Chapter 514 Looks like you've made a lot of money, right?
The elder smiled and said: "As expected of the Lord, we need at least 3,000 mercenary warriors to defend the oasis for a month. In this way, our Druid patrols can not only reinforce various places without any worries, effectively make up for the lack of transferred personnel, but also
Solving our biggest concerns about the Zerg Winter Offensive!"
Dali was shocked: "3,000 people! One month!"
Damn it, how many tens of millions do so many people cost for such a long time? You want to scare me to death! These mercenaries are no better than the regular army of the Kingdom. Although these people are not bad in terms of personal strength, in the end they are just guerrillas.
Brave, small team guerrilla warfare is extremely sharp, but large-scale group operations may not be as strong as professionally trained regular troops, but the appetite is indeed not small. If you don't open it, you will have to wait for a lifetime if you open it. What others are waiting for is to wait for you to burn your brows.
Ask for price!
Moreover, the professional quality of mercenaries varies. Of course there are desperate men, but this is naturally the best. But there are also quite a lot of veterans and ruffians in the starting lineup. These people are so powerful when they fight with the wind, and they will definitely be the first to run away when they are defeated.
.So we can only assist the regular army. But the regular army is dissatisfied. The regular army often says: "Their salary is several times our military salary. They are very capable. If there are difficulties, they will go first!"
Because of this, there was a big taboo in the previous life: mercenaries and regular troops must not be organized into the same unit, which would affect the morale of the regular army and affect the internal stability of the army.
The elder smiled and said: "Yes, yes, this is the most elite and most famous Crusher mercenary group in the Dwarf Kingdom contacted by General Gimli. The asking price is 30 million gold coins!"
——Ah poof! 30 million!!! Five thunders struck! It was so powerful that I almost fainted!
What is the concept of 30 million? It is enough for you to build another Silithus city! With the current market, that is 10 million in cash! I am a time traveler. I know that the gods and demons will not collapse within a few years, so I am getting more and more angry.
, foreigners are all interested in gods and demons, so I can safely spend money to acquire land and buy talents in the game, but I am not rich enough to spend this huge sum of money to hire soldiers.
Damn it, the king was right before. Just give up on this useless land.
Dali quickly shook his head and waved his hands: "No money, no money! Definitely not 30 million!"
The elder's eyes narrowed into slits when he smiled: "The Baron is so rich and jeweled, of course he doesn't have 30 million, but there is still 40 million! So for such a difficult task, we can only ask the Baron!"
——Ah poof! The aunt squirted hard all over the old guy’s face!
How do you know that your brother has 40 million! Dali originally had 17 million. He went to the disaster area to fight local tyrants and embezzled 28 million. Then a few days ago, he paid Osama a salary of 5 million, and he still had 40 million!
Okay, it seems that the rogue master in the sewers is not the only one who can tell how much money players have. This guy who is too old to die and is a thief also has this ability! Hey, whether it is players or 15 NPCs, they are all under the control of the system master.
If I say I don't know, I'm just kidding you.
Dali couldn't help but sigh, regretting that he shouldn't have come today. Oh no, it won't work if he comes tomorrow. This kind of system event is here. If it doesn't come, it won't be triggered. It will be triggered as soon as the player comes. Wait! This is inexplicable.
Where did the plot events come from? Was it created by Cangqiong Luan?
The elder smiled and said: "Don't worry, Baron, the benefits are great!" He took out a piece of golden paper and said: "This is a fiefdom order authorized by the king and signed by the mayor of this city. If Baron Dali helps pay 3,000 mercenaries to hold on for a month
The fee is 30 million, then this municipal fiefdom order is yours!"
Dali was shocked: "Municipal fiefdom?" You can buy land with money in the game? This is the first time I've heard of it! The conditions are unbelievable! And I've only heard of baron, viscount, and earl fiefdoms. I've never heard of any municipal fiefdoms.
Order? Which one is this from?
The elder said solemnly: "Exactly! This fiefdom order is not a noble fiefdom order. It is a land fiefdom order chartered by the king. You can have your own land without a title! It is usually issued to soldiers with major military exploits or those who have the most outstanding achievements.
Beloved by shinv. And this fiefdom is extremely rare, it is municipal-level land
!" As he spoke, he looked at the mountains on the edge of the sand table map with his stick and drew a circle: "The land rewarded by the king is designated on the border of the Silithus Mountains. You can use the fiefdom order to enclose land anywhere here! How about it, City?
The first-class fiefdom order is such a large piece of land, the area is more than a thousand times larger than the Baron's Dawn Island!"
Damn it! No wonder the king is so generous. Do you want these deserts to be used for eggs? Are you selling sand to construction sites? Are you here to help me guard it?
Dali sighed: "It's useless even if the king rewards me as the king of the desert. What use do I need these lands?"
The elder said seriously: "Actually, this is the king's mutually beneficial strategy to attract investment. We need adventurers to help develop the frontier and consolidate national defense. Although it seems that this is an unseasonable world now, it has been a world that we have carefully cultivated for several months.
The tree will burst out of the ground. It will soar to the sky, and it is unstoppable.
At that time, the climate of the entire Silithus will be reversed centered on the World Tree. At that time, under the magical power of the World Tree, the desert will become fertile soil. At that time, the baron with a municipal fiefdom order can
It’s so big! You know, generally only the duke’s fief area reaches the municipal standard!”
The officials immediately agreed: "Yes, a baron can obtain a duke, and then a large area of fertile land can be obtained. This is a conceptual investment that cannot be missed!"
——Ah poof! Brother, I have already accepted the idea of speculating in real estate, land, and securities, but the most unbearable thing is the concept of speculation! Isn’t this just trying to satisfy your hunger with watermelon eggs? What is mutual benefit? To put it bluntly, I just hope that players will help take the lead here!
Dali sighed: "Then, elder, have you ever thought about what will happen if we fail?"
All the officers immediately became angry and said generously: "People are where the tree is, and when the tree dies, people die. If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent person! I swear to live and die with the World Tree!"
For a moment, the chandelier was shaking with pride and ambition, and Dali was dumbfounded by the overwhelming momentum of these strong men and cowered away!
The elder burst into tears and said: "Lord Baron, the will of all generals can be learned from heaven and earth! After several battles in this life, we have no way back. Once the oasis is lost, Silithustian will definitely not be able to stop the large-scale attack of the Zerg.
All our previous hard work has been ruined! Let’s fight! The withering wound healing yao you want will be wrapped on us, and the demonized krypton gold enchanted bang will be given to you as much as you want!”
Only then did Dali come to his senses in a daze, "Oh shit, what kind of show are you acting in? Aren't you bitching about me?"
Dali's eyes stared blankly as he turned to the Pinhai area in the eastern part of the sand table. If a land was sealed here and a seaport was built, wouldn't it be possible to connect with the New World? Moreover, the New World and Silithus are both in the southern part of the world of gods and demons, so they are much closer.
Having your own seaport city in the Elf Kingdom can bring you a lot of conveniences. At least customs issues are not a problem.
At that time, I did nothing but grow food and became the world's number one farmer! This solved the most troublesome and man-controlled food problem for lord-level players in previous lives.
And the fleet should also be formed by then? I will be the world’s number one shipping king!
When the time comes, hundreds of soldiers will spend a lot of money to dig a canal across the territory, and my warship fleet will be able to enter the hinterland of Silithus and bombard the pests! YY is over. In short, the future is indeed very bright? This concept
Still good?
Okay, isn't it just 30 million that comes from corruption? It seems that the system with so much money can't stand it any longer and is trying to find a way to torment me? Okay, brother, it's better! It's better than suddenly meeting a few master gangsters.
He punched each other vigorously and said with enthusiasm: "Okay! I'll pay for it!"
The officers present suddenly stood up and applauded continuously.
——System prompt: You have funded the military expenditure of Silithus with 30 million gold coins! You have obtained the "King-Designated Silithus Border Municipal Fiefdom Order", your reputation in the kingdom +30,000! Your kingdom merit +300,000!
The elder excitedly gave Dali an affectionate hug: "You are worthy of being my little friend, and worthy of being the youngest and most promising Baron! He is much more far-sighted than that Clan Guild!"
Huh? Dali was suddenly startled and asked in surprise: "What happened to the Cang Qiong Guild?"
The elder shook his head: "Without vision, courage, and strength, we are not strong enough to take on big responsibilities. Therefore, we cannot hand over the eggs of our Sand Scorpion Queen to them!"
Dali was surprised and asked: "Eggs of the female sand scorpion?" Does this thing sound familiar?
The elder smiled and said: "Exactly, when the World Tree was sown, it aroused the vigilance of the Zerg. The Zerg sent the Sand Scorpion Zerg to sneak into Silithus. We eradicated the threat in time before they developed and grew, and obtained the Sand Scorpion.
After several months of domestication, the egg of the female insect has escaped the control of the queen and can be used by us. We believe that the biggest enemy of the Zerg is
Zerg! So, please rest assured, Baron Dali. On the day when the baron territory is designated, we will give the eggs of the domesticated sand scorpion queen to the baron, and personally arrange a ceremony to hatch her. At that time, the queen will be the guardian of the baron territory.
Beast! She will build a huge underground nest under the barony, which can most effectively resist the invasion of the Zerg! This is the greatest help we can provide you!"
I remembered it! Isn't that the mission copy "Sand Scorpion Brood" organized by the guild a few months ago? I rode a coyote as a locomotive to pull monsters and solved the guild's big problem! After killing the boss at that time
, Ningshuangxue picked up an egg mission item! (Note: See Chapter 149 "The same city as me")
Damn it, if I have a bug queen in the battle and keeps laying eggs to build troops, the 30 million gold coins will be worth it! Can't afford it? Still think it's not cost-effective? Or don't you know that NPCs have this at all?
Backhand?
The elder said seriously: "Okay, time is urgent, I will contact the Crusher Mercenary Group immediately, and the Baron's solution and the demonized krypton gold enchanted band will be solved in one or two days!"
Will it be settled in a day or two? Okay! I seem to have made a lot of money from this business? Ha, hahaha!
