The Ominous Lord of the Skaven

Chapter 199 Prosperity is approaching!

After solving the commercial problems, Mysore couldn't help but propose military cooperation to Ickert.

It is about the land tariffs in Prideland.

"Student, I see that your subordinates can easily wipe out two hundred orc cavalry, and their fighting power is extraordinary. I wonder if there is one thing you would like to do."

"Senior, but it's okay to say."

"It's about the remaining orcs in the defense zone. I want to hire your troops to help strengthen our defense."

"You may not be aware that many territories have recently been attacked by mysterious mercenary groups. According to the lords, this mercenary group has no humanity and only has money in their eyes!

All the territories have suffered losses to varying degrees, and some territories are even completely unable to perform their defense duties! "

Mysore said slowly, watching Ickert's expression with his eyes all the time, trying to confirm something from his reaction.

But who is Ickert, his thick skin has long been practiced.

"What kind of mercenary group, how hateful is it?"

"Night Mercenary Group."

"It's them!"

Contrary to Mysore's expectation, Ickert did not deliberately conceal the information, but directly said that he recognized this mercenary group!
"Actually, not long ago, we were also ransacked by the Dark Night Mercenary Group."

Ickert compiled the events of "that night" vividly, not forgetting that the "battle hero" Targaryen came out to prove that what Ickert said in the heart-to-heart communication, the Ratman followed suit.

Then they also talked about the "strange incident" they had during the cleaning process along the coast.

In the end, Ickert yelled at the Dark Night Mercenary Group, expressing that he wanted to eat their flesh alive!

After this operation, even Mysore is a little uncertain.

Good guy, if you think about it carefully, maybe Ickert really didn't do it!

However, the matter of the Dark Night Mercenary Corps is generally confusing, and there will be no results after discussing this matter, so Mysore threw out his real request.

"Cooperate to eradicate the orcs in the territory?"

To be honest, Ickert was extremely reluctant when he first heard this request.

Land transportation, especially once the land transportation lines between Pride Territory and other territories are opened up, will only do harm to Windsor, not good.

But Ickert still shouted "I want to join!".

Not only does he have to join, he also has to take over all defenses!

Just like the United Kingdom joining the European Union, according to their shit-stirring national policy, they should actually oppose the European Union.

But it is precisely because of the opposition that they want to break into the enemy's interior, otherwise how can they stir up shit?

Whenever there is a policy that is beneficial to the European continent proposed by other countries, then I, Great Britain, will be the first to jump out and oppose it!

Ickert is the same here, the orcs will be suppressed at any time, but how to execute them can be controlled by him.

Unfortunately, Mysore thought about it, this kid promised so readily, it's not right!

Ickert's performance in the negotiations undoubtedly made Mysore label him a "bad thing" in his heart.

This can't be blamed on Mysore's transformation, there are really some things that have to be guarded against.

After some tugging between the two, Ickert finally received a "defense fee" and sent troops to the north to maintain the trade routes there.

And Mysore will draw troops from the north to solve the threat from the south.

In this regard, Ikert could only express regret on behalf of Windsor, and expressed regret for not being able to personally support his compatriots. His words were full of guilt for His Majesty the Emperor, and his loyalty made Mysore cry.

Before leaving, Ickert took out another fifth-order magic crystal and asked his senior to help him shape it at the Princeton mage's shop, and sent Aris to the Adventurer's Guild to collect the reward.

The old senior also loaded all the agreed slaves into the car, and sent another convoy to donate 300 orc slaves to Ickert, and sent them to Windsor for mining.

There is also a plantation, which Ikert has long wanted to build.

The caravan returned to the territory with a lot of money and labor. Not only that, Ickert also contacted the masons in Rosesodol Town, asking them to prepare building materials and go to the territory for infrastructure construction, including an inland port.

Soil mage Xi Luoerman also has a new job. In the past few days, Ickert has sent him to plan and select sites and lay a good foundation.

The first iron-making blast furnace in the territory has also started to forge intensively, and a large area of ​​forest has been cut down to burn charcoal. It is expected to realize the self-production of iron ingots when the air route is fully opened, and sell the excess iron resources to the north. .

At the same time, a plan for the export of industrial products has also been put on the agenda, but due to capacity constraints, this plan is only limited to Changxiang.

However, the performance of the Magic Rifle is basically the same as that of the Enchanted Crossbow. You can try to spread the sales in this area, but you have to wait for the territory to update two generations of weapons, and you can start exporting only after you have an absolute technical advantage.

The current commodities that can be exported from the territory are nothing more than food, surplus weapons and equipment, and resources.

These things are not scarce, and Ickert's confidence in buying and selling these resources comes more from Windsor's location advantage.

The loss of food transportation on the road is extremely high, and the river transportation and Windsor's location close to the front line can greatly alleviate this situation, and merchants will be happy to buy it.

At present, the total rat population in Windsor is about [-], and it will jump to [-] next month. The food for the next two seasons is completely sufficient.

Eckert intends to sell for a quarter, and tun for a quarter.

The income brought in by this aspect will also be used to invest in the construction of the territory.

Ickert spent more than half of the gold coins earned from the Adventurer's Guild alone. When withdrawing the funds, it almost paralyzed Rossodol's Adventurer's Guild.

The money was eventually advanced to him by the seniors in Mysore.

In the future, the territory will need to purchase various scrolls, glass products, vegetables, meat and other necessities, as well as import various other metals, recruit talents, etc.
These cannot be spread without money.

The reception work of the merchants also needs to be controlled by Eckert.

During this month, Windsor has been busy up and down, and only the troops sent to the north to fish are not at ease.

The dredging of the Vanfuna River route quickly alarmed Donali in the rear, and countless civilians and businessmen were asking whether the matter was true or not.

Under the arrangement of Mysore, the cargo ships pulled up from the downstream undoubtedly confirmed this rumor.

"Walking by water can make a lot of money!"

Such words were spread in the streets and alleys of Donali, and even more coincidentally, Ikert's record of destroying the orc cavalry was also reported from the north. Well-connected businessmen have confirmed the safety of this route.

Ickert also sent internal affairs troops to escort the orc slaves to start work, and the departure date of the first merchant ship quickly spread in the city.

All of a sudden, whether it was speculators who planned to go to the north or big businessmen with a large number of goods to be shipped, they all began to plan to go to Windsor.

It was soon discovered that the tickets for the first cargo ship were snapped up, and the cargo space was occupied by merchants who had already prepared.

But this still cannot offset people's enthusiasm for the new route, and the positions of the second and third cargo ships are also fiercely contested.

Such a grand scene was naturally reported to Ickert by the Housekeeping Mouse, but Ickert also knew that if the territory and income could not satisfy them, this enthusiasm would be greatly dampened.
