I have millions of wage earners

Walking majestically on the streets of Dunshan Town, feeling the awed eyes of the people on both sides, and listening to the rumors of the people on both sides.

Flynn was actually very helpless.

As a modest man, Flynn himself wanted to keep a low profile.

It's a pity that Flynn is destined to not be allowed to keep a low profile because of his tall, powerful and handsome appearance.

Flynn, who arrived in Shield Mountain Town, was respectfully welcomed to the seat of honor by the businessmen of the Autonomous Committee.

Flynn knew most of the members of the Autonomous Committee, they were all members of the Chamber of Commerce, plus some local gentry.

The autonomous committee that controls the power of Dunshan Town sat down, and Flynn, a village cadre, sat on top, which made Flynn a little embarrassed.

"Mayors, I'm just a small village knight. I'm sorry if you ask me to take the seat."

"My little potato village is just a village leader. I'd better sit down."

The committee members and their entourage laughed when Flynn said he was embarrassed to sit in the upper seat.

"Village? Potato Village?"

"Haha, Master Flynn is really good at joking!"

"Village leader? Master Flynn has thousands of troops. Which village leader is so powerful?"

"Yes, Mr. Flynn, the village leader who has thousands of troops, you can sit in the upper position with peace of mind..."

At the meeting, Flynn first discussed some other business cooperation matters and looked forward to the prospects after the canal was repaired.

The Autonomous Committee also generously donated 50 gold coins to sponsor Flynn to build the canal, and begged Flynn to work more on the defense and security of Dunshan Town.

Because after the Autonomous Committee came to power, the redundant soldiers were disbanded. Now Dunshan Town no longer has hundreds of troops like before, but only a security militia with less than a hundred people.

This kind of force is usually enough to maintain law and order, but after all, Shield Mountain Town is on the border, so the people in the Autonomous Committee are counting on Flynn to be more responsible.

In fact, there is no need for them to say that the defense of Dunshan Town is actually shouldered by Tudou Village.

Previously, Dunshan Town was a border fortress, and Tudou Village was an outpost cannon fodder village in the front.

But now, Tudou Village has been built by Flynn, and Tudou Village has naturally become a new border fortress.

Any monsters from the north who want to attack Shield Mountain Town must first pass through Tudou Village.

Of course, let’s talk about the enemies from the south.

At the end of the meeting, Flynn proposed that he wanted to buy mithril ore.

"I want mithril ore, the quantity is about a few tons. I wonder if my friends from the Chamber of Commerce are interested in doing this business with me?"

Tons of mithril ore?

This is no small business.

The transaction volume will be large and the profits will be considerable, but there are also risks.

Although the merchants in Dunshan Town are powerful, they are still just a business association in a border town. No one dares to take over this kind of business in one go.

It's not that businessmen in Dunshan Town dare not do business worth tens of thousands of gold coins.

Mainly because they have never done this kind of multi-ton mithril mine business before, and they are worried that they will not be able to do it.

In the end, a big businessman from Dunshan Town and a member of the Autonomous Committee made the decision and said: "Sir Flynn, although I have not done such a large mithril mine business, I still have some channels."

"I took over this business in the name of the Chamber of Commerce."

…

The merchants in Shield Mountain Town communicated internally afterwards and provided Flynn with a full 3,000 kilograms of mithril ore as promised.

The price is 11 gold coins per kilogram.

In fact, if Flynn is willing to purchase in small quantities, he can control the cost to an average of 9-10 gold dinars per kilogram.

But such sporadic purchases consume a lot of time and energy, and stability is not guaranteed.

High quality mithril ore in large quantities and want to buy it at a reasonable price?

That's hard.

After all, although Mithril is widely used and distributed, it is ultimately a strategic material. Any country and local lord will be concerned about Mithril, especially large-scale Mithril transactions.

If Flynn had bought one or two hundred kilograms of mithril ore, that wouldn't be a big problem.

But buying several tons of mithril ore at once like this time is likely to attract the attention of relevant people.

The Dunshan Town Chamber of Commerce has prepared 3,000 kilograms of mithril ore for Flynn, and it is fast, convenient and safe, so even if the price is slightly higher, Flynn is willing to do so.

In fact, buying something like mithril ore is very similar to gambling on stones, but the risk is not as high as gambling on stones and losing all your money.

Because mithril mines are basically scattered and irregular associated mines, the mithril that can be extracted from various mithril ores varies greatly.

Flynn once heard that someone extracted more than 1,000 grams of mithril from several kilograms of mithril ore.

But Flynn himself had also received cheating mithril ore from players, which after refining contained only two or three grams of mithril.

Flynn didn't expect to be possessed by the European Emperor.

But buying mithril ore is usually cheaper than buying mithril powder directly.

Because other people buy mithril ore and have to ask a blacksmith to refine it. There are many processes to refine mithril ore, which is very labor-intensive. The average blacksmith can't refine it well, so from mithril ore to mithril powder, this The process cost is not low either.

Therefore, mithril ore is naturally cheaper than mithril powder.

Flynn has NPC as a tool man, which will greatly reduce the cost of refining mithril.

Therefore, it is definitely a good deal for Flynn to buy mithril ore.

Flynn spent 33,000 gold coins to purchase 3,000 kilograms of mithril ore, and finally got about 28,500 grams of mithril powder.

With this result, Flynn is theoretically at a slight loss.

Because if Flynn was willing to spend several months buying mithril powder on a small scale, he could save thousands of gold coins.

For 33,000 gold coins, based on the market price of 1 gold per gram, you can theoretically purchase 33,000 grams of mithril powder.

But in fact, if you buy mithril powder in large quantities in a short period of time, it is impossible to buy it at a fair price - you will definitely have to pay more.

Buying mithril ore in large quantities and hosting the whole process, you should pay extra for such a high-quality service!

Flynn knew that the market situation was like this, so he didn't feel that he was losing money.

After all, there was no way Flynn could wait several months!

After spending 33,000 gold coins to purchase a large amount of mithril ore, plus the cost of building the canal, Flynn spent nearly half of his original savings of more than 90,000 gold coins.

Flynn also realized more why feudal lords were so stingy and unwilling to spend money on infrastructure.

Because it is indeed a huge waste of money!

There is a big infrastructure construction project, not to mention ordinary barons and viscounts, even counts and dukes cannot stand it!

Probably only a lord like himself, who is an infrastructure fanatic, is willing to spend such money, right?
