Chapter 382: Dan, Array
Compared to the ports of the Xuanfeng Continent, the relatively prosperous port of Shelter Island is completely insignificant,.!
In the entire Xuanfeng Continent, there are no less than ten large seaports, and there are countless ordinary seaports, but just this one seaport in front of him, the sea ships that appeared in front of Wang Ting's eyes were already dense, no less than thousands, thousands of sea ships, the smallest of which had a length of more than fifty meters, and the largest of which seemed not to be under the behemoth of the Lin family.
As the Lin family's sea ship entered a large wharf specially provided for them, the countless porters on the wharf all moved, and thousands gathered from all directions of the wharf, like ants, into the sea ship, carrying the goods carried in the sea ship and sending them to the vehicles that had been prepared long ago.
Among the sea ships, there were also a large number of swordsmen and boatmen, who walked out of the sea ships one after another, feeling the down-to-earth heaviness, Wang Ting looked at a glance, and found that there were no more than 12,000 people in the entire sea ship, which could not be seen on the sea boat, and when he got off the ship, the number of people actually exceeded five figures, which surprised him.
"Yue'er, I'm going to carry out the specific handover and inventory of the goods, and His Royal Highness will hand it over to you, don't neglect His Royal Highness. β
After getting off the boat, Lin Dong looked at a group of deacons of the Lin family who were coming towards several people, and turned his head to Lin Yue'er and said goodbye.
"Uncle Dong, rest assured, His Royal Highness Wang Ting is my master, and I naturally understand this. β
Lin Dong nodded, arched his hand at Wang Ting, and said with a slightly respectful expression: "Your Royal Highness, we will leave first, if there is anything, just tell Yue'er, as long as we can do it, we will definitely do our best." β
"I know, Your Excellency Lin Dong, please. β
Lin Dong said goodbye, and walked over to the deacons of the Lin family with several other demi-saints and the deacons on the sea boat.
"Master, there is a manor of our Lin family in front, let's rest in the manor for a day first, and tomorrow we will take the Fengshen ship in the manor to the family headquarters. β
Lin Yue'er stepped on the earth, and although her expression was full of joy like stepping on the ground, she did not neglect the newly recognized master next to her.
Wang Ting nodded, and followed Lin Yue'er on the dock indifferently, and on the road they were taking, there were dozens of swordsman-level masters who cleared the road in advance, so as not to let those ordinary mortals and porters collide with the nobles in front of them.
Lin Yue'er may indeed only be regarded as a second-echelon legendary swordsman in the family, but with the cultivation of the peak legendary swordsman at the peak of the true qi stage, if put it in the place, she is definitely a big man among the big people, as long as she is willing, it is easy to call on some followers to build a small and medium-sized city of her own.
In a flat place in the middle of the wharf, there was already a very ornate carriage waiting there, the whole carriage was not only paced by platinum with a layer of gold, but in the more conspicuous places, it was carved with extremely precious sky red jade with various statue patterns for embellishment, and the person responsible for pulling the carriage was a creature of the two lord-level beings, such powerful creatures, even if those swordsman-level masters saw it, they had to flash as far as they went.
Just from this carriage, you can see the Lin family's profound heritage in the Xuanfeng Continent.
But it's also true.
If the Lin family's background is not deep and the family business is not huge, how can they do business through the entire Xuanfeng Continent and further expand to other continents?
The carriage was covered with a thick blanket, this blanket was made from the softest feathers on the neck of the high-level flying beast Blue Feather Beast, just one tuft, the price had exceeded one hundred gold coins, a blanket, I am afraid that it was no less than twenty or thirty thousand gold coins, sitting on this blanket, although the two lord-level beasts pulled the carriage like a gallop, but the people inside did not feel any bumps.
In less than an hour, the carriage had stopped outside a huge manor.
This manor is said to be a manor, it is better to say that it is a castle built on the hillside, the whole manor not only has a city wall more than ten meters high, but also has arrow towers, shooting holes, battlements and other defensive facilities on the city wall, and the naked eye can see hundreds of swordsman-level experts patrolling the city wall, and behind the city wall, there are a large number of beautiful and gorgeous buildings, God knows how many strong people live in it, I am afraid that if it is replaced by the ordinary army of the Taixuan Kingdom, even if it is tens of thousands of people, it may not be able to knock down this castle.
"The heritage of this Lin family is really extraordinary, it is just a manor established outside, and it already has such power. β
When Wang Ting entered the manor, he naturally saw the strength of those guards clearly.
Ordinary guards, the worst are formal swordsmen, squad leader-level figures are even mid-level swordsmen, and the captain of the hundred-person team has high-level swordsmen, and even great swordsmen are cultivated, responsible for the chief and deputy commanders of the Gongwei Manor, needless to say, they are all served by swordsmanship masters.
Moreover, inside the manor, there are no less than five or six thousand people, these people are men, women, old and young, but without exception, they all have a certain amount of cultivation, even if some are teenagers, they have already entered the level of martial artists, and at critical moments, they can rush to the city wall as the combat power of the manor.
"Your Lin family, there are many such manors?"
After getting out of the carriage, Wang Ting asked loudly.
"This kind of manor? Every large seaport has one or two manors of this level, there are sixteen large ports in the entire Xuanfeng Continent, the number of manors is about twenty, and there are also medium-sized seaports, but the size of the manor is only about one-third of this manor, but the number should be about two hundred. β
"A third. β
One-third, on average, there are 2,000 people in each manor, that is to say, the members of the Lin family stationed in each harbor alone add up to no less than 600,000 people.
Sure enough, it's a big business.
"The empire of the Xuanfeng Continent will allow such a family to exist that can shake the foundation of the empire?"
Lin Yue'er knew that the royal court was from other continents, so she was not surprised that he asked this question, and patiently explained: "Master, Middle-earth is the continent in the outer circle of Middle-earth, in fact, it is basically the family, sect, and city lord in charge, although it is not without the existence of kingdoms and empires, but these kingdoms, In fact, a family is equivalent to a kingdom, like our Lin family, although it is a commercial family, but where our family headquarters is located, there are also four large cities and twelve small cities, and there are no less than 20 million people living in those cities, and the people living in these cities are all dependent on our Lin family, and they only need to be responsible to our Lin family and pay taxes to our Lin family, and there is no need to obey the orders and dispatches of any force at allγ β
"Family, sect, city lord......"
These royal courts had heard Li Changkong say before, and originally he thought that only Middle-earth was like this, and he didn't want even the other continents on the periphery of Middle-earth to follow this style of survival.
"But Master, don't underestimate our Lin family, thinking that our Lin family occupies a territory with a population of no more than 20 million, in fact, our Lin family's commercial power is all over every corner of the Xuanfeng Continent, and even the nearby continents have branches of our Lin family's firm, looking at the entire Xuanfeng Continent, our Lin family is definitely one of the largest forces. β
"I naturally believe that. β
Wang Ting smiled and nodded.
From the fact that Lin Yue'er, a legendary swordsman at the peak of his true qi, is only in the second echelon of the family's young life, it can be seen how profound the heritage of this Lin family is.
"Master, this is the courtyard we have arranged for you. β
While the two were talking, Lin Yue'er had already taken the royal court to a large courtyard, the whole courtyard was full of bird singing huΔ incense, and the framing was extremely exquisite, and there was almost no trace of man-made on this mounting, as if everything was natural, full of a natural and harmonious beauty.
Especially in the courtyard, Wang Ting could clearly feel the abnormality of the aura, and the aura in this courtyard was actually twice as large as that outside.
"Since this is just a branch of a port, and the arrangement of the Spirit Gathering Array uses a second-level Nine Heavens Jade, not a real Spirit Jade, the effect of the Small Spirit Gathering Array is not significant, I hope the master will forgive me. β
"Nine Heavens Jade, Small Spirit Gathering Array, Isn't the Spirit Gathering Array coming from the building that came down by completing a special temple mission? Nine Heavenly Jade Arrangement Spirit Gathering Array? Could it be that you have already conquered the technology that has been passed down in this temple?"
"Yes, Master, one hundred and thirty years ago, a sage in Middle-earth named Dao Yuanyi, after unremitting efforts, finally peeked into the mystery of the Spirit Gathering Array and overcame the difficult problem of the Spirit Gathering Array, making the Spirit Gathering Array one of the one hundred and sixty-seven magical formations that human beings could master. β
Lin Yue'er was not surprised by Wang Ting's common-sense question at all, and explained patiently: " It's a pity that in terms of level division, the Spirit Gathering Array belongs to the seventh-order advanced formation, and some of the changes and details involved in it are only those who peep into the strong people at the level of sword intent, and then they can keep up, and then arrange it, even if the layout method of the Spirit Gathering Array has been circulated now, but there are still only a handful of formation mages who can arrange this formation, so what is circulating on the market now is a simplified version of the small Spirit Gathering Array, and this Spirit Gathering Array must rely on the spirit jade to be able to play a role. β
Speaking of this, Lin Yue'er's tone paused slightly: "Alchemy and refining array are currently one of the two most emerging professions in the Middle Earth Continent, the reason why the cultivation world in the Middle Earth World can be so prosperous is far more than other continents such as the Xuanfeng Continent, alchemists and array refining masters occupy a huge credit, the first to third order junior alchemists and refining array masters are better, if they reach the intermediate level of the fourth to sixth order, it will be terrible, not to mention others, just through divine grace- It is said that some peerless figures who have comprehended alchemy and alchemy to the seventh order, with the help of pills and formations, can greatly increase the hope of the legendary swordsman in the liquefaction stage to impact the sword saint, from this point, it can be seen how great the influence of senior alchemists and array refiners on those large forces is!"
