Otherworldly Castle Era
Vol 4 Chapter 47: Ice ocean cold island
A few thousand kilometers north of Linhai Town in Xiaguo, there is a large island covered in snow and ice all year round in Beiyang.
Because this island has only one season a year-winter. Accompanied by invisible melting snow all year round, it is called "Ice Island"!
"My sister, this year's cold fish are not selling well, how can you spend this ice sea period?" Anna stood in the middle of the hall, reporting this year's harvest to her lord sister with a sad face.
Although there is only one winter in Bingxue Island, because of its geographical location, the residents of the island still divide the "ice period" and "sea water period" according to whether the ocean is frozen or not.
On the lacquered silver wooden chair above the hall, seated a dignified and elegant young woman in a snow-white dress, the Marquis Elsa, the lord of Frozen Island.
Ice and Snow Island is very large, many times larger than the territories of many dukes, but the population is small, all concentrated on the southern shore of the relatively warm island.
It is precisely because of this that the development of the territory or the island has great limitations, and this is also because Aisha is only a marquis.
After listening to her sister's report, Aisha raised her slender right hand and rubbed her eyebrows with her middle finger. She was very distressed and worried that the civilians in her territory could continue to melt the sea ice in the coming spring.
"Sister, can you sell the cold fish to the south?" Aisha thought for a long time before coming up with such a way.
Anna thought for a while and shook her head lightly and said, "My sister, this year will not work anymore. The first blizzard of this year is coming soon. If the sea ships transport the cold fish to the more southern territories, they can’t rush before the ocean freezes Returned."
Aisha listened to her sister's words and felt even more distressed towards the current climate. If the ship cannot transport the supplies back to the ice and snow island before the sea freezes, it will be meaningless even if she goes out to sea.
"Hey~!" Aisha sighed, propped her forehead and whispered: "What's the matter with the war on the mainland? Good days, but nothing to fight."
There were only two sisters, Anna and Aisha, in the quiet hall. Aisha's whisper was heard by Anna who came up.
Anna walked behind Aisha, stretched out a pair of beautiful slender hands that are not inferior to her sister, gently placed them on Aisha's shoulders, and kneaded them rhythmically.
"Sister, don't worry about the war on the mainland. Anyway, you can't fight us here. If the fish sells less, buy a little less, so you don't need to tire your body like this." Anna kneaded. Holding Aisha's shoulder, while softly persuading, she really felt sorry for her sister.
According to Anna, their ice and snow island can be as it is now. Although there are many places that benefit from the deep-sea cold fish that are abundant in the nearby waters, the island is not without other products, and there is no need to be so tired for some fishermen. .
Aisha patted the slender hand on her shoulder and said: "Anna, our island is already remote. If it weren't because our family has been paying attention to people's livelihood for generations, how could we have two sisters today? I know you are good for me, you Just talk about it here, but don’t go outside and talk nonsense."
"I know~, my sister!" Anna reluctantly agreed. Anyway, she has listened a lot. She also knows that her sister values the civilians in the territory very much, but her Anna is different. She values hers. Family, she didn't want her to be so tired every day as her sister.
"Okay, Anna, sister knows that you are doing me good." Aisha held the small hand on her shoulders, turned Anna to her front, took Anna's other hand, held them together, and stared. Anna's eyes smiled softly and said: "But our two sisters must guard the territory passed down by the father, and we can't slack off. There are also civilians, merchants, and nobles in the territory, all of which need to be taken care of by my sister."
"Huh~!" Anna heard her sister's words, turned her head and snorted, angered: "Those noble businessmen don't need your sister to take care of you! The troubles of their sisters early in the day are considered a good thing. "
Aisha chuckled, looking at the dissatisfied sister, she didn't say anything. She, the elder sister, knew about some things, so she didn't have to worry about it by another person.
"My elder sister, this year, I can make the ship go back and forth to the nearest harbour a few times. We can mint more silver coins and go directly to buy the items we need on the island." Anna thought of her purpose of meeting Aisha, and looked seriously. Aisha.
As soon as Aisha heard about the business, she frowned and thought for a while, raised her head, and ordered: "Well, remember not to have too many silver coins, just enough."
"Yes, my elder sister." Anna also knows that you can't cast too many silver coins at once. She knows how greedy the lords on the mainland are. If these greedy lords know that their Ice Island is rich in silver, there will be none in the future. Ann's birthday is past.
If Aisha hadn't had a smooth trade with the mainland in recent years, she wouldn't want to use this very risky method.
Different from the territories south of the Balong River, the territories to the north still have silver coins as the intermediate currency, but the exchange bills and weights of each region are also different, so I want to be a name north of the Balong River. Cross-regional businessmen is a very difficult task.
Because the currencies minted in many powerful territories are different, merchants across regions need to clearly understand and calculate the exchange ratio between various currencies. This is not a simple matter.
"Anna, have you received any news recently? Why did such a large-scale war suddenly break out in the southern part of the mainland? Are these lords violating the "Mainland Pact" and not afraid to trouble them in other territories?"
After discussing the business~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Aisha remembered the culprit who made the trade decline of Snow Island. She was very puzzled. Such a war broke out so suddenly, without any signs.
"My sister, the recent returning fleet brought back this news." Anna heard Aisha's inquiry, thinking about the news she had received two days ago, but Aisha was busy dealing with the issue of wintering for civilians on the island. , She did not report to Aisha in the first place.
Aisha heard the news and got up and immediately asked: "Is there any news? What is going on?"
"My sister!" Anna recalled and replied: "I heard that there was a territory called Xia Kingdom in the south of the mainland that was the first to start the war, and also occupied a basin, and then it didn't take long for other places to be annexed. war."
"Aren't they afraid of other territories uniting to crusade?" Aisha was very surprised at the territories that started the annexation war.
Anna saw Aisha's surprise but shook her head in confusion: "This person doesn't know anymore, and the people who came back didn't say anything, but it is said that it is related to some system."
Aisha saw that Anna couldn't ask much news, so she didn't continue to ask, she just looked at the south and sighed. She didn't know what she was sighing, maybe because of this hard and ugly world. And sigh!
