I became the ancestor of the blood clan

With his senior mage as the backing, the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce will no longer be exploited endlessly by greedy nobles like before, and it can develop better.

Moreover, the blood race has hundreds of mid-level mages, and half of them will be used to make magic items at that time, which will make the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce a lot of money.

The possession of a mage is a profession that everyone envies, not only because of the powerful power of a mage, but also because of its outstanding ability to make money.

Magic potions, magic scrolls, equipment enchants, etc. all require the power of magic.

And these industries are all huge profits, more profitable than arms.

The ancestor of the blood clan was arrogant and cold, and he would not use the blood clan to make money at all, not to mention that the blood clan was not short of money before.

But it’s different now. Farming requires a bottomless pit of funds. Sooner or later, the wealth accumulated by the blood clan will be spent. If you don’t plan ahead now, you will face the dilemma of breaking funds.

This is also the idea of ​​his preparing to train mage apprentices, but at this stage, he still needs to serve the great cause of farming that will start immediately, and the matter of making money will not start until everything is on the right track.

Not enough humans entered the castle, and all his thoughts were reflections on the lake.

After having at least tens of thousands of humans, the blood race can get rid of the dilemma of taking great risks every year to plunder humans outside the distant mountains.

Only then can it be regarded as truly taking destiny into one's own hands.

Moreover, in his plan, there are not only tens of thousands of humans stationed in the castle, but the fertile land behind can support tens of thousands of people.

After the initial embarrassment was resolved, Li De believed that the castle would definitely become a powerful force.

The potential of the blood race is not inferior to that of Green City, a city with a population of one million.

When he develops to this level, he doesn't need to worry about sand sculpture players who make trouble all day long.

After five mage apprentices escorted Laurent and the oak box full of Kimpuk out of the mage tower, Wei Na couldn't wait to come to Reed.

Those bright blue eyes could speak like a cuckoo bird in spring, staring straight at the master of the mage tower.

"Lord Li De, you just answered the magic question for everyone, didn't you?"

Looking at the envious light in the girl's beautiful blue eyes, Li De nodded slightly.

"Well, you, Karoo and Cohen, come with me to the study, I'm giving you a lesson"

The girl's eyes instantly narrowed into a crescent shape, and the joy in her heart overflowed heavily on her face.

And Kalu and Cohen, who had already gained a lot, were even more pleasantly surprised. They didn't expect that Mr. Li De would teach them alone.

Although the other mage apprentices are envious, they all have self-knowledge, and their talents are completely incomparable with the three.

"You don't have to be envious. Their level has already surpassed yours by a large margin. Work hard and try to catch up as soon as possible. Then I will give you individual tutoring."

These words instantly filled the faces of the group of mage apprentices with excitement.

"It's Master Li De"

"Don't worry, I will work hard"

"Thank you……"

Seeing the excited expressions, Li De nodded and walked towards the study.

Now that he has decided to train these apprentices, he should do his best. The sooner these apprentices become official mages, the more help he will have.

……

The efficiency of the blood race far exceeded Li De's expectations.

On the third day after returning to Green City, when Laurent was still running for a huge amount of food, Otis sent a message from the bat, and the cleaning of the southern area of ​​the castle was completed.

The cleared area can provide more than [-] human habitation, and they also dug out thousands of winter coats from the warehouse.

Li De was relieved to receive the news.

The preparatory work for the farming plan has been half completed, and now the plan can only be started after the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce has purchased a sufficient amount of wheat.

Of course, he won't wait until the 1800 Kimpuk is spent before proceeding to the next step. He only needs to purchase one-third of the grain to start the population plundering plan.

"Odis, quickly send 50 tribesmen to the south of the distant mountains, where the orc empire invaded, to investigate the news of the refugees. If you encounter a large number of refugees, you can send your tribesmen to follow.

Be sure to stay away from the main battlefield and avoid encounters with orc wyverns. "

On the snow-white letter paper, the standard mainland Chinese characters are written with a quill pen, a pictographic script that has nothing to do with Chinese characters.

Li De rolled up the paper and tied it in the special alchemy storage bag on the bat's stomach.

Fluttering~

The domesticated bat flew out of the Mage Tower through the half-open stained glass window after Li De let go of his hand and flapped its wings.

Looking down at Green City through the translucent stained glass window, Reed fell into deep thought.

Because of the invasion of the Orc Empire, there are more and more border refugees in Green City, which is hundreds of miles away from the border. It is foreseeable that the war on the border must be more exaggerated than in previous years.

Li De could clearly feel the tense atmosphere in the city these days, and there were several times more beggars and refugees on the streets than usual.

At this point in time, the blood race must be sent to collect information. When Otis finds out the news, the grain purchase of the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce will definitely be completed.

A two-pronged approach.

After the food reaches one-third of the reserves, the plan to plunder the refugees can begin.

His plan is simple and crude, which is to find refugees and bring back the refugees who lost their homes due to the war back to the castle.

Predatory population.

On weekdays, if the vampires plundered humans on a large scale, it would be a disaster if they were discovered... A vampire covered in alchemy materials is definitely the creature that mages are most willing to see.

But it's different now, the orc army has smashed the border, and no one cares about the disappearance of a group of refugees.

So this time period is a great time to expand the population. If you miss it, you may have to wait until the orcs invade again next year.

Because of the lack of food in winter, the orcs would invade the Nolan Empire every year, and after plundering enough food, they would return to the barren wasteland at the beginning of the next spring.

The wealthy and farming empire of Nolan has been regarded as a breeding ground by the orcs, and they come back to fetch food in winter.

However, because the orcs retreat every year, the Nolan Empire has little confidence in fighting the orcs, and those nobles are even more unwilling to fight the ferocious orcs for the civilians on the border...

Anyway, the orcs will retreat in the first spring. Since there is no loss of land, it has nothing to do with them.

And civilians living on the border have become victims, and this scene happens every year.

But I have to say that the land on the border is indeed fertile. Even if they are hit every year, the civilians on the border can always recover in the shortest time.

The population living on the border has also remained relatively stable.

It is precisely because of this historical background that Li De has the confidence to formulate this plan.

However, he could already foresee the issue of population. After the farming plan started, it would be a difficult point for the castle to worry about for a long time to come.

After all, plundering 5000 people is not the same concept as plundering 5 people.

And the number of people in the castle he planned is hundreds of thousands.

Chapter 26 Alex Chamber of Commerce

Alex Chambers.

As one of the founders of Green City, the history of the Alex Chamber of Commerce has been so long that all the nobles in Green City feel respect.

This chamber of commerce controlled by the Marquis Alex family of the Kingdom is one of the three largest chambers of commerce in Green City, controlling half of the grain, cloth, salt and weapons markets in Green City.

It can be said that the people of Green City cannot live without the products of the Alex Chamber of Commerce.

"A small chamber of commerce called Jinmai Chamber of Commerce wants to purchase large quantities of grain?

Enough to feed 10 people for a month?

Who is he?Why buy grain at this point in time? "

Winnie Alex's face was solemn, and her beautiful violet eyes shone with suspicion.

For the eldest daughter of the Alex family who has just taken over as the president of the Alex Chamber of Commerce, any abnormal business behavior is worthy of vigilance.

Especially in October, when the orcs invaded ahead of schedule and the long winter was about to enter, she had to think about this sensitive time point.

Rom Bernard looked admiringly at this girl who was known as the most beautiful tulip in Green City, with deep admiration in her eyes.

"President Winnie, it is understood that the Golden Wheat Chamber of Commerce has raised all the funds for a single ore business on the border, and also borrowed 200 gold pukes from the Green City Chamber of Commerce.

Because of the orc invasion, the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce was robbed of all its harvest on the way back to Green City.

As a result, the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce fell into a crisis of bankruptcy.

The senior mage in the Scarlet Mage Tower bought the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce that was about to go bankrupt three days ago.

And Laurent, a small character, certainly didn't have such a big deal, and this deal must have come from the order of the senior mage. "

Rom knew that Winnie never liked vague reports, so she found out all the information when she came.

After Laurent had Li De as his backer, he was full of confidence during this period of time. He walked a little bit erratically, and often advertised that he had the protection of the Scarlet Mage Tower in places like taverns.

So this kind of information is easy to inquire about.

Of course, this was also instructed by Li De. Making a fortune silently would not work in Green City, and an underground force without enough strength could bring down the chamber of commerce.

With a senior mage as a backer, even if someone wants to get the attention of the Jinmai Chamber of Commerce, he has to weigh it.

Winnie frowned even tighter. She had heard of Reed Kachar's name. When the Scarlet Mage Tower was built, she even participated in the Mage Tower completion banquet held by the Mage Association.

The mage who entered Green City three years ago has a good reputation among the nobles of Green City.

"Rom, do you know the mage Reed Kachar?"

Rom nodded enviously when he heard the name, and said with some emotion.

"Red Kachar is said to be the eldest son of a small noble family in a border town, and his whole family was buried in the flames of war because of the orc invasion.

The family territory was destroyed, and all the people were sacrificed under the butcher's knife of the orcs. Li De Kachar was forced to come to Green City.

Three years ago, Li De Kachar, who was only 22 years old at the time, had already become a level 9 intermediate mage, and was one step away from breaking through to become an advanced mage.

Three months after joining the Green City Mage Association, during a magic discussion in the Mage Association, Li De was promoted to a senior mage directly under the watchful eyes of hundreds of people after listening to Archmage Spark Russell's lecture on magic.

Archmage Spark was very happy, so he accepted Li De as a disciple in front of everyone. "

Born in a small nobleman, with outstanding magic talent, his family was destroyed, and he broke through to become a senior mage in a foreign land, and was appreciated by the archmage.

So many legendary factors make Reid Kachar a celebrity in Green City.

Although several years have passed, Winnie knew from Rom's strong envy that Li De was not an ordinary mage.

But it was also because of this that she felt strange.

Why did this senior mage who was said to only go out once a month and was completely obsessed with magic suddenly buy a chamber of commerce that was about to go bankrupt, and also bought enough food to feed 10 people for a month?

Is there something odd about this?

On the surface, the Alex Chamber of Commerce is just a Chamber of Commerce, but Winnie knows that secretly, the Alex Chamber of Commerce is responsible for providing food for the troops on the border.

This year, due to the invasion of the orcs, the food production on the border has dropped significantly. If Green City, which is the largest support on the border, also suffers from food shortages, then she, the head of the chamber of commerce responsible for military rations, will definitely be held accountable.

Therefore, she has to carefully check every large amount of grain transfer.

"President Winnie, I don't think it's a big deal. These mages who don't understand business should have heard about the reason for the border war, so they want to hoard a batch of food to make a fortune in winter."

Rom shook his head disapprovingly.

"The current grain price has reached a high point under our control. If the other party is willing to buy it, we can raise it even higher, and wait until the winter begins to release the inventory of the previous two years.

Believe me, this mage will taste the bitter fruit"

For the Alex Chamber of Commerce, which monopolized half of the food in Green City and was also responsible for providing military rations, raising food prices was nothing more than a word.

Winnie shook her head.

"No, it's not necessary, no matter what the purpose of this mage is, it's not our business.

You have to know that he is not only a senior mage, he is also a disciple of the archmage His Excellency Spark."

Rom nodded, with some hesitation on that handsome face.

"President Winnie, shall we agree to the purchase request of Jinmai Chamber of Commerce now?"

"No, I didn't say that"

At this time, Rom was a little bit crazy. This tulip, which has attracted the attention of outsiders, really made him hard to understand.

"President Winnie, I don't understand what you mean, can you speak more clearly?"
