It took a long time for Baron Hatton to react and he looked at Ryan.
"Ryan, you can turn Frozen Earth Territory into this. Your talent surpasses countless nobles."
His voice was sincere, surprised by Ryan's sense of smell. At the same time, he also understood that once Frozen Earth Territory took the lead in this transaction with the Chamber of Commerce, it would represent enviable wealth.
Moreover, with the current importance of Ryan in Zero Crossing Prefecture, it can completely drive Zero Crossing Prefecture's iron weapons to trade with the chamber of commerce, which means that it is very likely that nobles like them can also make profits.
Before completely entering the war, Zero Crossing Prefecture can obtain a large amount of wealth, so there will be no problem with the support of these nobles for Ryan.
The metabolism of noble families is very slow. As living nobles, they will all look up to the will of Ryan in the future.
Baron Hatton left on the same day, but Frozen Earth Territory came again two days later. Next to him, there was a sturdy middle-aged man with eyes like sharp knives.
He is a noble, but he is also like a knight. Looking at this person, Ryan seems to see Baron Enzo.
Born of noble blood, lingering in blood and fire, this is... the original ancient noble.
Nobles became nobles because their ancestors had performed extraordinary feats on the battlefield.
Many people want to follow suit, but many fail.
Ryan originally thought that Baron Hatton was just an ordinary Baron, just like him before, living in his own Baron.
But obviously, as Northwind Province, Mr. Baron, who owns Iron Ore, Haton has also been noticed by his relatives.
"Frank Booth, I have met Baron Ryan."
A standard knightly etiquette, Frank is still a little unbelievable when looking at Ryan. He never thought that Baron Hatton would tell himself that if he could not get the approval of this Baron, he would not get any Iron Ore from Zero Crossing Prefecture.
"On behalf of the Lantern Merchant Guild, I am here to discuss the purchase of iron weapons with you."
"Is it just your family?"
Ryan looked at Baron Hatton with a smile on his face, and this Baron smiled unconsciously.
"Ryan, Lantern Merchant Guild can be considered one of the top ten chambers of commerce under the Imperial Merchant Guild. If they can obtain weapons of sufficient quality, other chambers of commerce will naturally come."
"Okay."
Ryan looked at Frank again.
"Lantern Merchant Guild, how many do you want?"
"Ten thousand pieces of armor and thirty thousand swords."
Frank said in a frightening voice.
The main theme of the world is knights, and for knights, there are three most important things, knight armor, Knight's Greatsword, and mounts.
Every knight will pursue better quality mounts, weapons and armor. Naturally, these three essential items are not cheap.
"Lantern Merchant Guild is willing to give out sixty pieces of Gold Coin for each pair of knight armor. Of course, if you can guarantee that the quality of the armor and Knight's Greatsword is as high as the one you sent."
"For one Knight's Greatsword, we are willing to give you eight Gold Coin."
Brock's craftsmanship is absolutely top-notch, otherwise the Frank in front of him would not be priced at a high price, but Ryan still feels... missing.
"For armor and swords of that quality, you have to get one hundred and twenty Gold Coin and fifteen Gold Coin, otherwise we won't sell them."
Ryan shook his head.
"Mr. Frank, you are a knight, you know the value of those things very well, and even in Frozen Earth Territory, there are not many armors and weapons of this quality."
"I can only use the entire Zero Crossing Prefecture to help you forge the remaining armor and sword. Thirty-five Gold Coin will be used to buy the armor, and two Gold Coin will be used to buy the weapons."
Frank frowned.
"Your asking price is too high."
"You gave me too little."
Ryan shook his head and said:
"In the entire Empire, you can't find another weapon forged with such skills, but they only sell you this little."
Frank blinked, then lowered his head and responded respectfully.
"Follow your wishes, Baron Ryan."
The deal was settled in this way, but Frank required that it must be ready within a month.
That's when the Chamber of Commerce has prepared how to safely enter Northwind Province.
"Don't worry, Mr. Frank."
Ryan is not in a hurry. He messed up a lot of armaments in the previous war. He originally planned to sell them to the Andara Kingdom nobles next to him, but no one has come yet. So it will be the same if he sells them to the Empire internally.
As for the remaining share, Zero Crossing Prefecture still has so many nobles, so they can still make it together.
The key lies in the things forged by Brock. Those are the high-quality weapons that really attract the attention of Frank knights. In the Empire, there is really no second one with the same price/performance ratio.
The most important thing is that, as a knight, Frank knows very well that once a knight holds it in his hands, he can use it with ease. Even if the knight's skills are exquisite, some armor and weapons can be deadly to the knight.
He believes that if conditions permit, the high-quality Knight's Greatsword produced by Frozen Earth Territory will become famous far and wide.
At the invitation of Ryan, this descendant of the earl family stayed in Frozen Earth Territory. Of course, Frank was also curious about the Zero Crossing Prefecture that Mr. Haton said in his mouth and in his heart.
He wanted to see what was going on at Northwind Province, but the nobles at South didn't know anything about it.
As for Ryan, he soon welcomed his second chamber of commerce guest.
"Baron Ryan-sama."
Ryan looked at Irina in front of him, smiling and looking down for a moment.
"Irina, you are still so big... and beautiful."
As Blade Rose Merchant Guild's manager at Northwind Province, Irina looked at Ryan with resentment.
"Sir Baron Ryan, we agreed at the beginning that when you come to Frozen Earth Territory this year, all your transactions will be done with us Blade Rose."
"What to do?"
As a serious nobleman, Ryan certainly does not believe in any verbal promises, especially when facing businessmen.
"You just made a transaction with the Lantern Merchant Guild today."
Irina mentioned cryptically, which made Ryan laugh.
"I'm just going to tell you how Frank, that Earl's heir, as a knight, is suitable to be the manager of the Chamber of Commerce."
His eyes fell on Irina's round figure.
"You are the real businessman."
"Thank you, Master Baron, for your compliment."
Irina said slightly proudly.
"So... you Blade Rose Merchant Guild also need weapons?"
It's night.
The Viscountess, the female officer of the castle, walked through the wide corridor. As soon as she opened the door, she heard a blood-red sound coming from inside, and then she gritted her teeth and walked in.
"It really needs to be bigger."
In the dark night, Ryan whispered softly.
