The strangeness is coming, I build a forbidden kingdom of God in the end times

Chapter 169 The Evil God's Movement

"The price of extraordinary second-level bronze ore is higher than that of black iron ore, and it is more difficult to collect, so the transaction price will also be more expensive."

"If we use ordinary rice for trading, we need 50 tons of ordinary rice to trade for one ton of bronze ore."

"But the quantity you need is quite large. With my authority, I can give you an 8% discount. That is, for every 40 ordinary rice, you can trade one ton of bronze ore."

"As for the extraordinary third-level silver ore, I cannot make the decision with my authority, but I can convey your request to Lord Iron Beard."

After stating his conditions, Tiegeda couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

In his opinion, it was already a terrifying thing that Su Hao could trade one thousand tons of rice at one time.

If it were some small force, a thousand tons of rice would be enough for them to eat to death.

Moreover, the unit price of bronze ore is much more expensive than that of black iron ore. Tiegeda doesn't think that Su Hao, who has just eaten a hundred tons of black iron ore, can also eat a hundred tons of bronze ore.

"Forty tons of ordinary rice for one ton of bronze ore?"

After hearing Tiegeda's offer, Su Hao touched his chin and looked thoughtful.

For Su Hao, being able to trade ordinary rice for extraordinary second-level ore is a very cost-effective thing no matter what the price is.

However, forty tons of rice is not a small number.

Based on three meals a day, a normal adult consumes only more than 200 kilograms of rice in a year.

In a world like the end of the world where food is scarce, let alone 200 kilograms a year, even if it is reduced by half, that kind of life can be considered comfortable.

This means that 9000 tons of rice are enough to feed more than adults for a month.

And this is just the price of one ton of bronze ore.

If there were no external attacks, these 9000 tons of rice would be equivalent to the lives of more than dwarves.

No matter how precious bronze ore is, it is insignificant compared to life.

So, trading one ton of bronze ore for forty tons of rice is indeed not a small amount.

Although Su Hao has flower elves like Hua Yao, the planting speed is surprisingly fast, and forty tons of ordinary rice can be grown in a short time.

But this is a deal after all, and a long-term deal at that.

Even though the dwarves are straightforward, they are not as complicated as humans.

But this does not mean that dwarves are all heartless.

If Su Hao was really like a fool and agreed to the price offered by the other party without thinking, he would be cheated by the other party sooner or later.

After thinking for a moment, Su Hao shook his head slightly and said softly:
"I think you should also know what a large amount of food means in today's world."

"Although rice is just a common crop without any grade, in today's food shortage environment, food means life."

“If you lose your life, let alone a second-level extraordinary ore, even if it’s a second-level or third-level extraordinary item, it’s just a pile of scrap metal!”

"So, I cannot accept the price you offer. I won't argue with you. One ton of bronze ore can only be traded for 30 tons of rice at most."

"One ton of silver ore can be traded for 200 tons of rice, or other high-grade extraordinary plants. Any more than that will be a no-go."

"You can report my price to your leader and see what he thinks." Su Hao did not lower the price too much. After all, Hua Yao and others were growing plants too fast, and the rice was really not valuable.

But he had to express his attitude, otherwise he would be taken advantage of by the other party, which would be a bit disgusting.

"One ton of bronze ore can be traded for thirty tons of rice, and one ton of silver ore can be traded for two hundred tons of rice... Please wait a moment, I will report this to Lord Iron Beard."

After saying that, Tiegeda hung up the phone in a hurry and reported the price proposed by Su Hao to the dwarf king Tiehuzi.

Finally, after some negotiations, Su Hao agreed to the deal at a price of one ton of bronze ore, 32 tons of ordinary rice, one ton of silver ore, and 220 tons of ordinary rice.

"Go prepare the black iron ore and bronze ore first. We will try to complete the first batch of transactions within three days."

"Within three days... no problem. We will definitely gather 100 tons of black iron ore and 100 tons of bronze ore within three days. As for the silver ore, we will also hurry up."

"Sure, contact me when you're ready."

After saying that, Su Hao hung up the phone and sent a message to Hua Yao.

[Su Hao: In the next few days, we will focus on planting rice and other food crops in the other planting area. We will try to plant all the food crops in this area as soon as possible. I will need them later.]

[Hua Yao: Okay, Master. I will arrange it right away. I will definitely not let you down.]

"A 3 km x 3 km planting area is 9 square meters, equivalent to 1.35 mu. Once all the rice is planted, we can harvest to tons of rice at once. It won't take long before we can drain the dwarf group's stock."

Su Hao smiled slightly, then closed the chat interface of the communication bracelet, rode on the back of the giant panda, and continued to move towards the dark dungeon.

Su Hao was very relieved to let Hua Yao handle the rice planting. Besides, he knew nothing about planting and it would be of no use if he returned. It would be better to let Hua Yao and the others handle it themselves.

……

Dark dungeon, sea of ​​dead.

A huge bone dragon flew down from the sky and landed beside a broken tomb.

Looking into the grave, a white soul fire conveyed a message that could only be communicated through the soul, and the soul fire on the face formed a resentful expression.

"Ahem, don't worry, I believe that person will come back..."

"Sure, of course I am sure. Even if you don't believe me, can you still not believe in my God?"

"According to the oracle before my god fell asleep, the Chosen One will definitely come back here, take away the things He left behind, help my god seize the divine power, and wake Him up from his slumber!"

The white soul fire spoke a long string of words as if it was talking to itself.

Although he spoke confidently, he couldn't help but reveal deep worry in his eyes.

In his opinion, the oracle could not be false, but he could not be sure when the chosen one in the oracle would arrive.

More importantly, the evil god's influence on this sea of ​​​​the dead is getting bigger and bigger, and he is very worried about how long this wisp of soul fire can last.

Bang-!
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the center of the Sea of ​​Undead, and a huge pit appeared on the ground. A ball of black gas emerged from it and spread towards the Sea of ​​Undead.

In the midst of the black air, one can vaguely see some skinny figures.
