Chapter Forty-Six, Trouble and Helpers

War requires the consumption of a large amount of materials, military rations, ordnance, medicines...... All of this costs money, and the saying that "when a cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold" is not only to say that war can bring huge profits, but also to say that war costs are extremely high.

Yunero and the others are not short of money, and there are many ways for the time-travelers to make money, and their choice is smuggling - with an inventory that can transport a large number of items, and a golden combination of city return and human cannons, Yunero, Skye, Mandu, and Lana can make a lot of money in just over a month.

If this is in the game, it's just an ordinary "running business", and as long as the game manager doesn't come to you for trouble, it's not a problem to use bugs to make money. But reality is not a game, all goods have to be produced by people, and many things are actually produced so much every year. After being swept around like this, the smuggling industry in at least a dozen cities has been dealt a heavy blow - there is no goods, no money can be made, isn't it a heavy blow.

So they have made a lot of enemies because of this, and even if they are not the most ruthless among the charlatans, they are already close to that level. For Yunero and the others, who snatched their food, they hated them to the core, and tried to take revenge more than once.

For example, this anti-lizardman coalition has more than one smuggling organization behind it to help and help. If it weren't for the role of these charlatans acting as lubricants and peacemakers, how could those guys who usually have a lot of grudges easily unite?

Of course, there are more powerful characters besides these smuggling organizations who are helping the anti-lizardman coalition, and that's another matter.

The smuggling organization is powerful, and they are not only able to help unite the anti-lizardfolk coalition, but also cause problems for the lizardmen. Now, for example, a chamber of commerce that provides curative drugs contacted by Yunero has said that there is a problem with the supply of goods, and they cannot fulfill the contract, and they are willing to pay according to the contract, but they can't get the goods out.

This kind of thing is not strange, but ...... Something similar has happened more than once in recent times!

"If they don't sell it, forget it, let's not go out and buy it. Lana said very unhappily, "Don't look at what we come from! Think we can't buy things in the South China Sea, so we won't fight? Big deal, let's go to the North to buy them! The old lady doesn't believe those smuggling rats, and she can even stretch her claws to Leighton in the ice and snow!"

Panda nodded, this was indeed a solution to the problem.

Yunero shook her head and sighed, "The problem is not the goods, but the attitude—judging from the attitude of these chambers of commerce, it is clear that they are already leaning towards the other side. ”

"So what? As long as we win, will they still be able to live with the money?" said Mandu.

Skye, who didn't talk much, suggested from another direction: "It's better to ...... Shall we assassinate the leaders of some smuggling organizations?"

The panda nodded again, and he thought it was a good idea. It's too troublesome to fight wits or something, but in comparison, fighting power is much simpler. Isn't there a famous saying that "violence doesn't solve the problem, but it can eliminate it"?

Yunero shook her head again: "If we want to gain a foothold in the South China Sea, we always have to have relations with all sides." It's easy to kill someone, but the trouble that comes with killing is not simple. We're not afraid of killing people, but ordinary lizardmen are afraid. If all forces unite and attack the lizardmen, the loss will be too great!"

Everyone sighed and frowned. The panda can't help but sympathize with Yunero - it's not easy to be the boss!

Fortunately, life is not only bad news after all, and the next day they got a good news - several chambers of commerce with good relations with the merfolk have joined forces to prepare a large number of war materials and are willing to sell them at a low price.

According to the tradition of war, a price increase of four or fifty percent in the face of war is considered a conscience price, and it is not uncommon for it to rise to two or three times. These chambers of commerce are willing to provide affordable materials, and this friendship is really extraordinary!

Yune was overjoyed and immediately arranged for someone to receive it. He pondered for a moment and asked if the panda was interested.

"Me?" Panda was stunned for a moment, "I don't know how to do business." ”

"But you can fight. "The business has actually been negotiated, and now I need someone who can fight and escort the goods back safely." ”

"I can go too. Skye said.

"You're also going to train lizardmen marksmen!" Yunero shook her head, "The lizardmen shooters are our traditional class, and if we can get them on the battlefield and get enough results, it will make the people even happier—this class is where the lizardmen once were." So you need to sit here and do your training work. ”

Skye sighed and stopped talking.

"Can I find a few helpers?" asked Panda, "I'm afraid that there is more than one ship for that shipment, and I can't take care of it alone—even if there is only one ship, I can't take care of all of them, and I must need helpers." ”

"Since this matter is left to you, it is up to you to decide. Yunero smiled, "I'm only responsible for full support on my side, and I'll do my best to provide whatever money or manpower I need - but to be honest, there aren't many talents among the lizardmen, so I can only send you some adventurers or merfolk." ”

"Okay, arrange some for me, especially the mermaids. Panda said, "Also, I'm going to ask Gree and them for help, is that okay?"

Yunero hesitated for a moment and said: "Ge Li has his own business, I didn't contact him before, just because I was afraid of causing him trouble - he is not like you, you usually act on the mainland, and basically do not come to the South China Sea, but he is also active in the South China Sea, if I get into trouble, it will be a little bad for him." ”

"So how about I find some people who are also active on the mainland?"

"Of course no problem!"

Panda nodded, and then contacted Liu Daoqing.

"Liuyu pot, what have you been busy with lately?"

"I designed a cement kiln in the territory, and I failed to build it three times, and I don't know what the problem is. Liu Daoqing quickly replied, "Damn Lao Bai!" He obviously learned this, but he didn't want to come to me as a technical guide, and said, 'I've long washed my hands, and now I'm a cultural person' or something...... On average, he updates less than one chapter a month, and he deserves to be called a cultural person?!"

You can hear that he is very angry.

Panda smiled: "Then are you interested in going out and relaxing?"

"What are you doing?" Liu Daoqing asked, "Does it take a long time? A few days or a week is enough, if it takes a few months, it really can't be done, my territory is not very open." ”

"Don't worry, it won't be long. The panda said, "How about coming to the South China Sea and participating in a small war of 2,000 men?"

Liu Daoqing asked: "War? Who is with whom?"

"Lizardmen and anti-lizardmen coalition, of course we're on the lizardmen's side. ”

"Okay, I'll arrange the affairs of the territory, and I'll be there tomorrow. ”

Panda turned off the private chat and smiled at Yunero: "Look, the helper has been found." ”
