Many territories with numerous past trades with the Bay Territory have already refused to sell ores, magical materials, and other goods to the Bay Territory.
Regarding this, the Bay Territory was not surprised.
The only consolation was that they were still willing to buy products produced by the Bay Territory.
Quality goods at a low price that could consume their resources.
Contrary to these lords' expectations, the Bay Territory did not sever ties with them or even make symbolic price increases, acting as if nothing had happened.
This strange situation immediately aroused the suspicion of the hidden masterminds behind the scenes.
Then they learned that the Bay Territory was buying food in large quantities in Blood Moon City.
Some food merchants exchanged their food for a batch of potions from the Bay Territory.
The price of food in the entire Blood Moon City had risen by more than twenty percent.
