56. Rune Board Market

On the eve of Harvest Festival, a knights' coalition organized by the sons of the rich and noble families of the imperial capital set off from the imperial capital, arrived directly at San Carlos City on a magic airship, and then entered Angela's multiple planes through the Babington family's portal.
This is the third batch of Imperial Legion to reinforce Angela's multi-plane since this year.
Louis finally led ten Knights to join the Knights' coalition as he wished, and left the imperial capital and rushed to the front battlefield.
This coalition army gathered nearly 70 knights in the assembly. The legion had about 60,000 knight entourages, and nearly 100,000 heavily armored infantry joined the logistics support regiment and undertake the logistics support tasks of this army. In addition, this coalition of knights also incorporated three mage groups. The reinforcements were large in scale. The princes of these wealthy and noble families wanted to quickly end the Angela multi-plane war with a destructive force.
Recently, some celebrities in the magic newspapers have been discussing the situation in front of Angela Domain. Most nobles believe that the Crown Prince Charlie led the most elite Royal Knights to work hard in Angela Domain for more than a year. At present, the Green Empire Army and the Nakma Legion should be evenly matched in terms of military strength. Therefore, once the luxurious reinforcements organized by the sons of the wealthy and noble families enter Angela Domain, they will inevitably win the Angela Domain.
These noble sons who have the hope of becoming Dukes in the future can not only express their loyalty to His Highness Charlie, but also come to Angela to pick fruits from multiple planes, which were originally a fruit of victory shared by the Babington family and His Highness Charlie.
The day before departure, I prepared all the single-attribute magic crossbow arrows that Louis needed and personally sent them to the Emerald Bay Trading Company.
According to the business manager Ander, Louis probably arrived in the small airport town this morning, and now he should be on the magic airship.
Louis had a detailed explanation before leaving. Once the shop received these single-attribute magic crossbow arrows, it was necessary to define this batch of supplies as the highest priority military supplies waiting to be transported. Unexpectedly, Louis was so anxious. It seemed that His Majesty Charles wanted to pull His Highness Charlie out of the quagmire of plane war as soon as possible.
Of course, in addition to providing Louis with a batch of single-attribute magic crossbow arrows, I also promised to supply 7,000 servings of marching rations.
These marching rations are composed of canned lunch meat and meat floss bricks. Many soldiers of the Green Empire firmly believe that eating these foods from the Pai Plateau orc tribe will make people more brave. Perhaps affected by the victory of the Jero Plane War. This rumor has been derived from several versions of the imperial capital. It is obviously nonsense, but it can no longer be controlled after it is spread. A large number of people believe it.
Louis didn't believe it, but he couldn't resist some of his structural knights believed that the price of this kind of marching ration was not much more expensive than the regular marching ration in the Green Empire. It was even slightly cheaper when it was not sold before, so Louis decided to buy some.
During this period, canned lunch meat and meat floss bricks wrapped in oil paper were sold out in major grocery stores in the capital. Although magic airships arrive at the airport town from Gurudin on the Pai Plateau every week, these imported products from the orc tribes are still in short supply. Many magic merchants are waiting at the gate of the Qige Trading Company. In order to occupy a good seat, they even sleep in trucks. After all, in autumn, the weather gradually becomes colder, and it is not good to live in a magic caravan and sleep on the streets.
The airship brought lunch meat, meat floss bricks and magic parchment from the city of Gurudin, and then transported wheat flour, whetstones and daily necessities from the imperial capital to the city of Gurudin.
Marvin sent holy silver crossbow arrows to the orcs on the Pai Plateau, and then transported a whole ship of corpse turbulent oil from Gurudin City.
In recent months, he and Si Pei have been living in the cabin of a magic airship. Marvin said that he was tired of the sunrise and sunset, and the clouds rolled and unfolded. The magic airship floated above the sea of clouds, flying along the northwest wind belt, and sometimes stayed in the cabin for a few days. As long as you are not seasick, this kind of traveling day is very comfortable.
The second batch of saint silver crossbow arrows have been stored in the warehouse of the Qige Trading Company. Ma Wen and Sipei went to the Pai Plateau again and were stopped by me. Since we have established a connection with the orcs we contacted in Gurudin City, even if this trade route is opened, there is no need for Ma Wen to work so hard between the two cities. There are many managers at the scholastic bank, and it is no problem to find a smarter person to transport these saint silver crossbow arrows.
Noah and Marvin and I sat in a restaurant on the food street on the west side of the Royal Academy of Magic. Looking at the pedestrians passing through the window through the glass curtain wall, Marvin talked about the orc tribe this time: "Almost all tribes are recruiting orc warriors to fight for the Death Forest. The orc tribe on the edge of the Death Forest has begun to migrate to the northern wasteland. They need to place the tribe camp before the first snowfall, and they also need a lot of daily necessities, wood, cold-proof felt, heating fuel, etc."
I know that what restricts the migration of orc tribes is ultimately the cold-proof tents and heating fuel, and the vast grassland for cattle and sheep to eat.
The Death Forest is located at the foot of the mountains in the southern foothills of the Pai Plateau. Although the southern foothills of the Pai Plateau will be blocked by the southern wind from the Salta province of the Green Empire, the winter on the edge of the Death Forest in the southern part of the Pai Plateau is not very sad. Even in the coldest season, dead grass for cattle and sheep can still be found in some valleys, which is obviously different from the northern foothills of the Pai Plateau.
The Utulu River crosses the northern wilderness. Although the water and grass are in the banks of the Utulu River, heavy snow will cover the entire northern wilderness in winter. All the weeds are covered with thick snow. Large herds of cattle and sheep are almost unable to spend the long winter in the northern wilderness.
Although I have been transporting a large amount of cheap food such as wheat flour to the orc tribe recently, the supplies that magic airships can transport there are still very limited after all.
When I heard that the Orc Tribe would think about migrating the northern wasteland one after another, I knew that this winter this year was not easy for the Orc Tribe.
"What are the countermeasures for the orcs in Gurudin City?" I asked with a frown.
I spread a map of magic parchment on the desktop and used a charcoal pen to paint a heavy shadow near the forest of death.
Ma Wen was silent for a moment, shook his head slowly and said, "Now there are calls for fighting the undead tribe to the end. A large number of orc warriors are gathering south, and only the beast girls and children are moving north."
The reason why the Death Forest is called this is because there are undead creatures hidden in the forest.
I said to Marvin: "The undead legion invaded the Pai Plateau. The vanguard should be a cannon fodder legion composed of skeletons and zombies. The orc tribe should accumulate some supplies when it wipes out this undead legion."
I don’t know when Ma Wen learned to smoke. It shouldn’t be too short to see that he picked up his pipe. He stuffed the walnut pipe with thin shreds of tobacco, then lit a match to ignite the smoke and took three sips in a row. The red sparks on the tobacco spread suddenly.
He coughed lightly before saying to me: "You are right. Don't you bring back a whole ship of corpse tincture oil here? Where do you think these corpse tincture oil came from? Do you think the swamp zombies drowned there? I tell you that there has been no big corpse tides there in the past few years. It should be that the swamp zombies there have been almost been clearing out. Some time ago, even the orc tribe was in extremely shortage of corpse oil. Isn't it because of the scarcity of swamp zombies?"
Under the smoke, he looked a little more energetic, and then said to me: "Now! You have also seen it. I brought back a whole ship of corpse oil, which were refined from zombies crawling out of the forest of death."
So I said, "So, the orc tribe shouldn't be short of magic crystals?"
"What do you think? Could it be..." Seeing that I suddenly mentioned the magic crystal, Ma Wen immediately understood my plan. He widened his eyes and asked me: "Do you want to transport those 'fire gathering technique' rune boards to the Pai Plateau and sell them to the orc tribe over there?"
I nodded and said, "Once those orc tribes migrate, the dry cow dung accumulated through hard work in summer will not be taken away. If the new camp does not have sufficient fuel, I don't know how many orcs will freeze to death in this severe winter. These copper hot pots will at least not freeze them to death, but the premise is that these orc tribes must have sufficient magic crystals, otherwise these copper hot pots will be transported there, which is no different from ordinary iron pots."
On the desolate Pai Plateau, dry cow dung is a must-have fuel for most orcs every day. Orcs will pick up the cow dung on the pasture in summer and dry it. When it is winter to keep warm, they can eat raw meat in summer, but they cannot be free of fire in winter.
Marvin frowned and said to me: "I don't know the rest of the Pai Plateau, but the magic crystals in Gurudin City are also worthy of being depreciated. I basically bartered there. I have also considered whether to exchange some magic crystals for them before, but considering that the Green Empire is also flooding with magic crystals and has been depreciating continuously, I have not paid attention to this information."
His eyes looked out the window. The food street was filled with colorful flags. All the street lamps were painted with colorful oil paint. Some shops hung some colorful lights on the plaques early. Ma Wen said:
"The Harvest Festival is coming soon. It is estimated that in order to celebrate the grand festival, the lords of all parties will definitely take some actions against the dark forces of the Abyss Prison. It is also a headache to say that everyone on the Empire is looking forward to the news of victory back on the plane, but the lords and merchants who hold a large number of magic crystals in their hands do not want to hear the news of victory frequently. Plane wars can be won, so it is best not to publish information, because once the news of victory comes one after another from each plane, it means that a large number of magic crystals will pour into the magic market of the Green Empire, causing the magic crystals on the imperial capital to continue to depreciate."
I rubbed my nose and said to Marvin:
"Prepare, except for transporting the Holy Silver Crossbow arrows, the other cargo holds are loaded with copper hot pot and fire gathering rune boards, and the copper hot pot and 'fire gathering' rune boards on Murray are coordinated by me."
Noah sat aside, listening quietly as I and Marvin discussed the trade with the orcs. When I heard that in addition to the Holy Silver Crossbow Arrow, I actually wanted to support a large number of copper hotpots to the orc tribe, I couldn't help but sigh:
"Gija, you really spare no effort in supporting the Pai Plateau Orc Tribe."
I smiled and didn't explain much.
Ying Li, Shirley Newman, Sipe, Helena and Becky sat on another table playing cards. They were not involved in our topic. I originally had an appointment with Alya to have afternoon tea together, but Ying Li's magic experiment class was just postponed until tomorrow. I was going to go to the Angry Herb Plantation on the Unknown Island to collect magic herbs, so I waited for me at the restaurant.
It was no secret that I traveled with the caravan when I was a child. It was Qige who had trade with the orcs on the Pai Plateau. She opened up this trade route and almost monopolized the imported products of the orc tribe on the Pai Plateau in the imperial capital. I just helped her manage the business, and it was normal for the orcs to provide some shortage supplies to the orcs.
After finalizing what happened next with Marvin, I rushed to Wuming Island with Ying Li to collect magic herbs that have entered the maturity stage. Ying Li has recently transplanted some magic herbs from the Wuming Island plantation one after another. Almost every day, I have to go to Wuming Island to observe the magic herbs from the Wuming Island, and at the same time use limited time to collect.
At this time, I would take out some design drawings given to me by the scholar of Yekis and constantly draw these magic patterns on the magic parchment paper.
Yekis scholars always like to make temporary changes to their magic designs, which is a very taboo thing for inscriptionists. We all know that the magic pattern lines on the magic pattern array are very strict in terms of the smoothness of the lines and the depth of the strokes when engraving. Once an inherent pattern is formed, it will not be easily changed. A slight change may lead to the failure of the magic pattern array. The new magic pattern array must undergo repeated experiments to succeed, which will be a very long process.
This kind of thing is boring, but I am used to it, and I have figured out the evolutionary rules of some magic runes.
At night, I came to the door of the Scholars Laboratory of Yekis and happened to see Lord Bruce's magic assistant waiting for me on the laboratory terrace. When he saw me walking up from the steps, he stood up and smiled at me and said, "Marquis Moxiang is on Lord Bruce's side. Lord Bruce heard that you have something to want Marquis Moxiang, so he sent me to invite you..."
