Chapter 211: Ideas About Trade Routes

The most important thing in this meeting has been discussed, and the next thing is the appointment of some officials.

Kroeber had discussed this matter with Haier before, and now he just needs to read out the list.

After the appointment of officials and other matters were arranged, the servants came in with the cooked food.

Due to the geographical location of Amethyst Island, the food prepared is mostly seafood and seaweed.

Thanks to the seaweed elf Winnie, seaweed appears on everyone's table.

Originally, seaweed was not added to the nobles' recipes, but only provided to civilians to fill their stomachs.

But since Haier placed the seaweed elves Winnie and Annie on the south bank of Amethyst Island, Winnie didn't know what she absorbed, and the seaweed she produced became much more delicious.

Kroeber also confirmed this personally. Compared with the seaweed produced by Annie, who is also a seaweed elf, Winnie's seaweed is particularly outstanding in both taste and texture.

Samuel also took some samples for experiments, and finally came to the conclusion that Winnie was gradually transforming from an ordinary crop elf to a potion elf.

This news is definitely good news for Krober, because the value of potions is much higher than that of ordinary crops.

At present, Amethyst Island has enough export commodities in terms of framework. After the construction of Salt Island is completed and the first batch of sea salt is produced, Krober's caravan should be formed.

The demand for sea salt in Krober's territory itself is not high, because the staple food of these civilians is a pot of porridge stewed with wheat, barley, corn and seaweed.

Seaweed itself has enough salt, so most of the sea salt produced by Salt Island will become export commodities.

For the caravan, Krober has already made plans.

It is the Amethyst Chamber of Commerce that Krober once proposed to Hyer.

He plans to build this Amethyst Chamber of Commerce into a comprehensive industry integrating foreign trade, internal supply and marketing, military industry exchange, and aristocratic welfare collection.

The controller of the Amethyst Chamber of Commerce will naturally be Krober himself. He will never give such a thing that controls the economic lifeline of the territory to outsiders.

Except for old man Foster.

His third sister Christina can also do it, but she does not have the strength to suppress these people.

If you want to manage the Chamber of Commerce, even if Krober is backing her up, you must have the strength of a formal knight, otherwise, with the energy and physical strength of ordinary people, you can't manage such a large Chamber of Commerce.

Rose Castle has been completed, and a large number of laborers are idle. Krober has asked them to build the headquarters and warehouses of the Amethyst Chamber of Commerce. When the construction is completed, the first sea trade of the Amethyst Islands can begin.

Since it is the first trade, Krober intends to play it safe and mainly conduct activities within the Golden Grand Duchy.

The main trade targets are the nobles in the central and eastern parts of the Golden Grand Duchy, namely, the Sun Flame City, the Frost Fang City, the Flower Crown City, the Moonlight City and other places.

These places are extremely short of salt, and Krober's sea salt is definitely a relief for them.

After thinking about the trade route in his mind, Krober set his sights on Grandpa Foster.

At present, Grandpa Foster's strength is a great knight, and for him who has practiced the low-level Dou Qi secret book, the great knight is already the upper limit.

Although Krober raided the homes of two nobles, the Dou Qi they mainly practiced was not wind attribute, even if there were some low-level Dou Qi secret books with wind attribute, it would not be of any help to Foster.

So Krober had to find a way to get a wind attribute intermediate Dou Qi secret book.

After becoming a great knight, there is a lifespan of 500 years, so the old man still has enough time to practice.

And Krober now has Deep Purple to help him, and he doesn't need any practice resources.

The practice resources snatched from the Crab Claw Family and the Blue Flame Grass Family will be provided in large quantities for the old man to practice.

The formal knight and great knight stages are just a simple accumulation of Dou Qi, as long as there are enough resources, you can build up.

So the Earth Knight shouldn't be too difficult for the old man.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Krober stood up, picked up a glass of red wine, looked around, and showed a satisfied smile.

His eyes swept over everyone present, as if he wanted to take in their expressions.

Then, he raised the glass and shook it gently, letting the wine swirl in the glass, forming a beautiful red vortex.

His voice was low and magnetic, with a unique charm and confidence that made people involuntarily attracted.

He said:

"Everyone, let's raise our glasses together, let's wish that the rule of the Golden Duchy will always be as solid as a rock!"

After that, he raised his glass and gestured to everyone, then raised his head and drank it all.

Everyone stood up, raised the wine glasses in their hands, and imitated Krober's actions and drank it all.

Klober put the wine glass on the table and said:

"Okay everyone, the meal time is over, please do as you please in the following time."

Under normal circumstances, such a grand banquet usually lasts for a whole night, and after the meal, there is a dance.

The role of the dance is mainly to provide a platform for the younger generation in the territory to get to know each other, while the older nobles will gather in groups to talk about current affairs and politics.

It's just that Krober's grassroots team is still new, so naturally it doesn't pay much attention to it. Everyone just chats about the political situation and the like.

And Krober has no interest in this kind of thing. He has some things to talk to his sister about.

These officials and nobles also came with their female relatives, but according to tradition, the place where ladies hold banquets is usually separate from the male nobles, and the location is usually in the back garden of the castle.

This is exactly in line with the situation in this world. The male nobles are responsible for the family's external affairs, while the noble wives coordinate all arrangements for the castle.

"Sir, who are you looking for? I will help you convey it."

According to ancient tradition, when noble women hold banquets, especially when there are unmarried noble ladies, male nobles are not allowed to enter easily.

Although the nobles have a lot of fun in their private lives, they still do a good job in these superficial things.

"Call me Christina Amethyst Rose, and tell her brother to look for her."

The servant bowed in agreement, then turned around to find Miss Christina.

At this time, Christina was having a stiff conversation with a group of gorgeously dressed ladies in the back garden.
