Chapter 40: Buying Seeds
The deal was completed quickly, and both parties got what they wanted. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Mr. Lin, the guards under your command are really well equipped." Huo Xi only noticed the guards beside Lin Xiao now.
All of them were all armor, and it was better to say that it was armor, but it was better to say that it was whole body armor, and only some cloth was put on the outside to cover it.
It's hard for a layman to see, but Horch has been dealing with iron all day long, and he has seen a lot of armor, and this is the first time he has seen armor made of so much iron.
Looking at the exquisite appearance, each set is estimated to cost a lot of money.
"No way, safety is the most important thing."
Lin Xiao didn't want to say anything, and Huo Xi didn't ask more.
The two groups then separated, and Lin Xiao directly asked the guards to pull these truckloads of iron ore away alone, and there was no need to bring them to the town.
Back in the town, everything was normal, and after a few more days, a caravan came to Huangsha Town, and the whole town became lively.
It turned out that this caravan was selling seeds, and because of geographical reasons, there were not many people in Huangsha Town who could be used to make seeds, and many times they had to go to other places to buy them.
Seeing this caravan, Lin Xiao suddenly had some ideas.
It turned out that because this was a desert, he didn't think much about the plants in the Middle-earth Kingdom for the time being.
After all, planting is not finished, and it is still necessary to wait for propagation, grow seedlings, and brush off the original imprint before it can become a part of Xiaozhou.
Having ready-made seeds is completely different, just plant them and wait for them to sprout, and you don't have to wait for them to grow up at all.
With these reasons, Lin Xiao hurriedly set off and went to buy seeds.
……
……
"We want all these seeds!"
Such a sentence suddenly came out of the lively crowd, and many people turned their heads when they heard it, only to see a group of people coming over.
In the center of the group, there was a sick man, sitting in a wheelchair, with several soldiers standing beside him.
This sick person is naturally Lin Xiao, he has been suspended from death all day long, his face is unusually pale, and he doesn't need to cover his face with a cloth.
The people in the town also knew him and knew that he was not easy to mess with, and the people in front of them directly made way for them.
The seed seller also looked over and said with a smile: "This gentleman, my cart of seeds is worth 5 silver bars, are you sure you want them all?" ”
Lin Xiao hadn't spoken yet, and the people around him gasped, 5 silver bars were 15,000 Wen, and it would take a few years for an ordinary person to save without eating or drinking.
"Sure."
The vendor is naturally on par with the money, and if he can make a move as soon as possible, he will not let go of this opportunity, say sorry to the people around him, and start to clean up.
Several bags of seeds were all removed, and there were several types, some of which were not planted now, but still germinated.
"That's all?"
Lin Xiao looked at the vendor's carriage, and there were still two bags of seeds on it.
"Sir, this is the Grey Lord's predetermined ......," the vendor explained.
Gray Shibang is the lord of Huangsha Town, Lin Xiao has not seen him yet, and he doesn't want to get into trouble because of this little thing, so he didn't ask more after understanding it.
At present, this seed can't make Lin Xiao satisfied, looking at the seed vendor Graystone, he suddenly has a notice, and said:
"I don't know, if you'd like to do a business with me."
Gray Shi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "I don't know what business Mr. is talking about?" ”
"Help me buy seed ......"
Gray Stone was stunned, so many seeds, isn't it enough?
There are deserts in the vicinity, there are not many plants, and if you want to get more seeds, you can only go to the interior of the Middleland Kingdom.
It's not like Huangsha Town, where a large number of soldiers are basically stationed, and he doesn't have enough soldiers at all.
And he couldn't bring too many soldiers, that would be very noticeable, after all, the caravan could carry hundreds of guards with him.
Not only that, but now the transportation is inconvenient, it takes a lot of time to go back and forth, and Lin Xiao has to take care of his base camp, so it is impossible to go so far.
This seed vendor can just go in an alternative and will not attract attention.
The cooperation between the two sides was quickly reached, and Graystone helped Lin Xiao buy seeds, and he could harvest any type, even if it was weed seeds, but it could not be repeated.
Paying the deposit in advance, Lin Xiao is not afraid that Gray Stone will run away, if he wants to make more money, he will definitely help him buy it.
The seed didn't need to worry, but money was a problem, and now he had crossed the last few silver bars, and now he didn't have much money.
Making money is imminent, and you can't make much money just by selling red fruits, and the money in your pockets is still very small.
Lin Xiao didn't know how much money the nobles had, but he could also think that they must have a lot of money.
Especially the lord of Huangsha Town, you can see how rich he is from the comparison of the house he lives in with these civilians.
The fastest way to get money is to rob, there are no more than 50 guards in Huangsha Town, and the equipment is not very good, even a group of robbers of more than ten people dare to come up and rob.
Lin Xiao has hundreds of soldiers outside, as long as he gives an order, it will not be a problem to occupy Huangsha Town.
It's easy to occupy, but he'll get into a lot of trouble in the future, and he doesn't want to set up an enemy for the time being.
Since you don't rely on robbery, you can only rely on trade.
The low-end market doesn't make much money, and Lin Xiao focuses on the high-end market.
He noticed that the food in the town was not very good, and the most expensive ones were some air-dried meat and brown bread.
The nobleman ate these things, which were much worse than the white bread made in his base camp, not to mention the semi-soft white bread and the fluffy white bread.
If there were enough ingredients, such as plenty of eggs, he could have made even better brown bread.
Unfortunately, there are not enough land birds, and the hatched eggs need to be bred, and it is too wasteful to use them as food.
Even white bread is sufficient, and the rest can be talked about later.
Lin Xiao summoned pen and paper and wrote a handwritten message, not Chinese characters, but alien characters, all of which were pictographs, which had similarities with Chinese characters.
I have to say that nanochips are still very powerful, and there is no need to worry about learning or something.
Lin Xiao did not give many orders, that is, to mine silver mines, make a batch of white bread and transport it, and also to transport food and water to replenish the soldiers in the valley.
They lurk in the valley secretly, but they consume a lot of food and water every day, and they can't buy it in the town, so they have to transport it themselves.
After writing the message, Lin Xiao directly ordered a guard to take it back, and he himself did not plan to go back.
It's not that he has to stay here, but it's that he is too guilty to travel, not only is the weather outside, but the carriage is very uncomfortable to sit in, and the short time is acceptable, and the long time hurts his buttocks, and he would rather ride a horse than sit.
But he has to fake his death for this, his body is paralyzed, and even if someone leads the horse, it is still easy to fall down.
Suffering from this sin, it is better to send someone to spread the word, he still needs to stay here and completely settle down before he can leave with confidence.
