bookandnovel Chapter 227 Generous Li Fan
Chapter 227 Generous Li Fan
The iron blocks in the dwarf gathering place were originally used for trading with the human race.
Therefore, when Li Fan said that he would trade salt for tens of millions of catties of iron, Luke was naturally willing.
In this way, not only can he complete the transaction, but he can also complete the transaction incidentally, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.
As for whether Li Fan has salt, Luke is not worried.
It is well known that the human race has a dead sea, although this dead sea is not enough for the large number of human races.
However, most nobles don't care about the life and death of civilians, so for the nobles, their salt is abundant and can be used for trading.
Since the gathering place of the human race, Li Fan, was established to help the nobles do business, isn't it normal to have salt?
What Luke worries about is how much salt Li Fan can finally take out.
After all, this time, if he wanted to trade tens of millions of jins of iron at one time, he should at least give him 100,000 jins of salt. No, for such high-quality salt, 80,000 jins would be enough.
Luke was a little embarrassed, because he felt that his offer was a bit high.
However, Li Fan almost didn't laugh out loud when he heard Luke's offer.
With a big wave of his hand on the spot, Li Fan agreed to Luke's offer, and was even willing to give Luke an extra 5,000 catties of salt.
It's not that Li Fan is so generous, it's just because he really doesn't lack salt.
You know, the nearest salt mine in the valley, Li Fan can extract at least tens of thousands of tons of table salt.
And what is Luke's offer?
Eighty thousand catties, isn't it only 40 tons of salt?
40 tons is not even a fraction of the salt mine.
Besides, even if this salt mine is exhausted, are there no other salt mines in the evil forest?
There is nothing in the evil forest, will there be any outside the evil forest?
As long as Li Fan sticks to the method of extracting table salt from the salt mine, no one will rob him of the salt mine in the entire Magical Continent.
He, Li Fan, may be short of everything, but salt is impossible.
Since the salt is so cheap, there is no need for Li Fan to be stingy. It is even more important for him to sell favors to Luke.
However, Li Fan's behavior, in Luke's eyes, is that Li Fan agreed to his offer in order to let him go back to deal with business, and even gave him an extra 5,000 catties of salt for this reason.
At this moment, Luke was moved.
"Brother, you will be my Luke's brother from now on."
Luke excitedly held Li Fan's hands.
That posture made Li Fan think that this Luke wanted to worship him on the spot... no, it was a trick.
...
The deal of exchanging salt for iron bars was concluded.
Li Fan made an appointment with Luke, and Li Fan will prepare all the salt within a month.
The reason is within one month because there is not so much salt stored in the territory.
Li Fan needs to spend time to extract the salt from the salt mine, and in order not to be noticed, he also needs to use the space ring to secretly dig out the salt mine and then extract it.
Luke thought that Li Fan was going to transport salt from the human empire, so he agreed to the one-month period.
After that, Luke didn't leave. His purpose this time was not only the iron block, but also two other purposes by the way.
One of them is Dozina.
Luke said at this time: "Li Fan, although in terms of our friendship, I shouldn't embarrass you as a big brother, but Dozina is a senior blacksmith after all, and even our king gave special orders for her, so I must take her back to the Dwarven Empire."
"Shut up..." Li Fan spit out two words from his mouth unceremoniously.
Luke stared, good boy, we are just getting acquainted, so you don't want to give me any face, right?
Luke was so angry that he was about to go crazy on the spot.
But Li Fan said at this time: "1000 catties of salt."
"What... what?" Luke was a little dazed.
Li Fan said impatiently: "I will give you 1,000 catties of salt, and I will solve Duozina's problem."
"Hehe," Luke sneered after hearing this, and then said disdainfully: "Li Fan, you don't think that a senior blacksmith is only worth 1,000 catties of salt..."
"5000..."
Before Luke could utter the word "bar", Li Fan had already made an offer again.
"5...5000 catties, are you not crazy?" Luke asked in disbelief.
"6000 catties," Li Fan didn't answer, just returned another number.
"Ok, enough, enough, I will take care of this matter." Luke was a little overwhelmed.
Opening his mouth is 6,000 catties of salt. What kind of aristocrat is standing behind this Li Fan to have such ample salt?
Luke felt like he had to look up to Li Fan.
But what Luke didn't say was that let alone 6,000 catties of salt, even 60,000 catties of salt is not as valuable as a senior blacksmith.
But one thing is that he really likes Li Fan, after all, Li Fan is really too generous.
Secondly, it was because Luke knew that Dozina herself seemed to want to stay in this territory more than returning to the Dwarf Empire.
Luke knew this from the expression on Dozina's face at this time.
Not far away, Dozina walked up to Li Fan with a smile on his face, then reached out and punched Li Fan on the shoulder, and said, "Thank you, I'll treat you to a drink later!"
While talking, this woman who had always been handsome ran away shyly at this moment.
Li Fan was taken aback and scratched his head.
"Uh, I'm buying you to work for me. Why are you so happy? Does work make you happy?"
...
In fact, Luke is so easy to talk about Dozina, not only because of the two reasons mentioned before, but the most important thing is because he doesn't like the current king of the dwarf country.
This involves some more troublesome things.
Therefore, except for such a big matter as the iron block, Luke didn't want to bother to help the king bring Dozina back.
And when he returns to the Dwarf Empire, he just needs to say that Dozina is not in Li Fan's territory, or put the blame on Chater and his son.
Anyway, with the current state of Chater and his son, it seems that they can't survive anymore.
And the reputation of the father and son is really bad, even if they die, no one will care, and just find someone to replace them at that time.
...
Besides Dozina, Luke has one last thing at this time.
That is to return the 131 dwarves who were captured by Li Fan.
To Luke's request, Li Fan's answer was yes.
"of course can……"
Li Fan was too straightforward, even the straightforward Luke was a little skeptical.
Sure enough, Li Fan made another request at this time, he said: "As long as they want to leave, I can let them leave at any time, but if they don't want to leave my territory, you can't force it!"
"Don't want to leave? How is it possible?" Luke felt that he had heard a big joke. How could someone be willing to stay in someone else's territory as a prisoner?
I'm afraid Li Fan is not entertaining him.
Luke didn't believe such absurd things, and agreed to Li Fan's request on the spot.
Li Fan smiled mysteriously, and then asked Gu Li to bring the 131 dwarf captives over.
Luke looked at these dwarves, and was surprised to find that not only were these dwarves not subjected to any abuse, but they were all in great spirits, as if they had been extremely... Moisturized during this time?
