Gould knows Otto’s character, Otto is not a shameless **** for money, he treats people with integrity.
He believes that it is precisely because Otto is brave and honest and fair that he can miraculously command the stability of a large tribe for ten years!
is that the situation is getting different now.
Gould declared that he would spend a lot of money on furs made by the Russ at the end of every winter. This year's situation is extremely special. For this, he has paid a thousand silver coins for the purchase, which will inevitably be in the Merlaren tribe. Earn a fortune in the Union Grand Bazaar.
"I still have four thousand silver coins to buy your products. I know that you can't mass produce magical steel swords at this stage. For this reason, I paid your blacksmith up to two hundred silver coins and asked him to give me a priority. The self-defense short sword with gold pattern, I paid a huge sum of money and still have to wait for many days to get it. The sword you made recently is amazing. I don't think you will actively export steel swords."
The matter of steel swords is indeed very sensitive.
In any era, the export of weapons is absolutely huge profits, not to mention the fact that there is a terrible generation gap between the low-carbon steel sword and the ordinary wrought iron sword.
Weapons are often a little bit smarter than the enemy, and their manifestation on the battlefield is often a terrible crush.
Alto and his guys naturally realized that exporting weapons indiscriminately might be a stupid thing to lift a rock and smash one's own feet, not to mention that it is quite easy for a strong man to sever an ordinary iron sword with a steel sword.
"I...I admire your courage." Otto spoke in a low voice, a threat in his attitude.
How could Gould not be aware of this threat. He motioned to the personal guard next to him to stay relaxed. With his sleek and greasy face full of fat, he showed that he was a smart man with a commercial smile.
He bowed respectfully again, expressing his intention to buy soap on a large scale.
"I will keep the matter of your Steel Sword secret, everyone present, we must be strict with ourselves. If I revealed the news of Steel Sword, great leader, you can confiscate all my property in Roseburg. On business issues , We are excellent allies, I will never betray wealth, and your care.
Now, I am willing to spend four thousand silver coins to buy your sopa.
Ordinary sopa, you sell two silver coins, and I offer three. You sell three silver coins in yellow and white, and I will offer four! I want as much as you have! When the ice and snow melt, I will organize a fleet to transport them away. Now, I just want to know whether you can complete it in 60 days. "
"Yes!" Otto said without thinking. In fact, if the priests keep working, accomplishing it is not impossible. What's more, the priest has already stocked more than three hundred bars of soap, which is being stored in a relatively warm wooden house where the water can't freeze, receiving the so-called natural air drying treatment.
Four thousand silver coins. To get it, more than one thousand bars of soap need to be dumped. It is not a big problem to produce it in 60 days.
Commercial transactions are very smooth. There is a significant difference between Otto and Lurik in this respect, that is, Otto does not feel that it is necessary to engrave the transaction on a wooden board and make a written transaction contract.
Orally, both of them are honest people, does it seem to be divided when discussing any contract documents?
Otto raised his glass to clink with Gould, which is also the friendship between the leader and the big businessman.
Gould, who was already in a slightly drunk state, felt quite comfortable and couldn't help but talk about another thing: "Chief, you are going to establish a new stronghold in the East. I already know about this. I haven't been to the legend. Novgorod, if I can do business with those people, I would be very happy."
"Oh, huh? Those guys are stupid, but they can provide a lot of fur. If you want, you can follow us next fall. Haha, you should understand Nov when you see the women who married here. Gorod’s women are beautiful. Maybe you would like to have a new concubine."
"Maybe!" Gould shrugged, "Great leader, maybe you don't understand the result of too many concubines. They are a group of quarrelsome women, they have given me many children, and I have settled them. . But..." Gould complained that his women were jealous, they were actually getting more property from their fathers for their children.
Merchants are different from warriors.
Ordinary families are warriors who are not afraid of death. Because of their limited wealth, such families can only inherit their wealth as much as possible for the elder son. Merchants are different. After all, the palms of the palms and the backs of the hands are full of flesh, giving the eldest son all the wealth, which is bound to meet the hatred of other sons.
Besides, business behavior is completely different from warrior behavior.
The boys of the whole family, and even the girls who got married, have remained united in their lives. In this way, the family can make greater fortune by using the ever-expanding network of relationships. Because for businessmen, the way to obtain wealth is to be a clever second-door dealer. There is no other way to get information, buy low, sell high, and make smart speculation.
"I still don't want to have a new concubine. Great leader, I don't think I am a loyal person, but you are such a good person."
Otto understood what Gould meant. Find a way to marry the new concubine Ji? It was not that he had never thought about it, and he did not bluntly refuse it together with his wife Bona.
This incident ceased as the two sons had accidents one after another. Now, Otto doesn't have such thoughts anymore.
Gould doesn't want to continue talking about women, and making his family business bigger is his goal.
He bowed his head and suddenly asked about another thing that must make Otto wary.
"Great boss, I noticed that your young people are clamoring for revenge, clamoring to make the Gotlanders pay the price of blood. Are you really doing this? Are you..." Gould paused specially. "Are you ready to attack." Starting https://https://
The once cheerful atmosphere instantly cooled down.
Otto frowned and thought for a while, the corner of her eyes was also aware of the changes in the expressions of her subordinates. He finally revealed: "I am not particularly happy about this. But those young people, they..."
Otto did not give a clear answer at all, but his hesitation was acquiescence in Gould's view.
Otto is already old, and many things are beyond his control. He can't act as an old man and use his experienced historical experience to suppress a group of young people's thirst for great wealth. What's more, in the attack on Gotland, there is also a "great righteousness" called blood revenge.
Gould realized Otto's hesitation, "I know that many years ago those hateful islanders attacked your caravan and killed your people. In terms of hatred, they have also attacked your people in the farther age. This hatred must be reported!
I can understand your anger. If my child is killed by them, I will hire warriors at a high price to help me take revenge for this bloated person. "
Gould’s remarks were very useful, and Otto and his close friends were quite moved.
Are they all allies of the same alliance, those guys in Gotland can be described as common enemies!
Gould actually believes that the Ross tribe either does not mention this matter. Once it is raised years later, it would be a coward to hold back revenge, and their young people must be busy sharpening their swords. He even boldly assumed that the booming business of the Cravason Blacksmith's shop might have something to do with revenge. He sent the ministry to inquire, and learned that even many families with little wealth have to find ways to order a steel sword, without any decoration, as long as it can be used on the battlefield.
The current situation must be very delicate, look at Otto, the leader of the Ross people! Otto himself may be a calm existence, but Gould clearly felt a strong murderous aura and the desire for wealth in the eyes of the other strong men sitting there.
Seeing that the timing was ripe, Gould deliberately cut to the point of the topic.
"Great boss, I know something about Gotland."
"Oh? Then just talk about it." Otto urged.
"Yes. Regarding those people... Although they are hostile to our alliance, in fact there are still merchants doing private transactions. Years ago, they even landed on the island in disguise and did some business with those islanders. They think I am In fact, I am a Danish. My dress deceived them and saved my life. I earned a silver coin and I knew something about the Gotland people."
This guy’s words contained some amazing inside stories, Otto asked, "Oh? How did you fool them?"
"Hey, I didn't use any special methods at all." Gould boasted to himself: "The small fleet I organized, my ships do not have any special decorations, but some ordinary transport ships. My people are at night. Rowing, even hired a little Danish farmer who lacked money to be the oarsman. You know, many Danes don’t care about alliances, as long as they have money to make money, they will work for you.
We set off from Lake Mälaren, continued rowing at night and circled the entire island from the east. When we circled to the west of the island, we swaggered forward during the day.
I landed as a Danish and provided a lot of sheepskins to the islanders. When they saw these sheepskins, they no longer doubted my identity. I'm just a businessman, and after earning money, I took my people away. "
Introducing his so-called thrilling business operations, Gould always had a proud smile on his face.
This smile made Haro Zossen a little displeased. He asked loudly, "Businessman! You are doing business with those enemies. Is this something to be proud of?"
"Huh? Don't you understand what I mean?" Soon, Gould's eyes glanced at Otto: "Great leader, I think you can understand."
At this moment, Otto is silent.
Actually, behind Otto’s silence, he was already thinking about a tactic to attack the Gotlanders. It was Gould who provided this tactic that might be a big win!
Gould took Otto’s silence as an incomprehension of the other party, so he simply explained the matter thoroughly: "If you attack, you must not take shortcuts, and you must not attack from the northwest of the island, Goth. Lan Ren is very vigilant in that respect.
They especially like silver and gold. They have a lot of wealth. They have the money to recruit a group of mercenaries composed of various people, and they will become very powerful! If you want revenge, don't land if you don't have enough power. If you insist on landing, just land from the southwest. You can looting quickly, but when it gets dark, you will immediately evacuate. Your army must be at least more than 500 people, otherwise the number is too small, and it is very likely that the entire army will be annihilated due to not withdrawing in time. I believe you are very brave, those Gotlanders are definitely not bad! "ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
Hearing this, Harrodsson was not happy: "We killed more than a dozen people that year, and we cut off 200 of them! We won a big victory! Those Gotlanders are just a bunch of idiots!"
"Really?" Gould's temper suddenly came up, and he looked at Haro Zuosen's face: "It was more than seven years ago, and I still vaguely remember the matter. What kind of ships did you seize? They were all ordinary. The fishing boats. And the rusty axes and curved spearheads that were captured. They were just inferior weapons. Your great feats were nothing but the elimination of a group of stupid fishermen who were not equipped with leather armor. Those dead were not Gotland at all. Human elite! If the Gotland people are really a bunch of idiots, then how can our alliance fight hard in Gotaland?"
"No! They are just a bunch of idiots." Harrodsson insisted on his opinion, after all, he had cut down a group of Gotland attackers back then.
There was a quarrel in the scene, Otto knew the significance of the matter, he raised his hand to signal that he shut up.
When the scene cooled, Otto deliberately assumed a respectful posture to face Gould: "You are a brave and wise businessman. I really appreciate your important information. Regarding whether the Gotlanders are powerful enemies , UU看书www.uukanshu.com My tendency is that they are indeed strong. My younger brother died in their hands, I wish I had a chance to eradicate them completely, but also to take away all their wealth. But these years I Calmly thought a lot, only relying on our own strength, it is impossible to defeat them completely, at most, we can achieve a raid victory in a narrow battlefield.
Businessman, I still need more information from you. I really want to know how rich the Gotland people are and what their elite power is. "
I was revered by the leader of a big tribe. Gould felt that he was extremely respected. This is one of the few things that money can't buy!
Of course, Gould has to provide more information. If he wants to establish a foothold and develop with the Roths in the future, he must further gain the trust of their leader. He bluffed against the Gotlanders to reflect his strategic value to the Ruths.
How rich are Gotland people? For example, there are a lot of maids, endless wine, endless barbecue, and piles of gold that is higher than anyone else. He said so vividly, and he also convinced others. These words are not only for Otto, but also to arouse the desire to conquer the group of "generals" around Otto.
Otto is calm, and his subordinates must have a large number of radicals. Looking at the trembling eyes of this group of people when they heard the word "gold", Gould felt that his incitement had been successful.
Attack the Gotland? The Ross people will do that.
Now that the problem has become quite clear, Gould believes that since he has even revealed a reasonable offensive line, how can the Roths not do it?
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

What's more, in the attack on Gotland, there is also a "great righteousness" called blood revenge.Gould realized Otto's hesitation, "I know that many years ago those hateful islanders attacked your caravan and killed your people. In terms of hatred, they have also attacked your people in the farther age. This hatred must be reported! I can understand your anger. If my child is killed by them, I will hire warriors at a high price to help me take revenge for this bloated person. " Gould's remarks were very useful, and Otto and his close friends were quite moved. Are they all allies of the same alliance, those guys in Gotland can be described as common enemies! Gould actually believes that the Ross tribe either does not mention this matter. Once it is raised years later, it would be a coward to hold back revenge, and their young people must be busy sharpening their swords. He even boldly assumed that the booming business of the Cravason Blacksmith's shop might have something to do with revenge. He sent the ministry to inquire, and learned that even many families with little wealth have to find ways to order a steel sword, without any decoration, as long as it can be used on the battlefield. The current situation must be very delicate, look at Otto, the leader of the Ross people! Otto himself may be a calm existence, but Gould clearly felt a strong murderous aura and the desire for wealth in the eyes of the other strong men sitting there. Seeing that the timing was ripe, Gould deliberately cut to the point of the topic. "Great boss, I know something about Gotland." "Oh? Then just talk about it." Otto urged."Yes. Regarding those people... Although they are hostile to our alliance, in fact there are still merchants doing private transactions. Years ago, they even landed on the island in disguise and did some business with those islanders. They think I am In fact, I am a Danish. My dress deceived them and saved my life. I earned a silver coin and I knew something about the Gotland people." This guy's words contained some amazing inside stories, Otto asked, "Oh? How did you fool them?""Hey, I didn't use any special methods at all." Gould boasted to himself: "The small fleet I organized, my ships do not have any special decorations, but some ordinary transport ships. My people are at night. Rowing, even hired a little Danish farmer who lacked money to be the oarsman. You know, many Danes don't care about alliances, as long as they have money to make money, they will work for you. We set off from Lake Mlaren, continued rowing at night and circled the entire island from the east. When we circled to the west of the island, we swaggered forward during the day.I landed as a Danish and provided a lot of sheepskins to the islanders. When they saw these sheepskins, they no longer doubted my identity. I'm just a businessman, and after earning money, I took my people away. " Introducing his so-called thrilling business operations, Gould always had a proud smile on his face. This smile made Haro Zossen a little displeased. He asked loudly, "Businessman! You are doing business with those enemies. Is this something to be proud of?" "Huh? Don't you understand what I mean?" Soon, Gould's eyes glanced at Otto: "Great leader, I think you can understand." At this moment, Otto is silent.Actually, behind Otto's silence, he was already thinking about a tactic to attack the Gotlanders. It was Gould who provided this tactic that might be a big win!Gould took Otto's silence as an incomprehension of the other party, so he simply explained the matter thoroughly: "If you attack, you must not take shortcuts, and you must not attack from the northwest of the island, Goth. Lan Ren is very vigilant in that respect.They especially like silver and gold. They have a lot of wealth. They have the money to recruit a group of mercenaries composed of various people, and they will become very powerful! If you want revenge, don't land if you don't have enough power. If you insist on landing, just land from the southwest. You can looting quickly, but when it gets dark, you will immediately evacuate. Your army must be at least more than 500 people, otherwise the number is too small, and it is very likely that the entire army will be annihilated due to not withdrawing in time. I believe you are very brave, those Gotlanders are definitely not bad! "~~1~.~~1z.c Hearing this, Harrodsson was not happy: "We killed more than a dozen people that year, and we cut off 200 of them! We won a big victory! Those Gotlanders are just a bunch of idiots!""Really?" Gould's temper suddenly came up, and he looked at Haro Zuosen's face: "It was more than seven years ago, and I still vaguely remember the matter. What kind of ships did you seize? They were all ordinary. The fishing boats. And the rusty axes and curved spearheads that were captured. They were just inferior weapons. Your great feats were nothing but the elimination of a group of stupid fishermen who were not equipped with leather armor. Those dead were not Gotland at all. Human elite! If the Gotland people are really a bunch of idiots, then how can our alliance fight hard in Gotaland?" "No! They are just a bunch of idiots." Harrodsson insisted on his opinion, after all, he had cut down a group of Gotland attackers back then. There was a quarrel in the scene, Otto knew the significance of the matter, he raised his hand to signal that he shut up.When the scene cooled, Otto deliberately assumed a respectful posture to face Gould: "You are a brave and wise businessman. I really appreciate your important information. Regarding whether the Gotlanders are powerful enemies , UUwww.uukanshu.com My tendency is that they are indeed strong. My younger brother died in their hands, I wish I had a chance to eradicate them completely, but also to take away all their wealth. But these years I Calmly thought a lot, only relying on our own strength, it is impossible to defeat them completely, at most, we can achieve a raid victory in a narrow battlefield.Businessman, I still need more information from you. I really want to know how rich the Gotland people are and what their elite power is. "I was revered by the leader of a big tribe. Gould felt that he was extremely respected. This is one of the few things that money can't buy! Of course, Gould has to provide more information. If he wants to establish a foothold and develop with the Roths in the future, he must further gain the trust of their leader. He bluffed against the Gotlanders to reflect his strategic value to the Ruths. How rich are Gotland people? For example, there are a lot of maids, endless wine, endless barbecue, and piles of gold that is higher than anyone else. He said so vividly, and he also convinced others. These words are not only for Otto, but also to arouse the desire to conquer the group of "generals" around Otto. Otto is calm, and his subordinates must have a large number of radicals. Looking at the trembling eyes of this group of people when they heard the word "gold", Gould felt that his incitement had been successful. Attack the Gotland? The Ross people will do that. Now that the problem has become quite clear, Gould believes that since he has even revealed a reasonable offensive line, how can the Roths not do it?
