Lord of terror

Avoiding, ignoring, and forgetting cannot solve the problem, we must face it squarely, and even prepare for the worst result.

——Although the players have developed to an unknown stage in three to five years, they should not underestimate the neighbors around them.

"Approximately how many goblin magic power crystals can be used to offset taxes?"

"Generally speaking, a hundred or so is enough. But Tarian City will definitely trouble you."

"Because of John and Moria?"

"No, because you sent papermaking technology, which is a good thing for the empire, but it came from the hands of p rural nobles, and even gave it directly to the emperor, but it made many big nobles feel ashamed."

"...The one who raised my tax is the emperor?" Kunz felt like he was starting to use MMP all over his head.

"You are just an insignificant country nobleman, and you are also a country nobleman who has caused dissatisfaction among other nobles. It makes you feel uncomfortable, but it can make other nobles feel better. This is a good deal." Muchelle P said, The more he laughed, the happier he was, "You look like you're about to cry, my lord, do you want a handkerchief?"

Kunz let go of the hand that was covering his chest unconsciously again, ignoring Muchel's gloating: "Muchel, based on your experience, what trouble do you think Tarian City will cause us?"

"Don't worry, little lord." Muchel patted Kunz on the shoulder, "Although they will indeed trouble you, at most they will just ask you for some more crystals of magic power. After all, you are a lord noble, yes They're their own people, they won't go too far."

"...Thank you." I was not comforted at all, "Then can we do business in Tarian City?"

"What do you want to sell? The skin and bones of the snake mother?"

"Sugar." Kunz dragged Mussel to the dining room.

What the captain eats is the best crystalline sugar that has been purified many times.Kunz and Wan P point discussed that what they want to sell as the original product, and what is now being tasted by Muchelle, is the brown sugar that has only undergone a few rough processing steps. When they discussed, they planned to talk about the sale next year. Since there is an opportunity to go to Tarian City to pay taxes, of course he cannot give up.

The brown sugar is placed in a crock, and each piece is about the size of a mahjong and two fingers thick.Although Mussel lived in the dining room during the day before setting out to pick up the slaves, he had never seen this kind of "secret material".Even if I tasted sweetness in the food, I only thought it was the taste brought by honey.

He resisted this kind of black thing's pout, but for Kunz's sake, he still licked his pout cautiously.

At the next p moment, he opened his mouth wide and stuffed a whole piece of brown sugar into his mouth.

He puffed up his cheeks, and muttered for a long time: "Ah, ah, another piece of p."

In the food desert of Tuoxing, no matter men, women, young or old, they cannot refuse the beauty of sweetness.

Kunz put his hand on the sugar bowl: "Can I sell it first?"

"No."

"...You're out of sugar." Kunz turned around and left with the sugar jar.

Muchel stood in front of Kunz in an instant: "Sell it, and the emperor will come to kill you. Even if you don't leave your own land, the captain and us can't prevent you from being killed. Don't even try to send the production method to For the emperor, p papermaking skills are enough, plus p sugar making, the emperor will definitely kill you as the lord and nobleman."

"Why did you kill me? Wouldn't it bring more benefits to keep me?" The MMP in my heart stopped swiping, and I couldn't understand it at all.

"But you are not a craftsman, you are a lord noble, and it is your summons who created these. The pth time can be attributed to luck, the second time must be related to strength, and it is very likely that the third time will not be far away. Because the benefits you bring must also start from yourself, which means that it is very likely that you will become a new powerful aristocrat, or a rich one. The emperor does not want to see it, and other nobles do not want to see it .”

These words imply that if Kunz is a craftsman or a businessman, even if he is a noble, as long as he is not a territorial noble who has inherited the territory, then he is now probably forced to sign a contract like those slaves—even if If you can't sign the contract, your freedom will be restricted by other methods.

This... thinking about the captain's current situation, it's not incomprehensible.

In such an era, surviving without a backer is absolutely difficult in hell.

[Baron Monroe, in this world, not everyone agrees to a win-win situation.Even for many people, the word win-win means he wins twice.If someone gains the same benefits as him, it is a detriment to his interests.We should focus on stimulating domestic demand. ] Ten thousand points listened from the side, and also persuaded, this kid really thinks too much of others.

"I'm not that naive either..." Kunz's explanation was a bit weak, and the eyes of Muchelle and Wan Pdian were brightly written with "You are".He really didn't want to drive the world's technology to make great strides. What he is doing now can be said to be a tyranny, and he was hinted to be too soft-hearted, "But we still need to buy supplies...we can't use magic crystals."

"Give me that jar of sugar, and I'll give you five hundred gold coins."

"!"

[! ]

"No... At least most of them are not eaten by me, and I will sell them. Of course, you can also let me sell them on behalf of you, but I ask for half of the sugar proceeds."

"It's because you think these candies can sell thousands of gold coins?"

"At least." Muchelle admitted straightforwardly, "Van Vatina's extravagance is beyond your imagination. The sweet brown sugar will drive the nobles in this year's social season crazy."

Winter in the Sherfer Empire is the social season for the nobles of the empire. In the words of florists, it is cat winter.The cold weather changed the entertainment methods of the nobles from outdoors to indoors. The feast and dance began on the pth day of the autumn harvest and continued until the end of the spring festival in the following year.

"Wait a minute." Kunz went back to the kitchen, this time he brought out a small piece of sesame candy the size of a coin, "How much do you think this will sell for?"

The sugar of sesame candy is amber, and it can be smelled purer than brown sugar only by the smell - brown sugar is not only similar in color and taste to brown sugar, it has a grassy taste that can be called medicine, and the taste of brown sugar is more bitter .

Muchel carefully put the candy into his mouth, and he immediately closed his eyes full of satisfaction and happiness, and when he opened them again, Kunz even saw p little crystal tears: "I would like to use The purest sapphire, in exchange for the same size of sugar."

Brown sugar and gold coin exchange: 1:2

Exchange of brown sugar mixed with other materials and gems: 1:1

It's not weight, it's volume.

Although it's exaggerated, it's easy to understand when you think about Blue Star's extravagance.Sugar was originally a luxury in the ancient times of the Blue Star World, but the price was not that exaggerated. The rich people in this world are also richer.

"I'll give it to..." Kunz, who was just about to agree, paused, "It's rich to sell these things through your channel, but how do I spend it?"

“…”[…]

Mussel and Wanp are also stuck, which is indeed a problem.The size of the candy is very small, and Muchel's followers can sneakily transport it to the imperial capital with a bag on their backs, and hand it over to the people in Mussel's sales channel.Although gold coins or precious stones are heavy, but at worst, three or two people will be taken over, and p people can carry p boxes and get them back. After all, the strength of extraordinary people is really very, very strong.

However, the items to be purchased for the entire territory will definitely not be carried back by a few people.

[Use space rings and other holding items? ] Ten thousand p point proposals.

"Space ring?"

Muchel curled his lips: "The space ring is a strategic item, at least I don't have one."

"I..." Kunz wanted to say, he went to ask the captain.

【cough! ] Butler J suddenly coughed in the space, interrupting what Kunz said.

【→_→What's the matter? 】

[Have you forgotten something? I have the ability to store space, otherwise your players will lose their items every time they go offline. 】

Starting from p, players can carry their belongings with them when they go offline or die. This is indeed a space storage capability.

[This...isn't it linked to the player? 】

[Yes, it must be the player who has signed the contract, so you have to let the player deliver the goods, but I must be very happy with Wanp.Also, don't forget that you promised me that you will listen to my lecture later. 】

【good!After these problems are solved, just listen... Do I have the space storage capacity? 】

【No.You are not a player either, you are an NPC. 】

【…】

Although the conversation between Kunz and Butler J was very short, it was suddenly in a daze while speaking. Both Muchelle and Wan P looked at him suspiciously.

"I have a solution. I can enlarge the carry-on space of P Ge Ji Ge Ji. You can disguise him and take him out."

This was a bit of a surprise. The way Kunz looked like just now was obviously as helpless as they were, but with a frown, there was a solution.Neither of them asked much about the source of the space. Muchel glanced at Point Wanp, and Point Wanp said naturally: [Okay, I will arrange the personnel.After carrying the supplies, can I go online and offline normally? ]

"That's fine."

Wan P asks this, because he has already thought of it. After taking enough materials, he can go back to Mengluofei directly after going offline and back online. The speed should not be too fast.

[Then I still suggest not to bring only p people, but to bring three to ten people according to the amount of purchased materials, so as to spread the risks they may encounter outside. ]

"Yeah!" Kunz nodded sincerely. He completely listened to professionals on this kind of question.

[Another p proposal is to not sell brown sugar, only sell brown sugar, and change the name of brown sugar to Tangjing. ]

"This... shouldn't be as simple as changing the name?"

[Plant residues can be found in brown sugar. With the technology in this world, it is not difficult to deduce the origin of brown sugar.But there is no plant residue in the brown sugar, it is pure sugar crystallization, it is difficult for them to deduce the production process of sugar crystals.This name can also serve as a false suggestion, making them mistakenly think that sugar crystals are mineral crystals.Prolong our monopoly on the sugar industry for as long as possible. ]

Kunz gave a thumbs up to [-] points, but still turned his head and asked Muchel: "Can the current alchemists reverse the production process of sugar?"

"Of course the captain needs to add a time seal before selling it."

"time……"

[......]

Well, this is the wizarding world, so think magically.

"In a nutshell, only sell brown sugar, not brown sugar, and change the name of the brown sugar to Tangjing. He will bring people here later. How many sugar crystals can you sell at a time?"

Muchelle also imitated Kunz's behavior just now, and gave a thumbs up to Wanp: "Great idea. I can sell as much as you give me, but first let me tell you what we want to buy. It's urgent. It’s normal, it doesn’t matter if it’s good or not.”

[Uh... Excuse me, I didn't eavesdrop on purpose, but if it's selling candy, do I need to make it special? ] When the deep-sea fish saw Kunz coming in, she came out with a piece of candy. Her curiosity made her follow, and she had been watching from the sidelines for a long time.

"Does deep-sea fish need special production?"

"unnecessary."

Ten thousand points [It is enough to keep the sugar crystals in their original crystallization. ]

[Understood. ] The deep-sea fish went back.

Muchelle, Wanpdian, Kunz, and the butler J, whom no one knew, began to discuss what the urgently needed supplies of the territory were.Kunz thought it was cloth, but the other three all said it was food.

"Leather is already used, let's talk about clothes next year."

[Food must be in stock, must be. ]

[Even if players can hunt in winter, your food is still in danger. 】

"Yes, I understand." The vegetable chicken lord trembled.

You can buy as much grain as you can, and you have to buy grain types.

"All kinds of grains, wheat from other places, bean seeds, vegetable seeds, and flower seeds." Kunz repeated the words of Wanpian, "There are also breeding animals, the first choice is the breeding stock of large animals, there is no room for Gejigeji If there is a way to release the living things, you can only carry it back."

Flower seeds are needed. After all, peppers, tomatoes, and cotton used to be ornamental flowers. Maybe they can be missed?

The giant rat has been successfully born, with two p fetuses. The little giant rat born has no hair but has milky white scales. It looks more like a reptile than a mammal.The female mouse is very docile even during childbirth, and will not be irritable at all because of the approach of humans. It is obvious that this is a highly domesticated domestic animal.

After Moria and John left, the horse stables that were originally restricted to players were also allowed to enter.Some biologists also got the right to take care of the warriors' mounts with the grooms. Those scale horses and feather horses make people want to hug their thighs.

With these livestock as the base, Wanp is very clear that Blue Star's cattle, horses and sheep cannot be used, so it is not specified.

Probably thinking of the miserable situation of his follower P Road, Muchel bit the bullet and nodded: "...OK."

On Wan P's face, it was written in capitals that people depend on food.

The next thing to consider are various hemp seeds and looms, cloth samples (the more types the better), dyes (if there are recipes, the better), various architectural drawings (although there are player building modules, but The local buildings are also used for reference), the formula of alchemy medicine (buy the cheap ones), the popular glassware on the upper floor and the best-selling glassware among the cheap ones...

From memorizing in his head, Muchel took out p small notebooks (Kuntz: when did he get it?) and p small charcoal pencils to write madly.

Kunz also retells while p, and learns while p.These things cover the needs of clothing, food, housing and transportation in the territory, the direction of future trade, and the goals of urban development.

When the Wanp point was finally finished, Muchelle said to the dense catalog: "Ten people are not enough, at least fifteen people are needed."

Kunz didn't speak, even though Muchel didn't know how much space P Gejigeji could have, but this has nothing to do with the size of the space, but with the number of times.With so many types, it obviously takes a long time to collect, and one person has to come back after a period of time. Ten people are really not enough.

[Okay, I'll prepare the manpower. ]

At [-] p.m., Deep Sea Fish came out of the kitchen with two people pushing a large pottery jar. She opened the wooden lid of the pottery pot [I chose large pieces of crystalline sugar, Baron Zhengtai, can you see if it is enough?] . ]

Muchel looked at the earthenware jar that could put Geji Geji into it, and the sugar crystals inside: "Captain, has he been eating well recently?"

Kunz smiled awkwardly: "Well, the captain eats very well."

Mussel smiled at Kunz and narrowed his eyes.

"Cough! Leave, Majesty." Kunz pushed Deep Sea Fish into the kitchen. Of course, he didn't want to blame Deep Sea Fish for taking out the sugar. He just wanted to ask Deep Sea Fish if the leader's candy was ready today.

When he came out, he took three white porcelain sugar bowls, gave one to Muschel, and stuffed the other two into his pockets.

"Why is this so embarrassing?" Even though he said so, Muchel took the sugar bowl without slowing down, and his squinting eyes finally showed their pupils again.

"I'm going to make a time seal for the captain, is it called this?"

"Yes, let's go."

Kunz picked up the big clay pot - this thing was cooked to pickle pickles - Kunz thought it would take a little effort to move such a big thing, but who would have thought that it would take a lot of force.All of a sudden, he lost his balance, and the tank was about to fly out.With sharp eyes and quick hands, Muchel stretched out his palm and patted the wooden lid, and also stabilized the big clay vat.

"Have you just been promoted? Little lord, your speed is really fast~ Extraordinary people can't be so uncontrollable. You need to train more in the future to increase your endurance."

"..." I always feel like a wheel has run over my face, and I have proof.

Holding the big cylinder and feeling the power of the p, Kunz ignored Muchel's teasing and ran back to the North Tower.

The captain had been waiting for Kunz for a long time. Seeing him put down the vat, the captain stretched out his hand, and when Kunz handed over the two small sugar bowls, the captain said: "The time seal is not very good. If it is a seal, it will always be released." Open, besides, it is easy to see that I did it."

"That……"

"Don't be so impatient, wait for me to finish. Therefore, it is more convenient to use time to wash." The captain raised one hand above the big pottery vat, and bits and pieces of golden light began to sprinkle from his hands, as if entering a field Rain of Light.Kunz even vaguely heard the sound of ding ding dong dong, as if someone were plucking the strings of a harp, messy but pleasant, "Okay."

After the task was completed, Kunz held up the big pot: "Captain, what is the principle of your flight?"

"Principle? Isn't the light that fills the sky supposed to be able to fly?"

"..." Kunz's shoulders holding the tank drooped, and he ran downstairs dejectedly holding the tank.

When he got downstairs, listening to the noisy voices, Kunz thought that today he had to release the task of "warming up the space copy" to explore the path and establish a transfer base for the players, so he couldn't help sighing.

Kunz’s thoughts before the slaves came: slaves, come quickly, I will have nothing to fear when the population rises to p steps.

Kunz’s thoughts after the slaves came: _(:з」∠)_ There is a population, but there are more things.

The official entourage recruited by Wanpian came from various departments of the Panda Club, and there were all kinds of people in various colors, clothing, and heights.The followers called by Muchel looked at P group Geji Geji with happy expressions on their faces, and secretly squeezed a certain panda's paw.

→_→ Don’t think that if you pinch carefully, the squiggles you squeeze out are not loud, so everyone can’t hear them. Do you think you’re probably a muscular man?

With so many geji geji, of course, you can’t just carry them away, but choose to ride on the road—there are large baskets on the left and right sides of the horse, and geji geji can be packed inside and taken away.

"In order to avoid being discovered, they will not enter the town to rest on the road, can they?"

Ten thousand p points [No problem!In our current state, we don't need to eat, drink, or take a bath. We only need to sleep for a few hours a day. ]

The people he was looking for were all new shifts, and the bodies of their flower growers had also been transferred to the key service areas that had been online for the longest time.

After modifying the storage space for them, this group of MAX mobile bosses set off directly.

[Announcement to all players: Thanks to the efforts of the warriors, the goblins around Monroe Castle are no longer to be feared.Warriors, are you ready to embark on a new journey? 】

[! ] Wanp looked at Kunz in surprise. In his opinion, Kunz's action is strong enough.

[Announcement to all players: The space crack warm-up event has officially started, but before starting the battle, the warriors still need to make some preparations for their own safety, such as a new safe zone and a new birth point.Players are requested to set off to the target location after forming a team, build and guard the camp for 10 days. PS: This is a team task, and single players cannot receive the task or receive rewards. 】

[Why! ][Aren't casual people players? ! ][=. = Still not used to it?Don't ask, just ask hardcore, not planning. ]

[The team is recruiting! Powerful thugs above [-] meters! ][The team is recruiting!Come to pmi[-] violence! ]

[QAQp Mi Siqiu Group!Good consciousness, able to resist and fight! ][Sanda players looking for a group!Although I am weak now, my future is promising! ]

Other games look at the equipment to score DPS, "Space Rift" looks at the height to score DPS...

The players made a fuss that night, and the next morning, many people were still making a fuss to form a team. At this time, Kunz and Wan Pian had already followed Muchel on the road.Kunz sat behind Mussel, carrying a dirty bag, which contained the crystallization of magic power he had just exchanged from Butler J last night.Wan Pdian was carrying a straw schoolbag and sitting in the basket behind the p horse's buttocks.

The author has something to say: Player: Shaking and cold QAQ when will the little guy stand up!
