Lord of Riding and Slashing

Chapter 52 Preparing for Trade

Not long after Abel left, Lehman and others came to the study under the leadership of Belle.

"You are all here. After a few days of leisure, you will be busy soon, no problem."

Seeing them coming, Nord stood up from behind the desk and walked to the map next to him. The map was drawn by Nord when he was bored these days. Because the scope of the map expanded a lot last time, Nord followed the system again. It took a new copy of the map, and the previous sketch was directly discarded by Nord.

Hearing Nord's words, Marco and Reed glanced at each other, and both of them saw joy and excitement in each other's eyes, while Lehman looked calm and said in a deep voice:

"Lord Nord, if you have any tasks, just ask."

"Yes, yes, Lord Nord, I follow your arrangement."

"Me too."

Hearing what Lehman said, Reed and Marco expressed their opinions one after another, but from their expectant and excited eyes, it is not difficult to see that they are more eager for novel tasks rather than cookie-cutter jobs.

Nord pondered for a moment, thinking about how to arrange it in his mind before speaking slowly.

"Marco will be responsible for the trade with Yuanshanzhai in the future, and we will start tomorrow, but because you are not familiar with the road, let Lehman take you there tomorrow, and then you will be responsible, and the old Moll is still in the Yuan Shanzhai, I think he will help you if you have any difficulties."

Marco nodded excitedly, patted his chest and promised to complete the task to Nord. Lehman just nodded calmly, indicating that there would be no problems. Reed was the only one left, and he did not hear his task. De is a little flustered, should he stay in the village to grow yams? Reid's eyes were full of grievances.

Nord saw Reed's reaction. Seeing such an expression, Nord was angry and funny, and finally couldn't help but speak.

"Okay, you can hand over the planting of yams to your father. Anyway, he has nothing to do now, and you can take a break with the vanguard. Tomorrow you can go to the mountains with me to find iron ore .”

Reed turned from worry to joy, with a bitter face one second, as if Nord owed him a lot of money, and a smile on his face the next second, he almost jumped up with joy, just like the sky in June , change as soon as you say it.

"Master Nord, don't worry, I will let my father help me. By the way, what does iron ore look like?"

If you can't play with Reed, Nord kicked him, turned to Lehman and Marco and said:

"Go back and prepare. See how many people are suitable. You can come to the manor tomorrow to bring the traded materials. By the way, I'll show you some good things."

Speaking of which, Nord remembered the machete, and led them to the warehouse behind the stone building.

Lehman and Marco each picked up a machete and couldn't put it down, while Reed, who was curious about everything, just picked it up for a glance and then put it down. After a while, Lehman and Marco also put down the machete. But his eyes were still fixed on the machete, with reluctance in his eyes.

Lehman quickly adjusted his mentality, looked away, looked at Nord, and raised questions.

"Master Nord, is this equipment for us?"

Hearing Lehman's question, Marco also reacted, looking at Nord expectantly, wanting to hear Nord's answer immediately.

Nord didn't whet their appetites either. He nodded and responded to their questions. Lehman and Marco smiled at each other, both a little happy to get such a good weapon.

"You take these machetes back. As for how to distribute them, you can decide. Now basically everyone has a weapon. As for other equipment, you tell the hunters in the guard, and I will distribute them slowly in the future. .”

Before Lehman and Marco recovered from their joy, Nord asked them to take the machete back and told them not to delay tomorrow's work.

Not long after they left, Belle brought Nord's dinner to the study with a tray. Not long after returning to the study, Nord suddenly found that the sky was slowly getting dark, and the busy time always passed quickly.

Nord sat at the desk and had dinner. According to noble etiquette, eating at the desk is not allowed. Steward Abel also reminded Nord, but Nord did not take it to heart. Nord believes that etiquette is not useful. To restrain yourself, when you are alone, you should be as comfortable as possible, and don't pay attention to too many red tapes.

Today's dinner is still stewed pork with yam. The pork is still the air-dried meat left over from the big wild boar last time, so the taste is not very good. Nord did not pay attention to those small wild boars. These wild boars will not be harvested until at least next year. Nord will not do the chicken and egg thing.

The taste of pork is not very good, but it can be made up for with excellent craftsmanship. Nord did not expect that his maid, Belle, has such an outstanding chef talent. He watched Abel cook several times a few days ago. I have learned cooking skills, and now I am better than blue, and Biabel's half-handed craftsmanship is not far behind. The other simple dishes are already on par with Abel.

So Abel has officially retired from the position of chef, and the job of chef will be handed over to Nord's maid Belle. Seeing Belle's ingenious talent, Nord wonders every time he eats, is it too much? Thinking of some recipes for Belle to try, but thinking that there are too few types of ingredients here, Nord gave up the idea.

At this moment, a conversation is going on in the remote village a hundred miles away. In Harlan's cabin, Old Moore is discussing trade with Harlan, while Wagner looks drowsy. look.

"According to Viscount Nord's plan, the caravan he sent to trade should be here soon."

Harlan looked at the bright moon outside the window, feeling a little anxious in his heart. Harlan laughed at himself. At the beginning, he didn't agree to interact with the outside world, but now he became anxious. When did his mentality change? Was it when you saw Viscount Nord's sincere and confident eyes? Or when you see the happy smiles on the faces of the mountain people who are full and full these days? Harlan asked himself repeatedly in his heart, but he didn't get an answer.

"I guess it will be these two days. Master Nord will do what he says, and he will definitely not let you down."

Old Moore trusted Nord very much. Although he had only known him for more than a month, Old Moore was already deeply impressed by Nord's personality charm. Perhaps it was because Nord swore to Old Moore that he would find Yuan When he was in the cottage, perhaps when Old Moore made a mistake and Nord still chose to trust him, Old Moore didn't know.

"You trust him."

"Lord Nord is trustworthy."

Old Moore's gaze was very firm, even though the old man in front of him was the old man he respected and admired the most, Old Moore did not choose to back down.

"Yes, Viscount Nord is a trustworthy person, so let's inform the mountain people first and prepare the supplies he needs. They should be here soon."

After saying this, Harlan and Elder Moore were speechless, and then they fell silent for a while. Wagner's deafening snoring could only be heard echoing in the silent wooden house.
