Bab 137: Nature of the local development

26th April 1574

While traveling on the horseback through the night was simply impossible due to how high of a risk it posed for the horses to trip, doing so on the river wasn't that much of a trouble. As long as one was willing to waste his manpower of people constantly making sure that the shore was far enough while the waterway was deep enough, moving through the river was pretty feasible.

Yet, with how only the merchants were scheduled to come soon with the supplies from Sandomir that would let the development of this place finally reach the stage on which I could produce most of the simple stuff locally rather than relying on the external source for all sorts of products, I couldn't help but wonder what made them go for such lengths to travel overnight!
