Harmony Village, Warehouse District.
There was a dim light in the warehouse where the torch was shining, and it was a round of dim portals taking shape. Zhou Qingfeng stood in front of the portal, waiting for the arrival of a batch of trading materials.
In Zhou Qingfeng’s mind, the succubus was chuckling, "My dear, thank you for the Chi Jing, I wish you a good dream tonight. I also look forward to sending you more and better soul crystals next time, you Everything you want will be satisfied."
The laughter was sultry and reverberating.
Zhou Qingfeng closed his eyes slightly, and the red crystals exchanged for one thousand points were turned into tons of grain, as well as a large number of pots and pans, cotton gauze and other daily necessities.
After the idea of using the service industry to attract population was unfolded, Zhou Qingfeng found that he had greatly underestimated the cumbersomeness of this matter. It is not just eating and drinking that can serve the uncles who spend money.
Building a house is simple and can be done as long as the manpower and material resources are sufficient. But it is really annoying to train a group of catering service personnel.
Everything is lacking in the Black Forest, and it is too late to purchase and manufacture locally. Zhou Qingfeng can only bring a small amount of'high-end' metal tools and medicines from the real world. Low-end daily necessities are really difficult to solve. He tentatively sent a purchase request to the succubus Maidès, but the other party actually agreed.
The purchased materials include five tons of grain, six hundred pieces of cloth, and piles of ordinary daily necessities. Zhou Qingfeng has a lot of debts and urgently needs these goods to solve his urgent needs.
Todd, Rubio, Old Borg, Enissa, Naser, Nar, a bunch of people are having headaches for all kinds of new things. Zhou Qingfeng's emergency training class has never stopped, but the ultimate solution to the problem is to spend money.
"The only good news now is that our cargo costs are low and funds are returned quickly." Zhou Qingfeng quietly comforted himself in his heart-after the news of the Elf Ruins came out, the entire Northland was a sensation.
There is no convenient information and media in the alien world, but the popularity of this matter can be known by just going to the tavern in the village that has not been fully built.
In just one month, more than two hundred adventurers ran over from Coldwind City and rushed to the Black Forest to try to explore the elf ruins and make a fortune. Even if they don't know where the ruins are at all, this can't stop them from running around.
Adventurers are rich and poor. The poor would just take a knife and go directly into the forest to fight for their lives. It is generally difficult to get out alive again, and even if they do, there will be no gain. The rich will find ways to form teams, raise manpower and supplies as much as possible, and act collectively.
Whether it is rich or poor, the only place in the Black Forest that can entertain adventurers is Zhou Qingfeng’s Harmonious Village. He has to rely on him to solve the problem of eating, drinking, and sleeping. This has brought a large number of passengers to the village under construction, and it has also brought huge benefits.
A pound of finely ground wheat only needs two copper coins in the south where the grain is produced. But the price in Northland has to be multiplied by ten. If it is to be transported to the remote Black Forest, the price will be even higher.
Zhou Qingfeng relied on the power of the succubus to transfer the food, and the price of each pound of wheat flour was still two copper coins—the devil was born with the ability to cast spells, and the succubus, as a plane merchant, was even more adept at this.
Please send Meades, the price of the goods will not change, it only charges freight. The cost of this transmission is a red crystal, which cost Zhou Qingfeng a thousand points. Saying that it is expensive or not, it is also not cheap. The key is to immediately bring things over to meet the needs of Harmony Village.
As long as he sells the flour, it is enough to make Zhou Qingfeng earn more than ten times the gold coins. He used the cheap food he obtained not only to control the lifeblood of various human settlements in the Black Forest, but also to provide rich food for the adventurers who came here to make a fortune.
This is an incomparable advantage Zhou Qingfeng.
Even if someone understood what Zhou Qingfeng did, there was no way to grab business with him. After all, high-quality soul crystals are too rare and precious in the world of swords and magic. From the point of view of Inisa, Zhou Qingfeng would definitely lose a lot when he exchanged soul crystals for food.
Gray, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black and white, even the second-level red crystal is extremely rare. But Zhou Qingfeng can exchange points for coupons, which gives him a little bit of convenience. After all, you can get points for completing tasks in the real world.
But Zhou Qingfeng is not without trouble. He not only needs food, but also salt, grease, vegetables, paper, candles, and all kinds of daily necessities. These things are not produced in the Black Forest at all and can only rely on foreign transport.
However, the supply of goods is not endless. On the contrary, the grain production in the alien world is very low. All commodities are produced by handicrafts, with poor efficiency and unstable quality.
Zhou Qingfeng bought all the grain that could be mobilized in a certain city south of Faerun at one time. Although the succubus promised that he had other connections in the main material world and could continue to obtain food for him, there was an upper limit on the total amount.
Feed two thousand people at most.
To engage in development, there must be a population. Zhou Qingfeng hopes to develop a harmonious village to counteract the reality. After all, the Black Forest has a harsh environment but rich resources, and is a very good source of raw materials. But the food has blocked all development plans.
Zhou Qingfeng walked out of the warehouse, and said to Rubio who was waiting outside: "The grain is inside, please count and put it in the warehouse."
The old profiteer glanced at the warehouse, beaming with joy. He was overjoyed and said: "Master, you are so amazing. With these methods to get food, there must be no one in the Black Forest to be your opponent."
"The Black Forest is too small and too biased. I just want to continue to grow based on this place. I will definitely go to other places in the future. But now I can only support two thousand people at most. It also includes at least five or six hundred foreign adventurers. "
"In fact, if the per capita ration quota is lowered a bit, we can feed 3,000 people."
"Do you raise three thousand thin wastes?" Zhou Qingfeng blocked Rubio back with a single sentence. "Two thousand is two thousand. Let me make some money first. Later I will find a way to grow the land. I hope this period of time. Don't cause any trouble."
Speaking of trouble, Rubio had to cough and reminded: "Master, Mr. Jason is back."
Jason took Rubio to Coldwind City before and purchased 3,500 gold coins in exchange for demon bones and transported them back to Harmony Village. The former also helped Zhou Qingfeng recruit manpower and promoted the expedition spree, with outstanding results. He can be regarded as a reliable ally of Harmony Village.
"Oh..., how is he??"
"It's terrible. It is said that Jason and his teacher went on an adventure in the forest and many people died. His teacher, His Excellency Fabro, also lived in our village and said he wanted to see you.
"What do you see me for?"
Zhou Qingfeng remembered that Jason had mentioned his teacher Fabro, but there was no good comment between his words. But in the Black Forest, the strength of a seventh-level alchemist cannot be underestimated. Although he is not afraid of the other party, it is impossible to catch everyone and rush to fight.
It seems a bit troublesome.
