After the Full Level of the Profession

The foreman smiled at him and said, "Why don't you get off the boat and take a look? I know what you are afraid of. Are you afraid that you won't be able to leave once you set foot on the dock? Such worries are unnecessary. Look at the scenery in the distance. Steel Battleship, if we really want to kill you, can you run away?"

The captain looked at the military port in the distance. Two huge steel battleships were parked there quietly. Indeed, if these things wanted to chase a wooden sailboat, no wooden sailboat could escape. If they don't take action, they have made it clear that they will not take action against him. There is really no need to worry too much.

The captain said: "But I have replenished food and water, so there is no need to go ashore."

The foreman said: "We might be able to appreciate the goods on your ship. You have to know that although there is only one person standing in front of you, your goods are facing everyone in the entire Kingdom of Gran."

The captain thought about it carefully, and he was right. The relationship between the Dark Holy See and the Kingdom of Gran is now very bad. It is said that the trade between the Lost City and the Kingdom of Gran has been cut off. A large amount of goods are piled up in the Lost City, and there is no way to go there at all. The transportation in the Kingdom of Gran is just a transit there, and then transferred to the Desert Kingdom and the Kingdom of Noma in the north.

Businessmen are actually very disgusted with this kind of thing, especially maritime merchants. The stage for their activities is the sea, the whole world, and they are never limited to just one continent or one country. They hope to be happy on the world stage and do business happily. The practice of the Dark Holy See to block ports and not provide goods to the Kingdom of Gran is really disgusting to the maritime merchants.

"Well, I have some good things from the New World here." The captain lay on the side of the ship and shouted: "There are peppers, sweet potatoes, some rubies and sapphires, and a big piece of gold nugget! I want to know, does anyone here need it? ?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the foreman took out another crystal ball and shouted into it: "Commodity Exchange, this is Pier 17, and a captain has come here. He can provide chili peppers." , sweet potatoes, some rubies and sapphires, a big nugget of gold... Oh? Three businessmen have registered their intention to buy these things? Okay, please transfer the phone numbers of these businessmen..."

He hung up the phone and said to the captain: "Good news, there are three businessmen who need these things, and they will arrive soon."

The captain was completely confused: "I want to know, is the crystal ball in your hand a strategic communication crystal ball? Is this thing a small foreman on the dock that can be used casually?"

"This one is different. This one is made of small pieces of crystal. It has no image, only sound. It is low-cost and has entered the civilian field." The foreman smiled happily: "Of course, it is still very expensive. Ordinary people still don't need it. Starting from now, ordinary nobles and wealthy households can already afford it. Mine is not my own, it is the public property of the Wharf Commodity Exchange."

captain:"……"

It was very big. Three merchants came with their entourage. One of them was actually Robb's old friend, a traveling dwarf merchant. He hadn't been able to buy goods in the Lost City for a long time. He was full of hunger for peppers and sweet potatoes. In addition, The two businessmen were also interested in the captain's gems and nuggets. The three businessmen quickly divided up all the goods on the ship, happily loaded them into carts, and transported them all away.

Chapter 777 Help me find something

The captain felt very happy. The quantity of goods in his ship was quite large. Even in the Lost City, it was not easy to sell them all. Unexpectedly, in this emerging port, they were all swept away in an instant.

This shipment of goods is sold easily, and the profit is very good. I can happily go to the next shipment.

At this time, the foreman on the dock spoke again: "Mr. Captain, I see your warehouse is empty now. Wouldn't it be a waste to leave the cabin empty? Why not fill a boat with our goods? Then take it to another place."

The captain was in a good mood: "What special products do you have here?"

The foreman chuckled and said: "We have a lot of special products here. Look, there is a special product exhibition next to the pier. If you go in and take a look, you will know how many special products our Kingdom has. enriched."

After hearing this, the captain actually jumped off the ship. He was no longer afraid of this port. Although the current relationship between the Kingdom of Gran and the Kingdom of Noma was very bad, and they looked like they might fight at any time, but This port obviously posed no threat to him.

He took a few of his men into the specialty display room and immediately saw a pair of beautifully embroidered stockings hanging on the wall.

"Oh, I know this. These are socks that sell well in the upper class." The captain said, "I have purchased goods in the Lost City before. The purchase price of this thing is one gold coin or two."

The foreman who followed him in smiled and said: "In our place, the purchase price of this thing is as low as three gold coins per piece, because the socks in Lost City are purchased from us, and the current Lost City It’s no longer possible to buy from us.”

When the captain heard this: "Three gold coins for one? Oh! My God, I want five boxes of these socks, no, ten boxes!"

The foreman smiled and said: "Don't rush to buy too much of one kind of goods. Look here again. There is very high-quality white sugar here. You see, it is crystal clear, like crystal... The purchase of this thing The price is also 20% lower than that of Lost City.”

The captain followed the foreman around a lot and was amazed by the dazzling array of products. The key is that the prices of the products here are generally much lower than those in the Lost City.

He couldn't help but have a question: "Why are things here so cheap?"

The foreman smiled and said: "That's because the transportation cost is low. The rare products of our Grand Kingdom are mainly produced in the two cities of West Wind City and Light Road. To transport things from these two cities to the Lost City, we need to Passing through two forests, the road is difficult to navigate, and there are monsters in the way, so transportation costs are extremely high. However, to transport goods from these two cities to Hong Kong, you only need to take a train and arrive easily in a day or two, with no hassle on the way. There will be a little bit of danger. This greatly saves transportation costs and makes Hong Kong products cheap and high-quality."

The captain suddenly realized that it was an advanced train that could directly transport goods from inland cities to the port. In the same way, this port could also quickly transport goods from the sea to the inland. From this point of view, this port would The cargo throughput will definitely exceed that of the Lost City. This is only a matter of time.

The foreman smiled and added: "By the way, one of the biggest advantages of this port is that it is a free trade port. This port does not impose taxes on all goods transferred in the port. It will only be levied when the goods enter the inland." Tax."

The captain was overjoyed: "I'm Fake, why didn't you tell me this earlier? If I had known there would be no tax, why would I listen to your nonsense for a long time? I want to buy, buy, buy, and exchange every copper coin in my hand for goods."

The foreman smiled and said, "Because the most important news should be left at the end, so you will feel as if you have won a prize."

The captain was indeed as happy as if he had won a lottery, because the taxes these days are extremely high, especially the sea goods brought by sea merchants, which are often heavily taxed. But now he was told that he did not need to pay taxes at all. No wonder when he sold things to three businessmen just now, no one bargained with him about who would bear the taxes, because there was no tax here at all.

"Heaven! This is a paradise for maritime merchants."

The captain laughed.

Dozens of minutes later, as he said, the captain exchanged every copper plate for cargo and filled the entire warehouse. This warehouse was enough for him to make a lot of money.

Just when he was about to set sail and leave, he suddenly saw the man who had just greeted him on the sand stall sitting on the bow of his boat.

The captain quickly saluted: "Oh, respected lord of West Wind City, great Godafather, a hero who can fight against the black dragon, what advice do you have?"

Robb smiled at him: "Don't be so nervous. People in West Wind City will not be so cautious when talking to me. We can talk like friends."

The captain quickly "pretended" to be more relaxed, but he was still very nervous.

Robb smiled and said: "I came to you mainly because I want you to help me find something."

The captain quickly said: "I would like to hear the details."

Robb said: "You know, last year when the black dragon was flying, I had a little fight with the black dragon."

Is that Xiaoxiao? The captain was sweating profusely, thinking: That was an earth-shattering battle of yours.

Robb said: "The result of this small fight was not perfect. Because I didn't have satisfactory equipment, I was run away by the black dragon."

This sentence almost frightened the captain to death, and he secretly complained in his heart: Your ability to defeat the black dragon is already a miracle, an epic, and a feat that no one has been able to achieve in more than a thousand years. You are still not satisfied. ? Still don’t want it to run away? What exactly are you going to do?

Robb said: "So, I need equipment! And the equipment needs to be made of rare minerals."

The captain understood now: "You mean...let me help you keep an eye on rare minerals? Good things like mithril and thorium?"

Robb smiled and said: "Mithril and Thorium are both rubbish."

captain:"……"

Listen, is this human language?

Robb said: "I also know that your knowledge of metal minerals is limited, so the best metals you know are mithril and thorium, but I also know many strange metals. If I can find them, I can Make a set of real, satisfying equipment, and then... I will challenge the black dragon again and kill it!"

The captain quickly bowed respectfully: "Only you are qualified to accomplish such a great initiative."

Robb said: "Needless to say the polite words, what I want you to help find are all kinds of stones that you don't know, because the world you merchants have traveled through is very vast, not only the Demon Continent, but also the New World, the Eastern World... …You can help me find the things I want in the wider world.”

Chapter 778 The Development of Seaport City

The captain nodded: "I understand. You want me to find various stones that I have never seen before, and then you will identify whether they are the metal ores you want."

"That's right." Robb said with a smile: "Especially the New World Maya. I am very interested in the ores there. As far as I know, the merchants of the Noma Kingdom are currently the most familiar with the New World Maya. .”

The captain nodded fiercely: "You have found the right person for this. I am not bragging. I am one of the maritime merchants who is most familiar with the New World. I have established a considerable degree of trust with the Mayans over there. This The peppers and sweet potatoes I resold this time were bought from the Mayans."

Robb said: "Then I will leave this great task to you. Next time you go to Maya, help me find strange ores. If you find a stone that I am satisfied with, I will make you a lot of money." .”

The captain was overjoyed: "Where's the introduction?"
