Chapter 500: Then flicker

Zhao Yiming's words surprised these people. They have been relying on rock and fire mines for thousands of years. Why does it sound like poison at this time?
Zhao Yiming looked at their puzzled eyes with joy in his heart. Only by confusing the heads of these guys can he have a chance.
He smiled and said: "If I'm not mistaken, it should be especially easy when your lord goes to the Yanyan Fire Mine. Even when the patriarch was young, it should be easier than it is now."
Lin Tianhua nodded thoughtfully and said: "The son is right. When I was young, the rock and fire mine was indeed much more than now, and it was easier to mine."
Zhao Yiming said with a smile, "Because of such things as rock, fire and ore, it cannot regenerate by itself. There are only so many here. Although the reserves here are very large, you have been digging.
This is a big mountain. It has been dug like this by you for thousands of years, and it is about to be dug out. Maybe your generation is nothing but your son's generation, grandson's generation, and sooner or later it will be dug out. What do they rely on to eat? "
After listening to the several people, their complexions changed, and they thought about it carefully. The more they thought about it, the more terrifying it became. This is simply a genocide.
Lin Tianhua quickly stood up, bowed to Zhao Yiming and said: "The son is really a word that awakens the dreamer. The old man represents the whole family and thanked the son."
Yu Guanggang scratched his head and said, "But if we don't mine rock and fire, we won't have a source of livelihood, so eating now is a problem."
Zheng Anping smiled and said: "This matter does not bother the two masters. The son just said that Liuhuo Desert is a cornucopia. Please give me some suggestions."
Zhao Yiming laughed and said, "Then I will say a little bit of my own opinion. The Liuhuo Desert is a cornucopia, but the key to opening this cornucopia is Mingcheng.
The whole Huijiang is actually quite rich in material. The various fire monsters in the Flowing Fire Desert are a lot of wealth, and as long as you don't kill the monsters, they will be inexhaustible.
But why they were not worth money before, because there is a lack of a big trading place, but the emergence of our Mingcheng just made up for this shortcoming.
You might as well think about where it is safer to trade than there. When the time comes, those businessmen will not be in a rush. You will be treated fairly if you trade these things. "
Yu Guanggang's eyes lit up suddenly, and he laughed and said, "The son is really right, then we can catch the monster beast for money in the future. This is really a good job."
Zhao Yiming shook his head and said, "If you just think so, then you can only have food and clothing. If you want to eat fragrant and spicy food every day, catching monsters is a bad idea."
Lin Tianhua immediately said respectfully: "Please also ask the son to show us a clear path. In the future, our whole family will be willing to become the best partner with Mingjiao."
Zhao Yiming stood up with a smile, pointed his finger to the distance and said, "Who can tell me where the end of that direction is?"
Yu Guanggang looked up and said, "Isn't that your Mingcheng!"
Zhao Yiming's face flushed and said, "I'm sorry to point in the wrong direction. Where is the end of that direction?"
Zheng Anping said thoughtfully: "If you pass through the desert, there is the Rising Sun Empire."
Zhao Yiming slapped his thigh and said: "This is not the end. The development of Mingcheng will definitely attract businessmen from all over the world. Now there is only one way to get to Mingcheng, and that is to walk through Changling.
This road is very far away, which is very unfavorable for businessmen, but if we cooperate, we will build a business road from Mingcheng towards the Rising Sun Empire.
This distance will be shortened by at least one third, which is a huge profit margin for businessmen, and you only need to be responsible for providing them with safety guarantees, and they will pay you.
As long as you are not dizzy and ruined your reputation, then this is a very profitable undertaking for generations to come. All you have to do every day is to sit here and wait for others to give you money. "
Lin Tianhua nodded thoughtfully and said: "I understand what Zhao Gongzi meant, that is, let us charge them protection fees."
Zhao Yiming smiled and said: "The specific meaning is the same, but you can't be too greedy, as long as you charge a portion of the fee according to the size of the caravan.
And after receiving money from others, you must do your responsibilities. If someone gives you the money, and someone else snatches it along the way, who will be looking for you. "
Yu Guanggang said puzzledly: "But what if they don't let us protect?"
Zhao Yiming smiled and said: "This matter is not easy. When that happens, I will let Wanbao Pavilion's caravan take the initiative to accept your protection and go back and forth several times. Other businessmen will know that this trade route has huge profits.
Then they will take the risk, but I believe they will not accept your protection at first. At this time, you will release the race in your hands, the worst race.
Let them grab the things of these merchants, but you must remember that you can only grab goods and not kill people. After all, this future is your food and clothing parents.
Then I will arrange someone to hire you to get the goods back. When the time comes, you will send the goods back intact, and the remaining merchants will definitely flock to it.
So they will definitely seek your protection the next time they take this trade route. But there are definitely some people who have fluke ideas.
You can't be merciful at this time. Not only do you want to steal the goods, you must also use the most cruel method to kill them, and then place them in a very obvious place to let other merchants know the dangers of this trade route.
Gradually, these businessmen will form a habit. They will think that paying a small sum of money can make a huge profit for themselves, and you will naturally accumulate less and more. You can eat whatever you want every day. "
Lin Tianhua gave a thumbs up and said: "The old man has never served anyone in his life. What I admire for the son today is the five-body cast of the ground. This method is really high."
Zhao Yiming smiled and said: "But if you want this thing to be done, you must do two things. The first is to eradicate all the forces on both sides of the trade road that do not belong to you, especially those thugs. stay."
Yu Guanggang slapped his head and said, "You don't need to tell me this matter. Those guys just grabbed food from us. I'm not going to see the ancestors because of their 18 tricks or Baidu."
A smile appeared on Zhao Yiming's face, and what he wanted to say was the most important thing.
