Was it so common to run into orcs? I thought villagers only encountered them by chance, once or twice a year,
It was like that, but they seem to be appearing more often recently,
Is there any reason?
No idea. Its not like Im familiar with the behaviour patterns of orcs,
How did the orcs beco more active at the very edge of the Empire? After thinking about it for a mont, Rockefeller understood the reason without difficulty.
Is it the work of the Goblin Bank?
The Goblin Bank.
It was the largest bank in the continent a place where the loan business transcended tribes, nations and species, and in the novel, it was a place of darkness.
The main character had a really hard ti because of these guys.
Unlike so other novels in which goblins were classified as dumb or low-level monsters, the goblins in this novel were clever and well-rounded.
Besides that, when talking about money these weirdos created a bank even before humans did. Theyre guys who really give you a headache.
So when it cos to goblins, they are a race everyone in the world points fingers at and hates. It wasnt because of how smart and conniving they were but because they were money lenders who lived on exorbitant interest like the goldsmiths.
On top of that, they had an extrely ruthless side that ant they only think about themselves and would never hesitate to do anything to earn money.
And the result of that was
Its to either cause strife between factions or to promote a war,
War ant money, and places like the Goblin Bank that could lend this money would make huge profits when war broke out.
Perhaps they were trying to control the orcs and cause a disturbance with the dwarfs sohow. Then, if it causes war, the goblins would probably dance around in happiness,
The recent suspicious movents of the orcs on the borders of the Empire was the work of the Goblin Bank who were trying to instigate a war between the two races. The Dwarven Kingdom bordered the territory near the Empire, and the relationship between the dwarves and orcs had never been good.
And if that is the case then Ill have to be careful about mining the gold for the ti being itd be just my luck to encounter an orc at a ti like this,
Carter had already moved to examine the Placer Gold that Rockefeller had brought said,
Is that all youve brought? When Carter asked that with a look of regret, Rockefeller just scratched the back of his head because even he knew he had brought too little,
Yeah, its not much. He only gave this much,
Although the transactions were still at a stage where trust had not been built up, it was impossible to make a big profit with this much, so Carter could only sigh.
The amount is too small. I cant even have fun with this,
After muttering alone by himself, he began to try his luck with Rockefeller in his disappointnt.
You too, if you want to make so money, talk to the smuggler. Wouldnt it be better for you too if he and I did business in larger quantities?
It would but hes so careful. After all, its not just a matter of trust between you and him. Theres also in the middle, right? Thats probably why he doesnt entrust with a large amount at once,
Carter frowned slightly,
Still, try and talk to him after all, even he cant make much money with this much,
Then Ill try talking; after all, I want to make money,
I wasnt going to go this far, but whats left for you after trading this small amount? In that case, it would be better not to do it at all. After all, its not worth the risk to smuggle this amount.
Rockefeller didnt miss the sight of the goldsmith who was dissatisfied with the amount of money he was making.
This person is just like after all,
In the eyes of ordinary people, the goldsmith was a wealthy man. It wasnt like he lacked anything, so why was he acting like he needed to make money?
But Rockefeller didnt think like that.
If you earn 100 million, you want to have 1 billion, and when you earn that 1 billion, you want to have 10 billion. That was human nature. This person doesnt show it much, but hes very greedy for money.
