52. The haze first appears

On November 7, 996, the Emperor of the Empire defeated the Grey Goose Headquarters under Rand and set up a bonfire dinner at night to reward all the knights and cavalry.

Rant, who felt sorry for Neil, even roasted two long-wool sheep for Neil's patrol before, and then took Albert, Juya, Roll and Makoto to visit Neil and eat with Neil.

It took me a while to return to the camp.

Before the meal, the barbarians in the Right Camp sang two songs given to them by Rand. The barbarians liked these two songs from Rand's hometown, which eliminated the sense of estrangement between the tribes.

After the barbarians sang, the knights and the demonless men from the Zuoying sang separately. The knights sang a song recently changed by Rand, which was also a military music from Rand's hometown.

The demonless people sang Lant's farewell song.

Looking at the strong atmosphere on the scene, Rand was wondering whether he would adapt a new song to his various leaders.

The dinner in the camp continued, and Rand returned to the tent. There was too much work throughout the afternoon. Rand had not had time to see the detailed reception. As a little money fan, Rand did not want to miss the joy of counting the trophy.

At the same time, Rand still has many things that he doesn't understand, and wants to ask Wendy how many girls he has.

......

After Rand entered Wendy and Frost Wolf's tent, Wendy subconsciously said, "It's true."

Lili knew Wendy’s thoughts and pulled Wendy for a moment, afraid that Wendy would be rude.

"Makoto, do you have a detailed harvest list in the afternoon? Albert was interrupted by the big stone when he reported to me."

"Of course" Makoto immediately gave Lant a piece of paper. Lant swept the list. The biggest wealth of the entire camp is nearly 10 tons of salt and 3 tons of iron ingots, as well as more than 50 sets of iron armor and more than 100 sets of Aber.

The kind of semi-skin and half-iron armor that you wear, and the other nearly 5 cubic meters of wood and 4 cubic meters of stone are also important gains.

According to some demon-free men in charge of the camp, the leader of the Grey Goose has been collecting construction materials and is preparing to use the current camp to build a castle.

In addition, there are almost 500 demon-free people and 30 human demon-bearers in the camp, including 3 junior knights and 6 knight apprentices (excluding 5 girls).

From the leader's tent, Lant found more than 2,000 gold coins, and a complete magic seal box, which contained some magic pattern weapons and magic pattern boards, and nearly 70 magic crystals.

However, the most surprising one is a contract a few years ago, a contract signed between the Imperial Salt Iron and the Grey Goose Tribe. The contract agreed to be represented by the Blue Dragon Family of the Dragon Kingdom and the Grey Goose Tribe every year.

To carry out salt trade, it is specifically stated that the Salt Iron Company will provide standard salt boiling pots and heated magic pattern boards.

The contract also shows that the Grey Goose Tribe delivers salt to the caravan of the Blue Dragon Family four times a year. The delivery volume is made using a special unit of measurement, and the Blue Dragon Family provides the certificate of salt induced by the Blue Dragon Family. The leader of the Grey Goose can use the salt induced by the Salt Iron Department or

Redeem gold coins in major cities in the Dragon Kingdom.

Rand finally found the real secret of the rise of Grey Goose. He had previously been puzzled that inland salt-making industries that combine mining and handicrafts, there is no mature technology, a stable worker group and a mature distribution system, just rely on running.

The barbarians in the Ma Plain cannot obtain enough income.

In this case, how did Grey Goose support such an industry as a group of barbarians without technology, workers, and caravans?

It turns out that Grey Goose is just a big family with mines at home. The one who is actually responsible for mining is the human race, the one who is responsible for technical support is the human race, and the one who is responsible for distribution is the human race.

After the human race mined and sold it, the gray geese were given a share of the share. The gray geese used this share as the start-up capital and grain fund for the black scale horse trade on the galloping horse plain. Through monopoly on the black scale horse trade with the dragon kingdom and even the iron armor trade.

, earned greater profits, thus bribing various tribes in the southern part of the Racing Horse Plain.

In this way, perhaps the Salt Iron and the Blue Dragon family are the biggest supporters of the Grey Goose's journey south.

However, the Imperial Salt and Iron Department is one of the core departments of the empire. The Blue Dragon Family is the National Pillar Family of the Dragon Kingdom with the legendary duke. Both of them have legends as their support. I am afraid that the Lant would not be able to do that, even if he arrived,

It is impossible for the royal capital or the imperial capital to sue the emperor. At most, it is to take advantage of the fact that the gray geese are committed to death and replace them with the name of the galloping horse tribe to become the owner of the salt mine. They will take the old path of the gray geese tribe and exchange salt for food.

Exchange black scale horses for gold coins.

But Rand still didn't know that since the Grey Goose tribe has become a mining tycoon from a nomadic tribe, what's the need to start a war lightly? Are he unhappy to sit at home and watch the slaves mine for him?

"Sir Lant, do you want to see our general account?" Rant's thoughts gradually drifted away, and Makoto didn't know what he was thinking.

"Ah, oh, no need, just have a rough number."

"So, I want to know, have your priest teacher told you why the Grey Goose Tribe went south earlier this year?"

Wendy looked at the girl beside her, "The teacher said, Lord Head Goose obeyed the instigation of the Palace Front Office."

"Tianqianshi?" This was the first time Rand heard this term.

"Dianqin!" But Makoto had a deep impression of the Dianqin. In the eyes of the nobles, the Dianqin was a group of people who could not be promoted to legends, and they were thrust into the gang that was trying to seize the property and resources of the great nobles every day.

The gang aims to destroy the noble traditions.

After listening to Zhenqin's evaluation, Lant compared the hall in front of the hall to the secret agency controlled by the emperor's eunuch in his hometown, which was a tool to maintain imperial power.

But Rand didn't quite understand. If the emperor himself was a god, then his power would be his own. Why do you still need the secret service to maintain the imperial power? Isn't it good to split lightning in person?

Wendy told Rand that before the leader of the Grey Goose set out, he had already confirmed that the galloping baron and Viscount Roth must not be able to stop him. The Maned Wolf Earl will only stand by and watch when Roth is attacked, and even the Maned Wolf

The Count himself fought against the gray goose, and the other great nobles of the dragon didn't care.

Rand did not expect that there was another force that could grasp the contradictions between the nobles so well, and could weaken the nobles with precise plans and meticulous actions.

Rand guessed that the front office of the palace might have fallen in love with the current Running Horse Plain, otherwise he would not have taken the blame to incite the barbarians to invade the human race.

Since the Palace Qianshi has already taken a fancy to the Racing Horse Plain, he will definitely be able to play against himself in the future. If Rand does not want to be crushed by this powerful force, the best way is to unify the entire Racing Horse Plain and completely block external forces.

Outside the area.

Lant, who was interested, chatted with Wendy and the girls, and asked why they were sold here.

Rand knows that female demon-bearers are even rarer in the Dragon Kingdom. Whether it is a noble or a civilian, once a girl in the family stimulates her blood, she will be reported to the higher nobles as an important political achievement by the local lord.

Finally, the royal capital Longya City will gather these girls and send them to Longya City or the magic schools in several duke cities for concentrated study.

These girls usually end up becoming daughters-in-laws of big families, so Rand doesn't understand why they were sold here.

"A noble girl said I seduced her fiancé," Wendy said lightly, the 14-year-old had a certain maturity on her face.

"Oh" Rand had no interest in gossip in the Dragon King. After he arrived in this world, the names of the knights around him had made him unable to remember them. He did not want to remember those who could not meet for hundreds of years.

The other girls had similar experiences. After entering the Wangdu School, they were pursued by some great noble children, but they did not get the plot of the heroine. They were expelled from the school under various names by the jealous noble girls and then trafficked here.

"Since witch-bearing girls is not common in dragons, why sell them here?" Rant did not understand the values ​​of dragon nobles.

“It is because it is rare that one has to find a way to exile.

Murdering the demon-bearer is a serious crime. Gods can find the murderer after the believer dies and impose curses. The judicial department can also find him to convict him directly. Therefore, no matter how much hatred arises among the demon-bearer, he cannot kill him.

Female demon-bearers are even rarer and cannot be killed. They are likely to rely on large families to retaliate in the future, so many families will sell the losers in the family struggle to the galloping horse plain.

On the one hand, there is less resentment when he is not killed. On the other hand, there is magic turbulence on the plain of galloping horses, which will block communication between God and believers."

Makoto knows the nobles of the dragon very well. Although she was plundered here at a young age, she has been paying attention to the dragon kingdom.

"No wonder" Rand finally knew why Viscount Rot had to use the Grey Goose Tribe to kill him. Viscount Rot didn't know that he was actually an atheist, otherwise Rot would have taken the troubles himself.

"Our Horse Racing Territory will be your home in the future. There are basically no female demon-bearers in the camp, nor are there any mages or priests who can teach you, but I believe this situation will soon change. You guys have these days

Now I stay in my core tent, and in a few days I will find a way to let you go to and from the camp freely.”

"Yes, sir," the girls replied.

"You guys have a break early," Rand said casually and left the tent.

Wendy looked at the girls beside her in wonder, but she didn't expect Rand to leave like this.

"I'll just say it." Makoto probably knows the thoughts of a few girls, "Lord Lant is not the lords you met. He has great ambitions and noble character, and will not touch a little girl like you.

.”

In fact, Rand does not think that he has grand ambitions and noble character. He is just as a person who is about to hold a wedding before traveling through time. He can still dream of his fiancée from time to time, dreaming of his first blind date when he met her.

Various scenes.

Rant didn't know when he would truly integrate into this world, but now, he still couldn't bear the memories of the past.
