If it was just selling, it would not be too difficult for Chen Heng.
After all, the Kutu Royal City was the capital of the Kutu Principality, and there were many major figures there. Many of them could easily buy a large amount of goods.
With the connections that Chen Heng had built up in the Kutu Royal City over the past half a year, it would not be too much of a problem for him to buy all of these goods.
It was just that this could cause some problems.
Dumping large amounts of similar goods in the same region in a short period of time would lower the price, and it would not be easy to sell them.
Even if they could be sold, it would not be beneficial to them.
Moreover, this cooperation was just the beginning.
As time passed, when the lords of the north tasted the sweetness of trade, they would definitely work even harder to plunder goods and capture slaves.
When that time came, they would only be lacking the connections in the Kutu Royal City.
Moreover, even if Chen Heng wanted to win over more people, he should not do this.
If he dumped those things in the Kutu Royal City and sold them through those major figures, those major figures would not feel grateful towards him and would only feel that this was an exchange of benefits.
As such, the truly major figures did not lack their own sources of income. Even though they would care about the profits that Chen Heng brought, they would not care too much about it.
However, if he gave these things to people who needed them more, the situation would be different.
It was better to provide timely assistance than to add flowers to embroidery; this was something that many people understood.
Because of these considerations, the rulers near Baron Kaisen were the most suitable targets to trade with.
As lords of the south, these lords were much better than the lords of the north.
However, there was a limit to how good they were.
The southern rulers were good because their land was fertile and warm, and they had enough food.
Moreover, even though the southern rulers also had battles, they did not have to defend against the Outlanders like the northern rulers did. As such, they did not have to bear the costs of fighting, so their overall situation was much better.
However, this only meant that they did not have to be as poor as the northern rulers.
In actuality, they were still in a state of poverty, and even after many years, they would not be able to save up much. It could only be said that they did not have to worry about basic expenses.
It was still difficult for them to live luxurious lives.
For these people, opening up a new source of income was much more important.
As for the profits that Chen Heng had brought, they valued them even more.
Once they had tasted the sweetness, it would not be easy to make them stop.
When that time came, whether it was out of their own will or because they were forced to, they would form a community of interest with Chen Heng.
Apart from being able to take out more benefits, they were Chen Heng's staunchest supporters.
Of course, in order to achieve this goal, he first had to get the surrounding lords to cooperate with him.
As Chen Heng's father, Baron Kaisen naturally had no problem with this.
As for the other rulers, he would have to go and talk to them one by one.
Fortunately, things were going smoothly for now.
He had only released some news, and there were already many people who had taken the initiative to approach him.
From the looks of it, the situation was not bad.
In the following period of time, Chen Heng once again became busy.
Not long after settling down in Baron Kaisen's manor, he once again got up and went to the other rulers' manors to discuss matters with them.
In the beginning, everything went smoothly.
In order to rope in the nearby rulers, Chen Heng gave them generous conditions.
According to the agreement, he would give a portion of the goods he obtained from the northern rulers to the other rulers and sell them at a good price.
For this, these rulers could choose to pay the equivalent price of food or other crops.
From a certain perspective, Chen Heng's actions were equivalent to turning these rulers into dealers.
He and the family behind Krudo would provide the goods, and the goods would be distributed to the various rulers, who would then sell them.
This way, the benefits of all three sides would be guaranteed.
Using this method, even though he would not be able to maximize his profits, he would be able to quickly distribute the resources provided by the northern rulers and would not be squeezed.
At the same time, because of the climate in the north, the prices of food and other crops were much higher than in the south, while furs and slaves were much cheaper.
It was the opposite for the south.
When buying furs and slaves from the northern rulers, Chen Heng could use food as collateral, while in the south, he could ask the southern rulers to use food and other crops as collateral.
This way, he would be able to make a lot of money.
For the northern rulers, Chen Heng's actions could solve the problem of having to sell large amounts of goods. At the same time, using food as collateral would alleviate the logistical pressure from the long war.
For the southern rulers, it was not difficult to sell furs and other goods. Whether it was to sell to merchant groups or to send people to sell them, it was not difficult and they could easily make a profit.
For the southern rulers, with the warm climate and abundant food, using food as collateral would reduce the pressure on them.
After all, the southern rulers were poor because they lacked money.
As for food, that was not a big problem.
This was the exact opposite of the northern rulers.
This was a typical problem caused by a lack of goods.
The southern region had a warm climate and abundant food, so they produced a lot of food.
However, the high production of food meant that they could not sell it for a high price.
As a result, the southern lords generally had food in their hands, but lacked the currency to buy it.
Chen Heng's arrival solved this problem for them.
While Chen Heng was working hard in the southern region, within the Kutu Royal City.
Within the palace, Verna finally received a letter from Chen Heng.
"Is this letter for me?"
Looking at the letter in her hand, Verna raised her head and asked.
"That's right."
In front of her, the female servant nodded, "According to Sir Carey's butler, before Knight Kaelin left, he went to that place to see you. After not seeing you, he left this letter.
"By now, Knight Kaelin has most likely returned to his homeland."
"I see …"
Verna nodded. Thinking about Chen Heng's appearance, she could not help but feel nostalgic and sad.
