“This territory seems to be called Eagle.”
The leader of the caravan thought about it.
His deputy took out a simple map from his arms, took a look and said:
“Called Eagle Leader”
“”Oh, yes! Lord Long Eagle!” The chief nodded, stroked his beard and said,”How are our gifts prepared?”
According to the management, any caravan that comes to a new territory must visit the lord and present gifts.
Of course, for some big lords, it is impossible to meet every caravan.
But whether the lord receives the caravan is one thing, and whether the caravan presents gifts is another.
In some larger territories, these have long become well-known rules.
But this caravan came to Long Eagle Territory for the first time, and at this time they didn’t know what the rules of Long Eagle Territory were.
“We are ready! I just don’t know how the lord here has an appetite. If he has a big appetite, I am afraid it will cause trouble.” The deputy said in a deep voice
“I hope you are not too greedy! It is not easy for us to come here! If it is not too much, we can only compromise.”The leader sighed.
“What if the other party asks for too much?”The deputy asked
“Then next time, you can’t go here!”
After the leader finished speaking, he shook his head and stopped talking.
Then, he began to observe the surrounding scene.
At this time, the caravan was still some distance away from the Long Eagle Territory. From a distance, they could see a small town like a sparrow sitting on the high ground in the distance. There was a forest on the right side of the caravan, and they drove along a path on the edge of the forest.
There was a big river flowing out of the forest, and there were many aquatic plants such as reeds on the riverside.
“This place is too remote!”The deputy sighed as he looked around.
“It’s good to be remote. Remote means that production is backward and things are worthless. If we can get some goods from here, we might be able to make a lot of money by selling them to the capital!” The leader smiled slightly.
After a pause, he said:
“However, the backwardness of remote areas also shows that these people are lazy. Look at the big river in front of us, there are so many fish in it. If these people can be more diligent, they can catch these fish, sprinkle salt on them and dry them…
It doesn’t matter. After all, this is the first time we have taken this trade route. The purpose of opening up a trade route is not to make money, but to make a nest!”
“You mean, even if they didn’t know the value of these fish before, as long as we announce the price and say we will come back to buy them next time, they will do it?”When the deputy followed him, he always took the mature trade routes, so he could only guess about these principles.
As for this caravan, it was indeed the first time they came here. Their purpose this time was to open up new trade routes.
Each trade route will bring unlimited business opportunities to a caravan.
Even if other caravans come to this trade route to share a share later, the caravan that opens up the trade route will always make the most money.
After all, the pioneers often reach agreements with most of the merchants in the territory at the very beginning.
Coupled with the friendship brought by long-term transactions, this is not a foundation that later caravans can shake.
And the local people who trade with the caravan will inevitably become rich quickly in the local area, and then become the richest merchants in the local area.
In other words, the caravans that cooperate with the rich merchants in each territory are generally the pioneers of the trade route.
Unless the caravan that opens up the trade route is self-destructive, the price or other aspects are squeezed too much, causing the other party to change partners.
Under normal circumstances, this situation is not common.
There are many smart people in the caravans that have the courage to open up trade routes and open them successfully, and they will not do things like exhausting the pond to catch fish.
“That’s right! This time is to pave the way for future acquisitions, and it is also a way to find out the appetites of the lords along the way.
If we can deal with the local lords, at least everything will go smoothly in this territory!
And, do you see that mountain on the left?”
The leader is obviously focusing on training his deputy, and teaching him hand in hand along the way.
The deputy turned around and saw a winding mountain range on the left, like countless giant beasts entrenched, and the mountains and forests were shrouded in clouds and mist.
“Do you mean that there are business opportunities in this mountain range?”
“That’s right! There is also the forest on the right. This Long Eagle Territory is a good place! Even if the lord is not strong enough and cannot go too deep, he can still get a lot of resources from the outskirts of the mountains and forests.
Meat, fur, and if you are lucky, there are ores, even extraordinary ores.
These things can’t be sold at a high price here. Even for extraordinary ores, one or two gold coins is the most. If we can take them out, you know the price outside.”
Hearing this, the deputy took a breath.
He thought that opening up a trade route would bring huge business opportunities, but he didn’t expect it to be so big!
Looking at the deputy’s expression, the leader suddenly felt a sense of superiority in his intelligence and knowledge, and smiled:
“You didn’t understand why I spent a lot of money to hire wandering knights as our guards. Now you should understand, right?”
The deputy thought of how he tried to persuade the leader to recruit wandering knights, and his face was filled with shame:
“Chief! You are really knowledgeable. If I hadn’t come with you personally on this trip, I would never have thought that………”
When Chief Martins saw his expression, he burst into laughter:
“Wood! Don’t act like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world. You are the deputy captain of the Heim Caravan. If you tell others about it, you will be embarrassed by me!” Deputy
Wood smiled awkwardly.
Martins was silent for a while, and suddenly stretched out his hand to stop the team.
“The mountain of gold is right in front of us, but sometimes, whether we can get it or not does not necessarily depend on ourselves!
Go, Wood, take a few people to the castle to meet the lord here.”
……
“A caravan passing by?”
Richard was a little surprised.
Even a caravan wouldn’t pass through such a remote place like Changying Territory. Now a pioneer has arrived, which is quite interesting.
“Rhodes, go meet them. If there is no problem, bring them to see me!”
“”Yes! Sir!” Rhodes saluted respectfully and then retreated.
Richard smiled.
The arrival of the caravan was good news for him, and Richard would naturally not refuse the fat sheep that was delivered to his door.
