The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1958

Chapter 1958: Unstable Coast

That was not good news. Port city instability was bad for business. But Karl also didn’t want to get involved in a major Clan war either.

They had seen enough trouble of their own, and they didn’t need to get drawn into a regional war.

The fact that it hadn’t made it this far didn’t mean that it wouldn’t, especially when there were alliances that spread much further than just the peninsula.

"Can you let the others know that I will pay well for information on the regional situation? I want to know what the chances are that it will affect our sales, both positively and negatively. If there is going to be a huge regional war, we’re going to have a booming weapon sales business, but it would be best if we could hide our names on the weapons.

There is a technique to have the System not tag us, and have the weapon creation tag simply not show up.

If that is necessary to avoid our weapons showing up on every side of a regional war, we will do it. There is nothing worse for business than being known as the arms dealer who is supplying both sides of a war.

It seems like impartial business to start with, but in the end, it always looks like opportunism. Playing both sides against the middle."

The Captain nodded. "Indeed. I see that this shipment is heavy on the standard warrior weapons, as well as assorted accessories, so there will be some of that going around. But as everything goes through the auctions, I don’t think that it’s going to be a problem in the immediate future.

There are four hundred million people combined between the port cities of the south.

Even if you shipped nothing but swords, it would take a hundred ships just to arm the city guards of every town. It’s the Peerless Grade items that are going to make the biggest splash, and that will be in battles between the Clan Leaders.

The ones with the funds to get their hands on that level of weapons and accessories are going to have a huge advantage over their peers, who were previously well balanced with them.

If they were not well balanced, one would have already swallowed the others.

It will bring business to the docks, as they have no idea where the Darklight Host is even stationed at. For all they know, you’re not even on the same continent that they are. Or, you could be one of our off world suppliers.

Those are less common, but we do source items from them occasionally.

When the fleets get more news, we will let you know, so that you can be prepared, and so we can profit."

Karl laughed at her earnest and eager expression.

"I can’t argue with that. Even if we shipped nothing but a hundred thousand Rare Grade weapons, we would make a killing. Possibly by exhausting some of our workers to death, but the profit would be incredible.

Would you like to add a few more Peerless Grade specialty items to your order? I have some extras."

The Captain shook her head. "No, I’ve budgeted around the order that was placed. I’m still a young Elf, with a newly built ship. I don’t have a thousand years of savings to fall back on."
