Because Gavin was idle, the young dragon Awinsa could not sit still. In the past period of time, he had learned Gavin's tricks, captured Goss as a soldier, and wandered around the rock land and the mountains. The dog pretended to be a dragon. Both the young dragon and the dog-headed man found satisfaction and had a lot of fun. The consequence of this incident was that Gavin's happiness and troubles were further aggravated. While urging human merchants to increase the amount of grain transported, he planned to start vegetable and fruit trade with the Yaling as soon as possible. Once that line was opened, the grain that needed to be transported on the Eagle Cliff Cave would be greatly reduced. There was only one biggest problem. The valley where the curtain was located was not geographically remote. Not to mention the trade route, there was not even a goat path. If the two wanted to trade in bulk goods, they had to either open up a trade route or go by air. Either way, it was not so easy to achieve. In addition, in the Spring Bud Castle, in the contact with the Yaling Lord Virginia, Gavin was passive everywhere, which stimulated him to some extent. He realized that although he had changed his job to a psychic, his thinking and methods in many places still relied on the warrior's set. Of course, the psychic's methods were weak in the early stage, and the technology inherited from the legendary warrior was more useful. It was also related to Gavin's lack of attention and failure to fully tap the potential of the psychic.
The most typical example is that all the superpowers have not been fully explored and mastered. With the awakening of the dragon blood kobold, Gavin brought a large amount of experience points, and the professional level was raised to level three. It was a good opportunity to dig deeper. The third professional level is a threshold, especially for spellcasters, because they can cast second-level spells and superpowers. At the same time, there is an additional general specialty, Gavin chose the power of will. This ability allows him to further strengthen and control his consciousness, and improving resistance to superpowers is secondary. Gavin mainly focuses on resistance to charm and control.

"It's great, it's really great." After hearing the exact words relayed by Bede, Gavin spun around in excitement, held Bede's big hand tightly and said: "Uncle Bede, you are so awesome, this Khalsa’s words not only represent the Red Crow Mercenary Group, but also the War Mage. With this promise, as long as we don’t do anything too outrageous in the rocky land and threaten the safety of Cormyr, The Purple Dragon Legion will not cause trouble for us." Once Gavin heard Khalsa's identity, everything became clear. There is no such thing as retirement for a former battle mage or Cormyr's battle mage. Once a battle mage, always a battle mage. Especially those who are not among the battle mages, they often have more power, because they are likely to have special missions, such as being the eyeliners of the Kingdom of Asan and the current old dragon of the Kingdom of Cormyr. They like this spy drama very much, Cormyr. All cities, whether overtly or covertly, will have a large number of his informants. Khalasar is probably throwing a pearl at Abel, and many people know it. Bede chuckled and said: "It's not that I'm very capable, but Brother Gavin, your idea impressed Mr. Khalasar, so I copied your analysis. Master Khalasa, who originally didn't care about Black Well, immediately changed his attitude. A 180-degree change has occurred. He also said that if he wanted to meet Brother Gavin, it would be fine whether Brother Gavin went to Abel or he came to Heijing. Although there is an element of politeness in this matter, I think it is necessary for Brother Gavin to get in touch with him personally. I believe that with the abilities of the Gavin brothers, it will not be difficult to win the recognition of this master. If we can take this opportunity to get the official recognition of Cormier, it will be more secure for Qian Zaiyan's actions. " Although Bede didn't say it himself, he was really concerned about himself and Heijing. Counting the time, he didn't have time to go anywhere else, so he ran away between Abel and Heijing. Although there are far more profit factors than emotional factors, this is a success in itself, or in other words, the reliability of the former is much higher than that of the latter. As long as he can ensure his interests in Heijing, his enthusiasm will always remain so strong. Gavin paced back and forth, nodded and said: "This is indeed a very important line. Now that we have connected it, don't break it, but it is still too early to meet. He was able to promise me a cheap deal in Rockland, and he also valued the possibility of creating greater benefits for Cormyr. If I do this, we don't need to go to them, they will come to us on their own initiative.
If I can't do this, even if I get close, it's just a hot face but a cold butt. For now, his promise is enough, at least the Red Crow Mercenary Group will not mess around. But since people have made promises, we should give them some bonuses. Therefore, next, I will ask Uncle Bede's Thousand Heads Trading Company to open up the trade route to Abel and Cormyr and transport some of the iron ore there. For the iron ore transported in this direction, I will Make a profit of five points. " Gavin will hug Cormyr's thigh sooner or later. As long as the old dragon Asan is still there, the Purple Dragon Kingdom will be the big tree in the sky here and cannot be shaken. The plans for the next few years will all revolve around the military operations of the Kingdom of Cormyr. The Baron of Rockland also needs the other party to be canonized. But Gavin is still self-aware, despite the fact that he has nearly 10,000 kobolds. Well, of course, most of them are hidden. The Yingya Cave and the Pit Tribe are not open to those merchants. They only know that there are hidden forces in the Black Well, but they don't have a specific idea of how big they are. They only know from The food delivered is estimated to be very large. Not to mention that Gavin deliberately hides his clumsiness, even if he doesn't, in the eyes of a big shot like Khalasar, it's just a small matter. There is no human village with a population of a thousand that deserves attention. After all, the weakness of kobolds is deeply rooted in people's hearts. Thousands of kobolds leaving the complex terrain of rocky land may not even be able to withstand the charge of a Cormyr Purple Dragon patrol. Cormyr's Purple Dragon Legion is world-famous and intimidates the entire Falling Star Sea region. A regular Cormyr Purple Dragon patrol, consisting of 40-60 level 3-4 cavalry, a 6-7 level commander, at least two priests and a war mage and several war mage apprentices, the commander Usually with a wand or scroll such as the Staff of Paralysis. There are at least ten such purple dragon patrols active in Abel and Tiffanyton. Cormyr's Eastern Army is permanently stationed in Abel City, with a strength of no less than 2,000. This does not include Abel's own garrison and militia system. In terms of land area, Cormyr is obviously larger than Tethyr, but in terms of governance, the two are not on the same level at all. Cormyr has been in a prosperous age for several centuries. Although various minor turmoils continue, the several kings have always been relatively wise, especially Assan III, who pushed this kind of rule to an unprecedented peak. Tethyr has fallen into chaos for half a century. The royal family has existed in name only and has long since entered a state of exile. Lords and warlords from all over the country have been fighting for many years. Most cities and castles have become isolated islands. Monster tribes are overrun and raging, and everything is waiting to be revitalized. Zalanda relied on half a hundred militiamen and led thousands of people to rise up and seize a city with tens of thousands of people. It was built in this special environment. If it were placed in Cormyr, a few purple dragon patrols could unite to destroy it. Disabled. Bed didn't think as much as Gavin did. He only had one thing in mind, that is, the Golden Lion and the Silver Eagle. He was calculating in his mind, and he was calculating quickly. If Gavin gave a concession, he would get more profit from shipping the iron ore to Cormyr. As a result, this deal was worth doing. The final selling price of shipping the iron ore to Sembia might be higher than that of Cormyr, and the tax paid would be less, but the distance was relatively long, so the transportation cost would naturally go up, and the final profit of the two was about the same. But shipping to Cormyr had hidden benefits. Compared with the merchant alliance model of the Kingdom of Cormyr, Sembia had a unified state system. If they could take the opportunity to enter the ranks of official suppliers, their Qianshou Trading Company would really gain a foothold. They would not dare to say that they could walk sideways in the surrounding areas, but at least the pattern would be opened up. After finishing the mental calculation, Bede's eyes were smiling and disappeared. He patted his chest and promised: "Doing business with Brother Gavin is straightforward. Leave this matter to me. I promise to let the name of your Black Well tribe spread to the ears of all Cormyr people."
"What do I need these false names for?" Gavin said with a smile, "Making a lot of money in a low profile is the kingly way. Aren't you afraid of attracting more merchants to Black Well?" Bede said proudly, "Even if you put aside your personal relationship with Brother Gavin and compete in the same position, your uncle Bede is not afraid of them. He still has this confidence." "I believe this." Gavin was not complimenting. Bede was indeed an excellent businessman, but because of his humble background and small starting point, he lacked an opportunity to soar to the sky. "I brought part of the money for the harpy egg, 20,000 pure Cormyr gold lions, you send someone to count it." Bede directly took the cash from Karasa. In Faerun, mages are also nicknamed "mages", which are synonymous with wealthy people. Their mages' towers are as famous as dragons' nests. There is no way, magic goods and normal goods are not the same price. Even the most common magic items start at hundreds of gold coins. Hiring a mage to cast a first-level spell requires two or three hundred gold coins, and even magic apprentices cannot be hired. It is unimaginable for humans to have a large number of spells to help with mining and daily work like the Black Well Tribe. This is also another important reason why Gavin chose the monster race to start his career - different racial concepts. Not to mention a warlock, even humans who have awakened spell-like abilities will raise their own value. Unlike the Black Well, the kobolds with the ability to find dragons are just specially valued. In life, they still eat and live like ordinary kobolds, and their wages - the wealth they create, all belong to the collective ownership of the tribe. Kobolds who talk about wages and treatment are not good kobolds. Bang! Bang! Bang! The knock on the door interrupted Gavin's meeting with Bede. Carter, the dragon-blooded dog-headed man who had just been transferred to Gavin's guards, came in and reported: "Chief, there is a strange human merchant outside, clamoring to see you, and his attitude is very tough. How do you think we should deal with it?" Under Gavin's subtle influence, the attitude of the Black Well Dog-headed Man towards humans, especially human merchants, has changed a lot. In their eyes, it is their grain transport team, and they treat all human merchants very politely. "You merchants have a better nose than dogs. As long as there is a business opportunity, you can smell it even if you are dozens of kilometers away." Gavin couldn't help but joke with Bede. Gavin knew that soon there would be strangers who would come to him on their own initiative, but he didn't expect it to be so soon. "Normal." Bedard was not surprised at all. "Our Qianshou Chamber of Commerce has been in and out of the Rock Land several times. The amount of high-quality iron ore produced by the Black Well has been transported out more and more each time. Even a fool can guess that there is an iron mine in the Rock Land, and there is no way to keep it secret. They have only come to us now, which is a great dereliction of duty."
