Chapter 80 - announced
After Locke taught Hal and Lawrence how to process coal, he left them alone. Let them negotiate on their own, anyway, coal will be launched soon. In Locke’s mind, it is better to give those businessmen a thorough understanding in advance. Let’s measure this thing first, so that they don’t know anything when they get it, and mobilize their curiosity. If coal is introduced again, there may be some unexpected results.
When he thought of it, he did it. Locke rushed to the office immediately. The little maid had already prepared everything for Locke in the office and was waiting for Locke to work. During this time, Locke was in the office, so the little maid was used to it. Come here early every day.
Locke walked into the office and said to Vina, “Vina, go and post a notice for me.” After that, he wrote on the desk for a while, read it carefully after writing, and handed it to Vina. Nadao: “Take it and post this on the notice board.”
Vera took the notice and looked at it. There was something called coal on it that could actually replace wood. A little surprised: “Sir, can you tell me what this coal is? Can it replace wood? Can this thing be burned?”
Seeing the little maid asking this question, Locke explained the use and advantages of coal, otherwise it would be a bit overwhelming to post a notice later if they didn’t know how to answer it.
On the central square of Oroz City, there are still some people here at this time. Buying and selling is prohibited here, but it does not prevent some people from gathering here to chat and brag. Anyway, some people who are on vacation or who do not have a job like to stay in the central square. On the one hand, there are many people here to chat or something. On the one hand, here is the first place to know what news is coming out of the City Lord’s Mansion. As for why? Because if there is any news from the City Lord’s Mansion, they can see if there are any business opportunities. After all, not everyone in Oroz has a job. Some do not have a stable job, and only help temporary workers to earn some living expenses.
Everyone was bragging and farting, and when they saw the city lord’s maid walking out, holding a notice-like thing in her hand, they immediately became energized. They all gathered around, and when Weina posted the notice, they asked, “Wina maid, what did it say? Are there any new regulations for the Lord of the City? Or are we going to recruit people again?”
As a person who has been at the bottom, Wei Na naturally knows what they mean, and doesn’t care about them, she just said with a smile: “Sir City Lord has not issued any new rules for recruiting people, let me come this time. Posting this notice is to tell you about the new things that have appeared in Oroz City in advance.”
Seeing that something new came out, the businessmen’s spies also hurriedly surrounded them. They were sent here to wait for the city lord to come out with something new or to notify the boss behind him as soon as possible.
Hearing that there was something new made by the city lord, everyone was very curious and asked: “Miss Weina, what is it, tell us quickly.”
“Don’t worry, everyone, I’ll tell you now, the thing that the Lord of the city is going to take out this time is a kind of wood-like thing that we have developed by Oroz. It can be used instead of wood to burn, but it is also better than wood. It burns for a long time and emits more heat than wood. It is a rare good thing in our Wiglott wilderness. As we all know, we use it for heating or cooking at night in the Wiglott wilderness. Wood, we don’t produce wood here, we use all the wood that we sell outside into the Wegrit Wilderness, so the cost is much higher. The Lord of the City took this thing out this time, which is the city of Oroz for this situation. It was researched. Now I will tell you about the usefulness of this thing.”
Wei Na looked at the crowd below waiting for her to continue speaking, and there was no nonsense. He said directly: “This thing, the Lord of the City, calls it coal. After being ignited with fire, it can continue to burn, which is several times or even dozens of times longer than that of wood. And the heat emitted is also much larger than that of wood. The most important thing is that this kind of thing called coal is small in size and easy to carry. Coal of the same weight is only a little more expensive than wood, but the burning time and heat are much more than wood. Think about it, if we sleep outdoors in the wild Usually, you need to carry a lot of wood to spend safely in the cold night. If you have coal, you can carry a small amount, and you can spend it safely. It greatly saves the space for carrying wood, and you can bring more goods. Earn more coins every time.”
When everyone heard this, they finally had a reaction.
“Yeah, every time we go to other tribes to do business, it’s impossible to get there in a day, we have to sleep in the wild, and we have to bring a lot of wood every time. If this thing called coal can really carry a small amount and a large amount The wood is the same, so can’t we make more money every time we go out and do business?”
“Yes, yes. If this thing is really the same as what Miss Weena said, then we can carry more goods in the future. We can also earn more gold coins each time.”
The following people also talked about it. Some impatient people immediately asked: “Miss Weena, when will this thing called coal be available in Orz? What is the specific price? We should go back and prepare.”
Vera was a little embarrassed. Because Locke never told her how long it would take for the coal to be bought and sold in Oroz City~www.mtlnovel.com~ Now she is asked how to answer such a question.
She took a closer look at the notice that Locke gave her. Wei Na said: “The specific time is still under consideration, but don’t worry, since the city owner asked me to come out and tell you, it won’t be too long. I believe that you will receive news of coal trading soon. I said. The specific price adults only told me that it is definitely more cost-effective than buying wood.”
“Okay, we won’t embarrass Miss Weina. Since the Lord of the City does not have it, and now the notice is posted, it will definitely not be too long. We can just wait with peace of mind.” said an uncle.
The bull-headed uncle said loudly: “It’s not the time to ask when this coal will appear. The people here are all people who don’t have stable jobs. Usually, they work temporary jobs for the city lord to earn some living expenses. Now the Lord of the City has introduced this kind of coal. Since the Lord of the City has said that it is definitely more cost-effective than wood, can you organize a few people with me to open a shop or set up a caravan, and we specialize in this coal business?”
When everyone heard it, they felt that there was a show. They all didn’t have a stable job. Now that this kind of opportunity comes up, we must seize it. Immediately, a few people stood up.
The bull-headed uncle was overjoyed. Immediately drag these people to the Ministry of Commerce.
They are here to sign a contract, so that they will not be divided equally or other people with ulterior motives will play tricks in the future. As long as the contract of Oroz City is signed, whoever dares not to keep it, waiting for him is definitely the invitation of the Oroz Guards. Knowing the strength of Oroz City, no one dares to have the slightest thought.
Wei Na stood there to witness the birth of a caravan, and smiled. See no one asks any more questions. Turned around and returned to the office, continuing to guard Locke.
