Chapter 2 Ella's Trade Journey (6)

"Your Majesty, will we be too rude just now..." Amy whispered beside Ella.

Ella was happy that she had successfully traded the goods of 200 Nomisma. After Amy said this, she replied confidently: "It doesn't matter, didn't you successfully trade the goods just now? In this way, they can know that we are not here to rob! As long as we spread our reputation like this, more and more merchants will come to us to trade!"

...

Freman was sitting on a big rock on the side of the road with his head in his arms. His men were counting the gold coins that had been robbed by the robbers just now and the goods that were forcibly stuffed in.

"Boss, I counted it clearly. It happened to be two hundred Nomisma, not more than one point, not more than one point!"

The group of robbers looked around 500 people. If Fremann's initial plan was to give each robber one hundred fins, he would spend fifty thousand fins, that is, two hundred and fifty nomisma. Then he would spend fifty nomisma less.

"How about those goods?"

"It's true that they are all good fur and honey wine. If it's farther from the north, it should be sold at a good price..."

Freman's voice was crying: "But Lord Freavone specializes in the spice trade! If he knew that we spent 200 Nomisma to enter these completely unrelated goods, we would be scolded!"

"Then...Boss, what should we do?"

Freman suddenly stood up. He walked to the box where the gold coins were placed, took out the gold coins, and stuffed them one by one into his hands.

"Listen, we have not traded with anyone. We were robbed by robbers. All the gold coins were robbed by those bold bandits. There was no Nomisma left. Do you understand?"

"This..." The group of subordinates looked at each other with gold coins, "Boss, is this really okay?"

"There are too many robbers, and we can't do anything about it! In this case, the goods remain, and Lord Freavone would be happy! The next thing is that he hired people to suppress the bandits!"

"Then these goods that were forced to us..."

"Dump it out, bury it, or if you have sales, you can sell it." Freman's voice began to tremble again, but this time it was because of excitement, "Thank you for these robbers, we... are going to get rich."

Soon, a rumor appeared in Hamburg City, saying that a group of vicious bandits appeared nearby. According to the description of the merchants who encountered them, the caravans who were not well transported were stolen all gold coins; the caravans who were better transported were used as sales targets for stolen goods; and the caravans who were extremely poor transported must have become the "stolen goods" in the hands of the robbers and could no longer speak.

But in the Duke of Anglia, Duke Otto, who was anxiously waiting for the arrival of war materials, was Valhalla who ran back in despair.

"What did you say? The supplies were robbed again? Are you sure that was really the 'triumphant' of the pirate kingdom?"

Valhalla nodded desperately. In fact, he was not sure of the identity of the woman at that time, but after throwing away the goods and fleeing back, he could only insist that the woman was the "Triumph" who defeated the "unpredictor".

Duke Otto's brow fell deeply into it: "Stad, Hamburg City, these two places have been attacked one after another. It should be determined that the 'Triumph' has noticed our plan."

An officer said to Duke Otto, "I just received the news that the pirates invading Stad not only did not retreat, but instead built a camp in Stad, with a population of about 500. In addition to the 500 people outside Hamburg, I judged that the total force of the 'Trigger' should be only about 1,000."

Duke Otto fell into deep thought. "Triumph" is the largest force in the Pirate King from the Pirate King. Its status is no less than the four sons of Ragna at the time, and her reputation is even above the "unpredictable" Ragna. If she really launched a military operation against the Allemani Federation, there shouldn't be only one thousand people.

Thinking of this, Duke Otto shook his head: "Don't be blinded by appearances. The 'Triumph' is the second only person in the Pirate Kingdom to rule the Swedish Kingdom. She came to attack the Almany Federation, do you think she might only bring one thousand people?"

The officer was stunned: "What does the Duke mean?"

"I've heard of the 'Trium'' many tricks. The thousand people on the surface are probably just a bait. And we still know nothing about where her large army is stationed. If we attack rashly, we will only fall into the trap and die in vain."

"Then...what should we do?"

"We need to find out where her large army is. In addition, we will send someone to ask our allies for help immediately. If the 'Triumph' has really arrived here, our troops alone are far from enough!"

"But... Lord Duke, if we continue to let the 'Triumph', our route to receiving supplies from Hamburg City will be completely cut off! Without those supplies, we will not be able to carry out any large-scale military operations!"

Duke Otto pondered for a while. Then he looked up, looked at the officer, looked at Valhalla, and asked, "Do you know the village of Brizania?"

It was a small village that planted radishes. Although it was close to the Duke of Anglia, it was one of the territories directly belonging to the Count of Ile de France. Valhalla and the others didn't know why Otto suddenly mentioned this, and nodded in a vain way.

"Do you know that there is a small castle near the village of Brizania, where the Earl of France has stored a lot of supplies?" Duke Otto looked at Valhalla and said, "Valhalla, I will give you a thousand people, and you go and 'carry' those goods here."

"Wait, wait a moment! Lord Duke, aren't you kidding?" Valhalla panicked. He knew that the castle was inland in the Almany Federation far from the border, and not many people were stationed. But it was the Earl of the Ile de France, the current consul of the Almany Federation! How dare the Duke of Otto move?

Duke Oto saw what Valhalla was thinking and chuckled: "It's not me, it's the lord of the Pirate Kingdom who plundered the village of Brizania, found the nearby castle, and robbed these supplies... Do you understand what I mean?"

Valhalla suddenly reacted: "I understand! I will send someone to buy a Toga robe right away!"

Meanwhile, Hamburg City.

The mayor, who was anxious because of the bandits' rebellion, finally waited for the messenger sent to find the Earl of France. Before the messenger could take a breath, the mayor asked anxiously: "Where has the army of the Earl of France?"

The messenger replied hesitantly: "The Earl of France did not bring his troops. However... he asked me to bring a letter saying that after the mayor had read it, he would give it to all the lords nearby!"

"Is it a letter? Is it an order for those lords to lead troops to suppress the bandits? Well, after all, he is the consul of the Almani Federation, and speaking should be of some use. As long as a lord is willing to lead troops to come, he can drive away the thieves in Toga. Where is the letter?"

"When I was rushing back, even the coins on the villain's body were stolen by the group of robbers wearing Toga, and only the villain brought these things back..."

The messenger handed up a few smoked fish with his trembling hands. The mayor's eyes turned dark and he fainted on the ground.

On the other side, Ella was looking around with the letter.

"This group of barbarians from the north have just protected this letter more closely, so why did they treat it as a treasure?... They didn't write it to whom they sent it. Let me see what was written in it."

The letter reads the following passage: "In view of the fact that radishes represent all virtues in the world, especially when cooked, with extremely fine lines; and, given that radishes can cure any known human disease, I, the consul of the Almani, declare that radishes will be used nationwide as currency to replace gold, silver, and any other precious metals. All the above precious metals should be handed over to the consul for disposal."

"Gu...prank?"
