Chapter 270 Xia An Can't Die, The Revolution Needs Him
Before Eve completed the transformation, it was insignificant for Xia'andia to produce magic ore. After all, she couldn't smelt it herself. The channels of Xiaolongnv, Rowena, or Zolder were enough to provide the best-priced magic metal.

It's different now, the independent magical metal smelting technology is about to succeed, and with independent ore sources, there is no need to accept exploitation by merchants.

Looking carefully at the list, Li Qi frowned.Let alone the price, the quantity is too small.It is no problem to supply a few magician's laboratories, but to meet the needs of the magic industry, even Li Qi's original plan is short of several zeros.

"Our Xia'andia is rich in magical mineral resources, otherwise the uncle would not choose to build the paladin's home there."

Nicole's answer is very paladin: "But uncle regards ore mining as a practice of paladins, and the fruits of labor can meet the needs of daily life. Mining ore for greater benefits will make paladins deviate from the path of justice .”

Xia An, you are really... crazy.

Li Qi rested his arms on the desk, crossed his hands to support his chin, and looked at Nicole with the expression of a million-dollar creditor. It's a pity that he didn't wear sunglasses or backlight, otherwise the aura would be perfect.

"Nicole..."

Li Qi's affectionate address made the girl paladin have a complex expression of disgust and expectation.

I just heard Li Qi say: "Don't look at my territory just opened, but the scale is far beyond the imagination of your Cheyandian paladins. Your so-called business, to me, is the level of the canteen downstairs. I think you still Visit our business center first, and correct your position."

Nicole's expression froze for a few seconds, and then with a bang, she slapped Li Qi's table with a slap: "If you refuse a deal, you refuse justice! Didn't you hear the hiss of your conscience leaking air? Congealed The magic ore from the sweat of a paladin cannot be refused! Of course, we can discuss the price..."

"see a visitor out!"

"Don't worry, my caravan brought not only ore, but also the special products of Cheyandia! The rye, red tomato, high-quality alfalfa planted by the paladins, and the rattan-core shoes woven by the paladins..."

The righteous girl paladin businessman was dragged out by Ellie who was acting as a temporary guard. Nicole continued to yell at the door frame, and a gentle male voice stopped her: "Miss paladin, I heard you brought a Caravan, why don't you go to our business center to trade?"

Nicole finally stopped tossing, and asked suspiciously: "Your business center?"

Stan, director of Beta City's integration department, showed a sincere smile: "Yes, it's not officially open yet, and Miss Paladin is expected to be the first guest to conduct a large transaction with our Beta City."

Another urban area surrounded by a high wall of thorns is located in a huge circular square. Looking at the shops and signs surrounding the square, Nicole was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses.

Take a look to the left, the food and agriculture fruit and vegetable area, the fresh poultry area, the nursery stock and herb area...

Look at the right, cotton and leather area, quilt and garment area, textile packaging area...

Looking forward, the magic tool area, magic material area, magic weapon area...

After looking around, the transportation area, daily life department store area, building materials decoration area...

Deep alleyways extend out of each area, signboards stand like trees, and people are constantly busy.Around the square, on the rails that go deep into the roadway, the trucks that are several sizes larger than the mine carts are full of goods.

Seeing more than a dozen trucks passing in a row, carrying full grain bags, with the words "rye" written on them, and roughly calculating that each truck was at least one ton, Nicole's eyes widened.

Xia'andia also produces grain, but not only are there few varieties and low quality, but the amount that can be exported is very small.This time when she came to Beta City, she also shipped a few hundred kilograms in order to increase the variety of goods.Twenty kilograms per bag, [-] to [-] bags, in the settlements on the Shenyun Plateau, such goods are bulky enough.

Of course it was the former Godfall Plateau...

Stan asked from the side: "Miss Actor, what goods did you bring? Bartering is also possible, can you show me the list?"

"Uh……"

The girl paladin, who had always been righteous, felt guilty, and timidly reported the largest amount of magic ore.

"Seven varieties, each less than a ton?"

Stan said in a regretful tone: "The business center is a bulk goods trading area, which provides wholesale services for living and production materials for various settlements on the Shenyun Plateau. Miss Actor, your goods have not reached the minimum required for wholesale transactions. The quota can only be traded in our adventurer center."

"I... I am here on behalf of Xia Andia!"

Nicole lowered her head to hide the blush on her face. The scale of goods being transported by this huge square caused a terrifying crit damage to the part of justice she upheld that belonged to the merchant.

She had never seen such a terrifying...justice in the market of King Kester's capital.

"Ah, that's not a problem. Although the amount is a little smaller, after all, he came on behalf of the settlement. The honor of the first guest of the Beta City Business Center is awarded to Xia Andia."

Stan's tone was still gentle, but to Nicole's ears, it sounded like a sharp sarcasm: "Isn't there thousands of people in Xia'andia? Why are there so few productions?"

The maiden paladin was undergoing a baptism on an unprecedented scale in the business center. Even if Li Qi didn't see it with his own eyes, he could predict her expression.

The intensive trade model of Beta City Commercial Center has never been seen in Finn's mortal world.

Like the composition of power in the Finn world, the material trade related to civilians is scattered in the hands of merchants in various kingdoms and duchies.And the material trade related to the extraordinary is scattered among the business association, the loyal court, and the extraordinary classes of various countries.

This is the first time that such a huge bazaar to facilitate transactions, improve efficiency, and open up the needs of ordinary people and extraordinary classes has appeared in Fern.Even in Youxiang, which has a population of one million, material exchanges are also part of the distribution of power. The white robes of Youxiang Zishan Loyalty Church have always been very democratic in this regard.

The establishment of such a business center is to serve the development goals of Beta City.

The Godfall Plateau has a vast territory, attracting countless adventurers to set foot in.Just in the area to the north near the Kester Kingdom, the floating population is not [-], but [-] to [-] in a year.

Floating populations will precipitate permanent populations. Not all adventurers are keen on visiting dungeons and digging dark elf ruins, a high-risk, high-reward business. Just like the gold rush in the earth world, there are countless sellers following the adventurers. Hoes, box lunch sellers, trash pickers, and even many civilians who just want to find a peaceful life without a lord or a priest.

In the previous public trial conference, only leaflets were pasted on several major traffic arteries, and 5000 to [-] people were attracted within a few days, indicating that this area already has a considerable number of permanent residents.

The settlement formed by these people will definitely not be as large as Xi'andia.That is to say, dozens of people and hundreds of people live together in a house.When Tina and the others were investigating this area, they found hundreds of such small settlements.

The environment where these settlements are located is very harsh, and the living conditions are difficult, but they have unique outputs, otherwise they would not have settled down.

The business center in Beta City will connect these settlements through material trade.It is not to absorb all the population of the settlements into Beta City, on the contrary, it is to support the development and growth of these settlements.

In the future, Beta City will not only be a large city with a population of more than [-], but also become a central hub that supports the entire northern part of the Shenyun Plateau and allows this area to accommodate a population of one million.

This is a pioneering move that far surpasses Fort Holy Light and Xia'andia, and it is also one of the foundations for Fei Gong to build the Godfall Plateau into a Datongist country.The princes of Kester, the paladins loyal to the court, and the paladins of Xi'andia are not high enough to understand such a career.

The Fort of Holy Light is digging up Rose's corpse on the Shenyun Plateau, and Xia Andia is trying to survive on the Shenyun Plateau, and it is the construction of a revolutionary base on the Shenyun Plateau!

Of course, the revolution has a long way to go, and it is just the beginning.Moreover, relying on the business center alone is not enough to accomplish things. The study classes for absorbing immigrants from all over Fern, and the adventurer center purely for extraordinary people, these three points are the key tasks that Beta City is promoting simultaneously.

In the initial stage of such a plan, what is most needed is a stable external environment.If this area becomes a protracted battlefield of blood and fire, it will be troublesome. If you want to fight, you can't fight on the reserved land that has been reserved.

After driving Nicole away, Li Qi maintained the commander's posture, resting his chin in thought.

Xia Andia, I can't let it go...

This man, Xia An, cannot die...

This neutral force is about to disappear, and there will be no room for maneuver between the Holy Light Castle and Beta City.

Leaving the Fort of Holy Light alone, without the constraints of the paladins, those people would definitely not sit back and watch the development of Beta City, which is a huge hidden danger.If you directly unplug the Fort of Holy Light, not only will you have to pay a huge price, but you will also face the counterattack of the Kester Kingdom and the loyal court.It is still the initial stage of Beta City, and there are not many resources to deal with it.

Li Qi was suddenly worried. He didn't know what the result of his counterattack against Xia Andia was.If the conflict between the two sides is intensified, will the Holy Light Fort change its mind to completely solve Xia Andia?
Fortress of Holy Light has already suffered a big loss on his side, so he should understand that it is impossible to solve himself immediately.But to solve Xia'an Dia, besides the legend of Xia'an, the total number of men, women and children in Xia' Andia is only a thousand people, so it shouldn't take much effort.

Except for the legend of Xia An...

Li Qi took a breath, and with just the roughest analysis, he could see that Xia An was in danger.

Goddess of Fate... No, the prophecy of Nistaveki, the Witch of Fate, may really come true in Xia An!
Li Qi's worries deepened a little later.

At another impromptu plenary meeting of the CPC Central Committee, everyone was outraged after watching the mirage spread by Fort Holy Light.

Aurora's body overflowed with cold white light: "The paladins of Xia'andia actually have such a face! It's really...disgusting! They are all civilians!"

Gambit shook his head, as if he wanted to clear the image of the paladin killing civilians from his mind: "The paladin's performance in the public trial meeting is just acting! They just pretended to bow their heads because they thought they couldn't beat us!"

"This should be a paladin from another faction under Xia An. Xia An's control over the paladins is very problematic." Tarrence is very sober: "Didn't the chief cardinal judge that there are different factions among them before doing this?" Do you want to stimulate them with the illusion of exploring the secrets of the Holy Light Castle?"

"I didn't expect them to be so radical, and I didn't know that their justice would fall on those civilians." Li Qi smiled wryly: "Xia An is really sitting on an iceberg with half of his butt, and with the other half of his butt plugged into a volcano..."

He sorted out his thoughts and told everyone what he had thought before.Although a decision has been made, following the principle of democratic centralism must be fully understood by everyone, and at the same time, valuable suggestions and opinions can be obtained.

The result was not surprising. Everyone agreed with Li Qi's decision, and everyone also made some suggestions.

Aurora said: "I want to serve as a diplomat, so I can suppress the arrogance of these paladins!"

On the public side, this matter is really worth considering, but on the private side, Li Qi is reluctant.

Wilson said: "Prince Rimaco's 74th Legion is still about ten days away from leaving, why don't you take the 98th Legion with you and organize an exercise to deter Holy Light Fortress and Xia'andia?"

This is a great idea to start right away.

Tarrence says...

The old man just felt that he should say something, opened his mouth, and found that he had nothing to say.

He coughed twice, and was about to remedy it when Li Qi's Biliboy rang.

"Chief Cardinal, there is a halfling strongly requesting to see you."

It was Round Hook. His tone was timid. He probably felt that what he reported was a bit of a fuss: "He has been yelling that the paladins in Xia'andia are dangerous, and hope we can help the paladins."

Halfling?
Li Qi was suspicious, and Yuangou added: "He said he has inside information about the Fort of Holy Light."
