Section 10: Tutors (II)

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Orcs can also forge weapons, and even the casting process of individual tribes is not bad, and in the orc royal court, it is said that there are some dwarven master craftsmen who are guiding the orcs to cast, and it is unknown whether those master craftsmen were coerced or lured.

However, in terms of the overall level of forging, the Terrans are still far superior to the Orcs, and only the dwarves who are good at forging are slightly better.

In the past, although trading weapons and armor with orcs was also traded, in fact, Franklin secretly banned official trade, which meant that orcs were only allowed to trade with individual merchants in the trade market. However, when a large number of goods were traded by the City Lord's Mansion first, the remaining goods of the orcs could only arm individuals with the fine-grade weapons that could be bought in the bazaar.

And Hammer's bulk commodities are usually traded in the city lord's mansion first, Franklin has the right of first trade, if he uses the specified items to exchange all or most of the orcs' goods, Hammer They can trade in the bazaar is extremely limited, even if they exchange weapons and armor, they cannot trade in large quantities, which virtually restricts the bulk sale of weapons.

But if it is completely liberalized, and the orcs really provide so many goods that Franklin can't trade them all, then the orcs will be able to obtain sophisticated weapons and armor in large quantities in the bazaar.

Although no merchant seems to have this ability yet, if the profit is too high, I am afraid that it will not be able to stop a large chamber of commerce like the Song of the Silver Moon.

Moreover, the Rhine also made a special mention of the artisan foundry in the Free City, which means that he had visited the Free City before coming to meet Franklin, and thought that the Free City alone had the ability to provide it.

Sure enough, he continued: "Some of our needs, your city itself has enough capacity to provide. ”

Franklin's face darkened, but he didn't speak.

Sidipat, however, seemed to know Franklin's thoughts, "Don't worry, city lord, we need weapons in the Rhine, not against your city, and we will not use the weapons you provide against you in the future, unless your city first fights our idea." ”

Franklin smiled, of course he would not believe just by Sidipat's words, although the relationship between the Free City and the orcs is now quite harmonious, only at the beginning of his establishment of the city with the orcs, and then the well water does not interfere with the river water, and the relationship has been getting better and better since the beginning of trade, but it is only based on interests.

It would not be surprising if one day the Free City and the Orcs were at war, and Sidipats and their wielding the standard weapons they had obtained from the Free City against the Forgers.

But of course not now, Franklin said slowly, "What if I can't agree to your request?"

Sidipat's chest was touched, "It doesn't matter, we will still trade with Free City, but at the same time we will also trade with some border cities of Turing and Asturias in Aurora. ”

Franklin guessed Sidipat's reactions, such as the threat of war, but he didn't expect Sidipat's words to say this, meaning that he would trade with other cities of the Terrans, weakening the role of the Free City, or even replacing it entirely.

The border city of Asturias is just that, after all, the Church of Light is still the state religion of Asturias, even if it also learns the Free City to trade, but in terms of weapons, it can be smuggled at best, and the number will definitely be limited.

But Turing is different, it is a city very similar to the style of the Free City, it also stands at the junction of Aurora and the wilderness, a little later than the Free City, but it is also said to act as a bridge between the orcs and the human race like the Free City.

"Turing seems to be very close to the Tigers, but far away from you. Franklin said.

"Yes, so I want to have a closer relationship with you. Sidiparte said.

"I hate being threatened. Franklin dropped his daughter from his knees, took her little hand and stood up, and suddenly a gust of wind poured out of him.

The hall suddenly seemed to be caught in a storm, and some of the chairs that had been placed in place fell back and crashed into each other, then flew up and crashed into the wall.

The four Bills were taken aback, holding their bodies in a heavy breath and glaring at Franklin.

Only the part of Franklin's seat on the steps was unharmed, and Wang Qinian was affected at the bottom of the steps, and was carried backwards by the invisible force, and hurriedly hugged a pillar before stopping.

"What a strong force. Sidipat's eyes lit up, and he took a step, intentionally or unintentionally, just in front of the fox girl Beatrice, and then the storm within five meters centered on him stopped as if it would go around.

"Well, I admit that you are qualified to present the conditions you just made to me. Franklin reined in his strength, but he was also taken aback, just now he had already shown a Dou Qi storm above level sixteen, reaching the level of a heavenly knight, but Sidipater was able to remain unaffected as if nothing happened, and also protected the others.

"But I still can't fully promise you. "I can promise you to liberalize the types and quantities of trade, but I still have the right of first refusal, and you can't specify what to exchange." ”

"Mr. City Lord, I admit that you should have the right of trade priority, because this is your territory after all, but if we can't specify what to exchange, you shouldn't specify what to exchange for ours. Sidipate sneered, "We like wine, but we don't want to have to exchange a lot of wine with you every time, we should have the right to share the resources we want to exchange, otherwise, don't you think it's also unfair?"

"Wait, then why don't you use currency?" Wang Qinian's voice suddenly sounded, "Currency, I mean currency, just like this. ”

Wang Qinian took out an eagle-shaped silver coin from his bosom and held it high.

He said to Sidipat: "You must have seen the currency of the Terrans, the fairest way for everyone is that the Lord of Franklin and you both use currency in commodity trading, which is very common in the trading of the Terrans, you have also been to the bazaar, you must have also seen that we Terrans have long used a lot of money in business in addition to bartering." ”

Wang Qinian's mind flashed through the knowledge he had learned before that he had not completely returned to the teacher, that money was the product of being stripped from commodities as general equivalents at a certain stage of commodity exchange.

"Yes, I saw it myself at the bazaar, and I asked Hammer about them. Sidipater said, "You mean that I exchange goods with the Lord of Franklin, and he pays me the equivalent amount of currency, and I use these currencies to buy things, and the Lord of Frankland cannot restrict me from buying them, provided that I have enough so-called currency, right?"

"Yes. Wang Qinian said, "Since neither of you wants to be specified by the other party to exchange the variety and quantity of goods, then the city lord pays you in currency, and you use the currency to buy what you need from the city lord, including the output in the craftsman's foundry, if the city lord can't sell you the required quantity for some reason, you have enough currency to order in the bazaar." ”

Franklin narrowed his eyes at Wang Qinian, but he didn't stop Wang Qinian from speaking.

On the orc side, everyone but the four big-looking Bills and Bears looked surprised, and this seemed to be the best way to resolve the differences between Fran Rinklin and Sidipater at the moment.

"No, it won't. Hammer smiled bitterly, "There are too many types of gold, silver, and copper coins of your human race, which are all circulated in the Free City, but on the contrary, the Free City itself does not mint currency, and if you regard currency as a commodity, it means that this currency is not in your hands." And even if you produce currency, it's too chaotic, we have been trading with you for so long, and every time we have to barter, we have to bring a lot of goods, and there are a lot of restrictions, if I really use your method, I can even consider selling fresh pineapple beast meat and earth dragon steak in Free City. ”

Wang Qinian couldn't help but be speechless, the Munk people deserved to be the most proficient in trading among the orcs, and they actually planned to open a butcher shop in the Free City.

Don't underestimate it, the pineapple beast mentioned in Hammer's mouth is just that, it is a monster that resembles a pig, the meat is extremely tender, and of course it is very expensive.

The Earth Dragon Meat Steak is not only delicious, but the most important thing is that this is a kind of wurm, if it can even be used as a mount after being tamed, their meat can enhance people's physique, and its value is even higher.

In terms of hunting Warcraft, Orcs are much stronger than Terrans, and this is their daily activity.

"I think this is the way he says, and if you are willing to accept it, I promise you, that as long as you act in accordance with the laws of the Free City, and pay for the goods and quantities, as long as the other party is willing to sell, and you can pay enough money, you will not be restricted. Franklin said.

"No, I can't. Sidiparte shook his head, "Hammer has pointed out that your currency is very chaotic, and we need a stable exchange as a yardstick. And I think there is also a very key point, this kind of equivalent exchange must be valuable to the other party, because after all, he is clear to your human race, if one day we accumulate a large amount of your currency, and your human race declares that this kind of currency will stop the equivalent exchange, can only be used as a general commodity, and choose another equivalent exchange, then the value of the currency left in our hands will be greatly reduced. ”

Wang Qinian glanced at Sidipater with some surprise, the orc in front of him really surprised him a little, what he said was not much advanced knowledge in the world before Wang Qinian crossed over, but in this world with a high level of magical civilization, currency is still in the era of metal currency, and most people may not be able to say this opinion.

Franklin's brow furrowed again, but his daughter, that Agatha, kept looking at Wang Qinian, as if believing that he would have a way.

Wang Qinian had no choice for the time being, because after all, he had been in this other world for too short, and it turned out that Owen of this body was only a magic apprentice, and the information he could leave him was limited.

"Ahem, that means that we have reached a certain consensus that if we can solve the confusion of the currency system and the value of the currency against each other, the Free City and Mr. Hammer and Mr. Sidipate can increase cooperation and strengthen trade. Wang Qinian said.

"Well, that's the end of the day, this time the goods are still in the cargo, I will use half the value of the spirits, the rest of the salt and medicine, plus a small amount of weapons, and I will send an adjutant to contact Mr. Hammer tomorrow. "I'll go on thinking about this little man, my daughter's governess, and if I can think of a solution, I'll talk to you again the next time you come to trade." ”

"Well, I hope the city lord and this governess can really think of a way to dispel our doubts. Sidiparter took a deep look at Wang Qinian.

Franklin summoned Zoe to take the members of the Orc Trade Order out of the Castle Lord's Mansion.
