Dark Fairy Tale: Tyrant, Conquer Cinderella at the Beginning

“Mr. Martins, we are finally here!”

Deputy Wood looked at the wheat field in front of him with a happy face, but there seemed to be a trace of worry in his eyes.

“Yes, we are finally here. We have invested so much money this time, I hope everything will go well!”Martins was not relaxed at all.

The last time he brought the caravan back, he contacted a marquis through his previous connections, and then presented the heart of the tree spirit that he had traded from Richard. The marquis was naturally very happy. After all, the marquis was not young, and having this tree spirit heart to prolong his life could be said to be a timely help.

In addition to the material rewards given to him, the benefits that the marquis gave Martins also included many other invisible benefits.

In the future, as long as his goods arrive at the marquisate, they will receive certain care from the marquisate, and even the high tariffs collected before will be reduced by half for five years!

For him, these tariffs are trivial matters. The most important thing is that he and the marquis have this relationship as an endorsement. In the future, the shops in the marquisate will definitely give priority to cooperating with him. work.

These are all long-term interests.

After dealing with the affairs of the Marquisate, he also dealt with the extraordinary materials he had harvested that time.

And he did not forget Richard’s request at all.

After all, Richard wanted food, iron ore, and slaves, and the more the better, as many as he could get.

He had never done such a big deal before, and they were all small amounts of resources and small fights, so when he had this opportunity, he naturally did not want to give up.

As the saying goes, wealth and honor are sought in danger. If you take a gamble, you will stew geese every day in the future, and girls will line up by your bed.

But it is precisely because what he had done before was a small business compared to this.

Those who do business know that not all transactions can be paid in cash, and it is common to have inventory pressure.

As the business grows bigger and bigger, and the stalls get bigger and bigger, the money earned by the merchants is also invested in more many places.

After all, the money in your hand is worthless. Only by spending it can you bring in more income.

In this world without the so-called financing mechanism, for most people, the development of the industry is generally accumulated little by little and grows step by step.

So when a person encounters an opportunity that jumps out of the rhythm of his own development, not everyone can grasp it.

Because they will not hold a large amount of cash in their hands for a long time.

This also makes it not so easy for Martins to buy a large amount of supplies.

So there are only two ways in front of Martins.

One is to let other chambers of commerce share a piece of the fish that he can’t eat alone and make this business.

But with the funds in his hands, if he really takes this step, he may be kicked out in the end.

He saw Richard’s indifferent attitude towards him , thinking that Richard would not have any feelings for him. If other caravans really contacted Richard, Richard would naturally accept them.

Martins could not and would not give up the opportunity to make a fortune.

So there was only one other way left.

That was to use the reputation of his family to rent a ship, and at the same time mortgage part of the industry to get a sum of money to purchase materials.

After careful consideration, Martins decided to do it.

During this period, he went to various cities and continued to purchase food, slaves, and iron ore. When the money in his hand was spent, he borrowed from others based on the reputation of his family.

After rushing and hurrying, he finally arrived at the time agreed by himself and Richard.

In the process, Martins’ mood changed from excitement and excitement at the beginning to heavy as the sunk costs increased.

He began to worry that this gamble with his life and property would completely destroy himself and his family?

If Richard broke his promise, or could not come up with enough money to purchase the goods brought by Martins, then Martins would be doomed to bankruptcy!

But at this point, he could only choose to move forward.

However, in order to ensure the smooth transaction and to distrust the lord, Martins finally spent extra money to hire a team of mercenaries to protect himself.

After all, the lords on this continent don’t have a good reputation.

“Captain Boden, you have to have everyone protect our ship! This lord has a bad temper, I’m worried he might rob his fellow thieves!”

Martins looked at the bearded man on the deck with a bottle of wine in his hand.

The man sneered:

“In such a remote place, with us here, who dares to touch you? Why don’t you ask about the name of our Black Gold Mercenaries!”

“Yes, yes, yes! I came to you because I knew the name of your Black Gold Mercenaries! I am just worried!” Martins smiled.

Captain Boden rolled his eyes:

“If you ask me, you can just sign a slave-hunting cooperation agreement with me, and I will ride your ship to help you capture the 4,000 people in this territory, and you go back and sell them. Isn’t that violence!”

“That won’t do! A one-time deal is definitely not as good as a long-term deal, and this is not a long-term deal! After all, even if we really want to do it, the lord is still a knight!” Martins said.

Captain Boden sneered, then looked at a small man not far away:

“”Jans! Show us your power and open our customers’ eyes!”

The little man turned his head and smiled slightly. The next moment, his power changed instantly. A cold breath filled the entire deck. Except for Captain Boden, everyone, including Martins, was trembling with fear.

“How…how come he is also a knight?” Martins smiled bitterly,”The money I paid is not for two knights!”

Boden waved his hand to make the man stop his momentum, then reached out and pulled Martins up and said:

“You’ve made a profit this time. James bred the seeds of life on the road, and you just didn’t notice it at night. Don’t worry, we won’t charge you extra money. Our mercenary group still has credibility!

What do you think? Don’t you consider my previous suggestion?”

Martins waved his hand quickly:

“You can’t do anything reckless, otherwise, without the authorization letter, you will have to bear the consequences! Without the cooperation of our caravan, even if you kill us and capture the slaves here, your Black Gold Mercenary Group does not have the qualifications to sell and trade large numbers of slaves!”Boden was speechless, he really had no way to do this.

Normally, if you really want to do it, you must at least sign a slave-catching cooperation agreement with the caravan, negotiate the cooperation share, and then both parties sign and press fingerprints.

But in order to avoid the caravan’s military power being unable to compete with the mercenaries and eventually being forced to sign, there is a relevant regulation that when the caravan returns to the headquarters, it will be stamped with the seal of the Chamber of Commerce headquarters to make it completely effective.

As for whether the caravan will regret it at that time, and even blame others and say that they were forced, they don’t have the courage.

If they don’t want to be robbed or even killed when they go along the trade route in the future, they won’t be so stupid.

So now Martins disagrees, and Boden has no choice.

But Martins thought about it and said:

“If the other party has no money to trade with us, or wants to forcibly take the goods, we will sign an agreement then!”

Boden thought about it, raised his eyebrows, and then agreed, and then looked at his deputy captain, Jens.

The two have been working together for a long time, so they naturally know what it means.

This is to plan that even if the lords here will trade normally, they will deliberately find fault and provoke the other party.

When there is no room for maneuver, the caravan leader Martins will naturally choose to sign a cooperation agreement with them in order to recover the losses.

As for the lord being a knight, they have two knights!

In front of the knights, any other ordinary people are nothing but chickens and dogs!

As long as Richard is dealt with, no matter how many other people there are, they are just a mob and can be manipulated at will! (To read the violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

At this time, the big ship slowly stopped, and someone on the shore shouted:

“It’s the Heim Caravan! Wait a minute, until we finish building the dock, then you can come over!”

“”Okay!” shouted Wood, the deputy of the caravan, and then turned to look at Martins.

Martins nodded:

“Drop the sail and throw the anchor into the water!”[]

“”Loose the sail! Drop the anchor!” Wood shouted to the back.

Soon, the boat stabilized in the river very close to the dock.

“Martins, they are building the dock very quickly. If we need to do it, we can take these people out and sell them for a high price!”

Boden stood on the deck with his hands folded, watching the people working by the river with interest.

Martins looked helpless and ignored him.

He really wanted to make this trade route a long-term source of income for their family, which would give their Heim Chamber of Commerce the opportunity to become one of the top ten well-known chambers of commerce in the future!

He was unwilling to destroy his family’s future unless it was absolutely necessary.

“Why is their dock built next to a small mound of earth?” The deputy felt strange,”Why not build it on the flat river bank on the other side?”

Martins said:

“The draft here is deep, and there is actually another advantage. When the time comes, a sling device can be installed on this small hill, which is very convenient for unloading and loading! It seems that the person who chose the site is a talent. There are such smart people here? Is it the idea of their lord?”

He didn’t know that the talent he mentioned was actually Ali, who directed and dispatched the workers below.

……

The workers were very efficient. In just one morning, they built a simple dock.

And they could ensure that even if a carriage was pulling goods on it, it would be stable.

Under the command of the workers, the ship slowly approached the dock.

As the perspective moved, the view behind the hill also appeared in the eyes of Martins and others.

“”What!”

Martins suddenly looked as if he had seen a ghost.

What did he see?

An army!

“”Damn it! Didn’t you say they only have one knight lord and a bunch of pigmen? What’s wrong with this army?”

The captain of the mercenary team, Boden, was also frightened and grabbed Martins and scolded him.

Martins was already confused at this time.

“”I swear, when I came here last time, there was no such a shit army here! Oh my God, what the hell!

Quick! Stop!

Wood, tell someone to hoist the sail, let’s go!”

Behind the hill, an army of 500 people was marching towards the dock. They were well-organized and impressive, and it was obvious that they were not a bunch of ragtag troops hastily put together!

Moreover, they all wore half-breastplates and shiny black full-metal helmets, and the spears in their hands always maintained the same angle while marching, without moving at all!

Martins swore that even when he was in the Marquisate before, he had never seen such an elite army around the Marquis!

“It’s over! It’s completely over! Richard is not a good guy. He hid his army last time just to rob me this time?

No wonder he, a small lord in a remote area, dared to say that he would take as many supplies as he could!

So, Richard had this idea from the beginning?”

Martins fell to the ground, his mind was blank.

At this time, more than 20 mercenaries stood on the deck, each with their weapons drawn, with a cautious and frightened look on their faces.

Boden was so angry that he wanted to kill Martins. If they were caught by these people, they would be in trouble. There is such a shortage of people here, they will definitely be treated as slaves.

And because Martins was worried that the route would be leaked, although their Black Gold Mercenary Group knew that they were on a mission this time, they only knew that they were cooperating with the Heim Caravan and didn’t know where they were going. If they couldn’t go back, the Black Gold Headquarters would at most step on the grave of the Heim Caravan’s destruction, and it would be impossible for them to come to rescue them.

The most important thing now is to escape from here first!

“Damn it! Why hasn’t the boat moved yet!” Boden yelled!

Under the mast, a���Shouted:

“The rope is stuck, and the little monkey has climbed up to clean it up!”

Little Monkey is a nickname for a person.

As soon as the voice fell, a thin figure slid down the rope from above:

“Hoist the sail, it’s done!”

Everyone was delighted and quickly prepared to pull the rope.

On the other side, Richard, who was sitting on a horse, surrounded by four knights, saw everything.

“”Let’s go, it’s time for us to go out!”

The next moment, five horses galloped on the hill, and when they reached the edge, they all jumped into the air, as if five tigers were coming out of the mountains.

With a few loud noises, five people and five horses landed steadily on the deck. Then, the five knights led by Changying opened their auras, and the entire deck was in chaos!

The fire of the red dragon, the fierceness of the violent ape, the courage of the wild bear, the speed of the cheetah, and the coldness of the venomous snake were wildly stirring up the surrounding world.

At this moment, except for them, no one dared to stand and look at them.

Even Boden, who had previously clamored to make trouble, had already thrown his weapon to the ground where he could not reach it, and squatted on the ground with everyone, with his hands raised high.

Where is the arrogance!

Where dare you have the courage to raise your head!

At this moment, everyone’s face was pale. They knew that everything on their ship was completely in Richard’s hands!
