Starting With A City As A Transmigrator - Chapter 10

Wang Lun didn’t have the time to hold a big celebration party. On the contrary, he went straight back into his room.

Right now, he needed to quickly transmigrate to the real world again to procure sufficient arrows and tough defensive armor.

This battle was the first battle of life and death that he had experienced, and it also showed him that he needed to protect his territory.

“Spacetransmigrate!”

Wang Lun’s eyes were slightly closed when he recited those two words under his breath.

The black hole that appeared before showed up in front of him again, and he didn’t hesitate to walk into it the slightest.

After a while, he once again returned to his room. This time, he came back alone and didn’t bring any purchases like before.

Because his trip to Earth this time was just to make a pre-order.

“Have you contacted Robinson?”

Wang Lun sat in the city hall, waiting for the man in front of him to give him an answer.

“Yes, my lord, but Robinson said he needs some time to prepare your needs.”

Wang Lun nodded and said, “All right. Now go and get the blacksmiths to build 200 arrows. Here’s the blueprint for the arrows.”

Since he didn’t have any more arrows from Earth, he could only build some first, just in case.

A few days later, he finally received news of Robinson’s arrival in Yale City.

“Hallmark, get a few soldiers to follow me to the market.”

Wang Lun led a group of people out of the city hall.

Upon arriving at the agreed upon location in the market, he spotted Robinson.

“Hey, my friend, over here!”

Wang Lun waved his hand from afar.

Robinson heard Wang Lun’s voice, turned around, and quickly rushed forward to greet him, “Greetings, my lord.”

“What? You expanded your team?” Wang Lun looked at the convoy at the back and asked.

Robinson shook his head and said, “Oh, it’s nothing. It seems that you’re doing quite well yourself in Yale City, my lord.”

Wang Lun chuckled. “I’ve only just started.”

“By the way, I got a huge sale from that mirror you traded with me earlier. I wonder if you have any more of those because many noblewomen are asking me for it!”

Wang Lun said: “I will give you any rare items I have when I get them. So where are the war horses I asked for?”

Wang Lun changed the topic back to the main business.

“I just got someone to pull them aside and feed them. After all, I can’t starve them before handing them over to you, my lord.”

Robinson laughed.

More like you’re going to raise their price, making sure that the horses are full before selling them to me for a better price.

Wang Lun thought.

“Thanks for the trouble, my friend,” Wang Lun said. “They are all superior horses, right?”

Robinson patted his chest and said, “I’ll definitely pick the best for your needs.”

Robinson was very good at flattering; even the soldiers following behind Wang Lun could see that.

“You’re pretty good at boot-licking.”

“Haha. You have a great sense of humor, my soldier friend,” Robinson said.

“So where are the horses, can you show us?”

Since Wang Lun was waiting around for the horses, he figured that he might as well go to them instead.

Robinson was about to advise Wang Lun to patiently wait for the horses, but he swallowed back the words that almost escaped his throat.

“Sure, the horses are just ahead.”

“In that case, we will follow your convoy,” Wang Lun said.

It was just as Robinson said. The group crossed the junction and immediately saw the feedlot in the corner.

However, it wasn’t originally used for breeding horses, but for farmers raising poultry instead.

“My lord, look, the horses are there.” Robinson pointed to the thatched hut ahead. “In fact, these horses had arrived in Yale City yesterday, but”

“But you hadn’t arrived in person yet, so you didn’t inform me for fear I would give you less in exchange.”

Wang Lun interrupted Robinson’s words, speaking the latter’s mind.

At that moment, all Robinson could do was smile. He didn’t want to cut off relations with this wealthy man just because of this matter.

“But I believe that you’re a generous man, my lord.”

Wang Lun held his head high and took a big step. “You’re right about that.”

Robinson swirled his eyes and quickly followed Wang Lun. “Oh, my lord, you brought anything good again?”

Wang Lun raised his hand and patted Robinson’s shoulder, laughing. “Fret not, I’ll absolutely not put you at a disadvantage. After all, we have a long way to go, working with each other.”

Right now, Robinson was a precious middleman who converted items into gold coins for Wang Lun. If Robinson were to leave, Wang Lun would have no idea who he would find to sell the items from Earth in his possession to.

As they spoke, they arrived in front of a large shed where the horses were located. Hallmark made a count; there were indeed 50 horses, no more and no less.

“Hallmark, how is it?”

Wang Lun was apparently inquiring about the quality of the horses and whether or not they could serve as war horses.

Hallmark randomly picked out a few of them and inspected for a while.

“They are suitable to be war horses, my lord,” Hallmark replied.

Wang Lun didn’t know much about horses, but as a knight, it went without saying that Hallmark was knowledgeable about such matters. And of course, Hallmark had already gained Wang Lun’s trust.

“Good. Thanks for your hard work, my knight!”

Wang Lun was satisfied with this answer.

“Well done. You’re a worthy partner to work with, Robinson.”

Robinson, for his part, shrugged as if saying, “That’s for sure, my friend.”

“I’ll give you three items in exchange.”

Wang Lun took a cloth bag from the soldier following beside him, which contained items from Earth.

Robinson’s eyes immediately widened. “Three? Are they as valuable as the mirror?”

Robinson said while eagerly leaning closer to Wang Lun.

“What is this?”

“This is perfume, my friend.” Wang Lun explained, “Put it next to your nose and give it a sniff.”

Robinson did as he was told, and the next instant he exclaimed, “Oh my God, what did you put in it? It is just an ordinary-looking bottle of liquid and it has such a strong fragrance!”

“Not only that, but the fragrance will also last for several days after spraying the liquid on one’s body.” Wang Lun leaned closer to Robinson and whispered, “If you were to sell this perfume to those noblewomen, it would definitely be worth more than the mirror.”

“What about these two?”

Wang Lun explained, “Face cream and nail polish. They are both great stuff. Face cream makes people more beautiful, while nail polish changes the color of nails.

“I guarantee that you’re in for a huge profit if you sell these three items to noblewomen.”

Robinson didn’t doubt Wang Lun’s words at the slightest. After all, this wasn’t their first time working together, and every single time, Robinson made a killing.

Both sides finally closed their deal. Not only did Wang Lun receive superior horses from Robinson, but in exchange, he had also gotten some gold coins, silver coins, copper coins, etc..

These currencies would come in handy during an emergency.

There were only a small number of soldiers in Yale City, so Wang Lun headed elsewhere to secretly recruit soldiers at high prices.

In a short period of time, not only did the number of soldiers grow, but the people in Yale City also felt safer.

If Miller knew about the great development of Yale City, he would certainly be annoyed for not extorting Wang Lun for a huge sum.

[System mission activated!]

Wang Lun was napping in his room when he was woken up by a voice ringing in his head.

“System mission?”

Wang Lun was puzzled.

“What mission?”

[Increase the population of Yale City to 10,000. Reward: Spatial storage bag.]

A spatial storage bag? Does that mean that I will be able to purchase more and larger items in the future?

Wang Lun was immediately overjoyed.

I may be able to bring over an aircraft too!
