On the second day after arriving in the grassland, Liu Xingxing and Zhang Peng began to take action.
The two of them have long been familiar with their jobs and are so experienced that they don't need to worry about how to deal with it. Li Ziyu doesn't have to worry about it at all.
Zhang Peng's first choice was the Orc Empire to expand grassland commerce.
He first contacted Batu Buhe and asked him to help contact the Orc Empire's envoy.
What a coincidence, this time the envoy sent by the Orc Empire was still led by Morimoth and Moridia.
It was these two fox people who formed an alliance with Li Ziyu on behalf of the Orc Empire, and now they come to help Zhang Peng.
The Orc Empire was still very curious about Zhang Peng's request for trade. After Morimoth and Moridia met Zhang Peng, the three of them got along very well.
The two fox men asked to take a look at the products, and Zhang Peng did not hesitate to do so.
There is really everything you need in Zhang Peng's warehouse. Although some items are not much, it is not a problem to take out samples.
With the system in place, it would be easy for Zhang Peng to obtain whatever resources he wanted.
The two aborigines Morimos and Moridia had never seen so many commodities before. They were immediately shocked and their eyes were straightened. They agreed to the trade request without hesitation.
However, the two of them are just envoys. The final word does not count, and only the high-level officials of the empire must agree to it.
Zhang Peng did not hesitate and agreed to accompany the two men to the capital of the Orc Empire to meet the Tiger Emperor of the Orc Empire.
Liu Xingxing has also been busy recently, driving his treasure-hunting cat-man fortress around, surveying the terrain, drawing maps, studying the division of forces, looking for mineral veins and treasures, and is extremely busy.
The two brothers were busy, and Li Ziyu was naturally not idle. He cleaned the Ant-Man's nest step by step and expanded his troops.
A month passed like this.
After Zhang Peng met the Tiger Clan Emperor, he successfully convinced him to become the largest cooperative businessman in the Orc Empire.
A large amount of supplies began to be circulated in the Orc Empire.
The Orc Empire was established by the original Orcs of the grasslands. They have lived in this grassland for who knows how long.
The grasslands are rich in products. Before being invaded by the Life Empire, the Orc Empire was extremely wealthy.
This is undoubtedly a huge treasure house for Zhang Peng, and he can continuously expand his resources through resource allocation.
What you are dealing with is the lack of first-hand information.
Especially all kinds of goods that are luxuries to the Orc Empire, it is even more profitable.
For example, special fruits in the forest, insect medicines from the desert witch doctor, flowers and plants in the swamp, etc., are all luxuries to the people of the Orc Empire, but for Zhang Peng, they are in the system with the time traveler.
It's just a matter of exchanging what you have, you can have as much as you want.
Ever since the trade of the Orc Empire was opened, resources have flowed into the warehouse like water.
Even so, Zhang Peng was still not satisfied. He wanted more. After the Orc Empire stabilized, he began to look for cooperation with the nomadic tribes.
The Taomas tribe is of course the first partner.
This tribe was the first nomadic tribe that Li Ziyu came into contact with after coming to the grassland, and they had a good relationship with them.
The Taomas tribe had already traded with Li Ziyu back then, and both parties had a solid foundation.
After Zhang Peng arrived, transactions became more frequent.
As the first tribe to successfully trade with Zhang Peng, the Taomas tribe received Zhang Peng's care.
Zhang Peng is no longer the ordinary businessman he once was. After experiencing many things with Li Ziyu, he has also grown up.
He no longer only values immediate benefits, but pays more attention to long-term benefits.
For him, the Taumas tribe is not big enough, and the nomadic tribes are difficult to contact, and the grasslands are vast. It is impossible for him to rely on his own gopher fortress to run business everywhere.
So he needs a spokesperson to help him run.
The choice of this spokesperson is very important. Not only must it be big and strong, it must be able to stand firm in front of other nomadic tribes, and it must also be familiar with the grassland environment.
Zhang Peng chose the Taomas tribe and planned to use resources to cultivate them.
What the Taomas tribe received from Zhang Peng was not any luxury goods, but food, weapons, medicines, and all kinds of good things to enhance their combat effectiveness. Zhang Peng sold them to the Taomas tribe without any scruples.
For Gene Taomas, the chief of the Taomas tribe, this was like a golden mountain hitting his head.
The nomadic tribes are different from the Orc Empire. They are too scattered, with too many large and small tribes, and their wealth is scattered. They are not as wealthy as the Moist Empire.
They value practical things more.
Weapons, medicines, etc. are all very important resources to them. They are the basis for making their tribe stronger, and food determines how many people they can feed.
With Zhang Peng's support, it means that the Taomas tribe can grow rapidly without having to think too much.
This is the case with nomadic tribes. The only thing that can limit them is materials. With enough materials, they can develop easily.
While Keane was grateful for what Zhang Peng had done, he also had doubts.
He didn't understand why Zhang Peng was so kind to them. Could it be because of the Lord of the Undead?
When Keen asked this question, Zhang Peng told him that he should be the spokesperson, but the current size of the Taomas tribe was not worthy of being a spokesperson, and it needed to be stronger. This was Zhang Peng's request.
After knowing Zhang Peng's plan, Keen was relieved and no longer had any worries. He began to expand crazily and continued to use the resources obtained from the grassland to exchange food, weapons, and medicines from Zhang Peng.
On Liu Xingxing's side, the map has been released. It is more detailed than any map on the grassland. It contains not only the terrain and beast herd branches, but also the branches of the Insects and other forces. The most important thing is that he found many clues.
Mineral veins and treasure locations are also marked on the map.
When Li Ziyu saw the map, he was not surprised, but frightened. This is not a map, it is obviously a treasure house!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He knew that the grassland had many resources that the aborigines had not discovered, but he did not expect that the resources were so huge.
In terms of mineral veins alone, Liu Xingxing found coal mines, carbon mines, iron mines, gold mines, silver mines... there are a lot of them, and there are even more treasures, and there are even suspected ancient ruins in them, as many as three.
According to Liu Xingxing, the three ancient ruins were buried underground. They were very large and seemed to be cities. However, these were all speculations. He did not dig them. After all, it was only a month and the time was limited. He was
Just found the place.
Sure enough, when Liu Xingxing and Zhang Peng are around, the development speed is the fastest.
When Li Ziyu was alone, he had no force and could only cooperate with Lin Youyou to hunt down the life empire travellers.
With Liu Xingxing and Zhang Peng, the resource problem has been solved a lot. There is no need to fight, and resources are gathered into his warehouse every day.
How wonderful this is.
With this month's time to lay the groundwork, Li Ziyu began to make calculations in his mind. He was going to start building a force in the grassland.
Oh, by the way, the Wasteland Alliance is still his force, but Batubu and his help are watching.
Li Ziyu thought for a while and threw the Wasteland Alliance aside.
This alliance is too loose and has more conflicts than the Life Empire Alliance. You can ask them to help with small things, but forget about big things and you have to rely on yourself.
Li Ziyu used the system to design a flag with a special-shaped skull on it.
This flag will be his representative.
After the design was completed, he asked Zhang Peng to send the flag to the Orc Empire and nomadic tribes to let them know that wherever they see the flag flying in the future, it means the presence of the undead.
Li Ziyu needs to be prepared ahead of time. Don't be happy mining here. Orcs are coming to kill you. Wouldn't that be nonsense?
The grassland is vast. Whether it is the orc empire or the nomadic tribe, management is very loose. Some mineral veins can be mined directly without anyone taking care of them. Some mineral veins are within the sphere of influence. If you want to mine, Zhang Peng needs to communicate with them and obtain their consent.
.
However, Li Ziyu feels that no one will disagree.
Among the aboriginal races on the grassland, who doesn’t know about him?
He believed no one was willing to risk offending him by blocking the mine.
Lin Youyou has not shown up during this period, so Li Ziyu can use this time to expand. Taking the map Liu Xingxing made, Li Ziyu started his own mining plan.
Choose the one closest to you first.
Arriving at the mineral vein location marked on the map, Li Ziyu immediately dropped a soul base station, then with the soul base station as the center of the circle, dropped a resource station and ore collection point, followed by the newly developed building [Corpse Graveyard].
[Corpse Cemetery]
[Level: castle level]
[Category: Special Buildings]
[Introduction: It can be said to be an upgraded version of the cemetery of the dead. The corpse graveyard can be placed outside the mobile city. The cemetery will automatically converge the surrounding bones and the free soul energy in the void. Every time a period of time passes, a batch of undead will be born on its own.
, the quality of the undead comes from the quality of the bones and the amount of soul energy. PS: This is a cemetery that can continuously produce undead, but the production speed is relatively slow and it takes time to accumulate. 】
With the corpse graveyard, the number of undead around the mine will gradually increase, forming a small military gathering point. In this way, Li Ziyu does not have to worry even if he leaves.
Prayer cemeteries and shrines for the dead are also indispensable, and these two must be put aside.
Li Ziyu does not intend to build a simple mine, he intends to form a gathering point for long-term development.
Expanding with the soul base station as the core, buildings such as the Temple of the Dead can be used as temporary rest points.
He planned to attract nomadic tribesmen to come and rest.
This is very feasible. Nomadic tribes will wander around and provide them with a shelter from wind and rain. Naturally, they will not refuse. Once they accept it, their impression of the undead will gradually change and form a positive understanding.
In addition to these functional buildings, Li Ziyu also designed some small houses composed of skeletons of the dead.
This kind of small house is square and the walls are a bit scary, made of pale bones.
Small houses made of skeletons and undead can also be used to live in. They are a little cramped, but they can provide shelter from the wind and rain. When enemies invade, these small houses can also be restored to undead, destroying the invading enemies in one fell swoop.
get more.
As for whether the nomadic tribes would accept this, that was not something Li Ziyu considered. He had already done it anyway.
After securing the first mine, Li Ziyu notified the Taomas tribe of the news and told them to spread the news.
As long as it does not disturb the undead mining, any tribe can rest here, but the use of force is prohibited around the soul base station!
If there is a tribe fighting around, it means that if you violate the rules of the undead tribe, you will be expelled or even killed.
This is equivalent to a safe zone on a grassland, a safe zone composed of the undead.
Keane was surprised and very happy when he got the news.
The Lord of the Undead is a good man. He always thinks about the grassland races and the nomadic tribes.
Just when Li Ziyu had raided three ant-man nests, built three mines, and was starting to build the fourth mine, Lin Youyou finally contacted him.
【Private chat】
Man Behind the Scenes: Li Ziyu, where are you?
Don’t want to take the driver’s license test: You finally contacted me, I thought you were no longer in the grassland.
The person behind the scenes: No, I just improved it. Sorry, it’s a bit long.
Don’t want to take the driver’s license test: It doesn’t matter, what do you want from me?
The Man Behind the Scenes: The man who continues to hunt the Empire of Life?
If you don’t want to take the driver’s license test: you can consider it.
The person behind the scenes: You don’t want the resources anymore?
I don’t want to take the driver’s license test: It’s not like only those who hunt Life Empire travelers can get resources. Let’s do this, I’ll give you the coordinates, and you can come here first.
The person behind the scenes: That’s okay.
When Lin Youyou arrived at the coordinate location, she was stunned. What was going on? What was Li Ziyu doing?
Arriving next to Li Ziyu's castle, the two castles came together to complete the union. Lin Youyou met Li Ziyu.
Li Ziyu greeted Lin Youyou with a smile, "Hey, long time no see."
Lin Youyou nodded indifferently and asked curiously, "What are you doing? Did you build those buildings?"
Of course she was referring to the undead buildings being put down outside.
Li Ziyu laughed, pointed to the building outside and said, "I have nothing to do, so I just want to get some resources."
The fourth mine outside is not simple, there is a cemetery below!
I don’t know how it was formed, but Liu Xingxing marked it out. There are a large number of bones underneath, and they are very dense.
Naturally, Li Ziyu couldn't let go of such a good place.
When Lin Youyou heard Li Ziyu's words, her face showed surprise, "Are you planning to open a mine yourself? Does your undead tribe still have such ability? The undead tribe should not be a race in this field, right?"
After asking three times in a row, Li Ziyu shrugged and said with an indifferent expression, "So what if I'm not a professional? It's just digging. I'll send someone."
Lin Youyou thought about it and suddenly felt that what Li Ziyu said made sense.
Of course, Li Ziyu is not short of manpower, and the number of undead under his command is ridiculous.
The massive amount of undead, no matter how low the work efficiency is, is enough to make up for the lack of professionalism.
Putting away her surprised expression, Lin Youyou asked puzzledly, "Since you can mine, why did you hunt the life empire travellers with me before?"
Li Ziyu shrugged again, "Because no mineral vein was found at that time. Even if I can mine, there is nothing I can do without the mineral vein. Is it possible that I can still dig three feet into the ground?"
Lin Youyou frowned, "I didn't find the mineral vein at that time, how can I find it now?"
Facing Lin Youyou's questions one after another, Li Ziyu became a little impatient. There were many things that he couldn't talk about. The two of them hadn't gotten to know each other that well yet. Zhang Peng and Liu Xingxing, he hadn't planned to expose them yet.
He said angrily, "I remember that you are not a problem baby. Let's just say, can you answer these questions casually?"
Lin Youyou was startled by what Li Ziyu said. She lowered her head and thought for a while, then she seemed to have figured something out before she said, "I'm the one talking too much."
Just understand.
Li Ziyu relaxed and smiled again, "I want to open the mine, but the Life Empire can't relax either. I don't want them to suddenly call me one day. What needs to be done still needs to be done."
