The correct way to open the elf

Chapter 301 Trophies

"My land, the treasury of our kingdom, does not have so much gold and gems." Bori muttered softly.

“Don’t be surprised. The Golden Empire in the desert is rich in gold. There is no war there, and the rule of the Golden Empire is very stable.

Although the overall population is not large, the wealth and collections of both the royal family and the nobles are astonishing.

And this time, because of the undead plague that broke out there, the only big city in the entire desert empire, the Golden City, was destroyed, and few people escaped alive.

In other words, the Golden City, which has been cleared out by us, has become a city without an owner.

Displayed here are the more precious gems, artworks and gold that we transported back this time. There are still many other valuable treasures there.

Besides, we haven't searched the entire city except for the palace treasury and a few luxurious buildings.

If we complete the search of the entire Golden City, conservatively speaking, our gains will at least triple."

Many people covered their mouths in surprise.

"Darren, then they..."

“Except for the small villages and towns along the river, all the royal family members and ministers of the imperial city, along with the entire city’s residents, have fallen in the undead plague.

Now, the entire Imperial City and Outer City of the Golden City are under the control of the warriors of our four tribes. Even if the small nobles on the periphery of the Golden Empire want to return to the Golden City, it is impossible.

After all, the plague there not only poses a security threat to the rear of the Great Wasteland where we are based, but it also costs us a huge price to clear out the undead. The consumption of ammunition alone has almost emptied half of our inventory.

Our soldiers have been killing hundreds of thousands of undead for nearly four days. Their weapons are worn out, not to mention the soldiers who have been fighting continuously at a high intensity.

Therefore, even if it is to make up for the loss of the Iron Army, the Iron Army will not give up that place."

"What about the undead? Will the plane passage open there?"

“No, it was done by two Undead Mage. They have been eliminated by Master Demps and Nitia. There is no danger of the Undead appearing there again for the time being.

Even if the undead appear there, we must station warriors there, because the ultimate goal of the undead is to create large-scale plague and death. It will become an outpost in the east to guard us against threats from the desert. "

Feng Yu lied in all seriousness, vaguely avoided the question, and then immediately changed the subject.

“We still have some Moran mercenaries, and I can see that these guys don’t want to leave.

I heard that some mercenaries who had already returned to Moran have returned to our Xiangpu City. This also shows that the living environment in our Xiangpu City has completely surpassed the two major empires of mankind.

These mercenaries will always be an unstable factor if they stay in Cattail City. It is just right to transfer them to Golden City to help us develop Golden City, killing two birds with one stone."

Bo Rui nodded: "Well, this method is not bad. We are also worried about how to deal with those mercenaries."

"So what are you going to do with all this gold and gems?"

"Sell them all to humans."

"what?"

"Sell it to humans?"

Feng Yu nodded: "If we can't resist the plane war, these things are useless, and there may not even be a chance to take them to the grave.

We must use them, before the plane war begins and while humans are still selling precious resources to us, to stockpile as many precious resources as possible in order to cope with more wars in the future.

By the time humans realize this, even if we have these treasures, we won’t be able to exchange them for precious resources.”

"That's the truth."

Feng Yu continued, "So, I plan to build a trade port open to humans in the Linjiang area of ​​the trade zone that has been moved to the south. We will use the barter method to sell our goods and treasures to humans in exchange for the resources we need.

We should try to stockpile more materials, manufacture weapons and fortresses before the plane war comes. If necessary, we can even hire human craftsmen with gold and goods to help us build fortresses.

Transfer our craftsmen to the Snow-Top Mountains and build a large integrated military fortress in the area below the Dwarf King's City to build our weapons production factories and residential areas, and store large amounts of food and ammunition in the Snow-Top Mountains.

Eventually, we will build the Snow Summit Mountains into a backup base for our Cattail City.

In the future, even if the Great Wasteland once again becomes an ancient battlefield with dense plane passages, we can rely on airships and armed steamboats to build a safer line of defense along the Lengshui River, open the Great Wasteland to humans, and let humans bear the pressure for us."

After Feng Yu finished speaking, Bori immediately said, "We dwarves can help with this. It is easiest to defend by digging out the rock walls in the Snow Peak Mountains and building a fortress relying on the dangerous mountain terrain. We are good at this."

Feng Yu and Bo Rui exchanged glances and both smiled knowingly.

The dwarves really hope that Feng Yu can move Cattail City to the Snow Summit Mountains. By then, with Feng Yu setting up a cannon below and the dwarves providing cover in the back, the dwarf kingdom will be completely safe.

Feng Yu also had to work with Bori and the dwarves who also hoped that Cattail City would build a backup base in the Snow Summit Mountains to settle this matter quickly and decisively, and obtain the tacit consent of Anthony and Demps, thus completely cutting off the idea of ​​the elven royal family retreating eastward.

Queen Linda sighed helplessly as she looked at Feng Yu, who was discussing the Snow Peak Mountain defense system with him, and old man Anthony, who was "appreciating" the artwork.

The dwarves and gnomes all have homes to build and cannot provide many workers, and Feng Yu does not want to use all their idle labor to engage in construction.

The gnomes have a large number of skilled craftsmen, and the dwarves are natural experts in mining and metallurgy. In addition to technical talents, Cattail City is also in need of their ordinary young people as it is about to expand its military.

A large number of halflings is a necessary condition for the large-scale stockpiling of grain in Pupu City, so Feng Yu thought about it and decided that he could only choose the low-skilled laborers from the large human population.

"How about this? I'll think about it over the next two days, then form a complete plan and submit it to the parliament for filing. Let's stop here today."

The four simple tribes who had been used to hard times were jealous of such a huge pile of gold, but even Queen Linda knew that Feng Yu was right. If they couldn't survive the plane war, this thing would be useless. It would be better to exchange it for food and weapons. Even if the Yuehua royal family and Feng Yu couldn't see eye to eye, Feng Yu would not cut off the weapons supply for the Longyue Forest.
