Two months passed uneventfully.
The White Feather Clan and the Fox Clan are both powerful ethnic groups with tens of thousands of years of history. It is not a big problem to come up with high-end resources worth tens of billions of source crystals.
They/they personally agreed, which means there is a little bit of heartache equivalent to the distance between the index finger and the thumb.
I don’t really have any opinion.
It's just that in my mind, I have raised my evaluation of "Xianmen" by several levels.
—Not only are there top-ranked experts, but their own background is not bad either. "Xianmen" is not just an emerging force!
The hundreds of magic weapons sold in the past month alone can be seen as average.
I'm afraid they have taken out all the inventory over the years, right? !
The core block of Baicheng, as well as the damaged areas outside, were all repaired within a few days, except that the shops were replaced.
After suffering such a disaster, Baicheng's business naturally declined a bit.
Magical weapons are a one-stop deal - the kind without after-sales maintenance. Magical weapons are inherently capable of repairing them. Most of those in Baicheng who can afford to buy magic weapons have already bought them. The daily turnover of "Treasure Pavilion" has dropped a lot.
But still a cash cow.
When the Baiyu tribe thought that the "Treasure Pavilion" had a high yield of magic weapons, they did not know that Tang Yu built "Treasure Pavilion" in two other neutral cities.
Two years ago,
He is actually optimistic about many cities, such as the "Yaxin City" of the "Yaxin Empire" and the "Crystal City" of the "Spar City State". They are all giant cities in the mountains and seas with developed commerce and trade.
However, the 'Yaxin Empire' was brutally besieged, and the 'Yaxin City' was put on wartime alert, and inspections in and out of the city were very strict... Business was difficult to do.
The same goes for the "Crystal City". Many casual cultivators in the Void and Unity Realm have already left the area where the Crystal City-State is located in order to avoid being affected by the war.
Although the departed Taxu only occupies a small part, it is precisely this part that is the target customer of "Jubao Pavilion".
What kind of business is there when all the rich people run away
Several neutral cities are also experiencing problems. Some have already destroyed half of their cities, and some have a depressing atmosphere.
Boss Tang had no choice but to build only two "Jubao Pavilion" chain stores.
But he is also vain...
Who knows, will the top forces belonging to those two neutral cities suddenly break out into a war
The demon clan is doing things secretly, and everything seems to be in peace.
Unless he builds his own city.
But it faces many problems.
Building a city, even a huge city, is very easy for today's green city. The difficulty is that there are no customers.
Neutral cities like Baicheng have a reputation accumulated over tens of thousands of years, and there are countless people who come and go.
If he builds a city, how many people will pass by in a short period of time
"No matter what, I can sell it for as long as I want."
"Jubao Pavilion" had the highest turnover in the first few days after it opened. Even if the business couldn't be done later because of the war, it seemed... it wouldn't be a big loss
If you think about it this way, even a city that is one or two less commercially prosperous than Baicheng can still open a smaller "Treasure Pavilion"
It feels doable.
"Nancy, please hand over my first draft to the business department and let them find suitable cities and formulate corresponding plans."
"Uh...oh!"
…
Blue Water Principality,
The Grand Duke has been very troubled recently.
First, there was a conflict with Nucang Principality, which somehow escalated several times and finally broke out into a national war.
The national strength of Lanshui and Nucang is evenly matched. By the end of the war, the vitality of both countries will definitely be severely damaged.
Blue Water Grand Duke has been looking for a solution.
For example, hiring top experts to assassinate Duke Nucang—but there are many warring factions in Nucang Dukedom.
For example, hiring strong men to help fight - he hired several people from the unity realm, but they acted like uncles.
Another example,
Grand Duke Blue Water happened to hear about Count Violet, and there were pirates selling puppets, which were high-end and in large quantities.
He was tempted.
Facts have proved his excellent vision. In that battle, with the help of many puppets who were not afraid of death and had fierce firepower, Lan Shui defeated Wancang.
Later, Grand Duke Blue Water purchased a larger batch of puppets from the Black Skeleton Pirate Group.
He was confident that with the help of his puppet army, he could take over Nucang Principality in one fell swoop and reach the capital of Nucang.
However…
"???"
When Grand Duke Blue Water saw the dark puppet army in the opposite camp, he was completely confused.
The model of the puppet army on the opposite side is exactly the same as my own!
What about the promise of credibility
He was also a fool to believe in the credibility of the pirates.
Most of the puppet legions of the two principalities were destroyed in the wars.
Xu was heartbroken, and a brief period of peace entered between the two countries.
However…
"What? Pirates again! Do those pirates take our Blue Water Principality seriously? Where is the Navy? Where is the Seventh Fleet? Where is General Griffin!"
The Duke of Blue Water roared and his saliva splashed on the person opposite him.
The man was trembling, opened his mouth, and finally said with a trembling voice, "The Seventh Fleet was completely wiped out, and General Griffin also... died."
Grand Duke Blue Water was startled suddenly and stared in disbelief.
General Griffin is one of the top five powerful men in the Blue Water Principality. The Seventh Fleet under his command is even more invincible and has sunk countless pirates and warships of hostile countries.
In the Seventh Fleet, General Griffin has such high prestige that even Duke Blue Water himself is a little afraid of him.
"The Seventh Fleet was destroyed? Griffin and he were in the Unity Realm and couldn't escape?"
Grand Duke Blue Water realized the seriousness of the matter.
In fact, recently, many pirates have been found in the waters around Blue Water.
There were even pirates with a bounty of millions who appeared openly in the cities of the Blue Water Principality, bounty hunters who regarded them as mobile crystal tickets, and practitioners with a sense of justice, all died.
The Principality of Blue Water is at war with Nu Cang, and the Grand Duke was initially unwilling to provoke these pirates.
but,
Merchant ships were robbed, pirates ransacked the port, and fought recklessly in the city, resulting in countless casualties and so on.
Duke Lan Shui finally made up his mind and dispatched the Seventh Fleet to guard the waters where pirates were most rampant.
However…
No good news came, only news of death.
That's no ordinary pirate, that's a big pirate!
and,
more than one!
The Principality of Blue Water entered a high state of war readiness. As news came from various places, within two days, information about some well-known pirates was presented to the Grand Duke's desk.
There are five great pirates with bounties exceeding tens of millions!
This is just not very hidden and exposed.
There is even "Bone Blade" Avale with a bounty of 36 million, the second in command of the Abyss Pirates. In the eyes of the Duke of Blue Water, he is almost a legendary pirate.
"The sea area where the Abyss Pirates operate is at least several kingdoms away from my blue water. How could it suddenly appear here?!"
"There are other big pirates, what happened!"
Even Youhai doesn't know the level of Duke Blue Water, let alone Youhai will appear in the nearby sea in three months.
In fact, Youhai is very large, comparable to the Whirlpool Sea, and much larger than the Principality of Blue Water and the Principality of Nucang combined.
The coordinates given by the Three Emperors were for a large area of sea, only a corner of which was adjacent to the Blue Water Principality. If not, there would have been even more pirate groups appearing near the Blue Water Principality.
Not all great pirates are extremely vicious characters.
Some of them just docked for supplies, and the more "professional" ones robbed merchant ships, but there were also some pirate groups that caused disasters in the Principality.
Next door Nu Cang is similar, just slightly better.
There are only three or four Unity Realm masters directly under the Duke of Blue Water. There are a few great nobles with deep foundations in the Duke, and there are also hidden powerful Unity Realm experts.
but not enough,
Pirates as powerful as the "Bone Blade" can be defeated by one person.
"Can we only ask for help from the suzerain country?"
The Archduke frowned.
Empires, kingdoms, and principalities are all distinct levels.
Kingdoms and principalities almost always have their own suzerainty.
Tributes must be paid to the suzerain country every year in exchange for the suzerain country's protection.
But it's really useless.
The Grand Duke knew that.
The suzerain kingdoms of Lan Shui and Nu Cang are both "Dark Moon" kingdoms, but despite being beaten to death for so long, they haven't seen any reaction from "Dark Moon" - as long as they pay enough tribute every year.
"That's all, let's contact the Dark Moon Kingdom first."
Duke Lan Shui ordered his confidants.
Three days later,
He contacted Dark Moon's confidants through a special rune formation and finally brought back the news.
He lowered his head and said in a dejected tone: "The Dark Moon Kingdom accepted our gift, but they only said that we should activate the formation to defend the capital. After a while, the pirates will leave."
Grand Duke Lan Shui clenched his fist tightly and then loosened it weakly.
“#%￥&!!”
He sat slumped in his chair.
Actually, well, the Dark Moon Kingdom is right. As long as the Nether Sea opens in another month, the big pirates will naturally leave.
Of course Grand Duke Blue Water doesn’t know.
During the three days of contact, many pirates fought again on the Blue Water Island.
The unscrupulous battle between the strong men of the Unity Realm can turn a large city into ruins in just a few minutes with just the aftermath.
"Pirates! Damn pirates! Uh...?"
Speaking of pirates,
Grand Duke Blue Water thought of Lorraine and the others, and of the Black Skeleton Pirates who had cheated them.
The Black Skull Pirates only want money, while other pirates are wreaking havoc in the principality.
With the support of his peers, the Black Skeletons immediately became a powerful pirate group with organization, dreams and ambition in the Grand Duke's mind.
For a time, I felt much less disgusted.
The favorability level is almost positive.
But this does not solve the current problem.
Grand Duke Blue Water racked his brains, and suddenly, his expression changed, "Since the Black Skeleton Pirates are all about credibility and only want money, can we let the Black Skeletons deal with those pirates?"
Duke Blue Water didn't know what happened at the pirate gathering.
But in the eyes of the Grand Duke, the strength shown by Lorraine and the others was almost as good as that of the great pirates.
"Perhaps, it is really feasible. But how to impress the Black Skeleton? Source Crystal alone may not be enough..."
Due to the war, the Blue Water Principality now has very few source crystals in stock. It is impossible for Black Skull to work for these 'ordinary belongings'.
suddenly,
He remembered a treasure that his ancestor had obtained.
It is an extremely precious treasure that the ancestors dare not reveal even a single bit about. Even now, only he is the only one in the family who knows about it!
"I don't have the ability to use that treasure, and I don't even dare to take it out. In that case, why not..."
