Chapter 136: Chapter 113: Entering West Trade and Building New Trade Routes (Part 2)

The Western region is rich in resources, which means that each Pioneer Lord possesses a large amount of resources.

Even though some of these resources have gathered in Loren City, there are still many left in the various territories that can be utilized if a trade route is established.

Especially with Silver Armor as the key to open the door, things will proceed even more smoothly.

And there won’t be much of a problem.

"Brother, Lord Barbus, we can form a chamber of commerce, with investments from all three of us, dispatch knights for escort, and how about dividing the profits equally among our families?"

Seeing the excitement of the three, Thor couldn’t help but smile slightly and spoke these words.

"Lord Thor, you speak too highly!"

"This is your idea; splitting equally is too much. Just give me five percent. I’m willing to deploy one Great Knight, two Official Knights, and ten Apprentice Knights."

Upon hearing Thor’s words, Barbus pondered slightly and still shook his head, responding seriously.

"Indeed, brother, this is your plan; we can’t let you suffer. Five percent is fine for me. Without you, I’d still be selling ore, and might not even be able to claim this territory!"

"As for the trade convoy’s forces, I’ll also deploy one Great Knight, ten Official Knights, and thirty Apprentice Knights."

Tono replied with a smile as well.

The two were not in a position to take advantage.

The previous results had already left them feeling very embarrassed, so they naturally couldn’t shamelessly split equally.

Ultimately, after Thor’s strong insistence.

The two agreed to take twelve percent each, while Thor took sixty-five percent, and Rajos Assad took eight percent.

Thor, of course, wouldn’t forget about his ally who helped him build a new trade route.

After all, he would need this ally to open up the Western trade routes next.

And Rajos Assad took eight percent, while Tono and Barbus did not object after Thor explained the situation.

The only issue was that Tono showed some unusual expression when he heard Rajos’s surname.

However, it was merely some unusual expression.

The territory was not obtained from the Assad Family descendants, but from the Sheep-headed Men; even if the current Count Assad came, he couldn’t say anything.

Besides, since Thor let this person manage the trade route, there certainly wouldn’t be any problem.

Indeed, it was the case.

Despite being descendants of the Assad Family, Rajos had no good feelings for his siblings.

Naturally, he wouldn’t care about them.

Upon learning Thor was preparing to establish a chamber of commerce and get involved in the entire West, his expression showed a hint of joy.

Even though the share was diluted, he still felt excited.

Rajos had been in the Northern Province for quite some time already, and he naturally knew that the prosperity of the West could not be compared to the East or the North.

Even though diluted, the eight percent revenue would far exceed the previous amount.

More importantly, during this time of interaction with Thor, he saw limitless future possibilities.

Even without anything else, he was willing to follow him.

Let alone with eight percent of the profit share.

So on the third day after arriving, Rajos Assad began to take action.

While Thor, Tono, and Barbus began discussing other distribution matters for the territory.

They had previously promised Agate that the production for three years would go to Thor; even if it went from one site to two, the two had no intention to change and decided that Agate’s production for these three years would still be given to Thor.

Concerning the large iron ore deposit, and the copper mine, Thor arranged for people to conduct mining.

The division of proceeds was forty percent for Thor, thirty percent for distribution, another ten percent was a reward for mining with goblins, twenty percent for Tono, shifting ten percent to Barbus as compensation for him giving up future three years’ profit from two sites of Agate, together with Tono’s ten percent, Barbus likewise took forty percent.

All other resources obtained from the territory were evenly split among the three.

These were not included in the chamber of commerce’s division, belonging to the spoils of this war.

Regarding this division, the three were extremely satisfied.

Even Tono and Barbus felt a bit embarrassed, feeling they profited a lot.

After all, being able to take this land with such a low cost this time was decisively due to Thor and the Knight Order he brought.

Without Thor, even if they managed to capture the territory, the losses would have been immense.

However, Thor strongly insisted, forcing them to accept it.

As for Thor, he did not care about these small profits; he cared more about the upcoming Western trade route construction.

Once completed, it would be a truly enormous income.

This current division could improve goodwill and demonstrate to his brother and Barbus that following him would ensure enough Gold Coins.

As long as they recognized him sincerely.

It would make many things easier moving forward.

Indeed, it turned out to be the case.

After the division.

Everything was extremely smooth for trade route establishment and new planning.

Tono and Barbus almost completely adhered to Thor’s arrangements.

Under Thor’s plans, things were quickly put into action.

Even just on the fifth day.

Rajos Assad led a trade convoy and set off.

The newly captured large iron ore and copper mine were naturally yet to be mined, the goblins needed for mining hadn’t been brought over, but Eagle Territory already possessed a lot of Armor, weapons, including Silver Armor, and Rajos Assad brought much of it this time.

Enough to serve as the foundation to open the trade route during the early stage.

Due to the greater strength of the Western Lords, stronger forces were equipped for Rajos Assad this time.

A total of three Great Knights, twenty Official Knights, forty Apprentice Knights, over three hundred Reserve Riders, distributed by Thor, Tono, and Barbus.

Thor even had Reine involved in this.

For one, Reine’s strength was strong enough, surpassing a typical Great Knight, for another, he could acquire some experience through trade route construction.

With such strength, even in Western territory, it surpassed most Pioneer Lords, almost beyond ninety-nine percent of Lords.

The West indeed had many strong Lords.

Yet Thor previously held power beyond ninety percent of Northern Province Lords was not bragging.

It was fact.

Only the West with its abundance of strong Lords creates the illusion that powerful Lords are everywhere.

In reality, Pioneer Lords with Great Knights aren’t common, even in the West; let alone those with three Great Knights, including one capable of slaying Tier Two Peak Beastmen, such presence.

Additionally, the initial trade route establishment does not require dealing with such strong Lords; naturally, it doesn’t need much worry.

Facing ordinary Lords, such power can almost sweep through.

It’s not the trade convoy that needs to consider safety, but whether the Lords facing such power need to worry about safety.

In this situation, everything is naturally extremely smooth.
