Chapter 9 Buying and Selling The City of Harmony

This time it was not without benefit for Tydamir to let Edward buy supplies.

The barbarian race doesn't look very down, but because of fertility, the number of barbarian people in the entire Northland is as high as tens of millions.

Originally the patriarch of a single tribe, Tedamir fled and gathered nearly 3,000 people.

Most of these barbarians were young adults and children.

The barbarian is physically robust and not afraid of the cold, especially when it comes to combat, and the barbarian is simply a natural expert.

Therefore, most barbarians have fourth-level strength when they become adults.

This is still a situation where the barbarians lack weapons, and if they can be equipped with decent weapons, the strength of these barbarians can be comparable to that of a fifth-level high-level warrior.

The supplies that Tedamir asked Edward to buy included iron, clothing, and food, and of course it would be better if he could buy weapons. All of these things are compensated by the materials of the Ice Monsters that the Barbarians have obtained from hunting during this time.

These ice and snow materials, such as the ivory of the mammoth, the saber tooth of the saber-toothed tiger, the fur of the arctic fox, etc., are all things that can be sold for a lot of money in the human world, and the barbarians usually use these things to buy some materials that the barbarians lack from those human merchants.

These things, of course, would be sold to the barbarian chieftain for some broken iron pots, salt, cotton cloth, and porcelain. Anyway, these things will be used as a treasure by many uninformed barbarian leaders.

Tedamir told Edward to buy supplies that needed to meet the number of five thousand people, and what to give Edward, even if Edward was not in access. But according to the most common calculations, Edward felt that the value of these goods was enough to buy the goods of 100,000 people.

Edward actually calculated these things based on the prices he learned about when he was in the Silver City-State.

The Silver City-State is a magical civilization though. But the establishment of its characteristic factories and companies makes it much better than modern civilization. So anything is cheap there. Of course, sometimes the price will go up a bit, because the silver city-state itself has a high per capita income.

For example, the griffon empire where food is cultivated is cheaper, and the northland itself is scarce, so the price will naturally rise a lot, so even so Edward thinks that these goods will definitely buy the materials needed by 100,000 people.

If these goods were to be transported to the south, I am afraid that the price of these things could rise more than tenfold.

So of course our shrewd Edward would have agreed to the task.

Tedamir, this is simply a good guy who sends money to the door.

Of course, Edward probably didn't think so all in his heart.

After all, if you think about Tedamir, the future barbarian king, first he was absolutely polite to Edward, and then he became a brother. In the end, Edward was asked to help him buy supplies.

When Edward did this, Tydamir had to owe Edward a big favor.

This is simply a typical fool who was sold and paid for the money!

Edward has a lot of gold coins in his hand anyway, and when the time comes, he can use the space ring to get all the materials away, and when the time comes, he will definitely make a lot of money by getting them together and selling them in the silver city-state.

But now you can't use the space ring to take everything away, after all, the space ring is very rare.

Spatial items such as Edward and Ebesse's possession of a large internal space are each priceless, and are usually owned by sub-legends and legendary masters.

So if you want to say that the space ring is used to realize the long-distance transportation of materials, this kind of thing is rarely done because the price of the space ring is more than this price, and what is the identity of the person who uses it. How could you do such a thing.

Of course, Edward naturally doesn't belong to this ranks, so buying and selling with the Space Ring is really a good way to make money.

It's just that this kind of thing must not be discovered, otherwise people will come and kill you and rob the ring, and you will have no place to cry when the time comes.

That's why Edward didn't dare to take out the space ring. Now the caravan still walks slowly with the goods.

The road from the valley where the barbarians are located to the unicorn principality is very safe, and there are no monsters along the way, even if the monsters smell the frost wolf, they will have long since fled.

The northernmost city of the Unicorn Principality is called Maple Leaf City.

The city sits on the banks of the Maple River. The river is lined with maple trees, hence the name.

The city is famous for its beautiful scenery and maple sugar. There are many people who like to experience the scenery of the Northland.

Because there are two countries around the unicorn principality, one is the elven country Elolan, and the other is the druid country Stag Principality. It's all the territory of the natural church.

Therefore, most of the cities of the Unicorn Principality do not have walls.

In addition to the fact that there is no pressure from foreign countries, the internal tax burden of the unicorn principality is extremely low, and there are not many nobles, most of whom have also joined the relief organization, so the people live very well, and naturally there are no thieves.

However, many cities in the north still have built city walls, because the environment here is relatively harsh, and there are many monsters. There are also passages to the dungeons around, where there are also dark elves and underground monsters from time to time, so the few troops of the unicorn principality are sent here.

Because of the economic prosperity, the troops of the unicorn principality are scarce, but all of them are elites, and each one wears a full set of armor, and it is the top of the enchanted armor customized from the silver city-state.

The interior is also lined with silk, which can be said to be very luxurious.

The Duchy of Unicorns is a religion of light colors, and most of them wear white and baby green clothes.

Because the unicorn principality advocates education, it is basically the place with the highest education penetration rate except for the silver city-states.

(The unicorn principality has a small population, and education is predominantly urban dwellers.) )

Therefore, when you enter the city, you will find that everyone is well-behaved, no one is loud and rushing, and it is a very quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

In short, Edward who entered Maple City could feel the unique peaceful charm of the Unicorn Principality in every way.

This made Edward, who was constantly experiencing cruel adventures, relax at once, no wonder so many strong people like to come here to live in seclusion in old age.

Only Edward, Ebesse, and Yogg entered the city. At this time, Yog shaved all the beard on his face, his hair was groomed, and he put on a fur coat, and he really looked like a human being, not a barbarian.

Edward soon arrived at the Chamber of Commerce here.

Because the unicorn principality is so prosperous, in addition to tourism, it is a developed economy.

The tax burden here is very low, unlike the Duchy of Jinbei, although the business is also developed, but the tax burden is quite high.

Of course, this also has something to do with the geographical environment, the Duchy of Jinbei is located in the middle of the griffin empire and the silver city-state, and is a bridge between the two countries.

It is also engaged in maritime trade smuggling business with the chaotic collar, and no matter how high the tax is, there are still many merchants.

The unicorn principality in the northern part of the continent is different, although it is located on the shores of the inner sea of the Sea of Horsley (Crystal Sea).

It is surrounded by the Elven Kingdom, the Buck Principality, the Wolf Principality, the Bull Principality, and the Griffin Empire, but the location is still a bit remote.

If it weren't for the beautiful and holy creatures like the Unicorn, it would have been impossible for the Unicorn Principality to develop like this. That's why such a low tax burden is set to attract businessmen.

The combination of a peaceful environment and a low tax burden naturally attracted businessmen.

This also led to the high status of merchants in the unicorn principality.

Chambers of commerce basically control most of the city's economy.

Therefore, if Edward wants to buy a large number of supplies, he must go to the Northland Chamber of Commerce in Maple Leaf City to purchase them. (To be continued.) )
