Chapter 6 An unexpected beginning

Ten days passed quickly.

During these ten days, the entire Ximu Village bloomed with unprecedented vitality.

For the high reward offered by Yamu, almost the entire Ximu Village mobilized.

At the beginning, because they were worried about the curse that existed in the legend, only some very old people set out and headed towards the dense forest in a group.

But soon, as they achieved some results and collected some green stones from the dense forest, and Yamu also purchased these green stones for five silver coins as agreed, the entire Ximu Village immediately boiled.

From the decrepit old people to the young and strong young people, to the newly sensible teenagers and women, everyone was mobilized.

Suddenly, the entire Ximu Village was completely empty.

Except for those children and a few people who really didn't know the way or couldn't move vigorously, almost everyone set off and hurried over.

Beast?

There were more than a dozen people walking in groups, and there were many skilled hunters. It was hard to say who was afraid of who.

curse?

The legend of Fearless is nothing more than superstition. Over the years, not many people have died. Most of them are just rumors spread by the older generation.

Even if there really is a so-called curse, they are still willing to do it.

Dying poor for the rest of your life is much scarier than being cursed.

In a short period of time, the entire Ximu Village erupted into a fanatical atmosphere.

Under the leadership of the old leader of Ximu Village, they can gain something every day.

On average, about ten green stones a day.

In conversion, that's five gold coins per day.

"Lord Amu."

In a relatively spacious and clean room, Kali watched ten green stones being delivered and silver coins equivalent to five gold coins being taken away, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.

"Five silver coins and one green stone, isn't the price too high?"

He couldn't help but look at Yamu: "Five gold coins a day is one hundred and fifty gold coins a month. Isn't this a little bit?"

He thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't find the right words to describe Yamu's actions.

What is the equivalent of a monthly expenditure of one hundred and fifty gold coins?

Even in the previous market, the money Yamu Ming could collect in a month was just over a hundred gold coins.

With this little money, you have to share most of it with others, leaving only a small amount for yourself.

And now just here, he has taken out so many gold coins.

Kali really doesn't know how to describe this kind of prodigal behavior.

In his opinion, the price of five silver coins per piece was actually completely unnecessary.

Judging from the previous situation, one silver coin is actually enough.

"Don't be so excited."

Compared to Kali's excitement and reluctance, Yamu acted very calmly. He was standing there smiling and seemed to be in a good mood.

I am indeed in a good mood.

During these ten days, in order to facilitate the acquisition of green stones, he had been staying in Ximu Village while continuing the liver breathing method.

After the Storm Breathing Technique was upgraded to Level 2, the proficiency obtained through the same training is now relatively less. However, after this period of hard work, Yamo still gained more than half of his Level 2 Breathing Technique proficiency.

According to this progress, as long as he practices it for a few more days, he will almost be able to upgrade the storm breathing technique to another level.

With this effect, he is naturally in a good mood.

But Cali was obviously not in such a good mood.

"Lord Yamu, let me go talk to that old guy."

He suggested: "Anyway, during this period, they have almost explored the road and tasted so many sweet things. They should be satisfied after thinking about it."

"If you lower the price to one silver coin, they will definitely accept it!"

As a businessman, controlling costs is almost instinctive.

So at this moment, he suggested this to Yamu.

Amu thought about his suggestion for a moment, and then shook his head.

If it is a normal business purchase, you can indeed try to reduce the price at this time.

Judging from the current situation, it is estimated that only Yamu himself needs this kind of green stone, which is equivalent to exclusive acquisition, and no one will compete with him.

Even if the price is reduced, the people in Ximu Village can only sell him things obediently.

But this matter obviously cannot be viewed purely from a commercial perspective.

This world does have extraordinary power, and the green stone does have strange magic power.

From this point of view, there probably is some kind of extraordinary power in that dense forest.

The witch's curse that the leader of Ximu Village mentioned before probably exists.

Out of this consideration, Yamu still firmly offered a high price.

Because to a certain extent, this is not only the price of purchasing green stone, but also a different kind of money to buy life.

He had seen the lives of the villagers in Ximu Village before, and they were quite simple and poor.

Although Amu didn't have a lot of conscience, he still had a little bit of it, and he wasn't so unscrupulous as to withhold the money he paid for his life.

Besides, he is not a person who is short of money.

From the moment he came to this world to this day, it’s hard to say in other aspects, but in terms of savings, Yamu himself is quite confident.

There are many people who are stronger than him in the entire Black Forest Territory, but there are probably only a few who are richer than him.

He didn't have anything big to do. He wasn't prepared to use the money to rebel, and he couldn't use it to earn interest.

There are no financial banks or anything like that these days, so gold and silver coins can only be left in a corner to gather dust.

Instead of doing this, it's better to use it to do something more meaningful.

Like throwing coins or something.

"rest assured."

Seeing Kali's face gradually becoming tangled, Yamu opened his mouth to comfort him: "I guess this money won't last long."

"ah?"

Kali raised his head, and his thoughts suddenly diverged after hearing these words: "Sir, are you ready?"

He had heard about the methods of some superiors.

For example, first give out generous bonuses to entice others to work, and then later kill the people doing the work and get the money back.

As a result, the work was done and the money was not spent.

Does Lord Amu also want this?

Kali's thoughts were divergent and his expression gradually became complicated.

"what's on your mind?"

Yamu's voice made him wake up instantly.

He looked at Cali who was deep in thought in front of him and was speechless: "Don't you notice that they are getting deeper and deeper recently?"

"Although the output has not changed significantly, the distance between them has become much deeper."

Kali thought for a moment and immediately understood what Amu meant.

In the past ten days, the appearance of green stones has actually been gradually decreasing.

Even though the number remains unchanged every day, basically around ten coins, the number of people participating is different.

In the first few days, only some old people in the entire Ximu Village went in to collect, and others joined later.

But as more and more people join in, the output remains unchanged, which in itself explains some problems.

"Lord Amu, what do you mean?"

"There probably aren't too many greenstone reserves in this place."

Yamu said: "The entire dense forest is so big, even if it is completely explored, it probably won't take a few months."

"Our expenditure is estimated to only last for a few months. It is not unlimited."

The reserve of greenstone cannot be unlimited, this is clear from the beginning.
