Chapter 53: Bonanza
β¦β¦
The number of soldiers and the degree of elite are of course very important, but morale should not be underestimated, at this moment the pirate leader is hateful, besieged by more than a thousand elite soldiers, the pirates have suffered heavy casualties, and they have long lost any fighting spirit.
Whoa......
One by one, the frightened pirates threw their weapons on the ground, and then honestly squatted down with their heads in their hands, and this situation spread rapidly like a contagious disease, and occasionally those who resisted were also killed.
The ground was full of pirate corpses, miserable, and the closed houses in Xiyu Village quietly showed a crack, and soon a group of people came out, cheering and choking silently, looking very contradictory.
Luo Yu stepped forward to investigate, and then came over to tell Ye Feng, sighing: "Lord, these people are the original villagers of Xiyu Village, during the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the people were not able to make a living, so they went to sea and moved here, and they were safe for hundreds of years, but five years ago, the pirates landed on the island, occupied Xiyu Village, and slaughtered many middle-aged men......"
Ye Feng frowned: "Send someone over to appease them, just say that we will not harm them, and there will be no more wars in the place where they live in the future, and when the battlefield is cleared, let the soldiers carry the grain on the transport ship and store it in the warehouse of Xiyu Village......"
Luo Yu nodded and left here.
Ye Feng went straight into the administrative center, and saw the village stone monument standing at a glance, and immediately put his palm on it without hesitation.
ββββSystem prompt: Are you sure you want to occupy Xiyu Village?
"Sure!"
ββββSystem prompt: Congratulations on successfully occupying Xiyu Village, Xiyu Village has become your subordinate territory, and you can view the attributes of Xiyu Village through the lord's permissions.
Ye Feng looked at it very carefully, Xiyu Village is a high-level village, all the basic buildings of the territory have been improved, most of them have reached the advanced level, it is worth mentioning that Xiyu Village even has a special dock!
This surprised him......
In addition, in terms of the population of Xiyu Village, there are now only more than 1,500 people left, these are the aborigines of Xiyu Village, if they had not been slaughtered by pirates, as well as all kinds of abuse, there must have been more than 3,000 residents.
After a while, the special military general Lu Wei came over to report, hugged his fists and said: "Lord Qiqi, the battlefield has been cleared, more than 2,500 pirates have been killed, more than 1,000 pirates have surrendered, and on the side of our Maple Leaf Town soldiers, more than 80 people have been injured, but there is no big problem. β
The rank of the soldiers in Maple Leaf Town is too high and well-equipped, even in this kind of large-scale melee, I am afraid that it will be difficult to cause battle damage, after all, those enemies are only 3rd order strength, and 4th order is still a minority.
This result was also expected by Ye Feng.
Lu Wei was the third master of the Black Wind Village, a good-for-nothing soft bone in Ye Feng's eyes, uh...... The initial impression of a person is really a bit difficult to change.
Fortunately, Lu Wei's loyalty was nearly ninety, and Ye Feng didn't worry about anything, so he gave Lu Wei a super-grade internal strength method, so that he could successfully become a super-level general.
"Lu Wei, you quickly lead three hundred soldiers to control those pirate ships in the north of Xiyu Island, so that no fish from escaping will not be good for our plan." Ye Feng said lightly.
"Yes!"
Lu Wei left.
Leaving the administrative center, Ye Feng went to the warehouse in Xiyu Village, wanting to see what good things were inside, this group of eliminated pirates had existed for four or five years, and often went to the coastal area to loot, and it was estimated that there would be a large amount of inventory.
Territory warehouse: 54,260 units of grain, 36,520 units of wood, 12,301 units of stone, 8,560 units of iron ore, 1,254 units of Jiupin refined iron ore, 442 gold and 52 silver and 74 copper coins...... There are 72 nine-grade animal skins, 26 eight-grade animal skins, 857 treasures, 126 ninth-class treasures, and 52 eighth-class treasures......
The inventory in the warehouse was so rich that Ye Feng was dumbfounded, and the coins actually reached more than four hundred gold, which was equivalent to a month's income in his entire territory, and the most valuable thing was the more than 1,000 units of refined iron ore!
Refined iron ore has always been what Ye Feng desires, and the special blacksmith can use refined iron ore to create a series of refined iron equipment, and he also has the refined iron bow blueprint in his hand, which can be called a long-range attack weapon.
Could it be that there is a vein of refined iron ore on Xiyu Island?
Gotta ask!
As for those treasures, he has two years of experience in the game, and he is naturally no stranger, and props such as treasures fall into the hands of players, and they have no effect, so they can only be sold to NPCs at a high price, and NPCs are extremely keen on this kind of thing......
Presumably, the treasures in the warehouse were all looted by pirates.
Among them, the ninth-class and eighth-class treasures are even more valuable.
Treasures can probably be understood as antiques in reality, which have collectible value.
He's going to take the time to exchange it for money!
β¦β¦
Early the next morning, a skinny old man walked over with a smile on his face: "Lord, last night was the most restful sleep we have in four or five years, and everyone is very grateful for the grace of saving our lives." β
The old man's name is Du Ren, and he is the village chief of Xiyu Village.
"Hehe......" Ye Feng smiled faintly, and got down to business: "By the way, there are a few things I want to solve with Du Lao, is there a special shipbuilder in Xiyu Village?" β
The conditions for the construction of a Granddock require the presence of a Grandshipwright in the territory.
"Originally...... But dead. Du Ren hesitated and said.
Ye Feng was surprised: "What's the matter?" β
Du Ren explained with a smile: "The thief who was killed by General Luo last night was a special shipbuilder. β
"Him?"
Ye Feng was a little surprised, he couldn't imagine that the big boss who was killed was still an outlier in the NPC, and he had mastered two professions, this situation was not nothing, but it was very rare: "Another question I want to ask Du Lao, is the refined iron ore in the warehouse obtained by pirates, or is there a vein of refined iron ore in Xiyu Island?" β
"It's such a lord, the refined iron vein has always existed, and when our ancestors first came to Xiyu Island, they found the refined iron vein, but it is of little use to us......"
Du Ren pondered: "Later, the pirates seized our Xiyu Village, learned about the refined iron vein, and began to arrange for manual mining, but the refined iron vein must be mined by miners, so the progress has been very slow. β
After listening to the other party's explanation, Ye Feng had to sigh that his luck was off the charts, what existed in Xiyu Village was a bare iron ore outside the surface, under normal circumstances, if you want to detect iron ore, you must have a special prospector, and the exposed iron ore can be found at a glance.
Another point is about the setting of iron ore mining, iron ore has been a rare ore of the highest grade, unlike the previous collection of ordinary iron ore, as long as it is a person can contribute, but if it is not a miner profession, it is impossible to mine iron ore at all, which greatly limits the mining speed.
The same is true for timber, which requires lumberjacks to come out of the wood.
But it doesn't hurt, there are not a few miners in Maple Leaf Town.
Soon after, under the leadership of Du Ren, he walked four or five miles to the place where the refined iron vein was located.
ββββSystem prompt: You have found Jiupin iron ore vein (rich ore grade)
"Bonanza?"
Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, looked back at Du Ren and said, "Old Du, is Xiyu Island particularly rich in minerals?" β
It's a bonanza!
But the veins in the game are also graded, the smallest is a small vein, the scale is about 1000-3000 units, the medium vein is 5000-10000 units, and the large vein is 10000-50000 units!
The bonanza is more than 50,000 units, and it seems that there is no cap......
In Maple Leaf Town and several territories, there is only one large ore vein, more than ten medium-sized ore veins, and the rest are small ore veins, which will not appear again after mining, which is a non-renewable resource.
On the way here, he hoped that the refined iron vein should be above medium-sized, but he never expected it to be a rich ore level.
What is it called?
Unexpected surprises are not enough to describe Ye Feng's mood at the moment!
It's like when you shop online, the store gives you a lottery ticket, and you find out that you have won the first prize when you draw the lottery.
Yes, that's how it feels!
