Vivian passed the message to Avril.
Avril, who was busy, put down her work and immediately started to help Luo De with the inquiry.
Before Avril could pass the message over, Baron Blom led his team out of the woods on the northeastern side.
Rein and Gang Le were the first net set by Luo De, and Baron Blom was the second net.
Baron Blom stationed himself in the northwest mountain forest, blocking the retreat route of the Lizardmen.
"Thank you for your cooperation, Baron Blom."
Luo De nodded and saluted after seeing Baron Blom, "After we're done here, I will give you some reward."
"I should be the one thanking you, Baron Rod."
Baron Blom's face was filled with joy, "Your intelligence was accurate, allowing me to carry out a beautiful ambush!"
"I killed seven Lizardmen and captured nine as prisoners!"
Blom leaned next to the Baron, "I think I should reward you, this time you really helped me earn a lot!"
"Oh?"
Luo De looked at Blom and casually asked, "By making money, do you mean from those Lizardmen corpses?"
Blom nodded.
"Do they have any special value?" Luo De pursued the question.
"Various parts of them are valuable."
Blom said in a low voice, "Beyond the Northern Territory, the alien races are mysterious and terrifying, many nobles like to collect their heads and claws to make specimens."
Lizardmen, this kind of alien race, are a symbol of wildness, danger, and mystery in the eyes of nobles.
Noble lords especially love to 'turn fear into glory.'"
Luo De had guessed before, as merchants had bought up deer heads and bear heads before.
Especially bear heads, which had to come with complete bear skins.
"The skin of Lizardmen can be made into gloves and belts, which are very popular!"
Baron Blom's mouth curled into a mysterious smile, "Some ladies and madams who seek novelty even like collars and corsets made from these skins!"
"Additionally, these spare bits, the scales can be made into necklaces and earrings; the tail can be turned into a whip."
"Even their hearts are bought by certain people."
Baron Blom squinted and calculated, "Let's put it this way, if you find the right buyer, a Lizardman corpse has a total value of over twenty Gold Coins."
"That expensive?"
Luo De looked at Baron Blom in surprise.
A single Lizardman corpse is nearly equivalent to the price of two or three elite slave soldiers.
Fortunately, I didn't throw away those Lizardmen corpses from before, just processed their internal organs.
Baron Blom nodded, "Of course, if there are too many, they may not count as scarce goods."
"But with just our few Lizardmen corpses, it shouldn't impact the overall price much."
With so many nobles in the Empire, if the price is right, many are willing to collect some.
"You seem well-informed about this, Baron Blom."
Luo De asked curiously, "Do you have a stable sales channel?"
"Yes."
Baron Blom did not hide it and explained, "After I came to the Northern Wasteland, the trade caravan sheltered by my family opened a new trade route to the west."
"If Baron Rod doesn't have a sales channel, I can purchase them."
Baron Blom emphasized, "At the original price, as a neighbor, I won't profit from your Gold Coins."
"Thank you for your kindness, if my merchant doesn't purchase them, I'll consider it."
Luo De believed in Baron Blom's sincerity.
But if these Lizardman corpses are indeed scarce good stock, Luo De thinks Man Xiu and the Dawn Society would both want them.
After all, they belong to his own trade network, selling to them could also help them expand their market.
"Have you interrogated the nine prisoners you captured?"
Luo De asked Baron Blom, "Is there any important information? What was the purpose of their attack this time?"
"No important information, they were all obeying orders to eliminate your Knights and advance team." Baron Blom said.
"Not to rescue those Lizardman prisoners?"
Luo De still suspected that there was something special about the prisoners, and couldn't help but ask again.
Baron Blom shook his head, "I interrogated repeatedly, indeed there was none."
"Just simple revenge? But it's normal that we humans don't understand the Lizardmen's thoughts."
Would Lizardmen do things without benefits?
Luo De was still a bit suspicious and didn't rush to a conclusion.
He changed the topic with a smile,
"Since you've finished interrogating those Lizardman prisoners, can you lend them to me?"
"You wouldn't be trying to tax me after knowing the value of the Lizardmen corpses, would you?"
Baron Blom's face was filled with concern.
"Oh? Why do you think I'd tax you?" Luo De asked in return.
"Baron Rod, I've already found out, the young lady beside you is Baron Avril."
Baron Blom said with an 'I see through it all' expression, "Judging by your intimate behavior, she'll be your wife in the future."
"You've got that right, I am indeed in control of the Razor Plain now."
Luo De no longer deliberately concealed Avril's identity, as those with intentions could indeed find out.
Next, Luo De would gradually take over the Razor Plain, telling others that this was not an ownerless land.
"But rest assured, we've both benefited from this battle, and fighting against the alien race is for all of us Northern Wilderness lords, I won't tax you."
Luo De openly stated, "I just want to kill those Lizardmen personally."
"That's quite a grudge?"
Baron Blom was slightly surprised but then caught on,
"Oh, you're avenging Baron Avril, right?"
"You could say that." Luo De nodded.
