Chapter 27 Transaction

   The change in Cario's expression Bruno was watching, and he naturally understood what Cario was thinking of.

   But it's no wonder, because the Idar collar is really close to the Kingdom of Basel, and there is only a Mann fortress blocking it.

   "It's just... I don't know how much sugar you can sell me?"

   "Maybe the quantity is relatively small this time, I can only give you twenty catties first." Bruno said.

   It's not that Bruno doesn't want to produce more sugar, but because Idalling has only so many ready-made beets. Although he has ordered people to go out to purchase, it is not so fast to be able to ship it back.

   "Twenty catties?!"

   Cario was shocked, you know, the market price of a pound of sugar is generally not less than ten gold coins! It is much higher than the price of table salt! It is a luxury that can only be enjoyed by aristocrats!

   In the more remote northern part of the empire, the price of a pound of sugar can even reach 20 gold coins, and it is not impossible to even sell 25 gold coins!

   You know, an ordinary civilian family in the Norman Empire only spends only three gold coins a year.

   The price of a pound of sugar can already match the sum of the annual income of several civilian families.

   "Can I... take a look at the real thing?" Cario said in a trembling voice.

"sure."

   After that, he ordered Liszt to put on a tray, which contained about a pound of sugar.

   Cario carefully dipped it with his hand, and almost immediately after the entrance, a trace of sweetness lingered on the tip of his tongue.

   "It's so sweet...this is the best sugar!" Cario exclaimed.

   "Fifteen gold coins, Sir Bruno, I am willing to buy these sugar at the price of fifteen gold coins per catty."

"make a deal."

In Bruno’s view, Cario’s price is already very high. After all, the fifteen gold coins are almost the same as the market price of sugar in most areas, not to mention the transportation costs and various Miscellaneous expenses can even be regarded as a loss.

   For Cario, the young earl has to be good no matter what, if he can continue to obtain a steady supply of goods in Idal in the future, then his business will be guaranteed.

   "Mr. Cario, I want to ask you some information." Bruno asked after the deal was concluded.

   "Just ask, the villain must know everything." Cario said quickly.

   "Do you know, where can I find a better engraver?"

   "Master of carving?"

"Yes, it is a master carving statue or carving pattern on a stone pillar. You also know that the eastern part of the empire is remote and desolate, and the traffic conditions are inconvenient. It is difficult to find a skilled carving master. "

   "Speaking of master engravers, the villain happens to know one."

   "Oh? Come and listen." Bruno asked quickly.

You know, he basically lacks everything in the construction of the sky garden. The only thing missing is the master sculptor who is responsible for carving statues or patterns. Although the masons in the territory can barely do it, they work with specialized master sculptors. Far from it.

   The system is rewarded based on the magnificence of the spectacle, Bruno doesn't want to lose the chain on such small details.

"A few days ago, when I was preparing to pass through Stranglethorn Vale, I happened to meet Master Andy from the Kingdom of Basel. He was invited by a great nobleman to sculpt the stone statue, but I didn’t expect to wait for him to get there. , The great nobleman passed away, and only then was gloomy about going back to the Kingdom of Basel. Master Andy walked slower than me. I guess it's almost time to return to the Kingdom of Basel through Idar in the past few days..."

   Bruno was happy when he heard this, but he was missing a master engraver!

   "If nothing happens, the villain will leave first." Cario said.

   "See you next time, Mr. Cario." Bruno got up and said.

   After Cario left, Bruno ordered: "Liszt, get old Ford immediately, and say I have major issues to discuss with him."

   "Yes, sir." Liszt replied quickly.

  ...

   It was already afternoon when Sam Layton, the captain of the Guards, received the order from Bruno.

   After carefully reading the order on the parchment, he burned the parchment, and then rushed out of the city of Idar with dozens of guard cavalry.

   The direction they are going is Stranglethorn Vale.

  ...

   Stranglethorn Vale.

   The old master carving master Andy was lying halfway on the dangling carriage. There were seven young people walking with him, all of whom were Andy's carving apprentices.

   Because of the body of Master Andy, the carriage walks very slowly, and it can only travel more than a dozen miles in an hour.

   "Goode..."

   "Teacher, I'm here." Goode is Master Andy's favorite student and has a great talent for carving.

   "Where are you now?"

   "If you go back to the teacher, walk a few steps forward and you will exit Stranglethorn Vale. After passing through Idar, you will go south for a few days. It is the border between the Norman Empire and the Kingdom of Basel..."

   Before the words fell, I saw a feather arrow shot from a distance, firmly nailed to the carriage road.

   Everyone was shocked, only to realize that the road ahead was blocked by dozens of cavalry. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

   "Don't panic..." Although Andy was surprised, but after all, he has lived for most of his life, and he is not as panicked as his apprentices.

   "Is that Master Andy here?"

   I saw the head of the cavalry standing in the way and said loudly.

   "I am." Andy responded.

   This line of cavalry is the personal guard sent by Bruno. According to Bruno’s instructions, Master Andy must be "invited" to Idar in any case...

   I saw Sam Layton shouting loudly: "We are...Earl Sauron's guard! Our Lord wants to invite Master Andy to be a guest, and I hope Master Andy will not refuse..."

   "Earl Sauron?" Andy asked questioningly toward the apprentice Goode beside him: "Who is Earl Sauron? Have we passed through Earl Sauron's territory?"

   At this time, Goode was also at a loss: "Earl Sauron's territory should be north of Idar, how come here..."

   "Don't guess randomly. I said it was the guard of Earl Sauron, or the guard of the real Earl Sauron. It has nothing to do with Bruno-sama of Idaln..." Sam Layton said.

   Andy and Good looked at each other, how do they feel... This guard’s head is a bit uncomfortable...

   Isn't this not a confession?

   "Hey! Will you follow me, if you don't follow me, I will kill you!" Sam threatened.

   "Teacher?" Good looked at Andy, his eyes revealing the meaning of inquiry.

   "This guy's head doesn't seem to work well, let's follow him first, otherwise he might really leave us here..." Andy said helplessly.

   "Let's follow you..." Andy said helplessly towards Sam.
