"How's it going?" When they saw us coming back safely, they all surrounded us.

"It's not bad, the pig monster has promised to lease me 100,000 heads of that thing, but as a commission, it will ask me to pay 400 million gold coins." I said with a smile and quietly doubled the price of the rent.

"400 million!" Lan Zhan said a little exaggeratedly, but Liu Zi's face turned pale for a while, and his body was a little shaky.

"The price that the pig monster gave me is already very favorable, if it is someone else, I have to pay at least 600 million." I said as if I was taking advantage of it.

"400 million is 400 million, we have to get this money back when we capture Jiangshan City." Lan Zhan said.

"Long, I'll go back to Tiegu first, Sister Hua and the others said that our craftsmen have already made catapults, I have to go back and give those craftsmen some encouragement, and by the way, let them increase their efforts and build more things." Liu Zi said goodbye to me.

"Encouragement alone is not enough." I shook my head and said to Liu Zi, and at the same time took out a few pieces of equipment from my storage space, these are some armor and other equipment, and the pig monster only needs weapons, so I have a lot of armor down. "The people who follow me, I can't let them be rewarded for their merits, these are some of the better silver-level equipment, you take them and send them to those who have merit."

Liu Zi took all these things, then thought for a moment and asked, "Dragon, are there any other equipment?" ”

"Sister Liu, it's not enough! After we captured Iron Valley, didn't all those remaining weapons be kept by you, you are our logistics captain, we are looking for equipment, we have to ask you for it? Why did you ask me instead? I jokingly said.

"No, Dragon, most of the equipment I keep is whiteboard equipment, and there are almost no attributes, how can I give these things to others." Liu Zi said.

"I have some of them, but it's all on Ya'er, we haven't been able to find time to clean it up, and Ya'er can't get the gear out one by one. If you really need it, then you can go to the first store in the world and ask for it, I will tell them, what you need at that time, just take it. I said.

Liu Zi was about to leave, I stopped her, and then said to Lan Zhan and them: "Let's also go to Tiegu to take a look, this Jiangshan City, those monsters are estimated to be unable to attack in a day or two." ”

"Okay, let's go see what siege weapons they've made for us." Lan Zhan happily walked along.

"Let's dispose of our loot before we go to Iron Valley." I said to the Blues.

"Okay, then let's go to Striker City first." Lan Zhan said indifferently.

Leaving Xunlong and the Nameless Brother here to supervise the battle, I, Lan Zhan and Liu Zi, came to Striker City. We haven't been here for a long time, and we found that Striker City is much bigger than before, and our first store in the world has become a bustling place in Striker City.

Due to the reason why we are going to attack Jiangshan City, the entire Forward City is relatively deserted, but there are still many players who go in and out of the world's first store. Lan Zhan and I stood in front of the world's first store, looking at our store proudly, but Lan Zhan said to me a little obediently: "Long, I'm not wrong, if I buy this yard, it will appreciate quickly, if we sell our big yard now, the price will be more than enough." ”

Lan Zhan is not wrong, now there are few people who don't know the signboard of the world's first store in the forward city, and many of them have come to the forward city to do business, which has also led to the prosperity of the forward city, the front city has prospered, and the land price will naturally rise, and we are the first in the world, the land has of course risen sharply.

"Long, I think we should turn this wall into a store, and we can keep it for ourselves or rent it out to others, so that our profits will be much greater." Liu Zi said.

"No way!" I said at the same time as the Blue War.

Liu Zi looked at us suspiciously, she seemed to be a little incomprehensible, don't we want to make more money?

"Sister Liu, it's no problem for us to open one or two more, but if this wall is transformed into a store, it is not necessary, the purpose of our doing this is to bring out the uniqueness of the world's first, if most of the shops are around it, maybe it can be more prosperous, but it has also lost its most unique and noble side, and has become a popular thing." I explained.

"Not only that, Sister Liuye, in order to maintain our domineering spirit as the number one in the world, we will take the road of elite soldiers in the future. The first things we sell in the world are all fine or very rare things, and we make it possible for others to buy things from us that are not available anywhere else. Of course, in order to take care of the average player, we can open a store next to the first in the world, specializing in selling some cheaper or cheaper things, I have already thought of the name, the general price of the supermarket-like store we can call it the second in the world, and the cheap price of the store that sells goods, we call it the third in the world. "Lan Zhan immediately put forward his development strategy of being the first in the world.

"Good idea, let's go! What are we waiting for, such a good idea, to implement it later, it is our loss, we will go and register them immediately. I said quickly.

We turned around, and just as we were about to leave, suddenly a man ran in front of us, who seemed to be a thief, and he ran straight towards us. Behind the thief, there were five big men chasing the thief, and they shouted, "Catch the thief!" The shameful thief stole one of our bronze gauntlets. ”

In the game Taimeng, thieves are not a specialized profession, and anyone who learns the art of stealing can steal from others. It's just that this thief, in this game, is not easy to do, first of all, the system's punishment for stealing is very heavy.

Anyone, regardless of whether it is against a player or a Warcraft, if they use Stealing Technique, whether it is successful or not, within an hour, as long as they are caught or killed, then the player who uses Stealing Technique will immediately be punished with more than 300 gold coins. Among them, the higher the level of stealing, the more severe the punishment.

At the same time, the system also encourages players to catch players who use stealing, and any player who catches them within the specified time will be rewarded with a minimum of 100 gold, and similarly, the higher the theft used by the person caught, the higher the reward.

Finally, the success rate of stealing is very low, and if you don't reach level 6, you will basically not succeed. All kinds of restrictions make it impossible for the profession of thieves to develop.

Catching the thief will be rewarded, but no one on the street stepped forward to catch the thief, but they intentionally or unintentionally blocked the person chasing the thief behind, this is really strange, the people in this forward city, are all the thieves' relatives? Seeing such a scene, I can't help but feel a little incredible.

"Taishan Five Tigers, what I stole is you, who let you only care about leveling, and you didn't take the matter of dealing with the Jiangshan League to heart at all. This equipment is for you to use, it is too disappointing to it, I better help it find a better owner! The thief said.

"Why are you specifically dealing with us, there are too many people who don't participate in the siege war against the Jiangshan Alliance, why don't you deal with them, and besides, what does this Jiangshan Alliance have to do with us, it is we who shed blood and sacrifice, and the benefits are all taken up by the people above." Among the few people chasing after him, the one who chased the most hurriedly said.

"You still have a point! But you can't bluff me, who doesn't know that the eye-gouging demon has already told everyone that after the capture of Jiangshan City, all the loot will be revealed. Moreover, with so many of us watching, can he rely on the eye-gouging demon? The thief said.

"You just believe him?" The man gasped a little after him and said.

"What if you don't believe it? As long as we defeat the country, what do you do with other things, you people are smarter than others, but you don't know that you are actually a person who doesn't know the general situation. Don't talk about it, don't want to come back with this bronze gauntlet. "The thief has already passed us and run into the first shop in the world.

Soon the thief turned back to the people who were chasing him and said, "I have already consigned this thing, if you still want to come back, go and buy it, the price is not very expensive, only 1500 gold coins, you should attack the Jiangshan Alliance for us." Make a contribution. You don't have to worry about the Eye Gouging Demon, you should still be trustworthy about my little loach, I will completely exchange the 1500 gold coins for raw materials, and send them to Iron Valley to make siege weapons for those craftsmen. ”

"Hmph, we're out of luck." The men snorted coldly and bought the bronze gauntlet.

"On behalf of the majority of players who have been squeezed by the Jiangshan Alliance, I would like to thank you for contributing your strength to the attack on Jiangshan City!" The thief, who called himself Little Loach, smiled and said goodbye to the departing players.

The little loach finished speaking, and then his eyes quickly swept around us, and we hurriedly said, "We are activists against the Jiangshan League, and we just came from there. ”

"You're an eye-gouging demon. And you're the god of fire. The thief looked at us carefully and shouted at us in great surprise.

The thief's voice made all the players around us move closer to us, and they all wanted to see the appearance of the general alliance leader who resisted the Jiangshan Alliance.

"Run!" I pulled Liu Zi and hurriedly ran into the first store in the world, and at the same time said to the senior NPC guards standing at the door: "Stop them." ”

The high-ranking guards stopped everyone, and we entered the world's number one shop.

"Master." The world's No. 1 accountant, auctioneer and fellow saw us come in and asked us together.

"Accountant, tell us about the store." I said to the world's No. 1 accountant that day.

"Back to the master, our first store in the world, from its opening to the present, has a total income of 248,627,360 gold coins, of which our normal equipment sales are 238,527,960 gold coins, and the consignment fee is 1,099,400 gold coins." The world's No. 1 accountant said.

"Huh! Dragons, have they all been leveled up? It's incredible, how can their level rise so quickly? Lan Zhan checked their attributes and said in surprise.

"Not bad! Those accountants and guys have all been promoted to the 3rd level, and the auctioneer has been promoted to the 5th level. Each of them has risen by 2 steps? Lan Zhan, this way of throwing off the shopkeeper is really good, if we put too many restrictions on them, how can they rise so fast? I also hurriedly checked the ranks of those NPCs, and after reading them, I also made the same fuss as Lan Zhan.

As usual, we said a few words of encouragement to them, took the two fellows with us, and then we walked through the back door of the shop into the house we bought.

In the underground hall, Ya'er and we were once again overwhelmed by the equipment that had been moved by the great momentum. Although we were fully mentally prepared this time, we were even more embarrassed this time than the first time, and several of us, almost crushed under the heavy ore, could not get up, and we were almost crushed to death by the ore. Yaer's storage space is big, but it's not good.

Leaving the two NPC guys with bitter faces and asking them to pack them up in different categories, we made our way up to a large room, where we put our precious weapons, all of which were silver-tiered. Here, I said to Liu Zi: "Sister Liu, you can find a favorite equipment to change into." ”

Liu Zi shook his head and said, "Dragon, I'm by your side, there will be no danger, these things, if they are sold, are they worth a lot of money?" ”

"Sister Liu, why are you all so polite? Unlike some people, if you have silver equipment, you will never wear bronze, and if you have gold, you will not look at silver. I said with a sigh.

"Boy, who are you talking about? Hehe, you envy me for being a warrior, I can equip any class of equipment, right? Lan Zhan said with a glaring eye at me.

"Looks like I'm a warrior too! Moreover, my strength is stronger than that of you, a magician in the skin of a warrior! Give me the gold gear you wear. "I'm going to peel the blue battle off the golden gear.

"Sister Willow won't like this style of armor." Of course, Lan Zhan knew my intention to strip his equipment, and seeing that I still didn't stop, Lan Zhan hurriedly begged Liu Zi and said, "Sister Liu Ye, you can quickly find a set of silver-level equipment to wear." Oops, Sister Liu, I'm begging you. ”

Liu Zi saw the two of us fighting, she smiled slightly, and then picked out a set of silver-level hunter equipment and put it on. Seeing that Liu Zi had put on the equipment, Lan Zhan shouted at me: "Sister Liu has found a more suitable equipment for her, Long, don't you want to let go?" You guy, you are really inhumane to the opposite sex, and I despise you when you see your friends. ”

"Sister Liu, I have modified the authority of this house, and in the future, you will have the same authority as us, you can enter and exit this house freely, and you can also take any piece of equipment in this house casually. Sister Liu, you can take a few more sets of silver-level equipment, so you can give them to Sister Hua. I let go of Lan Zhan and said to Liu Zi.

Liu Zi heard this, listened to my advice, and took away a lot of equipment, and of course I can't go out empty-handed, I am the boss of so many people, and I have to be ready to reward my subordinates with good things at all times, and in my space, there is always good equipment. So I stuffed a lot of good things into my spatial wrist chakra. Lan Zhan, this guy, has also been added to the ranks of snatching, but isn't his storage space already full, how can he still put things? Moreover, I haven't seen it, Lan Zhan has a hobby of giving things to others!

We only went out when we robbed the contents of the house.

The next time, we went to where we were last and applied for two stores. Now I have more money, and I buy those NPCs, of course, not as much as I used to, we bought an auctioneer, two accountants, and ten guys. The auctioneer and accountant are the highest level of what can be bought here—level 3. Man, we're still buying the lowest. In addition, we have bought a lot of skilled people, ten of whom have the skill of refining potions, and twenty of them have the skill of forging weapons.

A third-level auctioneer costs 300,000 gold coins, two third-level accountants need 500,000 gold coins, and ten first-level guys need 150,000 gold coins. Skilled people are more expensive than this type of NPC, with 600,000 gold coins for NPCs with Level 3 alchemy skills and 700,000 NPCs with Level 3 weapon casting skills. We want these skilled people to make money for us as soon as possible, so we all buy expensive ones. Together with the cost of opening the store, this trip cost us a total of 21.15 million gold coins.

"Long, we have invested so much, can we recover the cost in the future?" Looking at such a high amount, Liu Zi said with some concern.

"Sister Liu, this is just the first step of our investment, and we will increase such investment in the future. Don't worry about these investments, we will be able to recoup our money. I swore to Liu Zi. I dare say that, as long as I think about what to do with the skills I bought.

I put the ten medicine refiners in the medicine valley of the wolves. The herbs produced there were enough for their daily alchemy. As for those who forge weapons, I will take advantage of the time to send Lao Tie those things he needs, and ask him to help me train them, I think Lao Tie will definitely help me for the sake of those rare ores.

Wait until a year or two later, I will go and get them back, and at that time, their skill level should also reach the 9th level, and they can barely refine medicine and forge equipment for us, which means that there will be a steady stream of wealth created by them, and I will have dozens of old hens who can lay golden eggs.

We opened the third store next to the first store in the world, and then opened the second store in the world far away from them. The reason why we do this is because considering that the scale of the second in the world will be very large, and it will inevitably be noisy to let it be next to the first in the world.

After opening the shop, arranging the guys and the accountant, and leaving the skilled people in the underground hall to help clean things up, we went to Iron Valley together.

Seeing the Iron Valley from afar, we found that the Iron Valley was more prosperous than before. Now Tiegu has completely belonged to the majority of players, and many players who want to develop a deputy position have come here to borrow the sharp weapons and ironworks left by the Jiangshan League. But now, the siege is imminent, and all the blacksmiths and blast furnaces are temporarily requisitioned to make siege weapons. None of the players expressed any dissatisfaction with these, on the contrary, they also invested very hard in this great work, after all, they are not fools, they know that one day when the Jiangshan League exists, this place still belongs to the Jiangshan League, so they will not be able to build weapons here with peace of mind.

"Blue War, this will definitely become a weapon supply place for the entire game in the future." Looking at the busy Iron Valley, I couldn't help but say to Lan Zhan.

"I feel the same way, because of the terrain here, the quality of the metals smelted here will be better than other places, and the weapons forged from them will be better than other places. In line with the principle of proximity, this place will attract a lot of blacksmiths to concentrate here, and this will become the main production place of weapons and equipment in the future, and many players will come here to buy weapons. As it becomes more prosperous, it will also attract many other sub-jobs to develop here. In the future, it will develop infinitely and be very prosperous. "The Blue War is also convinced.

"If I were to choose a place in Jiangshan City and Tiegu, I would definitely choose here, and I don't know how Jiangshan Alliance would go to that place to build their city, and how would this place be stronger than that place. Ay! What a pity! I sighed heavily.

"Dragon, what are you sighing for! Even if the Jiangshan Alliance builds their Jiangshan City here, there is no development here, they occupy this place, those players will not buy their account, and there is no development here at all. Iron Valley ushered in its spring, all because you defeated the Jiangshan Alliance, made this place completely public, so that all players can come here to forge weapons, so that Iron Valley can prosper in the future. Liu Zi said to me with some admiration.

"Sister Liu, Long he is not sighing for Jiangshan League, but sighing for himself, he sees that Tiegu has such good development prospects, but he has no way to benefit from it, so he sighs." Or did the Blues know me and know what was going on in my mind.

"If only we could own the land of Iron Valley." I said with some reluctance.

"If you want the land here, after the fall of the Jiangshan Alliance, can't you just buy it from the system?" Liu Zi said.

"Then the dragon will become the public enemy of all players, and if the dragon buys this place, there will be no development here." Lan Zhan shook his head and said.

"I have a way to get a large piece of land without affecting the development of Iron Valley." Liu Zi was quiet for a long time, and suddenly said.

"What's it!" I asked in unison with Lan Zhan.
