Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

Especially when the Han Dynasty is so powerful here, the empire has no way to take advantage of it here, and when it can only talk legally, it is his family's turn to rise.

"Hmph! From now on, it won't be the time for me to look at people's faces." Duke Leonard said coldly, looking at the fleet in the port ahead.

The next day, Zach's boat sailed slowly towards Haiyan City.

Of course, before it got close to Haiyan City, it was discovered by the mermaid navy.

Zac immediately expressed his intention to come and planned to bribe them with gold coins, but the mermaid navy directly refused and asked them to wait where they were and report back.

"Zack, do you think they'll let us land?" a businessman asked. Zach shook his head lightly and said, "I'm not sure about this, maybe we'll have to give a lot of gold coins."

"Will it be a lot?" the businessman asked worriedly. If he wanted to give 200,000 pieces like Prince Nemo and the others, he would not be able to afford it.

"Probably not. After all, we are here to do business." Zach guessed, but he had no idea in his heart.

Half an hour passed, and the mermaid navy swam back to the vicinity of Zac and the others.

"My lord, can we land?" Zach asked impatiently.

The leading mermaid navy said, "Our Lord City Master said that he can see you."

"Great." Zach said excitedly.

"Wow...

Led by the mermaid navy, Zac headed towards the port of Haiyan City.

More than half an hour later, Zac's ship docked at the port, and the soldiers inspected it as usual before leading him to the castle hall. "My lord." Zach and the others saluted respectfully.

Niu Da looked at a few people for a while, and said, "Are you businessmen? From the Torola Orc Empire?"

"My lord, we came to visit you this time mainly to buy goods." Zach said truthfully.

......

"How much to buy? How long do you plan to stay in Haiyan City?" Niu Da asked directly.

.. A... Zach was confused by the question, but he didn't think about how much to buy. This is not something he can decide.

Niu Da took a sip of his tea and continued, "Since you don't have the right to make a decision, then send someone who can."

"Yes." Zach nodded and said, but he had no choice but to go back and report first.

He led his fellow businessmen, saluted Niu Da and then withdrew.

"Tap Tat Tat...

Zach and others were brought back to the port by the soldiers.

"Zach, are we leaving just like this?" A businessman was puzzled, thinking that since they are all here, why bother to ask directly.

Zach shook his head lightly and said, "There are many things we can't decide."

Rather than saying that there is no way, it would be better to say that they dare not. No one knows how much gold coins the Duke is willing to spend to buy goods. The most important point is that Zach is not familiar with the goods in Haiyan City at all.

Besides food and wine, what else? It's impossible to come all the way to buy food, right? It's already eaten before it's shipped to the Torola orc empire. ...People nodded, and several of them boarded the boat and returned to Lin Gucheng.

"Second update, (V). Please customize, please support." On,

Chapter 1227: Four Elf Sisters. (3 more for customization)

"Clah la la...

At eleven o'clock the next morning, Zach's boat returned to the fleet.

"How?" Duke Leonard asked urgently.

Zach looked distressed and said, "The Lord of Haiyan City asked you to talk about it in person."

Duke Leonard frowned slightly, and said, *what did you say.

"I asked what goods we need to buy and how long we will stay in Haiyan City."

Zach said the truth.

.... Duke Leonard was silent, recalling what the caravan brought back.

The next interview will represent whether they will stay or not. If the lord of Haiyan City does not agree with their landing, there is no choice but to hand over the gold coins to Prince Nemo and the others.

"Is there any movement on the merchant ships of the Larson Elf Empire?" Duke Leonard asked. "four five seven"

"Not yet." The knight responded.

Zach looked at the merchant ships of the Larson Elf Empire and said, "My lord, do you want to bring them together?"

"Well, as long as there are more people, there will naturally be more goods purchased." Duke Leonard nodded.

"But, will people from the Larson Elf Empire go to Haiyan City with us?" Zach asked puzzled.

Duke Leonard said indifferently, "Tell them some news, do you think they will be unwilling to cooperate?"

"Will be very willing." Zach suddenly realized.

The landing fee charged by the Marquis of Leicester is much more expensive than that of Prince Nemo and the others. The other party is definitely unwilling to be robbed.

"You go and talk to them yourself." Leonard waved his hand.

"Yes, my lord." Zach responded immediately.

Ten minutes later, Zac left the merchant ship and took a small boat close to the merchant ship of the Larson Elf Empire.

Zac stayed on the sea for a while, and the Larson Elf Empire knight who reported let him board the main ship.

"What's the matter?" Rose asked indifferently.

When the elves saw the orcs, they would not have a good face.

She is the leader of the merchants of Larson's elf empire. The freckles on the tip of her nose make her very recognizable among the elves.

"Miss Rose, the Duke wants to discuss cooperation with you." Zac said directly.

The two countries are originally hostile, and the competition between businessmen is more intense, so it is better not to talk too much nonsense.

"Cooperation? What cooperation?" Rose sat up straight.

Zach lowered his voice and said, "Our Lord Duke has a way, which allows us to land and repair without spending coins, and at the same time buy goods."

"Haiyan City, right?" Rose guessed, in fact, she had already thought of this, but she hadn't figured out how to face Haiyan City.

"Yes, our Lord Duke is going to go to the interview in the afternoon. If we buy enough goods, there is a great hope that we can land for repairs." Zach used his eloquence.
