Chapter 99 The First Transaction
Soon, a group of old maids came to Mocha with flour and tools needed to make food. Being able to prepare so quickly is all thanks to Chi Nan. In fact, he was already prepared from the beginning.
Mo Cha didn't know that Chi Nan didn't live in this castle. He thought Chi Nan lived on the second floor. If he had known that the second floor was a warehouse, I wonder if he would have been in such a happy mood.
Although these old maids are not very eye-catching, it is a pleasure to see them making such delicious food. In order to make Mocha realize the superiority of Hongshaling food, the soy sauce and vegetable oil that had just been produced were also taken out, and the production started in front of Mocha openly.
Seeing the art-like technique and smelling the aroma that was even stronger than what he had eaten before, Mocha almost couldn't help but eat some more. At this time, Mocha finally saw how to make flour.
The next day, Mocha wandered around Hongsha Town and saw the jujube trees planted everywhere here, as well as some workers who were constantly picking jujubes to get the flour out. Mocha suddenly became aware of all the processes. But in the heart.
"Very good, let me know how to make this kind of thing. I will definitely become a noble with a strong voice among the nobles in the future. Hum, when I become rich in the future, I will not forget your contribution." Mocha felt happy. thought.
At noon the next day, Mocha came to find Chi Nan. "Baron Chi Nan, I have been disturbing you here for a long time. I am ready to leave. But before leaving, I plan to purchase a batch of weapons here."
Chi Nan nodded: "No problem, whatever you want, we don't have many ordinary iron weapons here."
"No, no, no, I'm talking about the pea cannon. It's the kind of pea cannon that shoots beans."
Chi Nan nodded: "So it's that one. How about a golden dragon? The price is already very low."
Mocha shook his head: "No, Baron Chi Nan, yours is too expensive. The shooting accuracy of that kind of pea cannon is far inferior to that of a powerful crossbow, and there are only twenty bullets, yes, bullets, which are not enough at all." use."
The word bullet came out of the mouths of Chi Nan's soldiers. Of course, it was Chi Nan who said it first.
Chi Nan waved his hand: "You only mentioned the shortcomings, but not the advantages. Accuracy can be improved through training, isn't it the same with the crossbow? Besides, in terms of range, the pea cannon is much stronger than the crossbow. You can fire the speed of the crossbow. I have seen it before, one in two seconds, this is not something that a strong crossbow can do, not even a bow and arrow."
"Using a bow and arrow, can a soldier shoot twenty times in a row? Besides, the manufacture of arrows requires a certain cost and time. The bullets of the pea cannon only need to be exposed to the sun. There is no logistical pressure at all."
"But yours is still too expensive. The strong crossbow is carefully crafted, and it is normal to be worth two gold dragons. But your pea cannons, this is a kind of plant, it can grow on its own."
Chi Nan smiled slightly and spread his hands: "Then there is no way. Although these pea cannons are plants, they require me to use magic power to induce them. I don't have that much magic power of my own. If it's just a little money, then It’s not necessary.”
We also need to use magic power, hum. Plants can grow regardless of whether they have magic power. What I want are seeds, Mocha thought in his mind.
"Make it cheaper. If it's cheaper, I will buy more. You also know that if there are not enough quantities of these pea cannons, it will be impossible to form effective lethality, let alone play an role on the battlefield. It’s cheaper for you, and I’ll help you promote it to other nobles. This business is good, right?”
Chi Nan pretended to be silent and finally nodded: "Okay, since you are so sincere, then I will make it cheaper. Speaking of which, my price is indeed a bit high, so that's it, one golden dragon and two pea cannons."
The price was suddenly reduced by half, and the business was really smooth. Mo Cha didn't know that Chi Nan was also very happy, but it was just a little magic power, and he could plant a lot at once.
Besides, now Chi Nan has begun to study how to plant on a large scale, without having to do it himself. One golden dragon and two pea cannons. In fact, the pea cannons themselves have no cost. You can imagine the profits that the pea cannons can bring to you. When those armies taste the sweetness of pea cannons, they will take the initiative to come to you.
"Okay, that's it. I have fifty golden dragons here. Give me a hundred first."
Mocha casually took out a bag, which was bulging. When he opened the bag, he found a lot of golden dragons. There is a special kind of magic cast on this golden dragon, which can make the golden dragon shine with golden light. It is impossible to fake it.
"We are all nobles, so you don't need to be so polite. I will ask someone to bring you a hundred. If you feel it is inappropriate, you can choose it yourself." Chi Nan did not count at all.
Pea poppers are difficult for others to grow, and they don’t know how to grow them. Even if you take it back, it will only make other nobles jealous when you use it. When they find that they don't have it, they will naturally come looking for them.
During this time, I have to plant more. Alas, I have to waste my research time again.
"That's great, I'll go now. I'm ready to leave after I finish selecting. I'm sorry to bother you for so long. By the way, I also plan to buy some dry food from you for the road."
"No need to purchase, our territory is not short of food, I will give you some if you need it." Chi Nan would not miss such a good opportunity to promote himself. It's just a little loss, it's nothing at all.
Under Chi Nan's farewell, Mo Cha quickly selected the pea cannons he needed, and then asked his men to carry them. Then he got the bread from Chi Nan that they couldn't finish in a short time, and the group set off happily. Even if it was a rugged and difficult road, it was no longer a problem at this time.
"By the way, Baron Chi Nan, you'd better repair this road. This road is too difficult to walk. In the future, when doing business with others, you can't do without a better road." Mo Cha reminded.
"I know, if you want to be rich, you must first build a road, don't worry, I understand." Chi Nan didn't want to build a road. But now the wild orcs are rampant, and this rugged road is the best natural barrier.
If the road is easy to walk, it will be easy for the wild orcs to come in. Although his side seems to be quite strong, it is ultimately not possible to face a large number of wild orcs. But now, it’s best to prepare to expand the territory.
