Chapter 116: Intervention in Western Trade, Construction of New Trade Routes

When Thor learned that there was a large iron mine and a place where Nau was produced in the entire territory, he had some ideas in his heart.

Compared with the east and north, the west is undoubtedly more prosperous, with more noble lords and pioneering lords. The construction of the trade route can only be truly completed and bring greater benefits if it can be involved in the west.

But before, he didn't have any good opportunities.

He is not a western lord.

Rash insertion is likely to cause various problems.

He had to give up this idea.

But when Tono appeared, everything was different.

Compared with him, Tono was an old pioneer lord in the west. It would be much smoother to insert Tono into the entire western trade route.

There would not be too many problems.

As long as he could get involved in the western trade, the benefits of the entire trade route would undoubtedly be extremely huge.

Without considering other things, the benefits of black iron armor and brass armor alone can reach a terrifying value.

Not to mention the silver armor and the low-level life potion that is likely to be successfully configured later.

And not only is there income, but inserting into Tono as an opportunity is also enough to help his brother's territory develop further.

Although it was only a short time of contact, Thor has already felt that the development of his brother's territory has actually reached a certain bottleneck.

Unlike the east, the entire Maine Valley in the east, even if there were only more than 20 pioneer lords and noble lords before, but the entire Danube is full of hundreds of pioneer lords, and this is only near the Danube, and there are more pioneer lords in other places.

In this case, wanting to develop is undoubtedly in a very passive position.

If the sheep-headed people had not destroyed this tribe this time, Tono might not have had the opportunity to develop out.

The construction of the trade route can also slightly solve Tono's problem.

Of course, he thought so, but it still depends on the ideas of Tono and Babrus.

If these two have no ideas, Thor will not force it.

At present, there is no urgent thought about whether to insert into the west.

After all, he has not yet completely digested the territories of the lords who have been pioneering in the entire Maine Valley.

The road can be taken slowly, and the future can be planned slowly, and there is no need to rush.

After the words fell, Thor looked at the two people, waiting for their answers.

And Tono and Babrus could not help but fall into deep thought.

The two are not fools.

Naturally, they can understand the meaning of Thor's words.

But this is not something that is easy to promise.

Selling, this is not a simple selling.

In the entire West, the only ones who really control the trade routes are the top noble lords. If you step in rashly, you will inevitably have some conflicts with several top nobles.

If you don't do it well, there will be big problems.

But Thor's words can't help but make them a little tempted.

Once the trade route is built, relying on silver armor and various weapons and equipment, their income may be expanded tenfold or even more.

Ten times, that's ten times the profit.

Not only can the number of knights in their territory be further increased, but they will also have a greater chance of breaking through the earth knights in the future.

"Huh!"

After a long time, Tono and Babrus looked at each other, and Tono took a long breath.

"Thor, you may not know that the trade routes in the west are mainly controlled by the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce and the two noble lords Spencer and Campbell."

"They will also produce some silver armor. If we rush in, I'm afraid!"

The words slowly came out, and Tono's expression was solemn.

"I know, but I don't need to compete with them."

"As far as I know, the two noble lords established the trade route based on the auction model of Loren City, and regularly held auctions in their territories to attract the pioneering lords in the west. We don't need this."

Thor shook his head, and then slowly told his plan and ideas.

As for the method, it is naturally the trade route construction model carried out by Lajos in the east.

Compared with the auction model, this kind of wandering merchant is more suitable for pioneering lords.

After all, no one can guarantee whether they will encounter a crisis after leaving the territory, nor can they be sure whether the territory will be attacked after leaving.

Not every lord is willing to leave.

In contrast, although bringing goods to the territory will increase the risk, as long as there is enough strength, it is enough to avoid the risk, and the price can be raised again.

Especially the west is much richer than the east.

It can be expected that the gold coins that can be obtained will only be more.

And listening to his words, both Tono and Babrus' eyes lit up.

"My brother, you are simply a genius!"

"That's right!"

Tono's voice sounded with excitement, his eyes were shining.

"Indeed, Lord Thor, you are indeed a genius!"

Babrus also sighed and spoke.

Don't look at only a little change.

But the two know how big the change will be brought about by this change.

There will be many benefits.

As long as there are enough pioneering lords, it can be expected that the next harvest will be endless.

The rich products in the west also mean that each pioneering lord has a lot of resources.

Even if some of these resources are gathered in Loren City, there are still many left in the major territories. Being able to build a good trade route means that there is a chance to use these resources.

Especially with the silver armor as the key to knock on the door, the situation will be smoother.

There won't even be too many problems.

"Brother, Lord Babrus, we can set up a chamber of commerce, with our three parties contributing funds and sending knights to escort. If we want to distribute, how about we divide it equally among the three of us?"

Looking at the excited three people, Thor couldn't help but show a touch of joy on his face, and then he spoke.

"Lord Thor, you are too serious!"

"This is the plan you thought of. It's too much to divide it equally. Just give me 5%. I am willing to send a great knight, two formal knights, and ten apprentice knights."

After hearing Thor's words, Babrus hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head and spoke seriously.

"Yes, brother, this is your plan. I can't let you suffer. I will take 5%. Without you, we can only sell ore, and we may not be able to take over this territory!"

"As for the strength of the caravan, I will also provide a great knight, ten formal knights, and thirty apprentice knights."

Tono also smiled and said.

The two of them are not the ones who take advantage.

The previous results have made them very embarrassed, and it is naturally impossible to share equally at this moment.

In the end, it was Thor's strong request.

The two agreed that one person would take 12% and the other would take 15%, while Thor took 65% and Lajos Asad took 8%.

Thor naturally would not forget the place where his man helped him build a new trade route.

After all, he still needs to rely on this man to open up the trade route in the west.

Lajos Asad took 8%, and Tono and Babrus did not object after Thor explained the situation.

The only problem is that when Tono heard Lajos's surname, his expression was a little strange.

Of course, it was just some anomalies.

This territory was not obtained from the descendants of the Assad family, but from the sheep-headed people. Even if the contemporary earl of Assad came, he would have nothing to say.

And since Thor asked this person to manage the trade route, there must be no problem.

In fact, it is true.

Although they are both descendants of the Assad family, Lajos has no good feelings for his brothers and sisters.

Naturally, he would not care about these.

When he learned that Thor was going to set up a chamber of commerce and intervene in the entire west, he could not help but show a touch of joy on his face.

Even if the proportion was diluted a lot, he was still excited.

Lajos has been in the Northland Province for a long time. He naturally knows that the prosperity of the West is not comparable to that of the East and the North.

Even if it is diluted, the 8% profit is much greater than before.

More importantly, during this period of time, his contact with Thor has made him see an infinite future.

Even if there is nothing, he is willing to follow.

Not to mention that there is an 8% share.

So on the third day after arriving, Lajos Assad began to take action.

Thor, Tono, and Babrus began to discuss the distribution of other matters in the entire territory.

They had promised that all the output of Nau in three years would belong to Thor, even if the output changed from one place to two places, but the two had no intention of changing their minds and still decided to give all the output of Nau in these three years to Thor.

As for the large iron ore and copper mines, Thor arranged people to mine them.

As for the division of income, Thor took 40%, 30% was the distribution income, and the other 10% was the reward given by Thor for mining with goblins. Tono took 20%, and transferred 10% to Babrus as the income from giving up the output of Nau in the two places in the next three years. With Tono's 10%, Babrus also took 40%.

The materials obtained from other territories were divided equally among the three.

These were not included in the division of the Chamber of Commerce and belonged to the income of this war.

The three were very satisfied with this division.

Even Tono and Babrus felt a little embarrassed, feeling that they had taken advantage of a lot.

After all, this time, Thor and the Knights brought by Thor played a decisive role in taking this territory at a small price.

Without Thor, even if they could take it this time, the loss would be extremely huge.

However, Thor strongly requested, and they had to accept it.

As for Thor, he didn't care about these small benefits. He cared more about the construction of the western trade route.

Once completed, this would be a truly huge income.

At this moment, this distribution can not only improve the favorability, but also make his brother and Babrus understand that following him is enough to get enough gold coins.

As long as they can recognize it from the bottom of their hearts.

Next, many things will be much easier.

In fact, it is true.

After the division.

Next, whether it is the construction of the trade route or the new plan, everything went very smoothly.

Tono and Babrus almost completely obeyed Thor's arrangements.

Under Thor's arrangements, one thing after another was quickly implemented.

Even on the fifth day.

A caravan led by Lajos Assad set out first.

The newly occupied large iron and copper mines had not been mined yet, and the goblins who mined them had not been brought over yet, but the Eagle Territory already had a lot of armor, weapons, and silver armor, and Lajos Assad brought a lot this time.

It can be used as the cornerstone for opening up the trade route in the early stage.

Of course, since the western lords are more powerful, the force equipped to Lajos Assad this time is also stronger.

A total of three great knights, twenty formal knights, forty apprentice knights, and more than three hundred reserve knights were sent, and the distribution was arranged by Thor, Tono and Babrus.

Thor even let Ryan participate in it.

On the one hand, Ryan's strength is strong enough, surpassing the average great knight, and on the other hand, Ryan can also be trained with the help of trade route construction.

And such a force, even in the western territory, exceeds most of the pioneering lords, and even exceeds 99% of the lords.

The West does have a large number of powerful lords.

But Thor's previous statement about the lord of the northern province, who had more than 90% of the power, was no joke.

It was a fact.

It was just that there were so many powerful lords in the West that people had the illusion that powerful lords were everywhere.

In fact, even in the West, the proportion of pioneering lords with great knights was not large, not to mention that there were three great knights, one of whom was a great knight capable of killing a peak second-level orc.

In addition, the initial construction of the trade route did not require the presence of such a powerful lord, so there was no need to worry too much.

Facing ordinary lords, such strength could almost sweep them away.

This was not a question of whether the caravan needed to consider safety, but whether the lords facing such power should consider safety.

In this case, everything was naturally very smooth.
