Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Five: Many businessmen have made their fortunes by war

Perhaps because he entered the first batch of goods, Mann was a little excited and did not sleep well all night when he left Makarov's village. He calculated the money he could make. If nothing unexpected happened, he said he could make three times the money he made, which means they could earn two big silver coins and directly earn the money from the carriage.

There is always a shortage of food in the west because the wastelands are difficult to plant there, and there will always be wild animals attacking from the westernmost wastelands to invade human land.

So as long as you dare to take risks, you can make a lot of money here every autumn.

Mann didn't sleep all night, so Chu naturally didn't need to rest. In fact, she hadn't slept for several nights. They lit up the oil lamps on the carriage and drove all night in the night.

Until they walked out of the forest surrounding Makarov Village and came to the field to the west. The field was very empty and boundless, with only occasionally a crooked wooden street sign standing on both sides of the road to point out the direction for pedestrians.

The wind blew the grass on both sides, causing grass clippings to fly. Under the lit sky, on the path in the grassland, a small carriage seemed to be walking alone.

"Start." At this time, Mann suddenly pointed in one direction and said, "Look at that."

Where he pointed, the sky was lit up, clouds surrounded, and the sun shone through the fog and fell into the world.

A minstrel once said that dawn at dawn is like the first light that lights up in the sky when God created the world.

The world is illuminated by the sun, the grass is illuminated by the sun, and the carriages are also illuminated by the sun.

The first person in the carriage raised his head and looked at the dawn light.

"It's so beautiful, isn't it?" Mann said with a smile, the glory on the boundless field was so dazzling.

But the scenery I saw with evil for the first time was a little different from what Mann saw.

Ei was a little afraid of the too dazzling light, so in Chu's eyes, the sun's eclipse, and the twisted Ei retreated, trying to cover her eyes.

But Chu still smiled lightly, nodded and said, "Yes, it's very beautiful."

Because she could imagine how it looked like.

Mann stood up, lifted the oil lamp on the carriage, opened his hands and said proudly at the road ahead that had not been completely illuminated by the sun.

"Start faster, gold coins won't wait for anyone."

I took a look at the boy who was suddenly arrogant and shook his head with a smile.

"I know, don't fall down."

As he said that, he shook the reins in his hand.

The dark horse pulling the carriage neighed, spread its four hooves and started running.

Horses in this world seem to be very powerful, and a horse can run with carriages loaded with goods.

The sudden speed of speed tightened the wind in my ears, and the horse's mane flew, and the boy's screams came from the wind blowing towards me.

"Wow! First, slower, slower!"

Because of the speed, the two of them had already passed through the outermost field in the west in the afternoon, approaching the city in the west, and there were gradually pedestrians on the road.

It was getting late, and after arriving at a small gathering place, the two of them were about to stop and rest.

As the horses hummed, the carriage stopped.

Mann walked out of the carriage with his handrail tremblingly. His face was pale and he covered his stomach. If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't eaten anything, he would have spit out all the food he had eaten.

The carriage that ran along the way was really very bumpy, which made him feel that his internal organs had been displaced.

But at first she looked refreshed and she liked the feeling of galloping. In fact, if she was allowed to run this distance by herself, she would be faster. Well, maybe more than a little, but then Mann's small body shouldn't stand it.

Chu patted Mann on the shoulder, then casually found a clearing space and sat down.

There are many people nearby, which is a small gathering place where passers-by and businessmen will settle down.

There are many tents set up around, and people sit by their own bonfires, some chat with each other, and some remain silent.

Mann took a long rest before taking out a piece of dry food from his pocket and started eating it on his own. As for Chu, he knew a few days ago that Chu didn't have to eat.

Two people were chatting by the other bonfire.

"Where are your batch of goods going to be shipped?" Hearing the voice and content of his speech, they should be two merchants.

Mann turned his ear and pretended to listen indifferently. Although he was not old, he had all the character of a businessman. Just like every businessman, he liked to eavesdrop on the gossip.

"Castelol." The businessman asked did not avoid too much, after all, he was just talking about his destination.

"Oh, I thought you were going to transport it to the front line."

The person who asked the question nodded and said casually: "A lot of people have been there recently."

"Frontline?" The businessman who was about to go to Castello was stunned for a moment.

"Yes." said the man who was talking to him threw a firewood into the bonfire.

"This year's beast tide comes from the west is bigger than in previous years. Those beasts have no food, so they can only come to the east to find food. In order to resist the beast tide, the kingdom sent an army to station in the westernmost city of Heskama. So some people who were desperate thought it was a business opportunity and took the goods there."

"It's really a waste of life." The merchant glanced at his mouth.

"If you have any business opportunities on the front line, you won't be afraid of being eaten by the beasts."

"In my opinion, it is not completely missing. Because it is too far from the center of the kingdom, the military's supplies often cannot keep up. Those guys sell them to the army with supplies, and maybe they can really make a big profit."

"That has nothing to do with me." The merchant who was not ready to go to the front line had no choice but to spread his hands: "The goods I shipped are not a supply."

······

"Crack." Mann bit the dry food in his hand, and his eyes were motionless in the bonfire, as if he was thinking about something.

The sky was completely dark, and the scattered bonfires on the field reflected the planets in the sky, which was also a special scenery on this trade route.

"What are you thinking?" asked at first glance at Mann.

The unpleasant voice of evil sounded in Mann's ears.

The boy swallowed the dry food from his mouth and said to Chu seriously.

"First, let's go to the front line."

If the goods can be sold to the army, it will definitely come much faster than if they are brought to the city to sell to civilians. Then before the end of autumn, they can take at least two cargoes and the money they earn will increase exponentially.

"Yes." Chu agreed without much thought. Anyway, it was the same for her to go anywhere.

"Then." Mann asked with a timid smile.

"You can guarantee that I will not be eaten by the beasts, right?"

"certainly."

Chu picked up a stone on the ground and held it in his hand.

When she spread her hands out again, the stones had turned into powder and gradually scattered in the wind.
