Chen Mo followed the convoy and looked at the huge city standing on the hill from a distance.

The tall and majestic city walls fill the hearts of the people living here with a sense of solid security.

The wall is made of solid schist blocks that are abundant in the local area. It is said that when the city was first built, it relied on the huge stones originally scattered in this hilly area to build such a magnificent city wall.

Chen Mo followed the convoy into Sunuo through the tall city gate.

Sunuo's city gate is the structure of Weng City. It has two doors. When the first door is destroyed by the opposite tower (rushing car), it can block the second city gate and shoot arrows downwards from the sky mouth in Weng City.

, throwing stones and kerosene to destroy the opposite building (rushing the car).

The soldiers guarding the city gate confirmed their identity with Mark, who was in charge of talking to the convoy.

The soldier guarding the gate and Mark were old acquaintances. Mark was usually quite generous, and the soldier didn't find Mark deliberately delaying and knocking on the bamboo pole, and quickly let him go.

If the leader of the convoy outside is old David, then the leader of the "Sunuo" team is Mark.

At dawn, all the clouds in the sky had dispersed, and Chen Mo could still vaguely see the rising sun on the road.

The motorcade followed Mark. It was almost noon and there were quite a lot of people on the street. Mark deliberately led the motorcade on a route with fewer people.

After some twists and turns, we came to a large warehouse.

There were two low chairs placed next to the large warehouse, facing each other. A fat man with a businessman's air was sitting on one chair, while the other low chair was empty.

The fat man squinted his eyes, as if thinking about what was profitable for him. Behind him stood a group of bored and yawning strong men.

The fat man who was sitting on a low chair and squinting his eyes lit up when he saw Mark leading the convoy. He immediately said enthusiastically: "Yo! Mark...I thought you were here now."

Something unexpected happened on the road~"

Mark, who was also a little overweight, unceremoniously pulled back the low chair and sat on it unceremoniously.

After just this action, Chen Mo felt that Mark, who had been hiding behind everyone and shivering when the convoy encountered bandits, had changed.

Mark, who was originally harmless, exuded an indescribable aura, which was in stark contrast to the fat man sitting on the low chair.

At this moment, Chen Mo felt that the two people sitting on the low chairs were like soldiers on their own battlefield.

Chen Mo was not stupid. He followed Old David without hesitation and stood behind Mark. He seemed to be in tit-for-tat with the group of strong men behind the fat man.

The people in Chen Mo's old David's team had the same role as the group of strong men behind the fat man, supporting their own negotiators.

After Mark sat down, the slightly fat man took the lead: "Mark... the convoy came so much later than usual today, which caused a lot of dinars to our UIC as a whole. You have to compensate us! We have to

There aren’t many, so the selling price of this batch of iron ingots is just 10% lower than last time.”

Mark saw that the fat man took the lead in launching the offensive, so he quickly and loudly retorted: "Is this because we encountered bandits, so we arrived late?"

Mark turned his head to look at the injured person in the team as if to confirm something. Of course, he didn't want to see it for himself, but for his opponent to see it.

Then he continued: "Badr, there are more and more bandits and bandits now, and the iron ingots are not in good luck. This time, many people were injured in order to deliver the iron ingots to Sunuolai.

A brother went to heaven."

Mark paused, seeming to be mourning.

Then he said: "So the transportation cost has increased, and the iron ingots have to be sold more expensively, which is only a 20% increase from last time..."

Badr, who was slightly fat, saw Mark talking nonsense and got involved in raising the price.

So he said: "It seems that the Nords in the north are about to be driven back by our great King Haraus, and the war is about to end."

Mark saw that the cunning Badr did not accept the move and launched a new offensive, so he responded: "It seems that the traitorous Rhodok people in the south have some evil intentions and are targeting Fort Wincod."

Bader choked for a moment, as if he didn't expect that Mark would still be so well-informed while staying at "Vida", and then he cursed with a stern face: "All bandits and bandits should die!"

Mark also agreed: "The bandits and bandits should all die."

It seems that because the two have temporarily reached a consensus, their tit-for-tat momentum has relaxed a lot.

"It is impossible to increase the selling price by 20%. Not only do we not agree, but the blacksmith who made it will not agree, nor will the soldiers and farmers who bought it." Badr said with righteous indignation, shaking his body.

"Besides, you arrived later than usual, so you should give us some compensation." Badr added.

After hearing what Bader said, Mark believed that he had heard something insulting and shouted: "Compensation is impossible. Besides, we just often arrived in the middle of the night before. There is no requirement that we must arrive in the middle of the night. There is no compensation."

It’s just nonsense!”

"If the price rises too much, what will happen if people who buy ironware don't buy it?" Badr said pretending to be pitiful.

Mark cursed: "Old Qiu's ghost place! (Swearing words) The price is set by you."

Badr, who sat opposite Mark, was not a simple person either.

It was he who brought together most of the loose blacksmiths in Sunuo and established the Iron Alliance. He unified the pricing of the standard weapons made by the blacksmiths.

This series of actions forced Sunuo and those around him who only needed iron tools to buy them from the Iron Alliance at high prices.

Although Badr's move made many people hate him, they were unwilling to offend him, lest the other party would make things difficult for him in future iron trades.

Even the owner of "Suno" - Kragsboye, a rebel general who defected from the Kingdom of Wikia, relied on his bravery and loyalty to King Haraus to surpass many local nobles and let the heavy city "

Sunuo" became his fief. Such a legendary lord also spoke softly and kindly to Balder.

I heard that Badr bribed Kragsboye with a lot of dinars and high-quality weapons and armor. In any case, the fact that he was able to successfully bribe him shows his ability.

As "Vida" possesses a large amount of iron ore reserves, he is one of the few people who has the qualifications to talk to the Suno Iron Alliance on an equal footing.

This qualification is not due to how powerful "Vida" is, but because "Vida" has iron ore and is the largest supplier of raw materials to "Suno" and the Iron Alliance.

The Iron Alliance is very powerful, but without "Vida" to supply iron, the Iron Alliance's power based on blacksmiths will definitely be severely damaged.

But the same Iron Alliance is the largest iron ingot dumper of "Vida". If the Iron Alliance does not sell iron, then "Vida" will also decline.

Therefore, the Iron Alliance and "Vida" can win-win if they unite, and lose both if they separate.

When Mark said that the "Vida" convoy had encountered robbers again, Badr's heart was actually twitched, but it was hidden by his round face.

Even though Balder, the soul of the Iron Alliance, and Vader's second-in-command talk so tit-for-tat, in fact both of them know that neither of them can live without the other.

The two people's quarrel was just to allow their own forces to gain more benefits from it.

After that, the two argued for a long time, and the two groups of people who were originally supporting the two yawned before they finally reached an agreement.

The negotiation between the two ended with Badr throwing his chair and leaving.
