Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 214: Qikan’s Trading Caravans

Kant rubbed his glabella at the top of the tower and regained his consciousness.

However, he did not dare to continue looking down.

Ordinary people did not have acrophobia, but this height was enough to make his legs go weak.

However, Kant’s mind communicated with the system to ease the fear of heights in his heart. He directly ordered in a quiet voice, “System, use the item pack and the hero pack.”

[ ding... use is over ]

The system immediately responded.

At the same time, in Kant’s mind, three item cards and two hero cards instantly turned into golden light and shattered.

And behind the dune not far from Drondheim Castle, three groups of strangers appeared out of thin air. This made the Vaegir marksman, who had been watching their surroundings vigilantly, look solemn. They immediately wanted to pass on the news.

This high-level watchtower was equipped with a sound transmission device. It was a pipe made of iron sheet and wood. It was 40 meters long and directly penetrated the top tower and the direction of the council hall at the bottom. If there was any news, they could directly tell it to the pipe loudly. As the sound reverberated, it was clearly transmitted to the bottom.

“No need. They are all on our side.”Kant opened his mouth to stop them.

Of course, he knew that they were the residents he had recruited.

500 urban migrants and 500 rural refugees were all women.

“Maybe we can start normal reproduction and communication.”

Kant pondered slightly.

In the past, the system data indicated that his estate lacked women.

But because he did not need too many women in the war, Kant did not take the initiative to ask for more women.

Now that the system had sent 1,000 women, they could marry the men. As long as they could get married and have children, the Kingdom of Swadia would be able to have children.

These were real men and women. Naturally, they could have children.

Watchtower did not send any news.

However, there were also Vaegir marksmen stationed on the Arrow Tower at the city gate. Hence, they quickly discovered these unfamiliar teams.

One team of desert bandits rode out on their horses.

However, among the women, two figures also rode out to negotiate with the desert bandits.

Although it wasn’t clear.

Kant knew that it should be Rolf and Bandake.

These were the two heroic NPCs he had drawn.

Although Bandake was a romantic, his character was extremely good. He could match up with Fartis, Manide, and James.

Especially when it came to pity for the commoners, he had almost the same topic as Fatis.

After all, even if Bandake, the captain of the crossbowmen, obtained a noble title and a fief, he would not allow others to call him lord. Instead, he would call himself the protector of the commoners. It was his responsibility to protect the commoners. He was the protector of the innocent commoners.

However, Kant was not sure about Rolf.

From his title, the scoundrel noble could see just how despicable this hero NPC was.

In fact, that was indeed the case.

Robbing trade caravan, robbing civilians, and slaughtering captives were all things that Rolf liked to do. There was also extortion, exploitation, and theft. This self-proclaimed noble was a first-rate expert.

Of course, this included his outstanding combat strength.

In the original version of riding and hacking, Fatis was an existence that absolutely did not get along with Rolf.

Manide, James, and Bandake also hated this kind of companion that did not have a bottom line.

If it was according to the game’s settings, the four of them would definitely work together to push Rolf out of the team. However, in the real world, Kant felt that he might be able to try other methods to make them get along well.

Especially the desert bandits who had yet to be led, they might be able to fit in well with Rolf.

Their essence was similar.

In fact, Rolf, a noble, had really been a bandit or a mountain bandit.

He definitely had no objections to leading this group of desert bandits.

As for Bandake, Kant planned to send him to the village of Aaron. As an infantry crossbowman, he was definitely suitable to lead Rhodoks’s troops. After all, the troops of the Kingdom of Swadia were led by Fatis.

Currently, the forces of Drondheim’s castle were not many.

Hence, it was convenient to arrange the personnel.

Rolf led the Desert Bandits to the posthouse. He was in charge of preventing spies from scouting and patrolling the Nahrin desert near the mountain pass of the Senwaya Range. He wanted to ensure that there were no enemies with strange intentions. He secretly organized a team to go deep into the oasis lookout.

“However, we need to seriously consider these buildings.”

Kant frowned slightly.

There were also five types of construction pack this time.

And there were quite a number of them.

For example, there were five chicken farms, five bee farms, five small-scale fish farms, and five tanning workshops.

As for the flax fields, it was a total of 50 acres!

This amount was quite astonishing.

If the 50 acres of flax fields were to harvest mature raw flax silk, there would be an estimated 500 bales.

This material was used to make linen.

There was now a linen workshop in Kant’s “Drondheim” castle. As long as these raw flax silk were harvested, the weaver would be able to make the flax into smooth and soft linen!

After thinking for a moment.

Kant also had an idea. The handicraft industry in “Drondheim” castle still needed to develop, and close-range raw materials were definitely necessary. Therefore, the thought communication system said, “Then build these flax fields and connect them to the previous 10 acres!”

The card shattered, and the data flow instantly gushed out.

Next to the original 10 mu of flax fields on the west side of the lake, a new 50 acre of flax fields appeared.

The crisp flax seedlings had already grown, and it would only take a few months for them to sprout and grow. When it was time to harvest raw flax silk, the entire Drondheim Castle would be able to obtain a large amount of flax cloth.

This was a commodity that could be directly traded with the continent of Caradia.

After all, this was an item produced by the system.

As for the five small fishing grounds, Kant chose to build them in the oasis lookout. There weren’t many fish in this narrow and long lake. Even if there were, they would only be the size of a pinky finger. They couldn’t be considered as economic fish species.

This was something Kant had carefully considered.

The lake was the embodiment of the rules of the system. There were also many aquatic plants in the lake, which could provide fish with shelter from the scorching sun.

At the same time, the bottom of the lake was connected to the spring water and underground water, so the temperature would not be too high.

With the economic fish species in the small fishing grounds, the castle of Drondheim would be able to obtain fresh fish, as well as produce smoked fish and other storable food.

It could directly bring help to the oasis lookout.

Although “Aaron” could also place small fishing grounds, it was a new river after all, and it was not suitable to be a fishing ground.

Perhaps it could only be done after Kant had re-transformed it.

Although “Aaron” could not place small fishing grounds, Kant had other plans.

For example, five chicken farms that could be raised, and five beekeeping farms that needed a lot of flowers were the buildings that he wanted to place in “Aaron.”

“Switch to Aaron’s village.”

Kant’s thought communication system immediately entered God mode once again.

However, this time, it was not the oasis lookout in the Nahrin Desert.

It was the “Aaron” village in the Senwaya Range!

Looking at the Rhodoks people who were still busy at the bottom, as well as the Ravenston Rangers who were stationed inside the city wall, Kant’s thoughts moved slightly. Five chicken farms and five bee farms instantly appeared at the east side of the city wall.

Outside the city wall was a cliff, which could prevent wild beasts or magical creatures from climbing.

The thousands of acres of flat land on the entire mountain was enough for the grouse in the chicken farm to play.

One had to know that the chicken farm was not the same as the chicken house before.

There were 100 grouse in each of these buildings, and as the eggs were laid and hatched every day, the number of these grouse would increase exponentially. The number of eggs and feathers that could be provided every week was extremely high.

Eggs can be used as food, and they can also be used to hatch chicks.

Feathers are necessary for making arrows.

If it were not for the fact that the oasis lookout was not suitable for large numbers of grouse, and that this was the main base on the surface, Kant really intended to build these five chicken farms outside the castle of Drondheim.

The same was true for the reason that the apiary was built in Aaron.

However, honey was easy to store and carry.

Kant could transport the honey to the oasis lookout through the Camel Caravan.

Moreover, this sweet food was also a raw material and a commodity. If it was simply sold as honey or made into candied fruit with dates, it would be a good thing. The price in the continent of Caradia was also not cheap.

Just like linen, it could be exchanged for denar.

“That’s it.”

Kant withdrew from God’s view.

He returned to the top floor of the high-level watchtower. Looking at the immigrants and refugees who had entered the castle one after another at the bottom, Kant walked down. Next, it was time for him to arrange a mission.

At the same time, he planned to see what was going on with the trade caravan.

After all, there were these people in the item pack.

Among the women, 10 carriages and more than 20 people followed them into the castle.

“System, open the details of the trade caravan.”

Kant gave the order.

The system soon popped up an introduction on his retina.

[ trade caravan: This is a caravan consisting of a caravan leader, 4 caravan guards, 12 sentries, 20 ponies and 10 carriages. It can trade with the outside world. Remark: before starting trade, you need to choose a city randomly. This city may be a power of any kingdom. Please consider carefully. ]

Kant raised his eyebrows slightly.

Kant scanned the trade caravan.

In his mind, he instantly thought of Jocelyn from Ravendin. If he guessed correctly, this trade caravan was definitely Kant’s own caravan. As long as he chose a city randomly, he could conduct trade with that city in the world of riding and hacking!

At the same time, Kant scanned the list of buildings he had.

He remembered that there was another building at the castle level that had a similar effect. It was also a trade caravan!

[ trade caravan base: civilian buildings. This building could organize a trade caravan to go to the continent of Caradia for trade. It would return at the beginning of every month to settle the income and expenses of this trade. At the same time, the trade caravan could also be ordered to purchase the necessary materials, or be designated to sell certain materials to a certain city. ]

“This seems to be interesting.”

Kant looked at the system’s introduction on the dialog box.

He was deep in thought.

The appearance of these two trade caravans might be able to rely on the current income of the denar and completely rely on the plight of the captive trade. If they formed a good trade network and had better products, according to Kant’s experience in the game, each trade caravan earning tens of thousands of denar in a month existed!
