Chapter 72

Nick was sitting on a unicycle at this time. This unicycle was built by Allen's order from a human carpenter. It only needed to install a wheel in front as a fulcrum, so that it could be pushed forward very conveniently.

It can be operated by one person, and it is simple and easy to use. In many cases, it is easier to use than a horse-drawn carriage.

"Praise Lord Allen!"

Nick had to admire Master Allen's wisdom for coming up with such a useful invention.

This time, he was entrusted by Allen to recruit the orc race. Before departure, Giovanni provided everything he asked for.

A total of 20 tons of pickled salted fish and meat pickled from other herbivorous animals.

Behind Nick were nearly 200 black apes, each pushing a wheelbarrow filled with food.

Nick planned to use these foods as a stepping stone, thinking that the orcs, who were always short of food, would not refuse.

The reason why I chose the black ape race to work with me is, firstly, because this race is more intelligent and easier to perform tasks. Secondly, because bringing an overly powerful race over would be a bit domineering and not conducive.

The end result is success.

The black ape clan is not too strong, nor is it too weak, it is just right.

"Stop, who are you?" Hawthorne looked at the group of monsters heading straight towards the orc tribe. He was alert and stopped Nick and the others with the long sword he had just obtained.

"First go and tell your clan leader that we are the envoys of the Black Dragon clan, and we are here to discuss an important business with him!"

Nick looked at the human sword in Hawthorne's hand and felt a little confused.

Strange, how come the orcs have human swords?

Anyway, it was impossible for them to build it themselves. This conjecture was directly rejected by Nick. Nick only thought that the passing human caravan was robbed by the orcs, and they snatched the sword.

"People from the Black Dragon Clan!" Hearing this answer, Hawthorne looked a little ugly, but the black dragon finally found them.

"We come here with sincerity and have no intention of causing any disputes." At Nick's signal, the black apes pushed all the wheelbarrows forward, which were piled with food.

The orcs behind Hawthorne immediately caused a commotion, followed by the sound of swallowing. They had not seen so much food in front of them for a long time since they fell into a food crisis.

Hawthorne looked at the number of monsters on the opposite side. There were only 200 of them. If they took action, even their orc tribe could wipe out all the monsters on the opposite side and steal all the food they brought.

But behind these people stood the black dragon. The consequences of attacking them would be serious, and Hawthorne did not dare to try it easily.

"Zach, go tell the clan leader that people from the Black Dragon Clan are here!" Hawthorne and other orcs stayed to continue to watch over Nick and the others.

When Nick saw some orcs leaving the team, he knew that they were going to report to the leader of the orc tribe, so he waited patiently.

In fact, their team should have arrived last night, but they rushed to the location where the orcs were stationed before, and the orcs moved there two days ago, so Nick and the others spent a long time looking for it.

The orcs' new home.

Hawthorne looked at the thin goblin at the front with some surprise. It was rare to see so many monsters behind him obeying his orders.

Soon, the orc named Zach returned, and he lay down and said a few words in Hawthorne's ear, but his voice was too low for Nick to hear.

Then I saw Hawthorne stepping forward solemnly and saying: "The high priest invites distinguished guests to come and be our guests!"

High priest?

Nick didn't expect to be so lucky that he could meet the priest of the orc tribe. If he could convince the high priest of the orc tribe this time, then there would be no problem with other orc tribes around him.

So Nick was in a very good mood and took the two strong black apes over, but he was stopped by Hawthorne again.

"The high priest only invited you!" As he spoke, his eyes stayed on the black ape behind Nick.

"Why, are you worried that we will be detrimental to the high priest? Do you think that just the three of us can break through your defenses and threaten the high priest? Then you think too highly of us!" The underlying meaning of the words is: If you can't even connect us

If you can't stop it, then what use are you?

Nick is here on behalf of the Black Dragon Clan this time, so he has to maintain the powerful majesty of the Black Dragon Clan outside. After all, Nick represents the powerful side.

Hawthorne was silent for a moment. He still didn't like the people of the Black Dragon clan, because it was the appearance of the black dragon that made them abandon their previous hunting grounds and caused his tribe to enter a food crisis in advance.

But in the end he let Nick and the others in.

Arriving at the orc tribe's camp, all kinds of stench hit his face. Nick finally understood why Allen had always emphasized that open defecation was not allowed!

There are ready-made examples in front of us, this is too stinky!

But Nick didn't show it because that would make him look rude.

Under the leadership of Hawthorne, Nick entered the largest tent in the orc tribe. The things placed in this tent were really rough, and pendants made of animal skulls could be seen everywhere.

"Good day, envoy from the Black Dragon Clan!" As soon as they entered the tent, two orcs saluted Nick, and Nick didn't know which one was the high priest and which one was the clan leader.

But judging from where they were standing, the bearded man standing in front should be the high priest, and the man next to him was the leader of the orc tribe.

In the orc tribe, the status of the priest is higher than that of the clan leader.

"Good day!" Nick bowed and returned the greeting. The moment he bent down, he actually saw a human being here.

Humanity?!

At the invitation of the high priest, Nick sat on the side of the tent, opposite the human being.

Nick suddenly felt that he might be used as a gunman.

"I wonder why the envoy of the Black Dragon Clan came to the orc tribe?" asked the high priest sitting at the top.

"I came here to repair the relationship between the two races under the order of Lord Allen this time. However, this is a matter between our two races. Isn't it bad to have outsiders present?" Nick's meaning was very clear. That human being

You can go out now.

Gerald's eyes narrowed slightly. That damn old shaman just suddenly said that the fingerprints could be done later. It was important to meet the Black Dragon Clan's envoy first. This clearly meant that he wanted to increase the price!

However, the Black Dragon Clan targeted him as soon as they came up. Although it made him uncomfortable, it was exactly what he wanted.

"In that case, Shaman, my old friend, you first put your hand seal on it and then send someone to follow me to pick up the goods. It is not good for the children of the clan to be hungry." Gerald added the words again.

He took out a piece of paper.

"Brush!" Nick grabbed it in his hand.

Gerald didn't even react. He really didn't expect that skinny goblin to be so flexible.

"Are you doing business? Let me see!"

"Give it back!" Gerald yelled at Nick fiercely.

However, the two black apes behind Nick were not vegetarians. Just a fierce look made this greedy businessman put away his anger.

I was too nervous, and the goblin couldn’t understand it anyway! It’s okay! Gerard comforted himself in his heart.

But what Nick said next made him nervous!

"Three eight twenty-one, what a big joke!" The calculation process and other information on the piece of paper provided by Gerald were indeed recorded quite comprehensively, but only he knew how much manipulation had been done here.

Anyway, the orcs can't read, but today he met Nick, a goblin who can read human words.

"It turns out that you are in the fur business, and a piece of high-quality fur is only worth 60 kilograms of grain. How dare you?"

"Give it back to me!" Gerald roared loudly again. He never expected that this goblin could read!

He couldn't let Nick read any more, because it would expose everything he had done in the past to the orcs.

"Let him continue!"

The one who stopped him this time was an orc!

Originally, the shaman planned to sell all the animal skins to the Black Dragon Clan, in order to threaten Gerald to raise his stakes so that the orc tribe could obtain more food.

Then they didn't expect that Nick would target Gerald as soon as he came up. Just when the shaman was about to mediate between the two sides, Nick's words suddenly made him realize that the orc tribe might have been deceived by Gerald, a profiteer.

And he was seriously deceived!

"High Priest, do you need me to tell you the true price of a piece of fine fur in the human kingdom?"

"At least 50 silver coins!"

"Don't say that you can buy 1,000 kilograms of grain. Even in the era of reduced grain production, you can also buy 500 kilograms of grain. This human businessman only gives you 60 kilograms of grain in exchange! Even fools don't bring such things. Unfortunately, you have been deceived.

You don’t even know it yet!”

La Zan's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. If what Nick said is true, then he has been doing business with Gerald for several years. Hasn't he been deceived all along?

"Gerald!" Lazan yelled viciously, his voice almost coming from gritted teeth.

"Lazan, don't listen to his nonsense. We are old friends. How could I deceive you? Besides, it will cost a huge amount of freight for me to transport the fur back." Gerald explained in a panic.

Nick continued to read this record with relish. He felt that this piece of paper could make him laugh for a year.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! He was supposed to give 95 tons of grain, but after his calculation, he only gave 81 tons, which is a full 14 tons less!" Nick couldn't help but sigh. This human businessman had obviously taken so many advantages, but he didn't expect that he would give him 95 tons of food.

To withhold.

So greedy!

He is worthy of being a businessman of mankind!

A role model for us!

Worth learning! Mark the key points, I will do the same in the future.

However, Nick is now on the side of "justice", so he has to play the role of "whistleblower" well.

Nick: Yes, I am the messenger of justice sent by God! Evil human businessman, your end has come!

"Yo yo yo! Guess what paragraph I saw at the end?" Nick laughed and showed the paper to the two black apes behind him, but they shook their heads and said they didn't understand.

"Let me read it to you:

The orcs are indeed complete idiots. They have been fooled by me for so long and still foolishly believe me. I have written the truth here, but they just can't understand it.

Oh, it’s just for fun!”
