Release that Witch

"Starting from the West..." Margaret curiously said, "I don't know if there is a good harbor that leads to the sea."

"Not yet, but we can build one."

She widened her eyes. "His Royal Highness, are you serious?"

"Of course, I should be able to build it next spring." Roland smiled.

In this era, the seaports are all natural, and the man-made port, a huge project that needs to transform the natural landscape, is almost impossible to achieve.

However, he now has the full support of Tilly. After the construction of the house on the sleeping island, the lotus will return to the west again. At that time, the disaster of the evil beast will also recede. It is a day suitable for opening a port.

He got up and pointed to the map hanging behind him. "There is a shoal in the south of Bianbu Town. The water depth is ideal and the area is very suitable. It is enough to accommodate all the facilities needed by the port. With a little modification and flattening the coastal mountains, I can Shipment of materials from the west of the country."

“Renovating the shoal...throwing the mountains, why are these horrifying moves from your mouth, I will have the illusion that they are not difficult?” Margaret said with great interest, “However, you have a dealer. Boat fleet? You know that sea boats and riverboats can be very different."

"Not yet," Roland said. "This is why I hope you can participate."

"I am coming out of the boat?"

“At the same time responsible for transportation and sales,” he added. “Westland only offers goods.”

This is equivalent to the exclusive distribution rights of the fjord area. With the experience of Margaret, it is natural to see the profits contained therein. Self-organizing caravans to go to the fjord to sell naturally can earn more, but Roland does not want to invest too much energy and manpower in this area, he only wants to exchange new funds as soon as possible to maintain the rapid development of the territory. It is a matter of time before the completion of the original accumulation and the implementation of the credit currency.

Sure enough, the businesswoman blinked and asked excitedly, "All entrusted to me?"

"If the price is reasonable." Roland nodded. "If you are willing to represent the overseas trade of the West, we can talk about it in detail. The scope of sale is limited to the fjord, and it must not be lower than the price currently sold to the Chiwanwan Caravan. ”

"That is, of course, the steamboats that do not need to rely on the wind to sail uninterruptedly, it is worth the high price of the cross-sea merchants to buy," she said with confidence. "Sale directly to the fjord islands." I am sure I will double the price."

"And the extra profit, we can share it together." Roland laughed. "In addition, the main product has this in addition to the steam engine." He clap his hands, and the guards waiting outside the hall immediately took a dish and walked in. I saw four or five crystal clear glass bottles, each with a thumb size.

"this is……"

"Open to smell."

Margaret curiously uncovered the cork above the bottle, sniffed it in front of her nose, and her eyes suddenly lit up. "Oh my God, you made a perfume!"

“I don’t know what the products are compared to the Wangdu Alchemy Association?”

“The scent seems to be more intense,” she said, holding the bottle left and right. Obviously, she couldn’t put it down. “Is this made in the Bianque Town Alchemy Square?”

"Almost," Roland also picked up a bottle and put it in the palm of his hand. At his own request, the perfume bottle was made of crystal glass with excellent transparency and a standard six-sided prism. Turn the bottle slightly, and under the light, the perfume inside will change into different shades of color, which is very beautiful. According to the sales philosophy of later generations, exquisite packaging can greatly improve the grade of the product itself. As a fist product to open the fjord market, he naturally has to treat it with care.

Compared with steam engines, perfume is a real low-cost commodity. When Evelyn realized that "the most spicy liquor" is also a kind of drink, high-concentration alcohol is continuously produced from her hands, even the last step of distillation. Saved. As for roses or other flowers with unique scent, they have also been transformed into multi-oil products by smashing two or three flowers, so that the rich floral fragrance fills a jar of alcohol.

"If you like, these bottles will be given to you," he put the perfume back on the plate.

“Really?” Margaret laughed. “Then I will be welcome.”

“I heard that this thing can sell a good price in the fjord?”

“You should know that the perfumes sold by the Wangdu Alchemy Association are very limited every year. The quantity of more than a thousand bottles is in short supply. The big businessmen are especially good at the smell of fish, so the perfume is a regular item for them. After the king sells at the price of five golden dragons, it can be turned into fifteen to twenty golden dragons in the fjord. In fact, a large part of the perfume sold to other regions will be taken away and resold by cross-sea merchants."

Margaret said that this paused. "I don't know how many bottles of perfume you can produce in a year."

"If the raw materials are sufficient, it should be about ten times that of the Wangdu Alchemy Association," Roland deliberately lowered the numbers. He didn't want to sell the profits as cabbage, nor did he want to earn only four or five thousand gold coins a year. As a fist product alongside the steam engine, he hopes that the perfume will bring back the equivalent profit.

"..." The businesswoman was dumb for a while before she said, "Your territory is full of incredible."

"So are you willing to sell these goods for me?"

"Of course, Your Highness," she stood up and stroked her chest. "For me, this is also a rare opportunity."

......

After the general intention was reached, the specific details and the terms of the contract were handed over to Barov for a detailed discussion. Roland returned to the office and prepared to write a letter to Tassa, lurking in the kingdom.

Whether it is taking the initiative to overthrow the fee-funding or exploring new business roads, it is a two-legged approach. He didn't want to put the eggs in a basket, and he hoped to continue to get saltpeter if the attack failed.

This road is self-produced.

In the letter, in addition to mentioning his own intention to attack, another point is to let Tassa contact the salt-making field around Wangdu and acquire a batch of man-made workers to send to the West.

This year, the history of the saltpeter merchants is definitely not very comfortable. When Feikeke banned the export, it also forced them to sell to the alchemy association at a low price. As a result, the profits of the saltpeter will naturally fall. Roland believes that as long as the rewards are generous enough, it is not difficult to pack the factory and buy them together.

The principle of saltpeter production is not complicated. Nowadays, the population of Bianbu Town is growing, and it can meet the large amount of manure required by the saltpeter field. The conditions for self-production have all been met. Before defeating Tefco, it will undoubtedly be the most stable point of protection.
