The battleship slowly docked. The terrain here has been eroded by ice and snow for countless years, and has naturally formed an excellent port. The huge Arctic Ocean battleship can also dock.
On the shore, countless people were dumbfounded as they watched the steel battleship slowly approach the shore, looking at the ice floes smashed violently along the way, and feeling the majesty and domineering power of the steel battleship. Many people even held their breath.
"The boat is made of iron!" I don't know how many people exclaimed.
I have seen many wooden ships, but this was the first time I saw an iron ship! It was the first time I saw an iron ship, and it was such a huge iron ship, and it was also a fleet. You can imagine the impact on everyone.
There are no sails or oars, but there is smoke coming out of the chimney on this ship...it's a bit strange.
Not all the warships stopped. Only the Arctic Ocean battleship docked at the shore and did not anchor. Accompanied by Liu Dingshan, Zhang Hao flew to the shore. However, the guns of the warship behind him were ready and could clear the ground with shells at any time.
However, before Zhang Hao could speak, someone rushed over from all around:
"Excuse me, is this your ship made of black iron?"
"How can there be so much black iron? Is it black iron?"
"Are you from the Fertile Continent? Why have you never heard of it?"
"Can I go up and have a look?"
"How much does this boat cost? Buy one for fun..."
"Hey, your boat looks good, give me one. Otherwise it will look better than yours!"
…
Zhang Hao looked around indifferently, his eyes calm and a little cold, "Aren't there any representatives? Come out and have a few people who can make the decision! There are many people waiting, so please step back!"
"Oh, the one who made the decision turned out to be a kid at the Golden Core stage. Haha... Is there no one here?"
"Boy, who do you think is the idler?"
"I really don't know how high the sky is. Do you know where this is? This is Liuli Island. Too many pretty boys like you die. A lot of them die every day. They have no place to bury them and they have to be thrown into the sea to feed the fish."
…
Zhang Hao sighed and shouted to Dugu Junjie on the bow of the ship behind him: "Let them clean up."
"Okay!" Dugu Junjie sneered and commanded a Zhenyuan-class battleship next to him to attack.
The bow of this battleship is a twin 460mm naval gun. The gun is aimed at a small hill on the shore. The small hill is about thirty meters high and hundreds of meters in diameter. It is covered with ice and snow.
Only a few trees can be seen exposed.
This hill is close to everyone and there is no one on it.
The battleship quickly took aim, and then... opened fire!
The exit speed of Dayang Group's current naval guns has reached three to four times the speed of sound; everyone saw a sudden flash of flames in front of the battleship, and then saw a sudden flash of fire from behind, about one hundred and fifty feet away, and the entire hill was covered with ice and snow.
It exploded with a bang, and countless ice and snow flew into the air.
A circle of shock waves spread wildly, and the ice and snow wherever it passed was lifted and shattered. Many people lost their footing and were blown away by the shock wave.
A loud noise like thunder echoed in the ears of countless people; the earth seemed to be shaking.
On the sea, the battleship that had just been launched was almost motionless, with only a faint smoke curling from the cannon muzzle. Behind the battleship, there were water droplets that shook the air and slowly landed.
Zhang Hao clapped his palms gently, "It's finally quiet. Is there anything you can do? Come out with a few representatives."
It was only then that a few people with extraordinary bearing finally came slowly over.
The first person laughed from a distance: "Welcome new friends to Liuli Island."
Youdao would not hit the smiling person with his hand, so Zhang Hao cupped his hand and said, "I'm Zhang Hao, I don't know how to address you?"
"Jinghong Gang, Liu Yu!"
The expression on Zhang Hao's face suddenly became more enthusiastic: "I heard that Senior Liu is from West Kunlun?"
"Yes, it was the old guy Yu Yangzi who said that. This old guy is quite fast."
Zhang Hao smiled and did not answer the question, but asked: "I wonder if senior knows Dong Guo Mingyun?"
"Of course we know each other. We often sit and talk."
"Senior Dong Guo is still a guest at Dayang Group.
About a month ago, he participated in one of our joint operations. He went to the depths of the open sea and fought with five mirage dragons, seven sharks, and endless ocean monsters, and killed all the mirage dragons, shark dragons, and
A large number of ocean monsters.
By the way, we dispatched 14 steel battleships in that battle. After the war, the corpses of monster beasts harvested piled up like mountains. There was no place to store a large number of golden elixir-level and a few Nascent Soul-level ocean monsters, so we could only dig up demon elixirs and important
s material.
In that battle, we gained at least one billion high-grade spiritual stones!"
Zhang Hao quietly promoted his family's strength and also established relationships with them.
Liu Yu's eyes flashed with horror as he fought 12 'dragons' on the open sea. This ability is definitely terrifying to hear!
In the past, ordinary practitioners (incarnations of gods) encountered marine monsters on the open sea, especially those that came in groups. It was difficult to escape on the sea, and many times they could not escape. Countless marine monsters rushed out.
, invincible to kill!
For humans, there are good things in monsters; but for monsters, there are even more good things in people!
So, the reason why this strange "Ocean Group" was able to win was because of these steel battleships, right? Although the steel battleships had only attacked once, their power should not be underestimated.
The smile on Liu Yu's face became a little softer, "Zhang Xiaoyou, I wonder why you are here this time?"
"Two purposes!" Zhang Hao spoke crisply, "First, trade! Second, explore the ruins. In contrast, trade is our first priority.
Dayang Group is a commercial group, and commercial exchanges are the foundation for our survival. I think there is a huge market on Liuli Island, and this is the purpose of our coming here."
The nervousness on Liu Yu's face disappeared, and he gradually became more natural, "Then I wonder what kind of products Dayang Group can provide?"
"A lot! Whatever you want, we can provide it. If we don't have it this time, we will definitely bring it next time.
Thinking that Liuli Island is a place of bitter cold, this time we brought a large amount of spiritual rice, vegetables, and fruits. In addition, we also brought a large amount of Nascent Soul Stage, Golden Elixir Stage, some general elixirs, and a few
A good elixir.
Also, we brought a large amount of spiritual materials, including black iron with a purity of more than 98%, high-purity red copper, fine gold, etc.
Of course, there are also spiritual stones that are indispensable for practitioners. However, most of what we brought are high-grade spiritual stones, medium-grade spiritual stones, and not many low-grade spiritual stones."
In fact, there are a lot of low-grade spiritual stones on the battleship, and the defense of the battleship mainly uses low-grade spiritual stones. But when doing business, of course you have to pursue high profits.
On Liuli Island, the ones Zhang Hao has seen so far have the lowest cultivation level in the late Golden Core stage, and most of them are in the Nascent Soul stage. For people with this level of cultivation, whatever they take out from their bodies is priceless.
Considering the environment of Liuli Island and the interior of the ruins, Zhang Hao believed that what they had most should include medicinal materials, precious ores, and some treasures in the ruins.
In fact, many explorers (let’s call them that) should have a lot of good things. But because there is no market and they cannot meet their psychological expectations, most people will choose to store them. And these are the goals of the Ocean Group.
Since the reputation of Liuli Island is so great, and it is a world of monsters, plus the cultivators who have died here over the years, etc., the treasures here are definitely an astronomical number.
Several people on the shore heard that Zhang Hao and others were coming to do business, and seemed to have a wait-and-see attitude towards exploring the ruins. They were not in a hurry to win over them for the time being.
Zhang Hao also got to know the rest of the people. The deputy gang leaders of the five gangs came before and after, but only the deputy gang leaders came. It is said that the gang leaders are guarding the entrance to the ruins, or they may not bother to show up:
The peak of divine transformation is almost at the pinnacle of the current world.
In contrast, the few who have transcended the stage of becoming gods seem to be in seclusion, as if they want to stay there forever.
In addition to Yu Yangzi from the Snow Fox Gang, Liu Yu from the Jinghong Gang, Zhao Guang from the Longquan Gang, Diao Yifeng from the Changqing Gang, Leng Qianxun from the Feijiao Gang, and Zhang Hao also knew each other one by one.
Then, Zhang Hao presented a meeting gift. Newcomers always have to pay their respects when they first arrive; Dayang Group is here to do business, so this is particularly important.
Sometimes it doesn't matter whether the gift is valuable or not, what matters is...whether you gave it or not.
Of course, the gifts Zhang Hao brought out were not bad, each person had 10 tons of spiritual rice, fruits and vegetables, plus 100 kilograms of high-purity black iron.
Spiritual rice, fruits and vegetables, etc. are in short supply on Liuli Island, and the five big gangs have a huge demand for these things.
There is also high-purity black iron. This time, the fleet brought only black iron with a purity of over 98%. Even though the price of black iron has dropped a lot now, the price of black iron with a purity of over 98% has still not dropped much.
Because the technology that has been disclosed can only reach 98% at most. Therefore, the price of black iron with a purity of more than 98% is still high. Dayang Group cannot give up its own interests.
Currently, the starting price of 98% black iron sold by Dayang Group is 10 medium-grade spiritual stones (the price used to be 70 medium-grade spiritual stones). Between 98% and 99% purity, for every increase in purity, the selling price increases by 5%.
A medium-grade spiritual stone.
Dark iron with a purity of 99% can be used to refine spiritual treasures. The price starts at 10 high-grade spiritual stones. For every additional point of purity, the price increases by five high-grade spiritual stones.
At present, Dayang Group is still the only one that produces such high-purity black iron on a large scale. Relying on the technology leaked by Dayang Group, other places may be able to continue refining and use traditional methods to purify high-purity black iron, but the price...
It's really better to buy from Dayang Group.
In short, after getting a meeting gift from Zhang Hao, everyone started to get acquainted with each other. Zhang Hao said that he would build a port here. This port belongs to Dayang Group, but everyone can use it for free. The construction costs, maintenance costs, etc. are all borne by Dayang Group.
supply.
In addition, when the five major gangs come to purchase, as long as it is a collective purchase and the purchase volume is large enough, the price will be 10% off!
Naturally, everyone is happy. The experts here don't care about waiting for a port. Anyway, this place is originally a rocky beach. Now that Zhang Hao is so aggressive, everyone immediately said: This port belongs to Dayang Group, and the five of us jointly guarantee it.
So on the surface, everything was solved. But Zhang Hao also knew very well that everyone just talked about it verbally, so don't take it seriously. If something really happens, Dayang Group will have to solve it on its own.
That is to say, Dayang Group has not indicated which party it will join; once Dayang Group begins to explore the ruins and officially joins a certain party, troubles will inevitably follow.
However, Zhang Hao will also use this window period to establish a foothold on Liuli Island and explore relevant information to lay the foundation for the future development of Dayang Group.
Zhang Hao stood on the shore, directing the movements of the fleet. Since it was determined to establish a port here, of course it was necessary to establish a base. Dayang Group decided to build a large Dutian Liehuo Formation!
Dayang Group's recent coastal ports all need to use the Dutian Fierce Array. There is no way. Now Dayang Group's ports are all in the open sea. Without the Dutian Fierce Array to deter marine monsters, the safety of the ports cannot be guaranteed.
However, the scene of the Dutian Fierce Formation is very magnificent.
Zhang Hao himself was shocked.
I still remember the first time I set up the Dutian Fierce Formation, but it was during the Jindan period, with 12 formation bases and a radius of one kilometer.
But at this time, it was the Nascent Soul stage who took action, with 36 formation bases, and the formation was several times more complex; covering a radius of ten kilometers.
36 eight-meter-long steel pillars were burning with blue-purple flames that reached the sky, and the rolling heat waves directly melted the surrounding ice and snow. Standing on the shore, everyone could feel the power of the formation. Countless people's faces changed color.
.
This is clearly a Lingbao-level super formation, and it is close to the peak of Lingbao!
Zhang Hao saw the expressions of everyone around him and was very satisfied. This was the effect he wanted!
