Chapter 495: Road Toll
A caravan has traveled a long way from the northwest of Wood Dynasty, heading east. The cargo they carried was indeed weird - cartloads of silkworm cocoons.
Though silkworm farming thrived in the southeastern region, and skilled weavers there wove beautiful silk that was sold throughout Wood Dynasty, no one has ever heard of silkworm farming in the northwest that sold cocoons to the southeast.
However, the caravan's owner was generous, and they passed through checkpoints with ease. They seemed to travel at quite a fast pace by some means, and in just over ten days, they arrived near East Immortal Lake.
Upon settling in a small town late at night, the owner quietly approached the ten carts carrying the silkworm cocoons and whispered, "Master, we have arrived."
"Those men were hired by me to provide food for my master. Please enjoy!"
