"The plan is going to fail! Why?"
Lei Boret was very puzzled by this. Logically, every lord of every territory would wish that all the refugees would die quickly or leave their territory as soon as possible, but now Robo told him that those refugees had no way to come to the Black Jade Territory.
"The Duchy of France has declared war on us."
The Duchy of France is a human kingdom located to the west of the Kingdom of Grid. There are currently three human kingdoms on the entire continent.
The Kingdom of Grid, the Duchy of France, and the Empire of Dreast.
Logically speaking, the Kingdom of Grid and the Duchy of France have nothing to do with each other, and it is impossible for them to go to war. Moreover, the Duchy of France is a very peace-loving country (it is actually just weak), so it is impossible for it to choose to go to war with the Kingdom of Grid.
"And the country that Lord Reborret chose to go to war with this time was not our Kingdom of Grid."
"Don't tell me it was the Duchy of France that proposed this."
Luo Bo didn't say anything, just nodded.
Leibolet felt that this matter was not simple. The King of the Duchy of France was not a great "civilized" person, so there must be some hidden secrets or conspiracy involved.
However, this has nothing to do with Reborret. After all, the Duchy of France is to the west of the Kingdom of Grid, and he is in the southernmost part of the Kingdom of Grid. Unless the Duchy of France is mentally ill and does not want to cross the Elf Forest to come here to find him, Reborret can completely ignore these things.
"So all those refugees were honored to join the army."
"Yes, I joined the army 'voluntarily'."
"What a proactive move, but this is also a good way for the nobles to clear out the refugees in their territories.
Fortunately, we have a lot of manpower in the territory now. If it were still the same as before, I would cry my heart out."
As he was speaking, a staff member of the Luobo Chamber of Commerce indicated that the goods had all been loaded and could be shipped at any time.
"Also, Lord Reborret, you've been saying that you need someone skilled in alchemy. I have some good news."
Upon hearing this, Reborret immediately became excited.
Alchemy! His Gustav cannon just had one shell left, and now the mortar master said he could build eight or ten. As long as there were talented alchemists in place, then...
"Brother Luo Bo! Is there really someone talented in alchemy?"
Gobnan, who had just finished training outside, just came back. He caught a very exciting piece of news: people with alchemy talents can join the territory!
Among the five goblins, only Gobnan is still using ordinary weapons. He is still talented and proficient in firearms, but the old problem still exists: no one knows how to make them.
If you ask Tieti to build a gun casing and give him a blueprint, he can do it in minutes. But as for the proportion of gunpowder, Tieti said, "I will try to learn these things in my next life."
"Don't worry, Lord Gobnan. Lord Reborret's information may not be accurate, and there are certain risks involved.
There's said to be a gray dwarf at the Red Dragon Territory's slave auction. I've discovered through special channels that he seems to have studied alchemy."
Gray dwarves differ significantly from dwarves. Dwarves are known for their diligence, bravery, loyalty, pride, and stubbornness. They value family and tradition, and have a strong sense of belonging to their clan. They excel in crafts like blacksmithing and mining, and deeply cherish their crafted items and the underground castles they inhabit. Dwarves generally tend to be lawful, and have a certain degree of cooperation with races like humans and elves to jointly fight against evil.
But the duergar are different. They are insidious, cunning, and greedy. They dwell in deeper, darker places underground and often collude with evil creatures. They often resort to any means necessary to gain personal gain, including theft and betrayal, and are generally considered evil.
In addition, gray dwarves are even thinner and shorter than dwarves, so many races do not like gray dwarves very much.
"So, Lord Reborret, on the one hand, the information is not accurate and I cannot guarantee that it is absolutely correct. On the other hand, there is the issue of this person's race. Gray dwarves are bigger than goblins... Lord, you understand everything. Also, Lord Reborret, you may need to return to Red Dragon Territory to participate in this slave auction, which is very risky."
After listening to this, Lei Boret just smiled and patted Luo Bo's shoulder, then put his arms around Luo Bo's neck.
"Alright, stop keeping me in suspense. If you're brave enough to bring this up, then you must have a good idea to help us participate in this auction."
"It's true that nothing can be hidden from you, Lord Reborret.
When I was a traveling merchant, I had a friend who specialized in selling tickets. He will give you, Lord Reborret, a fake identity so you can participate in this auction."
"Isn't the auction open to everyone?"
"Not really. This time we're using an invitation system. It's said there are many good slaves for sale, so the auctioneers don't have to worry about not being able to invite anyone."
The alien scalper, Lei Boruit, has already made up his mind to go to the Red Dragon Territory to take a look at this auction.
Leibolet has nothing to worry about in terms of safety. Uma is very likely a sixth-level existence, and Selene is a sixth-level star mage. To be honest, if the system gives Leibolet a task to kill Eric, he will not dare to go straight into the Red Dragon Castle.
"Then I'll trouble you, Luo Bo, to arrange this matter. After all, the territory is in great need of talents in this field right now."
Just as Rebollet was happily imagining a bright future, Uma interrupted his fantasy.
"Master Reborret... there is something you may not know."
Reborite looked at Uma with confusion.
"Master, the territory's finances are currently only able to run the territory perfectly."
"so what?"
"To put it bluntly, we have no money right now."
Reborret, a high-ranking official knight, suddenly felt dizzy and his eyes went dark.
"It's pretty good, we went from basically losing money in the beginning to being perfectly self-sufficient now.
It's just that the territory really doesn't have any extra wealth to spend right now."
Before Reborite could speak, Luo Bo said directly:
"The Black Jade Chamber of Commerce is still in its infancy and is very short of money."
It’s good that Robo has learned the same prediction as Uma.
I never thought that one day I would be in a dilemma because of having no money.
"Luo Bo, how are the sales of the Obsidian Magic Crystals in the Red Dragon Territory now?"
“Demand outstrips supply.”
"Then if I smuggle Obsidian Magic Crystal Ore, can I make a fortune?"
Luo Bo's eyes widened, somewhat confused. Smuggling his own goods?
