Chapter 30: trade
"Cough cough... A long time ago, all knight orders other than the Lion Knights were declared illegal in the Kingdom of the Lion King," Captain Moore said weakly, "but many people don't know that among them, there is also a The Knights escaped.
That is the Knights of the Rose. "
"Ah?" Hearing this, Leo was even more at a loss. Since Captain Moore said that the Knights of the Roses escaped, why did he not hear any news? This is the Knights of the Lion Kingdom.
"The Knights of the Roses, originally founded by Earl Rice of Cliff Rock Bay, our symbol is a white rose on a green background, and it was also extremely powerful back then.
It's just that after the death of Earl Rice, his successor may have foreseen that the Kingdom of the Lions would oppress other knights, and turned the Knights of the Roses into an academic organization. Since then, the knights have become the Lions. This is a social place where the nobles drink and have fun, and that's where your great-grandfather and I got to know each other. "Captain Moore said with a nostalgic look.
Oh, it's just that we drank wine together and voted for women to win.
"You said that the bright side turned to an academic organization, then?" Leo didn't get the wrong point, and asked with a frown again.
"Yes, the real background of the Knights has changed from light to dark, and the reputation of the former glory has disappeared," Captain Moore said lightly, "while the real strength of the Knights is hidden, and your great-grandfather and I were the same. There, he was spotted by the captain at the time and joined the Knights.
That is, in the auditorium of the Knights, there are already many noble children holding wine in their hands, debating and scolding. It is precisely for this reason that in the catastrophe that year, the Rose Knights were considered harmless to the kingdom because those playboys were harmless. can survive. "
"But right now, there doesn't seem to be any news of him," Leo said in confusion.
"Indeed, what a character Ulrike is. After rebuilding the Lion Knights, the situation of the Rose Knights is becoming more and more dangerous. No matter how hard they hide their strengths and bide their time, they still enter the vision of the top officials of the kingdom." He said, "In the end, the Knights of the Roses will inevitably be disbanded.
I didn't want to join the notorious Lion Knights, so I came here and became a member of the Knights of the Call of the Horns, while your great-grandfather went back to inherit the family business and became the Baron of Archimonde. "
Leo was stunned. He never imagined that there is such a tortuous history?
"Although the Rose Knights are disbanded, they are still scattered in various taverns, dance halls and other dark places. They still have huge forces. If you want to restore the glory of your ancestors, they may be able to give you a lot of help." Captain Moore He coughed lightly.
Very tempting, Leo couldn't help thinking, after all, after so many years, the Knights of the Roses can still survive to this day, and the strength within them should not be too small for him.
But immediately, Leo's eyes became clear again. The main reason for the disbandment of the Knights of the Roses was the pressure from the top officials of the kingdom. Does that mean that if he really took over, he would be attacked by the top officials of the kingdom?
Unless this news is never leaked out, he will be in trouble at that time. He is not Captain Moore, and his body is not that hard, and he can withstand the pressure from the top of the kingdom.
"This ring of roses will be placed with you first." Captain Moore took out a ring of green shadows, which was very delicate, and was also marked with white rose blooms.
But this green... this green makes Leo a little awkward.
"I can see that you have no plans to make a decision now. The Ring of Roses is temporarily placed with you for safekeeping," said Captain Moore, "The Ring of Roses has other secrets, you may try to explore them. Okay, I'm going to rest.
In the future, if you really have no interest in the Knights of the Roses, you can return him to me. "
Seeing this scene, Leo's heart moved slightly, but he agreed.
……
"You said you could help me with those armors?" Leo frowned slightly, looking at the young man in front of him. The other party was only in his early twenties. Should have a good background.
"That's right, Baron Leo, let me introduce myself. I'm going to be Kevin Alama, a court baron." Baron Kevin said politely.
"It turned out to be Baron Kevin," Leo's eyes changed, with a bit of solemnity on his face, he had naturally heard of the other party, or from Achle's mouth.
If I remember correctly, the rebellion of the Hull Knight may have a strong connection with him, but the other party came to the door this time and said that he could help solve the problem of those armors?
Leo is not surprised that the other party knows about this matter. Governor Wilt was born in the Alama family, and so is Baron Kevin. It is normal for the two sides to have contact, but why is he kindly trying to help him this time?
"I know Leo, you may have misunderstood me," Baron Kevin saw Leo's doubts, and his usual smile appeared on his face, "but those are all in the past, I believe that our cooperation will make us It was a pleasure getting along.”
Leo blinked, "I am quite a vengeful person, especially some of your actions, Baron, which may have deeply hurt my heart.
"Our cooperation can give you a lot of convenience, and the Alama family has a good influence in many places.
And for your batch of armors, I can find a way to get you 10% of the normal price," Baron Kevin stared at Leo in front of him, with a determined look, "We can also work together to do it. Salt business. "
"Ahem, Baron Kevin, you may not know me well, I'm a little bit more..." Leo coughed twice, suppressing his pounding heart.
"Besides, if you and I can join forces, let alone the entire Great River City, even in the middle of the kingdom, my Alama family still has a huge influence. With my joining, you can even do business in the north." Baron Kevin said with a bewitched face, "We can completely divide it into 50-50. This is a happy situation for all."
this……
Leo's heart pounded for a while, "Okay, Baron Kevin, your proposal is very tempting, but five or five won't do, at least thirty-seven."
"Oh, are you saying that you are three and seven? It's not too embarrassing," Baron Kevin said with a blushing face, very ashamed.
"Hehehe..." Leo stared at Baron Kevin in front of him, "I'm three and you're seven."
"That won't do," Baron Kevin also raised his head and looked at Leo in front of him, "Baron Leo, you must know that my Alama family has a huge sales channel, and these are extremely important. , and transporting such a long distance, manpower and material resources are also no trivial matter."
"Baron Kevin, you are not the head of the Alama family," Leo said with a chuckle, "You have very limited channels, so..."
"Then six or four, you six and I four." Baron Kevin said through gritted teeth.
"Deal!" Leo looked at Baron Kevin with an abrupt smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Well, it's a deal!" Baron Kevin also had a somewhat conspiratorial smile on his face, obviously, it was above his psychological bottom line.
Both sides showed similar smiles, but Leo's heart bulged slightly, "It's sloppy."
"Baron Leo, I have already greeted them at the logistics office. You can take this to the Thirteenth Office." Baron Kevin smiled and put down a wool note with a few faint handwriting on it. Then he raised Bai Nen's palm, "Then, happy cooperation?"
"Happy cooperation." Now that the negotiation has been concluded, it is impossible to give no face at all. Leo happily tapped three times with Baron Kevin, which was considered a pleasure to celebrate the cooperation.
However, there is nothing to say. Indeed, the current strength of the Archimonde Baron is incapable of radiating too far, and the profit is simply a petty profit. If you can catch the giant ship of the Alama family, the business can be further expanded. The human and material resources are also great.
In the future, the bulk of these expenditures will mainly depend on this Baron Kevin. For me, it is not considered that he suffers too much.
What's more, although the profit of refined salt is huge, it is not too exaggerated. It is time to take out his second tool for making money.
"By the way, good brother Kevin, besides those armors, don't you plan to add something else? Like their swords, or something else?" Leo said with a smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Cough cough..." Baron Kevin coughed a few times as if he was choking, "Brother Leo, that Ms. Longsi from the Thirteenth Office is the biological daughter of Governor Wirth.
Therefore, it is not so easy to get things out of the thirteenth office. I have spent a lot of effort this time to let you get those armors at a low price. As for the other ones, then Sorry I can't help. "
"This Baron Kevin is a bit interesting," Leo called Achle after Baron Kevin left, frowned and said, "What else do you know?"
"Ah?" Achle was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized what Leo was talking about, and hurriedly replied, "He is the sixth son of Duke Alama, but his mother is also the daughter of a powerful marquis, so Baron Kevin is in The Alama family is also considered a small status.
There are rumors that he may also become the heir to the Alama family. "
It seems that he has other ideas for such a gesture of goodwill. Leo also realized something, chuckled and shook his head, not thinking about it any more.
……
Looking at the thick armors that were constantly being taken out by the soldiers on one side, Leo's mouth also had a slight smile? Seems like you can open a garbage can?
Ah, no, the words seem to be inaccurate. Anyway, they are dedicated to recycling these armored weapons that others do not need, etc...
After all, the consumption and loss of the refurbishment is too great, which will cause the value of these spoils to drop significantly. However, Leo, who owns the furnace of heaven and earth, after the furnace is sealed, everything in it is conserved, only the furnace The energy value of the fire is the problem.
He can easily change the composition of the battle armor, rebuild those heretical battle armors, and make another type of battle armor he needs at a very small price, which is simply a huge profit!
There is such a factor in being able to promise Baron Kevin. With the help of someone from the Alama family, many things will be much easier.
