Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 1186 One hundred twenty-four. New allies along the way

   "Lu Li will visit the old sewer soon"

  In the early morning, the guest room upstairs of the tavern.

  Lu Li swept through today's "Dijuren Commercial Daily", the itinerary was not unexpectedly blurred due to Lu Li's stay in Meishan Town.

   He was getting acquainted with the rules of the ritual. You can avoid the hassle of pointing too clearly, just by avoiding the trip before the newspaper's release.

   Unknown rituals are proclamations, not prophecies.

   "Where's Anthony the Merchant?"

   "At the edge of the hill, join the returning treant," replied the merchant wearing a dirty brown scarf.

A    scarf is the easiest way to differentiate each merchant.

   Merchant Anthony is very close to the town of Coal Hill. Lu Li didn't set off for the time being, ignoring the moaning that sounded in the early morning next door, waiting for the five treemen and one strong treemen who were escorting businessman Anthony to enter Meishan Town.

   Standing in front of the window on the second floor, Lu Li finally saw the believers in Meishan Town—they stretched out six arms from their armpits like spiders, and their bodies were covered in black cinders, like people who had fallen into ink.

   They should be the worst group of believers Lu Li has ever seen.

  These emaciated, anxious silhouettes hurried past to Anthony, the merchant who appeared in Coal Hill.

   People on the street whispered, wondering how the believers would react. It didn't take long for them to get the message that a merchant belonging to the Exorcist had appeared in Coal Mountain Town.

  At the same time, the merchants have brought the result of this negotiation: the trade between the Land of Light and Meishan Town has been reached. At the same time, because the land of light belongs to a relatively high-ranking supplier, the gods and the church are friendly enough - Meishan Town lacks resources than the land of light that needs coal.

  Meishan Town is willing to use a switch to take all resources, including soil that is worthless to the outside world.

Because the Bright Land hopes that Meishan Town can become an ally in the future, the Swamp Mother did not trade with it according to the "one pound of sand for one pound" information brought back by Lu Li, but the sand is indeed part of the transaction - about ten pounds of sand for one pound. a pound of coal.

  Coal Hill thinks they make a profit, and so does the Land of Light.

  The sand dug out of the shelter has become food for the worms, but there are still remnants of the Vortex Land. The camp can sell sand as cargo to Meishan Town while clearing the ruins.

  Although the sand transported by the merchants will pollute the upper world, it is better than sitting on fuel that can burn for hundreds of years.

   "The town of Meishan is so barren, why did he build a town of gods here." Because it would be known to mention the name of the alien god, Lu Li avoided his title.

  Meishan Town was formerly called Meishan Town, a town built on an open-pit coal mine.

  The Merchant relayed the Swamp Mother's answer: "He said the Coal Mountains were barren and strange little."

After entering the hills, the strangeness does disappear along the way. The barrenness forms a natural barrier for Meishan Town, but it also limits its development. The mother of the swamp said that the gods of Meishan Town are as weak as newborn gods, and the believers died due to the difficult environment. to one hundred.

   This means that it is not difficult to become an ally with the town of Meishan that needs assistance, and they can get what they want.

  Lack of fuel has always limited the scientific development of steam engines, internal combustion engines, and steel smelting. Obtaining high-quality coal from Meishan Town will change the progress of the scientific curve. And the coal mountain town that trades with the land of light will also improve the harsh environment and gradually attract residents to migrate - at least not only one tavern and one intelligence hunter in the whole town.

   "Have you not gone to the old sewer yet?"

   "Leave later."

The    newspaper was published, which also witnessed the conclusion of the trade, and Lu Li was about to leave.

   "The land dweller firms are also our ostensible allies. If we stop publishing them, they will not refuse..." The Swamp Mother suggested.

   "Not for now."

  The itinerary in the newspaper has not yet been confirmed. At this time, contacting the local people's business will make them realize that the itinerary is true whether they admit or deny it. The local people's business will definitely sell this as information to interested existences.

  Before the itinerary is not confirmed, it is best to keep it half-truth.

  The Swamp Mother changed the subject and talked about Lu Li's next destination: "Ghost Town is strong enough. If you can make it an ally, it will no longer be difficult for our power to spread across the wasteland."

With the    eldest sister there, it won't be too much trouble to make Goblin Town an ally, and at least a trade relationship can be achieved.

   "Also, do you agree with me in your name to invite plant habitats to move to the Land of Light?" asked the Swamp Mother again.

  Lili recalled the plant habitat that guarded the ancestors' spirits: "They will not leave the Serene Forest."

   "I know, but some treants can be invited to the Land of Light. Merchant Anthony said the treants are weaker than the banyan tree, but they fill the entire forest."

"Can."

The addition of    Treants should alleviate the overstretched protective power of the Bright Lands, and the Treants will grow better in the sun.

  The businessman left, Lu Li put his arm on the bedside table back to his armpit, put on a cloak and opened the door.

   The wooden door on the opposite side opened at the same time, and with a lewd breath, the three-handed girl with fine sweat on her forehead appeared in the corridor.

   Just after finishing a transaction, she tempted Lu Li, but was ignored by the latter, and stepped on the stone steps back to the downstairs hall.

   A stunned gaze stared at Lu Li at this time.

   The black eyes under the shadow of the cloak swept across the tavern, but could not find the source of sight, Lu Li opened the door and walked to the street.

  Cherishers in Meishan Town, whom I hadn’t seen yesterday, were passing by frequently on the streets. They were pushing carts made by the Land of Light, which transported piles of coal spilled with cinders to the open-air warehouse.

   They didn't know that the lord of the Land of Light passed them by.

   Poverty makes Meishan Town surprisingly efficient.

   Lu Li, who was heading for the old sewer channel, suddenly walked into the alley beside the old sewer channel. Soon, a figure suddenly broke into the alley and stopped at the entrance.

   The sight that the tavern perceives is not an illusion.

   The intelligence businessman with Lu Li was not surprised that he was discovered. He suppressed his excitement: "Are you from the Land of Light?"

   "Why follow me."

"I'm an intelligence businessman, there is nothing I don't know in the West of the Badlands! You can ask me anything you want to know, and I can help you find what you want, and..." The intelligence businessman who got the default couldn't wait to reveal Hole cards, just for—

   "You want to join the Land of Light?" Lu Li interrupted the chatter of the intelligence businessman.

   "Join the Land of Light? No... I hope you'll allow me to work for the Land of Light!"

   A place of light that is too beautiful to be false is not very attractive, except that newsboys who sell newspapers meet high-paying customers.

   After thinking for a moment, Lu Li gave him a businessman's eyeball.

   "You have only one chance to use it to prove your worth, or to buy eyeballs from a merchant."

  Eyes sell for ten contribution points, which is a weird currency. If the intelligence businessman is willing to pay, he can get a few more chances.

   Leaving the ecstatic intelligence businessman behind, he left Lu Li in the alley and entered the old sewer.
