A few days later, it was still Chen Kai in the city lord's mansion in Burkna Town, although Chen Kai still brought back a lot of gold coins from the imperial capital, but with the continuous increase in expenses, the gold coins in his pocket were still decreasing, if it were not for the sale of some militia equipment, and at the same time digging up some waste items in the old city of Hugodi to sell, it is estimated that Chen Kai would find that his money bag was shriveled up to a degree visible to the naked eye, of course, the degree of shriveling is also very fast now
Although Chen Kai did not bring back a large number of vegetables and fruits from the imperial capital, he brought back some special spell seeds, these seeds are not small in number, they add up to more than 10,000, but each one is worth one gold coin to fifty gold coins, Chen Kai alone spent a full 100,000 gold coins, but these seeds infused with natural magic energy can quickly germinate and grow on the ground, and then become edible vegetables or grow into fruit trees in a short time
Of course, vegetables are better, and the absorption of fertilizer is not excessive, but if it is a fruit tree, if there is a lack of fertilizer, then the land that Chen Kai uses to plant these fruit trees will become extremely barren soil after the fruit trees grow, and the fruit trees will then die due to lack of nutrients, so it is actually a small head to buy seeds or something, and the most depressed thing for Chen Kai is the fertilizer he bought, and the three small pockets of fertilizer cost him nearly 200,000 gold coins
Looking at the appearance of the druid profiteer who sold these fertilizers, if it weren't for the territory, Chen Kai would definitely stuff this kind of fertilizer with a strange smell directly into the other party's mouth, of course, provided that he beat the other party, although Chen Kai couldn't see the level of the druid who stayed in the imperial capital, but the aura that exuded from his body was very similar to that of the Altinis boss Cenarius, so that Chen Kai didn't dare to move, even if the blood sea peak carrying the heavy sword was usually very arrogant because of his fighting spirit, But in front of this druid like an old peasant, he didn't even dare to let go of a fart, his mood was as calm as a stone, in this place, let alone bargaining with the other party, it is estimated that after staying for a long time, it will become the same as wood, of course, this kind of natural and peaceful realm can only be mastered by the great druids of the legendary stage, and this small forest that is considered an alien existence in the imperial capital of the Hanster Empire is almost no different from the tropical rainforest
Infiltrated for a long time, the natural rain spell released by the Great Druids has turned this area into a large garden in the entire Xijing, where there is basically no pure stone road, all the roads are made of meadows, and this area has a block of nearly one square kilometer, there are only a few artificial buildings, and most of them are the druids' residences, which is the concentration of the druids in the north of the entire Hansting, and most of the high druids are concentrated here, It's just that now they are all busy working on the Golden Plains, so Chen Kai only saw a few druid apprentices, and some of them are still human players, but Chen Kai didn't invite a single druid to the territory except for buying these seeds and fertilizers, after all, there are actually a lot of druids in the territory, as a place close to the sacred land of nature, Altinis, there are not many druid players active in Hugodi, and even at the peak, one out of ten players is a druid
Of course, the number has decreased a lot now, only half of the past, and half of it is less, but that's it, in the town of Burkner, there are still hundreds of druid players, and there are three aboriginal druids, but neither the player nor the aborigines are natural druids, but claws or birds of prey, if not, why would Chen Kai spend a lot of money to go to the imperial capital to buy seeds and fertilizers, natural druids are farmers in the eyes of players, most of the natural druids in the game are based on healing natural damage, Even if it's healing, it's based on wound healing as its main function, and the healing spells of natural druids are too poor, plus there is basically no attack power, so most players don't like this class, so naturally druids are extremely rare among players
But Chen Kai hopes that there will be more natural druids, even if the druids of other professions can also use natural spells and plant growth, but the effect is definitely not as strong as the natural druids, at least Chen Kai has no way to make those druids make this kind of spell seeds can only spend money to go to the imperial capital to buy, fortunately, the effect of these seeds is very powerful, Especially those fruit trees can be fully grown in another week with the help of sufficient fertilizer, so that Chen Kai's orchard can be opened, even if these fruit trees will only bear fruit immediately when they first grow, and then they will bloom and bear fruit according to the normal natural growth process, but even so, Chen Kai can also get a large number of fresh fruits to relieve the tight supply of fruits and vegetables, and at the same time slightly make up for the expenses of the city lord's mansion
This orchard and vegetable field will become the private property of Chen Kai's city lord's mansion, but with the plantation as the pillar of the city lord's industry, and it is also vegetables and fruits, it is estimated that the entire Hansting is also such a lord as Chen Kai, and other lords, even if they are poor, they will rely on food instead of vegetables and fruits as the basis for the expenses of the city lord's mansion, although fruits and vegetables seem to be more profitable at present, but in any case, fruits and vegetables cannot be compared with patches of grain, of course, even if Chen Kai does not grow grain, as the actual controller of the entire Berkner town territory, The farmers also had to pay a portion of the grain they had grown, and as a contribution, it was not only a tax, but also a conservation fee and rent
Looking at this shrub orchard composed of cherries, apples and other fruits, Chen Kai's heart began to relax slowly, at least in his opinion, he was gradually on the right track, although there was still a huge crushing task on his head, but at present, the entire Burkner Town exuded a strong vitality, at least in Chen Kai's opinion, it was much better than the territory of other players who were currently being ravaged by demonized rats, and I don't know if it was because they were overly harassing the old city of Hugodi, As a result, hundreds of thousands of demonized rats fled en masse and rushed out of the old city of Hugodi, which had become a ruin, and they first directly turned the nearest player's knight territory into ruins, frantically eating something that could be eaten, from food to the player itself, but for now, those demonized rats will not become a problem in Chen Kai's territory, at least before they arrive, more than half of them will be killed
Of course, Chen Kai will not be prepared for nothing, after all, if these demonized rats are really allowed to enter his territory, it is estimated that the residents of his territory will not have to live this year, and they will be starved to death directly, although in Chen Kai's opinion, once the demonized rats enter the city, it is almost impossible to even starve to death, fortunately, the main attack route of those demonized rats is towards the aristocratic alliance in the north, although some of them are coming towards the south, but Chen Kai believes that with the current garrison strength of the city, he should be able to block those demonized rats
But before that, Chen Kai first had to take over his troops, a group of soldiers of the former lord who were still shackled and had panic on their faces, of course, they were definitely much luckier than their former companions, at least they were still alive now, and they were still a human being, instead of becoming those demonized creatures who had no reason and only knew how to devour flesh and blood, in fact, these soldiers of the former lord were all captured by the player as prisoners and locked up in the early days of the Hugodi lord's rebellion, and they stayed in prison for at least half a year, With a panicked and numb look on his face, if Chen Kai hadn't bought them from Prime Minister Capello, maybe these people would have either died in prison or were sold as slaves and worked in the mines until they died
In fact, if it weren't for their special status, maybe Baron Kemdal would have taken the lead in buying these soldiers to serve as hard laborers, digging up the dense metal ore around Hugodi to build weapons to enrich the army, but now the underground world connected to the mine is basically occupied by demonic creatures and the rebel forces of the former lord, This makes many player lords occupy Baoshan empty, but there is no way to obtain treasures, even Chen Kai himself knows that there are at least a dozen pyrite and copper concentrate mines distributed in the territory, as well as a small Mithril Essence mine, but these deposits are all Chen Kai asked those civil construction mages to bury them with spells, although doing so is tantamount to cutting off the financial route, but in the face of a critical passage that can be used as a former lord's troops at any time and a mineral deposit that has no money to make for the time being, Chen Kai will still choose the former
As long as the ore is in the territory, then Chen Kai will definitely have the opportunity to develop them as long as he is still the lord, but if Chen Kai is not the lord, then there will be no chance to develop the ore, and it is useless to keep these mines, it is better to bury them directly, of course, Chen Kai is not the only one who does this, other lords have also done this, so there are basically only a few mines left in the entire Hugodi territory. And all at the risk of being mined by the former lord's forces as an exit to the underworld, along with the ground
The reason why the former lord, who was made the king of wild boars by Chen Kai, had the confidence to rebel was because of the hundreds of metal mines around Hugodi and the powerful blacksmiths of Hugodi, but now there are only a few good blacksmiths in the entire territory, and most of them live in the territory of the aboriginal aristocratic alliance, and Chen Kai's territory also has blacksmiths, but they can only make some low-level weapons, Although the quality is good, but there is still a little distance from the excellent quality, this is also the sequelae of the war to Hugodi, the loss of a large number of high-end talents, so that Hugodi's once human ironforge fortress has become a city in the past, which was once called the dwarf forging capital of humans, but now there is not even a master blacksmith, and even the former lord city has become a ruin, which has to be said to be a sadness
When Chen Kai looked at these captive soldiers who were shackled and numb, he saw an extremely special person, because he did not look numb like the others, but quietly looked in the direction of the old city of Hugodi in the north, and only after a long time sighed, or remembered something, and spat on the ground
"Who's that guy?" Chen Kai's gaze quickly moved away from the Eagle Eye telescope, and then passed the intercepted picture to Xu Fei beside him
"Boss, do you really think I'm an Encyclopedia Britannica or a Gu Ge Du Niang?" Xu Fei glanced at Chen Kai directly, he really didn't want to answer Chen Kai's question, but although he was not the only one in the entire team who collected information, he was always sorting it out after the final summary, so Chen Kai wanted to ask something, and it was absolutely not wrong to find Xu Fei basically, of course, the premise is that Xu Fei's database has this information
"Huh? Did you really not expect it to be a big Drake? Hom Anstain, former head of the Black Knights of Hugodi, the iron-fisted lion Hashimov? The only son of Hom Anstain, the knight title was once known as the lion cub of the Black Armor Knights of Hugodi, but now he is a group of poor people like those soldiers, his mother was killed by his father himself, although he was in a state of madness after the demonization, and he was chased and killed by the lord of Hugodi because he refused to accept the demonization, and after escaping from the city, he was rescued by a passing player, but he was still imprisoned" Xu Fei looked at the picture passed by Chen Kai, With the help of the data analysis system in the system, he quickly found this person's information in the information he collected about Hugodi's territory
"Lion cubs? When I meet me, I hope he can be strong enough" Chen Kai touched his chin, but after he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that the other party's father was also called a lion, although it was much worse than him, but it still made Chen Kai feel very weird
"Let's go and see these guys, I hope they can continue to fight after recuperation, I don't want to spend a lot of money to buy back a bunch of waste that can't wield weapons" Chen Kai knows very well that most of the soldiers basically don't have much combat effectiveness, after all, after being locked up in prison for nearly half a year, even if they were as strong as cattle in the past, they are now estimated to be almost as thin as bamboo poles
"But I guess you don't have too much hope, what I hope most is that they won't become a burden or even a hidden bomb in the town, you know, they used to be the soldiers of Lord Hugodi, God knows if that lord put something special on them, such as making them demonized into puppets or something?" Xu Fei was very angry that Chen Kai spent more than 2 million yuan to buy these prisoners and their families, although there was a lot of food transported by these soldiers and their families, but this time it added nearly 15,000 mouths to the entire Burkner Town, so that Xu Fei had no choice but to calculate the food consumption with his calculations
For Xu Fei, he felt an extreme headache at the thought of the next time he had to tighten his belt to live, and the most depressed thing for him was that most people were still welcoming the increase in urban population, especially when they saw that these increased populations were all young and middle-aged, they were extremely happy, after all, young and middle-aged people are not only the main force of food production, but also the main source of army soldiers, especially among these people, there are many soldiers who are former lords, which is excellent news
"Damn, this damn profiteer" Chen Kai was still in a good mood when he saw these soldiers clearly, but when he saw those soldiers who were not wearing armor, he was instantly angry, as for those war horses, needless to say, maybe these war horses were good horses in the past, but they were disabled in the battle, and now they are all lame horses, and it is already very good to be able to act as a horse, as for the ride, it is a dream
"Okay, at least these weapons are still good, and there is enough food, the most important thing is these two things," Xu Fei pointed to the two magic crystal cannons that Fei Yun was inspecting, obviously the Prime Minister Capello also knew that ordinary garbage armor was not worth so much money at all, so he took two magic crystal cannons that might have been eliminated as compensation
"But this can't be better at all, these two things are used at a glance, God knows if they will be broken" Chen Kai pointed to the two magic crystal cannons depressedly and said, of course, the caliber of these two magic crystal cannons is much more than the magic crystal cannons that Chen Kai put in the city If Chen Kai's magic crystal cannons are small, then these two should be small and strengthened, and they are still a little far from the medium-sized magic crystal cannons, but they are definitely more powerful than the small magic crystal cannons, but no matter how powerful they are, if there is no way to use them, they are scum, Therefore, although Chen Kai was a little expectant in his heart, he was still dissatisfied, after all, the black-armored cavalry armor that he originally expected had become this garbage, and it was not as strong as the militia leather armor in his warehouse
"At least not bad, aren't they?" Xu Fei pointed at the numb soldiers and said, although it seemed that they looked very numb and had almost no hope of life, but just by visual inspection, these soldiers were still very strong
"It's really good, and it seems to be a little overdone," Chen Kai's eyes looked at the so-called lion cub who pushed away those soldiers and headed straight towards him, as the iron-fisted lion Hashhimov? Holm Anstain's only son, this Drake? The former knight of Homanstain has the same golden hair as his father, but he is young and strong, but he does not have the loyalty of the knight in his eyes, because he and his father both gave their loyalty to their lord, but the end result is that one became a captive and the other is currently missing, and basically most players believe that the knight leader has basically been demonized into a monster
"Is there anything wrong with you?" Chen Kai was very interested in the middle-aged man who rushed in front of him, to be honest, the other party was too unique, and this guy was the most normal one among so many numb soldiers
"Please help me unshackle and I need a treatment that matches my status" Drake? Hom Anstain said to Chen Kai in a very firm tone, while raising the shackles in his hands
"Of course you can, and it's not just your shackles that will be untied, everyone behind you will be unshackled, as long as you swear permanent allegiance to me," Chen Kai gently patted the other party's shoulder and said, he knew that such an oath was basically not binding, even knights would betray their lords because of various temptations, of course, Chen Kai would not be so stupid, because he had prepared a contract so that these soldiers would not be so easy to betray
"I'm sorry, I don't think I can do it, I'm loyal to my past lord but he turned my father into a monster, my father killed his loved one in front of me, which is my mother, so I don't trust any lord, so I can't be loyal to you" Drake's face flashed with hatred as he said this, he hated his own father, and hated the lord of Hugodi, the man who turned his father into a monster and his mother into a corpse to be continued)
