Cthulhu descends

In the human kingdom of Gods Continent, two kinds of food are the main food.

One is snow rice, which is similar to rice, but it is particularly fond of cold and humidity. It is cultivated in winter and harvested in spring; the other is fire wheat, which is resistant to drought and heat. It is cultivated in summer and harvested in autumn.

In addition to these two staple foods, there are other miscellaneous grains, one of which is coarse wheat.It grows similar to wheat, but it is fuller, but the taste is rough, and it is not nutritious and not easy to consume. It is generally used to feed piggies.

However, compared with fire wheat, rough wheat has a characteristic. It has strong vitality and is not only drought-resistant, but also cold-resistant!It can be said that it is one of the few grains that can be cultivated in extremely cold regions.The orc tribe lives in the north of the source of ice and snow, which is an extremely cold and extremely dry place. Among the grains that can be cultivated, coarse wheat is their staple food.

Compared with the richness of the land in the south of the human country, the orcs have always been in short supply of food. The rough wheat that almost no one wants on the human side, if sold to the orcs, might really be able to sell for a gold price.

And what Brad Pete said was making Li Xie's heart beat faster.

Now his Chrysanthemum City has fully reclaimed arable land and developed the land contract system, so the grain production can be predicted to be a bumper harvest!The next spring harvest will not only saturate the granary, but also produce a large amount of grain.And if these grains can be sold to the orcs, wouldn't they be similar to gold?You know, Li Xie sells snow rice.

"Brother Pete, if you help people transport food to the beast clan to sell, I wonder if you can also help me to buy and sell food? As for the commission, I will give you [-]% of the profit." Li Xie still doesn't know how much he can earn, but, according to the logic, others can at most Give a commission of [-]% of the profit.Even if it is rich, it will definitely not exceed [-]%, and Li Xie will directly give [-]%.If this deal is negotiated, it must be a profitable business.

Brad Pete shook his head and said, "God of War! The generosity of Brother Xie made me really want to accept this deal, but unfortunately, our dual-knife mercenary group has no way to transport the orcs."

Li Xie frowned: "Didn't you transport it?"

Brad Pete said: "Of course, more than once. It's just that those routes belong to the people who hired us, and we didn't develop them ourselves. For the glory of mercenaries and the oath to God of War, we will neither disclose Going out, it is impossible to tell others, and it is even more impossible to do this business by yourself."

Li Xie nodded. He will not force too much on these professional ethics, because as long as it involves the oath to the gods, it is impossible for guys with extremely firm beliefs in the Gods Continent to violate it!Then he asked again: "Then can you tell who is doing this business?"

Seeing Brad; Pete shook his head, Li Xie gave a wry smile, and continued: "My little brother is very interested in this business, I think Brother Pete should know more, why don't you tell me in detail, this, does it violate your oath?"

"You can have this." Brad; Pete smiled and explained to Li Xie the details of doing business with the orcs.

Among them, it involves the relationship between the orcs and humans.

In the Continent of the Gods, the area where humans live is undoubtedly the most fertile area. In addition to the peace-loving elves, the orcs from the source of ice and snow, and the demons from the dead land, all want to send troops to the human country to occupy the land here.

Demons are discriminated against by all major races, and it is almost impossible for them to move, so the biggest threat to human beings is the beast race.

There have been several times in history that the orcs attacked the human country. Therefore, the transactions with the orcs are strictly monitored by various countries, and some transactions involving the livelihood of the orcs are even strictly prohibited by the countries.Buying and selling grain is the first thing that is prohibited. Anyone who finds out that they are trading grain with the orcs will be shot to death.

It's just that there are profits, which will inevitably make some businessmen take risks.

However, the danger first comes from all human countries, especially the Anjou Empire in the north, which is the most severe. As long as it is found in the north, it does not care whether it is a grain transaction with a neighboring dynasty. In short, it is better to kill the wrong than to let it go.

After all, if the orcs have more food and become more powerful, the most dangerous thing is the Anjou Empire.

Therefore, how to bypass the Anjou Empire's eyeliner and send food to the orcs is a big problem.

The second danger comes from the orcs themselves.

The orcs are warlike and bloodthirsty, and have a bad temper, which determines that it is difficult for them to be as orderly as the human kingdom. Except for a few races, many orc races are like rough barbarians.And those who can do business with humans are only a few orderly beast races, such as the beast king ligers, foxes, and wolves.Before reaching the territory of these beast races, if they encounter other beast races, even though the beast king strictly forbids them to snatch the food team that comes to do business, it is a pity that the violent and hungry beast race can't control so much.

The third danger comes from the environment. The environment of the source of ice and snow is only a little better than the dead land, but if there are natural disasters such as blizzards and avalanches on the way, the possibility of annihilation of the entire army is very high.

In short, without a safe path and strong strength, it would be wishful thinking to do business with the orcs.And if you can do business with the orcs, not just food, but any business, you can find that the orcs are such a generous and wealthy race.

Now Li Xie has the strength in his hands, and there are experienced veterans like the Dual Swords Mercenary Corps who can be hired. What is lacking is a way to avoid the eyeliners of various countries.

In this way, Li Xie immediately thought of using a space ring, but the idea just passed by. The space ring is expensive and its capacity is limited. Food is not a small item, and daily necessities must also be available in quantity, which determines that it must be in large quantities. The space ring supports the transportation. Once an accident occurs, the loss will not be ordinary. The risk is undoubtedly countless times higher, and it has reached the limit that is not worth doing.

As for other ways, Li Xie must find another way.

After all, the orc clan is undoubtedly a gold mine, and Li Xie's love of money made him unwilling to give up this avenue.Even if he doesn't love money, the development of Chrysanthemum City and the improvement of his own strength will require a lot of money.

A group of people chatted and drank, and five days passed quickly. The airship of the Double Knife Mercenary Group finally reached the sky above Munster City, and when it was close to Munster City, there were many more Kirov airships in the sky, and they were occasionally seen There are summoners flying in the air, and there are even tenth-rank sword masters and magicians flying around. These are rare things in the human country for a hundred years.

Although the city of Munster is called a city, it does not have any city walls, nor does it have an overall planning and construction, let alone a city owner.The entire area near the cemetery of the gods is about the size of hundreds of chrysanthemum cities, which is enough to accommodate [-] million people. They are all called Munster City. Otherwise, some of the main roads to Munster City Next to it, there are landmarks telling you that you have arrived at this adventurer's paradise.

The buildings in this area are dense in some places and sparse in others. Near the edge of the cemetery of the gods, there are dense hotels, inns, exchanges, shops, etc., which are much more prosperous than other places in Munster City.

As for the cemetery of the gods, it was the entire area south of Munster City.Near the city of Munster, there is a boundless forest. Looking south from the air, you can still see the shadow of some mountains, and it is shrouded in fog and cannot be seen clearly.Even if Li Xie was at an altitude of several hundred meters, the Big Bang Dynasty and the Tudor Dynasty looked like a big manor, but when looking at the cemetery of the gods, he couldn't see the end at all. It is still unclear how big the cemetery of the gods is.

Li Xie followed the two-knife mercenary group to a place called Leisure Station. There are only a few hotels, a tavern, a few blacksmith shops, a large exchange, as well as the Continental Chamber of Commerce, the Mercenary Union and the Summoner Association. office.In addition to these buildings, there are several residential areas that can accommodate hundreds or thousands of people, most of which are empty.

These residential areas are usually not inhabited, and are only provided as temporary residences for some relatively large number of mercenaries.

The double-knife mercenary group settled in one of the residential areas.These residential areas are provided free of charge, even the various mercenary guilds in Munster City have shared services, and registered mercenaries can enjoy discounts or free of charge, and their expenses will be borne by the mercenary guild.

The so-called mercenary guild is a general term that can refer to all mercenary groups, but it actually refers to the three major mercenary groups. Almost all the money they earn under the name of "mercenary guild" is used in The welfare of all mercenaries is never selfish, so these three major mercenary regiments are also highly respected mercenary regiments.

"I'll report to the mercenary guild office first," Brad Pete said.

This is the rule of all mercenaries. When they arrive at a place with a mercenary guild office, they must report for registration. They must make a simple record of what they will do, how long they will stay, and who will come.

"I'll go with you." Li Xie thought that he was fine in the residential area, so why not go for a walk together to see the world.

Walking all the way, Li Xie asked: "Brother Pete doesn't look like he's here for vacation. I wonder if there is anything to do in Munster City? If there is something important, we can slow down the capture of Warcraft."

Previously, Li Xie always thought that the Double Swords Mercenary Group came here for vacation, but seeing that there are not many buildings in Munster City, it seems that it is not a good place for vacation. I'm not on vacation in Sturt City, but I have business to do.

Brad Pete said: "It's nothing important. I just have nothing to do. I want to enter the cemetery of the gods to find the magic crystal. By the way, I can see if I can find any relics. It's an adventure game. You know, our servant Bing just doesn't like to stay in one place for too long, and he doesn't like to be too idle."

"What is a magic crystal?" Li Xie heard this for the first time.

Brad Pete took out a longan-sized red crystal with rough surface and irregular shape, and said: "This is the magic crystal. After death, monsters may leave such crystals, and we call them magic crystals. In fact, you often see, for example, space rings, crystal cards, and gems inlaid with scepters are all made of processed magic crystals, but the original magic crystals are rarely circulated on the market, so you may not have seen them."

Li Xie looked at Brad; the magic crystal on Pete's palm, the pupils shrank for a while, and the little heart was galloping!
