I really don't want to hang up

Chapter 275 Goblin Trading
With reinforcements, the Highland Army won the final victory.

This tragic victory is destined to be recorded in the blood of all highlanders.

Because, on the day of victory, bad news came from the front.

The great highland emperor Pangwu Bonaparte led his troops to surprise the Kingdom of God. After the city was broken, raging flames burned in the city.

After the fire, the city walls of Shenbang collapsed in pieces, leaving only ruins.

And His Majesty the Emperor also disappeared in the fire.

Some people say that he died, died in this fire, this is the holy punishment from the saint.

Some people also said that they had seen this great Emperor His Majesty at the seaside.

Either way, it cannot solve a practical problem-the Highland Empire has no emperor.

The Highland Army, which had won a disastrous victory, had not had time to return to the court, and the logistics were in chaos.

And the city-states that were beaten and disabled were also lost, they didn't know where to go.

Surrender to the high ground?
To whom should I surrender?

Don't surrender, organize a counterattack?

Can you beat it?

To sum it up in one sentence - the land is a mess!

In this war, the only winner is the old shit-stirring across the sea - the Little United Kingdom.

The aftermath of the war did not subside until June.

Lu Deng and his party hurried back to the small town of Shalia.

The children in the town have gained weight.

In stark contrast to the children, it was Mr. Luden and his party, who had lost a lot of weight and were exhausted after days of running around.

After picking up the children, Lu Deng followed the shortest path, took the children for a brief stroll around Shenbang, and immediately set off on his way home.

Compared with when we started, there was one more woman in the team.

As for the missing child, Awu, he did not know when he returned to the team, and he was still the same as before, disdainful of playing with other children, preferring to be alone and meditate.

By the time the group boarded the ship again and returned to Little United Kingdom, it was already September.

In October, they set foot on the land of Wudu again, ending the trip.

In the same month, a big event happened in Fog:
Columbus is back!

He claimed that he had discovered the legendary land of choice and named it the New World!

Before Columbus returned, there was a lot of curses in the fog, and everyone still remembered the gold scam!
However, few people have paid attention to where Columbus's stocks went after the gold scam.

Most of the stocks were bought by Mr. Luden.

In other words, most of Columbus's harvest from this voyage went into Mr. Luden's pocket!
He brought back countless rare treasures, rare treasures.

Spices, silk, tea, ceramics, and most importantly. Gold!

The gold brought back by Columbus shocked the entire fog city!

The originally dull era of great navigation has ushered in the second climax!
Countless people are selling their iron, but they also want to buy a ticket to explore the New World!

With a single nautical chart, the captains can bring in hundreds of thousands of investments, and with food and fresh water for three months, they dare to set sail!
According to the statistics of later generations, in the second round of the climax of the era of great navigation, it was not the nautical explorers who benefited the most, but the shipyards.
The shipyard has stockpiled a large number of ships suitable for long-distance voyages, and sold them to navigators at a discounted price in a half-sell and half-free situation.

Of course, there is no such thing as a free lunch.

In order to obtain a ship, the navigator must sign an agreement, agreeing that [-]% of the income from the voyage will be used to repay the money for the purchase of the ship, and also pay a lot of insurance premiums!
Don't mention these little things.

Luden settled down in the fog again.

His career map also expanded from Wudu Wharf to the whole world!

A ship set sail and sailed to the New World.

Some ships rely on round-trip trade to make profits, while others go to open up plantations and residences, hoping to obtain longer-term benefits.

They quickly ran into a new problem:
It's too hard to rebuild civilization on a barren land!

It's nothing to work hard, it's just a hard process, and it's easy to die.

The shortage of labor has become the biggest distress of the plantation.

Until a new message came back to Wudu:
A navigator found a group of goblins in a hot land.

That's right, goblins.

The green-skinned guys who have disappeared on this land are still alive in a certain corner of this planet.

They have their own language and culture, and live a life of bare hair and blood, and the primitive cannot be more primitive.

Their only advantage is that they have a large enough number and a fast enough reproduction speed.

When the goblins were first discovered, everyone was disappointed.

For the goblins have nothing of value on them, no gold, no spices, no silk, nothing.

Just a bunch of green-skinned guys, that's all.

Soon, the best sellers in the land were discovered.

Batch after batch of goblins were sent to the ship and transported to the new world to work for the land reclamation.

In the beginning, only the defeated and captured goblins were bought and sold, and both sides maintained the pretense of civilization.

Later, the civilized lords in Wudu simply stopped pretending and went directly to capture the goblins.

The captured goblins will be treated differently according to the intensity of their resistance.

The most violent part of the resistance will of course die from the resistance.

Those who survived will not be killed if they do not cooperate. After all, this is too wasteful, and they will be castrated collectively.

According to the most scientific statement, this is called species evolution, survival of the fittest.

Let the rebellious goblins have no offspring, and after generations of screening, the surviving goblins will be more docile and harmless.

If human beings inflict such atrocities on themselves, it is easy to cause discomfort and make changes.

Fortunately, these green-skinned guys have nothing to do with humans. There is no law to protect their rights, and humans will not sympathize with these chattering goblins.

Especially the people of Shenbang, they are particularly hostile to goblins, after all, they have a blood feud with orcs for eight hundred years!
At a banquet, a slave owner who made a fortune by buying and selling goblins proudly announced,

"Humans will never do this to their own kind!"

The fourth year of the Era of Discovery was also the second year after Columbus discovered the New World.

Wudu, the company's annual meeting.

"I repeat, this is slander! It's slander!"

Mr. Luden blushed, stretched his neck, and argued with everyone,
"I didn't let them buy and sell goblins, and I didn't intend to make a penny from the goblin trade!"

This matter is really not Lu Deng's head.

There is no need for him to start at all, interests drive people to do this!
Everyone: .
Albert, the vice president of the company, took out a long list of products and read one by one,

"The company's best-selling products this year are as follows, anesthesia catch net, antique Shenbang slave box, shackles, leather whip"

After reading the product list, Albert asked helplessly,
"Can you explain why these products are on the company's shelves?"

"The products that appeared first on the market, we used them to improve and sell them! We have also suffered a lot of lawsuits for this!"

Lu Deng plausibly said,

"On every product, we have a label!"

To prove his words, Luden even took out a leather whip.

I saw a line of clear and conspicuous words printed on the whip:

"[Please do not use such items for goblin trading]!"
