Mitos was a man from Lys, who used to own a fruit shop in Lys, specializing in providing fresh fruit to the brothels and inns, big and small.
However, during the Great Plague, his business plummeted, a large quantity of fruit went unsold and eventually rotted in his hands. He lost a large sum of money and had to sell his house in Lys to pay off his debts.
Originally, he planned to become a sailor with other Lysians who went bankrupt during the Great Plague, but after learning about the Calamity City, which was under construction, he changed his mind and chose to come to Calamity City.
Unlike others who came to Calamity City to live, he was not a follower of the god of calamity; he believed in Night Lion. His choice to come to Calamity City was purely because he saw immense business opportunities there.
After arriving at Calamity City, he used his limited funds to buy a large amount of wheat and fruit, which he made into fruit bread and sold specifically to workers at various construction sites.
Later, he was even noticed by the Summerhall official in charge of construction, who signed a special supply contract with him to provide food for the workers.
By now, he had become the largest food supplier in Calamity City, not only providing food for construction sites but also supplying desserts for the Chosen Legion.
As usual, Mitos personally led the team to deliver desserts to the Chosen Legion. While his servants were moving the goods, he found the senior military officers of the Legion to socialize and deepen their relationship.
Although Mitos had become the largest food supplier in Calamity City, he was not satisfied. He also hoped to secure the daily food supply for the Chosen Legion. The daily food consumption of five thousand people was no small amount; only by becoming the food supplier for the Chosen Legion could he truly solidify his position as the largest food supplier in Calamity City.
As always, those officers did not give him any promises. He was not discouraged by this; he believed that with deeper communication, he would eventually obtain the long-term supply contract he desired.
As Mitos and his men walked out of the barracks, a team of Calamity Rangers happened to pass by. Judging from the blood on these Rangers and the prisoners behind them, this team of Rangers must have just completed a patrol mission and dealt with a group of bandits.
"Captain Pan!" Seeing the Captain leading the team, Mitos quickly waved to him and said loudly, "I was just looking for you in the barracks. They said you were out on a mission. I didn't expect to run into you just as I was leaving. This must be the god of calamity's arrangement, otherwise, it wouldn't be such a coincidence."
"Boss Mitos, I'm afraid you've said those sweet words to quite a few people!" Pan pulled the reins to stop his horse, motioned for his subordinates to continue leading the men back to the barracks, and then said to Mitos, "As before, you haven't gotten what you wanted, have you?"
"It's alright, I believe everyone in the barracks will feel my sincerity. One day, I will be honored to serve you all, sirs." Mitos humbled himself, speaking with a smile.
Pan and Mitos had a decent relationship, and Pan had received quite a few benefits from him, so he kindly reminded him, "It's useless. Even if all the officers in the barracks agree to it, it won't work."
Mitos was stunned after hearing this and asked, "Why?"
Pan thought for a moment, confirmed that what he was about to say did not involve any secrets, and then directly stated, "All the military provisions for the Legion are directly allocated from Summerhall's Military Logistics Department, usually once a year, with a year's worth of provisions allocated at a time. And the Military Logistics Department is under the jurisdiction of the Military and Political Department. You only have a chance to become a military food supplier if you negotiate with Summerhall and the Military and Political Department."
