Murphy smiled and replied: "This place is right for our chamber of commerce."
"Then I don't know how Miss Murphy can help us?" Wildhammer hurriedly asked.
"We need to investigate this before we can reach a conclusion." Murphy didn't know what Cook planned or how dare to promise.
Cook smiled and said: "Two heads, I have something to talk to Miss Murphy first."
"Okay." Vincent replied.
Murphy gave a few instructions to the steward next to him, and then followed Cook with two guards, while the steward behind him became busy directly. In less than a moment, a barrel of wine and magic potions, Even the equipment was taken out.
After entering the house, Cook asked: "How is it, are there any gains?"

It’s too difficult to do business. Many cities’ equipment and magic potions are all in charge of the city lord. We have traveled to several cities. Either the price offered is too low, or we simply refuse.
Murphy complained Replied.
Cook said with a smile: "Don't worry, aren't we here? This is the best opportunity to enter Cold Spring City and Gem City. Let's extend a helping hand at this critical time. Then we will be in these two cities in the future. Slowly, our business will get better, take this as an opportunity to start trading, but now we have a big business."
"You mean transporting those people back?" Murphy asked.
"No, it's a kobold." Cook said aside why the kobold came to the ground.
As soon as Murphy heard it, he knew what to do right away. Cook didn’t lack food, not to mention a plane alliance, just in the territory of Jinguangyan, the flower elves planted a lot of food, not to mention kobolds. It is a miscellaneous animal, and there are many huge animals in the ocean.
"When this matter is done, we can monopolize the kobold trade. Imagine how much profit will tens of millions of kobolds bring?" Cook said with a smile.
Murphy stood up after listening to Cook's words: "I will plan first. We can't let this monopolistic trade go."
Seeing Murphy walking out, Cook looked at Jin Guangyan and said, "You named the Cotai Chamber of Commerce?"
"Speaking is nothing." Jin Guangyan replied grimly.
"Forget it, these kobolds are still useful, but if those guys don't open their eyes, let's go and show them something more. Come on, I have good wine here again." Cook took out a bottle of wine.
Jin Guangyan didn't even look at it, and straightened up his paws: "Two bottles."
"Of course two bottles." Cook replied.
Jin Guangzhen took a look and found that there were indeed two bottles of wine, and they were the best crystal bottles. There was a layer of frost on the outside of the crystal bottles, and there was a hint of coldness.
"What kind of wine is this?" Jin Guangyan asked in surprise.
Before Cook could answer, Jin Guangyan took a sip, and then Jin Guangyan yelled, "Sweet, cool."
The next day, Cook took Holo out. Holo, the hapless one, only had his turn today. Obviously, his tribal strength was not very high.
"Holo, do you have this kind of stone below?" Cook asked with a piece of copper ore.
"A lot, there are a lot of ores below us. You are copper ores. There are gems and magic crystals below us, but those things are just beautiful." Holo is free when he sees it today, and he seems to be in a much better mood. Talking a lot.
"Holo, how many people does your tribe have?" Cook asked again.
"It seems to be two hundred thousand." Hollow replied.
"Holow, for the sake of your good performance, I will give you a chance. I will use grain to exchange all kinds of ores and gems with you." Murphy listened to Cook's words and couldn't help but sigh Cook's words. People, originally a fair deal, are said to be like Holo owes favors.
Hollow didn't want to trade, but he was afraid that Cook would turn his face, so he nodded and said, "Well, I will let the patriarch below send the gems later."
Cook nodded, Holo yelled for a while on the wall, and the kobold who picked Holo was busy for a while, and all the gems were taken out. The gems were used as decoration in the kobold, which is just a good-looking. Not long after, dozens of gems of various colors were hung with ropes by the guards around Murphy.
"Murphy, calculate it." Cook said.
"A total of 13 thousand catties of grain." Murphy said, in fact, this is only one percent of the value of the gem itself, because there is a magic gem in this gem, 13 thousand catties of grain, and four copper coins per catty. It’s only 50,000 copper coins, just a few gold coins. The shipping cost is a big one, and the value of gems is millions of gold coins. Of course, Murphy is calculated according to gold coins, and Sanctuary is calculated according to Intel. In fact, the currency of Sanctuary It's very chaotic, and the currencies of different races are different.
"Move the grain down." Cook ordered.
Thirteen thousand catties of grain, 50 catties per bag, more than two hundred bags, like a hill.
"Well, Holo, let's have a good deal." Cook put Holo down, then turned around and left.
The kobolds below were jealous a long time ago, because a bag was deliberately broken when carrying the grain just now, and the golden corn was flowing out, and the scent of the grain made the kobolds not far away swallowed their saliva.
Hollow saw that Cook and the others were all up, and immediately ran away, but after a few steps, he turned his head to see that there were only a few people on the wall, and immediately screamed.
"Wow." Hearing Holo's roar, the tribe where Holo was rushed up, and more than two hundred bags of grain were immediately emptied.
And soon afterwards, the smell of food came from the kobold camp. Some of these kobolds were eaten raw. However, under the education of Hollow and Cook, he finally knew that the fried food was more delicious, but the smell of the food made the whole There was another riot in the camp. Think about so many kobolds here, the leaves are clean, now there is food, and you can do anything when you are extremely hungry.
The next day, a kobold shaman was exchanged. Cook discovered that the kobolds who came to pick up the shaman had prepared gems. Cook said nothing.
This time, I exchanged a full 50,000 catties of food, because yesterday Hollo's tribe didn't take out all the gems. This is a big deal. The other kobolds cowered and traded.
What makes Cook funny is that the kobold's trading method is extremely strange. The food was moved here, and the next wave of kobolds immediately surrounded the surrounding area, and then placed the gems under the city wall and quickly strayed. Waiting at a distance of meters, until Murphy ordered the people to carry the food, and then these kobolds rushed up and the transaction was completed.
The transaction continued, and the first person to trade the ore was Holo. On this day, Holo brought a group of hundreds of kobolds, and hundreds of bags of ore were dumped in each bag. On the ground, then Holoqiang resisted the panic and waited for Murphy and Cook to come down.
"Very well, Hollow, we also need ore." Cook patted Hollow on the shoulder.
Hundreds of bags of ore were exchanged for a hundred bags of food. In Holo's opinion, it was worthwhile. Mining ore is not like hunting and gathering food is so difficult.
This is a big deal. Every day, ore is delivered. Murphy originally wanted to calculate it separately, but that was too slow, so he unified the price based on copper ore. You must know that some of them are iron and copper ore.
Vincent and others opened their mouths. These people knew the price difference between these ore and grain. The two looked at each other and saw each other's helplessness.
Cook, Murphy, Vincent, and Wildhammer were sitting together. Vincent and Wildhammer looked at Murphy and were shocked, because just now, Murphy proposed to build a new city here, Murphy. Inviting Vincent and Wildhammer, of course, mainly saw the soldiers brought by these two men.
"We need to think about it." Although Vincent suppressed his excitement.
Building a city is something that Vincent didn't even think of, but now it's in front of him. Wildhammer said with some worry: "We are a little too close to the dwarf territory and the dwarf territory."
This sentence of Wildhammer has already betrayed the mind of Wildhammer, away from the territory of the dwarf, please, you Wildhammer itself is a dwarf, OK? Obviously Wildhammer is already considering the future city.
Cook looked at the map that Vincent had taken out and said, "Should we put a little distance?"
"Will the Kobold's patron saint beast Flame Crocodile threaten us?" Vincent couldn't help but said.
"Hey, those guys aren't coming, I'm going to trouble those guys." Cook said with a smile.
Murphy glanced at Jin Guangyan and muttered to herself: "Even the dragon is afraid of this little thing, let alone Yalong."
Cook looked at Vincent and Wildhammer, and then said: "Anyway, our trade is also from the air, so we can choose some areas with steep terrain as long as there is water, and don't care about the ground."
"But the territories in the forest are all owned." Vincent said worriedly.
Murphy glanced at the two of them and said: "I forgot to say, this time I brought all battle frigates."
"Combat frigate?" Vincent and Wildhammer glanced at each other.
Seeing that both of them were still worried, Cook said: "Two, if you don't want to, then forget it. After all, building a city is not a matter of overnight, and the investment is still huge."
The reason why Cook said this was mainly because Vincent and Wildhammer hesitated. Cook was helping them make up their minds.
"Okay, we're fighting." Vincent and Wildhammer knew that Cook was forcing them to make a statement, and they looked at each other and then agreed.
Cook stood up and said, "Well, you two first go and see how many people are willing to follow, and then we first go to survey the terrain."
After Vincent and Wildhammer went out, Murphy asked Cook: "Why do you want to pull them, do we have that strength?"
"Hehe, this is our chance to integrate into the sanctuary. Besides, we are the base camp inside the hollow mountain. This is just a nail outside." Cook said with a smile.
Murphy nodded without understanding, and then said: "Anyway, I'm only in charge of business affairs."
"Relax, the two of them won't have time to intervene in city management in the future." Cook made a relieved look to Murphy.
On the second day, Murphy was still in charge of the transaction. Cook, Vincent and Wildhammer went to check several places in advance, but they were not determined. As for the entrance to the underground world where the kobolds are located, it is more than ten kilometers wide. The huge sinkhole is like a sinkhole.
Finally, the three people unanimously decided to build a city in a mountain range more than 30 kilometers away from the Tiankeng. The mountain is covered with snow and ice peaks, a relatively gentle basin in the middle, and a lake in the middle. The surrounding mountains are natural. The barrier, there is a gap on the other side of the basin, and there is a relatively steep down here, and then down is a river, and on the opposite side is a forest.
"Let’s build a bridge on the river. This is the first defense. Then build a winding road along the hillside, go directly to this location, the gap in the basin, and then build a wall with a minimum height of 50 meters. It’s best to use it all. Pouring molten iron, this is the first step that needs to be completed. After the city inside is established, air defense fortresses must be built on the surrounding mountains. On the side where there is no easy point, a huge smelting factory will be built to build the entire city. Provide metal products." Cook said, pointing to the blueprint of the city that he had drawn for two days.
"Goo!"
"Cuckoo!"
Both Vincent and Wildhammer swallowed their saliva. The small basin is hundreds of square kilometers. As for the gap in the basin, it is also two kilometers wide and there is a 3,000-meter-high Panshan road that spans more than two hundred. The bridge of meters long, and the dozens of air defense fortresses on the surrounding mountains, the two of them gobbled up how much money it cost.
Vincent glanced at Wildhammer and Cook said: "I don't understand anything, I just take care of the security work."
"All right, but I need to have at least 50,000 regular troops within a year." Cook nodded and said.
"What about me?" Wildhammer was a little dissatisfied with Vincent's statement and asked angrily.
"Wildhammer, I think you will be responsible for this smelter. In addition, there is a bridge spanning more than two hundred meters. I plan to use fine iron to build it directly across the past. There is also the Panshan road and the construction of the city wall. There is also a giant sluice on the lake side to store water, build a 500-ton water forge, and the surrounding fortresses, as well as the road leading from the city to this fortress. You are all responsible." Cook said a lot.
Wildhammer saw the blueprint of the bridge designed by Cook that spanned more than two hundred meters and was constructed of fine iron. The saliva was about to flow down. When he heard that there was a 500-ton water forging machine, he even wanted to kiss Cook. Two mouthfuls, and then I was dumbfounded when I heard that I was in charge of such a big mess.
"As for the money, I will find a way." Cook saw Man Cui's dumbfounded look, and finally said his own business.
"Okay, but I need at least 100,000, no, 150,000." Wildhammer exclaimed excitedly.
"No, just 30,000 people are enough. Don't forget, we have kobolds, and there are so many kobolds, so we can use them very hard." Cook replied with a smile.
The next step is the relocation, which is actually nothing, but there are more than 20,000 people, only more than 10,000 are willing to follow Wildhammer and Vincent, and the rest are going to build an outpost in place. It is conceivable that this place It will definitely be valued by some people, and then build a city, with water, a place, and sound defense measures.
The magic spaceship fleet went back and forth more than a dozen times, not only transporting a large number of people, but also a large amount of construction materials. When the kobold heard that Cook had changed places, they all rushed to the new place one after another, but the kobold’s little It takes at least a month to short legs. During this month, Murphy waved large orders to and from various cities.
All kinds of tools and instruments were transported back, and there were hoarded grains. The smelting factory began to be established. Seeing the one-ton crucible, the wildhammer was very excited. The ore was crushed and then smelted, countless dwarves. , The dwarf was constantly busy, and Vincent came to Cook dignitaries every day.
Cook had to recruit people in various cities, anyway, he was very busy.
With the arrival of the first group of kobolds, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The kobolds were scared at first, but some were extremely hungry. After working for a day, the food they got was not enough to eat, and they could save a portion. , There were only a few on the first day, but thousands on the second day and tens of thousands on the third day. In the end, kobolds were hired by more than 150,000.
The kobold took the tool, and after a burst of rumbling engineering bombs, he began to clean up the stones. Cook implemented a contract system, and the winding road continued to extend. The piers on both sides of the bridge were slowly raising, and countless dog heads The ore collected by people is purchased and then entered into the smelter.
"One point to the left, one point to the left, passed, passed, ok, that's it." Cook looked at the bridge skeleton made of dozens of tons of refined iron hanging from the magic spacecraft, as the smelter continued to smelt~www. EbookFREE.me~The bridge components are made piece by piece, and then placed.
The dwarf, the dwarf is busy, yelling, the bridge deck Cook is ready to use iron wood, the kobolds have collected a lot of iron wood, the most funny thing about Cook is that the river is opposite from the underground world entrance to the sinkhole Thirty kilometers of the river was divided up by large and small kobold tribes, and large and small camps were established. The kobolds piled up the collected ores, magic plants, and other things in the camp, and a certain amount came to Qiaotou. Side trading, Qiaotou has a simple trading point.
"Gululu, Gululu." A trolley full of ore slowly entered the trading point under the pull of a gopher. This is the latest release from the smelter. First, there are kobolds who are unwilling to trade, but wait for some kobolds. People find that a dozen or so are not as many as others deliver, and the sales of this kind of ore trucks immediately become hot.
"Cook, what's the matter, hurry up and say, I'm still busy." Wildhammer urged, Vincent also looked impatient, obviously both of them had a lot of things.
"I think we need to issue currency." Cook said. When Vincent and Wildhammer heard Cook's words, their faces became serious at the same time.
