Byron saw that King Luojia was smiling from ear to ear, and at this time he already understood, it seems that he has miscalculated this time, and King Luojia will definitely not hold Warkas responsible.

In Imperial Byron, who was responsible for all civil coordination, the drawbacks of the disruption of the continental trade routes, as the supreme person in charge of civil affairs, Byron knew better than anyone. If this matter had nothing to do with Varkas, Byron would have supported these traders to come to the imperial capital to sell their goods, and would have created conditions for them to trade.

At this point, Byron had to give up his attachment, and he asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you ...... see this matter?"

King Luojia glared at Byron and rebuked him, saying, "What else do you see? You are in charge of civil affairs, and you yourself do not know the state of the empire? You hurry up and return the token of the Prince's Mansion to others, and isn't your Pete in charge of material mobilization? Go, go, you Pete bring in and work with Miller, and let them pull as much leather as they can to go to the sale. Knights, isn't it, how can they get leather without horses? ”

Byron nodded silently and gestured to the guard. The guards walked up to Miller and Mompot and untied them both.

King Luojia continued to teach Byron and said, "And the horses, don't they just buy some foot strength, then there are only so many horses." My empire has more than 100,000 troops, even if we give them one or two thousand horses, what can we do? You civilian officials, you just like to drill the horns, you have to know how to take the overall situation into account, don't you? You really have to learn more from the Prince. ”

Byron listened with a look of grievance, but it was also worth bowing and replying: "Yes, Your Majesty!" ”

"That's it!" King Luojia yawned and said, "Go ahead, handle this matter seriously for me, but don't make a mess again." ”

Byron nodded again and again, and sent King Luojia away, and then he left the hall with Miller Mompot without saying a word.

The coachman and the cart, as well as the wooden crates full of gold coins, Byron sent for Miller to bring them back to the restaurant. For this reason, Byron also set up a banquet for Miller Montpott, and asked Pete to entertain them by the way, and discuss the purchase of supplies later.

After a drinking feast, the observant Miller saw Pitt's shortcomings, and a perfect plan began to brew in Miller's mind.

The next afternoon, Pete was invited to the restaurant, and as soon as he entered the door, Pete was hugged by two bewitching Tubisi women, and Pete smiled crookedly.

Miller smiled and said, "Master Pete, we won't talk about business for the time being, you can rest first, and when you have had fun, we will talk about the business later." ”

Pete couldn't drive when he saw the woman, and he promised with his head full of promise: "Okay, okay, I'll be happy first, and I'll come to you when I turn back." ”

Miller nodded again and again, and closed the door for them very respectfully.

Pete didn't go out for a few days, eating, drinking, and Lazar were in the room, and he had a lot of fun.

Serving this noble lord was especially important to Miller, and if he couldn't get Pete, those horses would never be in the middle of it. After Miller came to Visa, he had already inquired into the internal situation of the empire, and knew that the Alexander family, to which Byron belonged, was deeply rooted in the empire and controlled almost most of the empire's pasture resources.

Pete was very, and he stopped after playing almost collapsed. Soon Pete came to talk to Miller about business, and Miller took him to a cabin outside the city and talked to him alone.

Before saying anything, Miller secretly stuffed a bag full of gold coins to Pete, and said very respectfully: "Little small gift, I hope Master Pete will laugh!" ”

Although Pete is richer, he didn't dare to take it this time. Pete explained: "I have already enjoyed your hospitality, you were originally arranged by Prince Wakkas, how can I be embarrassed to take your money again." ”

Miller pleaded, "Mistress Pete, I don't have a request for you, and I hope you can help." ”

"Oh?" Pete took the money bag, shook it, and said happily: "Yo, that's a lot." What's the matter, Lord Miller, if there's anything I need to serve, isn't that just a matter of words, it's necessary to be so heavy! ”

Miller replied sadly, "I don't want to buy more leather back to Knight, but I don't have enough chariots, and I can't bring horses with me." Without stronger horses, I can't pull much cargo back to Knight. ”

Pete put the bag in his arms and took the lead and said, "Well, I saw Lord Miller's convoy when it entered the city, and the panache is really not small, and the aura is too big. Your leg strength is really not good, you have to change. What kind of horses do you want to change, Lord Miller, I'll help you get them right away, there are plenty of horses in the pasture! ”

Miller leaned in close to Pete and asked in a low voice, "Master Pete, can you help me get some better horses that can take me back and forth a few more times." ”

"Good horses?" Pete frowned and asked, "How good do you want to be?" War horses? ”

Miller smiled brightly and nodded silently.

Pete shook his head and said: "That's not good, the War Horse Empire is watching it closely, it's not easy to deal with this matter!" Mistress Miller, you didn't really get a war horse for your knights, did you? ”

This question made Miller's heart panic, but he didn't expect this corrupt Pete to be so vigilant. Miller hurriedly explained: "Well, brother, what do you say! You don't look at what kind of goods we haul here, it's white flour. This thing is now priceless in Knight, it's life-saving food, it's worth less than horses? If I really want to do it for the Knights, then why should I drag the flour to your empire, look at what Master Pete said, how can I be so great! ”

"That's right!" Pete burst out laughing.

Apparently Pete just said it casually, and he didn't really take it seriously. At this time, Miller approached Pete and said, "To be honest, my business is indeed a bit big, brother, and this time I plan to scrape together three thousand carts of leather to bring back to our Nate." In order to get back and forth between the two places quickly, you have to get me the best leg strength, and each car is a big truck, and I have to have six good horses to pull it. Of course, a good horse has a good price, and I will definitely let you earn enough brother! ”

Pete cocked his fingers and counted, "Yo, six horses pull a wagon, plus you have to prepare some spare horses, then you need 20,000 war horses." ”

"yes!" , Miller whispered to Pete: "In the grassland, the war horse is only 50 silver coins a piece, if brother can come forward to help me get these 20,000 war horses, I will give you double the price, and pay you 20,000 gold coins directly, what do you think?" ”

Pete was already in charge of the Empire's material allocation, and he naturally knew the price of horses. Others bought 50 silver coins a horse, but if he wanted to mobilize the war horse, the price could be overwhelming 30 silver coins, and the profit from this transaction was a huge fortune. Originally, his father Byron was more strict with him, and he had always been worried that he had no place to make a fortune, but he didn't expect this opportunity to be sent to the door, and Pete was itching in his heart after hearing it.

Where there is money, there is everything, and people die for money, and birds die for food, which is also Pete's creed. Soon he made up his mind and agreed directly to Miller.

In return for Miller, Pitt promised to help Miller buy the leather at the cheapest price, and ordered a large new carriage for Miller for free, so that Miller could load more goods.

An order was soon sent to Date City on the western side of the steppe, and Woodrow, who was in charge of the war horse reserve, immediately got busy after receiving the order.

Woodrow was an Imperial baron, and his family had served the Alexander family for generations, and was the most loyal member of the Alexander family. Woodrow's role was to take care of the horses on the Alexander family's ranches, selecting the best horses from the major pastures, then collecting them in the high-quality pastures, and then training them to become the best war horses of the empire.

Woodrow has a son and a daughter, and the son is named Morton and is sixteen years old. The daughter's name is Sophia, and she has just turned thirteen. In addition to this, the kind-hearted Woodrow adopted two orphans, one named Hansen and the other named Bill.

In his early years, in order to raise his three sons well, Woodrow spent a lot of money to hire a knight knight of Knight and let him teach the three children various knightly skills. This wandering knight from Knight is named Westson, and he has very strong skills. Under his tutelage, Bill and Morton became more and more capable and became the best teenagers on the prairie. Hansen had already joined the Imperial Knights two years ago, and now he is a Knight Captain under Utorres, and his performance is very good.

Ever since his brother Hansen went east to fight for Knight, Bill missed his brother very much, and often stood at the intersection and looked at the east side, hoping that one day he would see his brother riding a horse back to visit him.

Two years later, however, Bill has grown into a tall fifteen-year-old, but his brother has never appeared.

Of all the children, Woodrow was the most optimistic of his adopted son, Bill, a young man who did very well and was loved by all the herders. Seeing that his adoptive father kept sending people to count the horses, Bill came over curiously and asked, "Father, are you going to send war horses for the Imperial Knights again?" ”

Woodrow smiled and said, "Kid, not this time. Master Pete has an order to buy leg power for the noble Knight traders, and he has to use war horses, hey! ”

"Foot power?" When the wise Bill heard this, he knew that things were not good, and he shook his head again and again and said: "No, why do you have to use war horses for foot power, the ordinary horses on our grassland are the best horses on the continent for foot power, why do you want to choose war horses, this is too wasteful!" ”

When Woodrow heard this, he instructed Bill, "Son, let's just say this, but don't tell anyone else, for it will be a big trouble if it reaches the ears of Master Pete." ”

Bill said unhappily: "Oh, I see, this Pete must have taken advantage of others again and done some stupid things." ”

Woodrow sighed, "Hey, I don't know why Master Pete did this, anyway, they have their own arrangements, so let's leave it alone." ”

Bill's loyalty to the Empire was fierce, and he felt that there was something strange about it, and that he had to report it to Lord Byron.

However, at this time, Sophia called from afar: "Bill, come here, my horse is gone, help me chase it!" ”

Bill still stood there motionless, Woodrow knew the kid well, he knew that Bill must be thinking about something impulsive. So Woodrow reminded Bill, "Don't be stupid, son, don't cause trouble for your father." Go and help your sister chase the horse, obedient! ”

Bill, of course, was also a very filial child, and he certainly didn't expect to cause trouble for his adoptive father. After hesitating for a moment, Bill finally gave up on the tangle and went back to help Sophia chase the horse.

Although Bill and Sophia are brother and sister in name, their relationship has gone far beyond brother and sister, and Woodrow made a decision early on that he must marry his precious daughter to the excellent Bill, which is the perfect choice.

In fact, Bill's love for Sophia is far beyond Woodrow's imagination, and the relationship between the two has long developed into a man and a woman in love.

Originally, Bill could stop the horse trade, but Miller found Pete, the son of the Duke of the Empire, who was not something to be offended casually, so it became dangerous.

A month later, 3,000 super wagons, along with 20,000 horses, were loaded with wagons of leather goods and returned to the camp outside Visa.

Escorted by the guards of the Duke's Palace, Miller triumphantly drove the convoy on the road, and this trip was safer and smoother than when he came.

Miller never dreamed that they would leave the Topis Empire with such a swagger, and even Miller himself was a little baffled to say it.
