Chapter 369: Foothold, the local tyrant is extreme

Planet Girubi.

A living planet with a diameter of 150,000 kilometers, a surface area of more than 7 trillion square kilometers, and a surface gravity index of 1.05G.

A more habitable planet with a rotation period of 65 days and an average temperature of 15 degrees.

Except for the ice sheets at the North and South Poles.

Large areas of water-scarce deserts and snowy plateaus are basically forbidden areas for life.

Only 35% of the total area, or 2.45 trillion square kilometers, is suitable for intelligent life.

And in such a huge area, there are many civilizations, tens of millions of empires or kingdoms, countless lords and forces.

After some discussion with the experts.

Wei Ming plans to put his foothold on the planet Jirubi.

One, the planet is very large, and there is a lot of room and potential for development.

Secondly, it is relatively close to the center of the galaxy, and the development of various fields is relatively prosperous, which is a good springboard to the world stage of Julius Soma.

In addition, there are fewer large forces and many small forces on the planet Girubi, and there are no hegemon-level powerful forces for the time being.

In such an environment, it is very suitable for fishing in troubled waters and growing from it.

The Principality of Yalin, a small and weak kingdom with an area of one million square kilometers and a population of about five million and a regular army of less than 50,000, is often pressed to the ground by the powerful neighbors around it.

To the west of the principality, there is a desolate Gobi region with an area of more than a billion square kilometers, with little rainfall and flat terrain, but almost no grass grows and is of little value.

Not very suitable for human survival.

Call it "Liyuan Gobi".

Wei Ming took a fancy to this land.

Immediately sent a representative to Wei Qi, learned the local language, and carried a large sum of money to visit the Duke of Yalin, wanting to buy the desert as a foothold.

……

Principality of Arin, City of Danlos.

Wei Qi, who came to visit as a wealthy merchant passing by, gave a generous gift, and was received by the Duke of Idiga and told the purpose of the visit.

"Do you want to buy the Liyuan Gobi in the west and open up a piece of land for the tribe to survive and reproduce?"

Duke Idiga, who looked like a forty-year-old middle-aged man, looked at Wei Qi below and said: "The Gobi is short of water, can't grow food, can't feed the population, why don't you buy land that can grow food?" ”

"If the Duke agrees to sell the land that is suitable for living, we are willing to buy the permanent property rights of 100,000 mu of land at the price of one gold coin per mu (about 1,000 square meters) for more than 10,000 people to survive, I wonder if the Duke agrees?"

Wei Qi asked.

One gold coin and one acre of cooked land, at the price level of the planet Girubi, at least ten times the premium to buy.

However, the freehold means that the lord cannot collect taxes and establish rule in the future, which is equivalent to a private independent territory that cannot be violated in the slightest.

Under normal circumstances, without that lord, the freehold of the land will be sold, unless the land is ceded due to defeat or other reasons.

"100,000 acres, 100,000 gold coins?"

Duke Idega's eyes lit up, and his heart pounded.

The Principality of Yalin is located in a remote area, with few people and poor countries, even if it is the supreme lord of the duke, the annual income is only more than 10,000 gold coins, plus to support the duke and maintain a considerable army, it is often in a state of making ends meet, if the year is not good, the agricultural harvest is reduced, and the life cannot go on, you may have to borrow money from usury merchants, and carry a heavy burden, and if you want to pay off the debt, you have to grit your teeth and cut back on food and clothing for several years.

It is also quite possible to have to sell some territory in the event of a serious debt default.

Today's Principality of Yalin has tens of thousands of debts left unpaid and only 2,000 gold coins left in the treasury, and life is very embarrassing.

And 100,000 acres of cooked land is only 100 tabi (square kilometers), which is only 1/10,000 of the area of the Principality of Yalin.

But it can be exchanged for ten years of financial revenue.

Immediately in exchange for three to five years of good life.

It's a great deal.

Thinking of this, the Duke of Idiga nodded and said, "Yes, I agree to this deal and sell you 100,000 acres of cooked land!" ”

"His Excellency Duke Xie~"

Wei was quite surprised at first, then rolled his eyes, and said: "I don't know if the land we purchased can be selected next to the Liyuan Gobi, and in addition, we will pay another 200,000 gold coins to buy 10 million acres of wasteland located in the Liyuan Gobi?" We intend to invest in transforming those barren lands into food-producing land. ”

"You even want the desert?"

Duke Idiga was surprised and said: "200,000 gold coins, not to mention 10 million mu, in the Liyuan Gobi, you can reclaim as much as you want, I will not object to and stop it." ”

"Okay, that's it, thank you, Lord Duke!"

Wei Qi was also very happy, he didn't expect the talks to go so smoothly, this Duke of Idiga was very good, which was beyond his expectations.

That day!

A contract for the purchase of land was signed, and the extent was delineated on the map.

A full 300,000 gold coins, Wei Qi also took out the space bracelet and poured it in front of the Duke of Idja.

Piled up into a golden hill.

The Duke of Idega's eyes were full of gold, and he squatted on the ground tremblingly, grabbed a handful of gold coins, and muttered like a fan of wealth:

"300,000 gold coins, I have never seen so many gold coins in my life."

"And judging from the fineness, this is still full gold, and the value of one piece is at least equivalent to two five-foot gold, and it can be spent as at least 500,000 gold coins."

"Not only will I be able to pay off my debts immediately, but I will also be able to repair my ducal castle, build a beautiful palace, and raise a strong army."

"The merchant organization called the 'Black Chamber of Commerce' is so rich, they are far richer than me, and they are very generous, and they are willing to pay 200,000 gold coins for worthless land, and their property may be far more than 300,000, maybe a million, or even more."

"Be sure to make friends with them, build deep friendships, and do more business."

Anyway, why didn't he come up with the idea of killing people and stealing goods, the merchant representative named Wei Qi was just an ordinary person with no magic fluctuations on his body.

On his hand, he was wearing a space object of incalculable value, and it was the first time that the Duke of Idiga had seen such a magical thing.

In fact, the greedy idea of killing people and taking money did not pop up in his heart, but after only a second or two, he was immediately suppressed.

This world, due to the development of commerce, the power of the Chamber of Commerce, the energy of merchants, is more powerful than many kingdoms.

Even many kingdoms that have existed for more than a thousand years have not died in the hundreds of years of border friction with neighboring countries, but because they offended a certain chamber of commerce and did something to kill people and seize money, they soon suffered a fatal blow, and the royal family members were killed in one day, the king was destroyed, and the millennium kingdom collapsed.

Similar examples abound.

The Duke of Idega is a relatively intelligent person, greedy, but able to restrain and maintain his sanity, so he does not dare to have bold ideas.

After all, the forces that can take out 300,000 gold coins at one time definitely have the forces to defend the interests of 300,000 gold coins, and they must not take advantage of the fact that they will lose their minds and do things that kill themselves.

……

The deal is struck.

A few days later, the Xplorer landed on the west side of a town called "Dorda", and most of the people on board disembarked and stepped on solid ground.

As much as the town, now it belongs to Wei Ming's territory.

In the west of the Liyuan Gobi, he can open up as much as he wants, and there is no limit.

"Boss~"

Wei Qi on the side said: "This town is ours now, there were about 300 residents in the town before, I asked them to move out of the town at the price of 10 gold coins per person, to find a new home, more than 200 people moved away, but there are also more than 100 people, they don't want to move away, they don't want to add money, what do you say?" ”

"If you want to stay, you can stay, I won't live in this town, these natives won't have much impact."

Wei Ming opened his mouth and said: "Immediately release the robot, and strive to build a city where we live within three or five days, and by the way, level the ground that is all full of stones." ”

"Yes, put the robots!"

Order.

Ten operators lined up, and at the same time opened the infinite space-time gems in their hands, and released one engineering robot after another.

The robot ran out of thin air.

All of them are engineering robots with a height of more than five meters and a weight of more than ten tons.

It's like ten assembly lines.

After a while, more than 100,000 units were released, and the number was still increasing.

More than a million units.

It was not until 10 million units that the release was terminated.

The indigenous people of Doda Town were stunned.

Trembling and looking at everything in front of him, watching the engineering robots smash boulders, bulldoze mountains, and quickly change the entire land.

"God, this is the noble God! They are true gods! ”

An old indigenous man suddenly fell to his knees, kowtowing desperately, his eyes full of fanaticism.

"Don't be afraid, folks."

Wei Qi walked up to them, first stopped them from bowing, and then said: "We are a group of merchants, and we want to establish ourselves here for a while, and since you are unwilling to leave, and are willing to become the lords of the town of Darta, then all your taxes will be exempted in the future, and you will be given some opportunities to work." ”

Tax-free?

The natives were all stunned, and asked several times, but they all replied definitely: the tax is completely exempt, and the adults are too lazy to collect their little tax, but waste precious time.

In the future, whatever they plant, all belong to them, and whoever comes to collect taxes must be liars and can be beaten to death.

"God, this is the true God of benevolence and kindness, there will be no mistake, absolutely nothing wrong, our good days are coming!"

The old natives fell to their knees, their eyes more exaggerated, and their own judgment more convinced.

1,000 words of anti-theft content (etc. will be modified)

"Why don't you go back to the countryside, rent a house with a small yard, and then grow some vegetables in the yard, raise some chickens and ducks, if you feel tired, you can put on a backpack and go to the neighborhood to go hiking, or bring a fishing rod and fish in the lake......"

"This kind of life may also be very good."

Wei Ming's face showed a look of longing, and even an impulse arose in his heart.

After all, as a freelancer, he can go anywhere in the world, and there is no need to stay stuck in a big city and breathe uncomfortable turbid air all day long.

Moreover, the cost of living in the countryside is not high, and you can also grow your own vegetables and breed them, which is suitable for health preservation and full of fun.

It's a good idea to go to the countryside and develop.

Quasar.

The oldest, most massive, and most energy-dense object in the universe.

They are the product of the evolution of galaxies to the end, and their core is generally a massive black hole with millions to tens of trillions of masses of the Sun, surrounded by nebula dust with a diameter of tens to tens of thousands of light-years.

Under the huge gravitational pull of the black hole at the core of the quasar, the dust of the surrounding nebula continues to fall into the center of the black hole, which is shaped like a giant eye-shaped accretion disk.

Due to the fall of a large amount of matter, at the poles of the black hole, a huge amount of conversion energy will push a large number of high-energy particles to be ejected outward at a speed infinitely close to the speed of light, forming two huge pillars of light.

Right here and now.

In a star field 12.7 billion light-years away from the blue star, a quasar with a core black hole with a mass of more than 1,000 trillion suns, after swallowing enough material, caused by quantitative change, suddenly exploded!

A violent ray burst eruption was formed.

Among the countless high-energy particles ejected, there is a strange high-energy particle, which contains unimaginable energy, very similar to the primordial particles that were born in a very short time during the Big Bang.

Then, at a speed far exceeding the speed of light, beyond common sense, he crossed endless time and space, and flew in a certain direction of the blue star.

As evening approached, it was getting dark.

The row of turquoise office buildings across the river began to light up with colorful neon lights.

I remembered my good years when I was only 26 years old.

It began to exude a thick twilight like the twilight of this evening, and I fantasized about living an idyllic and comfortable rural life.

Forty years of early retirement.

"Is it really appropriate to think about retirement so early, eat and wait for death?"

"Painting a two-dimensional cute girl every day, can you fill the emptiness of no object?"

"Isn't it better to have a house and a car in this prosperous world to have a place of your own than to be empty and not leave something in the world?"

"Life can't be as brilliant as summer flowers, but at least it must emit a little light and heat that people can see, just like that meteor, like a red line, although inconspicuous, but piercing the sky."

"No, why did that meteor fly towards me?"

I am surprised!

There was no time to dodge, and the thin red line went straight into Wei Ming's forehead and entered his brain.

Boom!

Wei Ming's eyes seemed to reproduce the scene of the Big Bang, endless energy and dazzling firelight, jumping and shining in front of him, showing countless changes, forming an orange world of fire, full of rage, disorder and chaos.
