The ans of transporting extraordinary fish?
Upon hearing Su Li's inquiry, Zoe calmly responded, "Of course, as adherents of Manan who navigate the seas year-round, a single voyage can last several seasons or even years. The ability to transport live cargo is a basic requirent."
"In the vast ocean, we frequently encounter extraordinary fish and sea dragons. We often transport so extraordinary fish as offerings to the surging sea monsters and sea dragons beneath the waves. Once they've had their fill of extraordinary fish, these monsters lose interest in the human flesh aboard the ship."
"I only heard that the Bauhinia Knight's territory has spices, how co there are also extraordinary fish?"
Su Li nodded and said, "Currently, there are two types of extraordinary fish in my territory, the Light-Scaled Fish and the Storm Dragon Head Eel. However, due to transportation limitations, they have never been valued appropriately. If these two types of extraordinary fish, along with spices, could be integrated into your trading system, I believe it could yield greater profits for both parties."
"Light-Scaled Fish and Storm Dragon Head Eel!?" Zoe's eyes lit up. She recognized these two types of fish; the Light-Scaled Fish could enhance a knight's cultivation support, and the Storm Dragon Head Eel could, like the Fire Rabbit, directly boost the strength of a knight with a thunder attribute, allowing an imdiate breakthrough in tier, effective below the Elite Level.
If she could manage these two resources, making money would be secondary. She might not even need to make a profit but could subsidize Su Li at a high price, because this trade would undeniably allow her to reap huge amounts of influence and alliances, opening trade routes that were previously inaccessible, using these extraordinary fish as a gateway.
But this also depends on the types of these extraordinary fish; at the very least, the quantities must reach a certain scale, and there must be a stable output.
So, Zoe imdiately asked with concern, "Can your territory produce enough of these extraordinary fish, and is the scale considerable?"
The scale of extraordinary fish in the territory? That is without question, he introduced, "Ms. Zoe should be aware that the most important factor for these extraordinary fish to lay eggs is the proper water conditions. In our territory's Holy Land Reiflin Lake, the climate is mild, and the Spiritual Energy is ample, making the spawning scale of Light-Scaled Fish very large. These fish eggs will gradually hatch according to the abundance of Spiritual Energy, aning that every season we can sell off a batch of Light-Scaled Fish."
"The Storm Dragon Head Eel is in a similar situation; sotis they will eat Light-Scaled Fish, thus causing them to lay eggs. About 6-7 Storm Dragon Head Eels can hatch from a single Light-Scaled Fish. These smaller Storm Dragon Head Eels feed on ordinary fish, and only when they grow larger do they have the ability to hunt Light-Scaled Fish."
"Therefore, the production of these two types of fish will be very considerable; providing you with 40-70 pieces a year should not be a problem."
The figure of 40-70 pieces is sothing Su Li exaggerated; in business negotiations, one has to stretch the truth a bit. In fact, his territory might not be able to provide this many extraordinary fish because a significant proportion needs to remain in the territory to enhance the strength of the knights in Hesse Territory.
These local specialties must certainly prioritize the needs of the nurous knight clans of Hesse Territory, as it helps in gathering the knights' loyalty to the territory and attracting more talent to settle in Hesse, thus providing excellent military personnel for Hesse's army.
But Su Li dared to make such bold claims not entirely without basis; he is very confident in future developnts. If this year or next he can successfully defeat the Blue Mirror Territory and capture the strategic location Blue Mirror Lake, the number of Light-Scaled Fish will surely increase further. By then, he will effectively control two vast counties, and the resources and specialties will further improve.
One must always look at issues with a developntal perspective and possess certain foresight. From this standpoint, what he said may not necessarily be an exaggeration.
And upon hearing this number from Su Li, a smile quickly spread across Zoe's face, even dissolving any animosity from Selanweir, who sat opposite her. She is a rchant, not a knight, and not so proud or stubborn. Even if slaves can bring her at least tens of thousands of Golden Crowns in inco each year, she can greet them with a smile.
So, she decisively said, "Then happy cooperation, Bauhinia Knight. We will arrange for a caravan to set out as quickly as possible to your Hesse Territory, and strive to arrive before your harvest season."
"That would be ideal. To a happy cooperation!" Su Li stood up, hereby formally reaching an agreent with the Ramsey family.
The remaining trade agreents will continue to be negotiated by the ministers from both parties. Hesse Territory has plenty of specialties, such as Half-Elf leather armor, minerals from Blood Pine Forest, and various slaves from the territory.
Indeed, since last year, Hesse Territory's slave trade has seen a gradual reversing trend.
Previously, Hesse Territory primarily purchased slaves; now, it gradually shifts to selling slaves.
Of course, these two trades complent and proceed simultaneously without severe conflict. Hesse Territory still purchases various church nuns, clergy, and a large number of serfs. As settlents and knight clans increase, the demand for serfs is growing daily. No matter how many there are, apart from those too weak or missing limbs, they can basically all be bought up.
anwhile, Hesse Territory also sells various high-value slaves, such as Elite Knights, formal Knights, and Apprentice Knights. These are all mbers captured by the army from Blood Pine Forest's various bandit groups and raiding bands.
