ME 22 Shendra Village

“Siendra” Village

That was the word written on a stone monument in front of the village entrance. It seemed that in addition to the same currency, the entire kingdom in the Andradius Continent also had the same language. This is quite encouraging information for Matthew. With this he did not have to bother learning a new language.

The atmosphere of the village was quite crowded when Matthew entered the village of Siendra. At the entrance of the village were seen several people crowding. Most of them were clustered near the neatly lined horse carriages.

It seemed like it was the same merchant caravan as the one who usually visited the village where he lived. Many items are usually sold by caravans of merchants.

The merchants often visited small villages to buy various goods. Like the skin of a monster that has been dried, preserved monster meat and medicinal plants that may be found by villagers who border the Morento Forest.

Instead, the merchant caravan carried fabrics, cooking spices, kitchen utensils, weapons and a wide variety of items from the big city. With this caravan, the villagers did not need to travel long distances to sell their goods.

It was fortunate that now they met this merchant caravan. Matthew will get more complete cooking spices. Matthew wanted to buy some seasoning for his preparations to go on a long trip.

In this long journey, it was not forever that they would find a village where there was a tavern selling food. There must be times when they will be in the middle of the forest to rest. The spices that Matthew will buy this will be his capital to cook delicious food later.

Do not underestimate the seasoning sold by this merchant caravan. The spices that the merchants were selling could have been far more complete than what was sold in stores in the big city.

From the story of his parents Matthew knew that the merchant caravan was traveling between cities and even between kingdoms. So it is definitely the seasoning they have more complete. They would gather all the herbs from every area they passed by.

“Ah lucky once we meet the caravan of traders. We can go with them to travel. I hope they're one-way with us.” Said John.

John invites the three twin brothers to approach the merchant caravan. After closer Matthew and his two younger siblings could see various kinds of goods on the merchants' train. The train that was currently in front of them focused on buying and selling monster skins. Seen a lot of monster skin spills in the car.

“Is there anything I can do to help Mr?” ask a man with a slightly distended stomach.

Several gold rings were seen adorning the fingers of the man. Her clothes looked more expensive than the clothes of those around them. It looks like the clothes are made of silk. From the appearance of the man, Matthew could already guess the identity of the man in front of them. It was certain that this man was the merchant in this caravan.

“Are you going to buy Mister's monster skin? We have a lot of monster skins. From Iron to platinum. Not only that, we also provide a variety of clothes and weapons that have a quality far above the blacksmith in this village.”

“You just call it what you want, we from Caravan Gold Mine will try our best to fulfill your wishes.” Said the man with a big smile.

It seemed like this merchant in front of them was not looking down on them. Today the clothes they wear are not clothes that show luxury. They only wear ordinary clothes. Matthew himself did not understand why the merchant in front of them could be so friendly.

They don't look like a customer who can make a big profit. Although Matthew had a lot of money, and John certainly had more money than him, but they did not carry anything in their bodies.

Maybe the merchant in front of him thinks everyone is their field of money so as not to distinguish one person from another.

“I'm not looking for stuff. Where's your caravan going? Are you going through Greenwood City?” ask John without further ado.

“Ah, Greenwood City. Of course we'll be there. We have to sell some things and fill our stock with others. Will you follow our entourage?” ask the merchant with sparkling eyes.

“Yes, do you still have a slot to get there? If you can, give us a special train. I don't want to mix with other people I don't know.”

“Of course Mr. Everything can be arranged. It just so happens that we still have an empty car. So, you can use the train Mr.” Clearly the merchant was with a smile that never disappeared from his lips.

“How long will it take you to get to Greenwood City?” ask John.

“From Siendra Village to Greenwood City takes ten days of travel. That does not include the time we stopped in some cities to fill the stock. The fastest we need twenty-two days to arrive at Greenwood City.”

John seemed to be silent for a moment after hearing the merchant's words. He considered the length of the journey they had to make. Twenty-two days to get to Greenwood City was too long for John. He wants to go faster.

As if understanding John's thoughts, the merchant spoke again. “If you feel like twenty days is too long, you can follow us all the way to Suiria City. It will still take another week until we reach Suiria.”

“From the city of Suiria there will be our group who immediately travel to Greenwood City without stopping to re-stock. From Suiria City to Greenwood City would take five to seven days. But if you follow the entourage from Suiria City to Greenwood City the cost will not be cheap. Especially if you ask for a special train.” Obviously the Trader.

“No problem for me. How much do I need to pay?” ask John.

“Four gold coins for the four of you. Not including food. We only prepared the carriage and the coachman for you. There are no other facilities. Then, when resting during the trip, you need to pay for your own lodging Mr.” Obviously the trader.

See it's not it can be solved with a few gold coins. Not too much for John who has a lot of money. “No problem for me. If it's time to go, inform me. I'll eat first. For payment, I will do after we reach Suiria.” City

“No problem Sir. I'll have my men inform you. We leave at the earliest three hours. So enjoy your rest time Mr.”

After reaching an agreement, John took Matthew and his two younger siblings to the tavern he was talking about. He could not wait to fill his stomach. Although previously he had spent a lot of sandwiches, but after teleporting he felt hungry again.

The merchant looked at John and the two brothers. A wide smile was still clearly visible on the merchant's lips. After he did not see John again, the merchant called his men who were not far from him.

“Ron come.” Said the merchant.

His men named Ron rushed to the merchant. From earlier he had indeed noticed his boss's conversation with the shabbily dressed man earlier. He was amazed by his boss' attitude. Why is he so polite to the person who looks like he doesn't have the money.

Usually if there is a person who looks to have no money, the boss will ask him or his other colleagues to serve customers. But for this one somehow the boss was eagerly serving his own customers who came.

“What's the Boss?”

“Prepare our best passenger train. You clean it all up. If necessary, you add a new cloth to the seat of the carriage. Replace car curtains with new ones. Don't let any dirt. Add fragrance to the train as well.”

“Bos are you sure? I heard that the man was just about to pay you when we got to Suiria City. Aren't you afraid they won't pay you? They seem to have no money. Their clothes are like that.” said Ron pensaran.

The merchant hit Ron's arm slowly. “What way are you. That can't be happening. Ron how long have you been following me, trivial things like this you still don't understand.”

“What does Boss mean. I really don't understand it.” Ron replied as he stroked his arm that was hit by his boss. Ron knew that his boss' punch would not cause a mark but it was quite painful for him.

“Don't judge people by how Ron looks. Did you see them coming from the Morento Forest. They brought nothing but the clothes they were wearing. That's Ron's key. They didn't bring anything.”

“But boss. They could be villagers, right? So it's only natural that they don't buy anything.”

“Indeed they could have been the inhabitants of this village. But you forgot one thing. The ring on the man's finger. Although it looks ordinary, I once saw a ring similar to that ring at the auction place in Greenwood City. Do you know how many rings are there?”

Ron shook. “One Hundred.”

“Oh only one hundred bronze coins. That's very cheap Boss.”

“It was not a stupid bronze coin, but a hundred low-level crystals.”

“What is a space ring?” ron did not believe it.

Only the space chips are sold at such a high price. Ron began to understand the reason his boss was so polite. The person who had the space ring could definitely take out a hundred silver coins with ease.

“But boss, is that a real ring? Aren't there some rings made as similar as possible to space rings?”

“It's impossible. I'm sure it's a real ring. They're going to Greenwood City. You know it's not that the closest town from here that has a teleportation portal is Greenwood City. I'm sure they're headed for Greenwood City with the intention of using the teleportation portal that's there.”

“One teleportation only we need ten gold coins per person. So, there was no way they would wear fake rings. I'm sure they're professional family members. The man was the elder of the family who was escorting the three children earlier.”

“At the end of Andradius Academy will open. So they were currently rushing towards Archdale City. In the city of Suiria there will be many caravans of disciples who will head to Archdale City. At our next stop, there could be people joining our caravan. So you have to prepare some trains.”

“If less, you just buy it to the villagers. After all we can resell unused trains. It would be very profitable for us to do this business. Not everyone asks for a special train for them. We can unite several people in one train later.”
