CHAPTER 263: CHAPTER 168: YOU ARE MY INCARNATION (5K)

Lynn drew the longsword from his waist, wanting to jump into the river, but found there were still no signs of movement on the river surface.

Lynn could only return the longsword to its sheath and shook his head helplessly.

Ten-pound river fish, once caught, comes with a Skill Book.

A twenty or thirty-pound river fish, what kind of reward would there be if it were caught?

Lynn felt a mix of anticipation and regret in his heart.

A wooden fishing rod might still catch a ten-pound river fish.

But a twenty or thirty-pound river fish is indeed somewhat far-fetched.

A way must be found to improve the strength and resilience of the fishing rod!

The fishing rod snapped, so Lynn simply gave up fishing.

Stepping briskly, he headed towards the dock in the distance.

At this time.

Just in time, a few small boats returning from fishing were docking beside the shipyard.

With the cooperation of dozens of people at the shipyard, net after net of river fish was being lifted up.

The taut fishnets fell onto the shipyard platform and slowly spread out.

The river fish immediately started to flip and jump.

Lynn estimated that this net of river fish weighed at least six or seven hundred pounds!

After smoking in the smoking room, there would still be around five hundred pounds.

And the dissected fish’s internal organs could be processed to extract fish oil for producing candle oil lamps!

It was a shame that Lynn had tried before, using a fishing net does not yield the Fishing reward.

Otherwise, with so many fish... the rewards would be unimaginable.

After watching for a moment, Lynn headed back to the town.

On both sides, busy townsmen kept calling out "Master Lynn" as Lynn returned to the town.

Just as Lynn returned to the town, he saw George striding quickly towards him from afar.

George seeing Lynn from a distance relaxed his expression slightly, "Master."

Lynn responded, "What’s wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"

George explained, "Mr. Grayson came, and since you were not here, I took him to the trade guild hall."

Lynn continued, "Didn’t I say if I’m not around, you should handle the transactions?"

"Not dare?"

George had a slightly awkward expression, "Master, you misunderstood."

"I thought that Grayson was your trading partner, and if I conducted the transaction on my own, it would be a bit overstepping..."

"Moreover, would that be disrespectful to Mr. Grayson?"

Hearing this.

Lynn finally understood.

Why for every transaction George was responsible for assisting and arranging people to unload and load goods.

Lynn gazed directly at George, speaking in a deep voice, "George, there is something you might not understand!"

George was taken aback, looking somewhat bewildered at Lynn.

Lynn continued, "From the moment I accepted your allegiance, you became my household attendant!"

"You need to serve me as Lord, providing service for this territory, both physically and mentally."

"In return, I appoint you as the territory manager and merchant, so if I’m not around for external transactions, you are my representation!"

"You can exercise full authority in transactions!"

"If the other party refuses, you may expel them from the territory!"

"These powers are bestowed upon you by me, the Lord."

"Mr. George, do you understand?"

Listening to Lynn’s words, George’s whole body started trembling.

All along, he maintained the position of the Lord’s trade assistant, engaged in such work.

He never felt anything unusual.

But now, hearing the Master Lynn’s words, his heart was stirred.

Is this the power Master Lynn bestowed upon him?

He never considered it to be such great power.

George abruptly raised his head, looking directly at Lynn, firmly saying, "I understand, Master!"

Lynn nodded, "Good, now go complete the transaction with Grayson!"

"What needs to be said in a transaction, how to conduct the transaction, I don’t think I need to teach you anymore?"

A hint of confidence emerged on George’s face, "Of course, Master Lynn."

Lynn said, "Go ahead."

George bent slightly and walked towards the trade guild hall in the distance.

Watching George’s determined steps, Lynn nodded in satisfaction.

He naturally knew that because every time a merchant arrived, Kuisi would immediately find him.

That’s because in Kuisi’s view, large transactions like exchanging for fine salt could only be handled by him as the Lord, to give her peace of mind.

Lynn could also understand, Kuisi was originally a farm girl from the village, naturally concerned about the Lord’s property being disposed of recklessly.

Thus, over time, George gradually hid his trading ability.

Kuisi did nothing wrong, and George’s approach was reasonable.

But Lynn needed more talented people to stand out, help solve his problems, and handle the trivial matters around him.

If any merchant brought thousands of pounds of linen or grain to the territory, would require him to transact.

He would then have an endless amount of work!

Walking to a bench, Lynn sat down.

While enjoying the scenery in the distance, Lynn waited for George and Grayson to finish the transaction.

Until more than an hour later.

George and Grayson came leisurely from the market area, chatting and laughing.

The two rode side by side, with several guards following behind them.

Even though Grayson was a merchant from the Brown Merchant Family, this was Lynn’s territory, and George was the appointed manager merchant by the Lord.

Their status was at the same level.

George did not display the slightest humility or fall behind.

Until the two reached the empty square in town, George caught sight of Lynn ahead.

George stepped forward two steps to stand in front of Lynn, "Master."

Grayson also followed closely, smiling broadly, "Master Lynn, long time no see!"

Lynn returned the smile, "Transaction complete?"

Grayson said with satisfaction, "Master Lynn, Mr. George is an excellent merchant!"

If Lynn had not appeared all along, Grayson might have believed Lynn had no time to receive him.

Now Lynn showed up, obviously, Lynn was handing over transaction matters to George here.

However.

Even though it was the first time not conducting transactions with Lynn himself, the Lord.

As long as the transported goods could be exchanged for fine salt.

As long as he can always maintain a trading relationship with Lynn.

These, he did not care about.

After chatting casually with Lynn for a while, Grayson mounted his horse, leading his convoy of carts filled with fine salt away.

Only then.

George beside Lynn bent down and reported.

"Master Lynn, Mr. Grayson brought you two hundred slaves."
