Black Wizard Zhu Peng

Vol 10 Chapter 11: : Killing, the rise of the Longbow family

   In the afternoon, in the dense forest.

   The last ogre ran away in panic. At the beginning, it was still chasing and killing the horse-riding human with a big stick. However, as time went on, the situation gradually changed reversal for some reason.

Especially after the 30-odd crossbow bolts in the quiver of Zhu Peng's crossbow were all nailed to it, this fat blue man, who was more than two meters high, was shot blind at this moment, and his whole body was covered with wounds. The flowing blood gradually depleted its original endless physical energy.

If he were to complete the beheading, Zhu Peng, who rode his horse in the woods and rode alone, would have ended the battle long ago. He had consciously driven the ogre to a place familiar to him. When he arrived in a familiar environment, his intelligence was not high. The creatures instinctively choose the familiar route, which is the route back to the ogre lair.

Although the intelligence is not high, there is still beast instinct after all. Some clever ogres can even learn a small number of common language words, can understand human words and obey instructions, even the untrained ones in front of them are close. After the lair, he refused to return, no matter how the terrible man behind him chased and attacked it.

   "Unfortunately, it was too slow to react. I probably already know where it is now." The ogre is huge and weighs astonishing. Looking at the traces left in the forest, Zhu Peng can almost touch it by now.

   At this time, the dragon-scale blood skeleton, who had been following Zhu Peng, holding a double hammer, rushed to kill the severely wounded ogre.

Undead creatures have one advantage. They are tireless and have endless physical strength. Even if the bones are damaged, they can be passively repaired by absorbing and transforming the master’s magic power. The general strength-type Tier 3 fighters cannot wield the double hammer in the hands of the dragon scale blood skeleton. After a protracted battle, the mutant skeleton can always wave it as long as it can be picked up at the beginning.

   This is also one of the advantages of undead creatures lacking spiritual wisdom compared to humans. Fighters of the same rank fight against them. If the human side can't make a quick battle, the more he fights, the more he consumes his physical energy, the lower his chance of winning. It is undoubtedly a tragedy to use the physical power slot and the magic power slot to consume compared to the same period, which is full of various tragedies.

To complete the killing, the dragon scale blood skeletons are specially bathed in the blood of the ogre. The undead are naturally bloodthirsty. Let them bathe in the blood. On the one hand, you can reduce your own magic consumption, on the other hand, you can also try The dragon scale blood skeleton plunders/steals the power of the slain...Although it fails most of the time, as long as the number of attempts is sufficient, it will always succeed.

   When he rode his horse back to the point where the business trip was attacked, he accidentally discovered that the remaining businessmen surrounded Victor's family, and both sides were at war.

It turned out that when Zhu Peng brought his mutant skeleton to drive away the ogre, old Victor asked everyone to come forward and want to enjoy the aristocratic style and the treatment of being a benefactor. However, the business traveler was saddened by the casualties of his companions. , One of the young men hugged his dead father, it was the time for grief.

The two sides talked not speculatively, and gradually clashes. Danny and the veteran will inevitably choose to maintain the authority of old Victor, and the caravan has just died a lot of people, and the leader is the only son of the dead caravan leader. Coupled with the contradiction between the veterans shooting everyone before, the conflict between the two parties quickly intensified, and at this time Zhu Peng returned.

   "Hey, don't you want revenge?"

"Yes. No. Give you this crossbow. Come and kill me. If it weren't for me to order them to defend on the spot, your father might not have to die." Ce immediately moved the already wound military crossbow in his hand. Throw it to the furious and angry young man.

   This time, the young man was really stunned. Looking at the **** weird skeleton beside the necromancer's horse, the young man was eager to try but obviously didn't dare.

   "Why, afraid? Oh, then I take it back." With that, Zhu Peng called back the mutant skeleton soldier beside him, and at this moment, the young man in front of him suddenly raised his crossbow and pulled the trigger.

   Zhu Peng waved his right hand, covering the back of his hand with bone and claws that were more than steel, and flew the crossbow. Then the man on horseback smiled and ordered: "Kill them all."

   is not a beauty, not even a good-looking boy, dare to be congestive in front of me? Young man, you really don't understand the preciousness of life.

   "Victor-senpai, is this really no problem? They are also citizens of the Empire after all, this kind of thing..."

"Why do you think I let him shoot me an arrow? This is a memory crystal ball. The following crimes are committed. Even if I go to the Supreme Court of the Empire, I am not guilty and I am acquitted. Refunding ten thousand steps is just a loss of money." Playing with the memory crystal ball in one hand, this thing is a relatively expensive alchemy product. It is generally used by nobles to increase the interest. You can buy one at the market price of 1,000 gold coins, but a caravan of more than 50 people is located on the border of the empire. High-risk transportation, no one would take this trip without the profit of eight thousand gold coins. As long as this wave of this group of merchants Zhu Peng is killed, it is pure profit.

Of course, if the young man just now chose to let go and not attack, Zhu Peng would not be greedy for this little money and deliberately embarrass him. Please also prepare for being killed by others.

At this moment, Danny is actually pleading for the group of businessmen in disguise, but Zhu Peng’s memory crystal ball blocked all his remaining words, and the possibility of himself being discovered is very small, no cost, no risk His blood earned tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of profits, and this business is really unreasonable.

Regardless of withdrawing a knife, crying, running away, or kneeling for mercy, everyone in the last remaining caravan was killed. In fact, if the young man’s father was in charge, such a thing would never happen. .

The two parties will go to the city of Venetian amicably, and maybe they can become business partners in the future, but the father died first in order to save his son, and his son vented his sadness and indignation. The caravan that my father ran his entire life led to destruction... It's a pity, but adults must learn to control their emotions when they enter society, because they are not just looking around for parents, there are people accustomed to you everywhere.

   In some extreme situations, the people you provoke will be terrible beyond your imagination!

After killing all the people in the caravan who had already suffered heavy losses, Zhu Peng announced that everyone would be given a share. This completely mobilized the morale of the veterans. They felt that the boss they were following this time was not only It's just cruel and strong, and he's not stingy at all.

In the process of inventorying the goods, he found some jewellery and luxury goods, which made Zhu Peng's estimate of the profit of the caravan improved again. However, he only hired about 20 people for the goods worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins. Guards.

   It may also be that this business road is already well-knowledged, but unfortunately I encountered an ogre colony that had just migrated. This saves it, saves all the lives.

Zhu Peng gave the old Victor a box of jewellery and asked him to distribute it to the female family members. Even the gold and silver jewellery stained with blood was full of temptation. No, it should be even more temptation. Accompanied by a sense of power to do whatever you want.

   Compared to jewelry and gems, this power is even more fascinating for women. The two wives of old Victor and the two sisters of Daxiu suddenly saw that a powerful Victor family was forming and prospering, and most of them fell asleep around the fire with good expectations for tomorrow.

That night, Zhu Peng took Danny and five veterans to the ogre lair to search, because they had just migrated, and there was not much accumulated wealth, but there was a strong female ogre and five-headed blue. Chubby cub.

   The female ogre actually wanted to kill all the cubs after discovering that she was lost to the invaders, but was directly killed by Zhu Peng the moment she returned.

   Five-headed ogres, if they are well cultivated, they will be the five-headed future powerful third-order combat power, which is really no better for guarding the family and deterring the people.

Most creatures are very cute when they are young because they have no other survivability. The same is true for the five-headed blue fat cubs. They are easy to feed and eat almost everything. Everyone It is enough to leave some soup for them with the leftover food.

On the next journey, the two girls Lisa and Ilia had a great time with five blue fat cubs. The teenage girl held a plump and heavy blue meat ball and even gave them Put on beautiful clothes and tie a bow... Fortunately, Fat Blue has a low intelligence and should not remember the things of his childhood. Otherwise, these future war beasts and murder weapons recall today’s life, and I don’t know if he will be ashamed to copy Pick up a mace for yourself.

   The next journey was very smooth, and the group arrived at the imperial city of Vigny.

  ……………………

   After arriving in this seaside city, the first thing is to find a place to live, and the second thing is to handle the goods.

Because Zhu Peng and his team did not have familiar channels, the goods in hand only sold 100,000 gold coins. If it were not for Zhu Peng's identity as a high-level necromancer, this number would be even lower, 170,000. Goods of gold coins will be at least reduced by more than half the price.

  Originally, I only planned to operate slowly after going to the island. Now that I have money, Zhu Peng directly took Danny and others to the slave market to buy slaves.

   people, people, people!

This is the most basic and most important prerequisite for development. Sometimes too much population is indeed a burden on society. The collapse of the feudal dynasty in ancient China was often because the social structure and productivity at the time could no longer bear the large number. s population.

   However, if there is a lack of population, economic development and overall quantity will be impossible to talk about. After all, a large population will far outweigh the disadvantages for economic development. Of course, what is needed is that the social structure can liberate social productivity.

The small fishing village on Anstein Island has at most more than two hundred people. This is not enough for Zhu Peng to spread. Although it is said that there are still some natives on the island, these natives have not been domesticated for one or two generations. Unable to integrate into the main body of civilization, and even as a slave, you can only be the most low-level slave, without craftsmanship, untamed, and even looks ugly.

Bringing subordinates to the slave market, there are human slaves who are sold like livestock, showing their bodies everywhere. If, as a simple earth person, suddenly come here from the 21st century civilization, I am afraid that this scene will be very uncomfortable... …Zhu Peng is very comfortable, because the wizarding world also has a slave market, and the scale is much larger.

   Slave, the term sounds very humble, but it is not cheap, and it is not something that ordinary people can easily consume.

An adult mainland male needs thirty gold coins, and an adult mainland woman also needs twenty gold coins. This world is different from the wizarding world. The wizarding world sells slaves and only sells the natives of the heavens that have been captured. In this world, as long as they make money, they even sell themselves.

  While walking, Zhu Peng saw a slave owner hawking the wife of an immortal imperial prisoner. Although she was old and decayed and had sagging skin, her status as the wife of an official once gave her a lot of points.

Zhu Peng didn’t have a roar of injustice. The worst time of the Chinese Samurai Association was selling children and begging for work. At that time, no one rescued them. Later, as people like Li Jingxuan and Zhu Peng became stronger, the whole China The samurai would gradually become stronger, and the sect began to buy slaves in large quantities.

Some ordinary families have accumulated 20 or 30 years, and finally bought a fox girl or cat girl as a daughter-in-law for their children. They are young, beautiful and well-behaved. They are filial to the in-laws and take care of their husbands. They are suitable for the house and IKEA. Cost-effective lifestyle.

"First, two thousand slaves, two-thirds of the male officials, and then a few stonemasons, simple tools..." Zhu Peng had a confession in his heart, so the money was spent like running water, even buying a big ship. Recruit experienced captains and sailors, because the lifeline like this must be in your own hands.

  Anstein Island is lonely overseas. If there is no ship that truly belongs to him, what is the difference between being exiled?

   "Danny, you should serve as the captain for a period of time. Because it is a fixed route, it does not require much navigation knowledge. This is a very fatal point. I am not so relieved if it is handed over to others."

After hearing the words, Danny agreed very happy, but even so Zhu Peng did not intend to let him do it for a long time. A land duck wearing heavy armor on a boat, especially a heavy armored swordsman on a boat, was damaged. If it is in the open sea, I am afraid that any wild pirate captain can clean up Danny. Fortunately, Anstein Island is not too far away from the mainland, and pirates are not too rampant.

Buying slaves, buying big ships, recruiting sailors and even captains. In fact, even the destroyed caravan does not have such financial resources, because they themselves have huge costs, the cost of goods, the cost of manpower, and the final benefits. Many people pay dividends, but not too much actually falls into everyone's hands.

   However, Zhu Peng and the others have removed all the expenditure items, and the original long flow has made a costless one-off transaction, so they can have this kind of wealth in a short time.

It cost more than 60,000 gold coins to buy slaves and add tools, and more than 30,000 gold coins were spent on buying sea ships, recruiting captains and sailors. In a flash, Zhu Peng had no money on hand, even if he couldn’t earn it quickly. In terms of money, it won’t take long to just feed these people, which is a huge problem.

It’s not just Zhu Peng who knows this. The old Victor also expressed anxiety after he had a basic understanding of the situation on the island of Anstein in the city of Veneto. In the eyes of the old man, his son was too eager for quick success. Anxious for success, but how could he understand Zhu Peng's mentality.

   The sun is still far away, and the day is gone!

Zhu Peng has no interest in playing small business games slowly. He quickly builds a big framework. He has too many methods to spend money in the current social context. He is not a high-level life form in this world. Not smart enough, not smart enough, but the civilization of this high-devil world is like this. The more advanced life forms are, the more they consider their own existence and advancement, and so are their attachments.

   As for the bottom of the population... Is there any point in wasting time and energy for those untouchables?

   In the eyes of many people, Anstein Island is a large deserted island, but in Zhu Peng's eyes, the seawater that surrounds this island is inexhaustible money.

   While sea ships sent slaves to the island in large numbers, Zhu Peng had found a suitable place to open up salt pans.

   may seem incredible to many people, but in the Middle Ages, salt and sugar were both scarce and expensive.

   The ancient Chinese salt merchants on the earth plane are rich and rich. The central government even specializes in salt and iron as a strategic material.

Because salt is a necessary product for the human body, lack of salt intake, people will gradually become weak, and disease will eventually lead to death. However, the main way to obtain salt on the mainland is through the naturally formed salt ponds. In short supply.

Zhu Peng bought enough slaves and quarried rocks on the Pingdao Island on Anstein Island. Large tracts of salt mining factories and salt pans were established. The stone slabs were made by stonemasons. After they were laid in the right place, Zhu Peng used fossils as mud. The spell of the slate is made into a material similar to the cement floor, and then a certain amount of seawater is introduced and then exposed to the sun. The seawater is not dry and the salt field is endless.

In particular, Zhu Peng also knows that the method of Zhonghe Filtration can easily make refined salt from rough sea salt. Perhaps the exclusive business of sun-dried salt cannot be done for long, because the technical content is too low, but the refined salt method only needs to be kept confidential. If it is in place, it will not be a problem to make this money for more than a hundred years.

   In fact, it is really difficult to use the high-level life forms of the immortal continent to spend money like this shoddy way?

It can be said that there is no difficulty at all, but those high-level life forms of Tier 4 and 5 are neither short of sugar nor salt, or even hardly short of money. Since there is no demand for this, then even wisdom is like a sea. , How can I move my mind in this direction.

What's more, the cross-professional thinking barrier seems to be so thin as a piece of paper that it can be broken with a single touch. In fact, it is so solid that most people cannot get rid of its shackles for a lifetime. This is the so-called thinking. The comfort zone is like an invisible steel barrier.

Because it’s completely done according to the scriptures and follow the classic development tutorials of the Bourne Sorcerer, the development of Anstein Island has begun to take shape in just two months, and sea boat fishing provides the slaves with meat supplements. , Even because of Zhu Peng's development of Anstein Island, even the originally remote small fishing village on this island gradually flourished.

It's not just salt factories, burning forests, planting crops and food, and animal husbandry, even if the income of these industries is not very high, but how can the lifeline of food be held in the hands of others, at least to ensure a minimum degree of self-sufficiency, This base will have a solid foundation.

  ……………………

   Time goes by quickly.

In just about half a year, the "Longbow Family" Victor clan has become famous for its refined white snow salt. If someone looks at the history of the Victor family's rise in the past six months, they will find that the arrangement of this family is like a tight gear. Like a pocket watch that does not lose time in the bite, every investment is made with all the effort, and then the benefits will be generated at the moment before the power is exhausted, and the new force will be regenerated.

A business family like   , of course, is like walking a tightrope to the extreme, but once the continuous success has made the expansion of the family power to the extreme.

Because we paid attention to limiting production from the beginning, we did not mass produce refined white snow salt, but sold it as a luxury product together with ordinary coarse bitter sea salt, so refined white snow salt was gradually being used as an upper-class luxury product and its value increased. . The final price is higher than that of gold, and it is impossible to use or even buy at the level of non-big nobles and sanctuary powerhouses.

At the same time, Victor also produces and sells a large number of salted fish for dumping. For civilians, this is a very cost-effective commodity. It is not expensive and easy to store. It is also salt and meat in one bite, which can be said to be extremely beneficial. people.

With the three products of refined white snow salt, coarse bitter sea salt and salted fish, the Victor family has completely penetrated the three social classes of the upper, middle and lower levels of the mainland. The refined white snow salt is aimed at the upper class, the salted fish is aimed at the middle class, and the coarse bitter sea salt is aimed at the bottom. The people, the whole family is making money every day because of this, and their power is rapidly expanding.

Because there is a large amount of income and profit, the family naturally does not have to squeeze those slaves to the death. It only took six months to select the most docile and hard-working to promote to the civilian class. Danny even selected one among the slaves that were continuously acquired. An infantry regiment of two hundred men.

Their love, family, property, and everything are on this thriving island, so the infantry regiment’s fighting will is very high. In addition, the lord Daxiu Victor is rich and never stingy. The infantry regiment’s equipment can even match the empire. The first-line legion was comparable. The first 25 veterans who followed were all mixed into the infantry regiment as non-commissioned officers, and as captains, most of them directly took their families to Anstein Island.

   On the one hand, it is indeed optimistic about the development prospects of Anstein Island and the Victor family, on the other hand, it is also making a silent but sincere allegiance to the lord.

   Six months after the Victor family settled on Anstein Island.

   wore a fine veil and walked onto the carriage and lay on her back between the pillows that were soft like clouds. Ilia only felt that she had had an extremely sweet dream in the past six months. So many times this girl did not dare to open her eyes. After worrying about a certain night of sleep, when she woke up again, she found that she was still the daughter of a small town prostitute, doing all kinds of heavy labor every day. Facing the icy, nominal father and his own icy mother.

   The cold and painful life of the past is entangled with the beautiful life at this moment, and the fifteen-year-old Ilia, who is tied like two pythons, can hardly breathe.

Now I eat the most delicious food every day, and I can read books that are purely entertaining. Even the most distinguished ladies and ladies dare not fail to maintain their decency and respect, because of their surnames: Victor, Ilia Victor , The second lady of the Longbow family.

"Ilia Victor... Ilia Victor." With her eyes closed, she read the name in a low voice. She has never hated her mother so much, but she has never loved her so much, because she owns Victor. Last name, but almost everyone knows that this last name does not actually belong to them.

Ilia is three years younger than Lisa. The life expectancy of people in this world is relatively long, and because the old Victor originally planned to squeeze the eldest daughter’s labor for a few more years, Lisa is 18 to 20 years old and she is still not married. people. At this moment, there is no need to rush to marry. With the passage of six months, the number of suitors is about to smash the threshold of Victor's house, and even the name of the heir to the earl has appeared.

However, my elder brother seems to spoil his sister too much. No matter how superior the conditions of the proposer are, as long as Lisa says he doesn’t like it, the elder brother will chase him away immediately... I want to Daxiu’s various intimacy and love for Lisa, Yi The flame in Leah's heart was about to ignite her.

   Although Daxiu’s brother Daxiu’s offer to each character is basically the same, Ilia knows that it’s different.

Only Lisa can disturb him at any time. Only Lisa can lose her temper for no reason but she is still spoiled by her brother. Only Lisa dared to secretly say to herself: "My brother has changed, my brother does not love me as much as before. ..."

  God, when Da Xiu went to St. Tantinbourg to study, you were only five or six years old. How could Da Xiu spoil you at that time? For you, not hesitate to offend a true earl?

   Almost everyone felt that Baron Victor’s love for his younger sister had reached the point where he could ask for it. He even offered a million gold coins to be his younger sister’s dowry. As long as anyone could laugh at her, she would love her.

Ilia knew very well that when she was going to marry, she would definitely not receive treatment like this. No, there was already a clear difference now. All the people who asked Lisa for marriage were real nobles, and they looked like herself. Please... the butler's son, a certain promising knight, and a bunch of Victor family members who suddenly appeared from nowhere.

   What’s even more terrifying is that both the old Victor and his own mother showed acquiescence or even approval. Those miscellaneous fish were compared with Da Xiu brother.

   got up and looked at himself in the bronze mirror in the carriage.

  The pure white skin, the black hair like that of Daxiu, the pretty face and the red lips, untie the veil on his body, and the astringent carcass is already extremely attractive.

   Ilia knew that she was beautiful, she inherited her mother's beauty, and beauty is a woman's greatest weapon.

"...Except for Brother Daxiu, I will not follow anyone, and I will not marry anyone." When the carriage slowly stopped and Ilia descended from the above paragraph, she became an extremely dignified perfection. Lady.

In terms of aristocratic manners, Lisa is far inferior to Ilia. In half a year, Ilia almost completed her ten-year study of becoming a noble lady with her self-abuse. In contrast, Lisa still often Will jump and play like a wild girl.

"Miss Ilia, the baron is discussing matters with Captain Planck and Mr. Danny, but he will allow you to go directly in after he knows of your arrival, but please try to keep quiet." The family steward in front of him is the old Victor once. Relatives with better names, although the relatives who were not seen when these families declined, and those who came up like flies when the family flourished, Illya still bowed decently. UU Reading www. uukanshu.com said that he understands.

The relationship between the big family and the vassal relatives itself is such a relationship. The Victor family’s family business is too large and all aspects of the staff are strained. It is beneficial to accept some vassal relatives appropriately, and these vassal relatives are treated relatively higher, although some people are because of this. Need to change name and surname.

   walked into the living room of the small castle, and soon there was a waiter serving a drink, and Ilia sipped gently with her dignified manner. From here, she could directly see her brother's office.

There is a long dark red table, and a young baron who does not look much older than Ilia herself is frowning in thought and listening carefully... This is of course her brother, who moved the entire undead empire with his superb management skills. Man, the man he loves to his bones.

   "Although I expected to have today, I didn't expect it to come so soon." Looking at the paperwork in hand, according to the secret report of the informant, the rise of Anstein Island has attracted the attention of several big pirates because of the huge commercial profits.

The sea is too vast and vast. It seems to be able to contain all the evils in this world. Therefore, the sea thieves are almost unscrupulous. How many years have been searched?

   At this moment, they stared at the Longbow family again. It is a pity that Zhu Peng thought of today when he was running Anstein Island. It was not only the power arrangement of the family itself, but even the pirates had already been inserted into the hands of some people.
