Chapter 1199: The Pie Falls From the Sky!
"I understand what the Lord City Master said. I also understand the problems of the Cangwu City! However, the next person is alone and alone. How can I face the livelihood of the people in this vast city? This matter can only be reported to the imperial court. Does Your Majesty have any countermeasures? However, please forgive me for talking too much. Shenlong Dynasty is indeed very rich, but there are too many cities like Cangwu City. Even if there is assistance, it is estimated that there are not too many. Lord City Be mentally prepared!"
Chu Rui is very helpless. What he dislikes the most is owed favors. If he can solve the problem of the city lord Zhu Dazhuang, he is naturally obliged. However, the Boundless City must have at least a million people, and he alone is responsible for the food problems of so many people throughout the year. Damn, even if he opens a bank, he can't save it.
"Naturally, I know this. I also understand the difficulties of the imperial court. Although the men of our Cangwu City are poor, we don't want to rely on relief for the rest of our lives. We are self-reliant, self-reliant, and rely on our own hands to work and eat. It will never change...It's just that we are in too much trouble here. Even though there are some surplus food in the surrounding cities, it is not a lot, not to mention that this is not a long-term solution. Those business travelers who come and go have a lot of food, But these unscrupulous merchants sell too expensively, and most of the people in the clan can't afford it.... I want the help of the son-in-law, and I hope the son-in-law can solve this problem."
Zhu Dazhuang looked at Chu Rui very sincerely. As the city lord here, even though he was exhausted, he did not relax in the slightest. But the power of heaven is hard to violate. God gave the vast mountains rich resources, but took back the richness of the land. Even though they have a treasure mountain, food is a big problem. Even if there are good men who enter Baoshan, it is too dangerous to be helpless, and they can only hunt in the fringe areas. No matter how many there are, it will be impossible.
"City Lord Zhu, forgive me, is there no special product in Cangmang City? Cangmang Mountain is a treasure mountain, and the treasures inside are inexhaustible. Why is it like this?"
Chu Rui is very puzzled. As the saying goes, rely on mountains to eat mountains, rely on water to eat water. It will be easier to get rich by relying on mountains and rivers than in other places, right? Why is this damn Boundless City in such a miserable state?
"You don't know, Sly Hand Son-in-law. Indeed, the vast mountain is a huge treasure house. But it is too dangerous inside, and our clansmen can only hunt some wild beasts in the fringe areas. We need a lot of ordinary monsters. Only strong hunters can kill them. However, our tribe is too simple and honest to understand the cunning of human beings. The treasures in our hands have been bought by those profiteers at low prices. Even though I realized this later, I ordered the tribe not to Selling leather and magic cores at a low price. But those profiteers hold our life-saving food in their hands, we have no choice but to compromise. Buy their food at a high price, and sell what we have at a low price."
Hearing Zhu Dazhuang's words, Chu Rui was speechless for a moment. Nima, must you sell to these profiteers? Can't you go out and sell it yourself? Knowing that they bought it at a low price, they still want to sell it! food? Can't it be enough to go out and buy food by yourself?
"We also thought about going out of the city to buy food and sell leather and magic cores. But our team will encounter robbery every time on the way, not only losing the goods, but even killing people. Even if we organized Expert escorts, but this is really a waste of time and money. Every time the escort fee for the expert escorts is extraordinary. Every time it is calculated, it costs more than direct purchases. For a long time, the tribesmen also appointed them. "
Damn, those profiteers are so dark-hearted! For the sake of high profits, for the sake of monopoly, they even do such things as killing people and stealing goods. It is brutal!
"The people of the tribe have been appointed, but as the city lord, I can't let this situation last for a long time, and let those profiteers and locusts squeeze the blood and sweat of my people....Not long ago, the Lord of the White Tiger City sent me a letter, revealing that you, the son-in-law of Sly Hand, The news that I will come here. Although I am not very intelligent, I am not suitable to be the lord of a city, but I also understand that this is an opportunity.... The story of your son-in-law has been spread throughout the entire Destiny, you are a warrior , is also a wise man. I believe that if I ask you, you will be able to help us get out of this predicament!"
Seeing the sincerity and pleading on Zhu Dazhuang's face, Chu Rui fell silent. This kind of thing is indeed very tricky. If he is asked to do it, it is estimated that there is no other way but to destroy the profiteer. But this is a temporary solution, not a root cause, even if he can kill the dealer without guilt. But such a huge profit will definitely attract other profiteers to come. After killing one batch, another batch will come again, it is simply inexhaustible. If you want to eradicate them, you have to cut off their source of income.
The Boundless City is close to the Boundless Mountain, not to mention other things, just the minerals, wood, leather, etc. are extremely rich, and the quality is super awesome. If these were sold to those cities around Shenlong City, they would definitely be able to fetch a very high price. And the most valuable thing is this magic core, whether it is an npc or a player, it is very much needed. This thing can be made into jewelry, it can be made into a magic tool, and most importantly, it can be made into a staff used by a magician, a summoner's summoning scepter, and a priest's scepter. The energy core of these things is the magic core.
Before this place lagged behind, it was because those powerful people controlled the passage, so that people here could not sell their things and had to sell them to profiteers. However, once the player enters the city, everything will change. The things here are not only good, but also backed by the vast mountains, there are absolutely countless people who want to go inside to level up and hunt for treasures.
What excites Chu Rui the most is that there are a lot of raw materials here, and they are very cheap. If Chu Rui becomes the first person to eat crabs, then the materials he wants to build the city will undoubtedly be very large, and it will be very cheap. The number of savings is definitely an astronomical figure.
This is not to let him Chu Rui solve the problem, it is simply a pie in the world!
The most difficult thing is the transportation!
It's easy to talk about other things, but this huge wood, stone, minerals, etc., can't use the teleportation array at all. But, Zhu Dazhuang can issue tasks as the city lord, and let those players receive the tasks and be responsible for escorting them!
