Chapter 42: The Departure of the Merchant Group and the Crystallization of Energy

Yi Xingchen was very heroic when he purchased items, but when it came time to store the items, he had a headache. Because the number of Xinghua merchants is only about 50 people at present, the transportation capacity is not high, and it is impossible to "digest" so many commodities at one time, and there is no large warehouse in Xinghua China, and there is nowhere to store a huge number of items, so Yi Xingchen had to store most of the goods he just bought in the space first, and only took out a small part of them to the warehouse of Xinghua King's Palace and handed them over to the Xinghua merchant group for sorting.

The final number of members of the Xinghua merchant group that went to the east to trade was determined to be 55 people. In addition to all the official members of the merchant group, there were also forty guards of the Xinghua Kingdom. These guards are responsible for protecting the cargo and assisting in the delivery of the cargo.

In order to continue to win over the three hunters, Zhao Hu, Zhao Shi and Zhao Jin, Yi Xingchen, in the name of the king, specially approved the three of them to join the Xinghua Merchant Group, not only allowing them to have temporary residency in Xinghua City, but also handing over a mountaineering bag of salt to them.

Yi Xingchen made it clear to them that as long as they sold the salt they were responsible for, all the profits could belong to them as a subsidy for the guide.

With Yi Xingchen's encouragement, Zhao Hu and the three of them were pleasantly surprised, their enthusiasm was greatly exerted, and they naturally worked harder to earn benefits for the business group, and also spontaneously researched and formulated a safe business route.

After thorough preparations, the Xinghua trading group is about to set off. On that day, Yi Xingchen and Xian En personally sent Mu En to the east to leave the country for business at the gate of Xinghua City. After hearing the news, many people even appeared on both sides of the city gate and saw them off, and the whole scene was very enthusiastic!

This is the first time to do business, the bad luck is unknown, as the king, Yi Xingchen, told the 55 citizens of the Xinghua merchant group to remember that their lives are more important than goods, and no matter what happens, they must give priority to saving their lives.

Yi Xingchen's advice made all members of the business group suddenly moved. Mu En couldn't help but burst into tears, promising to live up to His Majesty's expectations.

Hundreds of citizens sent their blessings, such as "I wish them a smooth journey!" and "make a fortune!" and "return victorious!" all the way to the city gates.

Bidding farewell to the villagers, the first foreign trade activity of the Xinghua Business Group officially started.

After the Xinghua business group set off, Xinghua City calmed down again. The citizens who remained in the city returned to their duties one after another, and they were busy. Only Yi Xingchen was still standing on the city wall, looking down on his own country and his city, looking very serious.

Yi Xingchen looked down at the buildings under the city wall, with mixed feelings. In this short period of time, Xinghua City is changing with each passing day, and the prototype of the city has been, although it has not reached modern civilization, but it has got rid of the embarrassment of the past. Each family also has a place to live.

Seeing that the citizens of Xinghua Country were finally able to get rid of the hardships of eating and sleeping in the open and getting rid of the fear of being attacked by wild beasts repeatedly, Yi Xingchen was very relieved, and an indescribable sense of accomplishment arose.

Since the death of his parents, Yi Xingchen has no real home in Blue Mercury. Now studying in college, one is the habitual thinking of a student for more than ten years, and the other is to fulfill the promise to his mother. But in fact, before he knew it, he had already regarded Xinghua City as his home.

After a long time, Yi Xingchen returned to the palace. He instructed Sheehan not to stop the construction of the city, and the number of citizens of Xinghua Kingdom will only continue to rise in the future. Therefore, in addition to speeding up the construction of urban public facilities, it is also necessary to continue to build all kinds of houses in order to accommodate more people.

In fact, in terms of the current land area of Xinghua Kingdom, it is not small, and as long as it is effectively used, it should be able to accommodate tens of thousands of people to live together. Even if the number of citizens exceeds 10,000 in the future, the country can expand outward and establish new cities, rather than being confined to one city or one place.

Subsequently, Yi Xingchen also went to Lucas's brewery to check Lucas's progress and prepare to transport more wine back to the space.

At this time, the palace guards came to report that Allen, the captain of the guard, was in the palace and wanted to meet the king.

As the captain of the Kingdom Guard, Yi Xingchen attaches great importance to his audience. Because, if it weren't for something important, Alan would have explained it in just a few words, and wouldn't have asked for an audience in such a formal manner. Presumably, Alan must have something important and is anxious to report to Yi Xingchen

Yi Xingchen thought about it, first asked the guards to inform Alan to wait in the palace, and then turned around and instructed Lucas's apprentices and the palace guards to move the finished Forget Worry Wine and Linggu Wine to the palace warehouse.

Rushing back to the palace, Yi Xingchen saw Allen. As soon as he saw Yi Xingchen, Alan immediately took the initiative to come forward to pay respects.

Immediately after, Alan took out a glittering crystal the size of a goose egg with a happy face, and said as if offering a treasure: "Your Majesty, we have found energy crystals in the body of the wolf. ”

"Energy crystals?what is it?" Yi Xingchen secretly searched the memories of the previous king, but did not find any information about energy crystals.

Alan explained, "This is a treasure that grows in the beast's head, a crystallization containing huge energy, which can be used to assist in sword qi cultivation. ”

When Yi Xingchen heard this, a trace of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes. He had been cultivating primary swordsmanship, but he couldn't enter, so he immediately asked, "You mean, with energy crystals, I can refine sword qi?"

Alan smiled slightly and said, "I don't dare to guarantee it, but with energy crystals, it can indeed increase the chance of condensing sword qi!"

"How many energy crystals do you have?" Yi Xingchen asked as he put the energy crystals in his palm and looked at them carefully.

"Now there is only one," Alan said hurriedly, "I can organize the guard to hunt the beast if the king wants." ”

Yi Xingchen thought for a moment and asked, "Do the beasts in the Valley of Oblivion have energy crystals?"

Alan shook his head and replied, "This is not necessarily, generally only in the brains of certain high-level beasts do they have energy crystals. ”

"High-level beasts, how to distinguish them, how many are they?" Yi Xingchen asked curiously.

Alan replied in embarrassment: "It is said that the combat profession above the fifth level can distinguish between different levels of beasts according to personal induction, I am only a third-level swordsman, but the minister can teach His Majesty the method of condensing sword qi with the help of energy crystals mentioned in the "Intermediate Swordsmanship". ”

"Okay, you teach me how to condense sword qi. However, the matter of hunting beast energy crystals, put aside for the time being, the future is long, there is no need to rush for a while, the construction of Xinghua City is the most important thing in our country at present. Yi Xingchen responded.

Yi Xingchen didn't want Alan to take the guards with him and risk his life to go out of the city to hunt.
