Lord Harland.

If you want to open this magical equipment, you not only need to devote mental power, but also need to recite a special incantation, and you must recite it with a Chinese accent to form a special resonance with the Star Bottle and open the space of the Star Bottle.

Now that he had obtained the mysterious bottle of starlight deep in the Grand Duchy of Stanik, Richard did not dare to recite the spell casually to prevent others from noticing the accident and causing trouble.

He carefully hid the bottle of starlight and prepared to open this magical equipment after returning to his territory to see what he found inside.

The next day Richard brought Soros to the Linus slave market.

Richard walked around the market for a while, and found that the price of slaves in the Grand Duchy of Stanik was slightly cheaper than that in the Kingdom of Grant.

The price has moved down by about five percent.

Linus slave trading market is very large, larger than the slave market in Nolan, the capital of Grant Kingdom.

The quality of slaves here is also higher. Not only are there professionals selling them, but there are even some slave artisans.

Li Cha searched and found that there are slave artisans who can burn glass, but the price is not cheap, and the technical level is also very average.

Richard was about to find the largest slave merchant, but unexpectedly he met an acquaintance.

The man's name was Byers Fanta, and he was a slave trader.The Fanta family is a vassal of the Duke of Guise and a hereditary viscount in the southwestern part of the Kingdom of Grant.

The biggest business of this family is the slave trade, and catching slave traders and selling them is their biggest source of income.

I didn't expect to meet again in a foreign country.

"Mr. Byers, we meet again."

"Master Richard, why did you come to the Grand Duchy of Stanik to buy slaves?"

"I'm not afraid of embarrassment, so I'll talk to you about this matter. Because I bought salt from Duke Jonathan, I offended Archon Jerram. In order to prevent Jerram from causing trouble for me in the capital, I came to Linus Buy slaves.”

"Master Richard, if you need slaves, you can go directly to the Duke of Guise and talk to my uncle. We can deliver the goods to your door. Of course, the price is a little more expensive than the Nolan slave market."

The most fundamental reason why Richard came to the Grand Duchy of Stanik to buy slaves was that he did not want to deal with the nobles of the Grant Kingdom.

There are many new things in Harland's territory, and their strength is developing rapidly, which has attracted the attention of some interested people.

Nowadays, the territory of Harland restricts the entry and exit of the population, and outsiders are not welcome. If you want to infiltrate the territory of Harland, the best way is to plant spies from among the slaves.

And to buy slaves from the Grand Duchy of Stanik, because Richard has no conflicts with the nobles of the Grand Duchy of Stanik, but there is no hidden danger.

"Next time if you need anything, you must go to the Duchy of Guise and talk to Baron Fender. Mr. Byers, when you come to Linus this time, you are still doing slave business."

"Yes, in fact, it is only kilometers from the Duke of Guise to Lynas Castle, and kilometers to Nolan. We have always had a trading station in Lynas, and the slave trade has also been done for many years."

"How many slaves do you have here, take me to see. We trade between the two sides, and we don't even need to exchange foreign exchange, which just saves a handling fee."

"There are a lot of slaves, more than 2,000 people in total, and there are four indentured servants. Their prices are more expensive."

Richard and Byers came to the store of the Fanta family and looked at the quality of the slaves.The number of ordinary slaves is just over , which add up to gold coins.

More than a hundred slave craftsmen are more expensive, including carpenters, blacksmiths, bamboo craftsmen, tailors, coppersmiths, shoemakers, gold and silversmiths, etc. These craftsmen are generally older. Many of them have gray hair and wrinkles on their faces. The average age is close to forty years old.

Despite this, more than a hundred artisans add up to more than three thousand gold coins, and the average price of artisans is much higher than that of strong slaves.

Richard also spent a huge sum of gold coins to buy several glassmakers from other slave traders, planning to improve the glass kiln technology after returning to the territory.

If large pieces of glass can be successfully fired, greenhouses can be made in Harland Territory.

Even if the cost is higher, Li Cha can still eat fresh vegetables in winter, and the quality of life will improve a lot.

In addition, after the opening of the hospital, glass bottles are needed, and magicians also need glass containers to do many experiments.

They are all purchased from Viscount Roman, which will cost a lot of money.

An ordinary glass infusion bottle costs four silver coins, which is more expensive than a month's salary of an ordinary citizen.

Farmers living in the countryside can probably buy a glass bottle with the money they can save every year.

The dozens of glass infusion bottles that Li Cha bought at one time are now important property of the hospital.

This situation must be changed by Richard. He could not find a glassmaker at all from Heihe Fort or Wright Fort, and Richard knew little about burning glass.

Now that he has successfully purchased a glassmaker from the Grand Duchy of Stanik, even though the technology is average, the price is expensive, and the price-performance ratio is not high, Richard did not hesitate at all. He opened a glass kiln not just to make money.

The four indentured slaves at Fanta Family Store are not high-level, they are all Tier and Tier professionals, and there are three or four years left in the signed contract.Among them is a Tier knight with strong combat power. Although the contract period is relatively short, the price is the most valuable.

Because the contract is about to expire, the price of a professional contract is not very expensive.

For three hundred gold coins, four contracts can be obtained smoothly.It is cheaper than hiring a professional.

Because these indentured slaves had already established families in the Fanta family, Richard bought their relatives back together.

In order to buy people's hearts, Li Cha turned all the family members of these professionals into contract slaves.

Anyway, in the territory of Harland, except for the orc slaves, the rest of the population was converted into contract slaves.

Making people slaves for a lifetime is not in line with Richard's worldview.

Moreover, slaves are not free, so naturally they will not have a goal to strive for.They do not have the ability to consume or create. No matter how many such people there are, it will not be conducive to the development of the territory in the long run.

It is precisely because the slaves have hope and ambition.The talents cultivated by Harland's territory will continue to emerge.

There are already more than ten officers who have advanced from slave soldiers to professionals.

The directors of brick kiln factories and iron and steel factories were all promoted from slaves. They did a good job, contributed their ingenuity, improved production technology, and accelerated the development of productivity.

It is precisely because of these people's silent contributions that Harland's territory can develop rapidly.

Richard carried 20,000 gold coins and spent more than 13,000 from Fanta Trading Station.

Next, Richard spent 5,000 gold coins to purchase 1,100 slaves from a larger slave merchant.

At this moment, the number of slaves in his hands has reached 3,300. It will also cost a sum of money to bring these people back to the Harland territory.

Richard used the remaining funds to purchase a large amount of grain, horses, and vehicles, and left Linus Castle in a mighty manner and returned to the Grant Kingdom.
