CHAPTER 556: Klein's Madness
For the next few days, Mr. Zhao Hai stayed at the Blood Lotus Shop, but he was not idle. Now that most of the maps of the Orc Prairie had been stored in his space, there was still a large portion that had not been stored. However, since he was about to conduct business with the entire Orc Prairie, it was essential to store the complete map of the Orc Prairie.
During these days, Atai and the others were also extremely busy trading with the orcs. The Blood Lotus Shop had finally established a solid reputation among the orc tribe, not only because they were the first shop to receive the Friendship Flag from the orcs, but also due to the recent events.
Many useless items that the orcs were reluctant to discard could actually be considered their property, but they were merely taking up space. Other orcs understood that those items were also useless to them.
Now that the Blood Lotus Shop was willing to exchange with them, they were naturally very happy. The entire Orc Prairie was stirred up, and the orcs' goodwill towards the Blood Lotus Shop increased significantly.
Zhao Hai had not anticipated that his momentary act of kindness would earn him the goodwill of the orc tribe. Such goodwill was not easily obtained; in the future, even if other merchants came to the Orc Prairie to conduct business, the existence of this goodwill would make the orcs more willing to trade with the Blood Lotus Shop.
Just five days after Zhao Hai had met the Beast King, the Beast God City finally reacted. The Beast King dispatched someone to issue a proclamation, which was similar to ancient Chinese official documents, and was issued in the name of the Beast King. This time, he was conveying the intention to collaborate with Zhao Hai on the milk wine business to the clan leaders of the various orc tribes.
This caused an even bigger uproar, with many clan leaders rushing to Beast God City to verify the authenticity of the news. Atai and the others became even busier, having to deal with the inquiries from those clan leaders every day.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Hai knew it was time to go to the Golden Ring Eagle Tribe. Through the Golden Ring Eagle Tribe, he aimed to find the Eagle King Tribe and then collaborate with the entire Eagle Clan.
On the third day after the Beast King’s proclamation, Zhao Hai left Beast God City in a carriage, heading towards the residence of the Golden Ring Eagle Tribe.
The Golden Ring Eagle Tribe was considered a powerful warrior tribe among the Eagle Clan. They were the most skilled archers among the orcs; although they were not very tall, their mounts were incredibly fast and were known as the most famous aerial scouts among the orcs.
Previously, the Golden Ring Eagle Tribe had some collaboration with the Magedel family, but the business methods of the Magedel family were too overbearing. Therefore, the cooperation with the Golden Ring Eagle Tribe was not very deep; it could only be considered a moderate level of collaboration.
Zhao Hai’s carriage moved quickly. He wanted to establish cooperation with the eagle people as soon as possible and then discuss collaboration with the selected tribes so that the milk wine industry could get on track as soon as possible.
During these days, Zhao Hai spent quite a bit of gold coins in his space, creating a number of high-end distillation devices, which had been installed in Iron Mountain Fortress, significantly increasing the yield of wine.
Of course, these devices also required power. However, Zhao Hai had already thought of this; he specifically had the universal machine create a set of hydropower generators in the space. Although the power output was not very high, it was sufficient for brewing wine.
Naturally, Zhao Hai was very cautious regarding the use of electricity, instructing the workers to be extra careful. He did not want any accidents to occur.
As soon as Zhao Hai took out these items, he immediately captivated someone. That person was none other than his father-in-law, Klein.
