"It smells so good..." He paused for a moment, smelling the aroma coming out of the barrel. Kerr couldn't help but swallowed his saliva. He could swear that he had never smelled such fragrant black bread.

"Want to eat? If you want to eat, you can buy it. Ten pieces of Copper Coin each!" Vivian was not surprised by his performance and took out a fist-sized piece of black bread directly from the barrel.

"Sir... this is too expensive!" Kerr was indeed a little greedy, but when he heard ten Copper Coins coming together, he subconsciously made a sound of surprise!

You must know that ordinary black bread, ten cents can already buy a large piece, at least half a catty, but the bread in the guard's hand is only as big as a fist.

"Don't be too expensive, you can smell its fragrance, right? This is more delicious than white bread, are you sure you don't want to try it?" Vivian tried his best to sell bread for his master. Seeing Daru hesitate, he immediately encouraged him.

Kerr was a little shaken by Vivian's words. The special fragrance just now smelled really good, and since he didn't eat breakfast, he really couldn't help it. Thinking of this, Kerr secretly glanced at Laurie to confirm that he didn't pay attention, so he quickly took out all the ten cents he had on him, "Then... then I'll buy one piece!"

Vivian accepted the money with a smile and handed the brown sugar bread directly to Kerr.

When Nalant in the distance saw this scene, a smile appeared on his lips.

The reason why he loaded the carriage with brown sugar bread was to sell it to this group of people.

Nalant believes that no one in this world can resist the temptation of brown sugar. Once you taste brown sugar bread once, you will definitely want to taste it a second time.

As for why Nalant doesn't sell the brown sugar directly, instead it takes so much trouble to make it into Brown Sugar Black Bread.

In fact, simply selling brown sugar is too expensive.

Once the price is high, only the nobles can afford it.

But the nobles just underestimated Land of Misfortune's reputation, so this was a dead end.

Therefore, Nalant is fortunate to have made brown sugar into Brown Sugar Black Bread. While making money, it also promoted brown sugar first.

Brown bread can be stored for a very long time and can be sold over long distances like other commodities.

As long as brown sugar bread is popularized, caravans will have another reason to come to Storm Territory.

"Ah!" Just when Nalant's thoughts were wandering, an exclamation came from not far away.

The exclamation was naturally made by Kerr. At this time, he had just taken a bite of Brown Sugar Black Bread, and then he had the same reaction as the guard Kari·Ox Tail.

"Kerr, what are you doing!" Laurie and Thomas were concentrating on counting the goods, but they were startled by Kerr's exclamation.

"I... I... Uncle Laurie, I didn't mean it... this brown sugar bread is so delicious..." Kerr held Brown Sugar Black Bread in his hands and lowered his head in shame and anger.

"Brown Sugar Black Bread?" Laurie wondered. He ate black bread every day. How could Kerr be so delicious that he screamed in surprise?

"Laurie, I almost forgot to introduce it to you. Our Storm Territory has a Brown Sugar Black Bread that is unique in the entire principality. It is extremely delicious and can be said to be even more delicious than white bread. I wonder if you are interested in buying some to sell." Thomas looked at Kerr's stunned expression and laughed inwardly.

"The whole principality is unique? Is it more delicious than white bread?" Laurie didn't know how to respond to Thomas. Can black bread taste better than white bread? He didn't believe it. He was also a commoner who had tasted white bread.

In addition, is there any unique statement? Even if the king of the principality comes, black bread will still be black bread...

"This is your nephew, you can ask him how it tastes!" Thomas knew what Bernie was thinking and immediately added.

Originally, he was planning to send one or two pieces of Brown Sugar Black Bread for free to Laurie to taste before discussing, but now that the young man has tasted it, it seems that he can save these two pieces of Brown Sugar Black Bread.

"Kerr, show me your Brown Sugar Black Bread!" Thomas is the castle steward after all. Although Laurie doesn't believe there is anything special about this black bread, the necessary respect is still needed. At least he must taste it first, and then pretend to shirk the blame.

"Oh!" Kerr heard his uncle's words and did not dare to refute. He reluctantly handed over the black bread that he had already taken a bite out of.

Laurie took the black bread, smiled at Thomas, and then put the black bread into his mouth.

"Uh..." But the next moment, Laurie, who was still pretending at first, was stunned, "This... what does this taste like? There is such delicious black bread in the world!"

Laurie's reaction was completely within Thomas's expectation. Looking at Laurie, whose performance was not much better than Kerr, Thomas said with a faint smile, "How about, our Storm Territory's Brown Sugar Black Bread is better than white bread!"

"Thomas Butler, I'm very sorry, I was a little rude!" At this moment, Laurie really understood that not a single word of Thomas's previous words was a lie, even The delicious taste of Brown Sugar Black Bread is even better than what the steward said, "Thomas Butler, I don't know how many pieces of Copper Coin are needed for this Brown Sugar Black Bread!"

As a veteran of a grocery store, Laurie prides himself on having some knowledge. If he takes such a Brown Sugar Black Bread back, he will definitely make a lot of money.

However, the only variable at present is the price. If the price is too high, I am afraid not many people can afford it.

"Uncle Laurie, this Brown Sugar Black Bread wants ten Copper Coins each!" Kerr on the side heard this and spoke first.

"Ten Copper Coin?"

Sure enough, such delicious brown bread is quite expensive.

Laurie's eyes are much darker, and the price is at least ten times higher than that of ordinary black bread. In this case, it will be difficult to sell. After all, he also has to make money, and he has to increase the price.

"Ten cents is just the retail price. If you want to buy it, the starting price is one hundred Brown Sugar Black Bread, and each Brown Sugar Black Bread is only seven cents!" Thomas spoke at the right time.

He learned from his elders that the cost of Brown Sugar Black Bread is not high, and one pound of brown sugar can produce at least more than a thousand pieces of fist-sized black bread.

"Thomas Butler, is it true? Only seven cents per dollar?" Instantly, Laurie's eyes showed the light of hope.

"That's right, seven Copper Coins in one piece! When the time comes, you will sell ten Copper Coins in one piece. I believe many people will buy it!"

"Thank you Thomas butler, we want to buy two hundred pieces of Brown Sugar Black Bread!" Laurie did not hesitate. Although most serfs may not be able to afford it, there are many commoners in Black Rock Territory, and they will definitely be happy to buy this Brown Sugar Black Bread, which is sweeter than honey.
