For the vast majority of the inhabitants of the Silver Federation, their lives consist of going about their daily work while guarding against the next attack from orc tribes, hungry white dragons, or trolls at any unknown time.

They all know how dangerous and short life can be on this desolate, unexplored continent, and it teaches them what it means to help each other and work together.

As the people of the Federation face orcs, giants, dragons, and more dangerous creatures, the differences between dwarves and elves, humans and local outside creatures become irrelevant.

The inhabitants of the Silver Federation are also convinced that they have a hopeful destiny, but the bright future does not make them ignore the fact that the dangerous beasts and cruel enemies are always eyeing them.

Therefore, the people of Silver Moon have always held a strange optimistic pragmatism, and people living on other continents may find it difficult to understand this spirit.

And this kind of optimism also needs to be built on a certain material basis, on the premise that the Federation can give them a solid rear.

But at this moment, these people who had to leave their homes and come to Silvermoon City to seek refuge due to the invasion of the orcs also became a little hesitant in the face of various problems of lack of preparation in the city.

Because within the Silvermoon Federation, basically 70% of the land is mountains and forests, and the eternal wasteland suitable for large-scale reclamation is full of all kinds of beasts, and it has also been ruled by the Troll Tribe and the Frost Giant Tribe successively, and covets their good neighbor Silvermoon City.

The only areas that can be reclaimed are the few plains on both sides of the River Levin and the northern farms on the outskirts of Silvermoon City that have been newly developed after the establishment of the Federation.

Even the priests of the goddess of the earth, Chentia, have been working hard to improve their planting techniques and help the people increase their grain yields, but due to various conditions, the annual output of food is still not enough to be self-sufficient.

The reason is also very simple, since the establishment of the Silver Moon Federation, they have had to take on the additional responsibility of providing for the dwarves.

They are a group of large food consumers who do not produce food at all, and even have a need for spirits.

And these dwarves in the northernmost Mithril Hall, Fort Adeba, and Fort Felba are also tasked with guarding the northern borders of the Federation and resisting the large-scale invasion of the orcs.

Therefore, the Silver Moon Federation has to buy a batch of grain from Jishui City and Ammu in the south every year.

But now that the northern farms have just finished harvesting in the autumn, most of them have been looted by the orcs, and even the farmers with little knowledge know that the food of the Federation this year must not be enough for the winter.

Buying food from shops has become almost the only option for civilians, but with food prices rising day by day, even some middle-class people find it a bit difficult, let alone refugees seeking refuge from the north.

Recently, many refugees have chosen to go hunting in the dangerous Moon Forest in defiance of the ban because they can't afford to buy food, but now that it's late autumn, the predators in the forest are also good hunting options in their eyes in order to store enough fat before the first heavy snow falls.

At this moment, these merchants would rather unite to resist the new decree issued by Ms. Erastro than accept the act of calming the good price, which almost knocked the last hope of the people to the bottom.

So even looking at Levi, the newly established supporter, his eyes became unkind.

But Levi seemed to turn a blind eye and continued to take matters into his own hands

"Residents of Silvermoon, friends of the mall, my name is Levi's, I'm from distant Zeellandia, and I'm the founder of a small Hogg Merchant Order.

"Yes, I'm also a businessman, a businessman who travels around the continent of Correll for profit.

"Where there is profit, we businessmen are there.

"Profit is the ultimate goal that we businessmen strive for, and it is also the meaning of us as businessmen.

"And we merchants are also the lubricant of the entire Korrell continent, allowing the various city-states to communicate with each other.

"It is precisely because of this freedom of commerce that the city-state economy flourishes.

"I respect Silvermoon City, I respect Alastro's policies, and I can understand Lady Erastro's painstaking efforts to maintain order in Silvermoon City.

"But please also ask Ms. Erastro to respect the laws of the market and the meaning of our pursuit of profit as businessmen

"Business needs progress, it needs competition, it needs the rule of law, but most importantly, we need a fair and just environment.

"If Ms. Erastro insists on interfering with the decree, then even the business that is stifling this fair Silvermoon City will lose its vitality and lose its original vitality, and the business will eventually leave Silvermoon City.

"As I said before, business needs freedom and fairness"

Li Wei's words immediately won the applause of many businessmen, and they all felt that this elf's little white face suddenly looked a lot more pleasing to the eye.

On the other side, Knight Captain Jero's face became more difficult to look at than ever.

The people watched the merchants' cries rise, and looked at the Lady Tagda and the bewildered Knight Captain Gero, whose eyes gradually became numb and desperate.

But just when everyone thought that today's political and business dispute was about to come to an end, Li Wei, who was regarded as the focus of everyone, showed a big smile, and then the tone of his words suddenly changed

"Business needs freedom and fairness, but

"As businessmen, we also need a bottom line and a conscience

"You need to assess the situation. ”

"Hmm" As soon as Levi's words came out, the businessmen who had thought that victory was in sight were suddenly stupid.

When do they need a bottom line and a conscience, does that have anything to do with them?

Seeing Levi continued, "Because this is my first time in Silvermoon City, before leaving, I brought some small gifts for Silvermoon City, hoping to use them as a postcard for our Zelandia and Hogg merchant group. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and said to Gero, "Knight Commander Jero, my friend, can you organize the people to retreat some distance, I need an open space." ”

"Gladly. Jairo didn't too much of a fan to pass Levi and whispered, "What the hell are you doing?" ”

"It's a good thing, just look at it. Levi laughed.

Jairo glanced at Lady Tagada, who smiled at him and nodded, and Jairo was even more confused.

Half a minute later, the merchants, who were also confused and a little uneasy in their hearts, withdrew more than a hundred feet after being signaled by Li Wei.

Only then did Levi glance around at everyone, in the limelight

Syllable.

snapped his fingers.

The ring on his finger glittered in the sunlight.

The next moment.

There was a loud bang.

I saw a huge container 36 feet long, 75 feet wide and 9 feet high appear out of thin air in mid-air, and then slammed heavily on the vacated field.

Xu is hatch collapsed crisply due to the violent collision on both sides, and the huge hatch fell down in the widening eyes of the people of Silvermoon City.

Then a myriad of silvery things poured out into the open space of the square.

Like a mountain

Like the sea

The little human girl, who had not been able to receive food, screamed excitedly

"The fish is so big, the tiger striped sand fish"

"Atia is on top, there are so many fish"

Although the Ruiwen River in Silvermoon City also produces fish, I am afraid that no one present has never seen so many tiger striped saw fat fat fish piled together in his life.

This container is a full 20 tons of fathead fish

But that's just the beginning.

syllable

Another large container fell and stacked on top of the previous one.

So countless processed Cavins rat meat was poured out.

The "Bunny" girl had never seen a bamboo rat and thought it was hare meat.

I saw Levi constantly snapping his fingers in the ecstatic and shocked eyes of the people.

Every finger snap is the drop of a huge shipping container, which means enough food to feed tens of thousands of people for several days.

The food that is like mountains and seas has an indescribable impact on people who are generally short of food in this era of this world

And the loud sound of metal striking was like a battering ram on the hearts of all the merchants present, and their faces turned pale, and the two trembled.

Before Levi could stack the container as high as the Supreme Palace, a merchant whispered in his man's ear and hurriedly slipped away.

Levi, of course, noticed their movements, and couldn't help but smile triumphantly.

When someone starts running away from a coalition that doesn't have much binding, it's basically a sign that it's starting to unravel.

Because Levi's food is too large, such a container of food is often the size of Levi's meal.

Tiger and the others are really worried that with Levi's food that can be called a starving ghost, if they go to Silvermoon City and eat a city down, it will cause a diplomatic accident.

So before Levi left, Tiger and the others prepared food for Levi to be at least enough for him for a month.

Now it has become the mortar ammunition that Levi has used to strike at the group of improvised business alliances from the south and the north of the world in Silvermoon City

Seeing that the container was in danger of capsizing if it was piled up any further, Levi finally stopped his frantic actions when everyone's eyes were almost numb.

It's time to reap the fruits.

So Levi faced the hopeful gazes of the people of the Silvermoon Federation, opened his hands, and said the words they had been waiting for

"These foods are the gifts that I, Levi, have given to all the people of the Silver Moon Federation on behalf of Zeellandia and on behalf of our Hogg Merchant Order.

"It's also our Zeelandia specialty, tiger saw fathead, Cavins rat meat and mushroom mushrooms.

"Now I declare that in view of the Orc invasion of the Silvermoon Federation, we, Zeellandia and the Hogg Merchant Group, uphold the spirit of humanitarianism, and donate 2,000 tons each of Saw Fat Fish, Cavins Rat Meat, and Mushroom Mushroom Mushrooms to the Silvermoon Federation free of charge

"These are the first batch of prepaid supplies, and the successive supplies have already been on the Seblin River, and they will arrive in Silvermoon City one after another within three days to relieve the food crisis in Silvermoon City.

"Although we merchants are profit-seeking, if Silvermoon City suffers a huge blow in this disaster, then the commerce of the Silvermoon Federation will also suffer a heavy blow.

"For the sake of more long-term interests, and in order not to let my only remaining bottom line and conscience as a businessman be extinguished.

"This is the decision of my Levi and the Zeellandia Hogg Merchant Group.

Li Wei looked around at the businessmen with a dish-like face and sighed

"My colleagues, my lips are cold"

As soon as Levi's words landed, all the people cheered.

"Thank you, Mr. Levi."

"Long live Zeelandia"

"The conscience of the merchants of the Hogg Merchant Order"

This cheer fell on the eyes of the merchants, which was so dazzling.

At the same time, they finally knew the purpose of this peer, and they couldn't help but applaud the resentment in their hearts.

Wouldn't this be equivalent to a big advertisement in the entire Silver Moon Federation?

Looking at the frenzied cheers of the people, this guy and his Zeellandia Hogg merchant group's goods, I am afraid that in the future, Zeellandia will be able to walk sideways

And what is paid is just a batch of food that is not expensive

So some people began to follow suit.

"We, the Blue Tuna Merchants Group in Jishui City, donated 100 tons of tuna meat to the Silver Moon Federation"

More businessmen began to follow suit.

"We at Amvalley also donated 500 tons of wheat to the Silver Moon Federation"

"We Luskan also"

In the commercial street in the distance, seeing that they have hoarded so much food this winter, they will inevitably suffer the impact of the donated materials, and eighty percent of them will not be able to sell at a high price.

If they waited until the supplies from the other city-states of the Silvermoon Federation arrived, wouldn't they all have to lose their underwear by then?

No one wants to be the one who is stranded, and in order not to lose the cost, the price of food in countless hoarding shops has begun to drop one after another.

to the big dive

Blew

As a result, some of the people who had not heard the news of the commercial plaza were shocked

A few hours later, Levi, the last conscience of the merchants, and his Zeelendia Hogg merchant group spread throughout Silvermoon City.

It's just that some businessmen wonder

What kind of country is this Zeeland Diat?

This Hogg Merchant Order

I've never heard of it at all
