It wasn't until Lao Jiu was promoted to level seventy that he really realized that it was difficult to rise to the level. This also made him understand that his previous estimate was completely wrong. Of course, there are resources in the game, but the problem is that you have to be able to get them.

Take the seventh-order demonic beasts as an example, although the seventh-order demonic beasts in the territory of the Easy Empire are enough for the old nine to rise to the eightieth level, the problem is that the seventh-order demonic beasts are not so easy to kill, they will not fight with you, and they will run away.

As for those who can be restrained by Lao Jiu, there are very few, which has led to a sudden decline in Lao Jiu's upgrade speed, and in a month, he has barely been promoted by one level, and this is still the case that no one is competing with him for resources at present.

If as time goes by, Lao Jiu has a few more competitors, it is estimated that he will be promoted to level eighty, and it will be the year of the monkey. However, what makes Lao Jiu happy is that after level seventy, every level of promotion has a hidden attribute, that is, the suppression of the level, which has a decisive effect on players who are also level seventy.

For Lao Jiu for the time being, it is to seize the time to upgrade, and there is plenty of time to transport grain and grass, so Lao Jiu can spare a lot of time to upgrade. In addition, he also found time to help Mi Baoer plan and plan logistics.

The reason why Lao Jiu wants Mi Baoer to manage logistics is mainly because Mi Baoer knows more, and Mi Baoer has always managed the military reserve materials behind her back, and Er Fat only knows a rough idea.

Because there are some things, after all, the fewer people who know, the better, just like an underground military factory, and a grain reserve warehouse on the Ascending Peak. said that Mi Baoer was in charge, but in fact, Erpang still managed some other aspects of logistics, after all, Mi Baoer couldn't be busy alone.

And Erfat is much more relaxed, she is mainly responsible for transportation, and there are not many roads built today, and there are also a number of carriage shops established everywhere, so she is still relatively relaxed.

During this time, in addition to being promoted and helping Mi Baoer, Lao Jiu also specially set up a Xiaoyao Gate, as long as it is a population gathering place in the Xiaoyao Basin, Lao Jiu will establish a branch, just like an ancient yamen and a modern police station.

The mission of Xiaoyaomen is to maintain local law and order, strictly prohibit brawls and PK in public places, and prevent players from burning, killing, looting, and engaging in some sabotage. Of course, the existence of the Easy Gate is at most a deterrent.

In order to allow players to take into account the existence of the Easy Empire before doing anything that is detrimental to the interests of the Empire. After all, sometimes face is still very important, if you give me face, then everything is easy to say, if you don't give me face, then I'm embarrassed, Lao Jiu will not be polite.

The existence of the Easy Gate is mainly divided into two parts. Half of them are in charge of NPV, who are stationed in the place for a long time, and the other half is made up of players, all of whom are above level 40 or even level 50.

These are all recruited by Lao Jiu Er Hei, all of whom have been backed up in reality, recruited through Tianwaitian Group, and enjoy the treatment of civil servants. Players from level 40 to level 50 alone have recruited 30,000, and only 1,000 players above level 50.

The treatment of level forty to fifty is 100 gold coins to five hundred gold coins a year, and above fifty years, the son is more than 1,000 gold coins every year. For such a good thing, of course, players want to rush to do it.

Because there are only two criteria for Lao Jiu to recruit people, the first is strength, and the second is character. Putting aside the most important cultural level in reality, this gives countless people the coveted employment opportunity, as long as they are promoted to level 50, it is an annual salary of one million.

This is a good errand for countless poor families, so there are many people who participate in the recruitment, but it is a pity that Lao Jiu needs limited personnel, after all, the current Xiaoyao Basin is so big, there are 30,000 and 40 level players, plus 1,500 level players, and NPC personnel, which is enough for the entire Xiaoyao Basin to be distributed.

At present, there are only about three hundred players and NPC gathering places in the Xiaoyao Basin, and each place is allocated a hundred players above level forty, three to four players at level fifty, plus two hundred NPC soldiers, which is enough to manage a gathering place.

With the passage of time, the internal construction of the Imperial City has been basically completed, and now the city wall is still in full swing, and the slow progress of the project is mainly due to the slow supply of lime, cement, and steel.

According to the progress of the project, it will take at least two months for the imperial city to be completed, but this time is the time to set off an upgrade boom in the wilderness. Today's major legions have completed their training, and their personnel have been assigned to their positions.

The next task is to continuously improve their own strength while clearing the wasteland. Through the teleportation array of the White Tiger Plain, the five major legions of Northeast, Northwest, Bloodthirsty, Killing, and Demon have already hit the road one after another, starting their journey.

The Imperial City Janissaries also entered the Imperial City, and the God of War Legion and the Iron Blood Legion were also stationed in the Xiaoyao Basin. The Night Legion, on the other hand, scattered and infiltrated the entire Empire, hiding in the shadows, waiting to carry out special missions.

Lao Jiu once again purchased 200,000 soldiers and invested them in training on the White Tiger Plain, as a reserve army in the future, as a reserve for the soldiers who died in the future, so that each team could maintain a complete establishment.

With more than a month of expansion investment, the underground military factory has been rebuilt several times, and the manufacturing speed of Mingguang armor has finally increased again, mainly because of the change of materials. After a month of testing, the alloy ore under the extinct volcano can finally be used to build the Mingguang Armor.

After many research and changes, the new Mingguang armor is not only stronger than before, but even the weight has been reduced by more than half, which is very important for soldiers, especially the Qilin armor created, which can greatly reduce the weight of the Qilin horse.

This strengthens the combat capabilities of the soldiers from the side, as well as the durability of the Kirin Horse. After expansion and improvement, the daily production of Mingguang armor has reached almost 10,000 pieces, which is an epoch-making improvement.

To put it bluntly, what Lao Jiu is most concerned about at present is the gold and copper veins under Kunpeng's lair, the gold and copper veins in Dream City have long been mined, and now they are all used to build equipment, only this vein is still left, all of which have been stored by Lao Jiu.

However, this vein can also be said to be the largest vein that Lao Jiu has ever heard, and even the largest vein currently discovered by the Huaxia Empire cannot be compared with this vein, you must know that the gold and copper ore mined by this vein can already be equal to the total amount mined in Dream City.

This is just the corner of this vein, if you want to mine the entire vein, it is estimated that it will take a few years, this vein can be so huge, Lao Jiu estimates that there is an inextricable connection with the Kunpeng living on the vein.

According to the judgment of the ore reader, this vein is likely to contain a large number of copper ore veins, if there is really a copper ore, it means that this ore vein has a mineral core, that is colored copper, the real god mine, is a god that can create storage space, that is what Lao Jiu is really looking forward to.

After half a month of relaxation, with the maturity of the first batch of winter crops, Lao Jiu began to get busy again, because everything in the Xiaoyao Empire only started at the beginning of the year, so this year's first batch of crops, Lao Jiu needs to be imported from the Chinese Empire.

The grain in the game can be harvested twice a year, mainly divided into winter crops, and spring crops, winter is generally barley, wheat, and some beans, etc., and in the south where the climate is relatively warm, some vegetables are also grown.

Lao Jiu is outside Dream City, and the fertile land he cultivates is mainly for growing rice, and it can only be harvested once a year. So this time, he mainly focused on the south of the Chinese Empire, and in these places, there were acquisition points set up by Erfat before.

Therefore, when the crops in the south were harvested, Mi Baoer was directly stationed in the south of the Chinese Empire and began to buy grain and grass on a large scale. And Lao Jiu is responsible for transporting, after all, the space artifact on his body can save a very high teleportation fee.

This merit alone is not comparable to that of other forces. The main items purchased by Mibel are barley, wheat, vegetables and legumes. Lao Jiu is responsible for transporting these things back to the Xiaoyao Basin, and after processing, they are transported to various places.

Barley and beans were processed into feed by Lao Jiu and then transported to Qilin Pass. Today's Ma Army has set up a Qilin Legion, with a complete establishment of only 10,000, and there are more than 5,000 remaining Qilin horses, all of which have been raised in captivity.

To this end, Lao Jiu discussed with Ma Jun and others, and also established a unicorn horse breeding base in the prairie to ensure the supply of subsequent unicorn horses, and the breeding base of unicorn horses was also listed as a military forbidden land.

Flour processed from wheat, as well as various vegetables, were also sent to various fortresses by Lao Jiu to ensure the living needs of the warriors.

For the first batch of grain since the beginning of spring, Lao Jiu also made a bloody investment, and directly purchased it at a high price, almost monopolizing the entire southern market of China, and those who can compete with Lao Jiu for business are the Chinese Empire.

In order to hoard enough grain and grass, Lao Jiu spent 50 million gold coins on the first batch of grain in the spring alone, and a large amount of grain and grass was transported to the Xiaoyao Basin for storage, and then distributed to various military garrisons, it seems that there are still many more, but in fact, it is only enough for the imperial army to eat for three months.

This is just for the troops, if you count the personnel inside the Xiaoyao Basin, it will only be two months of grain and grass, which is why Lao Jiu has been collecting grain and hoarding it, because once the war starts, it is almost impossible to buy grain again.

However, since the beginning of the game, Lao Jiu has been hoarding grain and grass, and now the grain in the Xiaoyao Basin can almost guarantee the entire empire, a year's worth of food, and if there is a war, there is no need to worry about the shortage of grain and grass.
