It was the first time that Blue Fox entered the monastery. He looked around, but he was disappointed just by scanning. Is the temple co-authored by the Franks so shabby?
Eskil did not. He saw the blue fox watching this and that, and immediately took hold of his own way.
This old guy smiled to the blue fox and promoted: "You are a noble person, and you should have a great faith."
"Faith?" Blue Fox couldn't help taking a step back, and suddenly understood the person's intentions. "Eskil, I know your name. Why bother? I'm just the messenger of Master Rurik."
"Yes. It doesn’t matter if you put on a sand clock after a major event. Those armed men believe in Odin, but you! You must not believe in that. You are not a warrior, you are a good person, and believe in our god. ! Now the letter is still too late."
"Really? I still prefer gold and silver coins, oh there are women."
This little fat man explained that, co-authoring this person is the kind of weird thing that doesn't believe in any gods? In Eskil's view, this kind of talent is the easiest to be influenced.
"You believe in at least one god." Eskil's words are very meaningful, even with a hint of philosophy: "We don't know the future, but the Almighty Lord must have set everyone's destiny. Believe in our Lord, You will avoid all kinds of disasters. Each of us will die. I can see that you have a noble soul. Believe in our Lord, and your noble soul can go to heaven..."
"Don't!" Blue Fox waved his hand vigorously: "Stop talking, I'll think about it if you listen to your suggestions."
He didn't say anything. This shows that there is still a scene behind, and Eskil doesn't think his persuasion can be immediate. This is more comforting, and some material is added to the words: "You know, Hezeby is a land of no owner. The demonic gangs that breed in the mud are staring at you big businessmen the most. They are not afraid of anything. , It’s better to take risks for the sake of money. You still think about it carefully. Believe in our Lord, and you will be blessed by the Lord. And to be more realistic, the Earl of Hamburg and the Earl of Bremen will give you real blessing."
"Do you want the protection of the Frankish nobles?" The blue fox didn't expect this Frankish monk to speak like this. A monk is qualified to say this? He burst into laughter and said with disdain: "I am the one who has been sheltered by Prince Rurik."
Eskil, who travels all over the world, also does his part: "Let's think about it. This is already the domain of the Lord! Duke Ross is indeed great, but he is too far away. In this unowned city, Frank will give you some facts. It's a real help. It's just that you have to truly become us..."
As a businessman, you can't do anything absolutely. Moreover, Hezeby is indeed not peaceful. Smart businessman knows the truth of multiple friends and multiple paths.
The blue fox's emotions eased, and he expressed with a commercial smile: "I will consider your suggestions carefully. I believe in your kindness. Now, I don't want to waste any more time."
He then gave John Invar a look, and the rope of the cloth bag he was holding was pulled apart.
John Invale spread out the rolled letter paper and sent it to the teacher Eskil’s surprise.
"Pada, this is an autograph letter from Prince Rurik to you. Don't worry, the whole text is in Latin."
"It's all Latin? He..."
Eskil didn't know how to answer. At first, he felt that this was a parchment document, which was completely different when he touched it in his hand.
What a strange writing material, like parchment and cloth. He didn't know the paper, he had been active in the northern part of the kingdom, and he didn't even know the papyrus.
Of course, he can quickly understand the Latin content of the letter, but the content is too peculiar.
"Ah! The auditorium is no longer suitable. Come with me, let's go to the clerical room."
Eskil is a doer, and this monastery is also his home in Denmark. He must regularly sum up the results of his work, and then send the letters to the earl of Hamburg, and send it to Prince Ludwig by the earl’s messenger.
He is the most important missionary in the Northland, and the most radical person in spreading faith in Denmark. He has a high status in the church and has the right to write letters on expensive parchment.
He was not surprised when he saw the paper for the first time, because he had no idea what it was.
The essay was actually written by the handsome young warrior King Rurik himself? The font is a bit strange, but I have to say that the font is neat throughout.
With only this essay, he has a great interest in Rose again.
The content of the document involves major events, and even the description is very bizarre.
Eskil has read the essay, and the entire text is a request to describe Rurik.
He let out a sigh, "It's completely true? John, you tell me the truth, don't lie."
"I can not."
Eskil looked at the fat blue fox again: "My students are honest, and I don't dare to doubt Rurik and you, but... you actually took away the princess of the Kingdom of Mercia, Wessex. The bishop of the Kingdom wrote to tell me about this. I tell you clearly that I know the girl named Mary."
The blue fox immediately became interested: "But Mary is dead. The letter said clearly that the cemetery is by a lake in the far east. My master asks you to admit that her child believes in your Frankish god."
Eskil’s heart is beating wildly, because this boy named Regrav is the son of Rurik! The death of Queen Mary is a tragedy, but what is it that a boy is born without a belly and is born a miracle?
"John, Regalf did receive the baptism?" he asked.
"Yes, I am the Baptist."
"Ah!" Eskil's bald head leaned toward the wooden ceiling, "Lord! The Ruriek of the East is a shaken lamb, and his son has already believed in you..."
There was a moment of babbling in Latin, and the blue fox couldn’t understand it. He was a little impatient: "I just want to get a quasi-believers. Do you recognize this child? Do you give me a certificate?
"Of course! I admit that kid, but..." Eskil had obvious reservations.
"How?" Blue Fox asked.
"My John is not qualified to baptize. I left him in the north without a fake. John is not an official pastor. The previous baptisms do not count."
"Okay, I understand, I will tell my master, Frank refuses to admit it."
Blue Fox's words are taken for granted. The words themselves are also neutral, and the boy doesn't bother to care about what blue fox he believes.
Eskil felt that he had offended this distinguished guest: "I have no intentions. You are going back to Rose in the fall, and I will go with you this time. I want to meet Rurik myself, and I want to give Regravs personally. Wash. I also know that Mercia is in chaos and that the child is indeed the orthodox heir to the throne. I will also choose an opportunity to take him to Rome to officially obtain the throne..."
Eskil speaks a lot in the Danish dialect of Nosse, and he doesn't care what the blue fox said.
Blue Fox heard that the old boy was planning to go to Ross again, and everything would be explained to the lord face to face. Well, it's better than reporting on the job yourself.
In the end, Blue Fox did not tell Eskil his own answer. On the contrary, he was very interested in the Frankish monastery, so he visited the worship hall, confessional, baptismal room and so on.
I have to say that this experience has a strange feeling for the blue fox. The most peculiar thing is that he can't see any statues of gods. There is only a unique wood carving that describes a man nailed to a cross.
Since the blue fox is interested, Eskil also intends to introduce more.
The monastery lacks gold and silver utensils. The Frankish monks and monks all live in a bitter way and wear extremely simple clothes, and their bedrooms are also extremely monotonous.
Believe in their gods to live a hard life? Who wants to believe this.
However, if their gods can avoid disasters and bring good luck, just believe them.
Blue Fox meets with his armed guards waiting outdoors, and casually describes his experience to his brothers.
Someone asked why the John Invall did not come out.
Blue Fox’s explanation immediately caused everyone to laugh: “That guy likes the monk, just like the wife likes her husband. That guy has a brain problem, and he will serve the old guy...”
Do men still like men? Even the friendliest comrade-in-arms will not go further. Blue Fox and his guys don't understand, naturally that guy John thinks that is happy, so let him go.
Blue Fox has its own way of rewarding the brothers. This leads them to find women happy. There are several happy places in Hezebi, and the owners of those facilities are also friends of the "commercial guild." If you are happy, you can talk to the old man about trade, because they are also in the leather business.
John Invall stayed in the monastery. This was his home once, but it has changed a lot after not seeing it for more than two years. Here is familiar and unfamiliar, and the unchanging nature is Eskil's attitude towards himself.
He came back naturally with a little Rose's specialty, added a little honey and soap made of chrysanthemum water, after he took a bath, the whole body exuded a strange fragrance.
The fragrance is believed to have sacred power. After John Invar has been to the north for many years, his whole person has become sacred?
"Wow! You are like an angel."
Eskil welcomes his students and his "love", and John Invall is as obedient as ever.
Eskil got a catharsis after a long time, and listened to John's more detailed report.
John said very detailed and very rough, some general but key information attracted Eskil's attention.
The Ross people emigrated to the east on a large scale, and there can be a place of prosperity. The Normans love war, slaughter, and plunder. This has always been criticized by Eskil. It is incredible that Rurik, the Prince of Ross, led his tribe to grow wheat on the farmland.
If the Ross people stop using violence and become docile farmers, they might be able to live in the East...
The more I think about it, the more Eskil feels that going to the east to meet Rose who has immigrated is more meaningful than expanding his followers in northern Sweden.
Because John Invale described it very clearly, Prince Ross personally approved the construction of a small monastery. The beautiful young man Rurik was never repulsive, so he had a huge opportunity.
Before, John Invar was not a pastor. Now Eskil is drafting a document. He has officially appointed John as a pastor and is qualified to be a true missionary, but he still needs to go through a legal process.
In the north of Frankish, the Archbishop of Reims administers all the northern diocese of the kingdom, and all priests confessing their destiny need to be officially certified by Reims. And the archbishops of the Frankish Kingdom and all the archdioceses of Western Europe need to be confessed by the Western Patriarch, the so-called Pope of Rome.
This is a very rigorous system, inherited from the Western Roman Empire that has been destroyed, and now the huge Frankish kingdom that has been substantially divided. All the nobles support this system. Therefore, the kingdom is essentially three princes working independently. The aspect of faith remains unified.
In this era, they still firmly believe that relying on a mouth and charitable actions can influence others. Eskil has never used any force in the past few decades, let alone dare not use any force. By coincidence, there is indeed no external force that really wants it. His fate.
Liurik’s house arrest had been considered crude before, and of course Eskil’s actions were uncharacteristically radical.
He has already learned how to stay in Hazeby, Denmark, in this unowned city, for fear that radical missionary behavior may cause some influence.
Five days later, John Invale returned to the Ross shop, his appearance in a black robe and a black cap was almost unrecognizable.
The armed guards were all laughing, carefully observing whether the boy was limping on foot, let alone, there was a little bit of it, and immediately laughed again.
John Invall didn't know what these guys were laughing at. He came back today just to report something to the blue fox.
The most important thing is that the teacher decided to go to Fort Shilla in the east in the fall. Eskil still has a lot of thoughts, so there is no need to tell the big merchant Blue Fox.
These days, Blue Fox doesn't care about John Invall's personal safety at all. Even if he wants to come to Eskil, he won't hurt his baby.
In the past few days, Blue Fox attended the meeting. In a long house by the sea, thirty rich businessmen from the whole city gathered together.
A pair of wolf-like eyes staring at the blue fox, this little fat man is the turning point of attention.
Because this kid brought too many Ross squirrel skins, and the price was so comfortable, everyone was rushing to buy them.
Guys are not short of money, and a lot of silver coins are sent to the Ross store, but no matter how much leather is, conflicts and disputes will inevitably occur.
Blue Fox is already the president of this loose merchant's guild in a sense, but in fact "chairman" is just a very imaginary title, and only interests are the most important.
He preached at a lively meeting: "We are all businessmen, and we will always cooperate for the benefit. It would be too bad if we fight with each other. All contradictory points are that you want more leather, and I bring The amount of leather still cannot meet your needs. Maybe we should discuss a distribution principle."
Blue Fox has no worries about the sale of leather, because he and the old Eric have really understood through the mouths of these fish-and-dragon traders that the leather is not only sent to the Danish market, but a lot of leather will be sent to the Frankish kingdom. Lords, large and small, are buyers!
Don’t they catch squirrels and ferrets by themselves?
Of course, it was also caught, but there are not many small animals in the kingdom, and the receipt of the goods cannot meet the needs of the Frankish nobles. If you want more, you have to invade the land of Mrs. Wenderslavia, and that means war.
Because the Frankish merchants will also pursue greater interests, the precious leather from the north can be transported to the south of the kingdom to make a big profit, especially to Greece and Anatolia, where the East Roman nobles and nobles are even the northern leather. Big consumer.
How does the low price proposed by the Ross people make Hezer than the businessman feel emotional? That was a full 30,000 pieces of red squirrel skin, which was the leather of the big squirrel that had disappeared in the Frankish territory!
Indeed, in the frigid zone of Northeast Europe, the Russ directly used the crossbow to aim and shoot and hunt, coupled with the traditional net bag trap operation, to treat all the small animals in the undeveloped land is to sweep away.
Besides, the Ross store is selling pure white polar bear skins this year. If this is sold to the Frankish nobles, one skin can make a fortune!
Blue Fox already knows that leather will mainly flow into the Frankish market. It is too far to do business in Frank and it is risky. Now a large group of buyers are rushing to buy it. He and the Prince of Rose can make big money easily and quickly!
Blue Fox pioneered the concept of futures in this conference. However, the invention of the concept of "futures" is also a necessity. When economic activity reaches a certain scale, it will begin to appear.
All the businessmen announced their financial resources to each other, then compared them one after another, and then tried to say that they would buy it at a certain price.
This is the estimated price of various animal leathers after a large amount of leather will enter the Hazeby market next year. This has evolved into the house buying market. All businessmen want to eat the biggest cake, so the price is naturally to propose a higher price to take the most share~www.novelhall.com~ When the blue fox realized that let them toss like this, they could If you grab a big profit, you just let it go. He has a bottom line price, as long as their offer is not lower than this.
Blue Fox didn't know anything about the concept of "tulip mania", or all businessmen didn't know or understood this concept, but their group of businessmen had already begun to act.
Especially Blue Fox, he started a very advanced action.
This year's leather has been divided up by the merchants. Blue Fox signed a brand new agreement with these merchants.
He promised that 30,000 large squirrel skins will arrive in Hezeby next year, and the agreement signed on the wooden paper is this amount. A higher price was determined by the merchants, and everyone also determined their own purchase share, which was determined in the form of a document.
Such an interesting thing happened, and some merchants suddenly realized that they could sell the documents and vouchers in their hands to their counterparts, so that they could get a sum of money immediately. Or you can get a huge share of the purchase if you buy the credentials of your peers, so that a large amount of leather can be pulled to Frank to make greater profits.
These are for later...
Blue Fox is indeed an excellent businessman, but his imagination is a little bit worse. He was very happy, because Hezeby's old business families were all about trade credibility, so subjectively they didn't dare to ruin their credibility. With this operation, Rose has won a clear market for a large amount of leather next year. What is this not a great achievement?
Suddenly he even felt that his seat had surpassed his eldest brother Baihu, and he had also surpassed his father.

This year's leather has been divided up by the merchants. Blue Fox signed a brand new agreement with these merchants.
He promised that 30,000 large squirrel skins will arrive in Hezeby next year, and the agreement signed on the wooden paper is this amount. A higher price was determined by the merchants, and everyone also determined their own purchase share, which was determined in the form of a document.
Such an interesting thing happened, and some merchants suddenly realized that they could sell the documents and vouchers in their hands to their counterparts, so that they could get a sum of money immediately. Or you can get a huge share of the purchase if you buy the credentials of your peers, so that a large amount of leather can be pulled to Frank to make greater profits.
These are for later...
Blue Fox is indeed an excellent businessman, but his imagination is a little bit worse. He was very happy, because Hezeby's old business families were all about trade credibility, so subjectively they didn't dare to ruin their credibility. With this operation, Rose has won a clear market for a large amount of leather next year. What is this not a great achievement?
Suddenly he even felt that his seat had surpassed his eldest brother Baihu, and he had also surpassed his father.
It was the first time that Blue Fox entered the monastery. He looked around, but he was disappointed just by scanning. Is the temple co-authored by the Franks so shabby? Eskil did not. He saw the blue fox watching this and that, and immediately took hold of his own way. This old guy smiled to the blue fox and promoted: "You are a noble person, and you should have a great faith." "Faith?" Blue Fox couldn't help taking a step back, and suddenly understood the person's intentions. "Eskil, I know your name. Why bother? I'm just the messenger of Master Rurik.""Yes. It doesn't matter if you put on a sand clock after a major event. Those armed men believe in Odin, but you! You must not believe in that. You are not a warrior, you are a good person, and believe in our god. ! Now the letter is still too late." "Really? I still prefer gold and silver coins, oh there are women." This little fat man explained that, co-authoring this person is the kind of weird thing that doesn't believe in any gods? In Eskil's view, this kind of talent is the easiest to be influenced."You believe in at least one god." Eskil's words are very meaningful, even with a hint of philosophy: "We don't know the future, but the Almighty Lord must have set everyone's destiny. Believe in our Lord, You will avoid all kinds of disasters. Each of us will die. I can see that you have a noble soul. Believe in our Lord, and your noble soul can go to heaven..." "Don't!" Blue Fox waved his hand vigorously: "Stop talking, I'll think about it if you listen to your suggestions." He didn't say anything. This shows that there is still a scene behind, and Eskil doesn't think his persuasion can be immediate. This is more comforting, and some material is added to the words: "You know, Hezeby is a land of no owner. The demonic gangs that breed in the mud are staring at you big businessmen the most. They are not afraid of anything. , It's better to take risks for the sake of money. You still think about it carefully. Believe in our Lord, and you will be blessed by the Lord. And to be more realistic, the Earl of Hamburg and the Earl of Bremen will give you real blessing." "Do you want the protection of the Frankish nobles?" The blue fox didn't expect this Frankish monk to speak like this. A monk is qualified to say this? He burst into laughter and said with disdain: "I am the one who has been sheltered by Prince Rurik."Eskil, who travels all over the world, also does his part: "Let's think about it. This is already the domain of the Lord! Duke Ross is indeed great, but he is too far away. In this unowned city, Frank will give you some facts. It's a real help. It's just that you have to truly become us..."As a businessman, you can't do anything absolutely. Moreover, Hezeby is indeed not peaceful. Smart businessman knows the truth of multiple friends and multiple paths. The blue fox's emotions eased, and he expressed with a commercial smile: "I will consider your suggestions carefully. I believe in your kindness. Now, I don't want to waste any more time." He then gave John Invar a look, and the rope of the cloth bag he was holding was pulled apart. John Invale spread out the rolled letter paper and sent it to the teacher Eskil's surprise. "Pada, this is an autograph letter from Prince Rurik to you. Don't worry, the whole text is in Latin." "It's all Latin? He..." Eskil didn't know how to answer. At first, he felt that this was a parchment document, which was completely different when he touched it in his hand. What a strange writing material, like parchment and cloth. He didn't know the paper, he had been active in the northern part of the kingdom, and he didn't even know the papyrus. Of course, he can quickly understand the Latin content of the letter, but the content is too peculiar. "Ah! The auditorium is no longer suitable. Come with me, let's go to the clerical room." Eskil is a doer, and this monastery is also his home in Denmark. He must regularly sum up the results of his work, and then send the letters to the earl of Hamburg, and send it to Prince Ludwig by the earl's messenger. He is the most important missionary in the Northland, and the most radical person in spreading faith in Denmark. He has a high status in the church and has the right to write letters on expensive parchment. He was not surprised when he saw the paper for the first time, because he had no idea what it was. The essay was actually written by the handsome young warrior King Rurik himself? The font is a bit strange, but I have to say that the font is neat throughout.With only this essay, he has a great interest in Rose again. The content of the document involves major events, and even the description is very bizarre. Eskil has read the essay, and the entire text is a request to describe Rurik.He let out a sigh, "It's completely true? John, you tell me the truth, don't lie." "I can not."Eskil looked at the fat blue fox again: "My students are honest, and I don't dare to doubt Rurik and you, but... you actually took away the princess of the Kingdom of Mercia, Wessex. The bishop of the Kingdom wrote to tell me about this. I tell you clearly that I know the girl named Mary." The blue fox immediately became interested: "But Mary is dead. The letter said clearly that the cemetery is by a lake in the far east. My master asks you to admit that her child believes in your Frankish god." Eskil's heart is beating wildly, because this boy named Regrav is the son of Rurik! The death of Queen Mary is a tragedy, but what is it that a boy is born without a belly and is born a miracle? "John, Regalf did receive the baptism?" he asked. "Yes, I am the Baptist." "Ah!" Eskil's bald head leaned toward the wooden ceiling, "Lord! The Ruriek of the East is a shaken lamb, and his son has already believed in you..." There was a moment of babbling in Latin, and the blue fox couldn't understand it. He was a little impatient: "I just want to get a quasi-believers. Do you recognize this child? Do you give me a certificate? "Of course! I admit that kid, but..." Eskil had obvious reservations. "How?" Blue Fox asked. "My John is not qualified to baptize. I left him in the north without a fake. John is not an official pastor. The previous baptisms do not count." "Okay, I understand, I will tell my master, Frank refuses to admit it."Blue Fox's words are taken for granted. The words themselves are also neutral, and the boy doesn't bother to care about what blue fox he believes.Eskil felt that he had offended this distinguished guest: "I have no intentions. You are going back to Rose in the fall, and I will go with you this time. I want to meet Rurik myself, and I want to give Regravs personally. Wash. I also know that Mercia is in chaos and that the child is indeed the orthodox heir to the throne. I will also choose an opportunity to take him to Rome to officially obtain the throne..." Eskil speaks a lot in the Danish dialect of Nosse, and he doesn't care what the blue fox said. Blue Fox heard that the old boy was planning to go to Ross again, and everything would be explained to the lord face to face. Well, it's better than reporting on the job yourself. In the end, Blue Fox did not tell Eskil his own answer. On the contrary, he was very interested in the Frankish monastery, so he visited the worship hall, confessional, baptismal room and so on. I have to say that this experience has a strange feeling for the blue fox. The most peculiar thing is that he can't see any statues of gods. There is only a unique wood carving that describes a man nailed to a cross.Since the blue fox is interested, Eskil also intends to introduce more.The monastery lacks gold and silver utensils. The Frankish monks and monks all live in a bitter way and wear extremely simple clothes, and their bedrooms are also extremely monotonous. Believe in their gods to live a hard life? Who wants to believe this. However, if their gods can avoid disasters and bring good luck, just believe them. Blue Fox meets with his armed guards waiting outdoors, and casually describes his experience to his brothers. Someone asked why the John Invall did not come out.Blue Fox's explanation immediately caused everyone to laugh: That guy likes the monk, just like the wife likes her husband. That guy has a brain problem, and he will serve the old guy... Do men still like men? Even the friendliest comrade-in-arms will not go further. Blue Fox and his guys don't understand, naturally that guy John thinks that is happy, so let him go. Blue Fox has its own way of rewarding the brothers. This leads them to find women happy. There are several happy places in Hezebi, and the owners of those facilities are also friends of the "commercial guild." If you are happy, you can talk to the old man about trade, because they are also in the leather business. John Invall stayed in the monastery. This was his home once, but it has changed a lot after not seeing it for more than two years. Here is familiar and unfamiliar, and the unchanging nature is Eskil's attitude towards himself.He came back naturally with a little Rose's specialty, added a little honey and soap made of chrysanthemum water, after he took a bath, the whole body exuded a strange fragrance. The fragrance is believed to have sacred power. After John Invar has been to the north for many years, his whole person has become sacred? "Wow! You are like an angel." Eskil welcomes his students and his "love", and John Invall is as obedient as ever. Eskil got a catharsis after a long time, and listened to John's more detailed report. John said very detailed and very rough, some general but key information attracted Eskil's attention. The Ross people emigrated to the east on a large scale, and there can be a place of prosperity. The Normans love war, slaughter, and plunder. This has always been criticized by Eskil. It is incredible that Rurik, the Prince of Ross, led his tribe to grow wheat on the farmland.If the Ross people stop using violence and become docile farmers, they might be able to live in the East...The more I think about it, the more Eskil feels that going to the east to meet Rose who has immigrated is more meaningful than expanding his followers in northern Sweden. Because John Invale described it very clearly, Prince Ross personally approved the construction of a small monastery. The beautiful young man Rurik was never repulsive, so he had a huge opportunity. Before, John Invar was not a pastor. Now Eskil is drafting a document. He has officially appointed John as a pastor and is qualified to be a true missionary, but he still needs to go through a legal process.In the north of Frankish, the Archbishop of Reims administers all the northern diocese of the kingdom, and all priests confessing their destiny need to be officially certified by Reims. And the archbishops of the Frankish Kingdom and all the archdioceses of Western Europe need to be confessed by the Western Patriarch, the so-called Pope of Rome.This is a very rigorous system, inherited from the Western Roman Empire that has been destroyed, and now the huge Frankish kingdom that has been substantially divided. All the nobles support this system. Therefore, the kingdom is essentially three princes working independently. The aspect of faith remains unified.In this era, they still firmly believe that relying on a mouth and charitable actions can influence others. Eskil has never used any force in the past few decades, let alone dare not use any force. By coincidence, there is indeed no external force that really wants it. His fate.Liurik's house arrest had been considered crude before, and of course Eskil's actions were uncharacteristically radical. He has already learned how to stay in Hazeby, Denmark, in this unowned city, for fear that radical missionary behavior may cause some influence. Five days later, John Invale returned to the Ross shop, his appearance in a black robe and a black cap was almost unrecognizable. The armed guards were all laughing, carefully observing whether the boy was limping on foot, let alone, there was a little bit of it, and immediately laughed again. John Invall didn't know what these guys were laughing at. He came back today just to report something to the blue fox. The most important thing is that the teacher decided to go to Fort Shilla in the east in the fall. Eskil still has a lot of thoughts, so there is no need to tell the big merchant Blue Fox. These days, Blue Fox doesn't care about John Invall's personal safety at all. Even if he wants to come to Eskil, he won't hurt his baby. In the past few days, Blue Fox attended the meeting. In a long house by the sea, thirty rich businessmen from the whole city gathered together. A pair of wolf-like eyes staring at the blue fox, this little fat man is the turning point of attention.Because this kid brought too many Ross squirrel skins, and the price was so comfortable, everyone was rushing to buy them. Guys are not short of money, and a lot of silver coins are sent to the Ross store, but no matter how much leather is, conflicts and disputes will inevitably occur. Blue Fox is already the president of this loose merchant's guild in a sense, but in fact "chairman" is just a very imaginary title, and only interests are the most important.He preached at a lively meeting: "We are all businessmen, and we will always cooperate for the benefit. It would be too bad if we fight with each other. All contradictory points are that you want more leather, and I bring The amount of leather still cannot meet your needs. Maybe we should discuss a distribution principle."Blue Fox has no worries about the sale of leather, because he and the old Eric have really understood through the mouths of these fish-and-dragon traders that the leather is not only sent to the Danish market, but a lot of leather will be sent to the Frankish kingdom. Lords, large and small, are buyers! Don't they catch squirrels and ferrets by themselves? Of course, it was also caught, but there are not many small animals in the kingdom, and the receipt of the goods cannot meet the needs of the Frankish nobles. If you want more, you have to invade the land of Mrs. Wenderslavia, and that means war.Because the Frankish merchants will also pursue greater interests, the precious leather from the north can be transported to the south of the kingdom to make a big profit, especially to Greece and Anatolia, where the East Roman nobles and nobles are even the northern leather. Big consumer. How does the low price proposed by the Ross people make Hezer than the businessman feel emotional? That was a full 30,000 pieces of red squirrel skin, which was the leather of the big squirrel that had disappeared in the Frankish territory! Indeed, in the frigid zone of Northeast Europe, the Russ directly used the crossbow to aim and shoot and hunt, coupled with the traditional net bag trap operation, to treat all the small animals in the undeveloped land is to sweep away. Besides, the Ross store is selling pure white polar bear skins this year. If this is sold to the Frankish nobles, one skin can make a fortune!Blue Fox already knows that leather will mainly flow into the Frankish market. It is too far to do business in Frank and it is risky. Now a large group of buyers are rushing to buy it. He and the Prince of Rose can make big money easily and quickly! Blue Fox pioneered the concept of futures in this conference. However, the invention of the concept of "futures" is also a necessity. When economic activity reaches a certain scale, it will begin to appear. All the businessmen announced their financial resources to each other, then compared them one after another, and then tried to say that they would buy it at a certain price. This is the estimated price of various animal leathers after a large amount of leather will enter the Hazeby market next year. This has evolved into the house buying market. All businessmen want to eat the biggest cake, so the price is naturally to propose a higher price to take the most share~www.novelhall.com~ When the blue fox realized that let them toss like this, they could If you grab a big profit, you just let it go. He has a bottom line price, as long as their offer is not lower than this. Blue Fox didn't know anything about the concept of "tulip mania", or all businessmen didn't know or understood this concept, but their group of businessmen had already begun to act.Especially Blue Fox, he started a very advanced action. This year's leather has been divided up by the merchants. Blue Fox signed a brand new agreement with these merchants.

Suddenly he even felt that his seat had surpassed his eldest brother Baihu, and he had also surpassed his father.
