Chapter 70: (Hire the Bears)
Chu Hao and the others appeared at the edge of the savage forest with two holy beasts, which was the territory of the bear clan of the Orc Empire.
The overall economy of the Orc Empire is poor, but each is a warrior, each is brave and good at fighting, and when it comes to the battlefield, it is definitely one of the top three human races.
Although the orcs belong to the half-orcs, but after tens of thousands of years of precipitation, they have taken off a lot of orc habits, and the current orcs have tended to the human race, so the orc empire belongs to the territory of the human race, not the management of demon beasts.
The intelligence of the orcs is not as good as that of the human race, and the main life is to live by hunting in the mountains, and many orcs do not even have an iron weapon in their homes, because they do not know how to do business, and only a few fox people know how to do business.
The territory of the bear clan is very large, if you follow the area of the kingdom, there are at least three kingdoms in size, this is only one of the territory of the bear clan in the orc empire, but the location here is remote, there is no food production, so the life is relatively poor.
Chu Hao looked at the city of the bear clan below in the air, the city wall here was built taller than that of the human race, Chu Hao made a preliminary estimate that the city wall here was at least 100 meters high, and the thickness was only more than 20 meters.
Chu Hao admired the strength of the bear people, they were able to build such a magnificent city wall, Chu Hao suddenly had a plan, he was ready to hire the bear people, go back to build the city wall for himself, and then give them iron and gold coins and grain in exchange for their labor.
Compared with the human race, orcs are more short-tempered, more straightforward in thinking, never beat around the bush, have something to say, and will not play tricks.
But among the orcs, there are two exceptions. Among them, the fox clan and the cat clan, these two races are relatively small in the orc empire, and the cat clan has no strong people, but the fox clan is different, the great prophet of the orc empire is generally from the fox clan, because the fox clan knows some spiritual perception, has quick thinking, and can predict some future things.
The prophet of the Orc Empire, is religious. Status in the hearts of orcs. Definitely not inferior to the orc emperor, the empire is the prophet and the emperor at the same time to manage the orc empire, so the imperial power and religion coexist.
After Chu Hao had an idea, he came directly to the sky above the City Lord's Mansion. Fall in front of the gate of the city lord's mansion. Asked Zhou Xinzu to hand over his own greeting post.
There were four guards in front of the gate of the city lord's mansion. These four guards were covered in black hair and were as strong as black bears. In his hand, he pressed the steel knife.
Seeing Zhou Xinzu come forward, he suddenly said angrily: "Get out, this is not the place where you came, the City Lord's Mansion here is also the home of our patriarch, hurry up and open this place, otherwise I will eat you." ”
The appearance of the bear clan is indeed powerful, it looks fierce and domineering, with four fangs on its mouth, a strong physique, a strong body, black fur, and sharp claws on its hands that look chilling.
Although he has a fierce appearance, it has a deterrent effect on some ordinary people, but for Zhou Xinzu, the guard of the bear clan can be pinched to death with one finger.
Zhou Xinzu did not stop at the guard's warning, but came to the guard, handed Chu Hao's greeting post, and said, "Our sect master, come to visit the old patriarch of the bear clan, please give me a message." ”
Although the guards of the bear clan are more short-tempered, they also know a lot of human rules, and the people who can send the worship post are not simple characters, and they reached out to take the worship post, they didn't know the text on it, and asked curiously: "You are from that force, how can I reply to the patriarch?"
Zhou Xinzu said: "You just say, Xuanwu Sect Master Chu Hao asks to see!" The guard who took the post of worship muttered, "Chu Hao, Xuanwu Sect?" Then he seemed to remember something, stared at the big eyes, and asked in surprise: "Is that Chu Hao who can tame the holy beast?"
As for taming the holy beast, Zhou Xinzu certainly knew that now not only Chu Hao could tame the holy beast, but he could also tame the holy beast. Zhou Xinzu nodded and said, "Yes, it's my master." ”
Zhou Xinzu, as the ancestor of the empire, was very familiar with the affairs of the secular world, reached out and took out a few gold coins, handed them to the four guards, and said, "Take it and buy some food for the brothers." ”
The guards who held the worship post in their hands did not receive Zhou Xinzu's gold coins, and the other three guards directly took the gold coins in their hands and were about to pick them up, but the guards who took the worship posts scolded him: "Give him back the money, do you know who they are? They are Chu Hao, the beast taming master we worship, how dare you collect their money? Hurry back." ”
After the guard with the prayer post finished speaking, he ran directly into the city lord's mansion, came directly to the main hall, came to an old man, knelt down on one knee and said, "I have seen the patriarch." "Go up to Chu Hao's prayer post, and then exit the door, waiting for the patriarch's orders.
The old patriarch looked at the name on the worship post, and when he saw that it was Chu Hao of the Xuanwu Sect, he immediately got up and said, "Where are the people and gods?"
The guard immediately replied, "Just wait outside the door." The old patriarch said happily: "Take me to meet him quickly, and lead the way ahead." ”
The guards took the old patriarch and went straight to the gate of the city lord's mansion, the old patriarch sold the gate in a few steps, looked at Chu Hao and Zhou Xinzu, and there was a small sun-eating holy beast next to him, and immediately asked, "May I ask which one is Chu Hao?"
Chu Hao stepped forward and bowed and said, "It's Chu Hao below, I came to disturb the old patriarch Qing Xiu today, and I hope you will forgive me." ”
The old patriarch smiled and said, "It is the honor of our bear clan that you can come, how can there be any disturbances, come, let's go in and talk." ”
The moment he walked into the gate with Chu Hao, the old man looked at the eclipse sun, frowned, and secretly said in his heart, he was worthy of being a master of beast taming, and the mounts around him were all high-level holy beasts.
Several ethnic groups in the Orc Empire, the clansmen are all in the late stage of the Holy Rank or the peak, and the Patriarch of the Bear Clan is no exception, after his own investigation, the Eclipse Sun already has the strength of the late stage of the Holy Beast! But the old patriarch did misjudge the level of the Eclipse Sun, because the Eclipse Sun Breath is indeed strong, but the strength is only intermediate.
After a few people came to the hall, the old patriarch smiled and said, "I don't know if Sect Master Chu came to me today, what does it take me to cooperate?"
Chu Hao secretly said in his heart, on the way here, I heard that the orcs have a straightforward personality, and just arrived here, before he could speak, he asked me what I meant, is this too direct!
But when people asked, they couldn't help but answer, so they had to smile and said: "Old patriarch, I came today, there are two things to do, the first I have a chamber of commerce, called Tianbao Chamber of Commerce, some time ago, because a batch of goods worth 800 million was robbed, and the snow lotus was finally investigated, so this time I came mainly to investigate the traces of the snow lotus." ”
Chu Hao was about to continue talking, but was suddenly frozen by the old patriarch's expression, and the old patriarch of the bear clan asked in surprise: "Eight hundred million goods have been robbed!"
In the orcs, hundreds of millions of gold coins are completely astronomical, and in the entire bear clan, the annual income is less than 100 million, and there are 800 million in a business, how not to surprise the old patriarch!
The old patriarch asked with a smile, "Sect Master Chu came here to ask us to help?" Chu Hao shook his head and said, "That's not what I mean, I can handle this matter." ”
Chu Hao thought about it for a while, and didn't know how to speak, after all, Chu Hao was not a material for doing business, and he didn't move at all about business, and he didn't know how to operate it when it came to employment.
A little embarrassed, he was discovered by the old patriarch and asked: "Sect Master Chu, if you have something to say, we orcs are straight, just say anything." ”
Chu Hao smiled and said, "Your Excellency Patriarch, I came here this time to prepare to hire your clansmen. The old patriarch pondered Chu Hao's words and asked, "This hire, tell me how to hire it, we have some business with your human race, and we are generally hired to transport goods." ”
Chu Hao continued: "After my understanding, the bear clan is also a powerful race in the orc empire, so I want the bear clan to hire and build a city in my territory for a long time, I came here for the first time, and found that the city you built is very strong, so I want to hire you to build a city, you said that the matter of transporting goods, I can arrange for the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce to hire the bear clan, you can rest assured, and you bear clan can also live in my territory, I guarantee your safety and provide you with a free place to live." Provide you with iron tools, food and resources, and we can also collect the meat of the demon beasts hunted in your clan, or we can sell it, and we will divide the money evenly when the time comes. ”
The old patriarch asked in surprise, "You can collect our demon beast meat and provide us with food and grain, as well as iron tools, is this true?"
Chu Hao nodded and said: "I know that there are some rules in the human race, it is forbidden to do iron business with orcs, but I have no one here to manage it, and I will not pay attention to them, I can provide food and iron tools, but you must exchange your people for it, for example, you send someone to build a city for me, after a city is built, how much food I provide to you, how many iron tools I provide to you, and the specific matters of employment, I can arrange for my eldest brother to come here to talk, or the old patriarch can come to my territory to have a look."
I can collect your monster meat, and then we will take it out and sell it, so that your people can exchange it for food and iron tools, and it will also increase your hunting speed and reduce your hunting casualties. ”
A bunch of temptations, waiting for the old patriarch to decide, the old patriarch smiled happily: "Okay, this matter is settled! But my clan has a lot of people, in addition to the 500,000 troops in our bear clan, there are also 100 million clansmen, all of whom can provide you with a way to hire." ”
The figure of 100 million is indeed very large, but Chu Hao has the ambition to eat it, Chu Hao smiled and said: "Old patriarch, you can tell me the number of gold coins, I will hire 10 million people for this 100 million people, how much does it cost to hire them in a year? ”
Hearing Chu Hao's tone so big, the old patriarch thought about the annual income of his clan, the annual income of the clan was only tens of millions of gold coins, if the other party hired 10 million people to leave, the other party would definitely choose young and strong clansmen, so he had to call Chu Hao all the annual income of the clan, and then said: "You give 100 million gold coins a year, this number is not much, right?"
The cost of 100 million is nothing to Chu Hao, but it is indeed astronomical for the bear clan, the annual income of the entire bear clan is less than 100 million gold coins, and it also solves the problem of food and housing for 10 million people, although this 100 million gold coins cannot completely protect the food problem of the people, but taking out the demon beast meat in exchange for food and iron tools can also keep the life of the clan, and there will be no starvation!
