"This low-grade gem, either?" Lennon couldn't help but ask.

"The price is still too high, you know, the reason why I am willing to accept it is because my lord intends to build a city with this gem. ”

Lennon was dumbfounded, and Li Anna said with a grin: "So, don't ask for too high a price, lest the big business be ruined." Let's all follow our own prices, really, otherwise if we want to raise the price of our weapons, it's not a matter of minutes. ”

"Don't worry, your weapons, sold to me at the internal price, and my gems, sold to you at the internal price. ”

Lennon's current mood cannot be described as excited.

This kind of gem is everywhere in the world of the feather people, but such a high-grade one in his hand is worth a little money. The low-level gems were all taken to repair the palace.

Although this gem is high-grade, its magical affinity is still small, so it can't be sold for a price.

Bulk purchases, the price is definitely affordable.

As for weapons and equipment, it is quite troublesome to refine by yourself, and the cost is not cheap. In the case of magic creation, where the things are placed, the cost cannot be faked, this kind of transaction is the most comfortable.

"Lennon, let me tell you, you might as well take your people and join my Duke, Emperor Yu will definitely not object, if there is a real fight in the future, he still has a way out. Now he doesn't have to surrender directly, and continues to be his feather emperor. ”

Seeing that Lennon didn't squeak, Li Anna said: "This expedition, if you show value, even if you are a new person, your status will not be bad, if there is anything to hesitate, it should be an outpost for your Yuhuang and understand the world here." ”

"But what's in it for you?" said Lennon, who couldn't help himself, and asked a very delicate question.

Li Anna looked at Lennon, also with a curious face, and said: "I passed by, I saw you, and then the only thing I could choose was to fight you directly, or turn around and leave, or unite your forces." There are three options in total, the duchess will definitely be able to eat you, and it won't take more than a day to call the army over, but it costs a lot of money. Turn around and leave? Leave you here suspicious? Whether you are mad and chase me down and cut me down, or mobilize troops on a large scale to prepare for a war, it is a very normal reaction, and the abnormal reaction is that you and I have never been here and continue to fish. ”

Lennon couldn't help laughing, what Li Anna said was really straightforward and simple.

Yes, I can't act as if the other party hasn't come, if these people turn around and leave, then I will not only be suspicious, I will definitely think that the other party is leaving in order to mobilize an army.

Then the third option, it is not surprising.

The second is the worst, the first is very expensive, the third has nothing to lose, and the war is also a matter of the future, so let's get to know each other first.

"Marlon invites you to come along, mainly because you are not much different from humans. ”

Lennon nodded, this is also the reason why human beings have a decent status in his world. Except for the difference between the two sides, there is indeed not much difference. The cultivation ability of human beings is similar to that of the feather people, but the difference between the feather people and other races is particularly obvious.

The human race, in terms of quantity, surpasses the feather people, and the number of other races is relatively small.

Li Anna was here, secretly signing a barter agreement with Lennon, and she was in a good mood.

This matter is counted as her merit, although it is useless to give her merit.

If you can get a lot of jade by trade, then don't go to war for the time being. Anyway, the price given by the feather people is very acceptable to the duke.

In the manufacture of weapons, the bulk of the cost lies in technology, and once the alchemy factory is formed, the material cost will be very low and very low.

And technical problems, in the wizarding world, there are no patents.

The magician of the duke, if he creates something, he gets a meritorious service. Merit is not money, it determines your social status, citizenship rank.

Unless you're going to starve to death, no one will exchange that feats for gold.

And in the dukedom, if you were a citizen, you would certainly not starve to death. At least a bowl of rice can still be eaten for you.

There are 500 more people on the Lord God, and these 500 people still bring their own supplies. Although the feather people are gorgeously dressed and radiant, including the feather people's subordinates, they are a little different from the original race, but the supplies are a little simple.

The Feather Man used a cloth bag similar to a magic box to bring a large number of beans, which were the food of the Feather Man. The blue beans, the size of her thumb, Li Anna made a bag and studied it in her hand, and found that it was very similar to the spirit rice of the dukedom. However, the Duke's spiritual rice contains all the needs of the human body, and in fact, it does not eat meat or vegetables, and it will not affect health.

This bean is a hierarchical one, the core substance provides energy, and the outer two layers of skin provide various elements needed by human beings.

If spiritual rice is needed for cultivation, then this kind of bean is a war supply.

In addition to a large number of beans, the supplies brought by the feather people are all kinds of dried meat, dried fish, dried shrimp, crabs, and squid......

Basically, they are all caught in the sea, but after careful processing, there is not much odor.

Li Anna quickly understood the meaning of beans, and the planting cost of this thing must be much lower than that of Lingmi. The energy contained in it can be absorbed by the human body and can maintain physical strength for a long time. However, this thing has little significance for spiritual practice. And reimi is a food that improves the human body.

Beans are very suitable for military rations, even if they are a legend like her, eating dozens of them can ensure a day's consumption.

It's easy to preserve, it's okay to eat raw, and the taste is good.

The green beans can be stored in the space gourd. This thing doesn't mean much to cultivation, but it's a high-end product. The space gourd, which can collect the same substance, is a Dao Gate thing, and for magicians, the burden on spiritual power is extremely small. The number of beans that a legendary mage can carry can be quite staggering.

The wizarding world also has logistical pressure, and this kind of bean is strategic.

Of course, Xia He doesn't have to buy it, and after a large-scale deal with the Feather People World in the future, it will be no problem to get seeds and planting methods.

The world of feathers is quite valuable, and if it can be done peacefully, there is no need for war.

The purpose of war is to obtain resources, and no one wants to fight if resources can be obtained at a smaller cost.

Of course, the other purpose of war is to destroy the enemy and the opposing races. The Feather People are not an opposing race, and their number in each world is also very rare. It is not easy to appear in a world dominated by feather people, even if it is a parallel space world.

When a race is always a relatively small existence in the universe, then there is no need to rush to exterminate the race, often they will destroy themselves.

Hatred between races is often also a matter of resources.

For example, in the Overworld, half-elves and half-orcs are all capable of living like humans, so they will inevitably compete for survival resources. The ability to give birth here is different from non-intelligent life, and it is normal for non-intelligent life to have dozens in a litter.

Intelligent life can give birth to the number of offspring that can be raised and survived during its own life cycle.

Humans can raise about five or six children, and some can have more than a dozen. Orcs or half-elves have more births, but the survival rate is not good, and it is about the same as humans.

The resources needed are the same, the population expansion capacity is the same, and it is strange if they live together and do not fight.

Li Anna is a sword cultivator, but the people cultivated by the system of Xiahe, the core talents, how can there be people who are not proficient in everything.

Even Smith is clear about political management and other things.

It may be difficult for him to let Smith run a country, and it is really stressful to let him be a grand duke like Xia He.

Another reason for the feather people to let down their guard is that Rhode Island is willing to sell weapons to the feather people. These weapons are still used by the army in Rhode Island.

Now the two sides get along quite happily, Yuren handed over some beans and jade as money, and Ma Long's side asked the legendary mage to personally cast magic on these people from the parallel space, so that they could learn the lingua franca of the main world.

The Lord God continued to the north, the speed was still not fast, the floating icebergs had appeared, and in the past four or five days, the continent, or the extreme north, covered by ice, had been seen.

The ice-breaking ability of the main god has been useless, the robot went down to investigate, and found a good place outside the half-day voyage, where the ice is not so thick, and more than 100 meters below is frozen soil. The magician cast his magic and built a small port here.

The troops of the Feather People, who were also involved in the construction, mainly cooperated with the people of Musis, and built a small base on land.

Batteries are set up at the base, so if you encounter a large enemy, cover it with heavy artillery, and the main god can easily escape.

In this kind of place, which is frozen all year round, it is very easy to build tall walls.

However, unlike other places, in the Far North, the entire base, most of which can be sealed with ice. And the strength of the ice can be improved by magic.

Elsewhere, the cost of maintaining magical ice is too great to be worth it at all due to the temperature.

In the Far North, this problem is no longer a problem.

At the four corners of the base, tall ice towers were built, although the diameter was dozens of meters, in fact, the internal space was not much. At the top is the lookout position, where mutant builds are arranged to be used as sentry posts with large magic muskets.

At this time, Li Anna was also on an ice tower, and beside her, standing was Yuren Lennon.

"Actually, if you go all the way south, the temperature will get higher and higher, and if you go north, it will be so terrible. ”

On Lennon's wings, the feathers flickered slightly, and his vision, even if it didn't reach the legendary level, could easily see a few miles away.

In the distance, on the ice field, a snow-white fox was running briskly.

What a beautiful creature, with only one pair of eyes, blue, like a jewel.
