Chapter 1014 Go West!go west!Make big money!
Gretel plunged headlong into the research institute, obsessed with mutagenizing viruses, screening viruses, and cultivating viruses, without knowing the passing of time.
He didn't know that Cerilla chose a temporary lair on the top of a snowy mountain not far away, spread out her golden utensils, and took Mr. Troka up to play every day;
He didn't know that even the city of Tenoch, which was close at hand, had already entered the rainy season and began to be overcast with clouds. It rained heavily day and night, and the water in the lake had begun to gradually rise;
He still doesn't know that the storm at sea is rising, and the ships are moored and sailed, and they enter the port to avoid the wind.The Hawthorne couple's "Flint and Jasmine Adventure Store" was blown through the door twice. Fortunately, Ms. Jasmine gave birth to vines in an emergency, and the roof was not even blown off;
Of course, he didn't even know how much sensation the Parliament's action against the Eagle Country had caused in Nevis and the Kingdom of Kent.
"250 tons of gold... all kinds of precious gemstones of about the same value in the local area... magic crystals... monsters... animal bones... feathers... plants... all kinds of specialties..."
When the Tower of the Great Mage in Tenoch City was erected, this rough news had already been sent back to Nevis, and it went around in the judging meeting and among the legendary mages.Such a huge amount of wealth, even a legendary mage, cannot ignore it:
"With this amount of gold, the council will have a lot more money to spend in the next few years!"
The treasurer of the Magic Council and the judging member of the Prophecy Department, Archmage Farric Yano, was beaming.Although there is no clear economic theory guidance, financial officials of all dynasties have a clear concept: how much money is earned and how much money is spent.
Although the [Contribution Points] of the parliament are only circulated internally in name, they never refuse qualified outsiders who are friendly to the parliament to exchange them.And how many contribution points are sent out, there has always been a scale:
How much gold is in the secret treasury, how many products are produced by the council, and how many products are sold in that year, and how many contribution points can be issued.The gold is less, the products are less, and the products cannot be sold. I'm sorry, let's tighten our belts together and live a hard life.
And this time, 250 tons of gold!
A few years ago, the council mobilized the Third Fleet and the alchemy ship [Philosopher's Stone], and several legendary mages took action.Together with the kingdom's navy, they contacted the dwarves, barbarians, vampires and orcs, worked desperately, and intercepted the golden fleet of the glorious Holy See——
With such a big battle, the gold that finally fell into the hands of the parliament did not even have a fraction of this figure!
It's done! ! !
"A rare material worth 250 tons of gold!" The eyes of the judges of the transformation department were also shining.In the local area, materials worth 250 tons of gold are transported to Nevis, and the price can be more than five times——
The important thing is that this is the supplies from the southwestern part of the New World, the Kingdom of Eagles!How many of these things have never been seen by the council, they are worthy of being identified and figured out by magicians of the transformation department!
Just by studying these materials, the average level of low-level transformation magicians can be raised by one or two levels!
How many other supplies are the special products of the previous Storm Islands.The parliament can't reach it, so it can only be trafficked through second-hand traffickers. The price is high and the quantity is small.This time a wave of shipments came, hehe, hehe, hehe...
In the heart of the reviewer, a long list had already been pulled out, all of which were magic props that could not be produced or produced in large quantities due to insufficient raw materials:
"Flying Cloak...Sunshine Bracers...Swan Ship Amulet...Iridescent Robe..."
With a large number of precious feathers and precious gems, if these props can be produced in large quantities, the overall strength of the council can be greatly improved!
"Open up! Open up! Open up to the south of the New World!"
"Extend our power there!"
"It just so happens that the opponent's strength is greatly damaged! Send our strength over there!"
"Cough cough..."
Aliz Usman, the rotating committee member of the Evocation Department, coughed lightly.Raising his eyes, his ice blue eyes looked around, and his voice was cold:
"What's the rush? This kind of thing needs to be done slowly, fully planned, and it's best to mobilize civil forces—to me, it's best to go both sea and land, open more seaports by the sea, build more mage towers, and let merchant ships Seeing that they can make money, they will naturally go over;”
She swept her eyes away and saw that the members of the prophecy department, the transformation department, and the conjuration department were all nodding their heads and smiling slightly:
"On land, thanks to our Master Nordmark, we have established a good relationship along the way. Show the harvest in the settlements on the east coast of the New World, and tell them that there is a lot of gold-I don't believe it, gold can't attract They run over!"
"In addition to us magicians, it's best to let those nobles and folk adventurers participate." The review committee of the Protection Department gave their opinions in a harmonious voice:
"Can the airship change its course and stop in the capital? It is even possible to hold a triumphant ceremony and send some gifts to the queen! Let the nobles see that we have opened up this road. The state has gold! There is treasure!"
The review committee members discussed each other carefully for a long time, and made a detailed plan and reported it to the legendary mage.Soon, the decision on Nevis was passed from the Tongtian Tower to the Archmage Tower in Tenoch, and to the hands of the Archmage Bairbo and his party:
"Go to the settlement to show off? Then go to Wangdu to show off? No problem!"
James Lowe, carrying a skin bag half the height of a person, walked back to the small town of Waltham from the wilderness and walked into a leather shop.
——It has been several years since he left the mainland of the Kingdom of Kent and came to the New World.
That year, he was ordered by Baron Hopman to assassinate a mage named Gretel Nordmark.After tracking for several days, lying on the beams of the house for a whole night, I prepared to make a move three times, but failed to find a chance three times.
Either there are masters by your side, or there are masters by your side...
As soon as he gritted his teeth, he went back to the baron's castle and gathered his family together, boarded a ship, and came to the New World.With the skills of a level 7 assassin, he went into the wilderness, hunted wild animals, collected rare plants, and lived a pretty good life.Although it is a bit bitter, it is peaceful!
You don't need to be ordered by the baron to kill this one today and that one tomorrow, and you will be disgusted by him day by day, and you may even be thrown away as an outcast!
But James Lowe was getting old every day.From 40 years old to 45 years old, then to 46 years old and 47 years old, it seems that I am about to turn 50 years old.As a level 7 assassin, his body won't age immediately, but it's only been a few years since he wanted to make a lot of money...
The eldest son is still not up to the mark, and has not broken through to become a knight until now. If the younger daughter wants to marry a good family, she also needs a generous dowry...
He sold those buffalo skins, beaver skins, fire fox skins, and a precious leopard skin that had been lurking for half a month and was brought in at the risk of death, one by one, in exchange for a bag of jingling gold coins.
Well, with this money, you can buy a bottle of [Blood Burning Potion] for knight advancement, and ask the bishop of the God of War Temple to make a shot.It is said that the temple recently has a new method, which can reduce the danger of advanced death to infinitely close to zero...
It would be nice if the eldest son could break through the cavaliers.At that time, he will also prepare a suit of knight armor for his son and a dowry for his youngest daughter.A harvest like today's will come seven or eight times at least, that is to say, it will take three to five years of hard work.
James Lowe stepped out of the leather shop, narrowing his eyes slightly to adapt to the sunlight outside, and there were sudden exclamations one after another around him.
"Airship!"
"Airship!"
"The airship is back!"
James Lowe looked up following the eyes of the people around him.An airship bigger than several houses put together slowly crossed the sky and lowered its altitude.On both sides of the road, many shopkeepers came out to look, point and envy:
"It's the parliament's airship!"
"A few months ago, I stopped here for three days and then flew west again. It is said that I will go to the westernmost edge of the New World!"
"Now that I'm back again, I don't know what the result will be?"
"Old Bob went with them. It is said that he wants to go to that country of eagles to make a fortune! I don't know if he has caught it? What good things can there be in such a far away indigenous land?"
People on the street were talking about it.After a while, in the surrounding streets, "bang", "bang", "bang" sounds of shop closings sounded one after another.James Lowe came back to his senses, looked left and right, and saw that many shops were closed——
The shopkeepers and the guys rushed towards a flat highland outside the town, and rushed towards the slowly descending airship.
run!
run!
Go and see, what good things are there in the distant kingdom of eagles!
James Lowe tightened his purse tightly, relying on his strength and vigilance, he also rushed over.Running to the vicinity of the high ground, a wind barrier has been erected around the high ground, a magician stood high on the magic carpet, opened the loudspeaker and shouted:
"Everyone, don't squeeze! Don't squeeze! ——The airship will stop here for three days, and the relevant harvest of the Kingdom of Eagles will be displayed in the square in front of the Mage Tower! You can go and see it at that time! Please spread out now, let We replenish supplies!"
Magicians do what they say.From the next day, the square in front of the mage's tower was crowded with people, and people from half the town crowded in.James Lowe lined up to take a look, and was dazed on the spot:
gold!
gold!
Gold plates, gold bowls, gold crowns, gold necklaces, gold bracelets, gold masks...
Ruby, sapphire, gold obsidian, sunstone, tourmaline, opal...
Colorful feathers that seem to contain powerful magic at first glance...
"There are a lot of gold mines and gemstone mines!" The mages in charge of the display smiled and took the trouble:
"The production capacity of the local aborigines is very backward. They don't know how to forge iron, and they don't even have bronze wares! ——The steel knives, iron axes, and even sewing needles we brought over are all sold well by the aborigines! A steel Making a dagger can be exchanged for two complete cowhide!"
"They use a wooden box to pan for gold in shallow streams! Because there are no iron products, they can only dig a little bit of the surface..."
"Is there danger on the road? There must be, but we have already negotiated with the indigenous tribe!" The mage in charge showed an iron plate, on which a bright blue hexagram was burned with the special craftsmanship of the mages:
"With this sign, you are a friend! Follow the map, and the indigenous tribes along the way, as long as you don't show hostility, they will not attack you! You can lodge, buy water and food from them, and even sell goods give them!"
"Is there a plague in the Kingdom of the Eagles? - Then, this is the latest paper, which has been pasted at the door of the mage tower! As long as you buy magic equipment to prevent mosquitoes, you don't have to be afraid of the plague in the jungle anymore!"
James Lowe was short of breath.He looked at the treasures on the square one by one, and then turned his head to look at the town and the new house he finally bought:
Do you want to go to the depths of the New World to work hard while you still have physical strength, and save a fortune for your family, children, and your own old age?
