Dear Broom Knight
#229 - Intrigue with wolves
However, Dorisk also knew that if they were sold normally, they would probably only fetch an extra one or two hundred gold coins, which was a meaningless price for this clearly high-level Gale Wolf.
But as the person who manages the royal palace all year round, especially the one responsible for distributing salaries, Dorisk was very clear that a transaction of several thousand gold coins was really not a small amount.
Even the King's Chamber of Commerce wouldn't think the price was too low and refuse to do it.
However, he doubted whether these wolves would complain to Lorry when they returned, telling him not to do such cheap business in the future.
Therefore, he didn't intend to make things clear.
The Gale Wolf leader, who was fiddling with the money, looked up at him and nodded in realization: "Clearance sale! That's quite normal.
The rabbits in Baron Gezar's territory are really big and plentiful.
That thing doesn't taste good, it's really useless."
He looked up with a longing expression: "Those geese that grow up eating green silk grass are delicious! Fat and tender!"
Then the Gale Wolf glanced at Dorisk with a disdainful look, who in his eyes could only afford to eat rabbits: "But, these rabbits are actually not bad.
Many of the grasses in Lorry's territory are quite special, and the rabbits that grow up eating that stuff are much tastier than the rabbits from other places.
You have good taste."
What could Dorisk say?
Normally, who among the knights who need to consume a lot of food would take rabbits as a main meal?
Who doesn't know that if you eat that stuff as a meal, you'll only get thinner and thinner!
It's just that, it's a bit comical to hear these words from a wolf's mouth… Is there really a wolf in the world that doesn't eat rabbits?
Of course, Dorisk also understood that for the huge Gale Wolves who needed to replenish their magical energy, ordinary rabbits were indeed not considered food.
However, for humans, when there is enough grain to eat, rabbits are meat that can be used to satisfy cravings.
Most importantly, even if the hired commoners were unwilling, they had nowhere to sell the meat in their hands.
This was the most important step.
In the past, didn't the royal family and nobles want to bestow grace upon the people?
They all wanted to, and they all tried to do it.
But giving money would only lead to bad results, giving things… they would only resell them.
At the time, they would happily say thank you a few times, and even kneeling down and crying was normal.
But they would forget it as soon as they turned around.
Dorisk only understood a little bit at his current age.
Don't think that some commoners will raise chickens at home, but they probably rarely put the eggs laid by the chickens in their own mouths.
Even if the chickens are so old that they don't lay eggs anymore, they will only take them out to exchange for daily necessities, such as pots, bowls, ladles, clothes, shoes, and socks.
It is too extravagant for them to eat the things in their hands that can be turned into money.
Otherwise, Vance wouldn't be sure that these hundreds of tons of rabbits filling a hall would make the White Dragon King famous… Free, unsalable meat is the only meat that can really get commoners to put in their mouths.
Many commoners may only have this one chance in their lives to taste meat, and they will naturally never forget it.
Moreover, these meats that are eaten do not require them to pay anything other than labor… Even the common people are really not stupid.
The people who come to bestow grace want something more valuable than these things they give them: their souls and lives.
Compared to these two things, those insignificant things are not worth that value!
Everyone can calculate.
Although Dorisk had a lot to say in his heart, he couldn't possibly tell a wolf and those waiting outside.
He could only smile awkwardly: "Mainly, it's for the rabbit skin.
The rabbit skin from Baron Gezar's territory is of good quality and color."
Although it is not the pure white type, it is also a whitish gray, and the fur is shiny and very smooth.
It is very suitable for piecing together standard wool cloaks.
"That's true." The Gale Wolf leader nodded in satisfaction, and then put the coins that he had secretly counted three or four times… Dorisk really tried hard to pretend so that he wouldn't appear to have noticed… back into the bracelet on his paw.
"I'll return the space bag to you." The Gale Wolf leader said disdainfully, "That thing is useless at all, it's full after putting in two rabbits!"
Dorisk was speechless.
He couldn't possibly say that humans use such small space bags mainly to store money and some small things they don't want to lose, right?
But these words are meaningless to wolves.
Don't think that these Gale Wolves all wear large space bracelets, but that's only because there are too many rabbits and their own storage space is not enough.
He could only pick up the small space bag that was thrown on the ground and say with a smile: "Humans are not born strong.
Many people can only use this kind of small bag."
The Gale Wolf leader tilted his head: "Ah! Sorry, I was too much.
I have less contact with humans, and their strength can be considered strong, so sometimes it's easy to get confused.
Next time if I say something wrong, please remind me.
The way we Gale Wolves live is very different from you humans, so it's easy to be too harsh when speaking."
Dorisk smiled slightly: "This kind of small matter is unimportant.
You don't have any malice, I can feel it.
No need to apologize."
The Gale Wolf leader grinned at him, as if he laughed twice: "Then I'll leave, Lorry is still waiting for us."
"Okay." Dorisk waved to him, "See you next time."
"Then, goodbye." The five wolves didn't communicate at all, but at the same time stirred up a gust of wind and disappeared in front of Dorisk in an instant.
"Damn… Can this be called an animal?" Looking at the white clouds in the sky, Dorisk, who closed the window without hesitation, finally uttered his complaint.
The newest and most complete novels are at 6_9_书_吧, first published!
He really thought he was communicating with a cunning and insidious human who knew how to measure.
Although he had long been accustomed to probing each other at the beginning of cooperation with various people, and even trying to suppress each other, but, with a wolf?
Dorisk was still a little nervous.
He had always suspected that Vance said that only he could solve this transaction, and that the Chamber of Commerce director was definitely trying to provide him with an opportunity to return to the royal palace.
Although he hesitated in his heart, Dorisk still resolutely seized this rare opportunity.
He was not so ignorant that he would say 'shouldn't' when others had paved the way for him.
But now Dorisk wouldn't think that way.
If it were those stewards who were accustomed to being praised by other nobles, or even people from other countries and church chambers of commerce, something really big might happen.
These Gale Wolves are very good at using their powerful strength to bully others… After discovering that Dorisk was unmoved by their aura, they switched to verbal suppression.
Obviously, the Gale Wolves were ready to continue doing business in the future.
But their understanding of the Chamber of Commerce is still different from that of humans.
They do have some awe of the White Dragon King, but that's because the King of the North is indeed powerful, and there's also Luskania.
Other merchant groups, if they don't have a merchant group manager who can not be at a disadvantage under their aura, and no leader who can withstand several level 16 powerhouses, it is estimated that these wolves would have a different attitude.
How could Lorry let them come out like this?
Dorisk shook his head in confusion… He could only go back and discuss it with Vance.
He had more important things to do now.
Walking to the corner of the room, he pulled a sliding rod, and a rumbling sound came from all around the hall… Then, the wall opposite the window fell down together.
Revealing hundreds of people sitting on the floor in a row, dressed in extremely simple clothes.
In front of them were old but very clean oilcloths, and on the oilcloths were two wooden knives of different sizes.
Dorisk could feel how hot these people's eyes were on the mountain of rabbit meat.
Therefore, he quickly clapped his hands twice.
A row of palace servants wearing oilcloth aprons quickly walked in from the side door… This hall only has that side door, which is the real door.
The others, even if you can see them, or even open them, are fake.
No, you can't say they're fake, they just lead to some rooms inside the Chamber of Commerce.
Originally, this place was actually used by the King's Chamber of Commerce for large transactions and small auctions.
Although guests are allowed to leave early and even keep their identities secret, the Chamber of Commerce will not allow people to walk around randomly… Especially in cases where someone might bid but not pay.
These rooms are prepared for this purpose.
Once it is determined that the guest is ready to leave, there are enough random passages for them to take.
The palace servants methodically took rabbits from the rabbit mountain one by one, put them into the large space bags in their hands… each could hold at least 40, and then put them one by one on those oilcloths.
The people who got the rabbits, although they looked eager to try, did not directly start, but put their eyes on the two middle-aged men standing in front of them in short clothes and long oilcloth aprons.
Only after everyone's oilcloth was full, were three rabbits each placed on the desks in front of these two.
"As I said before, the two of us will do three more demonstrations.
Including the previous few times… If you still can't do it, then don't blame the Chamber of Commerce for sending you away.
The Chamber of Commerce is doing business, not bestowing favors, understand?"
The middle-aged man standing on the right said loudly with a serious face.
The hundreds of people below all nodded seriously… The fact that not a single person spoke shows that they have actually been studying for a while.
Dorisk looked at all this with satisfaction and finally smiled from the bottom of his heart… Although his brain is not as good as Vance's, he is not completely useless.
His Majesty the King still needs him.
