The water supply system built a large reservoir outside the city, and the water drawn from the Hongsha River cannot be directly drunk, although the river water is clear in this era, many people drink river water directly.

If there are animal corpses upstream, the drinking water in the entire city will be threatened. One of the purposes of Sulun's establishment of a reservoir is to disinfect.

The reservoir will be covered with pebbles, fine sand, charcoal, etc. to filter river water. Of course, these can only filter debris in the water. Sulun also prepared fine nets made of sterling silver. After filtering through the previous few processes, the water source can be disinfected. After several processes, the water source can be safe.

It took a long time to complete the construction of the water supply system. Just as the water supply facilities were being built, the caravan that came to buy sugar from Carter City arrived.

.....

After Gene left, Carrent City.

Fernand is the head of the Flamingo Chamber of Commerce sent to Zhenbeibao caravan, and is also the largest of the eight chambers of commerce that came here with them. The Skylark Chamber of commerce, which has cooperated with Zhenbeibao, is also among them. However, the Skylark Chamber of commerce is only ranked fourth among these eight chambers of commerce.

In addition to Robert of the Skylark Chamber of Commerce, there is also an old acquaintance of Su Lun among these chambers, Irving, the manager of the Bauhinia Caravan. It is the fat man who was cheated by Su Lun last time.

When he ran here to poach, he didn't want to pay any price, but he was cheated by Sulun and the barbarian warriors. Unexpectedly, he dared to trade this time. Of course, Sulun would not deliberately cheat him again. He needed the prosperity of Zhenbei Castle, and it would be better to do less tricks like cheating people. Of course, if someone thinks Sulun is easy to bully, then he doesn't mind playing with these people.

"Mr. Fernande, I think we should form an alliance to monopolize the sugar trade here together."

"Yes, I think so too. As long as we can monopolize the sugar trade here, the profits we make every year can easily double."

"I agree too." The other caravan managers agreed that they had completely used the sugar from Zhenbeibao as their bag.

"Since everyone agrees to monopolize the sugar trade, we need to divide some shares now." Fernande nodded and said.

Then Fernande looked around at the heads of the other seven chambers of commerce, and then said without hesitation, "I want 20% of the sugar share, and you can negotiate the remaining 80% yourself!"

The other seven chambers of commerce had no objection to this, obviously this was normal. Next, the seven chambers of commerce began to negotiate and argue for a little more share, and the whole scene became extremely hot. Fernande sat aside without interrupting, but instead took out a pair of exquisite small scissors and trimmed his nails carefully.

It was not until these chambers of commerce managers determined the share that they began to speak: "Since the share has been agreed, then let's determine the purchase price."

"Robert, what was the price of the last time you bought it?"

"Fifty jinnal per pound."

"This price is too expensive, we should let him lower the price!" As soon as Robert finished speaking, Irving next to him couldn't wait to say.

"Yes, the price reduction, I think it can only be accepted by at least 30 hardware nals." Another caravan manager also agreed.

"You think about the problem too simply. In order to get a high price, he is likely to be auctioned." Robert knew Chris' difficulty and poured it on cold water.

"So what? Let's discuss the price and don't shout it out if you exceed this price."

"Yes, that's it."

A group of people agreed.

"What if he doesn't want to sell it?" said one of them suddenly.

"It's very simple. If he dares to refuse the deal, let him see. I think he will agree with the power of our eight chambers of commerce." Others laughed. As the eight largest chambers of commerce in Carter City, they control more than 60% of the trade in Carter City, and they are qualified to say this.

After the group of people agreed on the matter, they held another small banquet before preparing for the caravan to go to Zhenbeibao.

......

Su Lun didn't know that the eight chambers of commerce had already discussed monopolizing the sugar trade, so of course he wouldn't care even if he knew it. In his opinion, the alliance of these people was not reliable at all. It only required a small external force, and the alliance would fall apart.

When the eight caravans came to Zhenbei Fort. Except for Robert, several other caravans were shocked by Zhenbei Fort. In their thoughts, this small territory located in the northern wasteland should be inferior to those in the northern countryside.

As a result, after coming here, I found that although the town is small, it is extremely clean and tidy. The roads are paved with stones, there are drainage ditches on both sides of the road, and there is no smell of feces fermenting in the air. All the houses are arranged neatly, and they look a different kind of beauty.

Everyone was told the rules here before entering the town. The first time I heard such cumbersome rules, many caravan guards and mercenaries found it difficult to accept. That city even requires the right walking? What is your small ruined town?

As a result, after the two barbarian giant axe warriors directly took action to teach the restless mercenaries a lesson, all the caravans agreed. There was nothing they could do if they didn't agree. Who would have thought that the two barbarian warriors actually killed most of a caravan dozens of guards and mercenaries.

After knowing the force of Zhenbeibao, even the caravans were honest. After a war of excuses, the caravans were arranged in the trading market.

Su Lun was not very interested in the arrival of the caravan. He is now busy building water supply canals. The water supply canals brought from the river are gradually reduced. The starting point of the canal by the river is about half a meter lower than the end point of the reservoir. Moreover, the closer it is to the town, the higher the ground, the less work the water supply canal, and the faster the construction speed.

After releasing the mud into stone for this water supply channel, Sulun rode a black-maned horse to the tavern. During this period, he would sit in the tavern for a while every day. After all, the attributes of the tavern are not mentioned. Is there a chance to attract some heroes to come here? He is just going to come to the tavern to try his luck, and if he meets a hero, he will make a profit.

After arriving at the tavern, Sulun found that the tavern today was very lively. The tavern that could accommodate eighty or ninety people was already full. Fortunately, the bar is a three-story building and there are many empty spaces on the second floor.

Sulun ordered a glass of rum, then found a corner and began to observe the guests in the tavern. What disappointed him was that although there were many people coming in the tavern today, these people were all mercenaries, and they did not notice any special people coming.
