Hilton and Jes exchanged a glance.

Then, Hilton started speaking, “I can mobilize the power of the Black Lion Commerce to purchase food from various kingdoms and villages and transport it to your territory.”

“However… as you know, food is quite scarce in this world, let alone needing so much at once.”

“During this process, just the transportation costs are incredibly high, not to mention other fees for hiring guard teams…”

“All things considered, I’m afraid the price might exceed expectations.”

Cao Xing nodded, “I understand, so I will buy at a price higher than the market rate.”

“For staple foods like wheat and rice, I can offer 80~100 crowns per kilogram.”

“For vegetables that can be transported long distances, I can offer 150~160 crowns per kilogram.”

“As for meat, the purchase price would be around 800~900 crowns per kilogram. What do you think?”

According to the standard market price, items like wheat and rice are priced between 20 to 30 crowns in towns.

They might be a bit cheaper in villages, but not below 15 crowns.

That’s because there are no transportation costs, and it’s mostly locally produced and sold.

The amount of food Cao Xing needed this time was astonishing and could not be fulfilled in the nearby regions.

The cost of transportation and storage alone exceeded the value of the food.

The two exchanged another look.

Jes replied, “That’s a very reasonable price, Lord Cao Xing.”

“However, last time in Merlin City, you saved us, and we haven’t had the chance to repay you.”

“Our Woodpecker Commerce can collect it for you free of charge, you just need to cover the cost of the grain.”

He spoke with utmost sincerity.

Hilton, seeing Jes being so eager to show goodwill, quickly chimed in, “Our Black Lion Commerce is the same!”

Cao Xing could naturally see their intentions, and with a light smile, he shook his head, “No need, a price is a price.”

“Also, I’d like to remind you of one thing.”

“When the two of you purchase grain from villages not governed by a lord,”

“I hope you can give the farmers a higher purchase price after deducting all costs.”

“Life for farmers in this world isn’t easy; we shouldn’t let them suffer.”

“We’ll have more opportunities to cooperate in the future, and I hope this collaboration will benefit everyone.”

Upon hearing this, a trace of admiration appeared on their faces, and they nodded solemnly, “We understand, Lord Cao Xing.”

“We know which money to earn and which not to.”

Cao Xing nodded slightly, gradually feeling a sense of relief in his heart.

The matter of acquiring food was settled.

Next, all that was needed was to wait for them to transport the food so he could start the Giant City construction plan.

After having two more glasses of wine,

Cao Xing spoke again, “Gentlemen, let’s discuss the second matter now.”

The two merchants immediately put down their wine glasses and listened intently.

“I believe you know that a batch of Cloud Yaks has been domesticated in my territory.”

“After some time, we’ve already produced quite a bit of Cloud Yak Milk.”

“And over at the brewery, we’ve also produced a lot of high-quality rum.”

“Thus, I’d like both of you to purchase a batch.”

Hearing this, Hilton and Jes’s eyes immediately lit up!

After all, they were deeply impressed by Cao Xing’s territory due to these magic creatures!

Moreover, the by-products of these magic creatures yielded huge profits!

Hilton had already made quite a sum of crowns from previous trades.

After tasting the benefits, he was eager for another chance to cooperate.

However, at that time, Cao Xing’s territory was just starting, and production was limited, so they had to wait.

Jes also earned a handsome profit through the trade of spirits.

Hence, they both eagerly awaited this opportunity!

The two immediately responded excitedly, “Lord Cao Xing, we are very willing to cooperate!”

Cao Xing smiled, “Great, then come with me.”

Soon, they left the tavern and came to the street outside.

Cao Xing pressed the communication device by his ear and ordered, “Du An, arrange for some workers to bring up some of our milk and rum from the cellar.”

“Yes, Lord!”

Quickly, a dozen or so workers started taking action.

They were moving in and out of the basement, bringing up barrel after barrel of fresh milk and rum with a rich aroma.

In the blink of an eye, the street was piled high with supplies, amounting to several hundred barrels.

Hilton and Jes looked at the mountain of supplies before them, eyes already gleaming with excitement!

It was as if they saw a torrent of crowns heading their way!

Jes exclaimed, “It hasn’t been long since the last transaction, yet so much wine has already been produced.”

“The production capacity of the brewery in Lord Cao Xing’s territory is truly astounding!”

Cao Xing smiled.

In fact, this was only a part of the resources in his territory.

He also had a large reserve of other supplies, originally planned to be sold in a store he would open in the city after completing the Giant City construction.

By doing so, he would eliminate the middlemen and earn more profits.

But now, he was too short on food and money.

So he could only turn to Hilton and Jes to exchange for urgently needed supplies.

Cao Xing said, “Then, gentlemen, this batch of supplies is yours, still at the previous purchase price.”
