Lords of All: The Moving Castle of the Dead

Li Ziyu nodded.

Liu Xingxing slowly turned his neck towards Zhang Peng.

With a calm face on his face, Zhang Peng pointed at Li Ziyu and betrayed his teammates without hesitation, "Go to the boss. The boss won't let me talk."

Liu Xingxing's lips trembled and he howled like a mourner, "Boss, my dear boss, why didn't you tell me when you went to the grassland~~~~"

"Shut it!" Li Ziyu clenched his fist, and Liu Xingxing immediately shut up and looked at him pitifully, "Tsk, that's why I didn't tell you. I just went to have a look. I don't plan to enter the grassland now. There are plenty of opportunities, let’s settle things here first.”

Liu Xingxing sighed, his heart yearning for treasure hunting was restless.

But the boss has said so. What can he do? He can only pray that things in the wasteland will be over soon.

I really want to go to the grassland and have a look early.

Liu Xingxing calmed down his restless heart and asked curiously, "Boss, are those weird-looking undead outside from the grassland? They look like ants."

Li Ziyu nodded and said with a smile, "You are right, those guys outside are Ant-Man. I raided two Ant-Man nests to get so many Ant-Man."

Seeing that both Liu Xingxing and Zhang Peng were full of curiosity, Li Ziyu told them about his experience in the grassland.

Zhang Peng and Liu Xingxing nodded repeatedly, and at the same time they had a general understanding of the grassland.

After talking about things on the grassland, Li Ziyu brought the topic back and said to Zhang Peng seriously, "I don't want to send the Ant-Man undead to the battlefield just yet. According to what you and I said, the war has not yet reached us. By the way, neither demons nor demons pose a threat to us, so there is no need to wade into muddy waters."

Zhang Peng looked thoughtful. Li Ziyu didn't want to join the battlefield. That was okay. He just told him that neither the devil nor the demon had any conflict with the undead. There was no need for them to go up the pole to help.

But if I just look at it like this, I always feel like I’ve missed an opportunity.

Zhang Peng looked at Li Ziyu and asked, "What should we do now? Just watch and just trade and make a fortune?"

Li Ziyu chuckled, stretched out his index finger and shook it, "How is that possible? Such a good opportunity is not easy to come by. We have to intervene."

Liu Xingxing and Zhang Peng both looked at each other with "I knew you would say this" expressions, waiting for his next words.

Li Ziyu said to the two of them, "Don't they need weapons and food? Sell it to them, but tell them that we need corpses, a lot of corpses, and let them exchange them for corpses. Of course, resources should be collected, but Corpses take priority.”

The two of them looked surprised.

Zhang Peng clapped his hands and said excitedly, "This is a good idea. There is a war ahead, and there are a lot of corpses, but the corpses have almost no effect on the various races. If they are not dealt with in time, they can easily cause plague. They are worthless things, but for them It’s different for us.”

Liu Xingxing also said, "Yes, yes, once the body is in the hands of the boss, then it is a soldier!"

Trading for resources is not as satisfying as trading for corpses.

The two of them knew clearly that the better Li Ziyu developed, the safer they would be.

Li Ziyu smiled and nodded, "Zhang Peng, I'll leave this matter to you."

Rolling his eyes, Zhang Peng patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me. I'll make it clear to you. I not only want the body, but I also can't waste any more resources."

The weapons and food in hand are in short supply, so there is no need to worry about selling them.

As a businessman, Zhang Peng naturally wants to maximize the use of resources and earn more.

Just replace the body?

No, no, no, thank you.

As long as he lowers the price slightly and adds an additional condition for collecting the corpse, those races will have to obediently send the corpse to him.

The corpses are all free, just a favor.

If you don't send the corpse, then sell weapons and food at a higher price.

One ups and downs, each tribe is not stupid, they must know how to choose.

Li Ziyu was very relieved to leave the business matters to Zhang Peng. Zhang Peng had never made a loss-making transaction for so long.

Under the current circumstances, Zhang Peng could only make a fortune.

After thinking for a while, he said again, "Besides the matter of the corpse, I have one more thing in mind."

Zhang Peng asked quickly, "What else?"

Li Ziyu thought thoughtfully and said, "What do you think of mercenaries?"

Mercenary?

Zhang Peng frowned, thinking, and soon he reacted, his eyes shining.

Yes, why didn't I think of it?

Mercenaries are a genius!

Weapons and food naturally make money, and the army also makes money.

Not only are there a large number of undead, but they also have high-level units such as Black Warriors and Skeleton Knights, which can also go on the battlefield.

Li Ziyu didn't want to get involved himself, but that didn't mean that he couldn't lend the undead to other races to help fight against demons and demons.

Especially after Li Ziyu went to the grassland this time, he brought back tens of millions of Ant-Man souls. He just left them in the territory. By lending them out, he could also harvest a lot of resources.

The more he thought about it, the more feasible it became. Zhang Peng nodded repeatedly, "This is a good method. I'll ask Sayer to ask. The probability of success is very high."

Liu Xingxing was a little puzzled and said, "Why do we need mercenaries? I think the current situation is not good. If the devils and demons come over, we will also need the undead."

Zhang Peng shook his head and explained, "We send the undead to help them for a fee. Not only do they get resources from the other party, but they also get free corpses. We can talk to them. The corpses of the enemies killed by the undead belong to us. They I will definitely agree.”

"One more thing, that is intelligence."

"Since we came here, due to the appearance of the undead, it has been difficult to break into the other party's group. We can only train Sail to obtain information."

"If the other party is willing to rent undead mercenaries, then we can enter the other party's territory openly, thereby obtaining first-hand information and understanding those races better."

Liu Xingxing's eyes widened after hearing Zhang Peng's explanation, "How did you come up with this?"

Zhang Peng rolled his eyes, "Normal people can think of it, just think about it."

Liu Xingxing glanced at Li Ziyu and suddenly fell silent.

I didn't expect that, so I'm not a normal person?

Li Ziyu smiled and said nothing.

Haha, I didn’t expect that much.

I just thought about the mercenary plan. As for what Zhang Peng said, he really didn't think about it.

The mercenary plan was just a temporary thought.

The three of them chatted for a while, and then Zhang Peng said goodbye and left.

He had to do something about it. It was better to start these things sooner rather than later and collect resources.

Li Ziyu and Liu Xingxing continued to chat.

Recently, Liu Xingxing has been wandering around the territory. His mission is to hunt for treasures, especially various mineral veins.

With the help of the treasure-hunting cat man, searching for mineral veins is really not a big deal. He found a lot during this time.

It's just that Li Ziyu is not here and the resource point cannot be built.

He drew a map with various locations marked on it, took it out and gave it to Li Ziyu.

This map was a pure treasure map. Li Ziyu happily accepted it and prepared to build resource points according to the treasure map.

The strategy has been decided, and the next step is to implement it.

Zhang Peng informed Sayer through his own channels that corpses could be used to provide discounts on goods and mercenaries.

……

"Honorable Mr. Sayer, I have your letter." The attendant dragged a silver plate to Sayer's side. After bowing and saluting, he handed the silver plate in front of Sayer.

At this time, Sayer was no longer what he used to be. He wore rings studded with precious stones on his hands, a gold necklace hung around his neck, and the robe on his body was gorgeous and soft, with exquisite patterns drawn with expensive dyes.

Whether it is a ring, necklace or robe, they are not just for beauty, they are all magic items with defensive properties.

After cooperating with the undead, Sayer's wealth increased rapidly.

While he was satisfied, Sayer began to worry about his life.

He is not yet a nobleman, at best he is a big businessman.

And a big businessman like him is a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered in the eyes of many people.

Although the undead sent guards, those guards could not follow him anytime and anywhere.

For the sake of his own life, Sayer spent a lot of money to buy a set of equipment.

From head to toe, these equipments do not have any combat attributes, they are all defensive attributes, so that Sayer can rest assured.

After glancing at the attendant, Sayer took the letter from the silver plate, looked at it, his eyes moved slightly, and he waved his hand gently without raising his head.

The attendant bowed again, stepped back and walked out.

After the door closed, Sayer rubbed the ring on his index finger, and an invisible protective shield unfolded, covering the entire room.

After making sure it was safe, Sayer hurriedly opened the letter without sitting down.

The letter was sent by the city lord of Rat Death Border City, and he did not dare to neglect it in the slightest.

"Can corpses be used for discounts?"

"The undead allow other races to hire their own soldiers?"

Sayer read the letter and frowned, thinking in his mind.

Although Zhang Peng's letter was written very tactfully, he wanted to ask Sayer for help in facilitating these two things.

But Sayer knew in his heart that the euphemism was just a simple courtesy. This was an order for him to complete these two things.

Is it possible that he dares not to do it?

That is the undead, his master of Sayer, and the foundation of prosperity and wealth. Whatever the undead asks him to do, he must do it with 120% energy.

Providing corpses to get discounted goods is easy to do. I believe that the rat people and even other races will not refuse.

But the matter of mercenaries is not so easy.

There are mercenaries among all tribes, mainly for guarding caravans and searching for items. The number of mercenary groups can be up to 1,800, which is considered a large mercenary group.

Mercenary troops, this kind of thing has never happened before.

The powerful tribes living in the central area all have their own army if they don't have an army yet, so why spend a lot of money to hire an army from outsiders.

Mercenary armies not only consume a lot of resources, but are also dangerous.

The most fearful thing is to defect in front of the battle, which is simply disastrous.

The former item is normal business behavior, but the latter item requires careful consideration.

Sayer was very concerned about the matter of the undead and took action soon after receiving Zhang Peng's letter.

With his current status, there is no need to contact those small businessmen. At worst, they have to be big businessmen of the same level, as well as nobles and so on.

As the creators of this chaos, the Ratmen were unable to escape at all. They were also attacked by demons and demons. In a short period of time, they had lost several cities and a large number of refugees had appeared in their territory.

The Ratmen reacted very quickly, and various city-states organized armies to suppress them.

But it also takes time to assemble and dispatch armies, which allows the demons and demons to spread further.

In the city-states that were not affected, the rat nobles still went their own way without any sense of crisis.

They play and sing every day and enjoy the fun brought by wealth.

Sayer is a businessman who has recently become famous. He has grown rapidly from an ordinary businessman setting up a street vendor, and his business routes have expanded to other city-states.

The nobles like his products very much, oh, no, it should be said to be the products of the undead.

Exquisite handicrafts, useless but luxurious plates, cups and other daily necessities, as well as fruits and food they have never seen before... Sayer can always bring surprises to them.

It's not that no one has had thoughts about Sayer, but no matter what, Sayer is protected by the undead.

After the assessment, those greedy nobles came to the conclusion that instead of being their enemies, it would be better for everyone to cooperate.

Today Sa'il brought them great news, a discount!

If you just want to get a discount on the goods from Sayer, you have to give him the body.

The nobles felt puzzled. Why were discounts associated with corpses?

But it doesn’t matter, as long as there is a discount.

Especially when they knew that Sayer had a large amount of weapons and food, they felt that it was a good deal to exchange the corpse for a discount.

Those damn infected people and demons created a large number of corpses every day and slaughtered many ratmen.

There are a lot of rat people. When their cities and tribes are attacked by devils and demons, a large number of corpses will be abandoned.

These corpses are of no use and can only be buried in the ground and wait to rot.

Now that this garbage finally has value, it can help them save a lot of profits, which is great.

The nobles and big businessmen who got the news immediately took action. They originally avoided the war, but under the trend of profit, they rushed to the battlefield, collected the corpses picked up from the battlefield, and then loaded them into trucks and transported them away.

The nobles and big businessmen had no intention of hiding the matter of collecting the corpses, and made a big deal about it.

At first, everyone was excited. These nobles and businessmen were finally doing something serious.

Then, everyone began to laugh. After all, collecting and transporting corpses was costly, and would cost them part of their wealth.

It was obvious that they couldn't laugh, because the nobles and businessmen who collected the corpses accepted all who came. No matter how many corpses there were, they accepted them all. The quantity was terrifying.

This is not normal.

What do they want with so many bodies?

Do you really want to do good things?

The nobles and big businessmen in other city-states didn't believe it.

My own family knows their own affairs, how can they be so kind?

There must be huge interests behind the movement of nobles and big businessmen, otherwise these greedy and profitless vampires would not care about worthless corpses.

Doubts were scratching in their hearts like kitten paws. Those nobles and big businessmen who had not yet come into contact with Sayer couldn't sit still and sent their spies one after another to get information.

Although the big businessmen and nobles didn't care about demons and demons, they were extremely concerned about wealth.

Such a large number of corpses could not be hidden from spies.

The spy followed the convoy and watched as the convoy pulled away carloads of corpses, all heading in the same direction, so he reported what he saw to his master.

The corpses are continuously gathering towards one place, and that side is the direction of the undead territory where a war just broke out some time ago.

Are these guys crazy? They want to transport corpses to the undead?

The nobles and big businessmen who didn't understand the situation felt that they couldn't let it go. Although they didn't know what the problem was, they were very angry when they saw other people's wealth increasing.

The nobles of various city-states began to unite to resist the act of collecting corpses and criticized this behavior, believing that it would bring trouble to the rat people.
