The wind of the still night is blowing slowly across the grassland of Taros plain. In the distance, there is the red light of the campfire, and some voices and horses are faintly heard. Around the campfire was a circle of carriages, which were full of heavy goods. These carriages formed a circular array, which surrounded the camping people ♀ It is the most obvious way for the caravan to drift northward in the southern plain. The caravan full of goods can form a caravan array, which can protect the wolves and the grassland bandits.
With the establishment of the kingdom of Athens, the whole southern plain became more and more prosperous.
A large number of food products made Athens a powerful country in the world''s foreign trade. Through trade, mankind also obtained a lot of precious resources, weapons, equipment, knowledge and so on from dwarves, elves and even other races. However, the prosperous trade also brought about a problem, that is, more and more robbers began to appear. They robbed and attacked caravan for a living, which brought a lot of trouble to the trade of the whole southern plain.
………………
"Where am I?" Murphy was awakened by the sound of laughter outside.
When he woke up, he first rubbed his head with his hands and felt a trace of pain and numbness, but then he recalled everything. He looked around, listened to the heated discussion of life outside, and whispered, "have you returned to the southern plains? It doesn''t look like there''s a big deviation in the transmission distance. "
When calling to the kaladian plane, because Murphy is used as the transmission coordinate point, accurate transmission can be carried out.
However, when returning to the plane where the kingdom of Athens is located, Murphy can only make a general judgment by relying on the unique sensing ability of Olympus《 The auxiliary system of "total war" is in his body, and his position is the coordinate point of transmission. Therefore, the purpose of his trip back is to find a way to establish an accurate plane of transmission coordinates in the kingdom of Athens. After all, he can''t always stay in the kaladian plane as a bridge between the two planes.
If possible, he can also establish a stable transmission coordinate position on this plane.
"Are you awake?" A bearded man came into the tent with a bowl of thick soup in his hand. It was made of animal bones, and the fragrance was overflowing ♀ A rough faced man handed the bowl to Murphy and said, "have some soup first. You''ve been in a coma all day
"Well, thank you." Murphy nodded, took the bowl and drank it.
He himself exists as a coordinate point of plane transmission, so the trouble is that if he wants to carry out plane transmission, he can''t be as easy as other called people. It''s OK that his body stays in the plane of caladia, but once his body enters the channel of plane. When leaving the space where the galactic plane is located, the auxiliary system of Total War naturally follows him out of that plane ♀ It means that one of the coordinate points is lost in the plane transmission, and then, as it is now, it is not directly transmitted to the kingdom of Athens, but there are some small deviations.
"Where is this?" Murphy finished the soup and asked, looking up.
The rough faced man smiles. He replied, "this is the plain of taros. We are the caravan to the dwarf fortress of eagle''s nest. We found you comatose on the way, so we brought you up
"The eagle''s nest dwarf? Are you going to eagle nest castle? " Murphy heard the words and thought deeply.
The man nodded and said, "yes. Why are you in a coma here? "
Murphy did not answer, just showed a kind smile, whispered: "don''t worry, I won''t bring you any trouble."
The big man looked at Murphy half loud, then patted him on the shoulder with a smile and went out.
At this time, human beings in the Southern Plain were relatively United. Especially after the establishment of the kingdom of Athens, human beings, as one of the disadvantaged races in this plane, had to be firmly united to develop and grow up. People like them, who dare to go out and trade with other races, are all good hands with a few brushes in their hands. When they encounter other caravans being attacked in the wild, or when they see people in distress, they will not stand by.
The more human beings have contact with other races, the more aware they are of the importance of uniting one race.
When Murphy gets out of the tent. I found that there are really many people outside. I''m afraid there are no less than three or four hundred people, divided into three small groups ♀ They were surrounded by a big circle of carriages. He saw at a glance that this is a united caravan. Generally speaking, it is very dangerous to run business alone, and there is also a shortage of manpower. It is the safest and safest way for several trustworthy caravan to go on the road together.
"Eagle nest castle?" Murphy closed his eyes and thought for a moment, as if he had some impression of the place.
Most of the cities built by the dwarves are named after fortresses, and yingchaobao seems to be one of them. However, this yingchaobao seems to be located near the Salma basin, passing through the territory of centaurs on the way. Before Murphy established the kingdom of Athens, the caravans that would travel between other races were basically arranged by him, but it seems that these people in front of him were not royal caravans in the kingdom of Athens.
They are more like a group of wandering merchants, many of whom are more like mercenaries than merchants.
For example, the rough guy who just came in to see Murphy has a strong sense of mercenary. Murphy is probably the first one who accumulated wealth and began to change into a mercenary leader like a businessman.
In fact, this kind of change has long been in Murphy''s estimation. After all, the mercenaries may not be willing to continue to do this dangerous business after they have accumulated wealth.
As mercenaries, businessmen are the ones who have the most contact with them. Naturally, after accumulating wealth, they gradually develop to trade. The trade routes inside the southern plains have been controlled by the original merchants, and the mercenaries who turned to trade had to focus on other races outside the southern plains ♀ Cross ethnic trade is dangerous, but the return is also amazing. For these mercenaries who used to be bloodthirsty, this kind of cross ethnic trade is more suitable for them, because many races prefer these straightforward mercenaries to crafty merchants.
In just a moment, Murphy guessed the recent changes in the southern plains.
In fact, as he conjectured, 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. The number of caravans in the kingdom of Athens from different places increased explosively ♀ Some mercenaries were originally doing the task of escorting. Naturally, they were very clear about these branches. As long as they had the original accumulated funds, they could completely turn into merchants.
It''s just that I used to escort others, but now I escort myself!
"If we continue to develop in this way, the mercenaries in this world will probably develop into an organization similar to the mercenary City, right?" Murphy looked at the men who were eating meat and drinking wine, thinking.
There were at least one or two hundred mercenaries in the United caravan. They were equipped with swords, scars and murderous spirit. They were all veteran fighters.
"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.
The establishment of banks has long been in Murphy''s plan, but there must be a premise, that is, the development of local trade has reached a critical point, and a large number of trade has prompted businessmen to need more concise and comprehensive trading methods. Naturally, there is no need to say more about the benefits of the establishment of the bank. Even according to Murphy''s estimation, if the plan of the bank can really be promoted, it may not even be able to gather a [wealth] clergy!
After a visit to the galactia plane, it was much easier for Murphy to set up a bank.
Murphy can take advantage of the arcane mark as the bank''s security measure. The unique mark can ensure that the bank is far higher than the standard of this era. If necessary, Murphy can also use the name of the kingdom of Athens to establish a national bank together with the temple and the mage Academy, The bank''s exchange point spread to the entire southern plains of the major cities!
With a small amount of gold and silver roll and a large amount of bank deposit, using the resources of the mage academy, he can guarantee the exchange with his unique secret method mark and corresponding secret method certificate.
Although there are still many specific matters to be supervised by using the impartiality of the temple, Murphy believes that it is not difficult to popularize it.
With the development of world trade, it is time to promote gold and silver roll (banknote).
………………
"Step, step!"
Murphy, who is in deep thought, suddenly hears the sound of a galloping horse''s hoof. Then the sound gets louder and louder. Soon a large group of fully armed centaurs appear outside the caravan.
The mercenaries in the chariot suddenly became nervous. With the sound of the sword coming out of the sheath, they formed a formation and guarded carefully.
"Damn it! It''s the grey sideburns Centaur clan Murphy had seen a rough man before, looked at the Centaur army that suddenly appeared outside, yelled, "it''s not our allies! Prepare to fight
"Prepare to fight!"
"Prepare to fight!"
There was a roar from the heads of all the mercenaries around. All the mercenaries took up arms and arrayed themselves in the carriage. They were ready for the battle quickly.
Now Murphy frowned and looked out at the Centaurs.
"Something must have happened when I left!" Murphy watched the fierce army of centaurs. When he was still in Athens, the Centaurs had always maintained a good relationship with human beings. They would never add swords to each other, let alone attack the caravan so blatantly! He said to himself in his heart, "is it true? What''s going on inside the Centaurs? "
