Starting From Zero

Chapter 14 Buying with the Left Hand and Selling with the Right Hand

Erlangshen stretched out five fingers very slowly.

"Five hundred crystal coins? Not bad, barely acceptable."

Erlang Shen shook his head: "Add one zero after that."

"Five...five thousand crystal coins? Boss, what I bought are soldiers, not magic cannons. Did you get the price wrong? The Divine Power Archangel of the Temple of Light only costs 1,000 crystal coins! Isn't this too much for you? Exaggerated?"

Erlang Shen shook his head: "The soldiers of heaven have never provided for mortal consumption before, and you should also know our rules. This time the Jade Emperor granted you a special permission, which is an extrajudicial favor. I also know that the price is not cheap. , but the price is set by Heaven and cannot be changed by me. How about you consider changing to other arms?"

After listening to Erlangshen's words, I thought about it in my mind. A super unit worth 5,000 crystal coins each, even if it is used as the leading unit in the platoon, must have at least a thousand people to be useful. One thousand soldiers cost five million crystal coins. This price is really unacceptable.

"Lord God. I actually like this unit very much. Can't you be extraneous and give me a cheaper price?"

Erlang Shen shook his head: "Tian Tiao's laws and regulations are never discussed."

Suddenly my mind changed. "Erlang Zhenjun, please recommend other arms to me. I'll keep the price aside for now. I'm just checking the situation today. The actual purchase will have to wait for two days."

"That's no problem." Erlang Shen immediately called a group of soldiers nearby. "This is the second type of soldier I recommend to you."

This second unit is basically similar in equipment to the first unit recommended by Erlangshen. The teams in Tianting are all regular troops. Although the armor has been slightly modified according to each branch of the army, there is not much difference in general appearance. Otherwise, when the mixed formation attacks, it will look very messy. The biggest difference between this second type of arms and the first type of arms is the weapons. These soldiers were holding four- to five-meter-long hook-and-scythe spears. There was a relief sculpture of a divine dragon on the golden spear body, which looked quite heavy. But looking at the bodies of these guys, you can tell that if they swing these things, they will not be slower than those saber wielders just now.

"What type of military is this?"

Erlang Shen immediately introduced: "In fact, most of the troops in Tianting are named according to their uses. This troop is generally called the formation-breaker team. It is specially used to break up the enemy's formation. Even though the weapons they are equipped with are relatively long, in fact they are It’s a true one-on-one unit, but they fight faster. You’ll know this if you have the opportunity to use this unit in the future.”

"That means they are specially used to attack the enemy formation and 'disorder' the formation, right?"

"This is roughly how it is used in team battles. However, it is not good to use it as a vanguard to enter the city for key assaults during urban battles. This unit is very powerful in single combat and group fights, and it is a special assault force."

"You mean this is an assault force?"

"Yes. It's an assault force, and it also has the characteristics of a sniper team."

"But their weapons are so long. What if they encounter a forest or a street fight in the city?"

Erlangshen nodded to the team over there and didn't see what those soldiers did. But the weapons in their hands suddenly began to shorten, and finally turned into a scythe with a length of only one meter. The soldiers performed a series of fighting movements neatly with the sickles, and then the handles of the sickles began to extend. The soldiers held the hook-scythe one foot below with their right hands, and held the end of the hook-scythe gun with their left hand and shook it slightly. The pole in the middle of the hook-and-scythe gun suddenly collapsed with a crash and hung on the ground. Upon closer inspection, it turned into a chain. This time the hook sickle gun is transformed into a sickle-shaped chain knife, and it is also retractable. Under Erlangshen's eyes, these heavenly soldiers immediately performed some beautiful knife-throwing skills, and then shortened the chain of the hooking sickle and flying knife, and pulled both sides hard. The chain in the middle quickly straightened. They took advantage of the moment when the chain straightened and pressed their hands toward the middle. The chains were quickly pushed together and merged into a gun barrel. Then the weapon in their hands lengthened again and became four or five. A meter-high super-long hook sickle gun.

Erlang Shen said: "How about it? Not to mention street fighting, just playing short in the room is no problem."

"The heavenly soldiers are indeed strong."

"That's natural." Erlang Shen smiled proudly.

"How much does this cost?"

"This one is cheaper than the one just now." I just wanted to be happy when I heard Erlangshen said it was cheaper. He then said: "Four thousand crystal coins each."

"This is also called cheap? Do you know what cheap troops are in other forces?" Erlang Shen shook his head, and I continued: "In other religious forces, those whose price does not exceed one hundred crystal coins are called cheap troops. The troop types are generally between 600 crystal coins and 1,200 crystal coins. You can get them here. One is 4,000 and one is 5,000. One is enough to buy a bunch of them."

Erlangshen said a little unconvinced: "It was you who said you wanted the best, so I recommended the higher-level arms to you. Besides, yours is an air cavalry, not an ordinary rubbish arm. If you want it cheap, we have it, that one over there." Level 4 hand-to-hand combat weapons cost 500 crystal coins each. Is it cheap enough?"

"Is that the cheapest soldier?"

Erlang Shen shook his head: "That's the cheapest of the troops that can ride horses. Didn't the Marine Corps just get rid of it? There is also a simple rune soldier among those Marine troops, which is the lowest and cheapest military unit in Heaven, 300 each Crystal coins.”

"Hazy. Do you know how much the cheapest soldiers cost elsewhere?"

"how much?"

"The sinner warriors in the Temple of Light are only sold for 15 crystal coins each, and the corpse soldiers in the Dark Temple are sold for 10 crystal coins each. The soldiers recruited from the city generally only cost 8 crystal coins each. Come on, the cheapest one is The prices of their intermediate arms and regular arms are the same as their elites, let alone the high-level arms. Hurry up and catch up with the magic cannon!"

Erlangshen immediately defended: "You have to consider the 'cost' ratio! You spend four thousand crystal coins to buy four hundred corpse soldiers. I can knock them all down in five minutes with a hook sickle spear soldier."

"By the way, have you ever fought with the Temple of Light before? I remember that at the beginning of the year, you killed a Legion of Light. Is this the case?"

"Yes, why do you ask?"

"I want to know how effective your soldiers are when fighting against angels? How effective is the hook-and-scythe spearman when fighting against angels?"

Erlang Shen thought for a while and said: "The hook-scythe spearmen did not participate in that battle. After all, it was a raiding force, and we did not dare to equip a large number of equipment ourselves. However, the swordsmen over there saw it. There was a captain of the swordsmen at that time. The man chopped down more than thirty divine angels and hundreds of day angels, and he was only slightly injured. Of course, this is the captain of the swordsman, and his strength is exaggerated, but the average swordsman chopped down more than a dozen divine angels It shouldn’t be a problem.”

If Erlangshen is not exaggerating, according to the combat power he said. Many of these high-level arms in Heaven definitely surpass those of other sects in terms of combat effectiveness, and the price/performance ratio is indeed very good. Although the price of one long sword hand is equivalent to the price of four theocratic angels, one long sword hand can match the combat power of at least ten theocratic angels. In this way, it is not expensive, but cheap. But after all, I don’t have enough money. Even if I knew it was cheaper, I wouldn’t have the money to buy it!

"Erlang Zhenjun, please help me recommend the next unit of arms!" I plan to record everything I need first, calculate the price and go back to raise funds. If it doesn't work, I will borrow some from the Northern Alliance and other friendly guilds. Really, such a big guild has actually gotten to this point. What a pain!

Erlangshen recruited another group of soldiers and introduced them. "This is the type of soldier you need most."

I just took one look and nodded: "Archers are indeed the best unit in air combat."

The armor of these soldiers is lighter than the previous two arms, and each of them carries a golden bow on their hips and an arrow box on their backs. Unlike the quivers of European archers, the quivers of these soldiers are rectangular containers with a volume that is at least ten times that of the quivers. There are also a row of small boxes hanging on the waists of these soldiers. It looks weird. These little boxes are about the same size as pencil boxes, but slightly thicker.

Erlang Shen walked up to a soldier and said: "These are spiritual archers, which are somewhat different from ordinary archers. Pay attention to the boxes on their waists. These are dimensional storage boxes, and they are filled with written spells." "

"What are you doing with the charm?"

Erlangshen patted the soldier on the shoulder and said, "Show him a show."

The soldier immediately took off his golden bow and drew a feather arrow from his back. But he didn't 'shoot' right away. Instead, he looked at me and asked, "Which talisman do you want to see first?"

Erlangshen interjected: "He hasn't even seen it, so you can try it one by one."

"Yes." The archer immediately used the arrow shaft to place it lightly on the box on the far left. The front of the box emitted a golden light and it ended in a flash. However, there was an extra arrow wrapped around it. There is yellow talisman paper on the pole. It turns out that the purpose of these boxes is to attach the talismans stored inside directly to the arrow shafts. The archer nocked the arrow and nodded to the side. A soldier took a stone and threw it at?

His hand immediately raised the arrow, but the direction he aimed was far different from the stone. As soon as he loosened his hand, the arrow flew out immediately. Strangely, the arrow made a U-turn in the air and flew towards the stone. There was a snap. The stone was pierced through the heart, and the arrow landed with the stone, with the stone on the arrow shaft.

The archer immediately said: "What I just showed is a tracking charm. Before shooting, the archer locks the target with his eyes, and then releases the arrow with the target in mind. When the arrow flies out, it will continue to track the target for one stick of incense. , unless the target can continuously dodge during this period, the arrow will lose power after the timeout. Otherwise, the arrow will keep chasing the target."

It tracks the guidance arrow, and it is the kind that can be fired and left alone.

After the archer said that I couldn't comment, he showed the remaining talismans one after another. Explain the purpose of each shot.

The second talisman is the explosive talisman. The arrows fired are like cannonballs. They explode immediately when they hit the target. The power is not small.

The third one is a fire talisman. It won't explode when it explodes, but it will stick to and burn for ten minutes near the target being shot. When he was demonstrating it to me, the fire talisman burned a shield until it turned red. The surface of the shield was as soft as noodles, and it would melt if it was heated again.

The fourth talisman is a power enhancement talisman. In order to demonstrate what power enhancement is, this time they specially got a stone as big as a house as the target. The arrow flew two hundred meters and 'shot' through the seven-meter-thick stone. Then it penetrated from behind the stone and penetrated five layers of shields before getting stuck in the sixth shield. This arrow could simply Shooting people through the city wall.

The fifth talisman is more common. But the power is terrifying. This is a Five Thunder Talisman. I have seen gold coins used in the Sky Thunder Talisman before. Wherever the Heavenly Thunder Talisman is attached, a thunderbolt will fall from the sky and attack that location. This time, the Earthly Five Thunder Talisman was shot out with the arrow, and it still hit the big stone. However, the penetration power of the arrow this time was very average, and it only penetrated about three inches. But as soon as the arrow hit the stone, lightning suddenly struck down from the sky without warning, and the stone cracked on the spot. What surprised me even more was that this Five Thunder Talisman was different from the Heavenly Thunder Talisman of gold coins. Flowers bloomed immediately after the thunder and lightning fell, and arcs flashed in all directions.

When the sixth talisman was demonstrated, it had no effect, but it was said that it was a magic talisman. With this talisman, the arrow becomes a magic-breaking arrow. Any magic, Taoism, sorcery, spiritual power, anyway, as long as it is not a defense formed by physical force, it will be able to break through it. No matter what kind of protective magic shield you have, it will become a piece of paper when it encounters this arrow. This thing is simply a mage nemesis.

After demonstrating all six talismans, I have decided that I will buy this unit no matter how expensive it is. It’s simply a super unit!

Erlang Shen heard me ask about the price and immediately smiled and said: "This unit is also very expensive, each one costs 5,000 crystal coins."

I couldn't help but gasp. It is indeed a very expensive price! "Why is it so expensive?"

Erlang Shen said: "These soldiers themselves are just sharp archers. There is nothing special except that they can shoot very accurately, but the bow they carry is a very valuable thing. The cost of the bow is only 1,000 crystal coins, so the soldiers have It is also relatively expensive. Moreover, these archers also work part-time as Taoist priests, and they make all their own talismans. However, they can only make these six kinds of talismans and not other Taoist arts."

"Rune Archer. You can also make your own charms. No wonder it's so expensive. By the way, what's so special about that bow that it's worth 1,000 crystal coins?"

Erlang Shen exaggeratedly said: "That is a golden bow, with its own ballistic stability and extended firepower. I just wanted to let you see clearly. So they were all performed at close range. In fact, the 'shooting' range of these archers is better than that of all mages." It’s far away from siege weapons, and its power is beyond your imagination!”

"So strong?"

"It's not the archer's problem, it's all because of this bow. Give them an ordinary bow, and their shooting range will be dozens of meters farther than ordinary archers, but the golden bow can make any archer reach It turns out that it has ten times the 'shooting' range, which is why this bow is so expensive. By the way, these archers' arrows are actually not ordinary arrows. Their arrows are marked with storms, and they will not deviate due to airflow even in strong winds. Flight path.”

“You really get what you pay for.”

"of course."

I looked at the other arms: "Is there anything else worth recommending?"

Erlang Shendao: "As a friend, I suggest you use these three types of soldiers to form an army. It is useless if you equip other types of soldiers. The air cavalry is different from the troops on the ground. Heavy-duty shield bearers and so on Soldiers are not suitable for air combat, only these three types of troops with strong assault power are enough."

"Then do you have any troops suitable for defending the city? You don't need to be able to ride a horse, they just need to be able to participate in city defense."

Erlang Shen thought for a while and then said: "Heavenly Court rarely engages in defensive battles. We always attack others. Heavenly Court's defense is offense. Besides, there is nothing to defend in Heavenly Court."

"Forget it." I nodded: "Can you take me to see the Jade Emperor? I want to talk to him about something."

"Of course. But these soldiers...?"

"I have no money now. I will come back to you when I raise funds."

"That's fine too."

Erlang Shen quickly took me to the Heavenly Court, and the Jade Emperor was extremely polite to me now. I heard that my request for a meeting would be granted immediately. It is not so convenient for ordinary people to seek an audience with the Jade Emperor.

After seeing the Jade Emperor in the Imperial Garden, I immediately ran over. The Jade Emperor asked me to sit down and then asked Erlang Shen to wait outside.

"What's going on this time?" asked the Jade Emperor.

"Actually, I want to discuss a small deal with you."

"Oh? Talk about a deal with me? Let's talk about it." The Jade Emperor was obviously very interested in this.

"Don't you hope to rescue Sun Wukong and Fairy Zizhu from the hands of the Buddha Sect?"

"of course."

"You said last time that if I could save them, you could give me a reward, right?"

"Yes. As long as you can rescue them, I will naturally reward you heavily."

I nodded: "I just want to ask if I can designate the prize myself?"

"What do you want?" The Jade Emperor looked at me and said, "There are some things in heaven that cannot be given away. I can't give you everything you want."

"Of course. The thing I want is actually soldiers. Just now Mr. Erlang took me to see the barracks in Heaven. I like those soldiers very much, but at this price...!"

The Jade Emperor understood immediately. "You think the price is too expensive, and you want to exchange a few soldiers for rewards, right?"

"That's roughly what I mean, but I'm not asking you to give me a few soldiers for free. I want to get a good discount from you. In war, people will die. Although the heavenly soldiers are powerful, they can't have zero casualties. If they die, they need to be replenished. When the time comes and I need money again, I can't afford to buy so many soldiers. I'm wondering if you can give me a permanent discount. I will buy soldiers at the same price in the future, so that it can be cheaper. I can also afford it when I replenish my army. .”

"Interesting." The Jade Emperor thought for a moment and said: "This is the first time I have heard such a request from others. But if you can really rescue Sun Wukong and Zizhu Fairy, it is not impossible. If you rescue them two If you come back, I will give you a 20% discount on your future purchases of soldiers."

I smiled cheekily and said, "To tell you the truth, the price of Tianbing is too high, and I can't afford the 20% discount!"

"This is already an exception." The Jade Emperor still did not intend to give in.

I thought for a moment and said: "Then how do I count the credit for destroying the demon tribe's lair in one go and the trouble for the Buddha Sect? I have already planned a detailed strategy."

"Tell me your strategy and I'll listen."

"Then you have to agree that if you adopt my plan, you will give me a 10% discount on all my future purchases of heavenly weapons."

"You're too greedy. What's the difference between a 10% discount and a free gift? Including the Heavenly Soldiers' equipment, Heavenly Court is paying the price! No matter how good your plan is, I can give you a 50% discount at most."

"Since we don't agree on the same opinion, let's make a compromise. Is it three-thirds?"

"Compromise? You really know how to think about it!"

I thought about it and said: "Then in order to show the lofty status of the Jade Emperor, I give in and let's move closer to your price. But you can't completely ignore my opinion, right? How about just 40% off? Plus buy ten and get free 1. Money has been tight lately and life has been tough!"

The Jade Emperor thought hard for a long time before agreeing to my suggestion. "40% off is 40% off, but buy ten and get one free instead of buying 100 and get one free."

"Buy 100 get one free?"

"Don't worry, I won't let you down. If you buy a hundred soldiers, I will give you a mythical beast."

"What level of mythical beast is it? The beetle pulling the cart is also considered a mythical beast. Don't fool me!"

"You are the only human spirit like you, and you actually call yourself an honest person!" The Jade Emperor shook his head and said: "Except for the top-level beasts, you can choose the rest. Is that okay?"

"Thank you Jade Emperor for the gift." I immediately said: "Actually, you are not at a loss, my plan is very simple." I began to tell Shuixu and the others all the strategic plan that I had told Shuixu and the others. Of course, some parts needed to be modified. He said, "You can't let the Jade Emperor know that I have any connection with monsters."

The Jade Emperor was very happy after hearing my plan. He agreed on the spot to add one to the original reward. Also give me two Xuanming chariots. Although I don’t know what this chariot is used for, the fact that the Jade Emperor only sent two units shows that this thing should be quite powerful.

After bidding farewell to the Jade Emperor, Erlang Shen first took me to the warehouse to get the two chariots. This is a reward for my contribution to heaven, and I can cash it in now. When I saw this Xuanming chariot in the warehouse, I first felt that it looked more like a handicraft than a war machine. The chariot's frame is a body with four wheels. Its appearance is very similar to that of a large European carriage, but this chariot has many carved decorations. And because the surface is all golden. So it looks very luxurious. The wheels of the chariot are in the style of Chinese carriages. The large wheel discs do not have steel wires like today's bicycles. This wheel is a single solid disc. There are many things depicted in relief on the disk, but it's hard to tell whether they are paintings or text. Because the car body itself is very large, the wheels look a bit small instead of not being big. In fact, the diameter of the four wheels is almost 1.9 meters, which is taller than me. There is a ladder structure on the frame like the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. There is a small altar at the top, about one square meter in size. There is a huge blood jade with a diameter of half a meter in the center of the altar. The blood jade is surrounded by a circle of yellow Qinhuang stones.

"Is this the Xuanming Chariot?"

"right."

"What's the use of this thing like a float?"

Erlangshen didn't answer and asked instead: "Can you assist with magic? Curse-type and blessing-type lands are both fine."

"of course."

"Then add some evil curses to me. Then add blessings to yourself."

I was confused and added a strength weakening and a magic extraction to Erlang Shen, and I added a strength strengthening and a damage rebound to myself. Erlang Shen saw that after I finished adding it, he climbed up to Cheshan, and then stood on the red blood jade. I saw circles of golden flames lighting up in order from top to bottom on the stairs like the Temple of Heaven on the car, and then the flames began to rotate. The bottom circle rotates counterclockwise, and the upper layer rotates clockwise. All odd-numbered levels are the same as the first level, and all even-numbered levels are the same as the second level. I suddenly found that the blessing magic in me was gone. The curse on Erlang Shen also disappeared.

The flames on the car quickly stopped turning and then extinguished layer by layer, and Erlang Shen also jumped down. "How's it going? Do you know what the land is for?"

"It turns out to be magic dispelling."

"It's not just a simple dispelling of magic, it's a conscious dispersing. The person sitting on the top can use his own conscious control to dispel the positive magic on the enemy and the negative magic on himself. It also has a certain resistance to attack magic. Although it cannot be offset, it can cause the enemy's attack magic to decay rapidly as the appearance time increases. For example, magic missiles will continue to shrink from the moment they are released. If the distance is too far, they may disappear halfway. There is also the Fire Eye Wall. This magic The power should be stable before the time limit, but with this Xuanming Chariot around, the wall of flames will burn weaker and weaker, and eventually extinguish itself."

"Is it equally useful for Taoism?"

"Of course. As long as the magic power is available, it will be effective. Moreover, the wheels of this chariot have the ability to fly. As long as the chariot is started, the weight of the body is equal to zero. It can move quickly in the air using the two Pegasus horses."

"What's the radius of action?"

" inside."

"That's 10 kilometers, not bad."

After Erlangshen finished the introduction, he sent a few soldiers to help me pull the car back to Essinger. Although these super large vehicles are not small in size, they lose weight as soon as they start. With a gentle breath, it can float forward a short distance. After returning to Essinger, he sent Erlang Shen away and quickly ran to find Rose.

After asking the guards in the parliament hall, they found out that Rose was in Steel City. When they arrived at the teleportation array in Steel City, they quickly ran to the ground. This is now the busiest place in our guild. Almost all the engineering staff and non-combat players in the guild are busy here. As for NPC workers, there are almost as many as ants.

The huge construction platform at the top of the steel city has doubled in area. Dozens of huge gantry cranes are lined up in the new construction area, and countless workers are busy up and down. A large number of alchemists on the ground used magic to weld metal parts. You can never imagine the spectacular sight of hundreds of thousands of people squatting on the ground together playing with magic welding machines. Sparks were flying on the field as if fireworks were being set off. In the warehouse next to the elevator, a large number of heavy loaders were pulled in and out of the warehouse by Warcraft. The player responsible for the command shouted loudly at the NPC workers with a simple trumpet rolled out of iron.

"Ziri, are you here?" Woma happened to be coming from the construction site. See me standing next to the lift in a daze.

"Woma! It's so lively here!"

"I just want to be quiet and have time! Five million workers! Look, it's all a mess! It's impossible to keep so many people commanded by just a few hundred players."

"Didn't we transfer some management staff to you?"

"Yes! Yesterday, an administrator came, and as a result, 700,000 workers and 100,000 alchemists came. The management gap is even bigger!"

"You should work harder! I really have no one to send here. After Essinger was opened, those players have regarded us as a tourist destination. When there are more people, there will be more troubles. Yesterday alone, Essinger happened After more than 3,000 batches of malicious PK incidents involving players, Vader chased me and asked where I had taken his security captain."

Woma laughed when she heard this. "Are the ones you gave me the security captains of Vader?"

"What's the matter?"

"I wonder why these guys are guarding workers like prisoners! It's a professional habit to do this for a long time."

"That guy Vader almost didn't drag me to be a member of the urban management team. What a mess. Fortunately, I had the foresight to open only the outer and middle rings of Essinger on the ground. If the inner ring and Essinger in the sky were also opened. If it's open, Vader will probably tie us all up and use them as security forces."

"Haha, who told you to suddenly take on such a big project for us?"

I looked towards the manufacturing site and asked, "How's the progress?"

Woma raised her right hand and pointed behind me: "The big guy over there is the butterfly city of the butterfly tribe, which was just completed last night." She turned her hand and pointed behind her: "The one behind me with its teeth and claws snarling is the wasp tribe. The Wasp Fortress." She pointed to her right again: "The one with the huge wingspan on my right is the Dragonfly Castle of the Dragonfly Clan. That thing caused us to use three thousand tons of fiberboard. When Rose counted the money, They’re all shaking.”

"Then what is this semi-finished product over here?" I pointed to the thing on her left.

"Oh, this is the Leech Clan's Snot Castle."

"What? Snot Castle?" I looked at this long cylindrical structure. The workers seemed to be applying a coffee-colored thing on it.

Woma said: "The structure of the Leech Clan's Snot Castle is the simplest of all castles. Moreover, the materials for this thing are also cheap, so we plan to build it first."

"What are you putting on that?"

"It's mud."

"mud?"

"It's just mud. Mix the soil and water and then use a blender to make a paste. The contracting of this leech clan does not require any valuables. You only need to weave a rough shape with soft rattan, then spread mud on it and wait for the mud to dry. Apply the second layer after it is half dry, and then apply the third layer when the second layer is almost dry. Repeat this a few times and it is done. This is a desert area, and the sun is relatively strong. The construction speed can be relatively fast. a little."

"Where are the other castles?"

"The Ant Clan's army ant fortress is being modernized in the underground warehouse, and magic cannons and weapon systems are being installed. The other tribes are still in parts, and we don't have that much manpower to assemble them together for the time being. We don't have enough large-scale lifting equipment, so there's nothing we can do Assembling so many castles at the same time." Woma suddenly said: "Are you so anxious to use them to attack Japan?"

"You have to support the army. Only by letting them fight can it be really productive. I want to re-establish Fulcrum City. It must be assisted by these large war machines to block the counterattack of Japanese players. Let's talk about new projects. Don’t let the arriving Pegasus hordes go to waste!”

"Understood, I'll ask everyone to speed up."

I nodded: "I'll leave everything here to you." I looked around again: "The guard said the rose is here. Did you see it?"

"She is counting the goods in the warehouse over there. The guild we did business with last time sold us something of poor quality, and Rose is talking to them about returning it."

"Okay, then I'll go there by myself and you can go about your business."

When I ran to the warehouse, I happened to see a group of laymen leaving. Those people looked very angry, and they had probably been beaten by roses. I ran into the warehouse. Rose was holding a notebook and checking numbers with several players from her guild.

"Husband, why did you come here?" Rose seemed to have feelings. He turned back to look at me unconsciously.

"I have something to do with you."

Rose handed the book in her hand to the player beside her and gave some instructions before she came over and took my hand and walked out. "What's going on?"

"I would like to ask how much funds are left in the guild that can be mobilized."

The rose jumped away like an electric shock. "What are you going to do again?"

"I want to increase the number of troops."

"Aren't there enough troops in the guild?"

"It's enough to maintain the status quo, but I want to build Fulcrum City again. The Japanese people's spirit of resistance is no less than ours. If all the current troops are filled in, local defense will become a problem!"

Rose held me in her arm and continued to walk out: "What you said makes sense. But the guild's funds are very tight now. Recently, I have been digging to make up for the west. It's really too much for me to take on big projects. . Unless you want to slow down the construction of the Thirteen Tribes’ fortress.”

"No. The construction of Fulcrum City requires the support of this backing. Without thirteen mobile fortresses, no amount of troops can stop the crazy counterattack of this Japanese player."

Rose thought for a long time and said: "If I squeeze it out, I can barely get some together. The question is, how much do you want?"

"Heaven now has three arms suitable for air combat, two of which are worth 5,000 crystal coins each. The other one is worth 4,500 crystal coins."

"Why are soldiers so expensive?"

"Magic weapon."

"That's too expensive! How much does a law enforcement knight in our guild cost?"

"I have discussed it with the Jade Emperor. As long as I help him complete a task, he can give me a 40% discount."

"40% off? That's not cheap either!"

"That's not bad. Most people can't even think of saving a single coin. But to be honest, the combat effectiveness of Heavenly Court's troops is really strong."

"Very strong?" Rose looked at me: "How does it compare with our current legion?"

"Let's put it this way. Our current army is an elite force, and its combat effectiveness is definitely very strong. But the troops in Heaven are more like special forces, and their individual combat skills are not at the same level as our troops. The three I selected this time There is a swordsman in each unit, which is simply a meat grinder. Use them to form the first echelon to charge, and no enemy can maintain the formation. There are also those archers who can use Taoist symbols to make explosive arrows, and Their golden bows have a very long range. They are completely miniature artillery."

"So it's really cost-effective." Rose suddenly came around to me and hugged me and asked, "Does heaven allow resale?"

"That's not even said."

Rose's eyes immediately flashed: "Look, is there a loophole? Since Heaven has no regulations, we will resell it. Even if Heaven adds this clause later, they will not be able to pursue the part sold. We will treat it as It's a one-time transaction, let's compare the profits later."

"That's right! Why didn't I think of that? Then let's find a buyer right now."

"Buyers don't have to think about it." Rose pointed directly at my nose and said, "The Northern Alliance is the only guild with the financial resources. And their relationship with us is pretty good, so we can feel more at ease selling to them."

"Then let's go now?"

Rose quickly grabbed me and said: "Don't worry. In this way, you first go to the Heavenly Court and buy 10 of each type of arms, and then we will take this unit to the Northern Alliance to show them. As long as the strength of the Heavenly Soldiers is really strong. The Northern Alliance will I don’t care about the price.”

"Then how much do you plan to sell it for?"

Rose smiled evilly and said: "This is not easy. Let them try to fight with soldiers from other forces. How much can one heavenly soldier defeat the guards of other forces? We will set this price for the heavenly soldiers, and we can even add a little more. .Soldiers are expensive, not expensive. If one heavenly soldier can destroy ten ordinary soldiers, even if it is more expensive than the ten ordinary soldiers put together, it is worth it. Because one soldier concentrates the combat power of ten soldiers, In this way, the troop mobility speed and supply problems will be much smaller. If the soldiers are strong enough, they can even use the teleportation array to transport them. Anyway, the teleportation array charges based on weight, not combat effectiveness."

I couldn't help holding Rose's head and kissed her. "My family consultant is still great. Wait, I will go to Heaven to buy some samples and come back."

The problem of buying soldiers is very simple. Anyway, I have permission, and they will sell them as long as I pay them. However, Erlang Shen was a little curious as to why I bought ten of each kind, but he didn’t ask, so naturally I wouldn’t take the initiative to tell him. Because the mission of rescuing Sun Wukong and Zizhu Fairy has not yet been completed, we cannot get the 40% discount for the time being. Anyway, there are only 10 of each. It doesn't cost much.

After returning to Isengard, Rose and I took a total of 810 people from these 81 types to the Northern Alliance. This time I wanted to let the Northern Alliance know what advanced arms are. It would be best for them to buy something worth 18,000 yuan from me when they are hot-headed.

The Northern Alliance was surprised that the two leaders of our guild both appeared. As a result, Yanyu quickly rushed back to the Northern Alliance headquarters from various cities with the eight managers of her guild. As soon as Yanyu entered the headquarters compound, she saw 810 heavenly soldiers lined up neatly. At that time, her eyes lit up. Rose and I stood at the window of the room and looked at the door. The misty and rainy expressions already told me how to make an offer. The longing look in Yanyu's eyes represents demand, and when there is demand, there is value. This is the rule.

Yanyu quickly averted his eyes from the soldiers, but he still looked back at them from time to time. Finally, he hurried into the room with his men.

"President Ziri! What brought you to our Northern Alliance?" Yanyu came over politely and shook hands with me.

"Hey, what brought me here this time was the panic buying trend."

"Shopping style?" Yanyu was stunned by me.

I glanced out the window. "Want it?"

Yanyu followed me mechanically and looked outside, and then she understood in an instant. He looked at me with wide eyes: "These are the standard troops you can buy?"

"What else do you think?"

"I thought it was your magic pet just now! I heard that your magic pet always appears in groups."
