Chapter 278 Mr. Chen's Thoughts [Subscribe]
The cities and settlements around Magtan were all talking about it.
They were very curious about how the small Magtan survived the demonic disaster.
You have to know that the blockade of the Dark Mandala light curtain lasted for several Naro days.
As a giant light curtain covering an area of more than 200 kilometers.
The situation there would naturally be noticed by the surrounding areas.
In addition, the merchants who traveled to Magtan City but were blocked by the light curtain in those days spread the news.
So when Chen Xuan mentioned Magtan City, Tris Landau understood what he meant almost instantly.
Chen Xuan was hinting that the mercenary group he was going to introduce was the key to Magtan City's survival of the demonic disaster.
Not to mention how credible this statement was.
His mysterious look alone aroused Tris's interest.
"If I see this mercenary group with my own eyes."
"Maybe I will consider hiring it."
"Price is not a problem. I am the Golden Deer of the Landau family."
Golden Deer is the self-proclaimed name of the Landau family.
In fact, it is true. The Lando family is indeed not short of money.
Speaking of which, their business is somewhat related to Mr. Chen.
The aluminum tableware that is popular in the Naroa continent today was first hyped by the Lando family.
They and several thunder masters under the family accidentally found a low-cost aluminum smelting method.
Then they packaged and hyped the aluminum tableware as a luxury item for the nobility.
In this way, they harvested nobles and wealthy businessmen from all over the country.
The Lando family has been selling aluminum products for nearly ten Naroa years.
The Naroa continent is too vast, and the efficiency of information dissemination is too low.
So after ten Naroa years, aluminum products still have a market.
Even Baron Bezos prepared a set in the restaurant.
This is the result of a large market and too many grievances.
Most small nobles and petty businessmen can afford a set of tableware that costs hundreds of crowns.
And this thing has become a must-have item for banquets.
At the beginning, Chen Xuan made a small profit by selling aluminum tableware.
Later, it was discovered that the rigid demand for Demon Tears was more profitable.
But for the Lando family, which had completely expanded the market and occupied a dominant sales position.
Selling aluminum products is indeed a profitable business.
After becoming rich, the Lando family's strength has expanded rapidly.
In the past ten Naroa years, the territory controlled by their family has increased by about one-third.
Originally, the emblem of the Lando family was a big-horned spotted deer.
They always called themselves the descendants of spotted deer.
But later, they changed their name to Golden Deer.
Seeing Tris Lando's confident statement, Chen Xuan catered to it on the surface, but sneered in his heart.
If he was really as arrogant as he showed, he would not have been so angry here for the discount on the Dark Gold Card.
He wanted a discount, but he couldn't wait for the Deepwater Valley Mining Merchants to station to replenish the stock.
This is both efficiency and discounts, which shows that his temperament is not as gentle as he showed at this time.
Of course, Tris must have savings.
Magtan City previously had 30 to 40 million kronor in financial funds.
According to the size of Blue Wind City, the financial funds are at least 100 to 200 million kronor.
In addition, Tris was sent here, and the personal savings he brought with him are probably tens of millions of kronor.
In other words, the amount of funds that the other party can mobilize is estimated to be no more than 200 million kronor.
For Chen Xuan, it is not too rich.
Hearing Tris say that he wants to meet the unfounded mercenary group.
Chen Xuan readily agreed.
The two parties agreed to meet outside the Qiyuan Castle between Magtan City and Blue Wind City in seven Naro days.
At the same time, they left crystal tokens to each other and signed a contract to meet.
Chen Xuan had no objection to this, anyway, the contract was invalid for him.
However, for Tris, a traditional Naroan, the contract can let him put aside his worries.
Abuse of contracts is also a common situation among the current Naroan natives.
After reaching a consensus, the two sides seemed very friendly.
Triss Landau had been trying to find out about the mysterious forces behind Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan smiled and practiced Tai Chi, talking about this and that but not getting to the point.
With such mutual pulling, the two sides seemed to be chatting very enthusiastically.
This scene stunned Reza Blackstone, who was secretly watching not far away.
Not long ago, Count Triss Landau was still clamoring for Chen Xuan to transfer some of the mineral materials to him.
But now it was a polite scene.
Reza had dealt with Count Triss more than once.
He knew very well what kind of person this guy was.
Count Triss was good at changing his face. Many times he seemed gentle, but in fact he was irritable and irritable.
He was still laughing and talking in the last second, and he turned the table over in the next second.
It was because of this violent temper that he caused trouble and was eventually "exiled" by the Landau family.
However, as a famous Golden Deer family.
Triss Landau was not short of money.
As long as he had money, he could live freely anywhere.
In addition, the territory of Blue Wind Castle is relatively wealthy, with abundant supplies of all kinds. Every Naroa month, large traveling merchants from the giant city of Attucks visit and bring him all kinds of luxurious ingredients.
This guy even often sends his men to those big places through the teleportation array of the Black Leaf Outpost to buy the items he needs.
He is a rare flower among the state-level lords in the vicinity.
After all, ordinary state-level lords and small nobles would never let four golden knights serve as squires.
This is the benefit of having the protection of a big family.
If you let out a little bit, it will not be comparable to these "countryside" lords.
But now, Chen Xuan is definitely not a simple person, who can make Triss Lando willingly suppress his anger and pretend to be with him.
Although Reza Blackstone is a stubborn dwarf.
But he is the manager of the merchant group station after all, and he can be said to have seen countless people.
Observing words and expressions can only be regarded as basic skills.
After thinking about it, he finally only thought of one possibility for the situation in front of him, that is, Chen Xuan is awesome!
Shaking his head, he continued to sort out the list and calculate the total price of this batch of goods.
Just now, he was disturbed by Count Triss, so he had to temporarily stop his work.
Now we have to hurry up and continue.
The shop assistants were all busy, preparing the goods according to the list provided by Chen Xuan, and putting the mineral materials and ingots together in different categories.
The total value of this batch of goods is nearly 20 million crowns.
In comparison, Count Tris, whose single purchase price is 1 or 2 million crowns, seems a bit clumsy.
This guy is very willing to spend money when he enjoys it.
But he has always been stingy when it comes to city construction expenses.
The difference is obvious, it is obvious.
Reza Blackstone was doing the accounts and marveled in his heart.
About half a water clock later.
Count Tris Landau's transfer goods have been in place.
Chen Xuan's goods are still being prepared.
Because the goods of the two are not of the same order of magnitude.
Let his men use space storage jewelry to store all the goods.
Because Chen Xuan was around, Tris did not cut the price of the dark gold card again after the discount.
Instead, he waved his hand and left in a pretentious manner.
"Sir, see you another day."
He said hello to Chen Xuan, and then left the Black Leaf Seventh Shop under the escort of four golden knights.
Watching Tris leave, Chen Xuan quietly raised the corners of his mouth.
"What an interesting guy."
He didn't think Tris Landau was annoying.
In fact, this kind of person has a distinct personality, and his arrogance is based on the protection of his family's wings.
As long as you understand his character, it is not difficult to control him.
The truly difficult opponent is the old hard pen who seems harmless, but has actually calculated countless times in his mind.
He plans to send Magtan's second mobilization corps to be stationed in Blue Wind Castle.
While maintaining normal training, it is also a dark chess move.
At present, Magtan has three mobilization corps.
The core of the first corps is the initial more than 600 mobilized soldiers.
With the end of the magic disaster, it was expanded to 1,200 people.
The Second Corps has a total of 1,018 people, and is still in training, as is the Third Corps.
Strictly speaking, only the First Corps has real combat effectiveness and can combine supernatural powers with firearms.
But it doesn't matter, he and Tris agreed on a time after seven Naroya days.
In two weeks, with their supernatural physique and good learning ability, those girls and boys from the Black Street will soon be able to complete the initial training and form a certain combat effectiveness.
All Magtan mobilized soldiers come from the Black Street forces.
They are all young people and outstanding ones.
The magic element cultivation level is generally at the Black Iron and Bronze levels.
Assisted by 8 to 12 Silver-level masters, a gradient combat power is formed.
After matching the light and heavy individual firearms from Blue Star, their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated, which is much stronger than the average cultivation level.
Even facing a small number of Gold-level masters, they can still win.
There is nothing that can't be solved by firing a 70mm armor-piercing rocket with an RPG rocket. If there is, then fire two, three, four, five, six, seven, and eight.
This principle is simple and crude, but very useful.
So Chen Xuan is very confident in the combat effectiveness of the Magtan mobilized soldiers.
In addition to collecting commissions, Earl Tris will also be responsible for their food, clothing, housing and transportation during the period of placing a team in Blue Wind Castle.
And the basic expenditure per person per Naroya day is not less than 35 crowns, which is already a very high standard.
For this reason, Earl Tris Landau must spend at least 35,630 crowns per Naroya day, and this is only the bottom line, not the upper limit.
Of course, if you want him to pay willingly.
The Magtan mobilized soldiers must show their skills.
This is not a problem. At that time, let Tris send a golden knight to try the power of the PRG rocket with silver-level magic element blessing.
Watching Tris Landau and the four golden knights gradually walk away.
Chen Xuan also collected his thoughts.
He sat in a chair and drank the flower tea brewed by the Deepwater Valley Mining Merchants Group.
He looked relaxed.
This wave of purchases further made up for the current shortage of materials in Magtan City.
And it did not hinder the normal development of other trade lines.
Before the outbreak of the demonic disaster, the more material reserves, the better.
Many guys with connections have heard about the demonic disaster.
But this is not a rare thing.
Looking at the history of war between the Naroa continent and the demons.
Almost every few dozen or one or two hundred Naroya years, there will always be a demonic disaster.
So the demonic disaster is just a concept, which means that the demons will attack in large numbers.
The war will spread from the local front to the entire continent.
There are also differences between demonic disasters.
It is mainly reflected in the intensity of the invasion after the outbreak.
A weakly invaded demonic disaster is easy to deal with, and even has little impact on normal trade.
But a strong invaded demonic disaster is different.
Many huge cities may be destroyed by the massive attack of the demons.
Therefore, many people only heard the news of the arrival of the demonic disaster, but did not know how strong it was.
As for preparation, almost all places have standing supplies.
Enough to cope with a protracted war.
This is also a "good habit" passed down after thousands of Naroya years of war.
As a result, the importance of the demonic disaster in various places is also different.
Some are more cautious, while others are more lazy.
The stalemate of nearly a hundred years of Naroya has made it so that the new generation of rulers now have almost no witnesses of the demonic disaster.
Human forgetfulness is fully revealed.
But no matter what, Tris Landau's initiative to improve the defense of Blue Wind Castle was entirely due to the family's warning.
The Landau family must have some channels to obtain information from the upper level.
So they understand the severity of this demonic disaster.
Twisting his neck, Chen Xuan leaned back on the recliner.
He simply chose to close his eyes and rest.
The Deepwater Valley Mining Merchants Group will have to wait for a while.
…
Just when Chen Xuan stayed in the Black Leaf Outpost.
Relying on the capital in his hands, he was dominating the world.
In a hidden valley hundreds of kilometers away from the outpost.
Oga, the Charm of Blasphemy, was sitting cross-legged on a huge stone.
She closed her eyes tightly, as if she was sensing something.
The aggressive black group had long been disbanded.
The succubi and gargoyles in it fell one by one.
The succubi gathered together, all of them were sexy beauties with hot bodies and charming faces. They showed silver bullet smiles, and every move revealed temptation.
The gargoyles turned into cold stone statues after landing.
Compared with the emotional and intelligent succubi.
These guys are more like ruthless killing machines.
In fact, it is true.
As a demon descendant who can transform between stone statues and flesh and blood at will, it is still a bit abnormal.
They occupied this valley as a temporary stopover.
At this time, the blasphemous charm Oga was trying to communicate with the Black Flame Lord, who was in an area not covered by the void authority.
It is not easy to do this.
The guardian rules of the silver moon can isolate her from trying to send contact requests to the outside world.
After trying for several water clocks in a row.
The distant void finally responded.
"Oga?"
"It seems you are in trouble."
The deep voice of the Black Flame Lord sounded in her ears.
"Lord."
"I found the guy who took the [Wanyuan Order] from Bailey. He is the controller of the law of time."
Hearing the voice of the Black Flame Demon Lord, Oga hurriedly reported.
...
