Volume 10 Zion, the first capital in the world 17 It's been a long time, Warcraft Forest! 02
Xu Zheng nodded, Haze and Iliqi had told him about this. For example, the imperial capital of Zion, there are only a few hills outside the city, Xu Zheng has been there once or twice, and in terms of mineral deposits, he has not found anything important on them. It is only known that the stone on the mountain produces ordinary mountain stones that can be used to build houses, and a small amount of pumice stone that can be used for filtration, and there are some places at the foot of the mountain that produce clay, and there are no metal deposits at all. Xu Zheng also vaguely remembered that Bruce said that other places in Cheng'an seemed to be similar to this. On the one hand, this geographical environment makes Cheng'an have a large amount of arable land that can be used for reclamation, and on the other hand, it is also destined to have very few mineral deposits that can be excavated in Cheng'an. It's easy to understand that Cézanne would value the cave of Caslo in this way, there are enough of them, and the only ones must be held firmly in his hands.
Cézanne was still annoyed and said, "When Dane was here, it was better, and the treasury was full of money, which could pay for the capital consumption of the Carlos mine. There were 634 miners, and there were more than 5,000 guards from top to bottom, that is, 6,000 mouths, and the cost of each day was staggering. ”
Kun Xiang interjected idly: "If I'm not right, it's iron ore, right? It is also accompanied by Rockwell ferroplasma and a small amount of devil iron." Output and consumption are more likely to result in income. ”
"Devil Iron?" Xu Zheng didn't understand. After asking for a while, he learned that the devil iron in Quincy's mouth was a magnet substance. The people of the Aris continent could not understand the nature of this mineral to attract other iron gold coins, and did not understand how the power of this attraction came from, but felt that it was as inexplicable as the source of the devil's power, so they gave it the name of devil iron.
Cézanne smiled wryly: "That's not what I said. In previous years, it was more money than expenses to manage it, but now the situation is slowly reversed. ”
Xu Zheng raised his eyebrows, and his thoughts were like electricity, and he thought of the reason, and said: "Is it that with mining, its reserves are getting smaller and smaller?"
Cézanne also did not hide from Xu Zheng and Quincy. Acknowledging this, he added: "Its reserves are indeed getting smaller and smaller. Nowadays, the amount of useful parts of the ore is getting smaller and smaller. It has become chicken ribs, obviously gnawing on no meat, Cheng'an can't give it up yet. ”
"Why?" Xu Zheng didn't understand.
Quincy said: "It's not easy, although its ore content is getting lower and lower, it can continue to be mined." For Cheng'an, the scarcity of mineral reserves makes it necessary to continue mining until it is finished one day. It's like chicken ribs. Although there is little meat, there is a thin layer of skin attached to it, and until there is nothing else to gnaw on, it is still necessary to gnaw on it. In addition, there is also a country-to-country face problem, which is fought over by both sides, from fighting for mineral deposits to fighting for face. This means that your imperial uncle is difficult to ride a tiger. No matter how dangerous and painful it is to ride on the back of a tiger, you can only ride it and not let people. ”
Cézanne let out a long sigh and took a sip of his glass, indicating that Quincy was not wrong at all.
Xu Zheng looked at him sympathetically. I kind of wanted to tell him that there was a mineral deposit near Orson Manor, and that the dwarves were mining there. Then I thought that Aosen Manor and Cheng'an were far away from thousands of rivers and mountains, and it was really far away that water could not quench the thirst of the near. I had to shut up.
Quincy took a leisurely sip of wine and said lightly: "In my opinion, I'm not a fan of the authorities." There was no need to keep the broken mine that had been mined, so let it be for them. ”
Cézanne looked up, looked at Quincy, and said categorically, "No!"
Then he slowed down and explained: "Of course I have to keep the inheritance left to me by my eldest brother! It is also the property left to me by my eldest brother, not to mention that it still has output, and in the current shortage of mines in Cheng'an, I have to gnaw on even chicken ribs. ”
Quincy smiled and said, "You forgot one thing. ”
"What's the matter?"
Quincy put down her glass, her left index finger tapping on the edge of the table for a while, as if thinking about something. Finally, he made up his mind and said: "Originally, I planned to keep it for myself, but I don't know why my ambition is gradually fading now, and I can't raise any interest in competing for hegemony, so I'll tell you." ”
Cézanne looked at him puzzled: "What the hell are you talking about?"
Quincy smiled mysteriously, and although he said softly, he said like a shock: "Phantom Forest Warcraft Forest!"
"Huh?"
"Ahh
The former voice was made by Xu Zheng, and the latter was Cézanne. The former was confused, the latter was too surprised.
Cézanne's eyes lit up, and he said quickly: "Are you crazy?! You dare to fight the idea of that forbidden land of mankind?!"
Quincy smiled slightly, and the smile was indescribably flamboyant and confident: "I've just been beating its idea!"
Cézanne calmed down, and said in a slightly mocking tone: "I know you are bold, but I still underestimate your guts. As much as I admire your guts, I can't help but want to hit you. Is the Forest of Illusions a place where humans can enter? Yes, every year, there are people who take advantage of the craze to hunt for cores, but how many people have set foot on one-tenth of it? I dare to say this, if it is divided into ten levels, I don't believe that anyone can enter the first three layers of it! What is there? There are no people, all of them are demonic beasts! There are also many mysterious and powerful demonic beasts, not to mention the ninth order, that is, I will never doubt the existence of a super-rank! There is no legend that there are dragons living in it! With my father Rex's Juggernaut strength, he only dared to go deep into the first three layers of that place when he explored that place and had to retreat. If you dare to fight it, you will seek death!"
Quincy was silent for a moment and said, "I am indeed looking for death, and I have sent many people to find death. These people range from skilled swordsmen and mages to thieves who have little combat skills but are proficient in stealth detection. They went to death one after another, and finally I broke through to the first four layers. Just by the first four floors that I knew, I found a lot of good things. Because humans can't set foot there, it's a completely untapped treasure, and the monsters don't need those things, so why can't they be used by us?"
Cézanne sneered and said, "I'm afraid that I have the heart to hope for luxury, but I don't have the life to enjoy it." I'm ambitious and greedy, but I'm sensible and won't do anything beyond my ability. I've heard rumors about the Forest of Illusions, and I know that it's a treasure land. But I know that the idea of fighting it is to find a way to die, and I will not be greedy enough to try to get involved with it. I have relatives, I have my own Cheng'an, I am involved in many people, I am not only living for myself, I am not a mediocre regent. ”
Cézanne straightened his waist, and a generation of emperor-like anger erupted, looked straight at Quincy, and said without hesitation: "Quincy, this idea you want to use me is too superficial!"
Quincy held up a finger and shook it, "No, no, no, I didn't take advantage of you." Use your soldiers or your people to die for me? I know very well that they can't even get into the first two floors. Just letting people die and not reaping the slightest benefit is not my Quincy style. What's more, if I have a way to get benefits from the Phantom Forest, why should I fake others?" smiled faintly: "Although I don't care about anything now, but do you think I am like a lack of people? Borrowing from others not only has no benefit, but also creates the risk of news being revealed, with my wisdom, I will not do such a stupid thing." ”
Cézanne frowned and said, "Even if you don't dare to touch it yourself, why do you have to tell it to me?" The people who can live and come and go freely in the Phantom Forest have not yet been born in this Aris continent, even if it is a treasure there, we can only drool at it and stare at it dryly. I think it's not just me who thinks so, but you too. Otherwise, you would have kept it and now said that I listened, and your methods must be no worse than mine. ”
Quincy smiled again and said, "Who said that no one can come and go alive in the Forest of 100,000 Demonic Beasts? Haha!
Cézanne's hair was windless, and the emperor's momentum burst out and was forcibly suppressed by himself, he secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and asked astringently: "...... Who?"
Quincy spoke mysteriously, and Xu Zheng listened to it very vigorously, as if listening to some wonderful storytelling joke, and I wished he could continue to talk about it. Now that I heard that he was here, I really wanted to reach over and open his mouth so that he could continue. Hearing Cézanne's question, he subconsciously wanted to ask who was coming, such a fork, who could be at ease in that forbidden place of human beings. But as soon as Xu Zheng's mind moved, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide.
The 100,000 Demonic Beast Forest, known as the forbidden land for human beings, is it a dead place for others to be close to the living, but for themselves, it is a private backyard where you can go and go when you want, and even if you want to rebel and poke a hole in the sky, it is a big thing for you...... Maybe those untold numbers of all kinds of demonic beasts will help him stab together......
Xu Zheng's scalp was numb for a while, and he secretly took the empty wine glasses of Quincy and Cézanne to refill the wine and planned to sneak away. But when he saw Quincy's eyes dazzled and smiled, he couldn't move under his feet as if he had taken root.
Immediately, Cézanne's enlightened eyes also looked over, his eyes widened in an instant, and the two eyeballs didn't seem to turn anymore, and they would roll out of the window and fall to the ground at any time. Being stared at by Cézanne's eyes made Xu Zheng even more like his head was crawling with lice, and he was itching uncomfortably, and he intuitively felt that he was a lamb targeted by a hungry wolf.
"Hey, hey...... This one...... Hey, hey, hey. Xu Zheng scratched his scalp and laughed dryly for a long time, closed his eyes, and said resignedly: "That person is me...... I am from the vast forest sea...... Belch...... That is, the 100,000 Warcraft Forest you are talking about, the savages who came out of the Forest of Illusions......"
