Chapter 71 Buying Slaves {6.2k}
"Your Majesty, the enemy's route has begun to change!"
The court mage who controlled the huge crystal ball suddenly became energetic and quickly woke up His Majesty Will, who was closing his eyes to rest.
After observing the huge Goblin army in the Green Mountains yesterday, His Majesty Will, after learning the news, asked the court mage to control the crystal ball in real time for him to watch.
There is no way, the number of this army is too terrifying. The population of Hydeline Kingdom is only over 10 million. Even if slaves are included, it is only about 15 million, and the enemy's army starts at least one million.
It would be fine if it was just an army of one million people with average strength, but the problem is.
From the information obtained from the investigation, it can be seen that the strength of individual soldiers in this huge army is at least that of warriors who have entered the rank!
There are many high-level warriors among them.
The Kingdom of Hydeline does not yet have the ability to quickly investigate more detailed information, but just what is known so far makes His Majesty Will anxious all day long, and he cannot eat well or sleep well.
He even began to regret why he had not agreed to the Forest Elf Kingdom's request for help before.
This army obviously annexed countless monsters in the Green Mountains and the Forest Elf Kingdom, and then created such a huge number of demon descendants.
If we had united with the Green Mountain Alliance when the demon was still weak and spent some money, I am afraid we wouldn’t have to face this terrifying and despairing army now, right?
In a state of rest, Will, who was mired in regret and trouble, suddenly heard the voice of his court mage. He quickly opened his eyes and looked at the huge green army along the huge crystal ball.
Soon, Will's face lit up.
The enemy has really turned!
Originally, this huge army was pointing directly at the Kingdom of Hydelyn, with the intention of destroying their kingdom. But now, the opponent turned a corner and marched towards the distance, brushing against the border of the Kingdom of Hydelyn.
Although it was unclear why the demon behind this army suddenly changed his plan, Will didn't want to get into it at all.
"Okay, this is a good thing! Great!" His Majesty Will laughed heartily, overjoyed.
The laughter released the huge pressure accumulated deep in his heart. Will calmed down and said excitedly, "Continue to observe the opponent's marching route to prevent the opponent from counterattacking."
Although Will felt that with the strength shown by the other party, there was no need for any conspiracy at all. He could just push them to the Hydeline Kingdom with force, but the reputation of the demon was too great. For this reason, it was not too much to be cautious.
, at least seek some psychological comfort.
"I invite you nobles to have a big banquet to celebrate tonight!" His Majesty Will gave the order to the guard standing beside him.
The celebration was a lie. Before the news spread among the high-level officials of the Hydeline Kingdom, Will planned to squeeze the fat pig nobles again and organize another war fund-raising event.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The guard bowed respectfully and nodded, then quietly stepped back to make preparations.
In the North District of Nicol City, there is a street dedicated to selling all kinds of slaves.
Sophia held Lan Feng's arm and looked curiously at the slaves locked in iron cages on both sides. Behind her, Aiolos, who was like an iron tower, followed silently, causing many people who originally saw Sophia to have some ill intentions to look at her.
I was stunned and quickly looked away, not daring to look any further.
Take one more look and it might really explode.
When a slave merchant saw Lan Feng and his party, his eyes suddenly lit up and he stepped forward to solicit business.
"Sir, why don't you come and see our slaves? The men are in good health and strong, and the women are proficient in housework."
"I want a high-quality slave, do you have one?" Lan Feng stopped and asked.
Just as the slave merchant was about to answer and boast, Lan Feng's words stunned him.
"Twenty male slaves, the minimum required strength is level three, and thirty female slaves. Not to mention proficiency in all aspects, I only need to be outstanding in one thing, and the housekeeper, who must have rich management experience and be able to
Arrange at least a hundred people to work in an orderly manner."
"Sir, your request is too high." The slave trader said with a bitter smile.
"Third-level strength can already dominate some small towns. A master of this level of strength can easily become a captain, whether he joins a noble as a guard or a kingdom, let alone thirty third-level slaves.
Even if there are three of you, there are not many slave merchants here who can fulfill your request."
"As for the female slaves you mentioned who have the same outstanding skills, such as cooking, I have an orc cook slave who has been cooking in restaurants for more than 20 years, and a human female slave who has pretty good pruning and gardening skills.
, the other party once worked for an earl as a gardener and a housekeeper for seven years, and I also have two talented housekeeper slaves here who are proficient in management."
"Take me to have a look." Lan Feng nodded lightly after listening to what the other party said.
Although he knew from Leto that there was an organization that sold slaves of high quality, Lan Feng was not in a hurry right now.
The goblin army is marching outside. After arriving in the monster forest, they can start to harvest resources continuously. Now he only needs to do what he should do as a Viscount of the Radiant Empire.
Of course, you still can't relax in practicing the Phantom Codex every day, and follow the path of a war lord. In the end, you still have to gather the power of all living beings to cultivate your own body and power.
Raymond nodded with a smile and said something to a subordinate behind him, asking him to take a good look at the slave in the iron cage on the street. After that, he hurriedly trotted one meter in front of Lan Feng and the other three to prepare for this slave.
The young man who looked like a big shot led the way.
The slaves placed in iron cages on both sides of the street were mostly low-quality slaves and ordinary slaves, only for ordinary families or well-off families to watch and buy.
Really powerful wealthy merchants and nobles would definitely go directly to the slave merchants' slave bases to make selections.
Only there are the real fine products, the goods where slave traders can really make a lot of money.
Under Raymond's leadership and explanation, Lan Feng and the others soon arrived at the opponent's base where slaves were stored.
It is located on the third underground floor of a restaurant, with a basement area of several thousand square meters.
Half an hour passed.
Lan Feng finished selecting the goods, paid the deposit, and asked Raymond to deliver the slaves he purchased to the manor he just bought in two hours, and then pay the remaining money.
After Lei Meng bowed and nodded, Lan Feng and the other three left.
This time, Lan Feng went to the Dark Night Organization base that Leto introduced, which specializes in selling high-quality slaves.
Half an hour later, Lan Feng walked out of the Dark Night Organization's slave base with a satisfied smile.
The dark night organization recommended by Leto is indeed good and can perfectly meet Lan Feng's needs.
The price is at least 50% more expensive than what I saw at the Raymond slave merchant before.
However, Lan Feng, who destroyed the four kingdoms of the Underdark and the Forest Elf Kingdom, is estimated to have only a lot more wealth than all the nobles in the entire Hydelyn Kingdom put together.
Especially in the Forest Elf Kingdom, which has been accumulated for at least a thousand years, there are many secret pattern weapons, armors, artworks, gems and jade, and any one of them can be sold for hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins.
Gold is classified as an A9 grade metal in the universe, and its price is not low.
Now that the Blue Maple Brood is promoted from Apprentice Level 6 to Apprentice Level 7, it requires 5,000 tons of A7-level metal resources. If it were replaced with A9-level gold, it would only require 50 tons.
High-level resources can, in most cases, override the effects of low-level resources.
According to the weight of a standard gold coin in circulation in the Kingdom of Hydeline is 5g, then 10 million standard pure gold coins can meet the metal resource consumption of Blue Maple Brood's apprentices.
Similarly, because gold is an A9-level metal, it can be used as a substitute for other metals of the same level when you advance to the eighth-level apprenticeship and the ninth-level apprenticeship in the Brood.
To advance from the seventh-level apprenticeship to the eighth-level apprenticeship, the Brood requires 500 tons of gold. To advance from the eighth-level apprenticeship to the ninth-level apprenticeship, it requires 5,000 tons of gold.
According to calculations, if the three levels are all replaced by gold, then they will be 10 million gold coins, 100 million gold coins, and 1 billion gold coins respectively.
"The five kingdoms that were destroyed by me have a combined gold storage statistics of more than 30 tons, which is equivalent to more than 6 million standard gold coins of the Kingdom of Hydeline. As for a large number of other valuable collectibles and secret pattern weapons, if
If we can sell them all, it shouldn't be a problem to earn one to two hundred million gold coins." Lan Feng thought.
In fact, using gold to replace the current gap in A7-level metals can completely enable the Brood to meet the metal resource gap a few days ago or even earlier.
The reason why Lan Feng didn't do this was because there were enough A7-level metals for Brood Advancement waiting to be mined in the green mountains, so he kept the more than thirty tons of gold.
Higher-level metal resources can override the effects of lower-level metal resources, but not vice versa.
Keep these golds. After the Brood is promoted to the eighth or ninth level, the demand will be huge.
Moreover, even if the metal resources are sufficient, there is still a huge gap in energy resources, and it will still not be promoted to the seventh level, unless Lan Feng lets his army of goblins kill hundreds of thousands of each other to meet the energy gap.
"Perhaps, I can secretly establish an organization that sells high-value items to collect gold." Lan Feng thought to himself.
Although there are abundant metal resources on Kara, most of the high-grade metal veins that are easy to find and easy to mine have been mined. We really need to rely on the radar of the drop cabin to search for the veins everywhere, and then dig out enough high-grade metal resources.
That really requires a bit of luck.
A-level low-level metals are easy to find, but high-level metals are much harder to find. In the huge green mountains, 50,000 second-level goblins cooperate with radar exploration, and they dig day and night. A7 and above levels can be excavated every day.
The metal output is only a few hundred tons, and if it is refined into pure metal resources, it will be even less.
Moreover, most of these high-grade mineral veins are micro-ore veins. After digging for a day or two, the mineral veins will be exhausted, and no more ore can be dug out.
After thinking for a moment, Lan Feng felt that he could really spend some energy on this.
Of course, for the sake of safety, this organization that sells high-value items cannot be established in Lan Feng's current capacity. It can only secretly support an obedient subordinate and let him run the business of collecting gold and other high-grade metals.
This matter will become one of the most important things Lan Feng will do next in the Haidlin Kingdom.
After Lan Feng finished selecting the slaves and purchased some exquisite furniture, he had just returned to the manor when the two teams transporting the slaves arrived on time.
One was a slave purchased from Raymond, a slave merchant.
The other branch is a slave purchased from the Dark Night Organization.
The former, from the slave merchant Raymond, are mainly female slaves with certain outstanding abilities, such as cooks, gardeners, tea masters, pastry chefs, maids, etc., a total of thirty.
