Chapter 777： Help me find something

The captain felt very happy. He had a lot of goods on this ship. Even in the Lost City, it was not easy to sell them all. He didn't expect to be swept away in this new port in an instant.

The cargo of this ship is sold simply and earns a lot of money. You can happily go to the next cargo.

At this time, the foreman on the dock spoke again: "Mr. Captain, I think your warehouse is now empty. Leave the cabin empty. Wouldn’t it feel like a waste? Why not fill a ship with our cargo? Pull it to another place."

The captain was in a good mood: "What special products do you have here?"

The foreman chuckled and said, "We have more special products here. You see, there is a special product exhibition on the side of the pier. If you go in and go around, you will know how many special products of the Kingdom of Granny are. enriched."

After hearing this, the captain really jumped off the ship. He is not afraid of this port anymore. Although the current relationship between the Gran Kingdom and the Norma Kingdom is terrible, it looks like a fight may occur at any time. This port obviously didn't mean the slightest threat to him.

He took a few of his men and walked into the specialty store, and at a glance he saw a beautifully embroidered silk stocking hung on the wall.

"Oh, I know this. This is a socks that sells well in the upper class." The captain said: "I've bought it in the Lost City before. The purchase price of this thing is two pieces of gold."

The foreman who walked in with him smiled and said: "With us, the purchase price of this thing is as low as three gold coins, because the socks in the Lost City are purchased from us, and the current Lost City It’s no longer possible to buy from us."

The captain heard: "A gold coin, three? Oh! My goodness, I want five boxes of this kind of socks, no, ten boxes!"

The foreman smiled and said: "Don't rush to buy too much for one kind of goods. Look at this side. Here is a very high-quality white sugar. You see, it is crystal clear, like crystal... The price is also as low as 20% off the Lost City."

The captain followed the foreman in a big circle, and was shocked by the dazzling array of commodities. The point is that the prices of commodities here are generally a lot lower than the Lost City.

He couldn't help but have a question: "Why are things so cheap here?"

The foreman smiled and said: "That's because of the low transportation cost. The rare commodities of our Gran Kingdom are mainly produced in the two cities of Westwind City and Bright Road. To transport things from these two cities to the Lost City, it is necessary Passing through two forests, the roads are difficult to navigate, and there are monsters obstructing, and the transportation cost is extremely high. However, to transport goods from these two cities to Hong Kong, you only need to take a train. It takes a day or two to arrive easily. There will be a little bit of danger. This greatly saves transportation costs and makes Hong Kong's products cheap and high-quality."

The captain suddenly realized that it turned out to be an advanced train, pulling goods directly from inland cities to ports. By the same token, this port can also quickly pull goods from the sea to the inland. From this point of view, the port will later The cargo throughput of China will definitely exceed that of the Lost City. It is only a matter of time.

The foreman smiled and added: "By the way, Hong Kong has one of the biggest advantages. This is a free trade port. There is no tax on all goods transited in the port, and only when the goods enter the inland. Oh tax."

The captain was overjoyed: "My Fack, why didn't you say this earlier? I knew that there was no tax. Why did I listen to your nonsense for a long time? I want to buy, buy, and exchange every copper coin in my hand for goods."

The foreman smiled and said: "Because, the most important news will not be until the end, you will feel as if you have won the prize."

The captain is indeed as happy as if he has won a prize, because the tax revenues these years are extremely high, especially for the marine goods drawn by the maritime merchants, which are often heavily taxed, but now he has been told that there is no tax at all. It's no wonder that when he sold things to three businessmen just now, no one bargained with him to study who would bear the taxes, because there was no tax at all.

"Heaven! This is a paradise for maritime merchants."

The captain laughed.

After dozens of minutes, the captain, as he said, replaced every copper plate with cargo, and filled the entire warehouse. This warehouse was enough for him to make a lot of money.

Just as he was about to set sail and leave, he suddenly saw the man who had just greeted himself on the sand stall, and he didn't know when he sat on the bow of his ship.

The captain hurriedly gave a big gift: "Oh, the respected Lord of Westwind City, the great Godafather, a hero who can fight against the black dragon, what advice do you have?"

Robb smiled at him: "Don't be so nervous, people in Westwind City will not be so cautious when talking to me, everyone can talk like friends."

The captain quickly put his posture to "pretend" to relax a little, but he was still nervous.

Robb smiled and said, "I came to you, mainly because I want you to find something for me."

The captain hurriedly said: "I would like to hear the details."

Robb said: "You know, the last year the black dragon was flying, I had a small fight with the black dragon."

Is that Xiaoxiao? The captain sweated profusely and thought to himself: Yours was a earth-shattering battle.

Robb said: "The result of this small frame was not perfect. I was run away by the black dragon because I didn't have the equipment that I wanted."

This sentence almost scared the captain to death, and he secretly complained: It is a miracle and an epic that you can repel the black dragon. ? Don't want it to run? What are you going to do?

Robb said: "So, I need equipment! The equipment needs to be made of rare minerals."

The captain understood: "You mean... let me help you pay attention to rare minerals? Good things like mithril and thorium?"

Robb smiled and said, "Mithril and Thorium are rubbish."

captain:"……"

Listen to this, is it human?

Robb said: "I also know that your cognition of metal minerals is limited, so the best metals you know are mithril and thorium, but I also know many weird metals. If I can find them, I can Make a set of real and desirable equipment, and then...I will challenge the black dragon again and kill it!"

The captain hurriedly saluted: "Only you are qualified to do such a great pioneering work."

Robb said: "You don't need to say anything that is polite. What I want you to find are all kinds of stones that you don't know, because the world your marine merchants have traveled through is very vast, not only the Fengmo Continent, but also the New World, the Eastern World... ...You can help me find the things I want in the wider world."
