Black Iron Crown

Of course, this population refers to the Ridka people. The Ridka people are a single ethnic group, almost one of the most populous races in the entire continent. The reason they are called the Ridka people is because they live in Sweden They are only residents within the Deca Empire, and there are many other names for the same nation.

This nation is very exclusive, just like the Klad people in the frigid forest, they have almost no possibility of integrating into it, the only way is to continue to stay in the frigid forest.

Although they were a disaster in the north, they were still at an absolute disadvantage if they faced the Ridkar alone. Not all the Klade people lived in the frigid forest back then.

Before the current royal family had unified a large number of territories under the leadership of the old emperor, the Klad people had come out of the cold forest and wanted to occupy the more fertile and "warm" northern territory.

However, the kingdom at that time came out in full force, and the king led an army of nearly 10,000 to directly defeat the Klad people who were heading south, and drove them back to the frigid forest, and even drove straight into the forest to hunt them down.

However, since winter was about to enter at that time, the kingdom's army had no choice but to withdraw. In the following years, troops were sent into the forest to sweep up the Klade people, which seriously injured their vitality.

However, the kingdom later waged a war of unification, and the Klad people also fell into a disease of scabies against the powerful empire. After enfeoffing a group of nobles in the northern border, they left them in the forest to fend for themselves.

However, Leiner thought that the population in his territory was too small, so he came up with the idea of ​​population trading.

At this time, the empire was in turmoil, and some minor nobles had started small-scale private wars taking advantage of the decline in the control of the royal family. Wars brought a large number of refugees.

Although the royal family has long promulgated a decree prohibiting human trafficking, it has been repeatedly banned, and by this time, I am afraid that those human traffickers will be even more rampant.

These illegal human traffickers became Reiner's best choice.

"Logan, I need you to do something!" Reiner said to Logan who had come to his study. Of course, this kind of thing needs to be done by Logan, and other people may not be able to do it at all.

"What? Your lord baron? I will fulfill your orders to the letter!" Logan said.

"Very well, I need you to go to Mecaron City to find some human traffickers. You need to contact them. I need a large number of people. I can give each person a price of two coppers. Except for the elderly, this is the price for boys and girls. The price, the more quantity the better!"

Reiner was not worried that he would not be able to afford such expenses. One silver coin could buy five people, and one gold coin could buy as many as fifty people.

Reiner has already made a lot of money by selling armor. The purchasing power of currency in this world is still very strong, and people are not that valuable in this era.

Especially the armor business that Leiner has been doing before. The excellent five-ring buckle full-body chain armor may only be worth one or two gold coins in the Northland, but in the Mainland, it can reach the price of seven or eight gold coins.

In other words, this set of armor can be purchased in five or six villages in the interior. There are many skilled craftsmen in the interior who can forge armor, but the price and quantity of iron materials limit the price of the armor.

Therefore, the value of a set of armor is unimaginable, and the value of a set of armor alone can be exchanged for hundreds of civilians.

"Follow the baron, I'll do it right away, maybe I'll be able to contact them within a month, do you think I should talk to them directly or bring them to the castle to have an interview with you?"

"Bring it to the castle, I also need to show some sincerity!" Reiner said.

Logan took Reiner's order and left the study in a hurry to start preparing for it.

At this time, the slave catchers who had been in the jungle for three days also found their prey one after another.

Kerim from Nitang Village also joined the slave hunt as a militiaman who had trained for about two months. If he can gain something, he can help reduce the burden on the family. One copper can already buy back a whole kilogram of air-dried meat It's time for my son to make up his body.

Thinking of this, Kerim put on a happy smile on his face. The status of a self-cultivator is still very popular in the territory. He easily married the daughter of a serf when he was sixteen years old. I had a child in two years.

And he is already twenty-three years old this year, and the children in his family are about to grow up. He hopes that through this militia work, he can give the children a more robust body.

"Be vigilant! Everyone be vigilant, the enemy is not far away from us, melee team formation! Protect the archers!" The accompanying Sergeant Moland shouted loudly, and the experienced hunter found the nearby area through his footprints. The Klade hunting team, and told the news to the Moreland sergeant.

As the top arm of the Rhodok Kingdom, they still knew some common sense of combat, and immediately issued a combat order.

Sergeant Morand held a long sword in his hand, and the militiamen also held spears about two meters long. It is not suitable to use too long spears in such a dense forest. Sergeant Rhodok's melee combat The ability is not weak either.

"There are about thirty of them, at most no more than forty. According to the footsteps we have been following before, they have been marching for five hours, and they should be resting in place now!" A man in his thirties looked The seasoned hunter said to the sergeant.

"Very well, tell the soldiers to keep quiet! We're going to catch each other by surprise!" The sergeant smiled, and then put down the face price that could move on his face and said.

"Everyone is ready to fight! Go slowly and don't make a sound! Remember! Try to capture the enemy alive, that is moving money!"

After hearing the order, everyone else slowed down their movements for fear of disturbing the Clades by making noise.

The same is true for Kerim, his movements are very gentle, he does not want one of his coins to disappear just like this, and the children in the family are still waiting for him to buy meat for them to go back to eat.

This is the responsibility of a young father, and it is also his misfortune.

"Look, my lord, they are right ahead!" The hunter pointed to the front and said in a low voice to the sergeant.

Looking along the hunter's finger, the scene ahead appeared in the sergeant's eyes.

I saw about 30 short and fur-clad Kladers sitting on tree roots or on the ground, eating some disgusting-looking food, or drinking from water bags .

And next to a bottle is the corpse of a wild deer and two lone wolves. It seems that their harvest is not very good. After all, the winter in the cold forest has just ended, and the prey has not become much, so their harvest is also very little. .
