Chapter 471 Barter, the sincerity of Waterdeep City
Bilao came back soon.
He hesitated and said: "The merchants in Waterdeep City over there want to ask you if you really don't need this dock and warehouse.
If they really don’t need it, can they be allowed to exchange it for land elsewhere?”
Hill was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean? Where is the land?"
Bilao said respectfully: "They said that if the customer only intends to invest, it is better to directly exchange it for territory.
Sword Coast has been developing rapidly recently, and all the land that can be sold along the coast and is suitable for port construction has been basically bought up by these chambers of commerce, regardless of whether it is good or bad.
This liquidated chamber of commerce once bought a piece of land along the coast of Sword Coast.
If you are interested and want to buy it, they can exchange it for a larger piece next to it, and the value will only be higher in the future.
Otherwise, if you continue like this, even if you rent the pier at market price, you probably won't be able to recover the cost in 1,200 years.
It will take hundreds of years, why not bet on the future of the Sword Coast."
Hill thought about it and understood what the merchants in Waterdeep City meant. They wanted the dock and warehouse very much, but even if they raised the money, they would not buy it at Hill's final transaction price.
That Woking man had been so irritated by Hill that he wanted to overwhelm Hill financially.
Judging from his crazy behavior, it seems likely that he did not spend his own money.
In other words, the money from Wojin Temple is beyond what ordinary businessmen can compete with.
But for businessmen, no one wants to do a loss-making business, no matter how good the future is.
But they also felt that although Hill had money, he had no interest in doing business.
In this terrible world, the richest people are definitely not businessmen like them.
And Hill is someone who dares to scold Woking directly! They can't afford to offend him.
I simply took out a piece of land that I had been hoarding for many years.
The places they can't develop may just take some effort for these terrifying powerhouses.
Hill thought about it for a while, then tilted his chin towards Bilao: "I want to know the specific location."
He continued to tap the +1000 button mechanically, waiting for the laborer to release the bay map.
Hill took a quick look and understood why this huge piece of coastal territory was exchanged.
The location seems good, between Waterdeep and Neverwinter.
But one-third of the territory is actually the Swamp of the Dead.
Bilao drew a line on the map: "What they exchanged with you is the best piece. Although they also attached part of the Swamp of the Dead territory, this is the country and city on the Sword Coast willing to give up their territory.
the only reason.
What they are betting on is that Neverwinter City will have to expand its territory in a few years. It is impossible to expand in other directions. The only open space is the manors and farms of nobles and powerful people. They can only go south.
The piece our auction house is planning to sell is actually just for back-up. It is actually larger than their piece, but it includes two-thirds of the Swamp of the Dead and a part of the Sword Mountains. It is the only better piece.
A place is a relatively large open space.
But to be honest, who would bother going to Neverwinter if they actually got here? Who would live near the Swamp of the Dead?
However, the two pieces of land can really be connected, which is probably why the Waterdeep City Chamber of Commerce still wants to buy it back.
If we talk about the value, it is indeed similar to your port terminal and warehouse. After all, the road connecting Neverwinter and Waterdeep is also within this land.
It’s also a business idea.
They think you are capable enough to set up a camp in that place."
Bilao firmly believed that it was Hill who finally got the dock and warehouse.
Even Alustriel, who has a huge treasure house, would not be so arrogant if he just clicked the price increaser so casually.
This was the first time he saw such a mage, as if he could really make gold by himself.
But the senior management of the auction has checked that the red gold brought out by this customer is the purest kind, and it is definitely not fake gold converted by the alchemist himself.
Billao was a little suspicious of this guest who was said to be a half-elf mage and had a large gold mine at home.
Hill mechanically tapped the button twice, then suddenly raised his hand, as if he had reported it both times?
He couldn't help but sneered, thinking that the people in Woking were so rich!
When he thought about Ferenriel, he couldn't help but burst into anger!
Why didn't Tyr kill her completely?
He actually saved her face and didn't tell her about his collusion with the Five-Colored Dragon Queen. Miriel, the goddess of joy, must have helped Wo'jin again.
This goddess, who is famous for her passion and romance, has always had a wide circle of friends, so it is normal for her to be able to save Wo Jin's life.
But Hill doesn't think Miriel will help Vol'jin like this in the future.
From the words of these bards, it can be heard that the goddess of joy seems to be cutting off her relationship with Wojin.
The reason why Hill dared to deal with Wojin's people so blatantly was not only because he heard the news that her divine power had been reduced again. He also felt the ban from the swaggering God's Favorite over there.
Vol'jin cannot directly contact the main material interface for at least a hundred years.
She, the God's Favored One, looks arrogant, but in fact she is fierce in appearance and very cruel in heart.
They may not even know where Wojin's treasure house is, otherwise how could believers of the goddess of wealth actually burn money and lose when competing with enemies who insult their goddess.
Hill raised his head and glanced across the room. The box was completely silent, except for the terrible anger and murderous intent.
He couldn't help but sneered.
One hundred years later, regardless of whether Hill himself is still in Faerûn, even if he is, Hill still feels that as long as Wo'jin dares to make trouble, he can definitely send her to Six Fingers again.
This guy can't even leave the Kingdom of God now, so he can't recognize Hill at all, and she has no chance to send a message to Talos, the God of Storms.
Hill is not afraid of his own safety. Even if Talos takes action, Hill is actually not afraid.
The gods in Faerun are indeed very powerful, but the many entanglements between them make every god wary when they take action.
It's fun to play here, but your hometown may be raided over there.
On the contrary, the legendary mages were more straightforward in their actions.
The reason why he is so cautious is because it concerns Aglaia's future, which is the most important thing now.
In silence, Hill acquired the expensive dock and the warehouse next to it.
He glanced at Bilao, who was respectfully waiting for him to speak: "When I take pictures of that territory, I'll invite the guests from Waterdeep City over! Tell them that I'm thinking about it."
After Bilau went out, he came back soon: "The people in Waterdeep City said that they hope they can take pictures of the land and exchange it with you.
They can't let you bear the loss alone, and they are also worried that people in Woking will cause trouble for you.
You can rest assured that the price of that piece of land is probably not as high as the value of your manor outside the city.
It is a blessing for them that you chose the merchants of Waterdeep."
Hill thought about it and realized that his complete disregard for a god made the merchants in Waterdeep City a little scared.
They deal with people in high positions all year round and are deeply afraid of offending anyone who is powerful.
Even if Hill doesn't care about the extra money he spent to buy the dock today, if the land value in Silver Moon City becomes higher in the future, Hill, who only has a piece of waste land in his hand, might be dissatisfied.
They are not sure that Neverwinter City will definitely expand.
Hill simply agreed. He had no interest in getting involved with these businessmen. In his heart, this territory was really suitable.
As for the monsters in the Swamp of the Dead, Hill is not worried, but it just takes time to purify them.
As long as he builds the Mystery Lock and Magic Tower, he can take out the artifact oil painting and use it.
Trasil now actually belongs to the World Tree God System, and the gods of this world will not react much even if they feel it.
As long as the sun god from Trasil doesn't come over, the guy here will
It's just that the forces in the Sword Coast are intertwined, and they may even be attacked by orcs.
No one wants to have to give up their hard work to others in the end.
Hill looked at the scope of the territory.
His labyrinth forest array can be placed at the easternmost point. Hill can use some legendary materials to make this magic array fixed in this world and no longer dissipate with Hill's departure.
Then his magic tower still needs to be placed on this side, slightly closer to the main road.
Where Hill is stationed, the natural atmosphere will naturally become stronger. If it is on the west side, it will easily affect Aglaia.
He built the magic tower a little higher, and he could just use the oil painting from above to fight the evil light once a day.
As for the ocean on the west side, you only need to build the water system's mystery chain, and you don't need to include the entire Swamp of the Undead.
Aglaia needs to work hard to purify it there.
If you don't make any contribution to this world and just preach in this world, you will only be doomed by the will of the world.
Whether they are powerful or weak, the foreign gods who have truly established themselves in the world of Toril have actually made their own contributions to this world.
Sometimes, the evil gods work hard to accomplish something earth-shattering and evil, but for some unknown reason they are destroyed by some inexplicable little thing. It actually has something to do with the tendency of the world.
In fact, it is the same in any world, but the prerequisite is that the world is complete and has enough power to resist.
Hill decided to place Aglaia's temple on the west side of the road, so that there would be no more undead things that could threaten the road.
And if anyone passes by, they can get pure water given by the sea god Aglaia.
If this passerby is willing to offer a gift to Aglaia, he can get a holy water that is enough to resist some undead and evil breaths.
Those who dare to risk their way through this section of the road have their own means, and a dose of holy water is enough to allow them to pass safely.
Hill nodded with satisfaction and waited for the other party to deliver the trading items.
