Global Lord: Start As A Desert Lord

The wedding of Sam and Shanna is definitely the most lively carnival since the establishment of Twilight City.

Everyone was in high spirits, with smiles on their faces.

After the grand dinner, there will be a bonfire party with singing and dancing.

Richard didn't revel with the residents, most of them couldn't let go when he was there.

Going back to the lord's mansion alone, listening to the lively sounds from outside, I feel quite comfortable.

Watching my territory prosper a little bit and grow slowly, until now, everyone loves and agrees with it.

That feeling is hard for outsiders to understand.

Full of sense of accomplishment.

After withdrawing his thoughts, he looked at the system prompt.

With the blessing of this wedding, the long-stalled leadership skill has finally been upgraded to Advanced.

Leadership: Special skills, Advanced, 1. Has a very strong personality charm, which greatly increases the attraction to the opposite sex; 2. Can easily persuade and influence subordinates, so that subordinates have fanatical trust in you; 3. Have a greater chance of making you Heroes whose level is lower than yours and heroes whose potential is lower than yours take the initiative to seek refuge.

Compared with Intermediate leadership, several key attributes of Advanced leadership—personal charisma, subordinate trust, attracting field troops and heroes to seek refuge—have all been improved.

Although no specific data has been quantified, it is definitely not bad.

The only pity is...the fucking desert here.

"If it is placed in a rich place outside, I am afraid that a large number of refugees will seek refuge every day sitting in the territory, and you will see heroes every now and then."

In a ghostly place like the desert, where you can't even see a single person, even if it's so attractive, what's the use?

Make bricks without straw.

No matter how attractive it is, show it to the air?

Richard could only shake his head at that.

Continue to look for another prompt.

After the popularity increased to 95 points, the accompanying attributes also increased significantly.

Brilliant City: When the people's hearts reach 95 points, they will be activated and get a special skill - united as one. Once the Twilight City is in danger, all attributes of the residents and troops guarding the Twilight City will increase by 20%.

Additional features——1. Residents live and work in peace and contentment in the territory, live happily, and worship you very much. All the policies you formulate will be 100% implemented by everyone, and will publicize your greatness to new residents, and will not encounter special circumstances. Popularity will no longer fall.

2. Residents will not be instigated by the enemy, and will guard the territory to the death. If suspicious outsiders sneak into the territory, they will report to you as soon as possible.

3. The attraction of Twilight City to refugees is increased by 100%. After arriving in Twilight City, they can integrate into the city faster, have a higher probability of attracting Advanced talents or Advanced heroes to actively seek refuge, and the charm of the city has been greatly improved.

After seeing its properties, Richard felt better.

The City of Brilliance is in line with his positioning of the City of Twilight.

The new attributes not only get a Passive Skill - unite as one, when encountering enemy siege, everyone's attributes will be improved.

The rest of the features have also been improved.

The most important thing to him is that if there are no special circumstances, the popularity of the people will not decline.

This means that Twilight City can develop freely.

Whether it is expanding the number of residents or formulating policies, there is no need to worry about the poor response of residents and the decline of popular support as before.

Picking up the teacup, he took a sip.

It is not in vain that he has invested so much in people's livelihood, and the rewards are so sweet now.

The only pity is that the higher the popularity, the more difficult it is to rise. I don't know if there is still a chance, what it looks like to see 100 points.

On the third day after the wedding, the newlywed Sam gave up the honeymoon vacation specially approved by Richard, returned to the blacksmith shop, and started the research on the attack technology of the stone statue of the dead.

What I have to mention is that Richard originally wanted to try whether he could upgrade the technology of the Sandstorm Controller...but he had to give up in the end.

Because of the caster arms, it must be researched in the Mage Tower.

The Twilight City has not yet built the Mage Tower.

He does have blueprints in his hand, but there are no such arrangements for the time being.

Once the Mage tower is opened, this thing is definitely a big money-swallower, it is a bit difficult to deal with.

Take it slow first, wait until several industries have developed and have enough confidence in your hands.

"Ding~Primary attack on the stone statue of the dead, estimated development time: 30 days, estimated resources required: 10,000 units of crystals, 10,000 units of gems, 10,000 units of sulfur, success rate: 80%."

The stone statue of the dead is indeed terrifying, and the Rare resources needed to study the Primary attack have reached 30,000 units.

When I was researching units such as the Scorpion Warrior, it only needed tens of thousands of units of Common resources.

There is a huge difference between the two.

When it comes to Advanced, Special Grade, or even Great Sage, it is only a few hundred thousand to get the bottom line.

Richard can only feel pain and joy about this, who made the stone statue of the dead so strong.

With Scorpion Warrior's Great Sage technology first, he has high expectations for the Stone of the Dead technology.

There is no need to achieve Great Sage technology, as long as there is special technology, the combat effectiveness of the stone statue of the dead can definitely be raised to a higher level.

Moreover, after the stone statue of the dead is strengthened by the spiritual gem, the initial level of recruitment from the troop lair has been raised to level 10.

It is the same as the crown 1-star bone blood dragon.

This makes it a matter of course to win the title of the strongest unit in Twilight City.

A well-deserved trump card.

The 30,000 resources, without blinking, Richard piled them up directly in the blacksmith's warehouse.

Before Sam's big wedding, at the end of October, he went to the underground world.

At that time, in addition to appeasing the dungeon forces who were disturbed by sharing forging skills, they also bought all the weapons and equipment that Bloodhoof City exchanged from other forces.

The forged weapons this time are all new weapons, not the tattered ones from the previous few times.

So the price has been greatly improved.

Interestingly, Richard's large-scale sale this time caused a sensation among players.

With an affordable price that is 10% lower than the average selling price, these weapons were sold out in an instant.

Although it is easy to sell, Richard also found that the quality of weapons on the trading market has gradually improved.

At least the tattered weapon he used to cut the leeks of players a few months ago has completely lost the market now.

This also made him vigilant, and strengthened his idea of ​​promoting the sharing of forging technology in the underground world and improving the overall forging level.

And once again urged Furnace City to increase research and development in this area.

If the alchemy technology can meet his requirements - like Blue Star's mechanically driven steel plant, it can produce weapons and equipment on a large scale and in a standardized manner.

Then Twilight City will definitely occupy a place in the arms trading market.

The special circumstances of the underground world can also minimize production costs.

Other players may have higher levels of forging skills, but they definitely don't have the advantage of Twilight City-not everyone can rule an underground world.

In this transaction, Richard did not treat Bloodhoof City badly, and took out half of the resources sold as the purchase price. If you want a horse to run fast, it must be fed with good fodder.

Bloodhoof City saved him a lot of worry, and it was worth cultivating.

This made Ser Bloodhoof grin from ear to ear.

Although 70% of it is the purchase price, he can only earn 30% of it, but this is earned by simply being a middleman, and there is no need for Bloodhoof City to pay anything, it is lying down to make money.

And Richard earned a full 100 million units of Common resources from this transaction.

This also enriched his empty resource panel.

During this period of time, this is not the only income in Twilight City.

At the beginning of November, 5,000 units of White Tail Wine produced in October were sent to Solan City.

This transaction brought back 300,000 units of Rare resources.

Excluding the production cost of 50,000 units, the net profit is 250,000 units.

This time, he also sent 500 units of super-grade desert crown honey to the Luanwei Flower Chamber of Commerce.

After the desert crown honey is upgraded to super grade, it can produce 140 units per week, and 560 units per month. Except for a certain amount of retention, the others are sold.

The price of super honey is very impressive, 1000 Rare resources per unit.

This transaction directly allowed him to earn 500,000 units of Rare resources.

Add up to a net income of 750,000 units of Rare resources this month.

The Flaming Dragon Rabbit was originally considered a big resource earner, but because of the deal with Rebecca, the rabbit fur produced was sent to the Frostwolf Clan's shop in Solan City along with Whitetail Absolute Brew.

But Rao is so.

After this transaction, the resources in Richard's hands have also reached an unprecedented level of abundance.

But the speed of earning resources is fast, and the speed of spending resources is faster.

From the end of October to November 17, the troop lair has been refreshed four times in total.

A total of 440 stone statues of the dead were produced, each costing 300 gems and 300 crystals, consuming a total of 264,000 Rare resources.

And another top-level unit, the Sandstorm Controller, originally had 10 unit nests, but only 50 units can be produced every week.

But Richard felt the number was low.

Nearly 40 million units of resources were spent to purchase and upgrade the lairs of Kuangsha Mage and Sandstorm Mage, and recombine 10 rare-level Sandstorm Controllers.

In this way, the number of troop lairs of the Sandstorm Controller reaches 20.

Weekly production has increased to 100.

But in this way, the 20 sandstorm master lairs were refreshed four times, and the number reached 400.

In addition, when 10 arms are recruited for the first time, they can recruit an additional week's production-50, and the total is 400.

Each consumes 200 units of sulfur, a total of 90,000 units.

He spent 354,000 units of Rare resources just to recruit these two units.

The Rare resource just acquired has 400,000 units left.

It seems like a lot, but there are too many things to do in Twilight City.

Not to mention other things, activating the blood in the blood gnome will consume 1 million Rare resources.

There is a big gap here.

This is still based on the fact that he does not intend to continue to upgrade the troop lair for the time being.

If the sandstorm controller is promoted to the glorious level again, the Rare resources required for recruitment will definitely increase again.

However, the resources in his hands are not enough to upgrade 20 sandstorm controllers, so Richard can only hold off on his actions.

After a month of violent soldiers, the number of troops in Twilight City has reached a new height.

Rare arms——

1. Bandage mummies (3 lairs, 21 per week) current quantity: 336

2. Scorpion Warrior (20 lairs, 140 per week) current quantity: 554

3. Mummy Guardians (3 lairs, 30 per week) current quantity: 720

4. Ningsha Archer (10 lairs, 50 per week) current quantity: 1000

5. Cursed Pharaoh (1 lair, 5 weekly output) current quantity: 105

6. Giant ax death knight (5 lairs, 25 weekly output) current quantity: 466

7. Sandstorm Master Mage (20 lairs, 100 per week) current quantity: 500

Brilliant Arms

8. Stone statues of the dead (11 lairs, 100 per week) current quantity: 1050

Troops without troop lairs

Rare——Ax of the Dead 515, Kuangsha Mage420

Splendor - Dark Gargoyle 240, Deadman's Ax 70, Heavy Sword Warrior 20.

Crown Arms - Skeleton Blood Dragon 160

Among them, the sandstorm controllers and the stone statues of the dead that he valued the most are very impressive in number.

Especially the sandstorm controllers, after the number of 500 turned into sandstorms, they have formed a strong combat effectiveness.

He tried it once, and the fighting power increased by more than ten times compared with 100 people.

The huge number of troops made the relatively spacious Twilight City seriously crowded, and it could no longer accommodate it.

As a last resort, Richard drew a large area where the west side intersects with the sandstorm as a parking area for troops.

They are all undead units, and the harsh environment of the desert has no effect on them, and even because of their talents, they can be strengthened in the desert.

This solved the trouble of happiness.

The pointer of time came to November 20th.

In the food workshop, in front of a huge warehouse, Richard looked at the packed black ice cream with great interest.

"Karu, how many black sorbets have we produced in total this month?"

The gray-haired, aging Karoo was very energetic at the moment, and said excitedly.

"My lord, the current inventory of Hei Ning Sorbet has reached 2.6 million units."

The two super food workshops are producing non-stop around the clock, plus the 5 squadrons in the underground world are looking for raw materials, the output is not much.

If it wasn't for the rush of time and the lack of supply of some raw materials, this figure could double.

Richard nodded, reached out his hand and took out a piece of black ice cream wrapped like a rice dumpling from a box made of special plants.

Watching his movements, Karu introduced.

"The Hei Ning sorbet is a common broad-leaved plant in the underground world. It has high toughness and is difficult to tear."

"And it can keep for several months without decay, and it can produce a special fragrance after being stored for a long time. Dungeon life often uses this plant to store food."

In order to package Hei Ning ice cream, the food workshop has put a lot of effort into research.

Richard tore open along the obvious opening with great interest.

A jelly-like black sorbet appeared in front of my eyes.

Take off the plant spoon attached to the package and dig a spoonful.

Put it in your mouth.

The familiar icy feeling instantly filled the whole body, and the whole person immediately became energetic.

Come here on a hot day...comfortable.

Although there is no very good attribute bonus, but just because it can cool off the heat, Hei Ning Sorbet is lore in the desert.

Karu seemed to think of something, hesitatingly said.

"My lord, is the price of 20 units of Common resources of Hei Ning Sorbet too low?"

Although Age of Glory is a world with Extraordinary power, things like magic plants and magic potions are very expensive.

There are magic plants added to Hei Ning Sorbet, which can dispel heat, but Common people can't afford it at all, and they won't consume it.

20 units of Common resources can enjoy the taste of magic, which is unbelievable in the eyes of the aborigines.

Hearing this, Richard suddenly thought of a familiar product... Coke.

Coke, which always sells for only a few dollars, is one of Blue Star's most profitable businesses.

Hundreds of billions of bottles are casually sold each year.

If Hei Ning Sorbet could achieve this level, then he would just lie down on the golden mountain and sleep.

"The production cost of Hei Ning Sorbet is not high, and it can be standardized and mass-produced."

"Judging from the current situation, it is more suitable to take the Common route, and the sinking market is in line with the positioning of this product as a daily consumer product..."

"There are already similar products in the high-end market. If there are any good attributes, there is no need to compete with high-end products."

"And it's not that if the price is low, you can't make money. In fact, on the contrary, as long as it is attractive to buyers, a low price means that the frequency of repurchase will increase."

"Although expensive things are more profitable, the number of people who consume them will decrease accordingly."

"As long as you grasp the profit point, the benefits you can earn at a low price may be ten times or a hundred times more than that at a high price."

As for how to grasp the profit point, Wei Er, who controls the Purple Roland Chamber of Commerce, has already given the answer.

Karu suddenly realized, and then said a little ashamed.

"My lord, I'm ignorant...I never thought you would have such profound insights in business."

Is this an opinion? This is just common sense...Looking at this aborigine who had no compulsory education, Richard could only pat him on the shoulder to express his comfort.

"Send all the black sorbet to Solan City, and let Weier start our plan."

"The Purple Roland Chamber of Commerce needs a blockbuster product to open up the market."

Karoo immediately perked up.

Selling the products of Twilight City to Solan City was a scene that he couldn't have imagined when he came to this dilapidated territory a few months ago.

It feels like a dream right now.

In just six months, everything has changed.

The current Twilight City is no longer the previous Twilight City.

After recovering, looking at the piled up Hei Ning ice cream, I was excited and distressed.

"My lord, are we going to use sandworms?"

"Of course, let Furnace City pull out the mechanical boat. This time, let Sandworm pull the mechanical boat."

2.6 million units, if it is transported by flying arms, it will take time to go back and forth, so you can't do it for ten days and a half months.

Did you not work during this time?

The sandworms have grown to 60 meters, and 10 sandworms can transport these black ice creams to Solan City in one trip.

Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a short period of time, he invested so much in this area in the early stage, isn't it just for this moment.
