Chapter 283. Exchange Value of Golden Eagle (3rd Update)
> Z $ t Y{8*r j ~tpB4 ऎ X nB "q Ӟ + h_ The situation seems calm, but it is extremely dangerous.
It is like a sea full of rapids and dark tides, the savings before the storm, and anyone who is not careful will fall into this sea of infinite terror in the abyss and be torn to pieces.
In the Lion Principality, the top nobles began to sharpen their knives and prepare for a delicious meal.
The lower nobles also showed their fangs and claws, trying to get a piece of the pie.
The profits are too great.
So big that even the top aristocratic families could not enjoy this delicious meal alone, and they had to compromise and cooperate with each other to feast on the delicious food that was close at hand.
Everyone is satisfied.
Including those businessmen who are just running errands, they can eat a lot of food according to their own volume.
But Kant is not included.
He is the party directly injured by his interests.
Everyone was staring at him viciously, and they could pounce on him at any moment.
And Kant also had a hunch that this time was coming.
The entire "Drehem" castle has been put on second-level alert, and the surrounding sand dunes are surrounded by desert bandits on horseback at all times, patrolling 24 hours a day.
All of Vecchia's archers were stationed at the city walls, and they no longer rested in the barracks dormitories.
There are also knights who are ready to attack at any time.
They are always on standby in order to deal with the danger that is coming at any time.
Fatis and Kant had already talked deeply, and for the next danger, they should be cautious, take the lead in attacking when they encounter the enemy, use the desert to drag down the enemy army, and then use the excellent fortifications to make the enemy's troops fall into despair and can only retreat.
After all, the current sentry oasis is still in the blockade stage, and those nobles of the Lion Principality would never have imagined that such a strong and magnificent castle had appeared on the oasis, and the city defense system was perfect and strict.
Without siege weapons, it is doomed to be in vain, and there is simply no way to storm it!
Not to mention according to Kant's memory.
Even if it is a lion principality, such a city defense will also have to pay a huge price to overcome.
Now located in the Narun Desert, the environment is cruel, there is a lack of water and logistical supplies, and there is no siege equipment, so you can't besiege it for a long time, except for retreating, you can only retreat, unless you are stupid enough to exhaust it in vain and lead to the annihilation of the whole army!
But those nobles with evil intentions don't know.
They are so naïve that they don't know anything.
Kant had perfectly concealed his fangs and claws, curled up like a kitten.
But when he fully stretches out, everyone will be horrified.
An adult lion appeared in front of him, and with its well-proportioned body, sharp fangs and sharp claws, officially announced whose territory this once desolate and untouched Narun Desert is now!
A true male lion can only grow up in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
They are Kant's stepping stones.
It's just that this cruel truth hasn't been discovered yet.
Kant did not choose to go to the depths of the desert at this critical moment, but stayed in the sentry oasis to inspect his territory, and at the same time chose architecture to build his castle more perfectly.
For example, more high-end houses are built in all corners and crevices.
Almost close to residential and handicraft areas, as well as in military areas, gaps were found.
Another 200 houses were built.
All 300 two-storey bungalow-like high-end houses fill the interior of the castle, and there are no gaps for more buildings to be built, but the advantage is a large population!
The population of Drehem Castle has swelled to 3,000 people.
A lot of food is consumed every day.
The output of the agricultural area alone was no longer sufficient, and now all the previous stocks were consumed, and a large amount of grain had to be purchased from the Zhivadine caravans to barely feed and drink the thousands of people.
Do not forget, there are also troops of almost 700 people!
In order to ensure the supply of food, Kant deliberately formed a camel team of 20 camels.
Exclusively for food transportation.
All the prey obtained from the wild hunting in the Sanwaya Mountains was made into bacon and air-dried meat, and then transported by this group of camel caravans to the sentry oasis to increase the consumption of meat and reduce the consumption of grain.
Eating only bread makes you hungry quickly, and having meat not only strengthens the body, but also reduces grain consumption.
It's a double win.
But there is no need to worry too much about food.
Kant had built a salt mine station at the top of the sand dunes at the salt mine, and sent 50 farmers to collect coarse salt, and every two days a caravan of 50 dromedaries would come to transport it, transporting 600 bags of coarse salt collected in two days back to the castle, and then boiling it into 400 bags of fine white salt in three days.
Finally, a caravan of 50 camels was transported to the central post station for sale in two days, and the first wave of harvest would be a large amount of silver coins, and the next wave would be all kinds of supplies.
Iron tools, farm tools, grain, cloth, and everything was purchased, including precious spices.
And the precious Golden Eagle!
Manid has already found out that 100 large silver coins can be exchanged for 1 Golden Eagle.
But this price is just a regular price.
On the black market of the Duchy of Lion, 120 large silver coins have already been speculated to exchange for 1 Golden Eagle.
This is also due to the fact that the Lion Principality has developed agriculture and handicrafts, so the economy is prosperous, and if it is a barren place, the price of 1 Golden Eagle will often be higher than 150 large silver coins.
For example, in the barren Northern Commandery, the price of 1 Golden Eagle is 150 large silver coins.
If you want to redeem, it depends on the relationship.
Only Viscount Wayne, who rules the entire Northern County Territory, has the ability to exchange.
The Golden Eagle is really precious.
It is said that the mysterious mage tower will collect golden eagles, even the temple of the gods is no exception, it can be seen that the golden eagle is a precious material, compared to the size of silver coins made of silver, these are cast in gold into the size of a palm, the golden eagle falcon appearance, the value is higher, and the audience is wider.
Of course, Manid also took advantage of his relationship with Baron Dylan at that time, and exchanged 200 large silver coins for 1 golden eagle in his hand, and in Kant's system exchange, he actually obtained a price of 1,000 dinars.
It was a bonus!
Kant did not expect that the price of this kind of gold would be so high.
It's worth a lot more than just selling gold.
After all, 1 bag of gold only sells for 50,000 dinars, if it is a golden eagle of equal weight, there must be more than 50 in 1 bag, and it is estimated that there are at least 100+ quantities, which represents 100,000 dinars!
Just this week, Kant was preparing for the future.
He was going to go to the salt trade himself.
After all, this is the first time that the central post station has opened up for trade!
PS:, the limit is free, and I'm suddenly confused, and I'm losing a lot... I knew that I had to update it if I stayed up late yesterday, forget it, today 5 more will be 5 more...
