Chapter 467: Chapter 204: I’m Willing to Pay More (10,000) (4)
If he later exchanges for the [Emperor Potato], the potato yield could only be described as frightening.
Lynn feels there might even be a situation with a grain surplus.
However.
Lynn knows that for now, exchanging for the [Emperor Potato] is sowhat unrealistic.
The pressing task at hand.
Is how to quickly purchase and exchange for more barley seeds for the upcoming planting.
With a thought, Lynn opened the [Resource Managent] panel.
After raiding Morrison Manor, over six hundred thousand pounds of barley and hundreds of thousands of pounds of wheat are already stored in the warehouse.
However.
Both barley and wheat are part of the daily grain consumption of the townsn.
Even with the balance of peas, barley, and at vegetables.
The daily consumption of barley is at least ten thousand pounds.
This amount of grain storage barely sustains the townsn until the next ti rchants transport grain to the territory.
Even if a team with ten wagons could transport grain, it would at most be fifty thousand pounds in one go.
Unless.
Boer can once again bring nearly a hundred wagons, like a train, to transport large quantities of barley to his territory.
Regarding other rchants.
Lynn no longer holds many expectations.
Even like Alan, who has a grain warehouse in Kakasong City.
The last ti he could transport large amounts of grain was because of accumulated grain over a few years, totaling such an amount.
If it were any other rchant, even if they ca from another Empire, the purchase and ti spent coming and returning.
And the limit of horse transport capacity from Kakasong City’s Fisherman’s Wharf to his territory...
Is far inferior compared to Boer, a local agricultural trader, who arrives much faster!
Unfortunately.
The winter barley planted similarly requires harvesting in July and August.
Otherwise, with the yield of the already planted fifty-five thousand acres of barley, it would completely suffice for the spring barley seed requirent.
Achieving seed cycle farming.
Just as Lynn was contemplating.
Red, standing behind Lynn, reminded, "Master, there’s a rchant caravan."
Lynn snapped out of his thoughts and looked into the distance.
There.
Fully loaded wagons, under the guidance of drivers, escorted by soldiers in standard plate armor, headed towards the town.
As the wagons ca closer, Lynn saw the man on the foremost horse.
It was indeed Boer Hansen!
Boer, on his horse, saw Lynn on the listone road, quickly halted his horse, and dismounted.
Approaching Lynn, Boer bowed with a rchant’s courtesy.
"Master Lynn."
Lynn nodded with a smile, responding, "Mr. Boer, I was just thinking of you, and here you are!"
Boer stood up straight, smiling, "Of course, Master Lynn needs barley seeds, and as Master Lynn’s business partner, I must do my utmost."
Boer wasted no words, directly beginning his explanation.
"Master Lynn, according to your previous requirents, I have already instructed my guild."
"Even if it’s above market price, we must gather large quantities of grain and seeds from all over."
"Master Lynn, rest assured, the excess price will be my return to you."
Not to ntion that barley itself is five pounds per penny, even above market price, it’s at most four pounds per penny.
With Master Lynn’s rounding and nullifying in every transaction.
This penny amount is nothing at all.
Moreover, with Master Lynn’s generosity and magnanimity, even if he paid, Master Lynn would make it up to him in another form.
Lynn slightly nodded, "Then I’ll trouble Mr. Boer."
Boer quickly bowed, "Master Lynn, you are too kind, without you, there wouldn’t be a Boer today!"
"I will rember it for a lifeti!"
With these words.
Boer’s gaze shifted to the carriage team behind him.
He began his introduction, "Master Lynn, this ti I’ve allied with eight local agricultural rchants."
"They still have so last year’s barley in their warehouses, originally intended for high-priced external sales."
"But upon learning it was you who needed it, they contributed without hesitation..."
"I’ve checked carefully, and with my wagons, there is a total of twenty wagons, carrying a total of one hundred thousand pounds of grain."
"And four hundred pounds of various crop seeds, including cabbage, onions, radishes, and spinach..."
Lynn nodded, inquiring, "Very good."
"I’ll take all of these."
"What is the total cost?"
Boer didn’t hesitate, imdiately replying, "This batch’s price is also at market price, barley at five pounds per penny, and vegetable seeds at one penny for two pounds!"
In Lynn’s mind, he quickly calculated, "I can trade you four thousand one hundred pounds of fine salt!"
"How does Mr. Boer find this offer?"
Upon hearing Lynn’s words, Boer’s face lit up with joy, imdiately responding, "Of course, Master Lynn."
One hundred thousand pounds of barley, plus four hundred pounds of vegetable seeds, totaled only twenty thousand two hundred pence.
Yet Master Lynn was willing to offer him four thousand one hundred pounds of fine salt!
Not only calculated at five pence per pound of fine salt but also rounded up.
After confirming the price, Lynn had the Guard lead the wagon team into the town to unload the goods.
Lynn continued to stand where he was.
Taking in a deep breath of the unique grassy bitterness after the grass was cut, Lynn continued speaking.
