The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

"Stone Castle?"

Wei Yihong smiled and said: "Yes, those three towns have been officially merged, and relying on the collected resources, a huge fortress has been successfully built.

However, there is currently a large resource gap in building the city wall, and the prices of wood, stone, iron ingots and other resources in the castle remain high. "

"Okay, how many gold coins will you bring back this time?"

Aiboka smiled slightly, knowing that it was time for him to show off. He respectfully handed Xu Lai a box the size of a music box and said:

"Boss, all the gold coins obtained from this transaction are in here."

Xu Lai was stunned. The box in front of him could completely cover the bottom with two hands. The height was only about ten centimeters. Even if it was filled with gold coins, how much could it contain?

Seeing the confident smile on Big Aiboka's face, Xu Lai knew that things were definitely not that simple.

If this guy really exchanged Xu Lai's more than 30 pieces of antique calligraphy and painting for this small box of gold coins, Xu Lai would destroy him if not kill him. How could he still laugh?

Sure enough, as soon as Xu Lai opened the box, the golden light almost blinded Xu Lai's eyes.

Xu Lai took out handful after handful, but there was no shortage of gold coins in the box.

Aiboka on the side explained: "Boss, the box in your hand is called "Vikli's Gold Coin Box". It is an alchemical item invented by a great mage named Vicki hundreds of years ago.

This is a magic prop, but it is not a one-time use. Depending on the level, it can store ten thousand, one hundred thousand, one million or even unlimited gold coins.

The item you have in your hand is a box of one hundred thousand gold coins, worth one thousand two hundred gold coins, which I exchanged with a merchant.

And there are about 15,000 gold coins stored in it.

On average, each of those antiques, calligraphy and paintings is sold for about 500 to 600 gold. "

Hearing that fifteen thousand gold was hidden in this box, Xu Lai immediately breathed a sigh of relief. This money solved his urgent need.

He had promised Bai Yang before that he would first train her forest demons and flower demons.

Moreover, after seeing a medical clinic worth 300 gold coins, 30 units of wood, and 30 units of stone today, Xu Lai felt that the blacksmith shop, grocery store, and tavern also had their own special value and should be built as soon as possible.

With this money, Xu Lai can implement many of the things he wants to do.

"Old Wei, you have worked hard on this trip. I promised you before that I would give you a commission.

Well, Lao Wei, please calculate how much you should divide for this trip.

When we distribute dividends for the first time, there will be no distinction between priority and credit, and all commissions will be shared equally by everyone. "

As soon as Xu Lai finished speaking, Urdola came out of the queue and said: "Boss, you have cured my leg injury this time. I am already grateful. I can't count on my share of the commission this time." .”

After Urdola finished speaking, Big Abokar followed suit: "Boss, I heard Director Wei say that the commission conditions you gave are based on the actual value of the item and the selling price that we can increase based on our ability.

To be honest, I didn’t even sell these antique calligraphy and paintings for the price they deserved, and I really had no shame in participating in the dividends. "

Wei Yihong scratched his head and said with an embarrassed look: "Well, it seems that my errand is not done well either.

Previously, High Priest Ryan promised to give us ten households, but the news spread somehow during the recruitment process.

As a result, not only the original ten families, but also an entire village wanted to move to our Qingfeng Town, and High Priest Ryan has agreed to them. "

"A village, are you talking about an entire village?" Xu Lai was surprised. He had just managed to get everyone settled here, but he couldn't bear the arrival of an entire village.

Wei Yihong nodded and said: "Yes, and I heard from High Priest Ryan that that village has a relatively close relationship with you.

High Priest Ryan only agreed to move them because of your face. Otherwise, he would not have allowed the entire village to move to the rear when the labor force is most scarce. "

As soon as he heard that it was related to Xu Lai, Xu Lai immediately knew which village this village was. It must be Gram Village, and Xu Lai had dealt with people in this village.

Lachi, the head of Gram Village, also provided help to Xu Lai. Now that they have come to his door, Xu Lai can't help but turn them away.

"Then when will they arrive?"

Wei Yihong said: "Miss Elena is preparing, and the temple has promised to send two trainee knights to escort us, but Village Chief Lacy and others also have to pack supplies.

So I made an agreement with Lachi Village and Miss Elena that the next time we go to Stone Castle, they will come with us to increase safety. "

At this time Urdora also said: "The orcs will not sit back and watch the temple build the walls of the fortress. The stronghold lacks long-range power, and the one-eyed people who are good at throwing boulders have difficulty crossing the Pingfeng Mountains for a while.

Therefore, I estimate that the war between humans and orcs will start soon. "

Wei Yihong continued: "Village Chief Lachi and others also said that more and more troops have been gathered recently, and ordinary people like them are becoming more and more dangerous.

Almost all the villages and towns that had been withdrawn from the front wanted to hide in the rear. Unfortunately, neither the temple nor Count Ani refused to let go. They were determined to use them as cannon fodder. "

Xu Lai fell into silence for a moment, not knowing what to say.

At this time, Big Aiboka said again: "Boss, if you still want to sell those antique calligraphy and paintings, I suggest that we organize a second transportation as soon as possible.

First of all, we can bring the people from Gram Village here as soon as possible, so as not to prevent everyone from being immobilized due to the war.

Secondly, the caravans also smelled the scent. When we came back, we saw that many caravans were already packing their things. If we had gone later, there would probably not be many caravans left there. "

Urdora on the side snorted and said: "Once the war breaks out, what those stupid nobles like to do most is to recruit the business groups in the city and use the mercenary groups as cannon fodder."

Obviously Urdola had suffered a loss in this matter, and her tone was not polite at all.

Xu Lai sighed, thought for a moment and then said: "Then you have to work harder. Anyway, the goods this time have been packed in the warehouse. You can pick them up and set off at any time.

Let's have a good rest tonight. It just so happens that you also brought back this four-wheeled medium-sized supply vehicle. This time you can put the weapons and equipment in it together.

In addition, you can't bring too many stones this time. I will bring out another hundred units of iron ingots, plus a hundred units of rare resources, and you can exchange them for gold coins for me as much as possible. "

Once the war broke out, the trade to the west had to be stopped. Jian Yuan had already gone east, but he set out from the no-man's land to the east, and he didn't know how far he would go to encounter a human town.

Therefore, it is possible that this transaction will be the last transaction. Xu Lai even used some of the rare resources he had reserved in order to exchange for as many gold coins as possible.

No matter how precious the rare resources are, Xu Lai won't be able to use them for a while. On the contrary, without a stable source of gold coins, the advancement of Xu Lai's soldiers will be a problem.

Wei Yihong nodded and said: "No problem, we will set off early tomorrow morning and try to get back with more gold coins this time."

Big Aboka smiled bitterly and said: "It's a pity that these antique calligraphy and paintings can be exchanged for real prices here. The price of antique calligraphy and paintings has been suppressed by an unknown amount when they appear on such an occasion.

If we can transport it to a wealthy city in the south or an imperial capital, I am sure that the value of this shipment will increase tenfold. "

Xu Lai also sighed and said: "There is nothing we can do about it, but these are extraordinary times, and prices cannot be calculated based on past conventional experience.

You still have to get your share. If you two don’t take it, Lao Wei will be too embarrassed to take it alone.

You have tried your best this time but failed to get the rewards you deserve. When the next transaction comes, who of you will still try your best? "

Urdola wanted to speak again, Xu Lai waved his hand and said:

"I'm not trying to be fat, I'm not rich now either.

Well, Laowu, now that your leg has been cured, you have to shoulder the corresponding responsibilities. Tahan is my captain of the personal guard, and I can't keep doing business with you.

Laowu, you will be the captain of the caravan for the time being. Later, you will go to the warehouse to pick out a good set of equipment and a good horse. The money will be deducted from your dividends. Do you think that's okay? "

Urdola knelt down on the ground again with excitement and said: "Uldola, thank you, Your Excellency."

Xu Laixu helped him and then said to Big Aiboka: "Lao Ai, you have experience. From now on, the caravan will gradually be handed over to you to take charge of. Now, let's help Lao Wei first.

From now on, Lao Wei plans to let him work as a diplomat for me. For the time being, you two will still receive the same treatment.

Tonight I will ask Lao Wei to calculate your share of the dividends, and I will ask him to deliver your share to you personally.

If you have the same ideas about force as Lao Wu, the equipment in the warehouse is also the same, and you will be given priority to choose from. "

Xu Lai's words can be considered sincere, and at least Big Aiboka seemed quite moved.

When Xu Lai finally turned his head to Wei Yihong, Wei Yihong, who had always been sophisticated, felt a little ashamed for the first time and lowered his head and did not dare to look at Xu Lai.

Seeing this, Xu Lai smiled and said: "Old Wei, you heard it just now, let's take care of the commission tonight.

My suggestion is that the commission this time should be divided into at least one thousand gold coins. As for what the standard is, you can draw it up for me tonight.

You can leave the business transactions to Lao Ai first. I also have several important political tasks to hand over to you. "

Wei Yihong was over thirty years old, several years older than Xu Lai. When he heard Xu Lai say this, he actually felt a little bit in his heart that a scholar would die for his confidant.

"Boss, tell me, I don't dare to boast about anything else. I will do my best to do whatever you ask me to do."

Xu Lai smiled and said: "You said I would send you to the battlefield, don't worry, it's not a big deal.

There are mainly two things. One is to maintain the relationship with the temple on my behalf. I guess that Count Aini probably doesn't like me. If he doesn't have the support of the temple, he may turn around and come to deal with me.

Secondly, you said that there are many people in villages and small towns who want to leave Stone Castle.

I need you to help me find connections, open this hole wider, and bring more people to Qingfeng Town.

But please note that the people I want this time have requirements. They must exchange the heart of the castle for this spot, and I will use the name of a hero to promise to protect their safety forever. "
