Chapter 141: A business opportunity (1)
Translator: 549690339
Zhao Hai and the others were extrely busy, and the situation at ika plain was similar. The first ti the Versailles family sent out a small team to exterminate the insects, they did not achieve the results they had expected. On the contrary, as soon as they arrived, they imdiately went to the family for help, and this ti, the situation was worse than the last ti.
The Versailles family finally realized the severity of the situation. They asked for help from Casar city while gathering all the forces in the bullrush Castle. Led by the family elder in charge, Sylvanas, they headed straight to the East of ika plain.
Although Zhao Hai and green had released over ten thousand acres of land full of insects, they were still all located to the East of the ika plain. Thus, the Versailles family had sent all their forces here to eliminate the insects in the shortest ti possible.
However, when these people arrived at the place where the insect disaster occurred, they found that things were beyond their imagination. Just as they arrived, there was an insect disaster in thousands of acres of wheat fields. Not only that, but the isolation zone they had built before could not stop the insects.
There were too many bugs, and their reproductive ability was too strong. They didn’t have enough troops, so the isolation belt was only of little use, but the bugs soon broke through.
It was impossible for five mages to defend more than ten thousand acres of land, not even with the help of the Army and the slaves. By the ti the Versailles family’s reinforcents arrived, they were already preparing a third separation zone. This one was wider and longer, but it did not seem to be of much use.
In fact, they didn’t know that the bugs didn’t have a strong reproductive ability at all. They just didn’t die because they hadn’t reached the ti when the space stipulated that they had to die.
The realm was a mutated existence. It was Zhao Hai’s own world. The rules there were different from the ones on the ark continent. The rules of the realm could not be changed on the ark continent. So, even though the bugs seed to have been killed, they appeared on another wheat plant in the blink of an eye. However, there were too many bugs, so people thought that they had a strong reproductive ability.
Another deceptive characteristic of the insects was that after they were killed, they would appear on another wheat seedling and beco very small, like a newly born insect. After eating the wheat seedling, they would slowly grow bigger. This made the Versailles family believe that this was a natural insect disaster. However, the reproductive ability of these insects was really strong.
What the Versailles family didn’t know was that if they didn’t kill the bugs and just let them gnaw on the food, they might be able to hold on for a while longer. After all, the bugs didn’t crawl very fast. A 10-ter long zone was enough for them to climb for half a day.
However, once they killed the bugs, the bugs were reborn in the intact wheat fields behind the isolation belt. They did help the bugs.
This ti around, the Versailles clan had not only gathered the 5000 Raging Bull guards, but also all the mbers of the Versailles clan who lived in the Raging Bull Castle. They had all gathered to provide reinforcents.
There were nearly 50000 people living in the Raging Bull Castle. Most of them were from the Versailles family. So of them were family servants who were responsible for the maintenance and cleaning of the castle. So of them were the family mbers of the Raging Bull guards. These people also lived here. It could be said that they were the private property of the Versailles family, just like the slaves. Now that the situation was critical, they were all organized.
In this way, the 50000 people in the entire Raging Bull Castle were only left with so people from other Chambers of Comrce. From 50000 people, it was reduced to less than 5000 people. The Raging Bull Castle only left behind so gatekeepers, as well as the old and the weak who could not move. All of them were mobilized.
The Versailles family’s huge movents naturally couldn’t be hidden from the people of the large trade associations. The purpose of these people setting up a trade association here was to monitor the Versailles family’s every move and pry into their secrets.
It was precisely because of this that these people had established a certain level of connection with so of the inner mbers of the Versailles family. When Nat first ca to deliver a letter, the people from the trading company had already felt that sothing was not right. After asking around, they finally found out that there was a bug disaster in the East of the ika Plains.
Initially, the people from these trading companies did not pay much attention to it. It was not like there had not been insect disasters in the ika Plains before. The Versailles family was already very confident in dealing with the insect disaster and nothing major would happen.
However, the situation had taken a turn for the worse. The Versailles clan had actually made such a big move that almost all the people in the galloping bull Castle had been transferred away. It was only then that the people from the trading companies realized that the situation was not as simple as they had thought.
However, it was impossible for them to find out more information at this ti, because the Versailles family who had contact with them had gone to the ika Plains to exterminate insects. They couldn’t find anyone even if they wanted to.
However, these people from the trading companies were still rchants in the end. They imdiately slled a business opportunity from this matter! It was an insect disaster, and it seed to be a large-scale insect disaster. What did it an for such an insect disaster to happen in such a grain-producing area? It ant that there was a shortage of food, and the price of food was going to rise!
A business opportunity, a huge business opportunity!
For businessn, business opportunities were the most important. The disaster was not within their consideration. Therefore, these shops outside the galloping bull Castle imdiately spread the news to all the major business families. Among them was a person from the magicider firm, and this person was Laura’s subordinate.
The magidle trading company had trained wind Falcons, and almost all the wind Falcons in Casar city were fed by Nicole. For so reason, Nicole was born with a love for wind Falcons, and wind Falcons also liked her very much. In the end, Laura simply handed over the job of raising wind Falcons to Nicole.
Recently, Nicole had been very happy because of Laura. If Laura was happy, she would be happy. Her life was that simple.
Nicole was feeding the wind Falcons. Although they were not picky, they still ate fresh at. Laura had more than 200 adult wind Falcons and more than 100 young ones. They had to eat a lot of food every day.
If an ordinary family had so many windfalcons, they would need at least dozens of people to take care of them. Windfalcons were a kind of bird of prey. Even if they were trained, they had to be careful when feeding them, or they could be easily injured.
However, Nier didn’t need to do that. She only needed to send the beef to the gyrfalcons, and those gyrfalcons would eat it by themselves. Sotis, she would even bring so live food for the gyrfalcons so that they could hunt for food themselves. Therefore, the gyrfalcons in Laura’s hand were more handso and wild than those in ordinary families.
Ni ‘er had just finished feeding the wind Falcon and was humming a little song. Suddenly, an Eagle’s Cry ca from the space. Then, a black shadow shot down and landed on ni’ er’s shoulder. Ni ‘er was stunned for a mont. She looked at the wind Falcon and imdiately recognized that it was her own. She looked at the wind Falcon’s leg and suddenly saw a letter.
Ni ‘er imdiately took down the letter and touched the wind Falcon’s back.”Little thirteen, you’ve worked hard. Quickly go inside and eat sothing, or your brothers will finish it in a mont.” Nicole gave each Falcon a number, but she did not make any marks. Only she could recognize the number at a glance. This was also one of her special abilities.
The wind Falcon rubbed its mouth on ni ‘er’s face a few tis, then flew into the house to eat. Ni’ er took the letter and went to the study.
Laura was looking at the accounts in the study. The radishes she brought back from Zhao Hai sold well hotcakes. People now knew that the red spider lily shop sold a type of demonic spider plant called radish. It contained an abundant amount of magical elents. So civilians with children at school would buy it. Even so rcenaries would buy it.
It was because of the radishes that the sales volu of the red spider lily shop increased greatly, which made Laura extrely happy.
At this mont, Nier walked over and said to Lola, ” “Miss, I just received a letter on the 13th. It might be sothing that happened at the galloping bull Castle.” After saying that, he put the letter in front of Laura.
Laura was stunned for a mont. She took the letter and read it. It was indeed from the spy of the galloping bull Castle. She imdiately opened the letter and read it carefully. After a few glances, Laura’s expression changed and she said to Nier: ” “Ni ‘er, quickly call Grandpa kun Zheng over. Hurry.”
Although Nier did not know why Laura was so excited, she imdiately responded and ran out. Soon, kun Zheng ca over. When he saw Laura walking around in the study room, kun Zheng was stunned. He had watched her grow up. Sothing big must have happened. He imdiately said, ” “Laura, what’s wrong? What’s happening?”
When Laura saw kun, she imdiately said, ” &Quot; Grandpa kun Zheng, there’s been a large-scale insect disaster at the ika Plains, and the grain may be reduced today. &Quot; As he spoke, he passed the letter in his hand to kun Zheng.
Kun Zheng’s expression changed when he heard Laura’s words. He imdiately took the letter and read it carefully. As expected, the letter not only ntioned the insect disaster in ika plain, but also the Versailles family’s reaction. Kun Zheng imdiately understood that ika plain was in big trouble this ti.
After reading the letter carefully twice, kun Zheng put it down and looked up at Laura. &Quot; “Laura, what are your thoughts?”
Laura’s expression turned serious, ” this is an opportunity. The ika plain is the Granary of the Versailles Duchy. If sothing goes wrong there, the prices of food in the Versailles Duchy will definitely rise. If we can take the opportunity to stock up on a large amount of food, we can definitely make a lot of money. I think it’s best for us to start stocking up on food now. &Quot;
Kun Zheng nodded, but before he could say anything, a clear voice was suddenly heard. &Quot; “No, Laura, how could you do this?”
