Time passed like flowing water, in the blink of an eye, a month passed, the canonization ceremony of the Ultron Empire officially began, Zhao Hu wore gorgeous brocade clothes and thousands of quasi-nobles who also wore gorgeous brocade robes, and entered a large hall of the Ultron Empire's imperial palace.

In the past month, because of Zhao Hu's reputation as an upstart, it was spread among the upper echelons of the imperial capital and wealthy merchants, so that Zhao Hu was invited by many low-level nobles and wealthy businessmen to participate in many banquets and buy a lot of items at the banquets, including as many as ten civilian warships, three military warships, and more other items.

The canonization ceremony of the Imperial Palace of Ultron was very grand, and the ceremony was very cumbersome, which made Zhao Hu a little impatient, and he endured the unhappiness in his heart, and followed other quasi-nobles to complete the tedious ceremony.

As soon as the tedious ceremony was completed, the chief eunuch began to announce the titles and territories of the quasi-nobles in the main hall, which made the quasi-nobles in the main hall excited.

"Canonize Zhao Hu as the baron of the empire, the territory of Black Rock Island!" As soon as the eunuch's voice fell, many people in the hall looked at Zhao Hu's body with surprised eyes, and their eyes were full of doubt, surprise and pity.

When the canonization of the main hall was over, the nobles in the main hall left the palace in an orderly manner under the leadership of the palace eunuchs. In the process of leaving the palace, all the nobles knew the general situation of Heiyan Island, and knew that Zhao Hu had offended people and was sent to Heiyan Island to suffer, so they stayed away from Zhao Hu and did not want to have any intersection with Zhao Hu.

Gu Wende, who had obtained the general situation of Heiyan Island, changed his face greatly, walked quickly in front of Zhao Hu, and asked in a low voice: "Zhao Hu, who did you offend in the imperial capital to make Heiyan Island your territory?" ”

Hearing Gu Wende's inquiry, Zhao Hu frowned and said, "After I came to the imperial capital, I will be kind to others, and I shouldn't offend anyone!" Also, what happens to Black Rock Island? ”

Hearing Zhao Hu's words, seeing the look of doubt on Zhao Hu's face, Gu Wende secretly sighed, knowing that Zhao Hu had offended people unconsciously, so he said softly: "Black Rock Island is a very huge island, with more than 10 million square kilometers, countless mountains and mountains, sparse plains, a large population, and complex forces, far away from the empire itself, the empire has already given up Black Rock 、、、、、、Island more than a hundred years ago."

With Gu Wende's narration, Zhao Hu's brows furrowed slightly, and a faint cold light flashed in his eyes, and he hated the person who wore small shoes for him.

"Zhao Hu, since you have money, buy more slave guards and warships! In this way, your safety on Black Rock Island is also guaranteed, and even if you can't include the entire Black Rock Island in your rule, you can dominate one side and protect your own safety! After telling Zhao Hu about the general situation of Heiyan Island, Gu Wende sighed and said softly.

"Yes, I know!" Hearing Gu Wende's words, Zhao Hu nodded lightly and said.

Coming out of the palace, Zhao Hu did not immediately return to the Meng Mansion, but walked straight in the direction of the Wang family's slave shop, and with the gold card in his hand and sufficient financial resources, he purchased three thousand fourth-level warriors and ten thousand third-level warriors and a large number of craftsmen in the Wang slave house, almost buying out the third- and fourth-level slaves and craftsmen of the Wang family's slave line in the imperial capital!

However, Zhao Hu did not have any real estate in the emperor, so the slaves purchased by Zhao Hu temporarily lived in the Wang family's slave shop, and the Wang slave company was also willing to do so, applauding Zhao Hu as a big customer.

No matter who Zhao Hu offended, they didn't care about the Wang family's slave shop, they only cared about the money in front of Zhao Hu, Zhao Hu was assigned to Heiyan Island, which was a good thing for the Wang family's slave company, because if Zhao Hu wanted to bring Heiyan Island under his control, he had to buy a large number of slave soldiers.

At the same time, in the process of Zhao Hu's conquest on Heiyan Island, he would capture a large number of soldiers, who could buy them from Zhao Hu's hands at the reserve price, and sell them at a high price after cultivating for a period of time, so that their Wang slave house could earn a lot of money from it.

After the Wang Slave Company purchased a large number of slave soldiers, Zhao Hu did not hesitate or hesitate, and immediately went to the Imperial Capital Battleship Factory, relying on his baron's aristocratic status and sufficient financial resources, he purchased seven military warships, ninety civilian warships and one hundred large transport ships at one time. These warships and transports cost Zhao Hu billions of gold coins in total, once again allowing the wealthy merchants and nobles of the imperial capital to see the heroism of the nouveau riche.

However, even so, the nobles of the imperial capital had no intention of befriending Zhao Hu, and only those businessmen who only had money in their eyes would attach importance to Zhao Hu and Zhao Hu's friendship and want to make a lot of money from it.

After spending billions of gold coins in the imperial capital and receiving the attention of countless people in the imperial capital, Zhao Hu did not continue to shop arrogantly, but in a hidden corner, he used secret methods to change his body shape and appearance, and turned into a majestic and somewhat rough voice The image of a big man walked in the direction of the imperial capital grain store.

According to the news that Zhao Hu learned, Black Rock Island has a large population and is seriously short of food, and many people starve to death every year because of lack of food, so Zhao Hu is ready to buy a large amount of food in the Ultron Empire and go to Black Rock Island.

The Ultron Empire has experienced 10,000 years of peace, accumulated countless grains, the price of grain is very low, and a large amount of grain will be imported to other countries every year, and grain is not valued by the empire at all, Zhao Hu's action to buy grain is very smooth, after paying enough gold coins, the other party took Zhao Hu to bring the warehouse where the grain was stored, and let Zhao Hu find someone to pull it away.

After obtaining the key to the granary from the granary, Zhao Hu entered the granary at ten o'clock at night and transferred all the grain in the granary to the rocky space under the half-dimensional desert.

After the empire purchased enough food for ten million people to eat for ten years, Zhao Hu took all the slaves he purchased from the Wang slave shop and let these slaves board one warship after another.

Thundered! Thundered! Thundered!

With a violent roar, one hundred and ten warships and one hundred transport ships under Zhao Hu's command slowly took off, forming a huge fleet and galloping in the direction of Black Rock Island.

Since Black Rock Island is far away from the mainland of the Ultron Empire, Zhao Hu had to cross most of the Ultron Empire along the way before he could enter the sky above the Endless Sea, and fly to Black Rock Island from the Endless Sea, so as not to cause dissatisfaction and attacks from other countries.

Not long after the huge fleet left the imperial capital, it landed on a grassland thousands of miles away from the imperial capital, Zhao Hu handed over the fleet to the steward to manage, and let Zhao Xin take it to fly in the direction of the city outside the grassland.

Zhao Xin was a sixth-level warrior who could take a short flight, and under Zhao Xin's leadership, Zhao Hu quickly crossed a distance of thousands of miles, landed in a forest outside the imperial city, and walked along the forest path towards the city.

At this time, the sky has already sighed, and most of the city has entered a dark darkness, only a few places are brightly lit and crowded.

After Zhao Hu entered the city, he did not walk towards the brightly lit place, but walked towards the granary shrouded in darkness.

After coming to the location of the granary, Zhao Hu asked Zhao Xin to do it, knocked everyone in the granary unconscious, threw it aside, and went straight to the granaries, and transferred the grain in the granaries to the rock warehouses under the half-dimensional desert for storage.

When Zhao Hu transferred half of the grain in the city granary to the rock warehouse in the half-plane, he stopped doing it, and under the leadership of Zhao Xin, quietly left the granary, flew in the direction of another nearby city, and transferred the general grain in the other city to the rock warehouse in the half-plane.

One night, Zhao Hu, under the leadership of Zhao Xin, entered more than ten cities, and transferred the general grain in more than ten cities to the rock warehouse under the half-dimensional desert.

Because these cities are close to the imperial capital, densely populated, developed in commerce and trade, very wealthy, and have a lot of grain reserves, Zhao Hu transferred half of the grain, which is enough for 100 million people to eat for ten years, which shows how much food is in the Ultron Empire.

If it weren't for the incomparably powerful Ultron Empire, these grains alone could have caused a war between countries! Of course, if it weren't for the strength of the Ultron Empire, the Ultron Empire would not have been able to have 10,000 years of peace, let alone farming with peace of mind, and have so many grain reserves.

In fact, the grain of the Ultron Empire has always been a strong export product, and a large amount of grain is shipped to other countries every year, earning a huge amount of money. It's just that most countries are too far away from the Ultron Empire, and the freight is too expensive, so the grain of the Ultron Empire is generally shipped to some nearby countries, and there is no one to sell it in farther countries because they can't make money.

After all, grain is a bulk cargo, and it is very inconvenient to transport, so the price of grain in countries far away from the Ultron Empire is very expensive, ten times or even dozens or hundreds of times that of the Ultron Empire.

The grain that Zhao Hu stole this time is nothing in the Ultron Empire, and it is not worth much, but once these grains are brought to Heiyan Island by Zhao Hu, they can directly increase in value by a hundred times, and they will play a huge role in Zhao Hu's conquest of various forces on Heiyan Island.
