Chapter 1995: Chapter 666: The Arrival of the Merchant Guild, Trading Resources
Hilton and Jes nodded seriously,
then quickly stepped forward to count, finally arriving at an astounding number.
That is, there are 21 barrels of Cloud Yak Milk here, equivalent to 2100 liters!
According to the previous purchase price: 9500 Crowns per liter, the milk here is worth nearly twenty million Crowns.
In addition, there are 174 barrels of Refined Rum, equivalent to 17400 liters.
According to the previous purchase price of 4000 Crowns per liter, the rum here is worth 69.6 million!
Aside from that, there is the most precious ’Illusion Dream Demon Wine’.
As Golden Quality Magic Wine, there are only 16 barrels here, equivalent to 1600 liters.
But its value is the most astounding, a whopping eighty thousand Crowns per liter.
All of this Magic Wine combined equals 128 million Crowns.
Hilton and Jes exchanged glances and swallowed hard.
"Lord Cao Xing... the value of these supplies is truly astonishing!"
Hilton was better off since this batch of milk was only worth twenty million.
Though still astounding, Black Lion Commerce’s scale could easily handle it.
But that batch of liquor is terrifying, totaling nearly two hundred million Crowns in value.
Cao Xing smiled gently and said, "Yes, to be fair, I intend to hand over that hundred-plus barrels of Cloud Yak Milk and Refined Rum to Woodpecker Commerce."
"Your commerce’s headquarters is in Merlin City, not too far from my territory, making transportation convenient."
"As for the 16 barrels of Illusion Dream Demon Wine, all will go to Black Lion Commerce."
"What do you think?"
Upon hearing Cao Xing’s decision, the two merchants felt a bit regretful but understood this was the most reasonable distribution.
Even though they wished to take it all, they couldn’t show such greed before Cao Xing.
Thus, they nodded in agreement.
Cao Xing said with a smile, "Then let’s proceed with the trading now. The Cloud Yak Milk and Rum total 90.6 million Crowns."
"The Illusion Dream Demon Wine is 128 million Crowns."
"How do you two plan to pay?"
Hearing this, an embarrassed expression appeared on Hilton’s face.
He replied with some difficulty, "Lord Cao Xing, I didn’t bring enough Crowns on this trip..."
Jes also awkwardly added, "I didn’t either; I didn’t bring enough funds this time..."
Cao Xing paused for a moment, then chuckled and shook his head, "No worries, you can take the supplies with you for sale."
"Consider it offsetting the payment for that batch of food."
"I’ll make up the price difference later."
"I’m out of money myself now..."
Indeed, Cao Xing was also broke now.
Previously, he elevated over a thousand warriors to Master Level, consuming billions of Crowns.
Purchasing those Crystal People, he spent over a hundred million Crowns.
All accumulated resources were fully consumed.
Now, there’s only more than thirty million Crowns in hand, not enough to pay for the food.
Jes and Hilton smiled knowingly, "Understood, Lord Cao Xing, we’ll return to sell the goods."
"And then quickly bring back more food for you; just wait here for our good news!"
Cao Xing nodded slightly, "Alright, thank you both."
After discussing the trade terms, Cao Xing instructed them to load all the goods onto their convoys.
Soon, the carts of both convoys were packed full.
Hilton and Jes, seeing the goods loaded, bid farewell to Cao Xing, preparing to leave with their men.
At this moment, Cao Xing seemed to remember something, suddenly speaking, "Oh, wait a moment."
The two stopped in confusion, turning back to him.
Cao Xing said, "The value of the goods you’re transporting is astonishing, plus the journey is long. Just relying on your guards is a bit unsafe."
"I’ll assign a batch of warriors to you."
With that, he pressed his ear communication device and instructed, "Yaskin, assign 20 Ascalon Soldiers to meet me at the buffer zone."
Through the device came the earnest reply of the captain, "Yes, Lord."
Soon, two teams of Fine Equipment Ascalon Soldiers, all at Level 70, arrived neatly beside Cao Xing.
They respectfully said, "Lord, please give your orders."
Cao Xing nodded slightly, "Next, you will divide into ten-person groups, specifically to protect Hilton and Jes’s convoys."
"Recently, there should be no issues in the territory; later they will transport large amounts of supplies back to our territory."
"You will be in charge of convoy safety, ensuring the safe arrival of the goods."
The twenty Ascalon Soldiers responded in unison, "Yes, Lord!"
Then, they quickly divided into two groups, each moving to the sides of Hilton and Jes’s convoys.
At this moment, the two merchants were already deeply shaken!
Because they could clearly sense the terrifying Power contained within these soldiers.
Any one of them could easily obliterate their entire commerce.
After all, under Cao Xing’s command, the entire force is Master Level, with real War Power unrivaled beneath Legendary status, not a joke!
Any soldier could easily destroy an army of a hundred thousand!
The two also realized that with these soldiers, they could easily go to Gale Snow Plain, and several neighboring Kingdoms!
On the road, they no longer had to worry about bandits and robbers.
Hilton and Jes solemnly saluted, "Thank you, Lord Cao Xing!"
Cao Xing waved his hand casually, "It’s nothing, while the weather is still early, hurry and set off."
"Okay!"
With that, the two convoys left the territory with a large amount of supplies.
