- The wind in the quiet night slowly blew through the grassland of Talos Plains. In the distance there was the red light of a bonfire, and there were faint sounds of people and horses. Surrounding the bonfire is a circle of carriages filled with heavy goods. These carriages form a circular formation, surrounding the people camping in it. This is the most obvious way of the northern drifting caravans in the southern plains. The trade route they took passed through a long grassland, and the carriages filled with goods could form a vehicle array, which could not only protect against wolves, but also be used to defend against those grassland bandits with malicious intentions.
With the establishment of the Kingdom of Athens, the entire southern plain became increasingly prosperous.
A large amount of food products has made the Kingdom of Athens a powerful foreign trade power in the world. Humanity has also obtained a large number of precious resources, weapons, equipment, knowledge, etc. from dwarves, elves, and even other races through trade in food. However, the prosperous trade also brought about a problem, that is, more and more bandits began to appear. They made a living by robbing and attacking caravans, which brought a lot of trouble to the trade throughout the southern plains.
¡¡¡¡¡¡
"Where am I?" Murphy was awakened by the hearty chatter and laughter outside.
After waking up, he first rubbed his head with his hands and felt a bit of pain and numbness, but then he recalled everything. He looked around, listened to the lively discussion about life outside, and said softly: "Have you returned to the southern plains? It seems that the transmission distance has not deviated much."
When summoned to the Calradia plane, because Murphy is used as the teleportation coordinate point, precise teleportation can be carried out.
But when returning to the realm of the Kingdom of Athens, Murphy could only rely on the unique sensing ability between the Olympus gods to make a rough judgment. The "Total War" auxiliary system is in his body, and his location is the coordinate point for teleportation. Therefore, the purpose of his trip back is to find a way to establish an accurate plane teleportation coordinate in the Kingdom of Athens. After all, he It is impossible to stay in the Calradian plane forever and serve as a fixed-point transmission bridge between the two planes.
If possible, he will also establish a stable teleportation coordinate position in this plane.
"Are you awake?" A big man with a beard walked into the tent. He was holding a bowl of thick soup made from animal bones. The aroma was overflowing. A big man with a rough face put the bowl in He handed it to Murphy and said, "Drink some soup first. You have been unconscious for a whole day."
"Well, thank you." Murphy nodded, took the bowl and drank it in one gulp.
He himself exists as a plane teleportation coordinate point, so the troublesome thing is that if he wants to plane teleport, he cannot do it as easily and casually as other summoned people. It would be fine if his body stayed in the Calradian plane, but once his body entered the plane channel. When he left the space where the plane of Calradia was located, the "Total War" auxiliary system naturally left that plane with him ¡â This meant that one of the coordinate points was lost during the plane transfer, and then it was like now. , he did not teleport directly to the Kingdom of Athens, but some small deviations occurred.
"Where is this?" Murphy finished drinking the soup and looked up and asked.
The rough-faced man smiled. He replied: "This is Talos Plains. We are a caravan heading to the Eagle's Nest Dwarf Fortress. We found you unconscious on the road, so we brought you up."
"Eyrie dwarves? Are you going to Eagle's Nest Castle?" Murphy said thoughtfully after hearing this.
The man nodded and said, "Yes. Why are you unconscious here?"
Murphy did not answer, but showed a kind smile and said softly: "Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble."
Hearing this, the big man stared at Murphy for a long time, then smiled and patted him on the shoulder and went out.
At this time, the humans in the southern plains are still relatively united, especially after the establishment of the Kingdom of Athens. As one of the weaker races on this plane, humans must be firmly united to develop and grow. Humans like them who dare to go out to run other races' trade routes are good experts with a few brushes in their hands. If they encounter other caravans being attacked in the wild, or see humans in distress, they will not stand idly by. .
The more these humans come into contact with other races, the more they know the importance of unity as a race.
After Murphy walked out of the tent. Only then did I realize that there were really many people outside, probably no less than three or four hundred people. They were divided into three small circles, and there was a large circle of carriages surrounding them. He could tell at a glance that this was a joint caravan. Generally speaking, it was very dangerous to run a business alone, and there was also a shortage of manpower. Several trustworthy caravansIt is the safest and most secure way for Ren's caravan to join forces and go on the road together.
"Eyrie Castle?" Murphy closed his eyes and thought for a moment, seeming to have some impression of this place.
Most of the cities built by the dwarves are named after fortresses, and the Eagle's Nest seems to be one of them. However, the Eagle's Nest seems to be located near the Salma Basin, passing through the territory of the Centaurs on the way. Before Murphy established the Kingdom of Athens, he basically arranged the caravans between other races, but it seemed that these people in front of him were not the royal caravans in the Kingdom of Athens.
They are more like a group of wandering businessmen united together, and many of them are more like mercenaries than businessmen.
For example, the rugged man who just came in to see Murphy had a strong mercenary aura about him. Murphy was probably one of the first mercenary leaders who accumulated wealth and then started to look like a businessman.
This change has actually been in Murphy's estimation for a long time. After all, the mercenaries may not be willing to continue doing this dangerous business after accumulating wealth.
As mercenaries, the people they come into contact with the most are merchants. Naturally, after accumulating wealth, they gradually develop into trade. The trade routes within the Southern Plains have been controlled by the original merchants. These mercenaries who have turned to trade can only target other races outside the Southern Plains. This kind of cross-racial trade is more dangerous, but The rewards are equally astonishing. For these mercenaries who have fought bloody battles, this cross-racial trade method is more suitable for them, because many races prefer these straightforward mercenaries to cunning businessmen.
In just a moment, Murphy guessed the recent changes in the southern plains accurately.
In fact, as he had guessed, after the initial booming mercenary industry, a large number of mercenaries began to turn to other aspects after accumulating wealth, and the most obvious one was the caravan, which traveled throughout the Kingdom of Athens. The caravan can be said to have experienced explosive growth. Some of the mercenaries were originally engaged in escort tasks. Naturally, they knew very well about these things. As long as they had the original accumulation of funds, they could completely transform into businessmen.
It¡¯s just that I used to escort others, but now I¡¯m escorting myself!
"If this development continues, the mercenaries in this world will probably develop into an organization similar to the Mercenary City, right?" Murphy thought in his mind as he looked at the men who were eating meat and drinking from big bowls. .
There are at least one or two hundred people in this joint caravan who have obvious characteristics of mercenaries. They are equipped with swords, scars and murderous intent. They are all veterans of fighting.
"I don't know how far the domestic trade in Athens has developed. If the time is right, maybe we can develop the bank first." He looked at the people in front of him and said to himself.
Establishing a bank has long been in Murphy's plan, but this must have a premise, that is, the development of local trade has reached a critical point. The large amount of trade has prompted merchants to need a simpler and more comprehensive transaction method. Of course, there is no need to say much about the benefits of establishing a bank. Even according to Murphy's estimation, judging from the rules of this world, if the bank's plan can really be promoted, it may not even be able to condense a [wealth] priesthood!
After a trip to Calradia, the requirement to establish a bank became much easier for Murphy.
Murphy can completely use the secret mark in arcana as a confidentiality measure for the bank. The unique secret mark can ensure that the bank far exceeds the level of this era. Even if necessary, Murphy can also use the name of the Kingdom of Athens. The United Temple and the Mage Academy jointly established a national bank and spread the bank's exchange points to major cities throughout the southern plains!
With the resources of the Mage Academy, he can use the unique secret mark and the corresponding secret certificate to guarantee the exchange of small amounts of gold and silver rolls and large amounts of bank deposits.
Although there are still many specific matters to use the impartiality of the temple for supervision, Murphy believes that it will not be difficult to promote it.
With the development of world trade, it is time to promote gold and silver rolls (silver notes).
¡¡¡¡¡¡
"Tap tap tap!"
Murphy, who was deep in thought, suddenly heard the sound of galloping horse hooves, and then the sound became louder and louder. Soon, a large group of fully armed centaurs appeared outside the caravan formation.
The mercenaries in the car formation immediately became nervous. There was a sound of swords being unsheathed, and they formed formations and were on guard carefully.
"Damn it! It's the centaur clan with gray temples!" The rugged man who Murphy had met before glanced at the centaur that suddenly appeared outside.The troops cursed angrily and shouted: "This is not our ally! Get ready to fight!"
"Ready to fight!"
"Ready to fight!"
The roars of the mercenary captains rang out all around. Everyone picked up their weapons and lined up behind the carriage, quickly getting ready for battle.
At this moment, Murphy frowned and looked at the group of centaurs outside.
"Something must have happened when I left!" Murphy looked at the murderous Centaur troops. When he was still in Athens, the Centaur clan and humans had always maintained a good relationship, and they would never fight each other with swords. What's more, such a blatant attack on the caravan! He thought to himself: "Could it be that something big happened within the Centaur clan?"
