Chapter 283: The Exchange Value of the Golden Eagle

Chapter 283: The Exchange Value of the Golden Eagle

The current situation seemed peaceful, but it was extremely dangerous.

This was like the surface of the sea full of torrential currents and dark tides. It was the calm before the storm. Any careless person who made a mistake would fall into this boundless sea of terror in the abyss and be torn into pieces.

In the Dukedom of Leo, the top-tier noble began to sharpen their knives, ready to enjoy a delicious meal.

The lesser noble families also showed their fangs and claws, trying to get a piece of the pie.

The profit was too big.

It was so big that even the top noble families could not enjoy the delicious food alone. They could only compromise and cooperate with each other in order to enjoy the delicious food in front of them.

Everyone was satisfied.

Including those businessmen who were just errands, they could eat big mouthfuls of delicious food according to their size.

But Kant wasn’t included.

He was the one who would suffer the direct loss of benefits.

Everyone was staring at him fiercely, ready to pounce on him at any moment.

Kant also had a premonition that this time was about to arrive.

The entire “Drondheim” Castle had already entered a level two alert status. Surrounding the dune, there were desert bandits who rode their horses around at all times, patrolling 24 hours a day.

Vaegir archers had all entered the city wall and were no longer resting in the barracks.

There were also knights who were ready to attack at any time.

In order to deal with the danger that would come at any time, they were always on standby.

Firentis and Kant had already had a deep conversation. Regarding the danger that they would face in the future, they would deal with it cautiously. If they encountered an enemy, they would take the initiative to attack. They would use the desert to drag down the enemy, and then they would use the excellent city defense to make the enemy’s troops sink into despair, they could only retreat.

After all, the current Oasis Lookout was still locked down. The noble families of the Dukedom of Leo would never have thought that such a strong and magnificent castle would appear on the oasis. The city defense system was perfect and strict.

Without siege weapons, they would be destined to be futile. There was no way to forcefully attack!

Furthermore, according to Kant’s memories, even if it was the Dukedom of Leo, they would still have to pay a huge price to take down such a city defense.

The current environment in the Nahrin Desert was cruel. There was a lack of water and supplies, and there were no siege weapons. It was impossible for them to withstand a long time. The only way was to retreat, unless they were stupid enough to waste their time and lead to the total annihilation of the army!

But the noble families with ulterior motives did not know that.

They were so naive that they knew nothing.

Kant had already perfectly hidden his fangs and claws, curled up like a kitten.

But when he fully unleashed them, everyone would be shocked.

He was like an adult lion appeared in front of them. With its well-proportioned body, sharp fangs and claws, it officially declared this once deserted Nahrin Desert was its estate now!

Real lions could only grow up in mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

They were Kant’s stepping stones.

It was just that they had not yet discovered this cruel fact.

Kant did not choose to go deep into the desert at this critical moment. Instead, he stayed in the Oasis Lookout and inspected his estate. At the same time, he chose to build his castle better.

For example, more advanced houses were built in every corner and crevice.

They were almost close to the residential area, the crafts area, and the military area.

Another 200 houses were built.

All 300 high-class houses that looked like two-story houses filled the interior of the castle. There was no space for more buildings to be built, but the advantage was the large population!

The population of “Drondheim” Castle had exploded to 3,000 people.

A lot of food was consumed every day.

The output of the agricultural area alone was not enough. Now, it was all used up. They had to buy a large amount of grain from the caravan of Reyvadin to barely maintain the food and drinks of these thousands of people.

Don’t forget, there were nearly 700 troops!

In order to ensure the food supply, Kant specially formed a camel caravan consisting of 20 camels.

It was dedicated to food transportation.

All the preys that were hunted crazily in the Senwaya Range and then made into smoked meat and dried meat. Then, the camel caravan transported it to the Oasis Lookout to increase the consumption of meat and reduce the consumption of grain.

Eating only bread made one hungry very quickly. Having meat not only strengthened the body, but also reduced the consumption of grain.

It is killing two birds with one stone.

But the food problem did not need to be too worried.

Kant has built a salt posthouse at the top of the dune in the salt mine. He has sent 50 peasants to collect coarse salt. Every two days, 50 camel caravans will be sent to transport it, the 600 bags of coarse salt collected in two days will be transported back to the castle. Then, in three days, it will be boiled into 400 bags of fine white salt.

In the end, a caravan of 50 camels was transported to the central posthouse to be sold. The first wave of harvest would be a large amount of silver coins, and Kant would collect all kinds of materials.

Iron tools, farm tools, grain, cloth, and everything, including precious spices, were also purchased.

There were also precious golden eagles!

Manid had already found out that 100 great silver coins could be exchanged for one golden eagle.

However, this price was only the normal price.

In the black market of the Dukedom of Leo, it had already been sold for 120 great silver coins to exchange for one golden eagle.

This was also due to the Dukedom of Leo’s developed agriculture and handicraft industry. Hence, the economy was prosperous. If it was in those poor areas, the price of one golden eagle would usually be sold for 150 great silver coins or more.

For example, in the barren North County, the price of one golden eagle was 150 great silver coins.

If one wanted to exchange for it, one had to look at the connections.

Only Viscount Wayne, who ruled the entire North County, had the ability to exchange for it.

Golden eagles were really very precious.

It was said that the mysterious Mage Tower would collect golden eagles, and even the temples of the gods were no exception. From this, it could be seen that golden eagles were precious resources. Compared to silver coins of different sizes, these eagles were made of gold and looked like palm-sized, glittering eagles, their value was higher, and they had a wider circulation.

Of course, Manid also used his relationship with Baron Dylan at that time to exchange 200 great silver coins for a golden eagle. In Kant’s system exchange, he actually received a price of 1000 denars.

This was a pleasant surprise!

Kant did not expect that the price of golden eagle that was made of gold to be so high.

It was much more valuable than simply selling gold.

After all, a bag of gold was only sold for 50,000 denars. If it was a golden eagle of the same weight, there would definitely be more than 50 of it in a bag. It was estimated to be at least 100 golden eagles could fill up the bag. This was equivalent to100,000 denars!

Just this week, Kant was preparing for the future.

He was prepared to personally go to the table salt trade this time.

After all, this was the first time that the central posthouse was open for trading!
