Become the city lord from today

In the sea outside Lingu City, Duke Linard stood on the board of the ship, his face gloomy and terrifying.

He had just returned to the ship not long ago. He had stayed in Lingu City for the past two days.

"Huh... as expected." Duke Leonard said in a deep voice.

He has been asking to see the two princes for the past two days, but he was put off by being unwell and having to deal with the knight's dispute.

The purpose of asking for a meeting was to let the two princes let him go. The merchant ship landed and repaired

"Sir, our ships have not docked for two and a half months. The bottoms of some old ships are already leaking, and they may sink at any time."A businessman said worriedly.

Duke Linard turned his head and looked at the port, waved his hand and said,"Let me think about it, you go down first and calm their emotions."

"yes."The businessman nodded.

Duke Linard went out to sea this time with ten merchant ships and more than 200 knights. Since the king of the Han Dynasty promised to let them dock in Lingu City in turn, all the knights and fleets that can land are two princes. The merchants under the two men had no chance to land for repairs.

Duke Leonard understood that the two princes were interested in his gold coins. After all, the two princes had just given the king of the Han Dynasty 100,000 gold coins, and they owed another 100,000 gold coins. Tens of thousands of gold coins are owed.

But how could he be willing? The gold coins brought by the merchant ship are used to buy goods. Those linen, wine, and perfume all cost a lot of money to buy.

"Sir, should we go to Haiyan City to land?"Zac suggested.

He is the leader of the merchant ship under Duke Linard. He is a rat orc and is very smart and smooth.

Duke Linard frowned and said,"Haiyan City? Haven't we already negotiated?"

"Sir, the two princes and highnesses went to negotiate about their attack on Haiyan City, but we are different."Zac said respectfully

"Yes, we are here to do business."Duke Leonard suddenly realized that they did not participate in the attack on Haiyan City, and their fleet was mainly merchant ships.

From the perspective of purchasing goods, it was different from Prince Nemo and the others. It was not an invasion. Ignorant

"......"Zach didn't speak, and it was only after hearing discussions among the knights on other ships in the past two days that he learned why they were taking turns to land.

He thought for a whole night before he came up with this solution. Although there is no guarantee that it will work, you can always give it a try.

"Take a boat to Haiyan City and give it a try." Duke Leonard ordered

"yes."Zac responded immediately, turned around and went to make arrangements. He wanted to bring a few fellow businessmen with him.

"Wow!......"

Duke Leonard stood on the board of the ship and looked at Zach as he left, and said in a deep voice,"I hope we can land."

As long as he can land successfully, he will have more initiative and can completely separate from the two princes.

After all, the two princes have not passed the throne to them yet.

Perhaps, the king will choose a prince from the empire to succeed him.

And he will earn more gold coins, especially if a large amount of the goods here are shipped back to the empire to sell, then it will be the princes' turn to win over him.

Especially when the Han Dynasty here is so powerful and the country cannot take advantage here and can only talk legally, it is his family's turn to rise.

"snort! From now on, it’s no longer time for me to judge people’s faces."Duke Leonard said coldly, looking at the fleet in the port ahead............

The next day, Zach's boat slowly sailed towards Haiyan City.

Of course, before they even got close to Haiyan City, they were discovered by the mermaid navy.

Zach immediately expressed his intention to come and planned to bribe them with gold coins. The mermaid navy army refused directly and asked them to wait where they were and report back.

"Zach, do you think they're going to let us land?"A businessman asked.

Zach shook his head slightly and said,"I'm not sure about this. Maybe we have to give a lot of gold coins."

"Will it take a lot?"The businessman was worried. If they were to give two hundred thousand pieces like Prince Nemo and others, they wouldn't be able to afford it.

"Probably not, after all we are here to do business."Zac guessed, but he actually had no idea in his heart.

Half an hour passed, and the mermaid and water army swam back to Zac and the others.

"Sir, may we log in?"Zac couldn't wait to ask.

The leader of the mermaid navy said,"Our city lord said that he can meet you."

"Very good."Zac said excitedly

"Wow!......"

Zack, led by the mermaid navy, headed towards the port of Haiyan City.

More than half an hour later, Zach's ship docked at the port. The soldiers conducted a routine inspection and then led him to the castle hall.

"grown ups."Zac and others bowed respectfully.

Niu Da looked at them for a while and said,"Are you businessmen? From the Torola Orc Empire?"

"Sir, we come to visit you this time mainly to purchase goods."Zac said truthfully

"How many goods to buy? How long do you plan to stay in Haiyancheng? Niu Da asked directly.

"this......"Zach was confused by the question, but he had not thought about how much goods to buy. This was not something he could decide.

Niu Da took a sip of tea and continued,"Since you don't have the right to decide, then send someone who can.""

"yes."Zac nodded. He had no choice but to go back and report first.

He took his fellow merchants with him, saluted Niu Da and then left.

"Tap tap tap......"

Zach and others were brought back to the port by the soldiers

"Zach, are we leaving like this?"A businessman said in confusion, thinking that since we are all here, why bother to ask directly.

Zach shook his head lightly and said,"There are many things that we have no way to decide."

It's not so much that I have no choice but that I don't dare. No one knows how many gold coins the Duke is willing to spend to buy goods. The most important point is that Zach is not familiar with the goods in Haiyan City at all.

In addition to food and wine, there are also What? You can’t come all the way here to buy food. It’s already eaten before it reaches the Torola Orc Empire.

"......"The businessmen nodded, and several of them got on the boat and returned to Lingu City.
