Lord of the North

Chapter 39: All by acting

   "I have investigated before I came here. Although the iron tooth collar is barren, but bows and arrows and leather armor are still very popular in other places." Verlia took a sip of water and said.

  Vallia was ready to master the rhythm, and threw a condition that Jason could not refuse.

   Indeed, these bows and arrows are very popular in the southern part of the kingdom, and even in other countries. Hunters in the north are used to short bows.

   This kind of bow is short, light and easy to carry, and it is very delicate with a little modification. It is very popular among the nobles, but this kind of short bow trade is really only done in the Susin Kingdom.

   Jason has limited channels and can only be sold near the Northland. Not to mention the small profits, he will be charged a large tax by the local lord, and the inconvenience of transportation has also made Jason annoyed for a long time.

   He wanted to learn how to lay railways and build steam engines across the predecessors, but reality shattered his fantasy severely.

The first problem    encountered was lack of money, the second was lack of iron, which was no different from the first. The third was that he knew nothing about the structure and production of the steam engine except that it was driven by steam.

   Then he wanted to make gunpowder. Apart from knowing that he needed charcoal, saltpeter and sulfur, he was also confused. No one even knew what sulfur was.

   Although he knew that there would be sulphur near the volcano, there was only one place in the whole continent where there was a volcano. To the south of the continent, this road was no longer accessible.

   Now he sees another opportunity.

  If it can be sold to a business alliance for operation, or sold directly to the Kyle family, it is indeed a very good choice for him, so that Jason does not have to face the **** group of vampires.

   The premise is that Willett can give herself a satisfactory price.

   But the initiative is not in his own hands. Jason rubbed his forehead slightly in distress. He was too excited just now.

   "But the number of bow-makers is too small, and a good short bow can't be made in a day or two. The work efficiency is really low." Jason said distressedly.

   There are only more than three hundred bow-makers in the entire arsenal. They have a bad temper and are unwilling to lower their own production requirements, but the steps to make bows and arrows are too cumbersome.

   As a result, each of these bow-makers can only make an excellent short bow in about three months. According to them, it takes a year or more to make a good bow!

   The arsenal has been established for such a long time, and only two hundred and thirty short bows have been manufactured, and only sixty to seventy short bows can be used for trading except for equipping the army.

   What's more, the materials needed to make a bow are too expensive, and the price is too low and not very suitable. This is why the hunters in the north only make bows and arrows, but do not sell them.

One is that they don’t have so much money to buy materials; the other is that they lack trustworthy channels, and those merchants are the black-hearted masters; the third is that the commercial taxes levied by the nobles are too high, and they are completely beyond the reach of individual handicraftsmen like them. Affordable.

   "The price I gave, I believe Lord Lord will like it."

  Vallia smiled slightly, she held Jason's sore feet, as long as the trade issue was stuck, the next negotiation would be much easier.

   "What conditions do you have."

   By this time, Jason didn't pretend to be confused with her.

   He has already seen that the eldest daughter of the Kyle family is clearly here to discuss cooperation with herself, no matter what purpose she is here, this business must be negotiated!

   After all, it takes money to develop iron-tooth collars.

   "I am entrusted by someone to redeem Bell Boya." Willett said with a smile.

   "I don't have a person named Bell Boya here!" Jason replied very seriously.

   Greedy guy! Villette gritted her teeth, she could see that this young nobleman didn't see rabbits or scatter eagles, but he agreed to the Boya family's request if they failed to do so, it would make these vassals chill.

   Kyle’s house also has enemies.

"It's the young man who confronted you in your territory a few months ago and was knocked unconscious." While reminding Jason, she also satirized Jason, but Jason had a thick skin and didn't care about this little problem. .

   "The Boya's family took out eight thousand gold coins and five sea pearls as a reward." Verlia said the Boya's gift, but I don't know how many Jason she deducted.

   But Jason is still thinking, as if he still can't remember, don't blame Jason for being too greedy, he is going crazy now.

   "Oh, yes, the business alliance is also willing to put out another two thousand gold coins and ten sets of chain armor to support the development of the adult's territory." Verlia was still smiling, but her heart was already cursed.

  呸! He looks pretty, but he is so greedy at a young age! Can't I remember that there is still a mayor here? Don't you ask?

   She has a deep resentment. If Jason is not an important step for their Kyle's chamber of commerce to penetrate the kingdom, she immediately got up and turned away. After all, it would not be easy to meet a prince with a strong background but temporarily excluded.

   It happened to be in contact with him about the three young masters of the Boya family to assess whether it is worthy of the Kyle family's support. The answer is obvious. The second son of the kingdom is not as unbearable as the rumors.

   "Oh! I remember, there is such a person!" Jason suddenly realized, looking at Willita apologetically.

   "If you don't tell me, I forgot about this person. I don't know if I'm starving to death." After speaking, he couldn't help but mutter.

  Willette's expression stiffened when he heard these words, but he immediately reacted. This stinky kid was entertaining her.

   "Come here, go and bring that rude fellow." Jason waved his hand to the guard outside.

   "For the face of the beautiful Miss Villette, I will let him go first this time."

   Are you looking at the face of glittering gold coins? Willett swore that she had never seen such a shameless noble.

   "Then guy, don't worry about it, I'll take him away when I leave, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, let's talk about business cooperation first."

   She calmed down quickly and got up to discuss business issues with Jason again. In such a scene, she must seize the initiative.

   "Okay, but let's have a snack first. We'll talk about business issues later. I don't want the beautiful Miss Villette to be hungry." Jason smiled and nodded and said, not picking up her topic.

   "But... but I have eaten it before I came." Willett stared at her beautiful big eyes, a little bit unable to keep up with Jason's thoughts.

   "But I didn't eat it." Jason looked innocent.

  "..."

   Just like this, Jason drank fresh milk and ate exquisite desserts with a group of people watching. He listened to the sound of Willett's drool and finished his comfortable breakfast.

  Villette clenched her small fist, almost exploding in anger, really a man with no gentlemanly demeanor.

   Seeing Jason eating breakfast with relish, she was a little hungry, she had just finished breakfast!

   What's even more shameful is that her belly actually "groaned", and that nasty guy actually gave herself a full smile.

   "My lord Marquis, if you think it's fun, just play it by yourself, forgive me for not being able to accompany you!" She sternly tried to make herself look angry and conceal her embarrassment.

   "How could it happen?" Jason looked at her innocently, knowing that Villette was on the verge of an outbreak, he immediately became serious, and if he had to understand the truth, the rhythm had returned and there was no need to challenge her bottom line.

   "Let's talk about cooperation, then!" Jason changed his frivolous expression, his face suddenly became serious and serious, and the speed of his face change made Wilette a little unacceptable.
