Chapter 893: Chapter 573, Border Warfare
“Demitrija, what do you mean?”
“My lord, I have sworn to be loyal to you, and this will not change,” Demitrija said solemnly.
Fang Hao was not worried about this.
From the very beginning, Demitrija’s Loyalty was very high.
And it had already reached 100 points, rendering any form of trickery or bribery ineffective.
Unless the Lizard Queen really summoned an Ancient Saint revered by the lizard people, perhaps that might cause some fluctuations in Demitrija’s heart.
...
Aside from that, it was simply not possible for Demitrija to betray him or the domain.
Fang Hao nodded in satisfaction, “Queen, Demitrija is a hero of the domain, and is also my family. I would not use a family member as a bargaining chip in trade, and I believe Demitrija thinks the same way!”
This outcome seemed to surprise the Lizard Queen.
The lizard people’s reverence for the Ancient Saints was something ingrained in their blood.
She did not expect that when she made such a proposition, the lizard people themselves would refuse so decisively, without a moment’s hesitation, nor did it seem to be a false pretext.
She was somewhat perplexed.
Similarly, the fact that humans valued the lizard people so much, calling them family, was surprising.

Beyond her surprise, it also caused her impression of Fang Hao to change once again.
“I won’t insist on this matter. The gates of the Holy Dynasty are always open to welcome back the followers of the Ancient Saints.” Not waiting for the other party to speak, the Lizard Queen continued, “So, what can you offer us?”
Back to the main topic, it was still her turn to state her price.
“Certainly, I wouldn’t let friends help for nothing,” Fang Hao thought for a moment and said, “In compensation, I will pay the Sacred Dynasty for ten thousand weapons of blue quality, be it long spears or war blades, you are free to choose.”
Ten thousand was, in fact, not a small number.
Judging by Trade Alliance outpost prices for blue weapons, even the cheapest at 200 Warfire Coins each would cost two million in compensation.
“Is that so~!” mused the Lizard Queen.
After pondering for a moment, she said, “Not bad, we do indeed need to replace some old equipment. What types of weapons can you provide?”
“That depends on what you are proficient in using?”
“Let’s see them all!”
Fang Hao did not hesitate, exchanging several types of weapons that were in stock in Zhang Bin’s warehouse.
Blue muskets, crossbows, and round shields were not among them.
Only weapons.
[Orc War Blade (Blue)] [Disciplinary Nail Hammer (Blue)] [Bandit Demon Head Knife (Blue)] [Military War Spear (Blue)] [Dwarf War Blade (Blue)].
Clang clang, a cacophony of sounds as weapons appeared one after another.
The clash of arms drew the attention of the guards outside the door, who rushed in to confirm it was safe.
Then, under the Queen’s icy stare, they immediately closed the door once more.
The Lizard Queen picked up each weapon to inspect it.
She promptly placed them all back down and asked softly, “Do you primarily deal in weapons at the Trade Alliance?”
“Yes, weapons and equipment, along with some tools,” Fang Hao answered.
“How are the prices?” It appeared the Lizard Queen was quite satisfied with these weapons and started inquiring about the prices.
Fang Hao responded, “For friends making a purchase, the more you buy, the cheaper it gets.”
“Ha ha, good, then I’ll take ten thousand of these. I’ll arrange for someone to visit your place later to check, and if the price is right, we could certainly cooperate more in the future,” continued the Lizard Queen.
The weapon she had picked up was the [Orc King’s War Blade], which looked like the large cleavers used in ancient times for beheadings.
At the junction of the handle and the blade, there was a ferocious beast’s head.
Its size and weight were very suitable for lizard people, and it had an impressive look.
One who didn’t know the properties of this weapon might mistake it for one of purple quality.
As for the further cooperation mentioned, Fang Hao was even more welcoming of it, as long as he could secure a deal with the lizard people.
He could earn back what he gave today, profit included.
“No problem, shall I hand over the ten thousand weapons to you now?” Fang Hao asked.
“The sudden appearance of so many weapons here might make the Trade Alliance think we’re going to rob them,” the Queen continued. “Later, I’ll have a transmigrator contact you, and you two can just conduct the trade directly.”
It seemed she knew quite a bit about transmigrators.
“That’s fine, then for the things I want…”
The Queen stood up, “Let’s go, we’ll buy what you need right now, but you’re paying for it yourself.”
“Of course.”
The group exited the lizard people’s shop and headed together towards ‘Coral Cottage’.
…
They re-entered Coral Cottage.
The shop assistant showed no surprise at their return.
The Lizard Queen gestured subtly, and a lizard person accompanying her presented an invitation card.
“Speak, what do you need?”
The shop assistant showed little reaction, taking the invitation card and looking toward Fang Hao.
This kind of approach was not uncommon in the Trade Alliance.
Immediately, Fang Hao said, “I need 50 clusters of Coral Crystals from upstairs, 50 clusters of Breeze White Coral, and also 50 units of Tears of The Ocean.”
The shop assistant took meticulous notes at the side.
Then he said, “The Coral Crystals will be 3.75 million in total for 50 clusters, the Breeze White Coral will be 4 million for 50 clusters, and the Tears of The Ocean will be 250 thousand for 50 units, totaling 8 million Warfire Coins.”
Hearing that Tears of The Ocean was in stock, Fang Hao felt a surge of joy.
He took out two leather cases, counted out 8 million Warfire Coins from within, and didn’t hand over the money directly but asked, “Can I take them with me now?”
The shop assistant explained, “Sir, it will take approximately two hours to prepare and deliver the items.”
