Dear Broom Knight

Politics is inherently a broken mess of compromises. While none of it is great, at least it's recyclable.

Although Lowry didn't understand or comprehend, he had heard such words before.

Of course, Lowry also understood that Count Gezalk was not the only high-ranking noble who followed Duke Schroeder. The White Dragon King's final decision to target him was indeed because of Lowry.

Providing favors conveniently was something this King was always fluent in.

But even if it was just a side effect, there was indeed an element of 'favor' involved.

Sitting on the bay window, Lowry quietly glanced at the beautiful manor on the hill.

He quickly gave a reply.

"Of course, if possible, I'd really like to try this Gale Wolf Trading Company," he said with a smile. "By the way, where is the royal family's chamber of commerce located in the capital again?"

The White Dragon King chuckled.

Lowry truly never suffered in silence.

His Gale Wolf Trading Company would inevitably cause a great uproar.

However, if his first transaction was with this King of the North's direct trading company, those people would at most dare to refuse to trade with Lowry, but they would absolutely not dare to bring this matter up in public.

And Lowry never cared about others cursing him behind his back.

After all, he had been used to it since he was a child.

Moreover, presumably in Lowry's eyes, not everyone was qualified to discuss transactions with him.

He was also too lazy to deal with so many people who overestimated themselves.

Therefore, when his first transaction was opened with His Majesty, the King of the North, most people should understand that they were only qualified to strive for the favor of this Baron Gezalk… The Gale Wolves were not something they could see whenever they wanted.

However, the White Dragon King now had a feeling that Lowry was truly a born mage.

His personality, which didn't care what others said or did, as long as they didn't bother him or say anything nonsensical to him in public that required him to explain, wasn't considered twisted among mages.

But on the noble side, it was a bit too 'independent'.

No noble can separate from the whole and survive independently… A single tree, no matter how tall or strong, is the easiest to be struck by lightning.

However, this is normal for mages. Their attitude towards being struck by lightning is generally the more the better, bring it on.

Although he had already flown a large circle with Ruthcania in his head, the White Dragon King quickly made a decision: "If you are willing, of course, there is no problem.

However, Lowry, for your first transaction, what do you plan to…"

"I have hundreds of tons of fresh rabbits in my warehouse."

"What?" The White Dragon King was a little skeptical that there was something wrong with his ears.

"Rabbits, I'm very kind. Although I cleaned out the internal organs, the rabbit skins are all there, enough for you to change the winter clothes for your guard team," Lowry replied calmly.

The White Dragon King only felt that Lowry was farting.

Were the key issues those rabbits?

How many people would he have to hire to decompose these rabbits!

Wait…

The White Dragon King said thoughtfully: "You know I plan to start with Pat, right?"

"Is there even a need to think about it?" Lowry replied simply, "Who knows better than them how to drive the Storm Church crazy?"

The White Dragon King silently sighed, and found that he really had to do this loss-making business.

Of course, he could also choose to find rabbits himself… There are certainly forests full of rabbits near the capital.

But, hundreds of tons, he definitely couldn't accumulate in a short time.

However, the White Dragon King thought about it the other way around… Lowry has almost attracted most of the large birds on the northern border in the past few years, and every town and village of his has a small restaurant selling extremely cheap rabbit meat pies.

And then, he was still able to save so many rabbits!

If all of this is equated to money… Then how much money has he lost?

"Lowry, do you, have money in your hand?" The White Dragon King couldn't help but ask, but he quickly felt that something was wrong, and immediately added, "How much do you plan to sell those rabbits to me for?"

"My purchase price," Lowry replied calmly, "This is the bottom price.

Don't worry about whether I have money or not. I can smooth out the cost with time, and with your discounted promotion, I can actually earn back a little… enough for me to collect rabbits for another two years."

The White Dragon King didn't quite understand.

But there was so little commercial activity in Lowry's territory, so he quickly guessed: "Your rabbit meat pie? How is that possible!"

"You're the one who doesn't understand," Lowry sneered, "Rabbit meat is cheap, but it's still meat.

How can a rabbit not be worth 10 pounds of rye?

Rabbit meat pie made with rye, rabbit, and vegetable oil, with a little salt and onion, is priced the same as rabbit meat… As long as one-tenth of my people think that cooking is not as cost-effective as buying this rabbit meat pie, then if the time is long enough, I can smooth out the cost.

Moreover, if the rabbit meat pie is soaked in oil, it can be kept fresh for a month even in summer.

The caravans to my territory will buy a lot… Selling it to them, I will definitely add a little oil money."

The White Dragon King listened in a daze.

Although he had also struggled outside before, he still found it difficult to come into contact with such grassroots things, so he couldn't figure out the cost calculation here at all.

However, he wouldn't think that Lowry would deceive him on this point.

After pondering for a long time, the White Dragon King asked with a puzzled face: "Then why do commoners always say that selling food at a stall can't support themselves at all?"

Lowry couldn't help but laugh: "Did I confuse your brain?

Others can't make money like me!

Let alone the simple problem that the rye, onions, and rapeseed are all from my own fields, and the cost can be reduced to the lowest.

The most fundamental reason is still that I am the lord, and I am doing a small business in my own territory, so I don't need to pay taxes."

And commoners may also usher in some inexplicable 'protection fees'!

The White Dragon King helplessly patted his forehead: "I really am…

Because it was too unbelievable, I was confused for a while.

Indeed, no one can replicate your approach."

Neither can nobles.

After all, no noble would bother with such a small business.

What Lowry wanted was just not to lose money… And all of this revolved around the basic requirement of 'must buy rabbits', others wouldn't learn from him.

The White Dragon King took a deep breath and carefully calculated the price Lowry gave.

No matter how cheap something is, if the quantity reaches a certain level, it is also a huge sum of money.

The price Lowry charged for rabbits was not high. If the weight of the internal organs was to be removed, then it was indeed a very low price.

Even if Lowry said it so clearly, the White Dragon King would not lower the price because he had already recovered part of the cost.

Their transaction has never been about the rabbits themselves.

As for whether Lowry wanted to clear the warehouse… Even if Lowry was very good at making space equipment, those hundreds of tons of rabbits were really too many, or if he had other ideas, there was no need to measure them in front of the real role of these rabbits.

The most important thing about this matter is that it is both absurd and reasonable.

In the eyes of outsiders, no matter how shocking so many rabbits are, they will only think that it is a convenient move by the White Dragon King and Baron Gezalk in targeting Count Gezalk.

After all, most of the staff in the White Dragon King's chamber of commerce are just the family members of his subordinates, and then there are many people hired from who knows where.

Therefore, the price of these rabbits cannot be kept secret.

According to the price Lowry gave, it was almost like buying rabbit skins and giving away meat, which didn't look like a particularly formal business transaction.

The only problem is the quantity.

Then, in order to process these rabbits, the chamber of commerce will inevitably hire a large number of lower-level people to skin and take rabbit meat.

It is even very likely that rabbit meat will be used as the price to hire them.

Only in this way can everything be processed as quickly as possible.

And in the capital, as long as you hire more than 100 grassroots people, there will definitely be followers of Pat.

There is no need to consider this… According to the usual practice of the King's Chamber of Commerce, they would have to find at least three or four hundred people.

The White Dragon King's previously considered methods of sending messages were simply child's play in front of these hundreds of tons of rabbits.

Even Pat himself is likely to mix in.

The White Dragon King suddenly sighed: "Lowry, it would be great if you came to the capital.

You are simply a good seed born to play with people's hearts."

Lowry sneered: "I can see clearly because I have always been out of the way, including that Count Gezalk.

If you are really in it, who wouldn't be blinded by profit?

Don't say such clueless words, Your Majesty."

The White Dragon King's sigh this time was sincere: "Mages are really difficult to deal with!"

Then he turned the topic back to the most important place: "How is Ruthcania recently?

Is that idiot treating her well?"

"A prospective mother with a lot of leisure," Lowry asked in confusion, "Aren't you communicating with Ruthcania every day?"

The White Dragon King shook his head and smiled: "I really don't know how you grew into what you are now.

You are always particularly sensitive in places that others can't think of, but you seem to be missing a string in some common sense.

How can people who are immersed in love see clearly whether they are happy or not?"
