No one can struggle with money.
What's more, the businessmen who come here now are mainly probing.
The nobles behind them asked them to come. In order to get involved with Kant and establish a friendly trade, they all planned to spend money without exception, and they asked to talk alone for this.
If it is really canceled this trade, or even future trade qualifications.
It is estimated that when they go back, they will be skinned by the nobles behind them.
It's early days.
Reluctantly focus on cooperation of interests.
As for after understanding Kant's truth and reality, when the unspoken rules of the nobles start to devour Kant's property, then there is no need to worry too much, just don't look too ugly.
But there is still a certain level of friendliness that needs to be maintained.
There was also competition among nobles.
If something goes wrong, and seeing that it is his political opponent, he also doesn't mind playing tricks on him.
These merchants were all low-level errands, and they didn't actually have much power, so they all chose to be quails honestly. There was no sound for a while, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
What's more, Kant is no longer what it used to be.
The benevolent and cowardly character at the beginning was just to cover up the prying eyes of others.
Get back strong now.
He doesn't need to continue to pretend at all!
Just like a week ago, the two businessmen who dared to touch Kant's bottom line and instigated many caravans to attack the post, even with the backing of Viscount Wayne, the lord of the North County, and the century-old nobles of the South County, they still killed as they said.
These businessmen saw it in their eyes, and they were even more afraid in their hearts.
Rolf wasn't exactly a good guy either.
The combination of the two is very effective in shutting them up.
Back at the central station, 10 Swadian light infantrymen immediately opened the door with their shields, and greeted them respectfully: "Lord, welcome to the station again."
"Yes." Kant nodded, and at the same time ordered: "Unload all the salt on the camel caravan."
"clear."
The 10 light infantry immediately nodded.
Called more than 50 desert robbers around, and immediately began to unload the sack full of white salt.
The swollen sacks looked like gray meat worms, but as they were unloaded and piled up, the merchants gathered not far from the south of the station, all of them stared wide-eyed, looking at those sacks, the expressions in their eyes were Extremely shocked, each of them couldn't help swallowing and spitting, their eyes were full of greed.
That is a full 400 bags of fine white salt, and the conversion price is worth 80,000 large silver coins!
Don't say they are small businessmen.
Even the hundred-year-old nobles in the South County of the Lion Principality feel short of breath when they see the fine white salt worth so many silver coins. Compared with the transportation cost and purchase cost, the profit is almost 100%!
Salt trade is profiteering!
Otherwise, those hundred-year-old nobles would not have united to form a caravan, went to the dwarf kingdom to purchase salt, and then worked so hard to transport it back at the risk of being robbed.
You know, going to the dwarf kingdom is not easy.
Not all human nations along the way.
There is also wasteland and wilderness, where many evil alien races live.
Similar to jackals, bloody and savage, without civilization, they are all uncivilized bloodthirsty savage races!
Therefore, the price of salt in human countries is extremely high. Only nobles, landlords, and merchants can enjoy this condiment. Ordinary civilians can only eat some salt occasionally. Ordinary poor people are not qualified to eat salt at all!
This is also no way, in the feudal era, the average life expectancy of the common people and the poor was less than 35 years old.
Nobody cares whether you eat salt or not.
Even if it is salt, some people eat low-quality salt.
It is astringent and sour, with only a little bit of salty rock salt produced in some small salt mines underground and in ravines.
Anyone with a certain status will not eat it. After all, there is no way to purify and remove impurities. Eating too much of this rock mineral salt will cause irreversible damage to the kidneys, and it will really kill people!
Of course, civilians and poor people who have no money don't care whether they die or not.
Anyway, among them, very few people can live beyond the age of 45.
Kant didn't care about this. People were born, aged, sick and died. If he took care of so much, he would not be able to take care of it. As long as he took good care of the civilians in his territory, it was enough.
After a short rest, Kant said: "I will let those nobles enter the station soon, and I will have a chat with them in person."
"clear."
Rolf nodded.
Kant brought 10 royal knights with him, plus the 3 royal knights who stayed at the station in advance. The defense was absolutely strict, not to mention his Salander riders and desert robbers outside, so it was absolutely no problem to prevent these merchants from making trouble.
It is estimated that the hundreds of merchants and caravan guards, even if added up, are no match for the 13 royal knights.
After all, this is a royal knight at the peak level of a grand knight!
Following Kant's orders.
The whole station is in order.
After breakfast, the cavalry put away their tents, extinguished the bonfire, and rode their horses slowly around the surroundings, gradually warming up their horses and restoring them to their peak state for charging during the day.
With the spear clenched tightly in his hand and the scimitar at his waist, all of them looked energetic.
Those nobles are all observant.
Each one was thoughtful.
Kant's life experience and Princess Sophia of the Silver Plate Kingdom are not secret news. Although they are blocked, they follow others' opinions and talk about each other quietly, which adds to the exaggeration of this story and attracts people's attention.
At least the friction between the Yinpan Kingdom and the Lion Principality has always existed.
Waited a moment.
Rolf came out with a ferocious expression on his face: "Be quiet, now each caravan has a representative to enter this inn to discuss the transaction with Baron Kant. No weapons or guards are allowed. At the same time, there must be no disrespectful behavior, if we find out." Rolf paused, but his tone became more serious: "Then I will let you sleep forever in an unknown bunker in the desert. !"
The merchants nodded in response, but they didn't dare to say anything more, for fear that their tone would offend this villainous nobleman who had no bottom line, and the loss would outweigh the gain.
Even the new caravans were notified in advance and obeyed the rules honestly.
Although there are also many high-status businessmen in it.
But looking at those scimitars and spears shining coldly, and the desert robbers and Sarande riders staring at each other, they all understood in their hearts that if they want to make a fortune here, they must first be respectful.
The station was opened, and the group of merchants walked into the hall.
Kant was sitting at the head of the long table, with four royal knights wearing full plate armor on each side.
The whole body is shining with silver light, which is more dazzling than ordinary knights wearing chain armor.
The strength is naturally stronger!
