Chapter 224: Chapter 155: Foreign Campaign and Plunder Plan (5K)_3
Wilbur pulled up his horse and dismounted with an air of confidence.
His gaze swept around and finally landed on the familiar young face on the bench.
Wilbur strode over to Lynn.
His body bent slightly, his words respectful.
"Master Lynn!"
Lynn looked directly at Wilbur, smiled slightly, and said, "Mr. Boer, it’s been so ti since I last saw you on my estate!"
Raising his head, Boer showed a smile and said, "Yes, Master Lynn."
"Because the last batch of fine salt was rather large, I was uneasy about letting others sell it, only I have the sales experience and channels for fine salt."
"I had to take a few people to Kakasong City for the transaction and sale."
"Speaking of this, Master Lynn, we have leased a shop and warehouse in Kakasong City... specifically to help purchase various goods for you!"
Listening to Boer’s words, Lynn looked at him in surprise.
Boer indeed had a far-reaching vision.
This idea was ntioned to him by Lex before.
At that ti, there wasn’t a suitable candidate, and to avoid unnecessary risks, Lynn chose to abandon it directly.
Boer, however, ca up with this thod and implented it!
Kakasong City has an external comrcial wharf—Fisherman’s Wharf.
Large or heavy goods can be shipped via the Gibraltar Strait to the Karedi Empire and then dock at Fisherman’s Wharf.
Although Fisherman’s Wharf is not considered a large wharf, it can still allow so dium and small comrcial ships to dock and unload goods.
Many rchants like Grayson or Alan are willing to co here to buy inexpensive crops and transport so goods here.
Therefore.
Kakasong City has goods from all over the world.
And Boer is naturally a local trader in Kakasong City with a good rchant identity.
Even if he buys a large amount of goods in Kakasong City, it won’t attract attention from others.
It effectively provides a layer of protection for Lynn!
Lynn responded, "Mr. Boer, what goods have you brought
this ti?"
Boer still stood in place, smiling, saying, "Master Lynn, seeds, a batch of vegetable seeds."
"Onion seeds, cabbage seeds, radish seeds, bean seeds, carrot seeds, beet seeds, kale seeds, and so on!"
"A total of 10,000 pounds!"
"And 40,000 pounds of wheat..."
Lynn nodded in satisfaction, "Very good, my estate just happens to be lacking vegetable seeds."
Now autumn plowing and planting have ended.
The two hundred farrs led by Gavin and Wilbur happen to be able to plant those unfinished plots with all the vegetables.
Boer’s words continued, "Master, after each period, there will be mbers of my business association transporting so common goods to your estate."
"If you urgently need anything, you can also tell us, we can acquire it for you in Kakasong City!"
What Boer said was good news for Lynn.
According to this, Boer beca his external purchaser.
Moreover, he is a purchaser that doesn’t need him to bear any risk!
Lynn looked at Boer and said, "I need labor with craftsmanship skills!"
"The more, the better!"
Listening to Lynn’s words, Boer’s expression changed, "Master Lynn, are you talking about slaves?"
"As for slaves, we might not be able to deal in buying or selling..."
In the Karedi Empire, it is not easy to beco a rchant.
To beco a rchant who can buy and sell slaves is even more difficult.
Such qualification often requires the nods of many powers, plus seal stamps.
Only specially qualified people can deal in special goods commodities!
Even if Lynn exchanges him for fine salt, Boer can sell it only through special channels...
Simply put, it’s monopoly!
Lynn said, "I understand this."
"What I an is, there are many Free People in Kakasong City!"
Like in every village and town, the city also has Free People.
And, even more of them!
Like his mother, working in the textile workshop in Bordeaux City.
Without leasing any land, just relying on craftsmanship ability, earning wages in Bordeaux City to support the family.
Thus, as long as within Marquis Duca’s territorial range, they can have the right to free movent within a certain scope.
Kakasong City is ho to at least tens of thousands of Free People.
They rely on various industries of Lords and live under the command of nobility and wealthy people.
To say nothing of attracting thousands, even tens of thousands, the manual skills ability in his territory will be greatly improved.
Upon hearing this.
Boer understood as well.
He pondered briefly and said, "Alright, Master Lynn, I can give it a try."
Lynn responded.
Ten thousand pounds of vegetable seeds are not expensive.
Two pounds can be bought for one penny.
Plus 40,000 pounds of wheat.
After converting to fine salt, it’s 7,500 pounds.
With the current output efficiency of two thousand pounds of fine salt from three salt factories, eight thousand pounds can be produced in four days.
Seven thousand five hundred pounds is not much.
After all of the goods are unloaded, fine salt is loaded onto Boer’s carriage.
Boer mounted his horse and left Lynn’s estate swiftly in a night-ti rush.
Even now, the night had already enveloped the whole world...
When the torch-lit wagon convoy disappeared into the darkness.
Lynn withdrew his gaze.
While eating the dinner Kuisi prepared, his mind continued to ponder.
According to Grayson’s previous words, Free People captured by the Portlands Empire were all released.
This also ans that henceforth it is likely that there will no longer be the previous cases of five hundred or a thousand slaves being sent to his estate.
Lynn wants to gain more labor force; he must find other ways.
Directing Free People from Kakasong City or Morgan Town to his estate is one solution.
The second solution—plunder!
Rob all the slaves or Free People from other Lords!
No.
Accurately speaking, liberation!
He has so much waste land waiting to be developed and planted.
Also, with such advanced planting thods, which can increase production several tis.
Yet lacking a large labor force to carry out farming.
Those Manor Lords imprison hundreds and thousands of slaves without food, clothing, or housing.
The crops they produce almost outweigh the seeds sown.
Can this even be called farming?
This is wasting land, wasting labor force!
If he had several thousand more labor force, this autumn’s plowing wouldn’t stop at 50,000 acres.
But 100,000 acres!
Even more!
Thinking of this, Lynn’s body beca a bit restless.
He increasingly anticipates the arrival of next spring.
In four months, the Bow and Arrow Workshop would have completed producing three hundred longbows.
The Blacksmith Workshop can already produce nine hundred sets of standard plate armor and a large number of winged spears.
The soldiers trained by Rose naturally can wear standard plate armor for battle!
By then, it will be his ti to conduct external seizures!
He wants to liberate all others’ slaves and Free People!
