Chapter 93: The Cantharis Legion Wolf Pack
Mercenary Group evacuated Snake Head Town.
This was the news that Duke learned from the town. After being questioned by the security team, the team leader Tijuana took his men to refund the rent and left.
"The team members have committed such a crime. The credibility of the mercenary group has been lost. Tijuana can no longer survive and has no choice but to leave." Zina, who came to deliver the damaged spiritual card, said to Duke, "But you still have to leave when you go out. You have to be careful. I have dealt with Tijuana. This person is very vindictive."
Duke nodded: "I will be careful."
"Anyway, protect yourself. If you really encounter a problem that cannot be solved, you can come to me at the Broken Sword Station. Our Broken Sword not only accepts missions from the mercenary mission center, but also private missions. As a partner, I can give you a 30% discount on your missions." "
If I need it, I will."
"Goodbye then. , Little Boss Duke." Zina waved her hand, her tone much more polite than before.
Before, she only regarded Duke as a middleman with good luck, and her face was given to the accomplished card repairer behind Duke.
But seeing Duke's determination to kill in anger.
She couldn't help but take a high look at Duke, feeling that this spiritual apprentice might have a great future. They will not be like those shop owners in Sheshou Town who waste their time in one place, standing still, and eventually become no different from ordinary people.
To know.
Those who can open the spiritual sea are the lucky ones chosen by God.
But she also knows how difficult it is to be promoted from a spiritual apprentice to an arcane mage. She has opened the spiritual sea herself.
Now in his thirties, the arcane mage has no hope and can only struggle in the mercenary group.
Looking at the neat Physalis Blood Spirit Fruits in the farms on both sides of the road, Zina sighed with regret in her heart: "If you can be safe and sound, who would be willing to take risks in the forest, especially a fake 1st ring card like me? Warriors are all supported by arcane cards."
...
for several days.
Duke ventured into the forest south of the Snake Pan River many times, and every time he was fully prepared to fish for the wolf pack mercenary group.
However, no danger was encountered.
The wolf pack mercenary group left without a single mercenary.
"It's okay to leave, so as not to distract me from fishing." After confirming that the wolves were really gone, Duke relaxed and happily hunted in the forest.
In a flash, May is here.
The early-ripening parts of the first crop of Physalis Sanguine Fruit are ready to be picked. James Farm has sent many workers to various farms to pick the fruits.
The people at Little Duke Farm are also busy.
Because the winter wheat in the fifty acres of land has turned golden yellow and is about to welcome the harvest season. Sally contacted several farming teams and finally managed to make an appointment with one to harvest in early June. Then he went to contact the buyer non-stop.
Basically, the food produced by the farms in Sheshou Town will eventually be sold to the Black Snake family.
In their own fiefdom, the Black Snake family monopolized many businesses, including spiritual gold smelting, grain sales, air route transportation, etc.
"The purchase price of winter wheat has nearly doubled this year. Boss, this is good news." Sally said happily after returning to the farm.
"The population has increased dramatically, and the demand for food for humans and spiritual animals has increased greatly. In addition, prices have been rising again and again. How can food prices not rise?" "
Yes."
"I feel a little distressed now, so get rid of it Fifty acres of wheat." Duke looked at the other side of the farm where James' farm workers were picking Physalis Physalis Blood Spirit Fruits, and his heart inevitably ached, "By the way, you should pay attention to the price of Physalis Physalis Blood Spirit Fruits purchased by Snake Head Pagoda. Have you?"
"Sorry, I forgot."
"Forget it, the contract has been transferred. If you make money, James deserves to be rich." Duke shook his head and decided not to think about these chores anymore.
Wait until early June.
The farming team came to harvest wheat, and Little Duke's farm was busy. Large areas of wheat were harvested, and the seeds of Lingzhi wheat were also mixed in. There is no need to separate it. After the wheat is ground into flour, the quality will be much higher than that of ordinary wheat flour.
Bang, bang, bang.
The farming team had some tattered harvesting puppets running through the wheat fields, and then threw out bags of tied wheat one after another from behind.
Others used carts to transport the wheat back to the warehouse and pile it up.
In just two days, all fifty acres of wheat were harvested, with more than twenty tons of wheat, filling the farm's warehouse to the brim.
However, the wheat had not been piled in the warehouse for more than two days when the Black Snake family's big-ass transport truck drove into the Little Duke Farm.
Cart after cart the wheat was hauled away.
In the end, a total of 40 golden dragons fell into Duke's hands.
"Throwing aside the planting cost of 30 gold dragons, I earned 10 gold dragons... This is only half of the land. If the wheat in the other half of the land had not been shoveled, I would have made a net profit of 50 gold dragons!" Duke did a simple calculation. "Now the contract for selling this half of the land is 17 gold dragons, which is equivalent to a loss of 23 gold dragons!"
Just an order from the Black Snake family, his farm lost 23 gold dragons.
"Fortunately, we will still make money this year. This is the first year of running the farm, so I have to say that I made the right purchase!" Duke expressed satisfaction with his decision to rent the farm.
Not a lot of trouble, but a lot of money.
Sally led people to clean the warehouse and came over to ask: "Boss, the winter wheat has been harvested and sold. Are we going to plant corn next?" "Yes, plant corn!" The wheat planting cycle is only once a
year
. , it is already June, and sowing cannot be continued until October. The four-month gap in the middle is just enough to plant a crop of corn.
Just when Little Duke Farm was busy planting corn.
The acid cantharides that countless mercenary groups were looking forward to finally arrived in Sheshou Town, loaded with more than a dozen black centipede cars.
There are two airships in the sky as escorts.
After Duke got the news, like most people, he ran to the station early to guard, waiting for this 0-ring spiritual insect that touched the hearts of everyone in the town.
"Coming!"
Someone pointed to the sky.
In the clear sky to the east of Snakehead Town, two small black dots appeared. It soon became clear that they were two airships.
When the airship approached Sheshou Town, the painted text on it was also clearly seen.
"Bernoulli's Tower - Cockroach" and "Bernoulli's Tower - Gadfly", both airships belong to Bernoulli's Tower.
"Mage Bernoulli's Tower? Do any of you know who this is?"
"I don't know."
"I've never heard of it."
The onlookers couldn't recognize what kind of force Bernoulli's Mage Tower is.
Duke also couldn't recognize it. He had visited Shenjiao City many times and had never heard of the Bernoulli Mage Tower. "Maybe it's not the arcane mage in Shenjiao City." The airship landed slowly
.
At this time, on the ground route, a train of Black Centipede trains also arrived at the station, followed closely by another train of Black Centipede trains. There were a total of fourteen trains of Black Centipede trains, crowding the newly widened station.
There are many differences between these black centipede cars and the black centipede cars that carry people on the route.
The manned Black Centipede cars are much shorter, and each car has many windows, but these Black Centipede cars are not only longer, except for the first car that has windows, the other cars have no windows, and only some are equipped with stainless steel. The pores of the net.
Xilulu!
The Black Snake Family's patrol knights stationed at the station, followed by a large number of staff who quickly set up a welcoming banner.
"Warmly welcome the arrival of the Cantharis Army!"
"Sincerely welcome all the masters of Bernoulli Mage Tower to Snake Head Town!"
"The Black Snake Family pays tribute to the great Earth Arcane Mage Bernoulli Gu Control Scholar!"
