Arithmetic is Batchelor's weakness. When Reggie recited a series of numbers, he quickly returned to a semi-demented state.
"When the Sand Clan Spring erupted just now, how many water drops did you feel fell into the sand?"
"Thousands and thousands, countless."
"This is too perfunctory. I made a rough estimate and found that there were more than thirty water drops falling at my feet. Then I estimated the area in the center of the palace, and the total should be between three thousand and five thousand. The Sand Clan Spring erupts every day
Twelve times, even if calculated as three thousand, at least 36,000 sand demons will be born every day. Guess how many sand demons will be born every year?"
Batchelor smiled and said: "Sir, I think you are overly worried. These sand demons will never be able to unite together. According to historical records..."
"I have also read the history books, but I have a bad premonition that if we destroy the Sand Clan's Spring, the Sand Demons will unite together, and the Shattered Snow Country will become their eternal enemy.
Compared with the huge total number, the sand demons under Delian are insignificant, and the sand demons fighting for Mandasa are also insignificant. We cannot completely eliminate the sand demons. Without this strength now, we will not be able to do so for a long time in the future.
Without this strength, recruiting the Lord of the Sand Demon is the wisest choice at the moment."
"Destroy the Sand Clan's spring so that they can no longer reproduce. Sooner or later, they will become extinct."
"Before this, we will probably be the ones who become extinct." Reggie wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling lucky for his choice.
Delian, the Lord of the Sand Demon, and his daughter Yalishan settled in Broken Snow City as hostages. From then on, the Benlang Kingdom was completely free from the intrusion of the Sand Demon.
In the next few months, the Demon Slayer Alliance was invincible. The evil demons of Tianxing Kingdom were completely annihilated. The fire demons of White Tower Kingdom were driven back to the other side of the Hanlang River. Other evil demons were also wiped out.
.
Some countries have also completely disappeared, and no trace of them is left after they were slaughtered by evil spirits.
The big countries in the alliance divided their lands, and the small countries that survived by chance began to rebuild with the help of the big countries after defeating the evil spirits.
The demon war seems to be over. Although no trace of Mandasa was found in the end, the demons have lost the ability to invade on a large scale, and local small-scale wars are not worth mentioning at all.
The continent of Origino began to slowly recover, and the most obvious sign was the annual gathering of the Shattered Snow Country.
Hurley developed a new type of poison and completely annihilated all the mud demons on Camel Island. Reggie spent a lot of money and manpower to continuously speed up the reconstruction of Camel Island City, gradually moving the residents back to their homeland, and Nianji
The location was chosen on Camel Island.
After the opening of the annual fair, Reggie organized a month-long competitive performance in Tuodao. The arena that accommodated tens of thousands of people was packed with seats every day. It took two and a half years for Tuodao City to finally regain its former vitality.
"Damn it, I lost the bet again!" Alfred threw the ticket to the ground and looked at Mathias beside him with a look of resentment.
"There are many skills in betting. Don't put all your gold coins on the sword fighters of the Star Kingdom." Mathias took a sip of wine and looked at Alfred proudly, "If you just want to witness the glory of the Star Kingdom, I
Of course there is nothing to say, but if you really want to make money, you’d better be more sensible.”
It was rare for the monarchs of the two great powers to get together in the arena, and this became the only opportunity for the Demon Slayer Alliance to gather together. Before the Sky Star Emperor took over as leader, the alliance had lost the meaning of its existence.
Human beings are forgetful animals. The war has just ended, but most people have forgotten the pain and slowly returned to their familiar routine.
The White Tower Kingdom restarted the glass trade, and this annual fair alone earned Reggie tens of thousands of gold coins. The Golden Eagle people began to purchase cloud cotton, and the Fengyan Kingdom invested heavily in ceramics. Even a small country like Shinekru
, also developed a strong interest in lighters.
"I don't mean to offend you two, but I think what your country needs most right now is still food."
The two princes of Shineklu, Sayita and Sadiga, have inherited the throne and become the twin kings of Shineklu. Reggie always feels that these brothers have some IQ problems. With the financial resources of their country,
Spending more than 20,000 gold coins to buy a lighter is really too reckless.
"Emperor Suixue, in terms of war, we admit that you have some strength, but in terms of business matters, you'd better ask your commercial officer for advice." Sadiga looked at Reggie with slight contempt, "These things are very important to you."
It's very useful to us, but you don't know the knowledge involved."
"What knowledge can there be?"
Sayita frowned: "Why should we tell you?"
Reggie smiled and said: "If you are willing to tell me, I can give you a 20% discount, which means I will charge you 20% less."
"How much is 20%?" Sa Yita curled her lips.
"Two percent is really a lot." Sadiga whispered.
"Well, since you sincerely ask for advice, I will tell you with great mercy," Sayita looked around mysteriously and whispered, "Do you know how many countries there are on this continent?
"
Reggie was startled and replied: "Totaling all the big and small, there should be sixty-one. Fourteen countries were destroyed in this war, and now there should be forty-seven."
"You are wrong, Muhahaha," Sayita said with a smile that didn't deserve a beating. "As far as we know, there are at least 127 countries! Not counting those that were destroyed."
Reggie understood what they meant. They included all the tribes, including the savage tribes around the Golden Spike Kingdom, and their numbers were not accurate. As far as Reggie knew, the number of these tribes had exceeded two
Hundreds.
Now is not the time to dwell on these issues, Reggie is interested in how they make money.
"Do you know how many countries have ships?" Sadiga still maintained a nervous and mysterious expression, "There are twenty-two countries around Shinekru Country, only four countries have ships, and only two countries have ships.
The boat can reach here."
Reggie was startled: "What does having a boat have to do with business?"
The two brothers laughed loudly and said: "How can I buy your lighter without a boat? You know how expensive this thing is on the black market!"
Sayita said: "Many countries want your lighters, but they can't buy them. Even if those two countries can buy them, they can't afford them. They won't come to Camel Island just for hundreds of lighters!
"
Sadiga said: "They can only buy lighters from us, and the price will be doubled, and what we want is not gold coins, but food. These lighters can buy us food!"
Diad once said that among the princes in the southeast of the continent, the two brothers Sayita and Sadiga are typical wise and foolish people. Maybe their IQs are really not high, but they have been doing valuable things.
Everyone has a different definition of value. For the brothers, being able to feed their people is value. For Modessa, being able to win the sword fighting championship is value.
For Reggie, the current value is his annual collection and train. The annual collection has been a success, but the train is still miserable.
