Wizard Lords: Building an Empire starts from the panel

In the Kingdom of Fontaine, nearly half of the extraordinary equipment was acquired by the kingdom's ten elite standing corps. A considerable proportion of the remaining production capacity was used by the great nobles to arm their own private armies.

There are only a few thousand pieces of extraordinary equipment that can normally flow into the market every year and be divided among small and medium-sized nobles, churches, wizard associations and other forces.

Except for those extraordinary people who were born as ordinary people but had strength and talent, it was difficult for them to obtain extraordinary equipment except for seeking shelter from nobles, royal families, wizard associations, and churches.

As a result, Li Wei opened his mouth and said that he had six sets of extraordinary equipment and one hundred and twenty pieces of extraordinary equipment a year.

This is not a matter of money. Viscount Ome is good at business and he is not short of money, but even he dare not guarantee that he can get so much extraordinary equipment in a year.

And the prices offered by Levi are really too low.

The price of basic extraordinary equipment is generally around 180 gold coins per piece, and the specific price is determined by its actual quality and type.

A two-piece set like Li Wei's, one for attack and one for defense, starts at 400 gold coins.

Not to mention that there is a war going on right now, and the prices of extraordinary equipment and extraordinary props have soared. Even if Levi sells him a set of 500 gold coins from Viscount Ome, it is a reasonable price.

"Levi, it's not the big brother that I don't believe in you, it's the source of your shit~~

If you can guarantee that these extraordinary equipment are obtained from regular channels, I am willing to pay 500 gold coins a set to purchase sixty sets of such equipment. "

"Haha, don't worry, brother, I won't trick anyone but you.

The goods were definitely not obtained through any shady means. The price I paid for the goods was actually three hundred gold coins per set. But because of our relationship, I won't make any money from you. "

Seeing that Viscount Ome was still hesitant, Levi, who was sitting in the chair, leaned forward slightly and said in a suppressed voice:

"I know brother's doubts. I guarantee that this batch of goods does not come from within the kingdom, let alone the Orc Empire."

"It is of course nonsense to say that the extraordinary comes from the orc empire. Those uncivilized beasts can't even use extraordinary equipment themselves, let alone export it.

But are you sure that these equipments do not come from within the kingdom, such as a certain legion or something? "

The Kingdom of Fontaine only produces a certain amount of extraordinary equipment every year. It can only be a little but not a lot. There are too many monks and too little food. Everyone is living a tight life.

This kind of channel that pops up suddenly and can provide a large amount of extraordinary equipment usually has a big pit behind it.

For example, it flowed out from a certain legion's arsenal in the kingdom.

It's a good thing that it hasn't been found out. If it is found out, it will be enough to make the nobles involved in the case bankrupt.

"Brother, haven't you noticed that the equipment of the elite knights under my command is all standard, but it is different from the mainstream standard equipment in the kingdom?"

"Are you smuggling from the Hessian Kingdom? This is too far. Your territory is in the northwest of the kingdom, and the Hessian Kingdom is due east of our kingdom.

No, the price is not right either. It was smuggled over from the Hessian Kingdom, and the cost price was at least 450 gold coins. "

"Brother, please guess again."

"Could it be the dwarves of the Pale Highlands? This is not very realistic. There is such a large blood-stained wasteland in between, and the dwarves cannot achieve such a stable supply once a month.

Not to mention the long journey, the blood-stained wasteland is inhabited by many bandits, sand people, snake people, and barbarians. The risk of the caravan crossing is particularly high. "

"Brother, you are really a dwarf from the Pale Highlands!"

Levi slapped his thigh with a wonderful expression, as if you guessed it right.

"Oh? I didn't expect that I guessed it right, but how did you contact the dwarf?

In my impression, dwarves are bad-tempered and hard-tempered, and they are also very conservative.

They live in the underground cities in the Pale Highlands all year round and rarely take the initiative to communicate with the outside world. For things like doing business and trade, the guys from the Western Region took the trouble to do door-to-door sales, so they managed to establish some trading channels.

Are you connected with the nobles of the Western Region? Did you get the extraordinary equipment produced by the dwarves from them?

But the price shouldn’t be so cheap? "

"Hehe, brother guessed wrong this time. This time I got in touch with a dwarf elder."

Then, Mr. Levi made up a somewhat coincidental but reasonable story based on his huge reading of novels in his previous life and some information obtained from his last chat with the noble Baron Mira in the Western Region.

The Thunder Anvil Tribe, one of the five dwarf tribes in the Pale Highlands, wants to cast a gold statue for a Sanctuary dwarf. They need to consume about eight tons of gold, equivalent to 1.6 million gold coins.

If the gold coins were only used as a trade, then these 1.6 million gold coins would not be a big burden to the Thunder Anvil tribe.

After all, the five major dwarf tribes on the Pale Highlands are called tribes. In fact, in terms of population and strength, they are basically equal to the Kingdom of Fontaine at a 30-40% discount.

But the Thunder Anvil tribe wants to cast a full 1.6 million gold coins into a statue, which means that there are 1.6 million less gold coins on the market that can be circulated.

Even though four other large tribes helped bear the impact of the withdrawal of 1.6 million gold coins from circulation, the deflation and money shortage it caused was almost visible to the naked eye.

Under this situation, Thunder Anvil took the initiative to send manpower, hoping to increase exports to the Kingdom of Fontaine and create a trade surplus, thereby relieving the deflation and money shortage in the Pale Highlands, especially Thunder Anvil.

The above information is all true. It is not made up by Li Wei, but what the grain transport officer rescued by Li Wei, Baron Mira from the Western Region, told him in a casual conversation.

Then Mr. Levi began to use his imagination and make up stories.

The elder in charge of finance in Thunder Anvil sent out all his sons, hoping that they could establish a business road that could bring in a large amount of gold coins.

One of his sons unfortunately encountered a sandstorm while riding a two-headed dragon across the quicksand sea. Both the man and the two-legged dragon were fine, but they lost their way in the sandstorm and went astray.

"They were supposed to fly to the Western Territory and accidentally flew to the Monterey Territory located in the northwest corner of the kingdom. When they were attacked by a group of low-level flying monsters, they were caught by my private army and rescued. "

"You are so lucky!"

"Haha, just so so.

The second son of the dwarf elder promised me that in the next year, some basic-level extraordinary equipment can be transported through the bipedal dragon every month.

The price of each set of extraordinary equipment is three hundred gold coins. He only accepts cash transactions. In addition, some extraordinary materials can be used to offset a small amount of payment. . "

Looking at Li Weizhi's satisfied expression, Viscount Ome felt that it didn't seem like a fake, as if his brother-in-law-to-be had really been lucky enough to hit a wave of wealth.

Dear readers, I'm sorry, I'm late.
