Chapter 1415: No Resources
Jia Zhengjin doesn't actually need fresh water, because there is a lot of it in the virtual backpack.
In addition, there is a bug of unlimited water, and you can use it unlimited with a bottle of water, so you don't have to worry about it at all.
However, he was more concerned about the fact that the Principality of Tyros was not going to build a cement road, which would affect his planning.
Therefore, he simply took out some bread-type dry food and exchanged a jar of water with Uncle Beard.
While the three wives were filling the jugs with water, he crouched down in front of the bearded man, who was in a good mood because he had received three days' rations, and asked, "Why do you know that the Duchy of Tyros is not going to build concrete roads?"
"Of course, you don't know each other, so I don't need to deceive you!" replied the bearded uncle, "Our Duchy of Tyroth is different from other imperial systems, and all the people will be notified of any major event. This order from the city lord of the Holy Dragon City is a big deal. Although we are reluctant to disobey the Godslayer, the country is in a difficult situation and cannot afford the huge cost of building a concrete road. And even if the road is repaired, it will be of little use to our principality of Tyros. His Majesty the King has informed the whole territory that he is going to send an emissary to the Holy Dragon City to inform us of the situation in detail, and to request that the Duchy of Tyros be removed from the plan. ”
"So?" Jia Zhengjin frowned slightly, which made him a little headache, after all, his plan didn't want any discounts, "Is it true that your Principality of Tairuos can't pay for a mere cement road?"
"You have also seen it, guest," the bearded uncle pointed around helplessly, "the country is in this situation, everyone is barely surviving, where can they withstand the toss? In the previous war with the Sea Clan, and then in the war with the Dark Dragon, our country contributed all the remaining resources, and also lost a large number of excellent soldiers. I think that Lord God Slayer, at least for this reason, should be able to understand our difficulties and not force us. ”
"Don't you really have any resources available in your country? No matter what kind of resources they are, I think that as long as they can be developed, they must be able to be exchanged for funds......
"If we really have resources, how can we be in the current situation?" the bearded uncle shrugged helplessly, "We ourselves don't want to find any useful resources?" But the government has already sent countless personnel to survey all the land, even if there are even a little resources. The problem is that we really can't find resources in the country. In other words, the entire continent now knows that our Principality of Tyros is the most barren land!"
"Could it be that your country's top brass deliberately concealed information about certain resources and directly carried out secret mining?" Jia Zhengjin asked curiously.
"Come on!" replied the bearded uncle, shaking his head, "if that were to happen, we would all laugh out loud." ”
Jia Zhengjin wanted to ask again, but a team of merchants came over to buy fresh water from Uncle Beard.
It's not good to bother, so I can only step aside first.
"Shall we continue on our way?" Tina asked softly as she took Perrin and Christina with the water.
"Don't worry, I want to talk to the king of the Duchy of Tyros, and I must find a way to get them to build the concrete road!"
"But they can't afford to pay," Tina said softly, "and it seems that the people's lives are difficult, and they have contributed to the war between the Sea Clan and the Dark Dragons before, so they can't be forced unreasonably, right?"
"Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Jia Zhengjin looked at her helplessly, "Of course I know that they are very difficult, but this road construction must not miss a place, it will affect my planning." Isn't it just that there is no money and no resources? Why don't we just find a way to let them make money? I can spend the funds for road construction first, and let them make money and then pay me back!"
"Debt?" said Tina, "but how do they make money?
"There are no resources, but it has enough land, and there are people in a country, isn't it?" Jia Zhengjin thought carefully, "In fact, land and population are also a kind of resources!"
"Do you want them to sell their land or people to us?" said Tina, taken aback.
"What do you want?" Jia Zhengjin was speechless, "What do I want their land and people for?"
"Isn't that what you just said?" Tina was curious, "Lynn and Chris, do you say that?"
"Uh-huh!" Perrin, Christina, and even Epar and Vanessa all nodded their heads one after another, their eyes focused on Jia Zhengjin.
"I mean, the territory of the Principality of Tyros and the population it has are also available resources, but it doesn't mean that they have to be bought and sold!" Jia Zhengjin could only explain, "Actually, what I want to talk about is how to use this desolate land and their ...... Eh~ Idle people create resources!"
"I don't understand!" the girls all shook their heads.
"I have a preliminary idea that can solve the problem of concrete roads, but also solve the situation of the Principality of Tyros that lacks resources and can only barely survive. Jia Zhengjin looked at the bearded uncle, "So we still have to meet their king first." ”
"I don't know what you're trying to do, but you're certainly not going to hurt them. Tina said with a smile.
"Of course!"
The bearded uncle over there finished his business with the caravan, sold the remaining cans of water, and stood up directly to pack up the empty cans and prepare to leave.
When Jia Zhengjin saw it, he hurriedly went over to stop him: "Wait!"
"The guest hasn't left yet?" asked the bearded uncle, puzzled, "Do you still want water?" I've sold out today, and I'll wait until tomorrow to get it. Why don't you ask someone else to buy it first?"
"I'm not looking to buy water!" Jia Zhengjin shook his head, "I just wanted to ask you for a favor." ”
"Help?" the bearded uncle looked at him suspiciously, "What help?"
"Didn't you just say that this city of Faling is the capital of the Principality of Tyros, and the king must be in this city, right?"
"Of course!" the bearded uncle pouted, then nodded.
"Can you show me the way and tell me where the king lives? Jia Zhengjin said seriously, "It's a very important thing!"
"But even in a place like our Principality of Tyros, the king is not something outsiders want to see. The bearded uncle scratched his head in embarrassment, "Especially since you guys look weird in your outfits, and your faces don't show ......"
"If you take me to the king, I will give you three more days...... No, five days of food!" Jia Zhengjin said directly, "Don't worry, I don't have any malicious intentions, I just want to ask some questions in person." ”
"Well?" said the bearded uncle, who bowed his head in deep thought, and nodded after a long moment, "as long as you swear to the gods that you will never endanger the king, then I will take you there!"
