The overland journey to Victorious County did not last long, and Thomas and Conrador hit the road again.

"The road is lined with farmland. It seems that there is a lot of food here, and maybe it can be imported from here in the future. Thomas said casually.

Indeed, under the possession of a large number of retired officers (wounded and discharged, laid off after the war, etc.), huge lands were gradually reclaimed. Especially when the traffic of the main artery is good, many people have hundreds of acres of land, a big house at home, a stable, and a few tenant farmers. Of course, Qin Cang was not in the mood to consider why the tenant farmers were so miserable, everyone was on the same starting line, and someone had to be a policeman and someone a thief.

As for grain imports, in the past, Constantinople imported grain from Sicily and Naples through ******, and of course there were unknown channels, such as from Ukraine, but that was also from ****** merchants. Such a price clearly did not satisfy Constantinople. So Thomas said this, on the one hand, for planning for the future, and on the other hand, he wanted to stimulate Conrad.

For Conlado, Thomas's move was undoubtedly too naïve. He sneered and said, "You may have to be here in the future." After I evacuate, I'm afraid they will be in charge of the Black Sea trade. Listen to my advice, if you really want to win over this person, you might as well build a barn of land in Constantinople. Maybe you might succeed. ”

Again....... Think about it. Thomas just wanted to scold back, but when the words came to his lips, he took them back. The income of a city in Constantinople was less than one-third of that of the Venetian colony, which shows that the wealth of Constantinople was actually in the colonial area. In this case, Thomas felt that it would be okay to give another one, and he would not be able to collect taxes anyway.

In silence, the two men crossed the higher mining area. The mine has now gone a long way. The mines here were abandoned and backfilled and disposed of cheaply to the original miners, which can be regarded as a win over people's hearts.

The mine area is headed inland to the low-lying coast, so the end point of the rental car shop is here.

In order to restrict traffic, horse-drawn carriages are temporarily closed to the city, but horseback riding is allowed.

The two of them went down the steep road, passed through the northwest gate, and then bypassed the shadow wall, revealing what is currently the largest industrial area. The sound of the shuttle's loom, the thumping of the hydraulic forging hammer.......

"It's a shame to be a bustling city. It is not Constantinople. For the first time, Thomas took a closer look at the city.

"Don't think about it, we still have things." Conrador walked fast.

.......

In the morning, Qin Cang was woken up by Sophia as soon as he woke up.

"My dear Majesty, are you going to rest when you're done fighting? The governor of Kaffa came with the co-emperor of Rome. Sophia said excitedly. Sophia's mother was a member of the Trabzon royal family. And the Trabzon royal family is the former Comnenian family of Rome, so the contradiction between the two sides can be seen.

"Huh? Oh....... Conrado. Let him go to the study, and we'll talk privately. ”

"And what about the co-emperor of Rome? Waste of the Valleologos family! ”

"Huh?" Qin Cang was completely sober.

The co-emperor of Rome? Are you asking for help again? Qin Cang's spirit is up! Just come and ask for help, Constantinople is still saved!

He jumped out of bed and asked Sophia to serve him and dress.

"I need to talk to him carefully. How to save the castle and how to curb the rise of the Ottoman bastards. Qin Cang's excitement made Sophia a little jealous, she threw down her clothes and scolded: "You are wholeheartedly thinking about others, I'm afraid that others are still not affected by your kindness!" I just heard two people arguing in the guest room! Conrado has always said that the conditions of the little mongrels are simply not enough for us to save Constantinople! Aren't you letting us drop the price ourselves? ”

Plunges.......

Qin Cang scooped up the water and patted his face.

That's right, the Ottomans are the great enemy, but it doesn't mean that Constantinople must be up! I'm not Zhuge Liang, let alone Liu Bei!

"Go find a few Taige. Let's talk about it together. ”

Soon, several people got together.

Among those present were Conrador and Thomas.

"First of all, let's discuss the issue of land on the southern bank of the Crimea." Qin Cang showed a mouthful of big white teeth. In fact, the cabinet has discussed this matter a long time ago, and the final result is very optimistic, so I am not afraid that Conrado will not agree.

"Well, I'm pressed for time. Give me fifty thousand florins, and I will hand over the land immediately. "Kanglado is also very simple, and gives a price that Qin Cang can't accept at all! Fifty thousand florins! That's 150,000 gold coins!

"Really? That's no need to talk about it. I'll wait for you to leave before I go and take the territory. Qin Cang said a little angrily. Fifty thousand florins, do you open a bank in my family?

Conraddo pushed his clothes and said, "We can talk slowly." ”

Qin Cang stretched out a hand and said, "I got a lot of good things in Be'er Gosale. I'll trade these things for you. Nothing else, don't think about it. ”

Beergosalet gave all kinds of very valuable goods, such as the scepter of the old Hungarian king stolen from Hungary, which was very valuable! When Qin Cang finished exchanging them at the beginning of July, these things would be very useless to Qin Cang. After all, the skills of the Han people are much higher than them, and Qin Cang can completely imitate better things.

Of course, if it is the heirloom crown of Hungary, of course, it is a different matter.

The whole world is a king with a crown, but Hungary is a crown with a king! That's right, in Hungary the crown has become important because of the legend of the Virgin Mary. To own this crown is to be considered the master of Hungary.

Conlardo was speechless for a moment.

"Ten thousand florins!"

"Don't think about it, there's not one!"

.......

Qin Changan's black face trembled, he and Conrador faced each other sentence by sentence, and after arguing for half an hour, the two people who almost tore their faces determined the final price. Qin Cang snatched half of the booty in Beergosale, plus five thousand florins to send Conrador back.

The money is private. And the larger coffers belong to the ****** Republic. There is no way to take out these public money Conrador to give gifts and make connections.

Very rich, Qin Cang couldn't imagine rich. It is recorded that in the whole year of 1293****** trade turnover of the Republic was as high as 40 million ****** pounds! That's a ****** pound of gold!

From this, we can see why ****** people are holding huge sums of money and spending them without land. There's so much money that you can soak in the sea.

And it is in this way that Conrador knows that meaningful objects are worth more than mere gold coins.

"That's it. At the end of July, I'll leave completely with my men, hoping that I'll be able to see it before then. ”

"Of course we keep our word. You can take five thousand florins right now. Qin Changan said with a smile.
