The other is that they don't have such a large brain capacity at all, and they don't think about it at all.

As always, these Orc tribes of Odin who came to trade were mixed, and a large part of them had a dual purpose.

If the transaction partner is too weak, they don't mind turning into a horse bandit and making a deal without capital, anyway, these border smugglers are like leeks, cutting a stubble, and a new stubble will emerge in a few days, although they don't know that this is caused by huge interests, at least the other party has been doing this, and they are not worried about no new transactions at all.

If the trading partner is strong, they will trade honestly and obtain the living materials they need.

There are also tribes of horse bandits who don't carry any supplies and are ready to do business from the beginning, and they don't care if they rob border smugglers from the Byron Alliance, or other Odin orc tribes.

But when I arrived at the trading place, I found that there were soldiers from the Broken Blood Castle here, guarding them inside and out, and I couldn't help but tremble in my heart.

Most of these tribes have lived on the border for many years, and have dealt with the Broken Blood Keep for many years, and in recent decades, it is not they who have plagued the Byronic Alliance, but the Broken Blood Keep has in turn scooped them.

As soon as I feel that on the Odin steppe, some tribes are too powerful, and the iron hooves of the Broken Blood Castle will rush in, combing the tribes here, cutting what should be chopped, and slaughtering what should be slaughtered, without mercy.

Over the years, the small and medium-sized tribes of Odin orcs around the Broken Blood Fortress, in order to protect themselves, did not make offerings to the East and West Odin Empires, but paid a certain amount of cattle and sheep to the Broken Blood Fortress as a protection fee, not asking them to protect themselves, but only asking them not to harm themselves.

The county magistrate is not as good as the current management.

The two royal courts of the Eastern and Western Odin Empires are too far away from them, even if they don't pay taxes, they don't necessarily know, and even if they do, they probably don't have the energy to pay attention, and they can't go all the way to crusade against them!

On the contrary, any decision of the Broken Blood Fortress is closely related to them, and sometimes it directly determines the life and death of their entire tribe, and they have to be careful to curry favor.

For this kind of semi-naturalized Odin orc tribe, as long as they do not grow to the extent of threatening the Broken Blood Fortress, even the square and old-fashioned Archduke Cedric will turn a blind eye.

After all, the Orcs of Odin are not endless, as long as the fertile land and grasslands are there, there will be other tribes attracted to migrate over, rather than a group of undisciplined people, it is better to keep a group of tribes who are feared by themselves to occupy the place there, and by the way, raise sheep and horses for themselves.

The relationship between the two big forces is not so strong and absolute, and you have to be separated as soon as you meet, this situation is a minority after all, most of them are you and me, and I have you.

Only when the interests of both sides are irreconcilable, will there be a big fight.

On the Broken Grassland of the Stritch family's fiefdom, there are many Odin orc tribes who can't get along in the Odin Prairie, and they have completely fallen to the Broken Blood Castle, and have come here to herd sheep and horses for them, and have become obedient people in peace and security.

There are also some Byronic people who have been exiled to the Odin steppe, cultivating land for the Odin orcs, among which the Miracle Peninsula is the most.

After the Western Odin Empire captured the Miracle Peninsula that year, it did not slaughter the Byronic people here, but left some people to cultivate the land for them.

After a hundred years of domestication and integration, the descendants of these people can no longer be called Byrons, after all, they were born and raised under the rule of the Odin orcs, and many things have been assimilated by them, and the rule of the Cummins family has become a distant past, and there are few people who still think about their rule in their hearts.

After all, the rule of the Cummins family was harsher than that of the Theodine Empire.

After all, the royal court of the Western Odin Empire was semi-nomadic, and only stayed here in winter, and most of the time they would enter the Odin steppe, as long as they paid their taxes on time and provided them with the food they needed to spend the winter here, few people would levy them violently.

Soon, these Orcs who came to hear the news found that as long as they honestly followed the trading system, these soldiers of the Broken Blood Keep would not only not harm them, but would be their protectors.

For those horse bandit tribes who purely wanted to fight the autumn wind, the soldiers of the Broken Blood Fort were not polite, and immediately used thunder means to suppress them.

These soldiers of the Broken Blood Fortress who live at the bottom know better than Archduke Cedric how much oil and water is in the border trade, after all, some border smuggling is carried out under their blind eye, and there is a part of the benefits that belong to them.

People always have to eat, and the supplies supplied by the Byron Union are tight, and they can only find ways to subsidize their families.

Now that Archduke Cedric has decided to open the border to each other, he naturally has their strong support, and they can handle many things properly without any orders from above.

The large number of free aid materials sent by the Valesta Chamber of Commerce has won the unanimous favor of the people in the Broken Blood Fortress, they are their own God of Wealth, who come to make money for themselves, of course, they must protect it.

A series of reasons come down, leading to the result is.

Border trade has been booming from the very beginning.

What is the state of popularity?

The goods that were so popular that the Valesta Chamber of Commerce originally provided free assistance to the Broken Blood Fortress were all temporarily seconded and sold as commodities, and even so, they only lasted less than a month before they were out of stock.

Many of the Orcs who came to trade didn't know what bargaining was.

Two kilograms of salt, drop a sheep, take it and go.

An iron pot, drop a cow, carry it and leave.

A pack of needles, drop a little lamb, and take it.

An iron sword, a three-year-old high-quality war horse, take it.

This price is simply the previous smuggling price, and the psychological price prepared by the merchants of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce at the beginning is not only one or two points higher, but has increased several times.

No one will kindly remind the Odin orcs, but they will make a lot of money with peace of mind, even if the big head is eaten by the severed blood keep, they will also make money.

Not to mention the refilling of 10,000 carts of goods in exchange for various skins, and the number of herds of cattle like clouds is definitely not less than three million.

Those herds of livestock, who were too young and not fat enough, were directly handed over to the Broken Blood Fort for disposal, and their affiliated tribes raised them in the Broken Mouth Grassland, and those who were too old or disabled to travel far away were slaughtered on the spot, and the soldiers of the Broken Blood Fort were rewarded.

Only those fat, strong, well-aged, and high-value animals will be transported by them thousands of miles to the Byron League.

In a big city like Valesta, the royal capital, sheep worth only two kilograms of salt on the border cannot be exchanged for a hundred kilograms, and the value is not several times more, but dozens of times, and the huge profits contained in it are enough to make countless people blush.

Under such circumstances, how could the merchants of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce engage in trading in other directions?

Of course, all manpower and material resources should be mobilized to focus on this one direction.

The furs and cattle transported by the Valesta Chamber of Commerce were all taken off before they even finished half the way to the royal capital Valesta.

Get rid of one, then replenish the goods nearby, turn the direction as soon as possible, and return to the border, where there are countless Odin orc tribes who have rushed to hear the news, waiting for their goods hungry!

The way they are now pursuing profit maximization is not to have a long-term high price, but to fast in and out at a low price, and compared with the former, the profit is still several times higher.

After all, one trip to Valesta was enough for them to make three or four trips nearby.

The merchants of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce, like a group of diligent ants, transfer the goods of the Byron Alliance to the Odin orcs, and then transfer the goods in the hands of the Odin orcs to the Byron people who need them, and make a huge difference from the middle.

The matter of hiring retired soldiers from the Broken Blood Castle as mercenaries is even more compatible.

One side is thirsty for talent, but there is no doorway.

On the other hand, they have no livelihood and are forced to live.

This is simply a match made in heaven, and the booming border trade makes them have no leisure for a moment, and they will go on the road after negotiating the conditions.

The Valesta Chamber of Commerce is not worried about the loyalty of these soldiers at all, there is a Broken Blood Fortress as a guarantee in the middle, once something goes wrong, there is no need for the Chamber of Commerce to send a punishment team, the Broken Blood Fortress will send people to hunt them down to the ends of the earth.

Just in case, when the merchants of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce select retired soldiers, they give priority to those who have families at the border gates, or have a good reputation, and then try to mix some problematic retired soldiers, even if they really have problems, there are still those retired soldiers who want to support their families!

Employment files and employment records are established for the first time, and as this information becomes more and more comprehensive, the employment industry will embark on the pace of formalization, and then the servants will naturally be like clouds.

It's off to a good start.

The goods that had been flowing into the Odin steppes through the Northern Fortress line were streamed down the Jacob River to the royal capital Valesta before being rerouted to the border.

The teas, condiments and some mountain delicacies in their hands are marketable in the Odin steppes, and the prices are usually not low.

It is still unknown whether these goods will have a chance to be transported to the Odin steppe, after all, the Byron Alliance also has a demand for the goods of the Eternal Night Army.

By the time Archduke Cedric walked around outside and returned to the Broken Blood Castle, the merchants of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce had also run two or three times back and forth on the long line, and more than eight or nine times on the short line, and the part of the benefits given to the Broken Blood Castle made him stunned, which was two or three times greater than the results of his half-year trip.

The soldiers of the Broken Blood Fort ate mouths full of oil, fat and strong.

There's no way, there are too many animals traded from the Odin orcs, and the chances of having problems are naturally greater, and all of them are cheaper.

After Archduke Cedric returned to the Broken Blood Castle, he was dragged by the generals who were not good at sycophancy, and his old face was reddened.

Apparently they took all of this to Archduke Cedric.

Now not only do they have a lot of wealth in their accounts, but they have also thrown off the big burden of retired soldiers, and found a new way out for them, and in their memory, they have never been so rich as they are now.

It's only been less than half a year, and everything is just getting started.

Affected by the turbulent state of the Odin steppe, a large number of small and medium-sized Odin orc tribes flocked to the Broken Mountain Range in order to survive to avoid the tide of soldiers of the Western Odin Empire.

Their presence has escalated the popularity of border trade.

If it continues like this, it is not impossible for the Broken Blood Castle to get rid of its dependence on the other Grand Dukes of the Byron Alliance, and it will naturally have more say at that time.

Grand Duke Cedric finally understood why, in the last few days of his stay in the Eternal Night Army, Sean began to sell all kinds of military supplies for their Eternal Night Army, especially Andys Longbow and Black Powder.

The former is a sharp weapon for defending the city, greatly enhancing the long-range firepower of the Broken Blood Fortress.

The latter is a strategic weapon, with the magical power to turn the impossible into the possible.

All of them made Archduke Cedric salivate, and he signed a sales agreement of tens of millions in a daze, and on the way back, he was still worried about what to pay for the Eternal Night Army!

I didn't expect that my finances were already rich enough that paying this amount was not a problem.

It seems that the young lord of the Eternal Night Army Leader has cracked the abacus at the beginning, and after a circle, a large amount of wealth still flows into the hands of the Eternal Night Army Leader.

In the whole process, it seems that there is no loss, everyone takes what they need.

The Orc tribe of Odin received their own scarce subsistence supplies.

The Byron Union received a large number of relatively scarce livestock.

The Broken Blood Fort received a large amount of military spending and military supplies.

Valesta merchants and retired soldiers turned mercenaries have received their share of the wealth.

The Eternal Night Commander successfully sold the large amount of ammunition he had accumulated in exchange for a large amount of liquidity.

That's the beauty of business, the whole process doesn't create value, but it makes everyone happy and feels like they've made money.

Archduke Cedric, who had tasted the sweetness, would naturally pay more attention to this matter to ensure that this transaction could continue for a long time.

The so-called wealth is moving.

There are huge interests in it, and the other lords and nobles of the Byron alliance are also moved, wanting to get a kick in it.

At this time, the Valesta Chamber of Commerce made a big concession in the initial negotiations with Archduke Cedric, and the advantage was reflected, but the big head was pinched in the hands of the Broken Blood Castle.

If the others want to enter, they must at least be on par with the Valesta Chamber of Commerce, otherwise they don't need to make a move at all, and the Broken Blood Castle will naturally stop them.

Now it is not that Archduke Cedric begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother to find them to make a marriage, but they begged the broken blood castle to raise their noble hands and share their share of the pie.

Archduke Cedric's attitude is as tough as ever, want to enter the market to make money?

Yes, as long as you are on the same level as the Valesta Chamber of Commerce, by the way, you will replenish all the supplies that should be supported to the Broken Blood Fortress.

Otherwise, why would we allow you to come and go freely in our territory?
