Chapter 566: transaction

Back at the Giles Tower, Chateau first contacted Niya and informed the territory fleet that he was about to leave, and then asked her to help contact Bellera.
Niya did not agree at the first time, but asked the reason, "What did you ask Bellera for?"
"Talk to her about something."
"What are you talking about?"
hiss--
Xia Duo was a little strange. No matter what she did with Niya before, she wouldn't have so many problems. What happened today?
However, there was nothing unspeakable about his approach to Belleira, so he said directly:
"I want to talk to her about the hiring fleet. The Seventon Parliament sent troops to clear the underground passages. You should still have an impression. I think this may have an impact on maritime trade. Isn't Belera's shipbuilder? , Maybe there will be an idle fleet, just hired to bring the transportation leaders of Daxia."
"That's it! Then I'll contact her immediately!"
After interrupting the communication, Niya touched her cheek, got up and went out quickly, and went to find Belleira herself.
...
On the other side, Xia Duo was not idle, he continued to contact the Jabbas and his son, telling them to go to the port to board the ship and prepare to return to the territory.
Not long ago, he had just obtained the wreckage of an ancient magic weapon restored by Jabbas. The structure is indeed very sophisticated. Although there is no magic power, he is already looking forward to it.
However, researching this may be more difficult than cracking Feld's spellbook. Xia Duo temporarily added it to the list to be researched, and then researched it when there is time.
For Jabas, Chateau still attaches great importance to him. He has decided to let Jabas and his son explore the ancient ruins where the mysterious clay tablets were discovered when they return to the territory.
In the future, Xia Duo even plans to recruit more experienced and experienced adventurers to explore the territory, and maybe even more ruins can be discovered!
...
In a moment, Niya sent a message, and Yoshaduo met in a reception room on the public floor of Giles Tower and said that Belleira had arrived.
After receiving the news, Xia Duo immediately left and came to the agreed meeting place.
When seeing Belleira, Xia Duo thought about why Niya asked so much just now. Of course, he might have thought too much. Belleira is a female mage. Because there are so few female mage, Xia Duo completely Ignore Belleira's gender.
He had just spoken in Nether language. If he was speaking in Elvish language, he might be able to think of Belleira's gender. After all, the Elvish name contained information such as gender.
"Niya, Master Belera, I have kept you waiting for a long time."
"It's okay, we are just here." Belleira smiled, very decent and generous, "Mage Xia Duo, Mage Niya just told me, do you want to hire my fleet?"
"Yes, if there is an idle fleet."
"There should be no idle fleet now, but the future is not easy to say." Belleira frowned. Although she was very resistant to her father letting him take over the territory, she still had a certain understanding of her own industry.
Some time ago, the Seventon Parliament announced that the military actions against the underground passage did make her a little worried. Once the underground passage is proved to be safer than the sea, the maritime trade will shrink a lot.
It will even weaken the influence of all aspects brought by the shipbuilding industry in his own territory. At this time, even if Belleira no longer wants to be at home, he can't help but plan for the family.
"Mage Xia Duo, uh-Lord Xia Duo, my father gave me a caravan when I was an adult. I haven't taken care of it all these years. There are probably 5 ships left. I can let them serve you. , I just don’t know how much Lord Xia Duo can pay?"
When Xia Duo heard it, he didn't answer immediately, but seriously considered it.
The only risk in the sea route is actually in a section of the fjord near the dwarf city of Asker. The wind is high and the waves are swift, and even sea monsters are infested. Boats often take great risks.
Although the underground passage connects Danzo and Netheril, the starting point of Netheril is not in Seventon. If you want to go, land can be used, but it is not as convenient as sea.
Even if everyone uses underground tunnels in the future, ships will still be used in the past.
Belera wanted to stop the chamber of commerce for his use. Although it may not necessarily stop the chamber of commerce, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble to transform the caravan and completely abandon the sea route and go all over land.
Although he will pay the employment costs, it is not necessarily comparable to the losses caused by the troubles. This is clearly a favor. Xia Duo thought about it, and finally did not refuse, but he still proposed to increase the employment costs.
"Master Bellera, I am willing to hire your fleet at twice the market price. In addition, I would also like to ask you to help contact the free fleet in Seventon. Within this year, the more the better!"
Humans are social creatures. No matter how powerful people are, unless emotions are completely eliminated, there will always be likes and dislikes, joys and angers, love and hatred, and sentimental hatreds, and this interweaves a complex interpersonal society. Exempt.
However, Bellera refused the double salary of Xia Duo. She said,
I am trying to transform the chamber of commerce and open up land business for the family. If it weren’t for those crew members who worked for me for many years and paid a lot, I They all want to sell the fleet directly. Now let them run some inland waterway shipping as a reward for them. You don’t need to pay more commissions for this.
"As for contacting other fleets as you said, I can only talk about doing my best."
Since the other party said so, Xia Duo didn't insist anymore. It would be good to pay less. "Then thank you Mage Belera."
After that, the two chatted for a few more words, and Bellera left with an excuse.
There were only two people in the reception room, Xia Duo and Niya. Seeing Niya pursing her mouth, as if she wanted to say nothing, Xia Duojian asked, "What's wrong? It seems like you have something to tell me. , Just say it if you want!"
"Uh-" Niya stroked her hair, looked at Xia Duo, her eyes were a little dodging, "I just thought about it, this should not be kept from you, when you didn't come just now, Belleira and I After talking for a while, I have promised to help her contact Connefela City.
"Although Hibodenling is famous for being good at shipbuilding, their specialty is actually a spice that can relieve fatigue from casting spells. In the past, they were shipped to Asker and sold to the Yerlan elves. Now they want to expand the Komanso side. Trade now."
"..."
Xia Duo wanted to roll his eyes, he knew that there would be no pie falling from nature for no reason, and it happened to hit him on the head~EbookFREE.me~ even because of Niya's identity, it is impossible to rely on it for nothing. Give it.
It turned out to be waiting for him here!
If Niya discussed with him in advance, he could actually ask for more, because the fleet can be found everywhere, especially since he has become an arcanist, a member of the ruling class of Netheril.
He came forward personally, so that he would not find a fleet, but it was not as convenient as passing Bellera.
But if there is no help from Savill, Hiboden's spices may not be able to enter the Comanso market, at least it will be uncomfortable to get you at the port of Savile.
Of course, in reality, it is impossible for Savills to take advantage of his superior position to catch others.
But in general, both parties can benefit from this transaction.
Belleira made up his mind to try the underground channel trade route, and at the same time got the channel from Comanso.
For Chateau’s side, he got the fleet, and even the Savile, who seemed to get no benefit, as a distributor, can actually use the spice from Hiboden to increase his influence.
In addition, this transaction itself has also increased the connection between the southern border and the mainland, and the future interests will be more involved, and it may develop into an ally.
In fact, they belong to the Giles Tower camp, and they are natural allies themselves, but the relationship is far and near.
...
After comforting Niya, Xia Duo asked to leave, "After the communication tool is contacted, I will return to the boat first."
"So urgent?"
"There are so many new people, I feel a little worried."
"OK then."
Saying goodbye to Niya, Chateau added some food at Giles Tower, and then left Giles Tower.
