn to buy Mithril Ore.

Flynn spent 33000 gold coins to purchase 3000 kilograms of mithril ore, and finally got about 28500 grams of mithril powder.

With this result, in theory, Flynn is a little bit disadvantaged.

Because if Flynn was willing to spend several months buying mithril powder in small quantities, he could save thousands of gold coins.

33000 gold coins, according to the market price of 1 gram of gold, theoretically, you can buy 1 grams of mithril powder.

But in fact, it is impossible to buy Mithril powder in large quantities in a short period of time - it must cost more.

Buy Mithril ore in large quantities, and the whole process is managed. This kind of high-quality service should be paid more!

Flynn knew this was the case, so he didn't feel he was at a loss.

After all, Flynn couldn't have waited a few months!

Throwing 33000 gold coins to buy a large amount of Mithril ore, plus the cost of building the canal, Flynn had spent almost half of his original deposit of more than 9 gold coins.

Flynn also realized more why the feudal lords were so stingy and reluctant to spend money on infrastructure.

Because it is really burning money!
To engage in infrastructure construction, not to mention ordinary barons and viscounts, even earls and dukes can't stand it!
Probably only a lord like himself who was born as an infrastructure madman would be willing to spend so much, right?
