Early in the morning of September 25th, Gray was chatting with his new wife when his personal guard captain Takia recklessly walked in and brought him a punk report, which was only four simple words: clean up!

After receiving the message, Gray only nodded faintly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

An hour later, Gray asked the Earl of Lockton to return to the realm, and the Earl of Lockton immediately nodded in agreement.

Calculating the time, now that the forces of all parties have definitely obtained the detailed information from Gray's wedding, he should return to his territory now, after all, the Harrence Territory needs him to stabilize the overall situation.

Naturally, Nessa and Cartli went together, and for this reason, the Earl of Lockton personally sent Gray out of the city, and his eyes were full of reluctance, revealing the loneliness that an old man should have, but he still did not say a word of relief.

Thor and Jenina suddenly appeared when Gray was about to leave, and left Herion City with them, Thor has been very busy these days, and the Earl of Lockton seems to have given him many tasks, and Jenina is on his side to assist him.

As for the female assassin of the Brotherhood, she left quietly, and no one knew where she went, and Gray didn't even know her name, and he didn't even have time to say thank you to her face.

In the meantime, Sir Korwin had long since returned to Beenling. Due to the newly occupied territory of West Covinde, Earl Borg could only rush to the Covinde territory as quickly as possible.

The border between the Viscount of Sikovinde and the Viscount of Uriah, Count Borg stationed a legion of troops and built several improvised fortresses.

"So, the mission was well done?"

In the tent of the main army of the Bean army, the Earl of Borg sat on the captain's chair, and below sat Sir Korwin, who had just returned from the city of Heriron, and his business adviser, a goblin named Manlun, and the others were invited out of the tent by the Earl of Borg.

Sir Korwin smiled slightly, as if he was very happy, there was a dilemma in the council hall of Fort Herain, "The thirty percent of the trade area in the port of Balan City is waiting for them to send someone to negotiate the handover!"

"Okay!" A sharp shout came from the side, and Man Lun's little goblin eyes flashed, very excited, "Lord Earl, look?"

Count Borg's gaze fell on Manlun, he thought for a moment and asked: "Your Excellency Manlun, can you be sure that letting Count Lockton develop our port trade area can drive the commerce of the entire Ben Realm, you know, this cousin of mine is very shrewd and ruthless!"

Manlun stood up, "Lord Earl, you must understand, now that Balan City is in your hands, it is completely a chicken rib, you don't have enough financial resources to develop it, I have no intention of offending you, you know, you even almost bankrupted Balan City, you need funds, you need someone to drive the business of Balan City!"

Earl Borg listened to the shrill voice of the goblin of Manlunna, and the other party said it so bluntly, which made his face a little unbearable, and he looked to the side from the corner of his eye, Sir Korwen was fuguing, as if he had not heard the conversation between the two.

Namanlun didn't seem to notice Count Borg's expression, and continued: "The geographical location of Balan City is even better than Seka City, this port city is the closest port city to the Crekra Islands, and the route can go directly to the orc tribes in the north!"

"Lord Manlun!" Count Borg frowned, "In our human kingdom, it's best not to talk about orc tribes, and if you can't avoid it, don't use a very friendly tone!"

"Alright!" Manlun shrugged, then muttered in a low voice, "Stubborn old nobleman!"

His muttering was quiet, but both Earl Borg and Sir Korwin could hear it, but it was as if they hadn't heard it, and there was no embarrassment on their faces, and it seemed that such things happened often.

"Okay! Let's get back to business. ”

As if he really didn't know that his muttering was being heard by the two men, he continued the conversation earlier: "But why do the merchant ships that come and go so rarely in Balan, but on the farther away in Seca?"

Sir Korwin knew this very well, and he took over, "That's because the city of Seka is rich in goods, all the goods and specialties of the whole southern territory can be bought in the city of Seka, and the infrastructure of their port is relatively good!"

Goblin Manlun nodded, "Yes, the development of commerce in Seka City has made their local citizens very wealthy, so their consumption level is even several grades higher than that of Baran City. That's why even the merchants on the western side of the continent are willing to go farther to the city of Seca rather than the nearer city of Balan. ”

Sir Korwin had a little worry on his face, "Your Excellency Manlun, are you sure that the Earl of Lockton is willing to invest money in our Balan City after knowing the true situation?"

Manlun nodded, "Don't worry, old sir, as far as I know, Earl Lockton is not a fool, even if he knows that this is what we deliberately arranged, he will pretend not to know, but the officials of your castle must cooperate with them well and let them feel our sincerity and integrity!"

"You can rest assured that I will personally supervise them!"

This is a major matter for Bonn, and Sir Korwin must be very cautious.

"If we move too much, will Grand Duke De Looney be dissatisfied with us?"

This is the question raised by Count Borg, after all, it is to compete with Seca City, that is, to directly grab business with Archduke De Rooney, and Count Borg's concern is not unreasonable.

Manren shook his head, which was as big as his body, and said, "Lord Earl, many of our goblin chambers have done investigations, and Grand Duke De Looney is also having a headache with the overload of Seca City. ”

As the prime minister, Sir Korwin still has the business vision he should have, "Yes, Lord Earl, as long as we develop Balan City, we can even drive the goods from the west into Balan City, and then Seca City can also benefit, and their local shops can buy the goods needed by the eastern cities of the mainland nearby, instead of running to the west." ”

Their meaning was already obvious, the city of Seka was responsible for the trade in the east, while the city of Balan was in charge of the trade in the west, and at the same time, the two cities could exchange goods with each other, which would save a lot of links and make the transaction relatively simple.

Goblin Manlun seemed to fantasize about the scene of gold coins flying in the sky, and his small eyes flashed, "Cooperate with Earl Lockton and Viscount Cage, which is equivalent to at least one-fifth of the goods in the south, will flow into Balan City, and I have also heard that Viscount Cage is preparing to plan an inland trade area in Gersenburg, if you cooperate with them at this time, the future of Balan City will have infinite possibilities." ”

The Lordan Mountains of the Dwarven Kingdom in the northwest of the Alan Continent enclose the western coastline of the entire continent, and even part of the northern coastline is included.

It is for this reason that the Goblin Commercial Kingdom on the Clarklee Islands, which is facing the Lordan Mountains from the sea, has become a transit point for goods from the two sections of the mainland, and thus began to flourish in the past few hundred years.

This is also a prerequisite for the town of Gesen to have a planned inland trade zone.

Hearing Manlun's words, Count Borg thought of other aspects, and he said worriedly: "In other words, the lifeblood of our territory in the future will also be controlled by the two of them? As long as they are willing, they can cut off most of the commodity supply chain in Balan City at any time?"

When Manlun heard Count Borg's words, he looked puzzled, "I just don't understand you human beings, how good it is for everyone to make money together, why do you have to fight back and forth, and it is not you who will lose in the end?"

Earl Borg just shook his head when he heard Manlun's words, sometimes the culture is different, and he can't understand how to say it, he thought about it, "Okay, after all, people are powerful now, I can rely on them to develop, and it can be regarded as taking advantage, just do what you said, Your Excellency Manlun!"
