Throne of Vientiane Civilization
Chapter 806 Is this one hundred silver coins gone?
As the clan leader, Locke made such an arrangement, which temporarily stopped both parties.
Counting himself, there were a total of twenty-one wood elves. The purchasing team that rushed to Xishan City quickly determined the candidates and reported them to Xiao Li, who was the receptionist.
"A carriage can accommodate eight people. If there are twenty-one people, it is best to rent three. In addition, if you need to make a large purchase, you may also need a carriage for transporting goods. You have this Have you decided yet? You can’t rent a carriage anywhere, so it’s best to decide at once to avoid being unable to rent one later.”
When it comes to buying things, the wood elves who have participated in the exchange group are relatively experienced. Of course, they have also considered the carriage that transports the goods.
"Just rent five carriages to transport the goods."
"Okay, the rental price for a carriage is one silver coin per day. Eight carriages are eight silver coins per day. Please confirm the price. Is that okay?"
"no problem."
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were not many horses to begin with, and currently more than 90% of the horses, including inferior horses, belonged to Zhou Xu, so the carriage was definitely not a bad vehicle.
Ordinary people basically rely on two legs to travel. Those with better conditions pay for the carriage and ride in an ox-cart. Those who can ride on the carriage are basically either rich or noble.
If the cost of carriages was to be reduced, the cost would not be reduced unless Zhou Xu put a large number of carriages on the market.
After confirming that the wood elf wanted to rent eight carriages, Xiao Li went directly to the inn to make some arrangements.
If it were any other place, eight carriages would really not be able to be pulled out at this time. Fortunately, there have been many carriages parked here due to various transportation tasks recently.
Coupled with the special status of the wood elf and the warrant from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Xiao Li successfully obtained eight carriages.
"Chief Locke, please pay a deposit of one hundred silver coins first."
[Is this one hundred silver coins gone? 】
Locke was a little confused, but he didn't show it. He handed over a money bag directly. In it was one hundred silver coins that they had counted in advance. Just in case, one was given to each clan member.
This is what the members of the exchange group reminded him, which is to put the money in a purse for convenience. After all, they can't carry a big box around.
Locke never expected that the money bag would leave him before he even covered himself with heat.
But what he didn't know at this moment was that the one hundred silver coins were really just a deposit, and it wasn't enough to calculate the rent.
Eight carriages cost eight silver coins a day, and it would take several days just to go back and forth from Green Forest City to Xishan City.
From Xiao Li's point of view, the wood elves' travel is not cost-effective at all.
Eight carriages? Within their large group, the small-scale caravans also had three or four carriages, or even just one or two, and the carriages were all used to transport goods.
It is extremely rare for three carriages to be used to transport people like the wood elves.
But he had one hundred thousand silver coins in his pocket, and at the same time, his mission was to let the wood elves spend as much as they wanted in their territory.
In this way, he naturally said nothing.
On the contrary, Locke felt empty after handing over his money bag.
Although he didn't understand it at the moment, he also realized that the rental of the carriage was probably quite expensive.
So he quickly pulled aside a tribesman who had participated in the exchange group.
"Why don't we go to Xishan City and buy something in Green Forest City."
Seeing their clan leader's concerns, the clansman patted their clan leader's shoulder nonchalantly.
"Clan leader, please relax, we have one hundred thousand silver coins! One hundred thousand! What does the fare count?"
Obviously, this is someone who hasn't settled the account clearly.
But there is nothing that can be done. These wood elves have been in their big week for a month. In daily life, it is good to be able to recognize numbers. Do you still expect them to be able to count? That's a bit difficult for them.
During this period, Locke felt a little nervous when he heard what the other party said.
If you think about it carefully, their 100,000 silver coins are contained in several large boxes, and what they just paid was a small money bag. Compared with those large boxes of silver coins, it is really nothing.
[Forget it, just think of it as going there to gain experience. 】
With this mentality, they quickly got on the carriage and officially set off, heading towards Xishan City.
During this process, the exploration team headed by Zhang Xuemei also officially entered the basin forest to search for the location of the mineral veins.
During this period, even Ye Jinghong, the director of the Inspection Department, was roped in to cooperate with the work and brought the exploration team to the place where he originally discovered the diamond.
"That's right here. I left a mark on the tree."
As Ye Jinghong spoke, he pointed at the towering tree next to him.
At this point, Ye Jinghong's work is basically over. Even the 'Eye of Peeping Secrets' cannot directly find the mineral veins buried underground.
He was a very busy man now, so he didn't stay here longer and started back on the same day.
Zhang Xuemei and the others launched a more detailed exploration around this area.
Picked up ore on the surface? There is a high probability that this area has experienced crustal changes some time ago, which exposed the ores buried underground.
Now that it cannot be found, it is likely that many years have passed since then, causing the crack in the ground to be buried again.
But for Zhang Xuemei, there are still traces to follow.
After some exploration, she quickly circled an area.
Relevant reports were also sent to Zhou Xu.
After all, they are talents with professional abilities, and Zhou Xu is quite satisfied with the efficiency of work.
"Go and notify the Construction Engineering Department to dispatch a team from the nearest city and rush to the Basin Forest."
Orders here are issued in the form of flying pigeons.
The nearest construction engineering department is right here in Green Forest City.
The current task here, in addition to the renovation of individual building facilities in Green Forest City, is to set up camps in the surrounding mountains and forests.
While it can better provide support to the exploration troops on the front line, it also facilitates their occupation of the land there.
Now that they received the order from Xianyang City, the branch chief here, after thinking about it for a while, directly transferred people from the engineering team in the city to go to the basin forest to perform the task.
The project here, compared to building a mining field, is actually more tiring work than building a road. They have to open a road that can allow carriages to enter and exit quickly, which takes a lot of work.
There was no time to waste time. After quickly confirming the route, they said hello to the wood elves living in the forest, and then called in the logging team to get busy.
As of now, it will take a few months to say the least.
