Chapter 49 Thinking
As the child of the Southern Lord, Chen Heng’s collective relationship with the Northern Lord is pretty good.
The beginning of this relationship originated from the friendship between Chen Heng and Kurudo.
Although it is not visible on the surface, in fact, the Kurudo family has a knight, the leader of the northern lords.
Therefore, through Kurudo, Chen Heng was able to enter the circle of the lords in the north and also visit the old knight Slid.
This is the first stepping stone.
Subsequently, in the past six months, in order to reverse his economic situation, Chen Heng reached cooperation with many northern lords.
The lords in the north are generally very poor.
This is because on the one hand, the north is close to the desert and requires years of preparation. On the other hand, the unique climate in the north has caused low land production there. On the same land, the grain production is far inferior to the south.
But this does not mean that there is no place worth developing in the north.
Previously, Chen Heng personally went to the territory where the Kurudo family was located to conduct field investigations, and finally came to some conclusions.
Although the North is poor, it is not without any production.
First of all, there are many furs from that place, as well as various alien slaves from the desert.
Fur can be sold to nobles, while those interracial slaves can also be widely used in various manors and work in them.
As long as these things can be transported to the south, you can make a large profit.
In the past, it was not that no one realized the value of it.
However, the terrain on the north is too complex and too closed, so the road itself is difficult to walk.
In addition, it is full of thieves and alien races, which will make it too dangerous.
If the caravan itself is not strong enough, it is easy to get lost in it, and the danger is too great.
In addition, the same thing is also found in the territory controlled by Princess Oliman.
The merchants measured the pros and cons and would rather go to Princess Oliman's territory at a higher price than go further to the lord's territory in the north.
Chen Heng also made some efforts to address this situation.
With the identity of Kurudo, he first made a high price statement and hired several lords from nearby roads, and walked by himself, barely opening up a small trade route.
With the relationship between Baron Kelly, he could purchase a large amount of food and iron that was urgently needed in the north at a low price, and he could also purchase fur and slaves from the lords in the north at a low price...
You can make a large profit in one round and one round.
A considerable portion of the profits earned will be handed over to the pockets of the lord in the north by hiring.
Within a round trip, a miniature interest ecosystem takes shape.
When a person can bring you benefits and benefits, your view of this person will be different from the past.
Chen Heng was originally a good person, and in this case, the relationship between the northern lords and him would naturally be better.
It can be expected that as time goes by, Chen Heng's influence among the lords in the north will become even more terrifying.
These are Chen Heng's bargaining chips and the power that can be borrowed.
At this moment, Chen Heng couldn't help but fall into thinking.
The current situation in Kutu country instantly emerged in his heart.
A few years ago, Princess Oliman's battle with another prince in Kutu became fierce.
The reason why this happens is that on the one hand, the tradition in Kutu is that the princes fight each other, and the winner is the king. On the other hand, the king of Kutu is seriously ill and has been paralyzed in bed.
Under such circumstances, supporters of both sides drew their swords to each other and the struggle became increasingly fierce.
There are only three children in this generation. Apart from Oliman and Vinare, the brother and sister who have the same father and mother, there is only another prince.
Among them, because of his late origin and his own personality, there is almost no hope.
The final candidate for the throne will most likely fall among Oliman and another prince.
The advantage of Vinare is that he is in the north, has his own army, and his mother is a queen, and has outstanding abilities, and has attracted much attention since childhood.
If it weren't for her, I'm afraid the battle for the throne would have come to an end long ago and would not have been fought for so long.
Another prince was born to a princess from a neighboring country. He was supported by the power of his mother. In addition, he was born very early and was the only male heir to the Kutu royal family today, so he received support from a considerable number of domestic nobles.
Overall, both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they may reach the top and generally maintain a balanced power.
And in this case, the importance of the power of the lords in the North is self-evident to them.
Although the lords of the northern land were closed and backward, they were also nobles after all. They had long fought with desert aliens, and their military strength was definitely the strongest group in Kutu.
Such a powerful group of forces can express their attitude to support a certain person, then the effect will be obvious.
Under this situation, Chen Heng, who was close to the northern lord and could affect the decision-making of the northern lord to a certain extent, his value suddenly increased.
Thinking of this, Chen Heng couldn't help but lit up.
"What's wrong?"
At this moment, in front of him, Kurudo was still standing there, looking at Chen Heng in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"fine."
Chen Heng turned around, smiled, and then said, "Is Teacher Coribo back?"
"not yet."
Kurudo shook his head and said this, and couldn't help but sigh: "According to the last reply, it may take a long time to come back."
"All right."
Chen Heng sighed, a little disappointed.
He was originally planning to start with Coripo to see if he could gain something.
After all, as a student of Coripo, Coripo is also a very important card in his hand.
If it can affect Coribpo's ideas to a certain extent, then his plans will be easily achieved to some extent.
As the Kingdom Guardian Knight, as long as Coripo is willing to make a public statement and support someone publicly, it will easily affect many people and bring huge advantages to one of them.
As a student of Coribo, this identity is also Chen Heng’s most important card at present.
Unfortunately, more than a month ago, Coripo left Kutu City because of some personal affairs. I don’t know where he was going and when he would come back.
Standing there, Chen Heng thought.
"Speaking of this, Princess Oliman doesn't enter the warehouse map on weekdays, but she suddenly came back recently. What kind of changes are there in this?"
Chen Heng's face was calm, and this thought suddenly flashed through his heart.
At this moment, he felt a feeling in his heart.
