Chapter 168: Unequal Transaction

Origin calendar has been used recently [to be honest, I have been using it recently, both Android and Apple can use it. ] 492 years and the 8th day of the month recently

Negan Kingdom, Fernocheng, Western Port

"I think you are exaggerating, right? It's only been a short time, and you have directly changed to a ship with a displacement of 8 [to be honest, I have been using it recently, both Android and Apple can use it.] ?"

"Do you have it?"

"Yes, and it is the same as your previous model, both of which are dyadic airships."

"That's fine. By the way, can I install weapons directly on it?"

"This... is OK. But you have to go to the city hall to apply for a license, and accept military inspections at regular intervals."

"Okay."

That said, Tulo, who had discussed things with the owner of the boat rental company, would definitely not go to the city hall obediently. After all, as long as he had a flexible mind, everyone could guess how he became rich overnight.

It's just that the little emperor of the Kahn Empire didn't mind his losses, and had been building a trading post on the other side of Fernocheng to conduct "unequal" transactions with the Kingdom of Negan.

So, Tulo did not say anything and continued to prepare for his reselling of cheap knives and porcelain. Anyway, he was not cheating his own people, and those wealthy natives were very willing to donate generously. In general, this is the best of both worlds.

"Look at you, do you know how much money you have made now?"

"Isn't it just that I have been using Wan Xifu recently? So didn't I ask you, Meilan, to acquire that knife factory? With the support of a knife factory, I can make money with confidence."

"If the boss knew, he would probably be mad to death."

Thanks to Meilan's acquisition, the knife shop that was clearly pointed out by Tulo as having poor quality has now become a factory with more than 100 employees. Therefore, the boss of the knife factory continues to produce poor quality knives for the natives on the one hand, and on the other hand, he really studies how to forge first-class knives.

Of course, with the large amount of gold, silver and copper coins from the Kahn Empire, the City Hall of Fno City has already written Tulo into the little book.

After all, the Kingdom of Negan, which lacks copper and gold and silver, will never give up any form of channels to obtain gold, silver and copper, even if it means launching wars to seize one mine after another.

But now...

Tulo himself is also clear-headed, and he will not use force if he can. The number of citizens in the Kingdom of Negan is limited, and it is simply impossible to invest in some long wars.

Therefore, the necessary "peaceful" means are the way he chooses. Anyway, the Kahn Empire has a lot of coins, enough to pick up a "treasure sword" worth more than ten or twenty gold coins from him and take it home.

But everyone knows in their hearts that his "treasure sword" is not worth more than ten or twenty gold coins?

Even to put it bluntly, one gold coin can actually buy three hundred of his swords. But there is no way, even if the natives know the tricks inside, they have no way, but to pay money and buy it obediently.

And Tulo himself enjoyed one thing very much, that is, if the natives did not have enough money in their pockets, they would directly call a cart to transport money from other places for trading.

Although the natives' exchange of one gold coin equals one hundred silver coins equals ten thousand copper coins seems reasonable, it is proof that the natives are uncivilized and have no culture.

The Black Dragon God said that the mountains of gold and silver are not endless, and one day they will be dug up by completely greedy people. Therefore, learning from the Iron Fist Empire to issue paper currency and protect its own mineral resources has become one of the basic national policies of the Kingdom of Nigan.

As for whether the natives will have a shortage of money, it is not the business of a merchant who sells precious swords with good intentions, especially when he got off the boat and continued to sell the knives he purchased to these jubilant natives.

"I say... Boss, do you have a longer sword?"

"Longer sword?"

Listening to the description of one of the natives who could learn his own language by himself, Tulo quickly realized that something should happen in the Kahn Empire.

But a longer sword, no, it should be a longer knife that needs a lot of time to prepare. Even though his knife factory already has the ability to mass-produce machine-made knives, he still needs time to debug.

After all, no employee at the knife factory can produce a longer knife that is longer than the one I have been using recently [To be honest, I have been using it recently, Android and Apple are both available. ][To be honest, I have been using it recently, Android and Apple are both available. ] centimeters.

"Yes, we still think the 8cm sword you sold us before is not long enough."

"Let me think about it. Your request... um... is not easy to do. And I can't guarantee that the sword I sell to you will be straight. There may be some curvature."

"Curved sword? That's even better! Then order ten 8cm swords."

After selling another ship of knives, Tulona was thinking alone, and Meilan, who asked other sisters to count the income, came to his side.

"I almost said the knife again."

"Alas, these indigenous people have different concepts from us. They basically call any cold weapon that is more than 5 [to be honest, I have been using it recently, Android and Apple] centimeters as swords."

"Is it because they've been fighting with swords all this time?"

"That's right. To be more precise, they seem to regard weapons and equipment like swords as inferior things that cannot be placed on the table. Everyone regards swords as weapons that warriors should use."

"snort!"

Listening to Tuluo's disdainful words, Mei Lan wondered why Tuluo despised the indigenous people. Due to differences in cultural concepts, the Kahn Empire, which insists on putting swords above swords, will never admit the fact that swords are more practical than swords.

Mei Lan took this matter very lightly. The indigenous people have never experienced the torturous battle of life and death, and they do not know the meaning of efficiency and cost that can determine life and death.

According to the practice of the Iron Fist Empire, the time it takes to forge one long sword is enough to forge three knives of the same quality and length.

Not to mention that when it comes to maintenance, knives are far better than swords. Even if the indigenous people invented the term "single-edged sword", this would not change the fact that the indigenous people actually used the sword as a sword.

At the same time, Tuluo also began to pay attention to the natives outside with swords on their waists. Most of these guys who should theoretically belong to the samurai class were playing with the swords in their hands to intimidate the surrounding civilians.

If there is really going to be a war, those who hold swords will basically be the first batch of cannon fodder to go up to them. Moreover, they are definitely cannon fodder that will die faster than the spearmen.

As for why...the attack distance and force-generating skills are as simple as that. Even those with swords or knives should remember to carry a shield when going into battle. As long as the formation is not constructed well,

The opponent can knock himself over with one thrust of his spear.

Therefore, the five of them immediately started the engine and returned to Ferno City before the sun went down. After confirming everything, Turona began to formulate the next plan...
