Chapter 549: The Coming World Change
After getting a high bounty from that family from the underground alliance, Zhao Xu suddenly became interested in the business of "bounty hunter".
However, he prefers not to take a bounty on "money", but more inclined to materials, land, magic books, and mysterious items.
Anyway, he can perform the identification technique at any time, and there is nothing to hide from any treasure.
Especially when he has the "teleportation technique", the whole Arthur has no distance limit for him.
As for ordinary five-ring mages, at level 9, there are only one or two five-ring spell slots, and they use teleportation to reach a certain destination, and sometimes they have to wait until the spell slot is restored the next day before they can rush back.
Zhao Xu, who can have potential points for battery life, does not have this problem at all.
Even now, with the cooperation of the high-level arbitrary gate and teleportation, he uses enough confidence to kill the peripheral forces of most of Arthur's forces.
Teleportation ranges from "very familiar", "very well studied", "occasionally seen", "once seen" to "not found here" depending on the familiarity of the destination.
The corresponding "correct target", "wrong target", "similar area", and "killed" are also probable.
Like Zhao Xu now, he basically uses the "exploration" spell of the four rings first, and first retrieves the details of the destination.
In this way, he will be deemed to have studied the destination, and enter the category of "extremely researched" on the spot, so that the probability of the sub-target being correct is already about 94%, and the death is only 1%.
Therefore, Zhao Xu was able to shuttle more than a dozen places in a lightning way within an hour.
The power of the spell was also amplified in his hands, without limits.
It can even be said that the current Zhao Xu is not so much like Arthur's traditional mage, but a superpower who can do whatever he wants.
Originally, he was still in the town hall meeting, but he may receive a trigger message from a certain enchantment, and teleport away in an instant.
Then, in less than half a minute, I came back from a set of work and continued the meeting just now, faster than just going to the bathroom.
No one knew that he had crossed thousands of miles in an instant.
And in the following period of time, Zhao Xu also silently conveyed power like his friends in his previous life, including several attribute books, which he also distributed.
Some "magic equipment" that doesn't seem too excessive now, Zhao Xu also uses the form of tasks to achieve.
Especially as the completion time of the "Falling Star Town Mage Association" is approaching, everyone in the town seems to feel a solemn atmosphere.
In the vicinity of the town's mines, a huge warehouse was inexplicably rebuilt to store supplies, and players and guards were hired to patrol 24 hours a day.
Including the many forces in the entire northern land, the assets under Zhao Xu's name are also increasing, and all kinds of land and materials have been collected under his name.
It even caused food prices to fluctuate throughout the Northland on the spot.
Later, even the temple of the goddess of harvest was alarmed to investigate, and it was only by the intervention of the temple of the goddess of magic that it calmed down.
This also drove Zhao Xu to expand the scope of dispatching food, and the treasure treasury funds he had obtained from the six sisters before were slowly depleted.
At this time, Zhao Xu was still silently accumulating everything.
Even on the forum, players in the Northland have raised questions more than once, wondering if there are forces that are secretly accumulating strength and preparing for war recently.
The powerful business condensed by several major players such as "Shining Gold Coins", "Glorious North", and "United Business Alliance" also slowly approached in, trying to find out Zhao Xu's intentions and trade with him.
At this time, Zhao Xu was in the reception room, entertaining several high-level players who were shining with gold coins, and urging them to negotiate a grain deal.
"Mr. Midsummer." The woman at the head gently picked up the carved ceramic teacup, took a sip and said, "You have to believe in the strength of our shining gold coins." ”
"As long as we wait until this autumn's harvest, we can use capital manipulation to use a stable and low price, like the price you offer under the black market mark."
This woman is one of the key giants of the shining gold coins, "Angel", the other party is a rich woman, but the first step in the game is not to use the black market trade Arthur's gold coins for equipment purchases, but into the ship commodity trade, even starting from a sampan, in just six months, relying on the player's tandem and the earth's more advanced business model, it has expanded into a major business alliance giant in the entire Northland.
However, Zhao Xu knew that the Chamber of Commerce of the Asshuri players was able to make the trip, and it was somewhat dependent on the characteristics of the "players" who could use the resurrection stone to maintain it.
The giants of these chambers of commerce are basically level 1 players, and after 20 minutes of being assassinated, they can register a small account to come in and inherit the inheritance.
And the players under the Chamber of Commerce are even more afraid of death. The oppression is excessive, and it will even attract the hatred of passers-by and volunteer to join the counterattack.
Therefore, the major forces in the Northland suddenly found that the usual means of dealing with ordinary chambers of commerce had lost their effect, especially the players would not be controlled by spiritual spells.
This is also the reason why these players will be able to develop rapidly and will not be encroached upon by shares.
Or, these chambers of commerce are also aware of the barriers above, so they have used the means of Internet finance on the earth to rapidly expand their scale.
Now it seems that the natural risk is not small, and even once this expansion stops, the follow-up may not keep up, and the entire chamber of commerce may fall apart on the spot.
However, Zhao Xu also knew that these chambers of commerce, no matter how they jumped, in fact, after crossing over, they were basically eaten up by the major forces in the north.
Because all players have become living Arthurs, they will die the same and will never be able to buy a number again, and naturally the means that the players will rely on have also become a bubble under the scorching sun.
"Miss Angel, my request is very simple, that is, to provide this batch of food before the summer, you can't do it, I will naturally look for others."
Zhao Xu said euphemistically.
If the delivery is delayed until after the crossing, the price of grain in the Northland will skyrocket, and whether the Shining Gold Coin exists or not is another matter, and the contract made now has no meaning at all.
"But Mr. Midsummer, you also have to understand us, you must know that in the past few months, a large amount of grain has been withdrawn from the market, and even the major forces have been forced to open their granaries to stabilize grain prices."
"If we are not confident that we can open up the upper echelons of the forces, otherwise we dare not guarantee you, and the autumn harvest will be able to deliver a certain amount of grain." Player Angel said, at this time, he was also followed by two people who looked like secretaries, who were looking down to sort out the stack of parchment in front of him, and took it out at any time and handed it to Angel, the head of this negotiation.
The other party also brought four retinues to follow outside, two of them are the best among the current players, and the other two Arthur locals, Zhao Xu had also seen each other in his previous life, and they were quite famous adventurers, and they were obviously employed by this negotiation after level 10.
On Zhao Xu's side, he only brought Zheng Xinyun to assist him. Recently, in addition to continuing her job as a pastor, Zheng Xinyun has taken on the role of Zhao Xu's personal secretary, and by the way, she enjoys the salary that Zhao Xu gives her every month.
As for the conversation between the two sides, there is an "automatic shorthand quill pen" on the side that is constantly writing memos.
During this period, several people who were shining gold coins couldn't help but sweep the pen and checked it several times.
"Ms. Angel, now you want me to deliver about half of the value of the equivalent food to you as a bargain, and it is not reasonable to delay it until August or September."
Zhao Xu pointed out.
I have to say that the "empty glove white wolf", relying on the model of providing channels to match the transaction between the two parties, did bring a lot of opportunities at the beginning, and it is also the reason why these players can develop rapidly.
However, in front of them at this moment is Zhao Xu, who has stronger bargaining power.
"Mr. Midsummer, according to my information, this batch of magic weapons and magic armor in your hands actually has no plans to be put into use before July, because the town's armament and defense equipment have already been registered in the warehouse, so now hand it over to us, and you won't have any losses."
"We can even give you an additional 5% discount on the price of your food."
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Xu also realized that the players under his hands must have internal ghosts, so he revealed all the news and let the other party find the hole cards.
"No need."
Suddenly, Zhao Xu stood up.
"I have only one word for you, as long as the delivery can be completed when the summer comes, I will eat as much as you have according to the current price of food."
"As for the rest of the promises, let's not talk about them." After speaking, Zhao Xu was about to turn around and leave.
"What the hell, Mr. Midsummer, do you have to complete these settlements by July?"
The player Angel couldn't help but stand up at this time, she was originally gentle and generous, but she also lost her posture for the first time, "No, Mr. Midsummer, you received the news, the orc empire next door can cross the ice field mountain range to attack, right?" ”
"It's June now, and it's less than a month away."
Saying that, Angel shook her head in disbelief.
"Nope."
Suddenly, Zhao Xu's tone paused, and he looked at the other party with a gentle expression.
"This is a bigger change of the times that involves you and me."
