Chapter 7: South Sea Town Selling Sugar
There is no danger in the journey.
After all, it is a convoy of more than 200 people, and each can shoot bows and cut monsters, and it is a relatively safe hilly area.
At noon on the third day of departure from Sefrosa, it was also the seventh day when Orento met the mysterious female mage.
The convoy arrived in Nanhai Town.
Although it is just a small town, Nanhai Town is the largest trading market in Hillsbrad.
In the Kingdom of Ultratown, Dalaran and the demand for foreign material resources of millions of people across the hills, one-third comes from this trading town with a permanent population of only 10,000 but an immigrant migrant population of about 100,000.
This has created the prosperity of Nanhai Town.
A kind of deformed prosperity.
In the "Original plot", as the Kingdom of Ultralank disappeared, Dalaran was destroyed and moved, and the once extremely prosperous Nanhai Town became deserted.
Joby and the coachman Dorn drove the carriage from Sefrosa's house and entered Nanhai Town with familiarity.
Since he was a teenager, Joby has been in charge of contact and trade between Sefrosa and Nanhai Town, so he is very familiar with this place.
Just like his father Dobby decades ago.
Nanhai Town, Deluo Chamber of Commerce.
Under the leadership of Jobi, who was a teenager older than him, Orento came to the hall, a middle-aged man greeted him with a smile: "Welcome, Jobi. It's very honored to see you again. What goods does Sir Sefrosa need this time? The DeRo Chamber of Commerce guarantees that it's worth the money. And this one is..."
"This is my master, Orento, the new Sir Sefrosa. Master, this is the head of the Passas and Dero Chamber of Commerce in Nanhai Town." Joby introduced with a smile.
I heard that Orento was Sir Sefrosa, and Passas bowed down. But even though Passas was smiling, Orento could still feel the disapproval hidden under this smile.
"Hello Sir Sefrosa," Pasas saluted, and said to Joby: "Just and you shouldn't have eaten yet, I think we should have a delicious lunch first!"
Orendo nodded and followed Joby's footsteps to behind a door. It was a very long dining table, but there was no one around, only a few attendants waiting there.
"Come on, please sit down, I like to talk in the restaurant." As he said that, Passas ordered the serving. The servants immediately took action, and in a moment, a scent of food floated in.
The servant brought the aperitif, and Orento took a glass of it. The dishes served were very simple, with roasted lamb chops, with tender gravy, fragrant and attractive saliva, and the lettuce that he was not very interested in.
"Come on, everyone, have a drink." Passas said this when Orento picked up the fork and was about to start. A trace of insignificant mockery flashed in his smile, but it disappeared immediately.
Orendo put down his fork and raised his cup to respond. He had not spoken but surprised Passas when he opened his mouth: "I think there may be some changes in the cooperation between Sefrosa and the Dro Chamber of Commerce."
Passas was surprised, and Joby's expression was a little surprised. However, Joby didn't say anything, Passas had already spoken quickly:
"Oh? What kind of change? Jazz, our cooperation has not changed since your father inherited the title."
"Changes can be good, changes can be bad." Orondo's young and handsome face had no expression on his face, and he spoke again, "It all depends on the DeRo Chamber of Commerce."
This is a smart and sensitive young man. Passas put away the contempt he felt for being too young.
This time the businessman became very polite.
"Dro Chamber of Commerce and I will definitely turn this change into a good change! I believe it." Passas responded loudly.
"Maybe." Orendo looked irresistible, and then he said to Joby: "Take the thing out and let Passas take a look."
Joby nodded respectfully, then carefully took out a wooden box from his arms and then opened it gently.
"What is this? Crystal white particles? Better wheat flour?" Passas said curiously.
Orento's voice is dull.
"This is a kind of sugar. Its name is snow sugar. Look, every particle is as white as snow, without any impurities, and each has the purest and sweetest sweetness."
"Only with such good appearance and perfect inner snow can we be worthy of banquets and desserts in the upper class, and can we highlight the noble status and status of the upper class."
Passas quickly stepped forward and twisted it, and his eyes changed immediately. As one of the senior leaders of the Chamber of Commerce, his sense of business was quite sensitive, and he immediately discovered that this kind of snow sugar had extraordinary prospects.
You should know that sugar itself is a luxury product, and even has the saying that high-quality sugar is worth half of gold with the same weight.
But even so, they are still some crude brown sugar, and this kind of snow sugar that is as white as snow and has no sense of discomfort is difficult to not be sought after by the upper class.
However, Passas was so sophisticated. Although he found that this was a very valuable and promising commodity, he still smiled calmly and said lightly: "Well, it's quite good. I can buy it from you twice the price of ordinary brown sugar."
"Hmm...how much of this snow sugar do you have?"
In the end, he seemed calm, but in fact he asked Orento in a turbulent heart.
The price of brown sugar is about 20 new Lordaeron coins per pound, and the price of the best brown sugar.
That is, it is almost half the weight of the same gold.
Orondo said.
"I brought 5 pounds of snow sugar here."
"Only 5 pounds? Too little! But I can give you 100 new Lordaeron coins!" Passas said quickly.
5 pounds are indeed very small, but after the Dros Chamber of Commerce operates, you can sell at least 300 new Lordaeron coins for a price.
Be more cruel, it is not impossible to sell this rare luxury product to 500 new Lordaeron coins.
"These 5 pounds are not sold. But I can give them to you." Orendo shook his head.
Passas frowned immediately.
Qualified businessmen never believe that there is a free lunch in the world. Instead of selling it, they will give it away. There must be some requirements later, which must be more than 100 new Lordaeron coins.
"What I want to sell to you is a secret recipe for refining this kind of snow sugar." Orento said leisurely. "I don't know how much it is worth? I don't know if you are interested."
"Very interested!" Passas said decisively.
"Then how much are you going to pay?"
"Two thousand, no, four thousand new Lordaeron coins!" Passas quoted a price.
Orendo smiled and shook his head, and he said to Passas again:
"Before coming here, Joby and I had already visited several other chambers of commerce and showed them this kind of snow sugar. Well... the quotes from other chambers of commerce were not lower than five thousand new gold coins at the lowest."
Actually, there isn't.
