Wu Bei flew around and found that there were not many diamond trees on Mount King Kong, only more than 10 million trees, and one-third of them were not yet mature.
Li Shentu explained, "Even the Red Dragon Clan does not have the right to mine these diamond trees. After all the diamond wood is mined, it must be dedicated to the Gods. Only the low-quality diamond wood that the Gods do not want, the Red Dragon Clan is eligible to obtain part of it."
"
Wu Bei: "Oh, the Red Dragon Clan still wants to pay tribute to the God Clan?"
Li Shentu: "Except for a few races such as the human race, most races must pay tribute to the gods."
Wu Bei nodded and said, "Senior, it is not easy to turn these diamond wood into timber. I cut off half of the mature diamond wood. The rest will be mined by future generations."
In fact, he doesn't have to do this at all, after all, the resources on the mountain belong to him.
Li Shentu smiled and said, "Master Wu is a generous man, so I thank you very much."
"This is all what I should do. Senior, do you have any plans to continue attacking the Red Dragon Clan?"
Li Shentu nodded, "Tomorrow, I will lead my army to attack Chidu, the main city of the Red Dragon Clan. After capturing Chidu, the other cities of the Red Dragon Clan will be broken within a day's time."
Wu Bei: "Senior, the Holy Sect in my hand can travel between the Immortal Realm and the Holy Ancient Continent. If there are any needs here, I will try my best to satisfy them."
"Okay, if necessary, I will tell you as soon as possible."
Later, Wu Bei contacted Fang Li and ordered him to bring people to Jinwu City and Xiding City to manage the industries here.
At the same time, he returned to the secular world and brought Tao Ruxue, Tang Bingyun, Tang Ziyi, and Luo Ningdan to the Holy Ancient Continent. They were responsible for the management of resources, and Fang Li helped them select a group of subordinates.
Women are also idle at home. Now that they can go out to do things, they are naturally happy and try to do the things at hand well.
However, Wu Bei knew very well that if he wanted to manage so many industries, countless lands, and countless rare resources, even if his backend was the master, such a huge amount of benefits would inevitably arouse the covetousness of others.
That night, Wu Bei called his wife, Fang Li and others together. After some discussion, they decided to sell most of the fields and pastoral areas, and the price was very cheap. One acre of land only cost 500 kilograms of grain. Moreover, this
The money can be given again next year, and the fields can be used for planting.
Pastoral grasslands are even cheaper. One hectare of land only costs the price of one adult cow or ten adult sheep. The money can be paid off within three years.
Wu Bei did this after careful consideration. On the one hand, if he occupied too much land, the lives of ordinary people would be more difficult. After all, he would have to give him half of the cattle and sheep raised by the grain he received. On the other hand, he
I think this practice is also a meritorious deed.
When Li Shentu learned about Wu Bei's decision, he was very happy and immediately ordered people to post notices announcing that anyone who did not have fields or grazing land, or newly moved people, could get a piece of land or a pastoral area on credit.
As soon as this news came out, the whole country reveled and everyone settled the accounts and realized that such a low price was equivalent to giving away for free. So, almost every family bought a hundred acres of fertile land or a hundred acres of pasture. One hundred acres is what a family can afford
There is a purchase limit. If you want to buy more, the price will increase tenfold.
So, after three days of subscription, more than 90% of the land in Wu Bei's hands was sold, but there were still more than 500 million acres left. There was more left in the pastoral areas, with 3.5 billion acres left. For these,
Wu Bei was also rented out entirely to tenants who had the energy to plant and graze.
Collect rent regularly every year.
After all the land was sold or rented out, Wu Bei took a look at his merit monument and found that he had indeed gained more than 3 trillion ordinary merits.
Compared with farmland, Wu Bei focused on precious resources such as diamond wood.
King Kong Mountain is currently in charge of Tang Bingyun. Tang Bingyun brought dozens of followers from home, plus those sent by Fang Li and those who originally worked here. He has more than a thousand people under his command, responsible for the management and management of King Kong Mountain.
logging.
Previously, those responsible for harvesting the King Kong wood were all human slaves. They had worked on Mount King Kong for generations and lived a very difficult life. Tang Bingyun recruited these people and not only gave them high wages, but also ordered people to build houses for their families at the foot of the mountain.
These slaves used to work hard and without wages, and were treated like cattle and horses. Now they are no longer slaves, and they are treated like heaven and earth. Naturally, they cherish their current life very much.
Tang Bingyun found a group of experienced loggers to become managers. By referring to previous information and field surveys, she wrote numbers for all the diamond trees that could be harvested, and noted the age, quality, volume, etc., so as to facilitate
logging
The harvesting of diamond wood is a technical job. Workers have to use special diamond iron to make saws. It takes three to ten days to cut a tree of diamond wood, during which several or even dozens of diamond saws are used.
There are low-grade diamond wood, medium-grade diamond wood, high-grade diamond wood, top-grade diamond wood, and diamond wood core. Generally speaking, 90% of the diamond wood belongs to the low-grade and middle-grade ones, and only a few percent of the high-grade diamond wood.
The highest quality diamond wood only accounts for less than one percent.
High-grade diamond wood can have an obvious core of diamond wood, which is worth a hundred times the price of diamond wood. The wood core of adult high-grade diamond wood is only as thick as an arm, but the concentration of diamond power inside is more than ten times that of diamond wood.
Of course, the best diamond wood also has a wood core, which is more valuable and is generally collected as a treasure and rarely circulated in the market.
You can only know whether there is diamond wood core after cutting the tree open. Sometimes you need to try your luck. If you are lucky, you can get wood core from three or four trees; if you are not lucky, you may not be able to get it from ten or twenty trees.
Wood core.
On this day, when the lumberjacks were cutting down the tree, they found a top-quality diamond core. Wu Bei was very interested and rushed to the scene in person. He saw that a huge diamond tree with a diameter of more than three meters had been chopped down, and a bowl was exposed in the cross-section.
It has a big mouth and a golden wooden core with purple-red runes!
Wu Bei touched the wooden core with his hand and felt the strong and pure divine power of Vajra. His eyes lit up and he said, "This wooden core is a treasure that even money cannot buy!"
Afterwards, he took out the White Tiger Immortal Sword and cut open the diamond wood himself. However, he did not expect that the best King Kong was so hard that even his White Tiger Immortal Sword could not cut it apart. In the end, he still used a woodcutter's tool to cut the diamond wood into pieces.
Open it, even if he did it himself, it still took him half a day.
Finally, he held in his hand a wooden core that was as thick as a bowl, completely smooth, and covered with purple-red textures on its surface. This wooden core was about 18 meters long and extremely heavy.
He took off a piece of wood core and put it on a fairy sword. Suddenly, purple and red runes appeared on the surface of the fairy sword, and an astonishing sword energy spurted out a foot long, extremely sharp!
Just when Wu Bei was studying the diamond wood, Fang Li suddenly rushed over. He was panting and said, "Master, something happened! The Shadow Kingdom led its troops into the Red Dragon Clan and took away a lot of territory!"
Wu Bei frowned, "What kind of force is Shadow Country?"
