Release that Witch

149. Chapter 149 Kingdom Capital Merchants (below)

    “Do you specialize in saltpeter at Kingdom Capital?”Roland cuts the way.

    “No, Your Highness,” Margery is no longer a formulaic smile at the moment, and the words are more intimate. “I run a lot of things, from gem to cloth, from hotels to pubs. In fact, I did not make a sale of saltpeter a month ago. Only the original owner of the smelting field lost his trousers in my casino and had to mortgage the site to me. ”

    Not only sells all kinds of goods, but also serves the service industry…What the businessman is coming to? To know that opening a casino at Kingdom Capital is not only possible with money. He knocked on the table, and Nightingale was in the middle – which meant that the other person had a God Punishment Stone and couldn’t tell if he was lying.

    waitSince it is impossible to observe, why did she force herself to the right before she slammed it?

    Roland coughed twice and held back the urge to turn back.

    He had heard that some merchants from the fjord settled in the Four Great Kingdoms, and the business grew bigger and bigger, and the accumulated wealth was unimaginable. After all, the sea people are born businessmen, very adventurous and at the same time have a keen sense of smell, good at capturing business opportunities. Many people have been cut as wool after they have made their homes, and some have successfully established their footholds and bought local relationships to form a more stable interest alliance. Is Margery one of the big dogs?

    In this case, Roland decided to make a straightforward request. “I need a lot of saltpeters, the more the better.”

    “The Western Region is not a hot place, especially the small town near the Impassable Mountains. Your Highness, do you really need so many saltpeters? ”She is curious. “On the outskirts of Kingdom Capital, I have three furnaces that are enough to supply a noble ice in a medium-sized city.”

    Three-seat system! Roland was overjoyed and there was no change in the expression on his face. “I plan to build a cold storage in the basement of the castle to store some fragile food. If you give the right price, I have to use these saltpeters. ”

    “Since you have said this,” she nodded. “I can ship all the saltpeters to Border Town and only charge 90% of your market price.” But

    “But what?”

    “I don’t really want gold royal, they are all filling up my warehouse. I heard that you have some very strange products here. If you can, can you use these instead of gold royal? I will be happy to reach a deal with you. ”

    “Peculiar product?”Roland groaned, and he was the first to hear that someone didn’t want gold royal.

    “Yeah, for example, a black iron creation that can run on its own,” Margery leaned forward slightly. “Your servant said that this thing only needs to be ignited and boiled, and it has amazing power. In fact, I just heard about it and decided to come to Border Town’s in person. Otherwise, it would be more in my interest to sell saltpeter directly to Kingdom Capital noble. The farther I travel, the more I suffer. ”

    This is really an unexpected surprise, Roland thought. Although I don’t know how Barov’s apprentices got on this line and how to talk about the Steam engine, it’s clear that the Kingdom Capital businessman is very interested in it.

    The amazing profit of industrialized products is very clear to his heart, especially the mechanical products that only he can make. He was also worried that after Border Town no longer sold the ore, the coins that came from Duke House always had a useful day, and I didn’t expect an excellent opportunity to be in front of him.

    “So that’s it,” the prince smiled. “What you said is Steam Engine, which converts the steam produced by boiling water into power. The principle is simple, but only Border Town can produce it.”

    “Does this kind of thing really exist?”

    “Of course,” Roland said. “But it’s very complicated to make and it’s expensive. If you are interested, you can follow me to see the real thing. ”

    “I am very happy,” she said excitedly.

……

    Northern Slope Mine, Margery saw the screaming steel monster pulling the stone-filled mine car out of the mine a little bit, and his eyes fell quickly.

    “His Highness, this, this…It’s incredible. ”She trembled. “I thought that your envoy was exaggerating. I didn’t expect him to say that it was far behind…I am afraid that dozens of people can’t match this one…Steam engine. ”

    The woman wanted to watch it again, but it was stopped by Roland. “The Steam engine at work is very dangerous. Don’t rely on it too close. Did you see the white air that was sprayed out? As long as you touch it, it will burn your skin. ”

    “Do you only use it to mine?”She had to raise her head and ask loudly because of the noise.

    “There are two mines in total, the first machine is responsible for pulling the mine car, and the second machine is responsible for the mine pumping.”Roland answer said, “In fact, from the successful development to today, Border Town has only produced three Steam engines, and I have to use them where they are most needed. But its use is very wide, except that you can replace the windmill and waterwheel to grind wheat, and is not affected by the river Breeze force. Any place that requires a lot of manpower or animal power can come in handy, even install a sailboat, drive a paddle, and sail without a sailboat! ”

    He knows how ignoring the significance of the windboat Breeze to the fjords. Sure enough, Margery looked at Roland and his eyes were coming out. “You open a price, I want to buy it!”

    “This is not the case, the mine has to rely on it to maintain production. You can order a few new Steam engines first, wait until the saltpeter arrives, and then settle. ”

    “It’s the price…?”

    Roland took her to a position far from the mine hole, and the noise of the machine was not so harsh. “Five hundred gold royals,” he said. This price is a bit exaggerated, almost equivalent to the income of a Knight’s territory for the whole year. Steam ore costs about twenty gold royals, plus smelting, labor, installation, and fifty gold royals. However, buying and selling, it is necessary to bargain.

    “So that’s it!” I want to buy ten Steam engines! ”

“……”Roland smashed, ten is 5,000 gold coins! It’s almost equivalent to Duke Ryan’s five or six years of savings. Even if there is no bargaining, is the dog big business doing this business? He cleared his throat. “Are you sure? This is not a small cost. Moreover, the machine can be used without being bought, and you have to constantly invest in coins to maintain it. ”

    “I know, like a sea boat, every year, I have to go to the dock to clean up the keel parasites and algae, replace the sails and cables,” Margery didn’t care. “What do I need to change, I will pay for the purchase from you. It will be alright. It’s not working, you will pay a price, and sell the craftsmen who maintain and operate the machine to me. ”

    Roland closed his mouth. There was only one thought in his heart. It was good to have money.
