Chapter 341 Timber Merchant
Doppler is an ordinary timber merchant with great business vision. After the alliance and the demons started the war, he immediately keenly noticed that a large amount of timber must be used for the reconstruction of the city after the war.So regardless of the risk, he immediately brought his own caravan and drove thousands of miles from Eagle City to Antelope City, for the large forest in the south of Antelope City and the high-quality wood.

He had a hunch that if the business was completed this time, he would make a fortune, and even become the top businessman in the Lorenzo Empire!
Of course, there are also great risks in this, and no one knows when the battle will end.He was also very cautious before. Even though he had such a plan in his mind, he never put it into action.He has been keeping an eye on the movement on the front line, until he heard that the alliance started to push southward and even regained the city of Shataz. Then he was overjoyed and took action immediately.

Today, he finally brought his caravan to Eagle City.Looking at this city, he was very proud and felt that this would be the place where his dream would take off.

However, on the first day, the first day he came to Antelope City, he was summoned by the city lord here!
He was suddenly startled, wondering if he had done something illegal.But after thinking about it, it's nothing!

Could it be that timber is not allowed to be mined here, and the identity of the timber merchant has long been known by the other party?

Or is the other party going to ask for a bribe and at the same time beat himself up?
He didn't know, this sudden order left him in shock.But he couldn't resist, so he could only make preparations that he thought were perfect, and then came to the City Lord's Mansion.

Then, he was dumbfounded.

"Oh, Mr. Doppler is here, but the old man has been waiting for a while!"

Looking at Hans, who was laughing heartily and joking with him very familiarly, Doppler was a little dazed.

What's going on?I sent him money?
Or which of my relatives and ancestors saved his life?

"Come on, Mr. Doppler, this way please."

Hans took him all the way to the backyard.Here, a table of good food and wine has been prepared, and there are a group of beautifully dressed maids beside them, ready to serve.

Doppler was even more confused.

Did I save his life?
"Is there something wrong with this... City Lord?" He asked tentatively with an uncertain tone.

"of course."

Hans sighed and sat on the main seat.The maid next to him poured him a glass of wine, and he drank it down. Then his face was full of sadness: "Sir, you should know about the outbreak of demons in the south and the war now, right?"

"Of course I know." Doppler nodded, wondering if there are still people in this world who don't know about it?
"It's because of these demons, it's because of these guys!" Hans looked heartbroken, and kept tapping his fingers on the table, "It's these guys who attracted all the adventurers who should have come to Antelope City to the south!"

"I'm sure you've heard that the Antelope City is a city full of opportunities and where adventurers take off. But if there are no adventurers in this city, what kind of city is it?"

Doppler understood, and his eyes immediately showed some sympathy.

It seems that the city lord is not doing very well recently.

"So, coming, sir, has solved my urgent need."

Speaking of this, Hans suddenly became happy again: "Mister is a timber merchant, right?"

"Yes." Doppler knew that the other party had no extra intentions for him, so he nodded and his tone became normal.

"Logging naturally requires workers." Hans continued, "In order to pursue efficiency, the more workers, the better..."

"I wonder if Mr. Doppler has enough workers this time?"

"I didn't bring too many, I still plan to recruit some in Antelope City." Doppler replied honestly, "Of course, if the sales are good, I can recruit more..."

"Recruit more, we must recruit more!" Hans suddenly became serious, "I will give you strong support and strong subsidies, and you must recruit more workers!"

"This..." Hans was a little skeptical. It didn't seem to be good for him to do so, right?
If I am asked to recruit more workers, it can also be explained as revitalizing the city's economy.But subsidizing me... Isn't he at a loss?
Is he so selfless?

Doppler didn't believe it. After so many years of experience, he knew very well that these city lords may be sympathetic to the people, but if they were asked to pay for it themselves, they would definitely be unwilling.

Well, there is something else hidden in this.

On the opposite side, seeing Doppler's suspicious expression, Hans suddenly realized that he was a little too hasty.

"To be honest, I have no choice but to do this!" He sighed again, and said, "Because of no income, some residents are already planning to leave here and settle in other cities. If there is no passenger flow, it will take two years." It's over. But if there are no residents, this is a dead city!"

"I don't want this city to be destroyed in my hands. For this, even if I pay some price, what does it matter?"

Doppler suddenly realized that, indeed, the loss of population is indeed unacceptable for a city.

But... No, it's still too enthusiastic.

Still too enthusiastic.

Thinking of this, he put away the skeptical look on his face, flattered each other with Hans, and then promised to expand the scale and recruit more lumberjacks.Hans was very happy, and the host and guest enjoyed themselves.

That night, the drunk Doppler naturally had a fair-skinned and beautiful maid serving him to rest, but he still felt uneasy.So that day, he sent his men to inquire about taverns and other places to see if any major events had happened in the city recently.

His businessman's instincts told him there was definitely something wrong with the city.

And all of this was seen by the secretive Lin Yichen and Sirobal.

"I think you found a pig teammate." Sirobal said, "Even if he doesn't do anything, this businessman will go to log. His actions like this have made this guy suspicious."

"No way, before the cooperation, who knew that he was a pig teammate who couldn't even stop the Jotun troll." Lin Yichen satirized Sirobal, who rubbed his nose as if he didn't hear anything.

Naturally, what he was referring to was a few days ago, when Sirobal shied away and couldn't do it, and the whole process was on the verge of OB.

"Look again, keep an eye on this Doppler at all times, don't let Hans be self-defeating." He warned again, with a faint light in his eyes, "We are going to target those stubborn and unreasonable elves." My fellow, don’t offend everyone in one go!”
