Black Iron Crown

Chapter 54 The Royal Family Receives

In the street, said the worldly Sir Cord.

The patrol captain looked at the warrant with the coat of arms of the Moreland family and the ring of Reiner, and said, "Good sir, but this is not a place to talk, and I have no right to deal with this matter." , please follow me to see my officer!"

Sir Corder nodded, took the team and several carriages and followed.

The captain of the patrol team didn't take the initiative to talk to Sir Codd and the others, but was surprised by their excellent equipment and the gorgeous armor of the Scarlet Griffin Knights at first.

After walking for about half an hour, they came to the front of a small building and said, "Your Excellency, this is our outpost, and my centurion is inside!"

After speaking, he knocked on the door, and after getting permission, he said to Sir Corder and the others behind him: "Only you three can go in, the others have to wait outside!" He pointed at Sir Corder, Lumbare and Sir Wallas said that he could see that these three people were of relatively high status.

The three nodded and followed him in, and saw that the interior of the outpost was ordinary, with almost no decorations except for a pair of tables and chairs. On the chair, a young man who looked less than twenty years old was sitting where.

He has the same long blond hair as Lumbare. Although his skin is not so tanned, the lines contained in it make him look full of masculine strength.

"What's the matter?" The young man asked the patrol captain.

"It is such a baron, they claim to be from the Merland family from the Northland, and they came to the imperial capital with a batch of ordnance under the order of their baron, hoping to sell it to the royal family!"

"I hope I can do my best for the main line of the royal family!" Sir Corder said with a chest salute in time.

The young man nodded after hearing this, stroked the non-existent beard on his chin, and said, "You claim to be a branch of the Moland family?"

"Yes, Lord Baron, my grandfather was the sixth prince of the Ridka Kingdom. Before the Ridkar Kingdom unified the entire empire, he was entrusted as a baron in the northern border!"

The young man nodded and said: "So, maybe I should call you uncle. I am the younger brother of His Majesty the Emperor, the eldest son of Earl Wesley, Rebald, and I am your nephew according to seniority!"

That's right, if he wasn't a member of the royal family, he wouldn't have been able to become a centurion in command of a hundred people at the age of twenty.

Sir Corder said nothing, and he had nothing to say.

Seeing the silent and adulterous Sir Cord, Rebbard smiled and said, "Okay sir, tell me how much ordnance you have brought. If the amount is not too large, I can make the decision!"

"You know, His Majesty's body is just a little sick, and those damn lords everywhere have thoughts that they shouldn't have. We are expanding our army now, so the more armors the better!" Ruibad said.

"Your Excellency the Baron, we have brought five sets of excellent five-ring full-body chain armor, twelve sets of ordinary four-ring chain armor, and twenty-five sets of leather armor from Fort Murland!"

The price of these armors was calculated by Leiner when he was in Fort Moreland. The total value of these armors is estimated to be 70 to 80 gold coins, which is enough for him to pay the soldiers' salaries for a year.

However, Sir Codd inquired about the market price of the armor along the way. The five-ring buckle chain armor is basically about seven gold coins per set, and there is no less than six gold coins, and the four-ring buckle chain armor can also reach five. The price of gold coins, leather armor is much cheaper, at most one gold coin, and this is still after the price has skyrocketed dozens of times.

When leather armor was the cheapest, you could buy a leather armor of poor quality for eight or nine coppers.

Listening to Sir Codd's words, Rebbard frowned. It is true that this batch of armor is not a lot, but it can already arm five teams of ten or five lances.

The lance is a combat unit,

With knights as the center, squires as the medium combat power, and free people's soldiers as the bottom combat power, a combat unit of about a dozen to thirty people is formed, which is called a lance or a flag team.

This kind of transaction volume is no longer in his hands, and gold coins are quite a huge amount even for a noble like him.

Those merchants who traveled hundreds of kilometers to the imperial capital to do business may earn one or two gold coins for a single trip, which is still a relatively large transaction of goods.

"I'll take you to see my father. It's a pity that I can't make decisions on such an amount of transactions. You have to see my father and talk to him!" Rebard said.

In this way, under his leadership, Sir Codd and others followed him into the main castle of the royal family.

The main castle of the royal family is very large, and not only the royal family members live there, but also a large number of foreign nobles, as well as servants and servants, and people who can enter and leave the palace at will. As a royal earl, Earl Wesley not only has his own territory, but also There is also a room in the palace for him.

Now that the emperor was seriously ill, he led his elite army into the imperial capital to support the royal family against other great lords.

Arriving at Earl Weasley's room, the magnificent room was decorated with various valuable decorations, a few oil lamps were burning on the table, and sunlight shone into the room through the window.

"Father, they are the branches of the royal family in the north. The emperor wants to sell us a batch of armaments, but the amount involved is relatively large and I dare not make decisions, so I bring them to you!" Ruibad said.

"That's it!" Earl Weasley nodded and said, "For your armor, I can give you seven gold coins for each set of chain armor with five rings, five gold coins for each set of four rings, and five silver coins for each set of leather armor. , are you willing?"

Sir Corder pretended to think, but his heart was already full of joy. When they rushed to the imperial capital, they never expected to sell such a high price. According to the price given by the other party, they can get One hundred gold coins and five silver coins were much more than the seventy or eighty gold coins they were worth.

After "thinking" for a while, Sir Corder nodded and said, "Okay, my lord earl, we can accept the price you offered, after all, we are also a branch of the royal family!"

"The gold coins will be in your hands in two hours!" Earl Weasley didn't say much. He didn't know if he didn't want to talk to a lowly noble like Sir Corder, but he sent them away quickly anyway. .

Just as they were overwhelmed and pushed open the door to leave, Earl Weasley suddenly stopped them: "Tell your master, if he still has such excellent ordnance, he can buy it for me! I hope he can integrate the Northern Territory." He will get the status he deserves!"

After finishing speaking, he touched his golden hair and said, "Let your baron be more vigilant against Earl Zhebo. He has always been at odds with the royal family of Moreland, and they may take some actions against you!"
