Section 106 Extraterrestrial traders are more expensive

Miller is a daring man, and the thing he is most proud of is turning decay into magic. He was born in a poor family in Uba Town, and seeing the expensive Uba wine constantly produced in the town, he was unwilling to just be a poor and hungry person. So from Miller he began to learn to resell goods to make money, until he quickly changed his fortune by owning his own vineyard and winery in Uba Town.

Now Miller had a new challenge ahead of him, and at the moment it was just a barren mountain and dense forest, and there was no beach at his feet, but Miller already had the general structure of the port and the town in his mind.

At night, everyone sat in a large circle, and the bonfire burned very violently under the sea breeze, the prey was put on the grill, and the strong smell of meat filled the whole beach.

While everyone was enjoying the night view of the beach, Miller took out a pamphlet and kept writing things down while thinking.

When everyone was full, everyone split up to find a place to go to bed, while Miller sat by the campfire and kept busy writing.

Cook couldn't stay awake and asked Miller with a yawn, "You've been remembering it for two hours, do you have anything to remember?" It's getting late, hurry up and go to bed Miller, I'm sleepy. ”

With that, Cook yawned as he walked towards the woods next to him. Miller was still sitting on the sand, looking desperately in thought.

At this time, Caldis also got up and urged: "Miller, don't be in a hurry in everything, too much will cause omissions." It's so late, you better go and rest early, and we'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

Miller nodded, closed the book, and went to rest with Caldis.

When he returned to the territory the next day, Miller insisted on staying, and asked Caldis to arrange for him to get to the beach at once, and he was to start preparations for the construction of the port at once.

Caldis readily agreed, leaving Tarrett and a team of guards with Miller, and the others went back to the territory in the northern woods.

After returning to the territory, under the arrangement of Caldis, the entire Alto people went into action. Even Jombus was not idle, he collected all the bandits in Nanshan, and then led them and the people to cut down trees and roads, open mountains and build roads.

Winter is a time when farming is slack, and nearly 100,000 people flock to the road, which finally opens up the road to the coast. The power of the unity of the people is indeed very powerful, and only the people of Alto's territory can accomplish such a feat.

It was a narrow gravel road that could only be used by a horse-drawn carriage, but it was more than enough for the traffic of the port. It only takes half a day to get to the coast from Alto Town, and the distance is shortened in a straight line after the road is reached.

However, the people of Alto's territory still did not rest, and after leaving one group to continue repairing the road and widening the road, Montpot organized some people to assist Miller in building the port and town, and the rest of the people all returned to the territory.

During the spring harvest season, the wharf is still expanding, and the town next to the wharf is already taking shape, and the first fish caught are transported to the territory by truck.

A month later, as Tarrett put it, an unfamiliar convoy of merchant ships passed by the newly built port, thinking it was a dock in sunny waters, and docked.

The leader of the merchant ship was an old man in his fifties, his name was Feredo, and he spoke an awkward Knight, and greeted Miller in a vicissitudes of voice and said: "Honorable lord, I am Feredo, a merchant from the continent of San Gono, please allow me to bring my merchant ship to trade with you, we have nothing else to do, we just want to exchange for some food and cloth to bring back." ”

Miller was stunned and asked, "Didn't you say that the continent on the other side of the ocean is rich in products, why are you short of food?" ”

The old man Feredo shook his head and sighed, "Well, we in San Gono really want something, but we lack flour and cloth. ”

Miller Allegiance said, "Oh, it's all right, we just have a lot of food here, and the cloth is not available for the time being. If you want cloth, I can prepare it for you in the future. ”

"Really?" The old man was ecstatic after hearing this, he opened his voice and said: "Great, I didn't expect that I could find such a good trading partner when I went to sea for the first time, and I will be friends with you forever in the future, how about coming to you regularly to trade?" ”

"No problem!" Miller looked at the huge ships moored at the dock and asked with interest, "What goods have you all brought, can you tell me about it?" ”

The old man replied with his fingers, "There are pearls, there are agate stones, there are fine iron horses and mare's milk wine, and diamonds that are hard and golden." My lord, what do you want to exchange? ”

Miller shook his head and replied, "We are not interested in what you say. I'm Miller of Alto's Territory, and you can call me Miller, you don't have to be so restrained. ”

"Okay, Lord Miller!" After touching his beard, the old man Ferredo asked, "Then what goods do you want to exchange for?" ”

Miller stared at him and asked calmly, "Isn't your Saint-Gono continent rich in horses?" Why didn't you bring the horses? ”

When the old man Feredo heard this, he burst out laughing, and he patted his head and said, "Ouch, look at my head, it's really hard to do it." If you bring it, how can you not bring horses. Not only did we bring the best horses, but we also brought a lot of sheep and cows. ”

"Really?" Miller smiled and said, "Well, we'll have the best horses, and your iron tools, and cows, which are good goods." ”

Fei Liduo smiled and said: "Ouch, there are a lot of these goods on our continent, how many are needed." It's just that I want to ask, how much flour do you have? Your town seems to be ......."

Miller understood what he meant, he thought his town was small and didn't have much food to store. Miller smiled and said, "I'm just a small town, and I'm not prepared to trade with a big merchant like you." If you want to sell it for a long time, then you can make a few trips, and I guarantee that every time you come to us, you will return with a merchant ship full of flour and cloth. ”

"That's great." , The old man said with a smile: "In that case, start now?" ”

After saying this, the old man reached out and took a book of accounts from the servant's hand, and as he flipped through it, he muttered, "We have brought with us two hundred fine Saint-Gono horses, fifty fine cows, three hundred fat sheep, and a thousand iron tools of all kinds. ”

"Okay!" Miller nodded and said, "We can ask for these quantities, you can give a price." ”

The old man closed the account book and said very modestly: "What do you think of these numbers, if Lord Miller is convinced that we want it, we will exchange it for four thousand bags of flour?" ”

Miller was shocked to hear this, and he couldn't believe it, thinking that there would be some fraud in this. Miller soon offered to inspect the goods, especially the horses.

When the Saint-Gono people opened the cabin and drove the hordes of horses off the docks, Miller was stunned on the spot.

He looked at these sturdy horses in a daze, the hair and skin were extraordinarily smooth, and he knew at a glance that they were excellent war horses, and he couldn't close his mouth with joy. These two hundred horses alone are worth at least two hundred gold coins, and Knight can easily exchange them for 20,000 bags of flour.

However, the old man thought that Miller thought that the price was too high, and said to Miller: "Otherwise, Lord Miller, this is our first transaction, in order to show our sincerity, you only need to give us three thousand bags of flour, and all the goods just now will be yours." ”

Miller was stunned when he heard this, and he hesitated for a moment, feeling that he couldn't take advantage of others like this. In the matter of trade, the price cannot be hidden for a long time, and sooner or later, Feldor will know the price of the flour on the Nete continent, and then the prestige of himself and Alto will be completely lost.

In order to get a firm grip on the kind foreign merchant, Miller smiled and said, "Lord Feredo, I didn't mean that. In this way, you have come all the way to us, and it is hard to sway across the ocean and sea along the way. In order to show our sincerity, we are willing to exchange five thousand bags of flour for these goods you mentioned earlier. ”

The old man was dumbfounded when he heard this, in the past, when traders bought and sold, the bargainers would only cut less and less, and this was the first time he had encountered the other party who gave more and more on the price.

The old man asked puzzledly, "Lord Miller, you are so generous, this is a good thing for me. It's just that I'm a little curious, why are you doing this? ”

Miller replied: "In our continent, the price of flour is far less expensive, and I do this to show our sincerity, and hope that you will maintain trade exchanges with us for a long time, because we are sincere and do not deceive." ”

Old Man Feredo smiled heartily after hearing this, he happily looked at Miller again, stretched out his hand to touch his beard and smiled: "Lord Miller does have a very unique view of the trader trade, and I have no reason to refuse your kindness. Since Mistress Miller is so sincere, then I have made you a friend. Not to mention, all the cargo on our ship belongs to you, and I can only accept your five thousand bags of flour. ”

Miller laughed out loud after hearing this, this is the so-called sublime realm among vendors, the more business is talked, the more polite it becomes, and the more it talks, the more affectionate it becomes. Miller didn't shirk any more, and such a huge deal was easily negotiated.

A few days later, a long convoy arrived from the direction of Alto, loaded with 5,000 bags of flour that had just been produced in the spring, all of which were loaded onto the ship.

Before leaving, the old man begged to see the Duke of Alto, and in the end Miller had to agree to him, and sent Caldis over.

After meeting Caldis, the old man was very excited, and in order to thank Alto for the flour and long-term trade agreement in Alto's territory, the old man asked him to bring a red sparkling BMW and give it directly to Caldis.

The old man Ferredor muttered to the BMW in the San Gono language, and the BMW nodded again and again, and from time to time pointed his nostrils at Caldis, making the crowd very dazed, not knowing what the old man was doing.

Then the old man went away with the flour in his boat, promising that in two months he would send a larger merchant fleet to trade again.

After watching the fleet leave, Miller turned his head to Caldis and said, "I estimate that their San Gono continent is like the Tubis steppe, where grass grows without crops, otherwise their flour would be so horribly expensive." ”

Caldis nodded and replied, "Well, if they are as rich in crops as our Knight, it will not be their turn to come and exchange their war horses for food with us, which is a good thing." ”

Miller smiled and patted the maroon war horse, and praised happily: "Oh, this horse's skin is so smooth, and the muscles are really strong." I guess this horse may be a BMW, and it can understand human speech, do you believe it, Lord Duke? ”

Caldis smiled and said: "What BMW is not BMW, isn't it just a mount, you can ride into battle to kill the enemy." ”

After saying that, Caldis turned over and stepped on the maroon war horse, and left with the guards in a puff of smoke.
