Vegetable Skeleton's Exotic Land Reclamation

"The front is the main area of ​​our activities, I'll go and have a look first." Roger said, pointing to a cave in front.

The area of ​​Darkside City is very large. This red clay area with a diameter of more than 100 kilometers belongs to the scope of Darkside City, and the caves extend in all directions and are intricate.

However, there are only more than 18,000 people in the entire city, and more than 3,000 of them are undead creatures, which have been taken away by Rogge. Most of the remaining people in the city are living people.

Since it is a living person, it needs economic activities, planting, production, excavation, and trading.

Economic activities need to be gathered, so there will be residential areas or markets. Once the situation outside is safe, people of all colors in Dark Side City will quickly gather to exchange or buy what they need for life.

There are several specialties in the laterite caves, the most common one is refined iron sand, which is a metal similar to iron, which spreads all over the entire laterite area in a simple form. As long as you plan and sieve carefully, you can sieve a little. After saving enough, take To exchange food.

This is the main source of income for the residents of Darkside City.

Adding fine iron sand to iron ore can improve the hardness and ductility of iron products. It is very miraculous, because hardness and ductility are two opposite properties. The higher the hardness, the lower the ductility, but it can improve both. item.

This makes the price of refined iron ore very expensive, and it can even be exchanged for gold coins of the same volume. Food is more expensive than gold.

In addition to refined iron sand, there is also a kind of mud mushroom, which is a kind of mushroom buried in the soil. It can often grow to the height of half a person's thigh and thick. No mud mushrooms.

Such a mud mushroom, paired with white mud in the same proportion, and made into a mud mushroom cake can satisfy hunger, and it also avoids the problem of abdominal swelling caused by eating white mud alone, so as not to eat dead people.

A small amount of food is grown, but it is mainly imported. The area of ​​Darkside City is very large, and the caves extend in all directions. It is impossible for a silver knight to block all places. As long as there is a heart, there is always a way to bring food in.

As long as the price of food is high to a certain level, even if it is transported with a space magic weapon, it will be profitable.

Of course, apart from smuggling with space artifacts, caravans carry more volume, and all of these caravans are flying the 'invisible' flag, even if Marcus drives an airship, he has to pretend he can't see it from the sky banner.

The Silver Knights also need to eat. Refined iron ore is so expensive outside. They buy a few bags of grain here and sell it for a pound of magic crystals. The grain is still distributed by the Holy See. Wanli,

With Rogge opening the way ahead, Ange and his party came to a bustling cave group unimpeded. The sky cannot be seen here, but the sunlight can be refracted in, providing a good light here.

Near the rock wall, many people put their goods on the ground for others to buy. The place surrounded by the most people was a carriage, with big-waisted guards standing on both sides of the carriage. A businessman shouted loudly on the carriage. : "Three catties of grain for one catty of refined iron ore, three for one, three for one, some come quickly."

Some of the residents surrounding the carriage lamented loudly, and some cursed loudly: "You profiteer, yesterday it was 5 for 1, why is it 3 for 1 today? You are raising prices indiscriminately, are you trying to starve us to death!?"

The businessman on the carriage also lamented sadly: "It's not what I thought. The camp of the Silver Knights was bombed by our own people the day before yesterday. They are now in a mess. I don't know what will happen in the future. In two days, maybe there will be more people." If you want to change quickly, if you can’t bear it, just wait.”

Negris and Rogge were stunned for a moment, and looked at each other. Why did they blow up the camp of the Silver Knights and cause the food prices in Darkside City to increase?

"This profiteer, I will kill him. I have clearly ordered that the price of grain in Darkside City is not allowed to drive up the price. The Silver Knights were bombed the day before yesterday. He raised the price today. Even if the purchase price will increase, the retail price will not be reflected so quickly. Come on." Rogge was so angry that he drew his knife and was about to walk over.

Negris hurriedly stopped him: "No need, no need, this businessman is a good man, and under such circumstances, he is at least willing to sell the grain outside. The real profiteer probably has already stopped selling the grain, waiting for the price to rise. "

Rogge frowned and looked around, and said angrily: "Sure enough, there are three that often sell grain, and now the other two are gone. I just asked, and they were still there yesterday."

"Hey, the situation in your dark side city is too miserable. Many people don't even have overnight food. They buy and eat now. The other two don't sell food. If this one doesn't sell food, someone will starve to death." Naig Reese sighed.

Rogge frowned and said, "So, the ones who sell grain at a high price are actually good people?"

"Maybe maybe, you go find him and ask him." Negris said.

From the moment they came to this area, everyone's gazes drifted over vaguely, after all, the appearance of their group was particularly eye-catching.

A white and bright broken-horned beast, a brass young dragon, and a pink little angel, if Rogge hadn't led them, the people in the market would have been scared away long ago.

Everyone watched from a distance, but did not dare to approach, because Rogge has never been a person who is close to the people.

The businessman standing on the grain cart naturally saw it too. When he saw Rogge waving at him, he immediately put on a bitter face. He was afraid, but he dared not refuse. He climbed down from the grain cart and trotted all the way over. explanation of:

"My lord, please forgive me. I didn't mean to raise the price, but I had to. I'm a small business, and the turnover is difficult. If I don't go with the market, it's very likely that the funds will be broken next time I buy. Forgive me." The merchant apologized in multiple voices.

"Don't be nervous, I just called you here to ask about the situation, not to blame you." Negris quickly comforted:

"The main thing I want to ask is that the camp of the Silver Knights was bombed. In the next period of time, the food supply will definitely be tight. Why don't you keep the food and wait until the price of food is higher in a few days before you sell it?"

The businessman was surprised by Negris' inquiry, and he first glanced at Rogge cautiously.

Rogge's eyes lit up with a dangerous red light, and he said sternly: "Answer well, answer truthfully, this is the wisest and most knowledgeable Lord Brass Dragon, he can easily see through your lies."

Negris smiled slightly, but secretly accepted the compliment: Look, someone still remembers the most knowledgeable brass dragon.

As the Black Warrior Emperor, Rogge is very unusual in the eyes of ordinary people. Even he is said to be the wisest dragon. Naturally, the businessman dare not lie, and said with a bitter face: "I think so too... .”

Roger's hand clenched, and he almost couldn't help pulling out his knife.

"But when I came here to see, other people thought the same way. There was no grain merchant open today, so I quickly dragged the grain truck out. Many people have no surplus grain at home. If they don't sell it today, they may not even have customers in two days. They are all 'gone'. Lord City Master, it was better when the ancestors were here, but now that you have brought them all to be treated, some people have no scruples." At the end of the businessman, he didn't Forgot to put eye drops on his colleagues.

The ancestors refer to those undead creatures, because there are many liches who are the ancestors of these living people.

In the dark side city in the past, the people who managed the order were liches. Now almost all the undead creatures have been taken away. The dark side city is actually in an unorganized state and is operating according to inertia. Gradually, some unruly things are getting worse. more and more.

The reason why it is still operating according to inertia, rather than immediately chaotic, is because Rogge and other undead creatures are going to heal, not die. Everyone expects them to come back, so those who are interested will temporarily hold back.

Luo Ge snapped out his knife and said angrily, "I'll go and chop those two merchants."

Negris pulled him back angrily: "Is that how you manage the city? Killing people every now and then? Filin's level is much better than yours."

"Fillin? Lisa's husband?" Roger said in awe.

What kind of person is Lisa? During this period of time, Rogge has seen it. He can marry such a woman as his wife and have been married for more than a thousand years without being purified. Film's ability is absolutely impeccable.

"Filin's situation is much worse than yours. At least there is still food in the dark side city. Lich city is much worse than yours. He almost wants to launch the undead natural disaster. Let's just die together." Nai Gris sighed.

"All the problems are actually the problem of food. After solving this problem, a place as big as Darkside City can actually live a very nourishing life. Well, having said so much, then you know the last food problem in Lich City. Who solved it?" Negris smiled slightly.

Ange poked into the Palace of Rest with one hand, and kept stirring. He was not interested in what Negris said at all, and he couldn't understand it. The only thing he understood was the "food issue", which he was best at.

Someone poked him, looked down, and saw that the little angel was poking his arm, seeing him looking over, quickly pointed not far away, and gave him an 'ow'.

Where the little angel pointed, there was a seven or eight-year-old, thin child, holding a roll of things, staring at it with big eyes, looking timidly and expectantly.

Ange tilted his head in confusion.

The little angel groaned again, and then made a movement of gnawing something, 'gnawing' until his cheeks swelled up, and looked at Ange.

Ange understood and dug out a piece of beet.

The little angel took the beet, ran over slowly, handed it to the child, and snatched the thing from the child's arms.

The child's eyes started to shine when he saw the beet, but when the little angel snatched his things, he was in a hurry. He threw himself on the beet and hugged his own things, refusing to let go.

"Ow!" cried the little angel.

"Ah! Ahhh! Yiya!" The child yelled back without showing weakness, but no one knew what he was yelling.

"Oh!" The little angel clenched his fist and stared at the child's eye socket, but he hesitated for a while, and it didn't punch out.

If it was just born, it might not care about it, but it has 'lived' for so long, it is very clear that the creature in front of it can't hold its punch, and even if it fights too hard, it may hurt the opponent. Greg will beat it.

After arguing for a while, it gave up and returned to Ange dejectedly: "Oh~"

Ange patted its head, walked towards the child, and dug out a bag of food.

The child carefully poked the grain bag, hesitated for a moment, a little confused, but still shook his head, and carefully put the beet that he had snatched onto the grain bag.

An Ge turned over another bag of grain.

The child hesitated again, and immediately, there was another bag of grain under his feet.

The child didn't hesitate anymore, he stuffed the roll in his arms to the little angel, stuffed the beets into his arms, and dragged one of the bags of food out with all his might, but he didn't want the other two bags.

It is very difficult for a seven or eight-year-old child who is obviously malnourished to carry a 20-jin bag of grain, so he has to drag it along in a hurry.

An Ge tilted his head, looking at the other two bags of food under his feet in wonder: Don't you want it?

Negris was bragging to Anger there, when he turned his head and saw that the Lord had disappeared, and he flew over to see this scene, which made him couldn't help but sigh: "Take the food and follow, or you will kill people." died."

killed? Why?

Ange was a little puzzled, but soon he knew why. He caught up with the child not far away, and heard a fierce voice from the cave ahead:

"You dumb, what did the lord give you? Wow! Grain, white and high-grade fine grain? So much grain, do you plan to eat it yourself? Don't you know how to honor your brother?"

Then there was a muffled sound of hitting the flesh, and the child's thin body was kicked out of the hole, vomiting blood and rolling in front of Ange and the others.

Ange now understood why he was killed.

"There is a shortage of food here. If you give a child a whole bag of food in public, it's no wonder that others don't grab his food." Negris said.

The child vomited blood, looked at Ange with complicated eyes, then looked at the little angel, and finally fell on the other two bags of food carried by Ange unwillingly, and his breath gradually weakened.

Ange squatted down, and the cleansing technique penetrated into his body, one, two, three, every time, his body shook violently, he vomited blood at the mouth, vomited, he sat up suddenly, his eyes widened in disbelief .

"Ho, ho, I—" hoarse, the child seemed to have never spoken in his entire life, and he uttered vigorously. When he made the sound "I", he was stunned.

"I——can—talk—." With difficulty, the whole sentence was spoken, and the child couldn't stop crying.

"Were you unable to speak before? He called you dumb? Is it because you have been unable to speak since you were a child?" Negris asked, did Ange heal his throat by the way?

"Five-five-year-old." The child responded with difficulty. Although it was difficult to speak, his expression was very excited, and he was trying very hard.

"You can't talk until you're five years old? Are you injured? How old are you now?" Negris asked speculatively, and couldn't help but thank Ange in his heart. If Ange hadn't made him get used to this way of conversation, he might not be able to talk to this person now. The child communicates.

The child nodded and said, "Ten—"

Ten years old? It's not like, it looks seven or eight years old, is it because of malnutrition and stunted growth?

Rogge had already caught the food grabber and was dragging him over. He was a strong young man in his twenties. He was slipped away by Rogge, his feet were so weak that he couldn't stand, and he didn't kick him at all. The fierceness of childhood.

"Forget it, let's deal with this first, Rogge, what crime should be punished for robbing and causing serious injury and death?" Negris asked.
