The other party was about thirty years old, with a mustache, a mouthful of gold teeth like an upstart, and a shining magic crystal ring pinned to his finger.
In normal times, he would naturally be considered a wealthy man, but now the Emerald Ridge is an ancient family with a long history.
The House of Warcraft, the Renault Chamber of Commerce, the Chino Commissary, and the Blood Chamber of Gods and Demons, all of them are thunderous big shots.
Not to mention the hottest Thousand Sails City and the Red Copper Duke right now, and they are not of the same grade at all.
Li Zhenshu naturally couldn't entertain these ordinary businessmen.
The merchants looked at the merchant who suddenly shouted, and couldn't figure out what he was going to do at this time.
It is difficult to follow the Duke of Red Copper to participate in Li Zhenshu's banquet.
"Is there something wrong?", Li Zhen turned around and asked gently.
The young merchant looked around, took a step back, approached the Minotaur who was guarding him, and said boldly, "Li Zhenshu, do you and the Thousand Sails City Lord want to discuss business?" β
Li Zhen was puzzled, and invited them to have some business conversations, otherwise a hot person like the Duke of Red Copper would not have visited Emerald Ridge.
"Yes!"
"That must be Terran business. The young businessman emboldened himself.
"Hmm!", Lao Li nodded, a little curious about what the other party wanted to do.
"Since it's the business of the Terrans, why can't you talk to us? β
As soon as the young businessman's voice fell, all the merchants seemed to have captured something, and they all stared at Li Zhenshu, now is the most critical moment for the Jade Business Alliance.
That's right!
The Duke of Red Copper, the Lord of Thousand Sails, one is located in the northeast of the Terran Continent, and the other is in the southeast, which is not connected at all, and suddenly visiting Emerald Ridge is obviously agreed.
It must be big business.
How could these ancient chambers of commerce suddenly emerge, and then think of Li Zhenshu's consistent investment style, this kind of occasion is likely to represent the circulation of huge golden hooves.
The businessmen know very well that no one will leak such trade secrets, but there is a desire in their hearts, one person can't do it, but how many more people can't.
"Since it's a Terran, why can't you talk to us? β
"Li Zhenshu, are you underestimating us? β
"We are also from the Emerald Business Alliance, and Hine told us at the beginning that we wanted to share information. β
There were people shouting loudly, and as the shouts continued to rise, there were more and more figures standing behind the young businessmen.
They ventured to Emerald Ridge, not to enjoy.
The young businessman saw that there were already more than 100 leaders of the merchant group behind him, and his confidence was even stronger, "Li Zhenshu, we are aiming for the credibility of Emerald Ridge and putting our worth here, in your opinion, there are very few 300,000 golden hooves, but we are all from our family, you should treat us equally." β
Li Zhenshu couldn't help but laugh, if in normal times, he would unceremoniously refuse the other party's request, what obligation does he have to serve you.
Looking at the jade badge on the other party's chest, "Duke, look?"
"It's not a big business, let's talk to them, everyone has smashed out all their net worth, and it's not very good to hide it. ", the Duke of Red Bronze laughed.
"Morel, put up a map of the continent of Isengard. β
A few clever laborers propped up the scaffold, and a blackboard-sized map of the continent appeared in front of everyone.
The map of the continent is different from the normal one, marked with countless curves, densely packed.
Merchants have long seen this map, and they can clearly see the layout of the network on the ice sheet, which is different from before, and now there are more routes on the map.
Morel cleverly sent a long stick and stood safely to one side.
Li Zhen trembled and looked at the Thousand Sails City Lord, and one end of the long stick landed on the Thousand Sails City, "You must be curious about what kind of big deal the Thousand Sails City Lord came over in person, but it's nothing, it's just to discuss the passage of this locomotive line." β
Li Zhenshuo said casually, but the businessmen listened carefully.
A straight line was drawn from Thousand Sails City to Sandwind Point, which was a track, along the Sandwind Point, the Storm Course, the Onyx Great Wasteland, and finally landed on the Savage Plateau.
A straight line connects several points together in their entirety.
"Is this line open?", the young merchant asked, thinking of the sudden arrival of the Blueskin Shark Clan's purchase contract, which no longer needed to be explained.
Thinking about the ancient merchant group that has popped up now, they obviously already know that this track can run.
From the Savage Plateau to the Alchemy Kingdom, leading directly to the Endless Sea, such a long transportation route has completely opened up the gap of the human race.
"What is that line?", suddenly a person pointed to another red line, from the small corner of the sand wind all the way north, the border line of the Black Iron Kingdom interspersed, straight through the Ice Kingdom, into the Red Copper Kingdom area.
Everyone suddenly looked at the Red Copper Duke and Duchess on the side, the Thousand Sails City Lord came here to connect the line, so the Red Copper Duchess and his wife.
Is there also a track here?
"I remember that on the border of the Black Iron Kingdom, the Second Prince's legion seemed to be secretly guarding an area. β
After being reminded, everyone remembered that in the junction area between the Black Iron Kingdom and the Gale Wind Kingdom, the second prince firmly controlled this area.
The Black Iron Kingdom supported the Second Prince, and designated a part of the border as the rebel's sphere of activity.
"It's impossible not to know what's going on in the Ice Kingdom. β
Li Zhen shivered and glanced towards the Whale Tavern, and William's figure flashed through the door.
With the status of the Ice Prince, he can do a lot of things, especially the current Emerald Ridge, and with the secret support of the Red Copper Kingdom, it is easy to control an area where railroad tracks can be built.
There was not a single word coming out of this track.
The Red Copper Kingdom, William's control forces, the second prince's rebels, the stone demons, such a tortuous line, Emerald Ridge relied on such a rebel army, and the northern part of the Terran Continent pulled out a locomotive line.
The Red Copper Kingdom controls the north, and the Alchemy Kingdom controls the south, and these two major arteries were unconsciously established.
The merchants secretly rejoiced and thanked the young merchant, if it weren't for him, it would not have been possible to know the formation of the two great arteries.
Even if you do, you may lose the fastest opportunity to make money.
This kind of opening is the most unpleasant thing for the whole human race, but it is the most pleasant thing for the merchants.
With a dwarven locomotive, it doesn't take a day to go from the distant kingdom of red copper to the wasteland.
What's more, this is the era of the exploitation of ice field mineral deposits, and as long as you occupy a mine, you can sell the mined goods.
The Alchemy Kingdom, the Red Copper Kingdom, one left and one right will pick up the Terran continent.
The market for the Terrans in the wasteland has taken shape.
"That obscure red line, is it going to the Thunder Yan Kingdom? A merchant with excellent eyesight seemed to see a wiped dark line on the base map, from the small corner of the sand wind through the Empire of Light, all the way to the easternmost kingdom of the Terrans.
Go through the Empire of Light.
The businessmen didn't dare to think that if Li Zhenshu really succeeded, then the Terran market would really be completely opened.
Will the Empire of Light agree?
No!
This is the answer that could not be more certain, as the first force of the Terran race, it has always firmly controlled the development of the entire Terran country.
Although it is seven kingdoms, in the eyes of the Empire of Light, there is only one, even the Red Copper Kingdom, which must be dependent on the will of the Empire of Light.
The merchants were scared, but excited.
The two major arteries of the Terrans have been built, and relying on this artery, it can continuously transport all kinds of specialties of the Terrans to the entire continent.
Any piece of syrup can be sold to the beast clan to earn three times the profit.
The market consumption of the entire continent is many times stronger than that of a single human race.
Orcs, barbarians, and even sea tribes.
Merchants did not dare to think about how vast the market was.
"Li Zhenshu, I also want to build a track!", the young businessman said suddenly, his voice unmistakable.
"Build a track?", everyone is inexplicable, how is it possible, by himself?
"Where do you want to fix. β
The young merchant walked straight to the map, took a red pen and drew a small curve, only a few centimeters long, along the edge of the railroad tracks in the Ice Kingdom, along with a small city of ice.
Ice Castle.
"My father was the Count of the Ice Castle and was more than capable of winning the project. β
The merchants stared at the map and instantly realized what was the most profitable.
Orbit!
Look at the robbers in the wasteland, which one is not rich.
Think about how long the Stone Demon has only been independent from the Gale Wind Kingdom, and has already built the Silver Moon Canyon in a good way.
All of this needs to be supported by golden hooves.
As long as you have the ability, you can get a piece of the pie from Li Zhenshu's hands.
The second prince, the hidden rebel army of the Ice Kingdom, why did they build this track, they knew very well how much profit they could distribute from Li Zhenshu's hands.
The merchants felt their hearts pounding, and yes, they could get a piece of the pie too.
