Start as Inherited Baroness

Chapter 160 Let’s talk business

"I called you here today to teach you a skill. After you learn it, you are not allowed to teach it to others, otherwise you will be killed without mercy!"

Simon announced first.

"Yes! Sir! We will comply..."

The female slaves responded one after another, with some confusion.

Simon did not have too high requirements for formation discipline and continued: "After that, you are not allowed to leave Fort Courage without permission."

The female slaves felt a little disappointed when they heard this, which was not much different from imprisoning them.

However, when they thought about their status as slaves, they felt relieved and did not dare to desire too much.

At least here you can eat and drink without worries, and if you get really bored you can go for a walk in the garden.

It's better than the days in Slaver's Bay.

Afterwards, Simon divided the two hundred slave girls into four groups, and then divided the soap making process into four parts and taught them to them.

They also asked their groups not to meet each other and send the fifty people who made alkaline water to another small workshop for production.

The core of making soap is to obtain alkaline water. As long as you grasp this step, it will not be easy for outsiders to imitate it.

In addition, the little secret of adding salt in the last step is only known to a small number of female slaves who are pulled into the team column, which has a finishing touch.

After more than a week, Simon finally taught these two hundred female slaves step by step.

During this period, he asked Yaman to take people to the Qingluo River to select a site to build a stone bridge.

And built a outpost covering an area of ​​about three acres.

Although the area is small, as long as the outer wall is high, more than ten meters, it cannot be attacked without all the equipment. It is much stronger than a wooden camp.

In this way, the land passage between the Valorant Territory and the Fearless Territory will be completely connected, eliminating the need for time-consuming and laborious wading or boating across the river.

Not long after, the first batch of soap was produced.

After he personally inspected it, he found that the quality was pretty good and there was absolutely no problem in selling it. He couldn't help but laugh.

Next, the next thing to consider is the issue of sales.

I gave him a pillow when I felt sleepy. Early that morning, the Fengjian Chamber of Commerce came to the outside of the Fort of Fortitude amid the dew and the chirping of birds.

At this time, Simon was eating breakfast in the lord's hall, which was relatively rich, including white bread with butter and honey, charcoal-grilled red venison steak, vegetable soup, etc.

"Lord Baron! Carlyle from the Windjian Chamber of Commerce is here." He was eating vigorously when Mailan suddenly knocked on the door and announced.

"Huh? Where are you?" Simon heard this, swallowed the last bite of venison, looked up and asked.

"We have arrived outside the city." Mailan replied.

"Let's go out of the city to meet them and assemble the guards."

Simon picked up the clean and soft velvet and wiped the oil stains on his mouth, stood up and said.

"Yes!" Mailan responded and left.

During this gap, Simon called a few servants and put on knight's plate armor.

Not long after, there were five hundred soldiers in strict formation in the open space outside the main castle, ready to go.

Simon went out for a brief inspection, then mounted his horse and led the people towards the outside of the castle.

Not long after, they came outside the earth wall and saw Kyler and his party.

The team of the Kazama Chamber of Commerce is quite large, with hundreds of carriages and hundreds of guards, more than 200 of whom are members of the Spear Mercenary Group.

It seems that he has got rid of the plight of being short of money and mobilized most of the mercenary group here.

"Lord Baron! Good day!" Carlisle greeted with a smile and bowed respectfully on his horse.

"Father-in-law! Please!" Simon responded with a smile, and now his eyes were full of small coins.

Kyler previously took his magic materials and wood to sell, and now it's time to settle the account.

Soon, the father-in-law and his wife came to the lord's hall.

Carlisle has traveled thousands of miles and is covered in dust, and he hasn't had breakfast yet.

Simon was naturally not stingy and immediately ordered Chunlan to have the kitchen prepare a feast.

After the two chatted for a while, they began to sip ale and talk about business.

"How's it going? Are the sales of those magic materials pretty good?" Simon asked reservedly with a smile on his face.

“Not bad, these materials are in short supply in Eagle City, and they were sold out as soon as they were taken out.

Those alchemists and high mages are really rich, and they can buy thousands of golden eagles without blinking an eye.

Gillette! Get the money quickly! "Kyle laughed and finally shouted loudly.

After a while, Mailan and several heavily armored guards came in with a few unarmed mercenaries.

They carried a medium-sized wooden box, placed it on the table, and immediately opened the lid, revealing a golden light inside.

Seeing this, Simon grinned and waved his hand, and Mailan immediately closed the wooden box, picked it up, and placed it on a shelf not far away in the hall.

"Call brother-in-law quickly." At this time, Carlyle said with a smile.

"Brother-in-law!" Gillette immediately looked at Simon with a smile, saluted respectfully and shouted.

"This is?" Simon looked at Carlyle and asked doubtfully.

"He is my fifth son. He is sixteen years old this year and has just grown up. He is already as strong as a bronze warrior.

This time I came out to give him a lot of experience. In addition, I wanted him to serve under Li De for a while and gain some experience.

From now on, I will be working under you, so I need you to take care of me. "Kyle said with a smile.

"Oh! You're welcome! Yes, you have the physique of a bronze warrior at this age, and your future is bright."

Simon nodded and smiled, not caring at all.

After all, Kyler can no longer pose any threat to him.

The number of golden warriors under his command was too many to count with two hands.

In addition to Reed, he did not intend to grant any more territory to the members of Kalair's family.

The land of Fengjian Village was enough to repay this person's investment in Simon. After all, such a thing would be hard to come by in the mainland.

After chatting for a while, some servants brought a sumptuous meal.

Simon asked Gillette to sit down together, and the other mercenaries withdrew.

Kalair's subordinates were naturally entertained, but they all ate in the soldiers' canteen, and no one was qualified to sit at the main table.

The meal was spent in a fairly pleasant atmosphere.

After the meal, Simon had no intention of leaving, so others naturally did not dare to mention it first.

"What goods did you bring this time?"

He asked casually. Since he had eaten breakfast, he only tasted a little.

Most of the dishes went into the stomachs of Kalair and his son, especially the father-in-law, who ate half a deer steak himself. He was really a big eater.

The appetite of golden warriors was basically this big.

Therefore, it is not possible to train elite core soldiers. Without a material foundation, everything is just empty talk.

"Half of it is food. The current food market in Xisai is more than ten times the usual price. We can make a fortune.

In addition, there are 20 carts of iron ingots and 20 carts of salt..."

Kelair said. His two daughters followed Simon, so he told the truth and was not worried about being robbed.

"Your goods are all in short supply in Xisai. Except for salt, I want them all. You just need to give me a slightly lower price.

In addition, I have some good goods to sell to you. You must be interested..." Simon said with a mysterious smile.
