"Laurie, this is a wheelbarrow, unique in the entire principality and even the entire continent. With it, even one person can easily carry two hundred kilograms of goods!" Thomas looked at the dazed Laurie with a smile.

"Sir Thomas, I have a presumptuous question. Is this wheelbarrow easy to operate?" In fact, there is no need for Thomas to explain. Laurie already knows the capabilities of the wheelbarrow. After all, four large baskets of salt are placed on it.

However, the only thing he urgently wants to know now is whether the operation of this cart is difficult. After all, the design of a wheel is really unprecedented.

"I can't answer this question because I haven't tried it!" Thomas shook his head slowly, paused, and then changed the topic. "However, Laurie, you can try it yourself, so that you can know whether it is easy to operate."

"Thank you, Lord Thomas!" Hearing this, Laurie was overjoyed and came directly to the wheelbarrow.

"Drink!" Then, Laurie shouted lowly and slowly lifted the handle of the wheelbarrow.

However, after lifting the wheelbarrow, he was surprised to find that the only thing that required a lot of strength was the moment he lifted the cart. With the weight of the two baskets of salt on the front of the cart, he didn't even need to expend much effort at this time, as long as he maintained the balance of the wheelbarrow.

Laurie's eyes couldn't help but light up when he felt how labor-saving this small cart was.

"Laurie, maybe you can try to take a few steps forward!" At this time, the voice of Thomas came again.

After Laurie heard this, he was about to try this. Without hesitation, he carefully started pushing the car forward.

Although it was still a little uncomfortable due to the design of the wheelbarrow, Laurie finally confirmed that as long as the left and right balance of the wheelbarrow can be mastered, it really does not take much effort to carry the two hundred kilograms of goods.

"Sir Thomas, are you planning to sell this wheelbarrow? I don't know how much it costs!" After experiencing it for nearly two minutes, the performance of the wheelbarrow was already clear to him, and Laurie made up his mind to buy one or two of these magical carts no matter what.

Not to mention carrying goods back from Storm Territory, it is also very useful even if you go to rural villages to sell goods in Black Rock Territory.

"Laurie, this wheelbarrow costs five silver coins each!" Thomas said with a smile.

"Thomas Butler, is it so cheap?" Laurie's eyes widened. He originally thought that such a small car that could carry more than two hundred kilograms of goods would cost more than ten silver coins.

After all, a carriage plus horses costs several gold coins, but the cargo loaded in a carriage is only eight or nine hundred kilograms at most.

In such a comparison, this wheelbarrow is really cheap and good-quality.

"Master Nalant said it! He made this wheelbarrow not to make money from you, but to facilitate your transportation of goods." Thomas smiled slightly and told the reason.

Of course, this statement is just for Thomas to beautify his family.

Nalant is actually priced at five silver coins each because the cost of this wheelbarrow is not high.

As long as the carpenters are skilled in making, two people can make one in three days, and their wages are thirty Copper Coin per day.

As for the wood materials for the trolley, Storm Territory has everything you need, so you don't have to worry about money at all.

Therefore, the real cost of this small cart is almost two silver coins per unit, and if it is sold for five silver coins, Nalant still has a profit of three silver coins.

Of course, this is just a cost factor.

Another consideration is that the technical content of the one-wheeled wooden cart is not high. Now that there are finished products, Nalant believes that carpenters in other areas will soon start to imitate them.

Therefore, unless he is determined to rip off Laurie and others before the imitation car comes out, he won't be able to make much money by setting a high price.

For one or two gold coins, Nalant felt that it was not worthwhile to ruin the reputation of himself and Storm Territory. He also wanted to rely on these civilian caravans to bring traffic to Storm Territory.

"Thomas Butler, I want to buy ten trolleys, I don't know if it is possible!" After hearing this, Laurie naturally said nothing more and immediately opened his mouth to buy from Thomas.

"Of course, but there are only two wheelbarrows that have been made temporarily, so Laurie, if you want ten, you can only make a reservation!"

"Can you make a reservation? I'm sure Thomas butler. I don't know how much deposit is required. I'll leave it to you now!" Laurie was not disappointed. He would only have to wait a month at most. Anyway, he would come to Storm Territory to purchase supplies next time.

"One silver coin for a car deposit!"

Next, Thomas directly received eight silver coins from Laurie as a deposit, and the other two existing cars were all sold to Laurie.

"Thomas Butler, we also want to make a reservation, but I don't know if it's possible!"

Just when Thomas and Laurie completed the transaction, the leaders of the other two caravans also came to Thomas.

Originally, they left immediately after trading the goods.

But before, they saw the hot scene of Laurie caravan selling goods. Everyone stayed for a while to observe, thinking that they would bring goods to sell next time.

The appearance of the trolley just now also attracted their attention. After listening to the conversation between Thomas and Laurie, they also started to think about it.

Their journey to Storm Territory is farther than Black Rock Territory, and they need this cart more than Laurie.

"Of course. How many vehicles do you need? Just book and register them directly with me!" Thomas smiled from ear to ear. It seems that he can successfully complete the task assigned by the adults today.

Tulip City, Noble Academy.

This Noble Academy was opened by the Tulip Family and is located in the aristocratic district of East City. Although it is a college, it is actually more like a noble manor with a beautiful environment.

Those who can study here are all the heirs of nobles. This is where Tulip Family aims to cultivate outstanding talents for the descendants of its vassals.

"Well, it smells so good! It's actually Dragon Brand Jasmine perfume! This Taffy is really rich. I heard that someone has already offered two gold coins to buy a bottle of Dragon Brand Perfume. This is really crazy, considering that its original price was only one gold coin!"

"However, it smells really good. Naxia, do you think that if we also spray this perfume, would it be able to make those boys in the college fascinated!"

In a garden of the college, two girls were sitting on a stone bench reading books. At this moment, a gust of fragrant wind drifted by, and one of the girls immediately showed an envious look.

"Betty, what Dragon Brand Jasmine perfume?" Naxia was concentrating on reading the book and was not disturbed by the fragrance. At this time, he heard his companion's words and raised his head in confusion.

"Oh my God, Naxia, I have some doubts about whether you are a girl. You don't even know Dragon Brand Jasmine perfume. You should read less books. You are not a lord, so what's the use of reading these books on how to manage the territory!" Betty showed an unbelievable expression.

"Although I can't be a lord, my two brothers will become lords, so I plan to read more and make notes for them in the future!"

"I'm afraid you're doing it for Nalant, right? Your eldest brother is the heir to the baronet, and has been taught by your father himself, so you don't have to worry about it at all!" Betty rolled his eyes angrily.

Although Naxia is only the second daughter of a baronet, her excellence is one of the best among the Noble Academy. If it were not for lack of money, it would not be a problem to study at the Noble Academy in Royal Capital.

However, Naxia has the only flaw, that is, he always thinks about his brothers, especially the useless Nalant.

Just like a few days ago, Naxia finally got an academy reward of Flame Crystal, and finally gave it to Nalant.

That's Flame Crystal!

Even if you don't want to use Naxia, you can sell it and exchange it for gold coins, and then buy yourself some beautiful dresses.

Betty is sure that Naxia has been wearing this blue dress for at least two years, because Naxia wore this dress on the day he met her in school.

"Forget it, let's not talk about Nalant, lest you get angry again, let me tell you about Dragon Brand Jasmine perfume!" Seeing Naxia showing signs of being angry, Betty immediately changed the subject.
