I think you can't even imagine the happiness of a warlock.

After secretly following the goblins, they found that they had reunited with unidentified humans. Not only did they not have any disputes, but the relationship between the two sides seemed to be unusually harmonious.

The fact that this was in stark contrast to the goblin siege that had just ended not long ago made Jerry very curious, and he decisively eavesdropped on the conversation between the two sides.

"According to the agreement, we have conquered... conquered the city, but where is the food?"

What Shushu never expected was that the goblinoids' attack on Scarlet Town was actually instructed and supported by humans, and they even had a secret exchange of supplies.

Could it be that other countries are using the so-called "modules" to attack their enemies?

Jerry continued listening and soon got an answer that confused him greatly.

"Don't worry, you will be needed for food. We will continue to cooperate if we have the chance in the future."

"I don't understand." The hobgoblin found this difficult to understand from beginning to end. "Why would someone hire others to attack themselves?"

Seeing that the goblin's little brain was about to overload, the middle-aged man in plain clothes guarded by bodyguards smiled happily.

"Do you know what my job is?"

"The union president."

"That's right. Essentially, I am just a food seller. Fighting on the front line has little to do with me. If I can't make money, I will really die."

The earth goblins became more and more confused. What did this have to do with the fact that the other party hired them, the goblins, in exchange for food to pretend to attack humans?

"Haha, don't think too much. We will have plenty of opportunities to continue our cooperation in the future. Then you will know why."

The brief meeting ended quickly, and the goblinoids and humans left separately.

Shushu, who witnessed the final payment between the two parties, seemed to be thinking about something.

"Hire goblins to attack the town, causing panic among the residents and driving up prices?"

It can be sure that the wages paid by the guild leader to the goblins will never be higher than the profits brought by the increase in food prices this time.

"What's the meaning?"

Lily, who lived in Paradise, couldn't understand it for a moment.

She could understand the logic between hiring goblins to attack the city and promoting price increases, but why would the union president do this?

They are so bad.

"Well..."

In his heart, Chen Zhou felt that the evil level of this kind of thing was just average.

For one thing, the fake siege seemed to have caused no casualties.

Secondly, the goblins, townspeople, and merchants each got what they needed.

From a moral point of view, the union president is indeed a bad guy who will do anything for profit, but if you really ask how evil he is... at most he is just a minor villain.

"But this is definitely not right, right?"

"Of course, hero, what do you think?"

Jerry thought that if he still cared about a few dollars when the survival of mankind was in danger, he might be seriously ill.

As a brave man, he naturally has to deal with it, but how to do it is a difficult problem.

From a long-term perspective, food prices and commodity prices will inevitably rise due to the war between the two sides. If they do not rise now, they will rise in the future.

Arresting the union president and asking him to confess will not actually solve the problem.

The symptoms must be treated, and the root cause must also be treated. Only then can you be called a brave man.

"Why don't we get some high-quality seeds from Paradise?"

"Material will never catch up with the speed of development of the desires of intelligent creatures. Given the general environment, it is not enough to simply satisfy their needs."

In Jerry's opinion, it would be most convenient to cut the Gordian knot like Chen Zhou did in the past and flatten the entire plane in one go.

However, this world is different from Asta's situation. A level 6 professional may not be able to conquer the world alone.

Lily suddenly felt a headache. How could she solve this spontaneous adjustment (unhealthy) of the market?

There is no way to cure it completely. Chen Zhou is extremely sure that even after decades or hundreds of years, businessmen will try similar things.

Is this also a kind of "market law"?

Whether it is a human or a dragon, no one can stop the inevitability of history.

"It's okay. I just recorded it. I can copy the communication between the guild leader and the goblins into multiple copies and give them to people who can use them properly. I can secretly encourage the guilds in Scarlet Town to upgrade."

Even though this is an inevitable development trend, there will still be fresh blood trying to do better.

With the help of public opinion supervision, the situation will eventually remain stable for a year or two.

Jerry, who had an idea, immediately used his size advantage to fly back and forth in the night sky of Scarlet Town, ensuring that the evidence he left behind would not be used maliciously - for example, by threatening the union president to pay a confidentiality fee.

Then it didn't stay for long and set out again on its journey the next morning.

The fact that the Scarlet Town Union was secretly manipulating the market was exposed, the union president was hanged, and the new president had to work hard for a while had nothing to do with a hamster...

……

Half a month later, Shushu, moving in a straight line, entered the territory of the Kingdom of Sylver.

Count Casper, who lives on the edge of human civilization, has always been known for his martial style and unrivaled military strength. For many years, he has been the absolute main force in fighting against alien races.

It was different from the iron-blooded military state that Jerry had in mind.

After entering Xiweier, Shushu was somewhat surprised by the local residents' hospitality, martial customs, and a life that was more comfortable than that in the later countries.

It was as if the war on the front line, which was like a meat grinder, did not exist, and the border of the country of Sylver was filled with a noisy and lively atmosphere.

After transforming into a human and asking the local residents, he found out that in one month's time, Sylvie would have his annual martial arts competition in front of Count Casper.

For the residents of the border, war with foreign races is like a daily routine. Every man is prepared from birth, and those who return from the battlefield can get almost everything they wish for.

"Incredible. How do you maintain your population? Humans don't reproduce as fast as goblins, kobolds, orcs, etc."

In response to the foreign traveler's question, the tavern owner couldn't help but laugh and said, "Their battle death rate is several times higher than that of humans. An organized army is far stronger than the individual demons who rely on their own strength. Moreover, the outbreak of a full-scale war between humans and demons has only happened in recent years."

According to the tavern owner's recollection, the war between humans and demons began about three years ago after a mysterious being who called himself the "Demon King" appeared and took command of all alien races.

Initially, the human side was almost destroyed by the sudden large-scale coalition forces, but after the Three Kingdoms Alliance responded in time, they basically established an "invincible position".

The reason why they claim that humanity is on the verge of extinction... is probably just a consideration for propaganda purposes.

"But I heard that the country behind us even used the ancestral summoning ritual, spending a lot of magical materials to summon the legendary hero from another world?"

"Isn't that what should be done? King Ernest can't just enjoy without giving anything in return."

Wait a minute, the tavern owner suddenly felt something strange. The foreign youth's accent didn't seem to be like the common languages ​​he had heard before...
