Chapter 172: Making Money, Reserves

"Deal!"

Hearing that Locke agreed to himself so readily, Sabeth also nodded with satisfaction, it seems that Locke does intend to support himself!

100,000 rounds of ammunition is not a very large number for Sabeth, but you must know that Locke did not sell weapons at all before, so the major forces have a very large demand for ammunition. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

And Locke doesn't have much restriction on the sale of weapons, you can buy them if you have money, but he has very strict control over the sale of ammunition, and will never allow any force to store these ammunition.

So if he can get 100,000 rounds of ammunition, it will definitely be a big profit, at least these 100,000 rounds of ammunition will be enough for his northern army to use for a while. In the meantime, he can continue to buy a batch of ammunition from Locke!

After the deal was made, Sabeth handed over one million gold coins to Locke, who exchanged the guns and ammunition that Sabeth had purchased from the arms system, and then ordered someone to move to the training ground and give them to Sabeth!

Seeing the boxes of guns being carried out one after another, Sabeth's eyes were filled with frenzy!

He was the first person outside of Locke's direct forces to be able to buy so many arms and weapons!

At this point, he is faster than others, so in the future, he will occupy the initiative and be able to gain a great advantage in the struggle with other forces!

"Your Excellency Sabes, these thousand guns are divided into a hundred boxes, and those ammunition are also divided into a hundred boxes, a total of two hundred boxes!"

Locke said, gesturing to the boxes that the Senna soldiers had brought out.

It's for Sabeth to inspect the goods and make him think about how to transport them!

Sabeth trusted Locke, and Locke didn't need to cheat him for this, so he just counted roughly, and nodded after seeing that there were enough two hundred boxes.

It's just that how to transport it, this is indeed a big problem!

The city of Senna is hundreds of miles from the capital of Holman Kingdom, and it would take them two days to move at full speed, and if they carried these two hundred chests, it would take three days to say the least!

The point is that he only brought one personal guard, only a few hundred cavalry, and he can't tie all these boxes to the cavalry's horses and transport them back!

The small number of people and the long distance have become two problems for his transportation, and there is no guarantee that there will be no other forces who will stumble on them on the way.

"Transportation is a big problem!"

Sabeth sighed, beginning to regret that he had brought more men with him.

Even if he could bring two hundred more cavalry, the situation would be much better than it is now, at least he would use half of his men to carry these things, and the other half of them could act as escorts.

The strength of the guards, which were already armed with firearms, could not be underestimated, and no one dared to deal with him so blatantly in this area, and others who wanted to make stumbling only dare to send small groups of elite troops to harass them, and did not dare to send a large army to attack them.

"It's okay, find a caravan in the city, let them transport it back for you, and then you can take your own guards to escort them over, if you don't have enough people, I can lend you a team of rangers!"

Locke saw Sabeth's plight, but he still didn't forget to help drive the economic growth of the city of Seine at this time.

During this time, Seine City benefited from Locke's open policy, and the commerce of the entire city developed rapidly, and it has successfully surpassed several nearby city-states to become the most prosperous city in this area, and even faintly replaced the Holman Kingdom to become the most prosperous city in the entire Holman Kingdom!

During this period of time, due to the development of commerce, the population of Seine City also surged, from more than 100,000 people before to more than 200,000 now, although the scale is still not comparable to the large city with a population of one million like the capital of the Kingdom of Holmin, but the potential is definitely much higher than those big cities.

The current Seine City is thriving, and all kinds of caravans are also extremely active, so Locke gave Sabes such an idea!

"Are those caravans reliable?"

General Sabeth asked suspiciously, there are millions of arms and weapons here, they are his lifeblood, he can't be careless!

"Believe me, Seine is so clean now, no one will dare to do anything to you!"

Locke smiled and patted Sabeth on the shoulder, indeed, all the merchants in the current Seine City felt the benefits that Locke brought to the city and to them, so they would not do anything unfavorable to Locke.

Although the merchants are all chasing profits, it is their fundamental interest not to harm Locke's interests now, so they are all consciously protecting Seine City!

"Alright then!"

Seeing that Locke was so determined, Sabeth had no choice but to nod his head in agreement, but when he left, he borrowed a thousand rangers from Locke to serve as guards.

Looking at the back of Sabeth in the distance, Locke was overjoyed, one million gold coins, five million arms worth, just like that!

Although in the end he still thought of helping Sabeth transport the arms and weapons back and then collect a fee from him, but after thinking about it, Locke still chose to leave this fat gap to the caravans in the city!

You can't be too greedy, he has earned enough today, and he has to give others a little food, otherwise he will just eat it himself, who will support you!

The current five million arms value Locke is not going to spend too much, at most to make some tinkering with the Senna army, and then stock up as much ammunition as possible for them.

Now that the weather has begun to warm up, it shouldn't be long before the Hobbit Kingdom side moves in, and Locke must be prepared for their attack.

At that time, the Hobbit Kingdom is likely to unite with several other kingdoms to attack the Holman Kingdom, and these will have to be handled by Locke.

And Locke firmly believes that he can win this battle quickly, as long as he wins this war, he will be able to greatly frustrate the arrogance of several surrounding kingdoms, and he can also claim war reparations from those defeated kingdoms very smoothly!

When the time comes, they will get the war reparations, and their strength will be even further, if they don't plan to pay Locke war reparations, Locke will also take action, maybe his collision with the Southern Alliance will be earlier!

"Southern Alliance, Southern Alliance, maybe it won't be long before we can meet, let me see how strong the most rapidly developing force is recently!"

Locke's deep gaze is towards the south of the city of Seine, maybe just this year, the Senna army will be the sword guide!
