Chapter 846: Chapter 267: Horse Trainer (10,000 Words) (3)
In his mind, he pondered for a while.
He realized that aside from Lynn’s territory, there is no other lord or land where he could safely settle Old Sion’s family.
Once Old Sion was settled, Alan felt relieved.
He continued speaking to Lynn: "Apart from the two hundred dium warhorses, I have also brought you fifty thousand pounds of grain, Master Lynn."
"Master Lynn, after arriving in the Karedi Empire, I realized how high the grain prices in the Karedi Empire have beco?"
"Nearly two pounds for one penny? The sa price as wheat in normal tis!"
From Alan’s words, Lynn could clearly sense.
During this period, Alan was not in the Karedi Empire, nor even in its vicinity.
Otherwise.
With this rise in grain prices lasting nearly half a year, it would be impossible for him, as a rchant, not to have heard any news.
Lynn even felt that Alan hadn’t been engaged in business activities during this ti!
However.
Since Alan did not explain, he wouldn’t ask.
Lynn responded: "Prices have indeed risen sowhat excessively."
"But, soon it’s ti for the sumr harvest."
"Once the sumr harvest is complete, and the market is filled with enough grain, prices will gradually fall."
When supply exceeds demand, prices are bound to fall.
This is an eternal market rule.
"However, Mr. Alan, no matter when or what the market price is."
"As long as you can deliver goods to my territory, I can purchase them with Gold Pounds, or exchange for the goods you need."
Hearing Lynn’s assured response, Alan understood and replied.
"That would be splendid, Master Lynn."
Lynn glanced at the goods Alan brought and spoke.
"Then, Mr. Alan, please quote a price to finalize this transaction."
Alan, slightly dazed, said: "Master Lynn is right, business should not be delayed!"
"dium warhorses from the Badan Empire are also priced at twenty Gold Pounds each!"
"For fifty thousand pounds of barley, you can calculate it according to the current market price, two pounds per penny."
Alan’s tone shifted, "Master Lynn, fine salt!"
"Just exchange all these goods for fine salt for , that’s fine."
Lynn responded, and his thoughts quickly turned.
A few seconds later.
Lynn answered: "Two hundred warhorses are valued at four thousand Gold Pounds!"
"Fifty thousand pounds of barley are worth twenty-five thousand pence."
"If all exchanged for fine salt, it can be swapped for one hundred ninety-seven thousand pounds!"
After speaking.
A thought occurred to Lynn, and he quickly checked the[Resource Managent]panel.
Luckily.
Through accumulating over a considerable period.
The amount of fine salt stored in his warehouse had reached nearly five hundred thousand pounds!
The key reason fine salt could be stored was because other economic industries developed in his territory.
For example.
Hunter, the tavern owner of Riverfront Rest in Kakasong City, does not need fine salt for exchange.
He needs gin and beer from the brewery for his tavern’s drinks sales.
Another example.
Grayson, knowing his territory offers high-quality glazed glass, prefers to exchange shipped goods for glass products.
Because for Grayson, glass products bring him more profit.
Lynn glanced at Alan’s wagons, "But with your current wagon capacity, you can’t hold nearly two hundred thousand pounds of fine salt..."
Alan similarly looked back at them.
"Master Lynn, you can rest assured."
"If it can’t be transported in one trip, then two trips, if not two then four..."
"The rchant ship I currently use for trade is a Kirk Ship, with a load capacity of nearly one hundred fifty tons!"
"As long as the fine salt can be transported to the Fisherman’s Wharf in Kakasong City, I can transport it elsewhere."
Lynn nodded.
He was not too surprised by Alan’s water transport capability.
If he didn’t have the ability to transport over a hundred tons of load.
Alan couldn’t have brought those two hundred warhorses from the Badan Empire to the Karedi Empire!
His gaze shifted towards George nearby.
George imdiately caught the cue, nodded, and retreated, preparing to arrange the townsn to unload the goods.
As for Old Sion’s family.
Lynn instructed the guards to lead them and the warhorses to the ranch.
He let Guy arrange their lodging and rest.
They had just arrived in the territory and needed to familiarize themselves with it before training horses.
No matter how much he needed a horse trainer, it wasn’t urgent at the mont.
After arranging everything, Lynn looked at Alan and proposed: "Mr. Alan, while waiting for the loading and unloading, care for a drink at the tavern?"
Alan heard this, and his slightly curved eyebrows instantly raised.
"Why not, Master Lynn."
"Even if you hadn’t invited
now, I would shalessly ask you."
"You may not know, after drinking the gin from your territory, drinking other alcohol feels like drinking water."
"Tasteless!"
Lynn chuckled and said: "Please, Mr. Alan."
Upon receiving Lynn’s invitation, Alan did not stand on ceremony.
The two of them walked towards the tavern.
As they walked, Alan gazed into the distance at the Aladia River.
He curiously asked: "Master Lynn, have you dispatched anyone to investigate upstream and downstream of that river?"
Lynn followed Alan’s gaze.
Behind a large area of red brick houses was the wide river surface of the Aladia River.
