Gould describes the Russ as a place where economic materials such as leather are produced. She has a larger population and a strong military. It is entirely because the leader’s brother was killed by the Gotlanders that made the Russ alive. Has been trying to attack the Gotland people for revenge.

The story of the Ross people seems to end there.

This is how Gould tells the story. The reason is simple. The Roths are not qualified to show off their strength to their leaders. Even if the strength of the tribe is really equal to that of the Mellaren tribe, they still have to pretend to be weaker at this moment. Some signs are the best policy.

what is this? It is clear that Rurik and Gould have had some discussions. Perhaps it is more appropriate to use the concept of "hiding our powers and bidding our time against Mälaren".

In other places, the Ross people are accompanied by an unprecedented positive expansion of iron and blood, which is not available to the Mellaren people who are obviously a little aggressive and start to involute. Regarding these Goulds showing the calmness of an old businessman, it is best not to let potential rivals know these "commercial secrets".

In this regard, Olekin believed it to be true, because Gould's many pragmatic words are worthy of belief.

Gould came in the morning, and it was a long time after this talk.

Olekin's eyes widened, he listened with gusto and even forgot about hunger.

So what does this guy know?

Yes, the Ross people are really a production base for bulk commodities, and the population should not be underestimated.

Some of these products have made Olekin more interested than ever.

"They can make some of the best swords. I know this. Since they can, they should make them in large quantities. Leather is for clothes and leather armor. Soap and glass are just things for cleaning and playing. Well, I have lived without it. But the sword! I need it."

There was a strong business opportunity right in front of him, and Gould used his hoarse voice to ask for a long time: "Great leader, what do you mean."

Oleg's face was solemn, and his savage eyes seemed to burst from his eye sockets, "Give me the sword! Give me the spear! Give me the weapon of the Rus, I know you understand what I mean."

"what?"

Of course Gould understands the other party's intentions, that is, the things in it are definitely beyond his personal control.

"Why? You still don't understand what I say? Or pretending to be confused?" Olekin said straightforwardly, "I want those weapons made of hard iron, especially swords. I need a lot, every one I have A big price will be paid."

When it comes to money, Gould's mind quickly turns.

He tentatively asked: "Money? Noble leader, those Rose swords that can cut ordinary swords, every one is not cheap."

"How expensive can it be?"

Ok? Could it be that he doesn't know the price? So for this fool, is there any reason not to slaughter him? !

Gould believed that his old friend, Ryurik, would "suffer a killer in the face of such a person."

What happened to the Mellaren people? Maybe it’s not the problem of the Melaren tribe. It’s just that Olegin, who deliberately armed his private army of hundreds of people with better weapons, is in control of the mercenaries who are entirely dependent on him. The key to power.

Now this is the seller's market.

Now that we have talked about business, we are doing business. Gould didn’t know Olekin’s psychological expectations. He deliberately said: “An ordinary iron sword. Someone sells these at the market. Over the past few months, I have discovered that the Granites are selling their swords. Each sells for five silver coins. My lord, these are still not enough for you."

"Forget it! I haven't seen Ross's hard sword, but I happen to have one."

Having said that, Olekin stood up, and suddenly drew a bright sword from the clump of neatly folded leather.

A gem inlaid at the end of the hilt, oh, or a piece of stained glass. The blade is slender and the whole body is bright white.

"My lord, how did you get this sword?" Gould asked in surprise.

"What's so strange?" Olekin shrugged, "My clan is very strong, and my market is very lively. There are all kinds of people in the market, and of course there are people who sell Ross swords."

Gould closed his eyes lightly, his eyes rolled quickly for a while: "Oh, my leader, you already have a psychological price."

"Of course. I bought this sword with two pounds of silver, but it is not the best sword. I heard that the leader of the Ankras has a more exquisite sword, and it is your saber, but you use it. Two pounds of gold sold it."

Gould was a little surprised when Olekin actually inquired about the news, but after thinking about it, it was estimated that Ungriffe of Unkras must be showing off so many people knew it.

"Then, noble, wealthy and great leader, you are willing to buy a lot of hard swords of the Russ. What do you mean is that you will pay two pounds of silver for each sword?"

"Put away your set of compliments!" Olekin retracted the sword into the oak scabbard inlaid with silver. "I am indeed rich. I am not so rich as to own a golden mountain like the Gotlanders. Oh, but May the Gotlanders have."

"They do have, so the Gotland people are disgusting."

"Forget it. It's just a group of upstarts who have approached the Danes. They are traitors to our alliance. I admire anyone who attacks them, including the Rus. Let's do that."

"Yes." Gould lowered his head gently, listening carefully.

"I don't believe that the price of a hard sword made by the Ross people is two hundred silver coins. The merchant must have made a huge profit from me. Its price is definitely not low. With a hard sword, the opponent's sword will be worth it. After the branch, it must be an expensive weapon. Then, I will buy a hard sword for a pound of silver. What do you think?"

Gould's eyes trembled, and he was quite excited in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm: "Is this your pricing?"

"Why? Too little? Then tell your new master that I intend to buy a hundred hard swords. My wish is one sword and one pound of silver. As for the spearhead, I also want one for fifty silver coins of my wish. Hundreds."

"So, you intend to use 15,000 silver coins to buy these weapons?" Gould was surprised that since he equips the private army with mass-produced weapons, why use the best of each? Isn't the ordinary iron sword of five silver coins beautiful?

Olekin gritted his teeth secretly, pretending to be indifferent and continued: "If your master can provide more, I will also increase purchases as appropriate."

"Oh? How much will I ship next year, will you buy it at this price?"

"Of course! I heard that the Ross people also have a bow made of iron. It is so powerful. Tell me the price of this weapon."

Gould's strong business enthusiasm was hit hard by Olekin's remarks. He didn't understand, this guy was clearly talking about the crossbow, and he knew that it was a monster made of iron. Maybe, it's still news spread by some businessmen?

Olekin took Gould’s hesitation and trepidation for granted that this was unwilling to cooperate, and put forward his own price: “Maybe it’s very expensive, or the Russ don’t want to sell this? Don’t worry, I will use a higher price. Buy it at the price."

"Ah! This...this thing, Chief Ross may not necessarily sell it."

"Not even higher prices?"

"Ah, it needs Leader Ross to decide. I'm just a businessman, just a humble businessman working for Leader Ross."

Olekin rolled his mouth and shook his head: "You are an extraordinary businessman. You don't need to belittle yourself. Everyone knows your wealth. You are a big businessman. Do you still have to pretend now? You are indeed humble, the leader of Ross. A loyal dog of Russia, you are selling goods for the leader of the Ross. No one except your family enjoys this honor. Don’t think I don’t know, Gould of Ross. I tell you the truth, I am very good about the armament of the Ross people. Interested, I intend to buy vigorously. I want to give you a tie for Chief Ross!"

When things came to this guy, the continued cover up became utterly stupid and boring.

Guldra said with an old face: "Respected leader, I am indeed the eagle dog of leader Ross. Then, what do you want to tell my master?"

"You finally confessed yourself? That's okay. I think Chief Ross has something to tell me, Gould, I'll let you say it last. Now listen to me."

"Yes."

"Tell Otto, the leader of the Ross people, at my word. In the name of the leader, I ask them to give me the best sword and the best spear, one pound of silver for each sword, and half a pound of silver for each spear. Here is it. I have an iron bow, and I will take out two pounds of silver coins for each one."

The sword is a steel sword, and the spear is a steel spear. The so-called iron bow is a steel arm crossbow.

Gould nodded deeply, and said politely: "I will write it down, noble leader Mellaren, noble leader, I will implement it. I will give you an answer as soon as possible, I hope the answer from the Roths is satisfactory to you. ,."

"I don't need any answer from you. I have a lot of silver coins in my hand. I want to see the goods. Next spring, you only have to bring back the goods I requested, and it is more than any excuse."

"Yes!" Gould bowed fiercely.

"Then it's up to you to speak. Tell me what Chief Ross wants."

It is not so much the request of the leader as it is the request of the son of the leader. For the time being, Gould didn't want to push Rurik to the front of the stage. He was still a child after all, and he was not qualified for many things.

"Yes, noble leader. The Ross leader asked me to bring you a message. The Ross people live in a bitter cold land. They are eager to buy a lot of food to avoid starvation during the long winter. The Ross people say that they can provide a lot of food. Yes, they are the strong Mellaren people. They intend to buy in large quantities, as long as you want."

"They want food on a large scale?" Olekin subconsciously pinched his beard and thought about this Gould. Last year’s large-scale purchase of food was actually selling food to the leader of Ross. He had a powerful idea in his mind. It is possible to make money.

Do not see that Olekin deliberately purchased the excellent weapons of the Ross people as if it was not a waste. In fact, when this guy revealed his attitude, it was as if his skin was constantly being cut by a soft knife. He really hurts.

Pain returns to pain, the realistic pressure trend, Olekin must be bleeding now, so as to ensure that he can still have a solid power in the future.

What Gould guessed was Olekin's true thoughts.

This guy didn't dare to explain to himself that he needed the best weapons and equipment under his private army to make it the existence with the most extreme combat effectiveness. At the same time, the Mellaren people are also smelting iron and forging weapons by themselves, although the quality of these iron weapons is definitely not as good as the Ross people, it must be enough to arm their people with them.

Olekin's vision is that every man who can fight has at least a shield and a short spear.

In particular, he must arm a "heavy infantry" at his command.

To accomplish this, he knew that he would have to spend a lot of money, but his prestige was indeed indirectly damaged in the Rus’s crusade against the Gotland. At the same time, Ostara’s destruction was not rescued by himself, and his reputation was even more damaged. .

Isn't the threat of war more serious than reputation? He must expand his armaments and continue to maintain his power, especially to show off his power to the tribes living in the entire lake plain area, and to reserve his own power for possible future wars. Moreover, the close contact with the Rus was restarted, and Olekin, the leader of Mellaren, really intended to reunite with the Rus.

Olekin wanted to meet with Otto, the leader of Ross, and because of his status as the leader, he simply convened a leader alliance involving the entire alliance. We must strengthen commercial ties with each other, and strengthen military cooperation to counter the aggressive Danes and their servants.

The Huimeng is not the only way to talk about it.

It has been too long since the Ross people left, and the alliance relationship is almost maintained by a group of migratory bird-like merchants.

To make the Ross leader come to Mellaren happily, Olekin said that he needed to pay some price, and now an opportunity lay in front of him.

"Since the Ross people want food, I can sell most of the tribute I collect to the Ross people. What about the price of the Ross people?"

The development of the situation was completely beyond Gould’s expectation. He couldn’t help but sigh, if he could buy a huge amount of food for Rurik, he could get the cooperation of the first landlord in Mälaren. This task carried on his shoulders. Not only can it be completed smoothly, but it can also be completed in excess. Rurik has long spoken in a dialect. Regarding food, silver coins can be omitted for the sake of food. Even if the silver coins in the "big money box" are counted, they should be replaced with mountains of food.

Gould tried to suppress his excitement: "At the price of previous harvest seasons, one silver coin can buy fifteen pounds of oats."

"But this year's situation is obviously not good." Olekin responded quietly.

"Yes! I saw only a handful of wheat began to ear. The **** weather, spring came too late, and this year there will be a lot of crop failure."

"So the price will go up."

"Yes. But even so, the Ross people have to buy food, and they will be happy to pay a high price."

"Forget it, I'll give you a price, ten pounds of threshed oats and a silver coin. I can offer the Ross people half a million pounds, but I hope the Ross people have money to buy them."

"Ah?!" Gould couldn't believe what he heard for a while, "Five hundred thousand pounds? A lot of money. My lord, how do you get so much grain, especially this year's wheat will inevitably fall short."

Olekin was a little impatient, "Just leave it alone. Instead of worrying about me, worry about whether your master can take out fifty thousand silver coins in one go."

Hearing, Gould secretly scolded this guy for being truly unfamiliar, really a fish that could only swim in Lake Mälaren, and didn't dare to swim in the saltwater ocean.

But if this guy really took out 500,000 pounds of food, he would buy the wheat with all the money he had on hand.

Gould couldn't help but think of the harvest season last year. He collected a lot of cargo ships, and went straight to Roseburg carrying up to 23 pounds of harder oatmeal grains. At the same time, large quantities of vegetables and cash crops such as dried flax stalks were transported.

The wheat is heading one after another, and some vegetables have already been harvested, such as onions with a short growth period, which are already on the market.

Wheat must be purchased. In order to achieve the great dream of "the tribe can eat oats all year round" put forward by Rurik, Gould wanted to make a great contribution, even if he first paid for the food out of his own pocket.

Olekin emphasized that his attitude was that the Ross people took out 50,000 silver coins and 500,000 pounds of wheat by themselves. Even if one silver coin is missing, the whole transaction will be ruined.

Gould secretly criticized this as stupid stubbornness. However, for Olegin, he took this as a test. The Russ really paid a huge sum of money, which shows that the exchanges between the two sides have reasons for in-depth development.

But the problem is also coming. If you buy all the money for food, buy vegetables, flax, grease, wool, slaves, or even hire new mercenaries, what can you do with the money?

Gould can be said to understand ~www.novelhall.com~ Olekin wants an answer. He doesn't want to wait until next year to get the opinion of the Ross leader when he trades food in a passively delayed harvest season.

How can this be good?

What’s very bad is that Otto has asked a messenger to tell the people that his fleet will wait until Novgorod’s autumn harvest is complete. A messenger will report the matter to Gould secretly. He knows that Otto is fundamentally at this moment. Not in Roseburg.

Olekin is pressing so hard. He needs Chief Ross to show his attitude and take out the real money to buy food. This is the end of the matter, and Gould feels that this business has reached the point where it must be done.

To make matters worse, if you can't do this well, you will really separate the indifferent relationship between the Ross and Mellaren and become a sinner.

"Action must be taken! Otto is not here, it must be Rurik's decision."
