Volume 1 The Endless Wilderness Section 153 Current Affairs
After being stunned for a while, Chen Xing rewrapped the demon pot, carried it behind his back, brought a shovel, opened the iron cabinet, and burrowed into the tunnel of the anthill. He had to find a place to hide the pot and come back to get it later when it was useful.
At this moment, he regretted it in his heart, this thing was like chicken ribs to him, tasteless to eat, and it was a pity to abandon it. The gold pen and gold watch can still be exchanged for money, and I wouldn't have handed it over if I knew it.
In the middle of this, he took an ant cart to the vicinity of the old hatchery, dug a pit, buried the ear pot in it, and contacted Suna through the accompanying termite worker ants to make the area a forbidden area.
After doing all this, Chen Xing returned to his room, took a bath and went to sleep. After a busy night's work, he was so tired that he almost lay down.
For the next few days, the town of Orchid fell silent. Soldiers from various families remained in the camp, packed their things, and were ready to leave at any moment. After the discovery of the steam silkworm, the exploration was put on hold indefinitely. Except for the Principality garrison, none of those troops dared to provoke them.
Perhaps the major families have privately explored the remaining parts, and no one has come forward to object. In this way, the exploration of the 65th underground survival shelter came to an end.
During this period, Chen Xing suddenly remembered that the third uncle only had the strength of the big town guard, but he could use the fake Great Sun Breaking Demon Spear, which was a little different from Ye Yang Bailiu's previous statement. She said that only after she was promoted to the lord level and the spiritual realm turned from virtual to real could she use a fake, so she asked her.
Ye Yang Bailiu told him that the Great Sun Breaking Demon Spear was a relic left by the Ye Yang family's previous powerhouses, with a bloodline imprint, and it had a great affinity for users of the same bloodline, and it could independently support the immature realm, so as to achieve the effect of leapfrogging its use. And an unfamiliar fake, forcibly guided, will cause devastating damage.
To put it bluntly, it's a spelling father.
Disappointed, Chen Xing went out and went to the bar in the town to inquire about the news. Now that the Gate Valve Family is leaving, Orchid Town will return to its former peace. Next, it's time to plan for this year's business.
"Half a month ago, Black Feather captured Farringdon, and the Polly family perished." "Wouldn't it be, a family of counts is gone?" "Yes, I don't think so, didn't the Malan royal family come forward to mediate?" "Both sides are really on fire, and it's useless for anyone to mediate. I saw with my own eyes that the Earl of Polly and his two sons were hanged on Centre Street. Countess Polly was beside the bodies of her husband and son, and was rounded all day by the soldiers of the Black Feather, as well as her three daughters, the youngest of whom was fifteen years old......"
In a noisy bar, several businessmen are talking about current affairs. Being on the edge of the continent and unable to access the conventional satellite network, commonly known as the "clear net" or "crowd net," they communicate with each other everywhere they go to learn about the situation on the mainland and look for business opportunities in fragmented information.
Hearing the words of several businessmen, Chen Xing sat down at the table next to him, and while beckoning the waiter for something, he pricked up his ears and eavesdropped.
In the other party's discussion, Black Feather refers to the Duchy of Black Feather, the lord of the country is the Duke of Zilan, and Farrington is a city of the Duchy of Silverclaw, and the lord of the country is the Marquis of Begonia.
Farrington is a dependency of the Polly family, which appears to have been captured by the Duchy of Black Feather.
The Red Country is still martial, and there has been a tradition of slaughtering cities since ancient times, as well as the customs of headhunting and skinning. Conquerors loved to show off their enemies by cutting off their heads and stringing them on their spears, or to skin them alive and torture them to death. The origin of the name of the Red Country, in addition to the fact that the land is rich in iron and has a dark red color, is also because of these cruel and bloody traditions.
The internal wars of the Red States were no less brutal than those of foreign wars. Once a city is breached, not only the territorial families will be slaughtered, but also the vassal families. Men were hanged, and women were reduced to meat slaves. If it weren't for the Malan royal family's diligent mediation, I am afraid that the family of the gate valve in the Red Country would have to change once in fifty years.
"Oh my God, this feud is deep." "Yes, the soldiers of the Black Feather are lined up, and Sensei is excited." "It's so cool!"
When talking about this kind of content, the eyes of the businessmen are shining. The princess who broke the city has always been a topic of conversation. Although the city is no longer slaughtered, there are still thousands of people in the territorial family plus its vassals.
"The Marquis of Begonia has spoken, and he will enjoy Princess Zilan's screams while drinking from her father's skull." "He's bragging, Silver Claw's comprehensive national strength is far worse than Black Feather, and he also lost Farrington, how can he be the opponent of Grand Duke Zilan."
"It's hard to say, don't forget, Silver Claw has two great lord-level masters in charge, and it is really possible to enter Dove City." "One is seventy or eighty, and the other is seriously injured, I don't think it may work." "That's not, there is an old saying in the Eastern Continent, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and no matter how good it is, it is also a big lord."
The two businessmen argued, and the third advised, "Don't fight, it doesn't matter who wins or loses, it's better to talk about where to do business next." ”
"That's right......" "Hmm." "By the way, I heard that Sanchahe City is short of chili peppers, and those who have the strength can go to the Eastern Continent to get a batch." "That's too far......"
When Chen Xing heard this, he wondered if he would plant a batch of flame peppers this year. Located at the fork of a river northeast of Ice Blue City, the capital of the kingdom, Sancha River City is known as the "cancer on the dragon's heart" and is a free trade city governed by the Chamber of Commerce.
The geographical location of Sancha River City is very advantageous, both by water and land, and with the characteristics of "freedom", it is a gathering place for merchants, mercenaries and wandering warblers. Casinos, bars, shops, and hotels are everywhere, with more than a dozen auction houses and hundreds of exchanges. There are countless large and small forces, mixed with fish and dragons, and sand and mud.
If there is one thing that Sanchahe City lacks, it means that the entire kingdom is lacking, because Sanchahe City is the commercial hub of the kingdom, and more than sixty percent of the goods are in transit there.
"I heard that several large ships of spices have come to Qianfan Port, which are already unsalable, so you can consider buying some." One of the businessmen said, but was quickly denied by the other, "This year's spices are not easy to make, and last year there were too many star anise and pepper, and no one wanted them anywhere." ”
Located at the mouth of the Ambergris River, Qianfan Port is the largest port in the Kingdom.
Chen Xing listened carefully, and the key parts were recorded on a portable screen. The more intelligence is gathered, the more accurate the decision-making will be. These news are true and false, and we need to make more comparisons. Anyway, there are still thousands of people waiting for him to eat in the water station. Only by developing the water station can there be enough tax revenue to purchase strengthening potions and improve their strength.
His next goal is to advance to the elite level, and then lead the team to the rocky mountains to hunt high-level mutant creatures in preparation for the town guard level.
He thought with hope, but he didn't expect that in the next few days, a huge change would happen......
