Chapter 224: Poaching
North Wind City, city gate.
Unlike other cities in the Northern Territory, the city gates of Beifeng City are not directly made of wood. Instead, they are made of the hardest black-grained wood in the Northern Territory, and are also wrapped with a thick outer layer. Iron sheet, Li Si could even see a variety of magic patterns for reinforcement on the city gate.
This city gate alone, even a gold-level powerhouse cannot hope to break through in a short time.
Today is the day when the Fes Chamber of Commerce has finished repairing and continues to set off. Winter in the north has gradually arrived, and the chill in the bleak north wind cannot stop creeping into the seams of clothes.
Roque knew that time was very tight and the caravan had to return to the south when the first snow fell.
“Lord Li Si.”
The people in the caravan already knew Li Si's identity, so Luo Kui no longer concealed it, stood next to Li Si and said respectfully:
"What's up?"
Li Si, who had a good rest yesterday, was very energetic and was currently sitting on the carriage sorting out the harvest in the ring.
Ur has a lot of treasures in his hands, especially since he exchanged most of his wealth for magical metals and gems.
It should also be prepared for the Kingdom of Dillon, specially purchased and collected from the Kingdom of Fes, but now they have all become Li Si's harvest.
Mithril, gold essence, red copper.
There are three magic crystals and gemstones of various colors, even high-grade gemstones that are not inferior to the azure gemstone in Li Si's hand.
These precious magic materials are much more valuable to Li Si than simple gold coins.
“Count Solo's butler just came over and asked me when I would set out, saying that Count Solo might come over.”
Luo Kui said that he naturally couldn't afford to offend these two big guys, and he had the consciousness to be a microphone honestly.
"I see."
Li Si nodded. After his reminder, Count Solo should have been aware of the invasion of the Kingdom of Dillon in advance. Presumably the situation faced by the Kingdom of Fes this time will be much better than in the previous life.
As for whether to tell this information to other nobles in the northern part of the kingdom, that is not something Li Si needs to consider.
As a confidant of King Morton, Ender will definitely report everything to the king. As for the appropriateness, it will be a headache for those in power.
You must know that after the invasion war of the Kingdom of Dillon was repelled in the previous life, many of the territories of the feudal nobles in the northern part of the kingdom were captured by the royal family.
It didn't take long for a while, only a sound of horseshoe approached, and Li Si saw Ande, wearing a silver -white ambitious armor, and a group of soldiers rolled in Jianma.
“Lee Si!”
Ender pulled the reins and jumped down before the horse stopped, standing in front of Li Si.
Li Si also got off the carriage and looked at Count Solo, who was not as athletic as he was in his sixties.
However, judging from his lifespan as a senior warrior monk, he is indeed still in his prime now.
“Ender, you look like you are ready to take action?”
Li Si looked at Ander, who was wearing a military uniform, and asked with a smile.
Yesterday when the two met, they were both dressed in noble attire. At this time, one was wearing armor and the other was wearing adventurer's clothes. It was impossible to tell that they were two nobles.
"I have received permission from His Majesty the King. This time I will clear up the Hansong Chamber of Commerce's strongholds in other noble territories in the north."
“That was not easy. I didn't expect that I would cause you a lot of trouble.”
“Oh, my dear Li Si, I wish there were more troubles like this!”
Ander laughed when he heard this and patted Li Si on the shoulder.
Finally, Ender got close to Lisi's body and whispered:
“After I reported this matter to His Majesty the King yesterday using a magic communication tool, His Majesty also specifically asked me to bring you greetings.”
“Tell me that you are looking forward to the day when you return to Bright Light City.”
Ander said with a smile, he could naturally feel King Morton's favor for Li Si.
"It's my honor." "Then I won't waste any time. I'll go ahead and wish you a smooth journey."
Ander was also very neat and tidy. After conveying the king's intention in place, he got on his horse and galloped away with the soldiers.
Li Si did not stay any longer, he still wanted to continue his journey.
“Roquet.”
“Lord Li Si, I'm here.”
"If I remember correctly, the next city is the city of Raya Viscounty."
“Yes, Lord Li Si.”
Luo Kui nodded and said respectfully:
“But it still takes ten days to travel to the Viscounty of Raya.”
The further north you go, the wider the distance between the various noble territories, and there are often autonomous cities and no-man's land between the territories.
“I will be separated from the caravan when I get there, and I need your help with some things.”
Li Si said calmly:
“The two ladies on my carriage plan to go to Bright Light City and return with the caravan. This can be regarded as my promise to them.”
“Don't worry, I will ensure the safety of the two ladies!”
Luo Kui quickly agreed. This was not a big deal.
“You know I established a new chamber of commerce in Bright City!”
Li Si turned to look at Luo Kui, with a smile on his face.
Luo Kui was silent for a moment and nodded.
The name of White Pigeon Chamber of Commerce may be unfamiliar to ordinary people in Bright City, but it is certainly nothing new to Luo Kui, who is a member of the chamber of commerce industry.
“Are you interested in joining the Baige Chamber of Commerce?”
Li Si smiled and issued an application for poaching.
Having traveled with the Fez caravan for so long, he naturally saw Roque's abilities.
Shrewd and capable, calm and patient, years of work have honed his vision and consciousness. He is neither humble nor arrogant in front of Li Si, showing enough respect without being too flattering.
Luo Kui is indeed a talent. If he had not been from an ordinary background, he would have been able to climb to a higher position long ago.
Li Si didn't just do it on the spur of the moment. The White Pigeon Chamber of Commerce's big structure, Mora, has already been set up. But after all, the White Pigeon Chamber of Commerce cannot just stay in Bright Light City. The operation of chambers of commerce in other places and the construction of caravans require enough manpower. Maura also realized this situation with herself.
So after Li Si considered it, he felt that Luo Kui was capable enough to take on this task.
As for his own wishes.
“I do, Lord Li Si!”
Luo Kui only hesitated for a moment and immediately accepted the olive branch offered by Li Si.
At the Fes Chamber of Commerce, he didn't know how long it would take to climb to a higher position, but it was different with the White Pigeon Chamber of Commerce.
The newly established Chamber of Commerce is the most precious opportunity for Luo Kui.
Anyone with a discerning eye in Bright Light City can see that the White Pigeon Chamber of Commerce is the newly rising Marquis Kane who is forming his own force. This is the best opportunity to join.
Let alone the invitation from Li Si, the owner of the Chamber of Commerce!
This is a once-in-lifetime opportunity, and Luo Kui will not let it go.
"good."
Li Si appreciates Luo Kui's decisiveness and his ambition to climb up. Having this ability is the most important thing.
Li Si is confident that he can suppress everyone under his command.
