Then Earth Pot threw the worm into the open space behind, er, to be precise, that was the place where he was going to dig the foundation for the new building.
Then he started the summoning ceremony... He recruited a group of bullies to help him dig the foundation, everything is so impeccable!
Hearing this, Du Yuqi couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and then couldn't help saying:
"How much does it cost to hire someone to dig the foundation? His sacrifice calls ten people to help him dig the foundation. The cost is probably ten times that of the construction workers."
Bwante said:
"My clansmen just came to Hutton Marr not long ago. Recently, there seems to be some unrest on the mainland. There are often news of various mutant creatures infesting and attacking people. There was even a phenomenon that business routes were cut off at one point. The problem is that once the army passes by I can't find any reason, after killing those mutant creatures, they will continue to appear after a while."
"A transportation hub city like Hutton Marr relies on smooth roads and a steady stream of goods. Once there is a problem with the well-connected roads, the decline of the city can be reduced, so the city government specially allocated With the payment of money, fixed post forts are built at intervals on the road, which can effectively protect the safety of the caravan.”
"It is precisely because of this that the prices of construction workers and construction materials in Hutton Mar are soaring. Why do the earth pots collect all the excavated soil? It is also out of this consideration, so the cost of construction workers has always been low. on the rise."
After listening to Buwante's explanation, Du Yuqi still found it difficult to accept, but heard Buwante say again:
"The increase in construction costs is one reason, and the identity of the earth pot is very mysterious, and he came from an ancient family, so the worship of the God of Contract has been accumulated over time, so it seems that he Such a high-level believer will have several sacrifice privileges every year that do not require spell-casting materials, and there is a time limit."
"For a large-scale sacrificial call like this, if it needs the relevant spell-casting materials, it must be a waste of money. However, if the earth pot uses the sacrifice privilege that does not require spell-casting materials, then you only need to take it out yourself. The offerings are attractive, and the earthen jars are his self-made pocket jars, and the cost is extremely low, so if it is calculated in this way, it is of course more cost-effective than hiring workers."
Du Yuqi was a little puzzled at first, but soon thought of one thing, that is, when he sacrificed an item with the power of time last time, he got the response priority twice, and it seemed that there was no time limit. In this way, a guy like Tu Can who has been passed down for five generations must have a very rich background, and it is not a particularly remarkable thing to get the privilege of offering sacrifices without using spellcasting materials a few times.
Then Bwante took the initiative to talk about the purpose of answering the call this time, which was to deliberately oppose the earthen pot.
"I usually don't respond to summons. If I didn't want to practice the family's secret method to communicate with the Icetooth Clan, I wouldn't even get the qualification to summon... Uh, sorry, I'm going too far. The main reason is that a month ago, my A cousin was cheated once by this earth pot V. The contract of sacrifice said that it was to escort a batch of goods to the west coast, but in fact it was because something happened to his convoy and my cousin was asked to pull the cart, which was enough. Walked through the mud for three days!"
"How can we Bantu people suffer such humiliation? That's why I came here this time to express my anger for my cousin. Fortunately, this fellow Tucan still has a wink, otherwise, let's see how I deal with him!"
After hearing this, Du Yuqi also felt very speechless. This earthen pot is really treacherous. It actually played tricks during the summoning and sacrifice, and asked someone to help him pull the cart... So I encountered this job of digging a hole. It's the luckiest of misfortunes.
At this time, Du Yuqi had realized that Buwante was very knowledgeable, so he said that he was summoned from another world, and what he should do if he wanted to stay in the Arad continent for a longer period of time.
Buwant told Du Yuqi that the most difficult and energy-intensive step of summoning is actually the process of opening the plane channel, even if it is a summoned object from another world, after passing through the plane channel. In fact, it is equivalent to being accepted by this plane, and the consumption of staying for a minute and staying for a day is not great.
The time the summoned object stays in the plane is determined by the rarity of the spellcasting materials consumed by the summoner at the time of sacrifice. The more spellcasting materials consumed, the rarer it is, the longer the summoned object can stay.
At the same time, the status of the summoner in the God of Contract will also determine the length of time the summoned object stays.
Of course, there is another decisive factor, which is the will of the summoner. Obviously the summoned object can stay for three days, but the summoner feels that it is inappropriate to let the summoned object stay for only one minute, then it can only stay for one minute.
Buwanga finally told Du Yuqi that there is a saying called acclimatization. If a person goes to a distant place, various problems are prone to occur, not to mention the change of the environment between planes? So under normal circumstances, even if the situation permits, the time to stay on the alien plane should not be too long.
After the two chatted for a while, Du Yuqi got enough news and made up his mind, so he threw the remaining half pack of cigarettes to Buvant, and then said that he wanted to go for a walk in the street. After a few minutes, after walking through two shops, I heard the yelling of earth pots urging to go to work.
It turned out that this guy saw that the sun was almost over at noon, so he couldn't wait to urge a group of people to continue "looking for monsters". This guy always put up things like contracts to talk about things, and he had a very good meal at noon, with wine and meat, and he played hard and soft. For example, the tauren and goblins obeyed obediently.
Naturally, if this person is not in harmony, he can't do anything, so the group of people can only admit it, continue to dig holes honestly, and comfort themselves that they don't have to take any risks in answering the call this time. As for the energy consumed, sleeping The last time I slept, it would grow back like the leaves of the thunder tree.
However, at this time, after Du Yuqi understood what the earth pot wanted to do, and also learned about the local prices, naturally he would not be so stupid as to dig a pit here, and directly pulled the earth pot V to a secluded corner. :
"Dear Mr. Pot, I have a suggestion."
Tu Can looked at Du Yuqi with vigilant eyes, as if he was looking at a mouse that broke into his rice vat, and after covering his trouser pocket, he said:
"What do you suggest?"
