Chapter 220: gauze

Edric is very busy. Although he rarely appears above the city walls these days, he is an indispensable command on another battlefield.
Collecting materials, stabilizing the situation in the city, and solving the worries of the soldiers on the wall, it can be said that all the logistical guarantees were all placed on him, the master of the city.
In just a few days, Eric's weight was reduced by excessive labor.
The fat man, who was nearly two hundred pounds in weight, has lost a lot of weight now, and it continues to decline.
Edric is very depressed. Although he has always wanted to lose weight, now he can't wait for a few pounds of fat on his body. In that case, maybe he can support it for a few more days.
The blisters on the lips had already ulcerated, and now, without even saying a word, Eric felt painful, but he couldn't help but say.
For this reason, the decoration of a room in the city's mansion has been changed several times, which is worthy of regaining the normality of the city-owner who has lost weight suddenly.
"What happened to the supplies, what did the businessmen say?"
"Return to Master." The steward took out a small book at the appropriate time, which recorded all the issues that Edridge was concerned about: "The grain bank's grain has been shipped to the warehouse, and the medicinal materials have been raised for hundreds of cars, but it is lacking gauze."
"Gauze?" Edric frowned, because gauze was undoubtedly the most important of the scarce supplies.
How many wounded soldiers are waiting for it to help, if there is no gauze, once the wounded and bleeding, soldiers want to bandage will become a problem.
"Master, the City of Radiance has not experienced war for too long, so the major chambers of commerce have no habit of hoarding gauze." After seeing Edric frowning, the housekeeper could not help but explain.
In fact, Eric did not know why.
After all, although gauze is widely used to bandage wounds, each city will have some to prepare for occasional needs, but the amount of consumption in ordinary cities is very small, and the business people are pursuing benefits of urine. If they prepare a large number of early Gauze, that's an abnormal thing.
However, despite the reason, the problem is still in front of us and must be solved, otherwise, once the soldiers lack treatment, the combat effectiveness will be greatly damaged, and when the defense of the entire city, there will be huge hidden dangers.
"Go to a cloth dealer and buy all the cloth in their hands to serve as gauze."
Although ordinary cloth is definitely not as good as gauze, and it is also very wasteful to do so, to this day, Edric can't take care of it.
Is it better than nothing?
The steward nodded and said he understood, but immediately, his face was embarrassed. The reason was simple. Buying fabrics required a lot of gold coins, but now the city's main government has no money.
"Let them keep accounts!" Edrich smiled bitterly as he said it.
What are the virtues of the blood-sucking merchants, he is normal.
If it is in peacetime, the City of Radiance wants cloths, and those businessmen who have become inflamed in order to get on the line of the city's main government, let alone credit, it is not impossible to give away.
But now, the army of the Turin Kingdom is outside, and the city of Radiance is in danger of falling at any time. In the eyes of a businessman, perhaps the Lord of this city has long lost the value of investment, so if you ca n’t see the real money, They definitely won't buy it.
"Come out of my private library." As Edridge said this, his heart was shaking.
Although he is the city owner, the finances of the city owner's house are separate from his own, and the private treasury can be said to be Edric's private house money.
The Lord of the City has been a man for so many years. On weekdays, he couldn't find a way to move money from the account of the City of Mansion to his private treasury. Now it is the first time that the private treasury has been used to make up for public accounts.
"Remember, every penny spent is recorded in the accounts, even if it is borrowed by the Lord, and after the war is over, you must find an empire to compensate."
In order to give his wounded heart a little comfort, Edric instructed the housekeeper to raise the gold coins spent a little bit.
Well, it's just a few, but it's only doubled. Compared with those unscrupulous traitors who are robbed by fire, Edric is very kind.
As the saying goes, having money can make the ghosts grind. As long as the price of the dismissal is reasonable, the merchants can see Jin Chanchan's gold coins, and there is no reason to refrain from doing business.
Soon, a large number of cloths were continuously pulled into the city's main house by horse-drawn carriages, and soon piled up as high as a hill.
"Send it to the front line immediately. Luke's guy has sent someone to urge you just now."
Even because of the relationship between the Turin kingdom outside the city, Edric and Luke are in a peculiar cooperative relationship. The former is responsible for logistical supplies and stabilizes the rear. The latter is responsible for defending the city walls and resisting the enemy's attack.
But cooperation does not mean that the relationship between the two will become harmonious, at least for Edric.
No one likes to be decentralized, even if the situation forces them to be forced, so from the beginning, Edric and Luke were doomed to be full of contradictions.
Fortunately, Edric's brain has not been confused. He knows that this situation is not the time for internal fighting anyway, so he still maintains considerable restraint, and strives to do a good job of logistical work to maintain a surface of peace.
But since it is superficial, and now the other party is not in front of him, Eric's tone is naturally not too good.
The housekeeper naturally knew what he was thinking in the heart of the Lord of the City ~ EbookFREE.me ~ without breaking the word, and took the cloth to the front.
Luke repelled Turin's offensive again, but this time, he felt something was wrong.
Although the kingdom of Turin retreated, the city was covered with their leftover corpses, but these injured people were all soldiers surrendered by the Greek Empire, and the strength of the Turin kingdom itself was not damaged. In this case, Turin Why did the Kingdom choose to retreat?
All this reveals a bit of weirdness, which makes Luke feel a little uneasy, but now he can't see what the other party is planning, so he can only keep the soldiers alert and prevent the other party from counterattacking.
Just then, the steward came with the team.
Luke descended from the wall and received the supplies in person.
If the potential conspiracy of the Turin Kingdom is worrying, then the problem of gauze is urgently needed to be solved.
After a great battle, although the City of Radiance achieved good results and repelled the Turin kingdom's offensive, it was equally damaged, and hundreds of injuries were waiting for treatment.
After counting the numbers, Luke signed the supplies and let people distribute them quickly. Soon, the gauze vacancy was filled and the wounded soldiers could continue to receive treatment.
But what Luke didn't expect was that the uneasiness in his heart did not originate outside the city, but the cloths that had just been delivered.
