I Became a Progenitor Vampire

The site of the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce in his memory was located within the range of the Crimson Mage Tower, and the other party would pay him 5 Jinpukes every month as a shelter fee.

Considered an acquaintance.

Under the watchful eyes of several other small caravans, Li De walked to the location of the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce. Li De could clearly feel that the guards around him breathed a sigh of relief.

Because the sky was still dark, before the caravan arrived, the guards of the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce vigil were on alert.

Seeing Li De stop, the group of guards suddenly froze.

What does this Master Master want to do? They have already encountered a robber on the way, do they have to encounter another nightmare at the gate of Green City? !

A guard team captain wearing half-length gray leather armor gritted his teeth and walked in front of Li De, a little wary and a smile on his face.

Master Mage, what do you need to tell us?

Li De looked at him indifferently.

I am the master of the Crimson Mage Tower

This sentence instantly made the team leader breathe a sigh of relief. He knew about the Scarlet Mage Tower. The Jinmai Chamber of Commerce would submit the asylum fee to the other party every month, and he accompanied him several times.

Although I haven't seen the real owner of the Mage Tower, I believe that the other party will definitely have an impression of the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce.

Lord Li De, it's my honor to meet you. The Jinmai Chamber of Commerce is very happy to serve you. I'll have the vice-chairman called, you wait a moment.

His name is no secret in the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce.

Li De nodded, but did not refuse.

In this world, mages and nobles are undoubtedly standing on the top of the pyramid. For this group of businessmen, let alone the captain of the escort team, even the chairman of the chamber of commerce is not qualified to be equal to Li Deping.

Li De turned his head and looked at the more than 30 carriages of the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce. It was possible to deliver goods on this scale at one time. It seemed that the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce was not bad.

But unfortunately, most of the goods on the carriage were empty. I don't know if it was robbed by robbers or lost halfway.

asked curiously.

What is the main business of your Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce? Are these goods stolen?

The squad leader shook his head, his face a little frustrated, We mainly deal in cloth and food, the orcs in the south broke through the border defense line, and the caravan encountered a group of orcs plundering everywhere on the way, and the caravan suffered heavy losses... ..

Yes, Your Excellency Li De, the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce has suffered the biggest loss since its establishment. We were robbed by the orcs of all the cloth and food that were shipped to the border support soldiers.

A middle-aged man wearing a luxurious business suit came to Li De with a wry smile, blond hair, and his shrewd brown eyes were particularly impressive.

Lord Li De, this is the president of our Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce, Laurent Orlando

Go down first, wake up the caravan, and prepare to go back to the city immediately. I will accompany Lord Li De.

Yes, President Laurent

Li De nodded slightly as he looked at Laurent Orlando in front of him. He had seen this man in the memory of the ancestor of the blood family.

And the reputation of the other party is not bad, and the business ability is also called the first class.

Hello Laurent, I originally wanted to find a caravan to rest for a while, and then return to Green City after sunrise, but I didn't expect to meet the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce.

I deeply regret what happened to you, but the suffering will always pass, and I believe that one encounter will not make the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce fall.

The ancestor of the blood race spent most of his time in Green City studying magic, and he didn't care about other things at all.

Therefore, Li De's understanding of Green City's business world is blank, and he intends to contact Laurent to understand the market from the side.

To buy a large amount of food this time, it is necessary to cooperate with the Chamber of Commerce, and he does not have so much energy to buy it by himself.

A bit of surprise flashed in Laurent's eyes, as if he did not expect the indifferent Master Mage to be so approachable.

Your Excellency Li De, although the hope has always been there, the good luck is not on my side this time.

After speaking, he shook his head, not wanting to continue the topic, and reached out to gesture to the tent in the center of the caravan.

Your Excellency, please come to my tent to rest for a while, and then return to Green City together after sunrise.

Li De nodded slightly and didn't ask any further questions. After thanking him, he followed the other party to the central tent.

The space is not large, with wool carpets, bread on a small table, and a half-rolled quilt next to it, which is obviously where Laurent just rested.

The two took their seats, and Li De took the lead in asking questions after a few polite words to each other.

President Laurent, I would like to ask how much is a pound of copper per pound in Green City?

Laurent looked at Li De strangely. A mage asked this kind of question?

When will these high-ranking master masters care about food prices? Even if the civilians all starved to death, it would not be their turn to starve.

Your Excellency Li De, although I don't know why you care about this issue, I have to tell you some bad news.

This year, because the orcs launched a war in advance, a large amount of food on the border was plundered by the orcs before they were harvested.

Therefore, this year's food prices are the highest in the past five years.

The price of a pound of wheat has now doubled to as high as 8 puk, and with the winter months approaching, grain prices are likely to exceed 10 puk.

The goddess of life is on top, the civilians on the frontier are afraid it will be difficult this winter.”

After Laurent finished speaking, his face was solemn, and his eyes were a little unbearable.

Once the rise in food prices will undoubtedly be the first to be affected by civilians, he can already foresee that many people will starve to death this winter, many, many.

Li De felt the oncoming blood and sadness from Laurent's simple words, and it was always the civilians who suffered the most in the war.

But this is not something he can control as the ancestor of the blood clan, he shook his head and began to think about another thing.

One gold poke can be exchanged for 100 silver pokes and 10,000 copper pokes.

An ordinary person in Green City earns only 10 silver poke a month, and he has to support his family. It is foreseeable how much the impact of rising food prices will have on ordinary people.

1 gold puke can be exchanged for 10,000 copper puk, and the price of grain is 8 copper puk per pound. One gold puke can buy about 1,200 pounds of grain.

Rongguang middle pound is a unit of measurement, and its weight is not much different from a pound.

At 1,200 pounds, some savings are enough to feed two families of three for a year.

The 2,000 Jinpukes he brought out can be exchanged for rations for tens of thousands of people for a year.

This batch of grain is undoubtedly enough for his farming plan in the castle.

As long as it can last for a year, no, even through this winter, after the spring of next year, the fertile land behind the castle will be enough to support hundreds of thousands of people.

The only problem now is that he needs to buy this huge batch of grain.

It is foreseeable that the price of food will continue to rise in the future because of the war launched by the orcs in the south. UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com Taking advantage of the fact that the price has not yet reached the limit, the food can still be bought in the market and must be purchased as soon as possible.

How much food does the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce have? I have a business deal with you. I need a large amount of food.

Hearing Li De's words, Laurent's eyes lit up, but his expression dropped again in the blink of an eye.

Lord Li De, the goddess is on top, our Jinmai Chamber of Commerce is going bankrupt, and we have no capital to buy it.

Li De was stunned.

Bankrupt? It's just a loss of goods, not to mention cloth and food.

Although the cloth and food of the thirty carriages were abundant, they were far from precious.

Such a large chamber of commerce can't even afford a single loss?

Laurent shook his head, his eyes filled with despair.

We contacted a seller at the border who dug a mithril vein and produced a sufficient amount of mithril.

You know the preciousness of mithril, an alchemy material, as long as I ship it back to Green City, I will definitely make a lot of money.

But this batch of ore needs a full 1,200 gold pokes. For this business, I sold most of the goods from the chamber of commerce to raise enough, and I owe the Green City Chamber of Commerce 200 gold pokes.

But...damn orcs, one day I'll run over them one by one and drag them to the gallows

The details don't need to be said much, and Li De can think of it. After finally getting a chance to make a fortune, I didn't expect to meet the orcs.

So, I'm sorry Mr. Li De, the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce will no longer exist after the sunrise, and I can't do your business.

Bankruptcy? Thinking that the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce had always had a good reputation in his memory, Li De was not disappointed after pondering for a while, but moved in his heart.

Maybe this is a good opportunity.
