Chapter 29: The Peak Duel (3)
"We, the Pump Association, together with the Dwarven Kingdom and the Gnome Kingdom, provide weapon support to the following countries, as a member of the human race, our union is closely concerned about the invasion of monsters, and any country in need of magicians can ask us for support. "The Grand Elder of the Wizards' Guild has publicly stated that the Wizards' Guild is forming a legion and supporting 20,000 sets of knight's plate armor, 50,000 sets of warrior armor, 5,000 giant crossbows, and 10,000 trebuchets.
When the Pope of the Empire of Light saw this statement, he flew into a rage: "What are the Magicians Guild going to do? What are those dwarf mules going to do, what are those hateful dwarfs going to do?"
"What are they going to do? Look at the Golden Oak Kingdom, the Bell Kingdom, the Sea Blue Kingdom, what are these?" The Pope roared.
The reason why the Pope is annoyed is because these countries supported by the Wizards' Guild are not on good terms with the Holy See of Light, and those who have good relations are only a few principalities with worrying strength.
"We have limited strength, and we can't raise more equipment in a hurry, so please wait for our second free support...... Bang! Magicians' Union, I, the Holy See of Light, are at odds with you!" the Pope saw the latter words, and the scepter in his hand almost smashed out.
What is it?
This is the split of the red fruit.
"Your Majesty, what should I do, I just received a request for help from more than a dozen kingdoms and principalities. The Chancellor of the Exchequer asked.
The Pope suppressed his anger and said, "Support some ......." ”
"Your Majesty, no, we are in a crisis right now, and the main exits of the underground monsters are in our Empire of Light. Several bishops immediately stood up and stopped.
"So what to do with these guys bowing to the Wizards' Guild, to those who have no Lord?" the Pope was furious.
"Your Majesty, as long as we get through this difficulty, then we still have a chance to get it back, this monster attack is very tyrannical, basically more than three times a day, which has never been done before. ”
"Your Majesty, to tell you the truth, those surrounding kingdoms, principalities, are actually a burden to us, since the Magicians Guild wants, then fulfill them, see how many weapons and equipment the Magicians' Guild has for these principalities, Your Majesty, don't forget, these people also have faith, it is much better than those who have no faith in the Magicians' Guild. ”
When the Pope heard this, he was silent, indeed, as one of the great powers, the influence of the Empire of Light is very great, but the surrounding countries are indeed a burden, and they need the support of the Empire of Light every year.
The Pope was silent, and the others breathed a sigh of relief, the Empire of Light itself was fundamental.
"Then give something symbolically. The Pope spoke.
The Pope's words were quickly implemented, but now the Empire of Light can be said to be in chaos.
The ordinary people in the holy city are to be evacuated, and then ~ a large number of troops are stationed.
As long as there is an exit for monsters, ordinary people need to be evacuated.
This monster attack is not only violent, but also these monsters are extremely tyrannical, rat-headed people, kobolds, lizardmen, mixed with a lot of trolls, ogres, and even some night elves in it.
There are also underground monsters, rock lizards, magic spiders, poisonous scorpions, and so on.
Wave after wave.
The price of weapons has skyrocketed, and the price of ore such as refined iron has also skyrocketed.
The mine owners who bought steam water pumps and steam exhaust fans a few years ago suddenly made a fortune and watched the ore skyrocket every day.
The turnover of the Pump Association jumped all at once, but the price of the Pump Association also increased.
Food prices have also risen.
The price of jerky has also increased.
Food prices have skyrocketed, as have the prices of jerky.
"Do you really want to sell it?" asked Quison in disbelief.
"It doesn't matter if you sell it or not, anyway, the monster attack will take two or three months, so I'll sell it if it's convenient for me. Luo Heng said.
"Monster attack, has something to do with you?" asked Quison.
"No, but if you look at this data, even if there is not a single grain on the side of the Bright Sect, how much grain is there in the entire continent?" Luo Heng said.
Quison took a closer look, then walked out.
Soon Quisen came back and said, "The data is not a big mistake, it was sold, if you hadn't reminded me, our family would still be buying grain." ”
"Stupid!" Luo Heng said angrily.
Luo Heng came to find Kuisen, just to sell some grain, and the monster attack would only take two or three months, and then announce the grain output in various places, so it would be strange if the price of grain did not plummet.
Of course, not many people know this kind of total data.
Kuisen gritted his teeth angrily, but what Luo Heng said was right.
Luo Heng was sometimes speechless about the Magician Guild, although he was not a genius in finance, but with so much data in his hands, it was easy for the whole world to be controlled, and if he didn't look at a forecast in the future, it would cause fluctuations in futures prices?
Luo Heng has a large amount of grain reserves in his hands, and it is definitely unrealistic to sell it by himself, so he can only find someone to cooperate.
The one that can be shipped on a large scale is the Wizards' Guild.
Sure enough, the next day, the Wizards' Guild announced the sale of a large amount of grain, and the price of grain fell significantly.
In the following ten days, the price of food gradually recovered, and the magician's union had already completed the delivery, to be precise, those big businessmen wanted the price of food to continue to rise, so they signed ** purchase agreements one after another, and paid half of the gold coins.
The Wizards' Guild sold off again, and food prices slipped again.
This time, it was only three days, and the grain sold by the Wizards' Guild was bought, and then the price of food went all the way up.
Two months later, the Bright Empire and its affiliated kingdoms found that the offensive of the monsters was much weaker, and the Bright Sect organized a death squad to rush directly into the entrance, going dozens of kilometers deeper, only to find some kobolds and other monsters, and the rest were gone.
And the Wizards' Guild took the opportunity to announce the expected income from this year's grain.
Then Luo Heng announced the purchase of grain, and it was a very low price, and many people waited and watched.
But the nobles who produced the grain looked at the grain in the granary and decided to sell it secretly.
Because the other aristocrats around them had so much grain, agricultural mechanization, and the use of pesticides, although the yield did not increase much, the planting area increased more than five times.
The price of grain plummeted all of a sudden, and the grain of the Magician's Union had not yet been out of the warehouse, and the other party went bankrupt, and the grain was used to offset the account, and those big grain merchants still owed a large amount of gold to the Magician's Union.
And the gold coins that were originally prepaid were the pure profits held by the Wizards' Guild.
This wave of operations stunned everyone on the mainland, and the dozen or so big grain merchants were being collected for debts everywhere.
"Your Majesty, there is an announcement from the barbarians that the date of the line we purchased has arrived, so we need to buy ...... again. On the side of the Bright Empire, the diplomat took out a scroll and spoke.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
