Chapter 62 Sky-high land
Avril looked at Li Zhenshu quietly, there are still a lot of puzzles now, but it is just a little privilege, as long as he doesn't reveal it, naturally no one will know, "Li, Alai's conditions, you can't think about it again!"
"Avril, now we have a golden vein in our hands, how many pairs of eyes are staring, if we want to live safely, we must not give any one privileges!"
"However, as for the exit, the underground passage has almost been built, and the bandit leader of the transit station has already let his men and horses settle in, as well as those merchants, just waiting for this passage, if Stormwind City does not open here, everything for us will be in vain. ”
Li Zhen smiled tremblingly, "Who can't tell, isn't there another way for Stormwind City to get the land?"
"Other ways?", Avril frowned, in addition to cooperating with these merchants, the city lord's instructions, what else, is it, buying?"
Li Zhen nodded, "Why not, isn't there a rule in Stormwind City, as long as war doesn't break out, you can buy land outside the city at will?"
"But they also said that if war doesn't break out, Stormwind City has no reason to protect our exports, and besides, I heard that the price is the same as the land in Stormwind City, and one square meter needs a golden hoof, our exit!"
"At least 10,000 square meters, if I'm not mistaken!", Li Zhen laughed as if he was making 10,000 coppers.
Avril felt that there was a problem with her hearing, 10,000 square meters, then at least 10,000 golden hooves, "Lee, where are we going to get so much money?"
Li Zhenshuo stood up, walked straight to the hole next to him, lifted the thick curtains, and the two Medusa maids slowly retreated, "Senior Nolan, I'm glad you can come to my remote cave." In the cave sat Nolan, the official councillor of Smye, while on the other side was the old priest of the Temple of War.
"Li Zhenshu, didn't you hear those merchants say that I am already the biggest fool in the Smai tribe, two hundred golden hooves sold the most valuable valley, and it is also my own golden hooves, that valley, now only the market price difference is good, there are two thousand golden hooves. Nolan snorted coldly, "If it weren't for the sacrifice invitation, I would have come to your cave?"
"Seniors forgive me, if I tell you, I can't take any of this financial road, I invite you to come over this time, I need to ask you for help. ”
"Say it!", Nolan was in a good mood, two months ago, the old priest suddenly returned to Smythai City, directly found Nolan, and asked him to expel five hundred elites to settle in a remote area of the wasteland, and ordered that no matter what the cost, he would occupy it.
At that time, Nolan still couldn't figure it out, but the top sacrifice directly used by the entire temple cleared the surrounding bandit groups with a thunderous sweeping posture and established a camp in the barren wasteland.
It wasn't until recently, when news of the Transit Station and the Underground Highway was spreading in the wasteland, that Nolan knew that the Old Priest had declared that it was the First Transit Station closest to Smye City that he had to occupy.
If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have been invited by Li Zhenshu to come to this broken cave and walk all the way from the underground high-speed passage, and she was completely shocked by Li Zhenshu's generosity.
The ground was paved with repaired stone slabs from the Orc Plateau, the top layer was paved with fluorescent stone, and the four wide passages that allowed passage, plus the well-kept four-horned deer, it used to take at least five days to penetrate the entire wasteland, but now it took less than five hours.
Originally, he also planned to use the power of Smai City to build another underground passage, but seeing Li Zhenzhen's handwriting, he gave up, just supporting the iron frame structure of the collapse of the wasteland, it was not something he could build casually.
This underground passage seems to have been planned for a long time, and it is just a link that accidentally fell into this dark human race.
Li Zhen trembled and smiled, "Senior Nolan, I actually want to borrow some money from you this time!"
"Borrow money?", Nolan reflexively asked, her black spot was that Li Zhenshu borrowed his own money to buy his own valley, "What do you want to do?"
"Don't worry, it's just a simple loan, or according to the previous one, a hundred golden hooves, five a year for you, calculate the interest!"
Nolan Tsai looked at Li Zhen carefully, and then thought about the mistakes he might make, before he said, "How much!"
"Ten thousand two thousand!"
"How much?", Nolan almost screamed, "I heard you right, you know how much Smye City earns in a month!"
"That's right, senior, I do need so much money now, and I know that you will definitely give it to me. ”
"Why are you so confident?"
Li Zhenshuo pointed to the long tunnel outside, "As long as this tunnel is opened, 10,000 golden hooves are nothing at all, secondly, this time I mainly buy an exit, although the cost is a little bigger, but it is worth the money, third, I use this tunnel as collateral, how about it, repay the money within a year, and when the time comes, there will be one less copper, and this tunnel will be yours." ”
"You want to use this tunnel as collateral?", Nolan frowned, the old priest on the side didn't react at all, no one knew the purpose of this tunnel better than her, once it entered winter, the most scarce thing for the beast clan was food, the cold wasteland blocked the only trade route, just keep the trade open, she would be considered a great merit for the beast clan.
Although Smythie City has a huge income every year, six of them have to be captured among the orc high-level, and Nolan understands that he can gain a foothold in the west of the wasteland, and behind it is the huge orc.
"It's a little too much! I can lend you 10,000 at most!", he said and glanced at the old priest on the side, 10,000 golden hooves, this money is terrifying, it is considered to be on the bones, and slowly took out ten brilliant gems from his body, black and red, with a faint low temperature.
"What is this?"
"Magic Crystal Coins!", Nolan sighed, "It stands to reason that this kind of currency is definitely not allowed to be exported to the Terrans, but this is a private transaction, a Magic Crystal Coin is worth a thousand gold hooves, Li Zhenshu, a year later, what I want is also Magic Crystal Coins, Golden Hoof, I don't want it!"
Looking at these dark red stones, although each one is different, the energy seems to be very balanced, under the shell of the gem, it seems to be sealed with a special energy, "Senior, why are these magic crystal coins so valuable?"
"Have you ever seen the magic crystal cannon, the kind on the head of Stormwind City, there are no cannonballs, they need pure magic crystals to fire, one magic crystal coin can make a small magic crystal cannon fire once. ”
Li Zhenshuo didn't ask any more questions, and carefully put away the magic crystal coin, he knew that Nolan could be so generous, and he was already an absolute support for himself.
Stormwind is more prosperous than expected, although soldiers are stationed on the city walls, but within the city gates, it is simply a metropolis.
The mercenary union, the hunter union, the mage alliance, all kinds of shops, restaurants, theater management, you can't see the fortress at all.
There are not only human beings on the side, but also some sea tribes, barbarians on the snow field, and only few beast tribes.
The land exchange is on the edge of the central square, and it is very crowded, and in addition to land transactions, the rest is a variety of housing transactions.
"Excuse me, is this a land transaction?", a bearded old man in front of the table, holding a quill and gesturing on parchment.
"Well, you're going to buy land, sell land?"
"I want to buy a piece!", Li Zhenshu said.
"Oh!", the old man said, pulling the map apart, "that piece?"
This map is much more detailed than Arley's, with the various lands in Stormwind that stretch out to almost the edge of the wasteland.
Li Zhenshuo carefully compared the map and drew a small circle with a quill pen, "I want this land." ”
The old man glared, "Young man, don't scribble, just point it to me where you want, your small circle is five or six hundred square meters!"
"Five or six hundred?", Li Zhenshu took the quill and planned to expand the circle twice.
"What are you doing, making trouble, I'll be on guard!"
"No, no, senior, I want this land. ”
"Do you know how big this piece is? More than 5,000 square meters, by the way, don't you know how many square meters, although this is outside the city, but the price of the land is set by the city lord, and it is the same as inside the city!"
"I know, senior, you can give me the paperwork!"
"Do you really want this, how much?"
"Closer to 10,000 square meters!"
The old man stared at Li Zhenshu for a long time, confirming that he was not joking, "This is a lower basin, a total of 9,600 square meters, and a total of 9,600 gold hooves need to be paid, if you don't have cash." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the ten diamond-like beads on Li Zhenshu's palm, "This is, Magic Crystal Coins?"
Li Zhen shuddered and smiled, "Can you trade now?"
"Of course!", the other party was simply stunned, and was secretly shocked in his heart, this human being is not very old, and he has such a huge amount of money in hand, even if some nobles may not be able to take out tens of thousands of gold hooves casually.
couldn't help but look at this young man a lot, quickly issued documents, stamped and signed, retrieved the remaining golden hooves, and stood up with a smile, "Now there are not many young people like you who are so promising, if there are problems with the land in the future, just come to me, by the way, my name is Matthew, just come and report my name directly!"
Looking at the other party's polite appearance, it is obvious that he is worried about the magic crystal coins he has on hand, if he lets the other party know, there are only ten of them on hand, but it feels good to let such an old man send them out directly.
"Hey, Li Zhenshu, why are you here. Alai led two entourages to walk out from the side and touched each other, "Ma Lao, he's here to talk to you about business, don't be fooled, he is a speculator in the Agate Wasteland, don't be deceived!"
