Chapter 532 Land Inspection, Inspection, and Negotiation of Conditions
Gently placing the letter from the Wang family on the table, Jiang Xingchen exhaled softly and said in a low voice: "I see!"
After reading the letter, he finally understood the reason for the auction of the land by the Great Departure Kingdom. Although the climate of the thousands of square miles of land is warm and the terrain is flat, there is a very big drawback, that is, there is no vitality there.
In this world where vitality fills the heavens and the earth, such a place is really full of all kinds of weirdness, and it is difficult to understand. And this area is also known as the Cursed Land by the high-ranking of the Great Departure Kingdom.
No nobleman was willing to take over this area, because it was impossible to cultivate normally there, even if it was a business family, it had to be supported by force, and not being able to cultivate meant consuming more Yuan Stones. Nowadays, the resources of Yuanshi are decreasing, and it is not easy to get them, and if the consumption is increased, no family can stand it.
Another important point is that nothing grows well in this area. Whether it's grain, cotton, or whatever. There are also no plants except a few species of trees and weeds.
Therefore, this land has always been an ornament in the Great Departure Kingdom, and it has no role at all.
This time, Xingchen Ling held an auction, and the right minister of the Dali Kingdom proposed that the idea of auctioning this land was immediately supported by the Dali Emperor.
It's just that the emperor couldn't have imagined that this piece of land could be auctioned for a high price of 150 million!
"Cursed Land, interesting!" Jiang Xingchen thought for a moment, took out the topographical map of the area from the cabinet, and spread it on the table.
On the map, this area is located in the southernmost part of the kingdom of Dali. But it's a bit easterly. Further south, there are lofty mountains and steep mountains, and the terrain is quite treacherous, with precipices and cliffs. The quagmire is deep, and there are countless beasts and even demon beasts in it, even worse than the environment on the periphery of the vast mountains.
When he went to the Southern Wilderness with the old man, he took a road to the west, avoiding this large mountainous area. In fact, anyone who goes to the Southern Wilderness. I won't go this way, because I can't go at all.
And to the east of the Cursed Lands, a hundred miles away is the vast sea.
After a long time. Jiang Xingchen put away the topographic map and suddenly laughed. This land was a cursed land to others, but it was exactly what he needed. Can it be planted and put aside, such a large area is full of weeds. At least there is no problem with farming. Other than that. If the paper mill is placed here, the supply of raw materials will be more aspect, and the output will be larger. And more importantly, it's not far from the sea.
"If you can find limestone, it would be great if you could find limestone! There are so many mountains over there, it shouldn't be hard to find......"
"There is also the problem of protection, those thousand slaves~ are good people, but can they believe it. What if someone has bad intentions...... Or, go back and divide the King Kong ants into a batch. The population here is saturated...... But there's no vitality over there, and it seems that it will cost a lot of yuan stones! Hey, it's money again, I'm afraid Grandpa Fu will have to nag again......"
When Jiang Xingchen was thinking about it, Han Xiaowu walked in from outside the door and said, "Sir, those thousand slaves~Li, are you going to take a look, you have been raising them for more than half a month!"
Jiang Xingchen put down his thoughts about the land and asked with a smile: "How is it, have you observed any abnormalities in them these days?"
"I didn't notice anything abnormal, but they all seemed to be nervous!" replied Han Xiaowu.
"It's normal to be nervous about being sold so far away from overseas...... However, it is really strange to gather so many young adults at once, and most of them still know how to build ships!" Jiang Xingchen touched his chin and said with a deep groan.
"Sir, these people are very familiar with each other, as if they have known each other for a long time! I have observed carefully, although they are silent, but they have eye contact!"
"Oh?" Jiang Xingchen frowned, and asked again: "Then have you noticed that there is no leader among these people!"
"I haven't found it yet!" Han Xiaowu shook his head.
"Then observe for a few more days, you must pay attention!In addition, carefully check whether the cultivation of these slaves ~ subordinates is really sealed, and whether there is any omission......" Hearing Han Xiaowu say that these slaves ~ subordinates are familiar with each other, he is even more careful, this is thousands of people, once there is a rebellion, it will definitely bring great losses to the star leader.
"Yes!" Han Xiaowu bowed in response, turned around and continued to observe those slaves according to Jiang Xingchen's instructions.
After Han Xiaowu left, Jiang Xingchen was ready to close the door and operate the formation. Since the last time he absorbed the poisonous ape Yuanjing, Jiang Xingchen had to cultivate the Poison Ape Yuanjing almost every day
Now he has felt that there is not much vitality in the Yuan Jing, and he hopes to absorb it as much as possible, which can help the study of the piano. He went to the research institute two days ago, and Xian Ning and Wanrou did not make much progress.
Wanrou is a little anxious, if the piano can't be studied, how to hold a celebration, it is impossible to make Bauhinia fans wait forever.
However, before Jiang Xingchen could change his breathing pattern, a rush of footsteps interrupted him.
It was Mo Hongxian who came this time, as soon as she entered the house, Mo Hongxian sat on the chair and said loudly: "Big brother, hurry up and get me a cup of tea, I'm dying of thirst!"
"Call me that again!" Jiang Xingchen's forehead jumped, and she was really speechless at the violent female man.
"Hurry up, I haven't stopped for seven or eight days!" Mo Hongxian urged.
When Jiang Xingchen saw this situation, he didn't care about the title problem, so he answered, turned around and walked out of the door and walked to the kitchen.
Mo Hongxian helped him check the cold iron mine. The deal can only be closed if the news is confirmed.
Mo Hongxian worked so hard and helped himself on a trip, of course he couldn't care about anything.
After a while, Jiang Xingchen put the brewed tea in front of Mo Hongxian, and then asked, "How is it, is the news true?"
"Hmm!" Mo Hongxian nodded and said, "The location is outside a valley in the vast mountains, as described, it is more than three hundred miles away from us...... But!"
"But what?" Jiang Xingchen asked.
"But you may lose money!" Mo Hongxian said regretfully: "The reserves of this cold iron ore are probably not worth 32 million, and there are almost no roads, and it is also a problem to transport them out!"
Jiang Xingchen smiled, shook his head and said, "As long as there is a mine, I don't sell it, I make it into a weapon and we use it ourselves." Now our territory is only somewhat usable, even if you add a few mercenary groups, and the new slaves~ there are only 1,300 people!"
"It's nothing if you think like this!" Mo Hongxian nodded, after all, cold iron is very rare, and if you buy it, you may not be able to buy it.
"Sister Hongxian, this time it's really hard for you!" Jiang Xingchen said with a smile.
"Don't fix all this, go back and make dumplings for me, I haven't eaten the dumplings you made for a long time!" Mo Hongxian waved his hand and said with a grin.
"No problem!" Jiang Xingchen nodded with a smile, and couldn't help but think of the situation in Hongyuan City, when Mo Hongxian opened his mouth and wanted to braid garlic.
After finishing the business, Mo Hongxian didn't stay long, and left after drinking tea.
As soon as she left on her front foot, Zhao Danqing came on her back foot, and when she entered the house, she shouted: "Brother Jiang, hurry up, make me a cup of tea, I'm dying of thirst!"
Jiang Xingchen was stunned for a moment, how could this guy have the same tone as Sister Hongxian, the two of them discussed it.
"Hurry up, I haven't stopped for seven or eight days!"
"I'll go, these two must have been discussed!"
Jiang Xingchen did not refuse Zhao Danqing's request, and Zhao Danqing also went out to help him check the news. It was the news that he spent a million citrine coins to buy a level 20 demon beast to hit the Sky Falcon.
"Brother, this news is true, the lair of the Rank 20 Sky Falcon is indeed on the periphery of Tianyan Mountain......! It's not easy to do!" Zhao Danqing sipped his tea and shook his head to make a bitter look.
"What's so hard to do?" Jiang Xingchen asked.
"That guy's lair is in the middle of the cliff, the wind there is very strong, and sometimes it is strong and sometimes weak, there is no pattern at all, it is not easy to blow it up with a grenade!" Zhao Danqing said.
"Who told you I'm going to kill it?" Jiang Xingchen asked in surprise.
"Uh!" Zhao Danqing was stunned: "Didn't you buy this news to hunt this Sky Falcon?"
"Hey!" Jiang Xingchen patted his forehead and said helplessly: "You don't want to think about it, we still have the meat and materials of a level twenty-five demon beast, why do I want a level twenty-five demon beast?"
"It's not a hunt...... Then what do you want to do?" Zhao Danqing asked suspiciously.
"Of course it's to catch and raise, how convenient it will be to take it out to catch rabbits in the future!" Jiang Xingchen said with a smile.
"......" Zhao Danqing was completely stupid, looking at Jiang Xingchen who didn't say anything for a long time, raising a level 20 demon beast to catch rabbits and play...... He didn't even know what words to use to describe it.
After a long time, Zhao Danqing swallowed his saliva and raised his thumb at Jiang Xingchen: "Brother, you cheat, I will accept it! However, if you want to catch the falcon, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult! That thing is too dangerous, the bluestone can be crushed, but I saw it with my own eyes, I was almost attacked by it on the top of the cliff!"
Jiang Xingchen smiled and suddenly asked, "Can you estimate the distance from the top of the cliff to the Sky Falcon's lair?"
"Uh!" Zhao Danqing was stunned again, and then shook his head: "I didn't pay attention to this, I knew that it was in the middle of the cliff!"
"Hehe......" Jiang Xingchen looked at Zhao Danqing and laughed, laughing so much that Zhao Danqing straightened his hair.
"Brother Jiang, you ...... What do you want to do?" Zhao Danqing felt his scalp tingle, and couldn't help but make a mistake backwards, and he couldn't even drink tea.
"Brother Zhao, you can run again......" Jiang Xingchen whispered.
"Don't go, resolutely don't go!" Zhao Dan stood up in a green manner.
"Don't worry, I guarantee you're not in danger!" Jiang Xingchen said with a smile.
"If there is no danger, I will not go!" Zhao Danqing's expression was stern, and his attitude was extremely resolute.
"A brand new comic! a new story guaranteed!"
Zhao Danqing's face was solemn, and he said with a straight face: "Don't use this to lure me...... Sue you, don't think I'm relieved without two comics!" (To be continued......)
