After Leon had been away for a while, Malten returned to the tavern. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"My lord, it's all settled. The fat merchant said with joy on his brows, and the lumps of flesh on his cheeks twitched happily:

"I bought 50 tons of wheat and 20 tons of pork from Anton, and Ingvar is already arranging for people to transport them on the ship. ”

Anton is a merchant known to Malten, and Thor has also seen it, and after listening to his words at this moment, he temporarily waved away the doubts and entanglements in his heart about Leon just now, and said to the fat merchant:

"Alright, let's go to the docks—" Leaving a silver coin on the table, the two of them left the tavern together.

Along the way, Thor silently calculated, according to the population of the tribe, 50 tons of wheat was enough to eat for more than a month, and most of the pork was prepared for the dire wolves.

"How much did it cost us?" he asked Malten.

"Two hundred golden roses, my lord. Malten was a little apprehensive, he had tried to keep the price as low as possible, but he was still afraid that Thor would not be satisfied with the price.

"Hmm. Nodding, he continued to walk in the direction of the docks, the price of two hundred gold coins did not exceed Thor's bottom line, and with the sale of soap, the money would soon be in his account.

"Then you will be in charge of the sale of soap, the purchase, the shipment, and the bookkeeping, and I will let Morey and Ingvar assist you. Saul said as he walked, and the face of Marten next to him was even more pleasantly surprised, for him who was now in debt and almost had nothing, it was very important to be reused by Saul.

Thor had a plan in his mind that after Ingvar brought the grain and meat back to the cliff corner, he would bring back the remaining dragon whale fat and other raw materials for making soap, and he planned to move the soap production site to Worms.

The Marten warehouse is so big since the dire wolves left, it's a fitting soap processing plant.

The only thing to worry about is what to do when the fat runs out, is it really necessary to organize people to go to sea to hunt whales?

This put Thor in a dilemma, on the one hand, the lack of whaling equipment and boats, and even the lack of experience in dragon whale hunting, made whaling almost impossible.

On the other hand, the enormous value that a dragon whale can produce tempts Thor like a thorny rose, not to mention meat and fat, baleen, whale teeth, and skin...... Everything on the dragon whale is a priceless treasure, and relying on the Soth Chamber of Commerce, Thor believes that if he can catch another dragon whale, he will definitely be able to sell it for a good price in Worms.

Thinking so, before I knew it, I had arrived at the dock, where the dhow flying the golden rose flag occupied a pier alone, and the slaves were carrying bags of dusty sacks to the ship.

When the dwarf Ingvar saw Thor, he hurriedly nodded his feet and ran forward, and greeted excitedly:

"Lord Thor—you're here!"

Thor smiled and greeted the bearded dwarf, then looked at the busy crowd and asked:

"How long will it take?"

Ingvar estimated and said slowly, "At this rate, it should all be loaded onto the ship by evening." He watched with delight as sacks of wheat and pork were brought onto the ship, and the barbarian slaves were so strong that nearly a hundred pounds of hemp bags could resist with one hand, and Ingvar knew that these grains would become the rations of the people on the other side of the sea, on the cliffs.

"I also bought some wheat seeds and a few breeding pigs from Anton—" Malten interjected, "I heard from Mr. Morey, that your tribe grows cassava and oil beans, and that you ...... do it yourself."

"yes—I almost forgot. Thor happily patted Marten on the shoulder, excited, he did plan to domesticate some livestock, but the wild boars on the island were untamable and too difficult to raise, and now that there were ready-made breeding pigs, it was naturally better.

Then he took out a letter from his bosom, bent down and handed it to the dwarf Ingvar, and said with a serious expression: "Give this letter to Diana when I go back, everything I want to order is in it, and when you return, I hope to bring her reply." ”

The dwarf nodded, solemnly put the letter into his arms, and said, "I will definitely give the letter to Miss Diana." ”

It's been a few days since he left the cliff corner, and Thor is a little worried about the situation there, whether the size of the tribe has expanded, how is the life of the tribe, how is the cultivation of the land, and what is the problem with management?

Thor was the only way to learn about the situation on the other side of the sea, but fortunately, it was only a three-day voyage from Worms to the cliff corner, and Ingmar and the others flew the flag of the Conrad family, and they were clippers themselves, so they didn't have to worry about pirate attacks.

He planned to make Ingvar travel back and forth between the two places at least three times a month, both to deliver supplies and to keep in touch with the tribe.

In this letter, he told Diana many things, on the one hand, he suggested that she could slowly refine the division of labor in the Agricultural Bureau, such as ironmaking and farming could be slowly separated, and a department in charge of fortifications could be established for the time being, and then upgraded when Thor had the opportunity to return.

On the other hand, it is the cultivation of talents, in fact, according to the need, the agricultural bureau in charge of Diana can be divided into many small departments in an instant, but the problem is that there are no talents in the clan that can be used for management, so this time Saul specially asked Diana to choose some young or young clansmen to come to Worms with Ingvar, he plans to send them to Worms Academy to study, of course, Bertha and Tula are among them.

In the letter, Thor also mentions Blackfang's temporary management of the army, and he asks Blacktooth and Diana to discuss the expansion of the army, for slaves who are accustomed to submitting to the defeated tribe, it is normal for them to be assimilated by the Soths, and Thor is not worried about the problem of soldiers.

After coming to Worms, Saul, who was involved in more and more complex struggles, found that his own strength was still too weak to fight against those big forces, and since he was temporarily not enough to compete in wealth, he could only use simple and violent methods, that is, to make his "fist" harder.

Since he did not know the current situation of the tribe's specific population, food, etc., Saul mentioned more suggestions in the letter, and the specific plan would not be made until he received a reply from Diana.

Leon Conrad's sudden invitation, and the emergence of organizations like Doors and Eyes, gave Thor a sense of urgency, and he felt that the tribe needed to move forward and expand more quickly and sharply, or else it might be crushed into powder by the changing times.

Thinking of Leon, he turned his head and asked Malten softly, "Do you know Leon Conrad?"

Malten didn't seem to expect Thor to suddenly ask such a large question, frowned and thought for a long time before he said to him uncertainly:

"Leon...... "Scratching his head, the fat merchant frowning, "It is said that he is the eldest son of the Grand Duke Conrad...... But he didn't join Platinum Amber and didn't take over any of the industry...... Everybody said—"

"What do you mean?"

Marten looked left and right, and carefully covered his mouth with his hand, and said: "It is said that the eldest prince is willing to be a lowly bard - many people have seen him sing in the tavern - as for the rest, there are no rumors, in short, this eldest young master seems to be a freak, an alien......
