Chapter 1005:   profiteering

After Lucy's loving breakfast, Allen returned to his room happily, just in time to bump into Edward who was looking for him. Edward looked at him up and down, and said lightly: "You smile like a cat in spring, look in a good mood?"

"It's more than good." Allen pushed the door open, greeted him to come in, and said: "You are not the same. You run on me early in the morning. You must have something from Gangen."

"I'm different from you, at least I'm more reserved, I won't wait to tell the world like you, you are now as happy as a flower."

Allen shook his head and said, "You don't understand. Actually, Edward, I think your black jokes are pretty good. If you don't keep your face straight all day, there are definitely a lot of women who stick to you."

"Why do I want so many women to come here? Can you eat it?" Edward said with a hand: "Okay, don't talk nonsense. Let me tell you something business. You were right. I was in Gunn. Gained."

Allen converged and said with a serious face: "Did you dig out the trading chain behind the gold wire?"

Edward shook his head and said: "How can it be so simple that restricted materials like gold wire and iron can be traded on the black market. Every joint is checked by people with a lot of history. Does it mean that you can dig it out? Well, I’m just a little boss of Warwolf. I don’t think even Joey knows so much, let alone Gunn. In fact, he only knows that after transporting the golden wire out of the dark place, it will be transported to Sa Ding, give it to a man nicknamed Blood Sickle. As far as he knows, this man seems to have something to do with the boss of a certain large chamber of commerce in Sardin. No matter how much it is, Gang En will not be clear."

"A Chamber of Commerce in Sardin City can't afford gold wire and iron, so that Chamber of Commerce should be just one of the joints of the entire trading chain. Then after the Gray Wolf Mine is taken over by us, do you think we need to find another seller? "Alan asked, the previous owner of the mine was a certain empire who secretly supported the black wolf. With him presided over, the black market transactions naturally dare not take too much advantage. It's not the same after changing them. Now that they don't have a deep background/view in the empire, it is inevitable that they will be wronged. What's more, the big man may also obstruct it, making the gold wire iron unsellable in Allen's hands.

Even, the other party can leak this news to the empire. At that time, the empire could use strategic resources as a reason to compulsorily expropriate this mine. In this way, Allen and the others would be in vain.

Therefore, if you want to keep this mine, it may be a good decision to find another seller. As long as the profits brought by the gold wire can impress other big people, then they can check and balance their opponents.

In the final analysis, it is still the word interest.

"On this point, I don't think it should be anxious." Edward said calmly: "Golden wire and iron are very profitable. I think the boss behind Wolf Warriors will not give up easily. As long as he doesn't give up, then this mine will still be a big deal for the time being. Secret. And it depends on our attitude. If we are anxious to sell gold wire, or even find another buyer. Don’t let the adult do not want this mine, but also bad our good deeds. At that time, it should be. We have headaches. Especially since we will not stay in the dark place for too long, time does not allow us to manipulate the golden wire."

"Fortunately, don't you think

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Is it better to ship back to the Federation? After all, we are not the original inhabitants of the Heavenly Star. They can only sell the gold wire to some other big figures in the empire, but we don't have to. In my opinion, the Federation is the best buyer. "

Allen slapped his head and said, "You are right. According to you, we will still mine iron ore, but we can transport the mined gold wire back to Dawning Castle for storage. When the northward journey is completed, Good luck with the gold wire iron to the earth."

"I think so too. In this way, you can drag the big man for a while. And when he finds something strange, you should be able to earn a seat in the north. Then there will be the support of the second prince. , It’s easier to deal with it. Don’t forget that there is also this north-south trade road. When we pull more aristocratic officials into the water, we won’t be as weak as we are now. By then, under the control of layers, even if it is Grand Duke of the Empire, it is not so easy to move us." Edward said with a smile.

Allen nodded: "Just do it. Later I will inform Gunn and let him resume work in the mine. You will arrange to send someone back to the Dawning Castle and ask Broy to arrange a guard to come to the Darklands. When we leave, just leave a few people connected with Broy."

"I know how to do it." Edward paused, and then said: "As for Kuroba, it's a pity. They don't have a lucrative industry like the Gray Wolf Mine, but they are still engaged in the slave trade."

"Slave trade?"

Edward nodded and said, "Well, isn't there an imperial general behind Kuroba? It seems that every once in a while, that general will send a batch of slaves to the Dark Land, and Kuroba will come forward and sell the slaves in different categories. Everywhere. I have seen the general information they sent. The slaves sent by the generals are varied. There are women slaves of foreign races, human slaves, and even captured war criminals."

Allen said "Oh", and said, "An imperial general, where is there so many slaves in his hands?"

"Obviously, the general is just an agent. He must be supported by a larger figure. You must know that although the slave trade is not as profitable as gold wire, it is also profitable. If it is a leader of the military If it works, in many cases it is even worthless business. For slaves like alien women and war criminals, I think that in the next war, you can almost make up a group of slaves."

Allen squinted his eyes and said, "It makes sense, hey, the slave traps in Babylon on the black market have to organize people and spend money to capture alien slaves everywhere. But there is no general of the Balkan Empire. The money is fast, and a group of slaves can be brought together by fighting a few wars, and there is almost no cost, and the profit will not be less."

"Imperial slaves have been repeatedly banned, especially heterosexuality/slave, which is a fashion symbol of the imperial aristocracy. So the profit of this line is not low, and there will not be only one or two generals doing this kind of business. And things like this , If I didn’t get the acquiescence of the senior military officials, I wouldn’t believe it. So behind the seemingly simple transaction, there must be a lot of people and things involved.” Edward analyzed.

Allen tweeted: "But a dark place and two thieves have involved so many characters. This human empire is really deep."

"So you have to be careful

(This chapter is not over, please turn the page) Don't drown. "Edward said a black joke very seriously.

Then he left, and as soon as his front foot left, Gurus knocked on the door and came in.

"My lord, I let the people in the workshop see your armor. I can't tell the specifics. If you can, please go to the workshop in person?" Gurus asked.

Allen's Eternal Guardian was torn apart by Joey in the big duel. Although the damaged area was limited, the location of the damage was very important. The wolf on the Evilfang Bulwark had its own weapons workshop, so Alan handed it over to Gurus to try to repair the armor. The northbound road is still far from the end point. Sometimes when the eternal protection is used, Alan is naturally reluctant to give up this solid armor that is exchanged for fourth-class military merit.

Hearing what Gurus said, he nodded, and the two went to the weapon workshop behind the temple together.

The workshop of Wolf Warriors is not big, so Gurus gave a brief introduction on the road. There are two technicians in the workshop, and there are about a dozen young men who can help. This workshop is mainly responsible for repairing some of the damaged equipment of the war wolf, but the armor stinger on Joey's body comes from one of the technicians in the workshop. That set of stinger materials is fairly particular, and the workmanship is quite satisfactory. There is no too creative design, but it is strong and practical. Only when he ran into an opponent like Allen, and also had a magic weapon like the Akagi, that armor was useless.

A thief's workshop can make armor like a poisonous thorn, which is already considered precious. Gurus said as he walked: "That guy is called Garden, and the stinger was made by him. So I gave him the adult's armor for a look..."

Before I finished speaking, there was a loud roar from the workshop in front of me: "I can't do it, I can't do it. Even if Gurus is about to pick my head off, I will say the same!"

Then a few men's persuasion sounded inside, and Allen shook his head and said, "It's just a piece of armor. There is no need to threaten his life, right?"

Gurus said awkwardly, "I'm used to speaking, and my tone is a little bit stiff."

Allen also knew that he was hard to change and said nothing, and walked into the studio with Gurus. Before entering the workshop, a hammer flew towards him. Just as Alan was about to take it, Gurus snorted and grabbed it in his hand, and said angrily: "What are you doing! Do you want to rebel?"

In the workshop, the two men were fighting together, and several young people were trying to fight each other. I don't know who threw this hammer out. If it wasn't for Gurus to catch it, the door of the workshop must be broken. Allen was not interested in the fights of those people, and he scanned them. There are two stoves, several workbenches, and a row of tool racks in this workshop. There are still broken armor and a rough sword on the wall. There is even a sketch of equipment design nailed to it, but it also looks like a workshop.

When Gurus came, the two men who had fought and separated. Inside, a middle-aged man with a short stature, blushing and thick neck, as strong as a buffalo, pushed away from others, and looked at Gurus and said: "I had a dispute with Dude, and started to fight on impulse. I moved first. Hand, if you want to kill or kill, I admit it, it has nothing to do with Du De and the others."

Gurus shook his head, Allen withdrew his gaze, looked at the middle-aged man and smiled: "I guess, this is Master Garden, right?"
