Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard Chapter 372

Talking about it, Zong Shen took Luna to a housekeeper who was on standby on the fourth floor.

Let the butler take them to find Baron Bezos.

Vereesa knocked on the doors of the Immortal Lancers one by one.

Tell them all to get up and prepare to gather.

Under the leadership of the butler, Zong Shen and Luna descended to the first floor.

Walked straight out of the castle.

Just outside the castle, on the edge of the tower on the left.

There is a neat row of gardening shrubs and flower beds.

At this time, Baron Bezos was holding a pair of pruning shears, focusing on pruning the bushes.

He stretched out the tips of the branches and stems and leaves to make the shrubs look flatter.

For Baron Bezos, gardening is a good way of self-cultivation.

He can obtain spiritual satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment by pruning these branches and leaves.

When Zong Shen and the others walked in, Baron Bezos also noticed.

He actively stopped the movement in his hand and jumped flexibly from the one-meter-high herringbone ladder.

After all, this wall of gardening shrubs is so tall that it needs a pair of herringbone ladders to get it.

"Brother Zong Shen, are you awake?"

"Is the room environment bad?"

"Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Baron Bezos, dressed in casual clothes, leaned the pruning shears against the herringbone ladder.

Reached out and patted the branches and broken leaves on the clothes, and walked towards Zong Shen and the others.

With a smile on his face, Zong Shen first expressed his gratitude to Baron Bezos.

"You are so kind."

"The rooms in the castle are in good condition."

"We only need a few hours of sleep."

"Leaving time for sleep is a waste of life."

Hearing Zong Shen's words, Baron Bezos suddenly let out a hearty laugh.

"Hahaha, Brother Zong Shen is right."

"Young people should move around more often."

"I will let them prepare breakfast and it will be done soon."

Baron Bezos was in a good mood, smiled and waved to the butler.

But Zong Shen stopped him.

"My lord, don't bother."

"We are going to Bangcheng for a tour in a while."

"In two or three hours, I have to go to Evans' manor for an appointment."

Zong Shen is ready to take everyone to taste the snacks in Bangcheng after a while.

By the way, you have to see what special products are worth buying in Bosbon.

At this time, Howie needs to go out.

Since coming to Bosbon, Howie has been silent.

The same was true even in the dinner party, he got together with the soldiers, almost speechless.

Because of his previous experience, it seemed that he had some prejudice against the nobles in the kingdom.

Zong Shen didn't force Howe to do this either.

It is enough for Baron Bezos to contact him personally here.

This meeting was still very successful. Basically, Bezos was responsive to Zong Shen's request.

"All right, dear brother Zong Shen."

"By the way, the documents regarding the property in the Shangcheng District are already being processed."

"In addition, I ordered the more than 400 refugees to start focusing."

"It takes about 5 to 6 days to gather on the road..."

"It's not easy for so many people to want to migrate."

"If you ride a carriage, you need at least dozens of them."

"Unless there is a terrestrial animal cart."

"We can only use the bullock cart second best."

Baron Bezos gave an account of what was agreed yesterday.

Obviously, he took Zong Shen's affairs to his heart.

Zong Shen bowed slightly to Baron Bezos, expressing his gratitude.

"My lord will bother you."

"I have one more thing I want to ask your lord today."

When he said this, he himself felt a little embarrassed.

But in this matter, Zong Shen did not intend to continue to prostitute Baron Bezos.

He came with dinar, friendship returned to friendship, business returned to business.

A smile appeared on Baron Bezos's face again.

"Brother Zong Shen speak directly."

"As long as I can help, I will definitely not shirk it."

He didn't think so much, what Zong Shen asked for was drizzle to him.

This is true whether it is the property or the more than 400 refugees.

Even Zong Shen is willing to accept the refugees and indirectly solve a small problem for him.

The only thing that made Baron Bezos a little distressed was the Bangcheng flag.

The banner is a magic item he invited the magic craftsman in the giant city to create.

A total of three aspects have been created, and the money spent will not be mentioned for the time being. The implications are very significant.

These flags represent Bosbon's expansion and experimentation.

In addition to the development of the state city itself, these Bosbans also established two large settlements.

One of the two settlements is east of Bosbon and the other is south of Bosbon.

The population size has reached the level of tens of thousands.

This territorial flag was hoisted in every settlement.

The last remaining side was given to Zong Shen by him.

It can be said that Baron Bezos still placed great expectations on Zong Shen.

Hearing him say this, Zong Shen no longer twitched and polite.

"My lord, I am going to purchase a batch of cold-proof supplies."

"Including jackets, magic equipment for heating, and even sheepskins."

"In addition, I need to purchase a batch of storage-resistant food."

"Includes jerky, sausages, bacon, cheese and all kinds of dry food."

"If it is possible, I hope I can purchase a batch of Bosbon's military rations."

"You can just sell this batch of materials to me at the market price."

Zong Shen said bluntly.

The current food reserves in the territory are still quite sufficient.

It can be eaten by everyone in the territory, including kobolds, for several months.

These include materials collected by Mariel from Sitano Village, and materials returned by Iron Pillar from Dinan Village.

There are also the rations collected at the secret material point of the Disaster Raven Church.

However, after the arrival of winter, food will definitely become in short supply.

The details of the new challenge are not yet known, but if the new challenge also restricts the actions of the lords, a large part of the lords will definitely be in a state of running out of food.

Especially at this stage, most lords cannot be self-sufficient.

Basically, they rely on hunting out or buying from the aborigines and market purchases to meet the demand for food.

Aboriginal power is an important and stable source of food for lords.

Once the new challenge begins, the possibility of interruption cannot be ruled out.

Therefore, it is necessary to store as much food as possible.

Moreover, the territory now has a Frost Raven version of the ice cellar, which can greatly extend the food shelf life.

Even if you don't need it during the new challenge period, you can still use it as your territory's food reserves.

In this way, even if there are more people in the territory, they can deal with it calmly.

When Baron Bezos heard the words, he lowered his head and thought for a while.

"Cold Warming Supplies"

"These should be relatively few."

"But I think there should still be some in the warehouse."

"As for food, it's a good solution."

"It's okay if you want military rations."

"I can provide you with 12,000 rations."

"But these military rations are not that delicious. In order to extend the storage period, they have almost no water."

"Each ration consists of a portion of dried meat and a portion of bread."

"As for other ordinary foods, this is easy to purchase."

"I'll make arrangements for the specifics in a while."

"The list will be sorted out after noon."

"As for the price, don't worry about it."

"Because this is the stock of Bangcheng, I will pay for it personally to avoid losing money."

Baron Bezos thought for a while before speaking.

12,000 rations are not a small amount, according to one ration for one meal.

In terms of three meals a day, it can meet the consumption of an army of two thousand people for two full days.

If you save a little, you can eat two meals a day, or cook the jerky and noodles into a paste, and you can eat it longer.

"Great Master Bezos."

"Then this is up to you."

"You have helped me a lot."

"I will bear these materials myself."

After hearing Zong Shen's words, Baron Bezos did not answer, but just smiled.

"These are not big things."

"I have deployed a squadron of the Bangcheng army and light riders."

"They will patrol the streets near Evans Manor in small groups."

"This one is a magic whistle, a simple gadget."

"Please sound it when you are in danger."

"The Bangcheng army outside can receive the signal."

"They will rush into the manor in a few minutes."

Bezos took out a silver-white round-tube magic whistle and handed it to Zong Shen.

Zong Shen took the magic whistle and nodded solemnly.

At this time, the Immortal Lancers and Howie were awakened by Vereesa.

All dressed up and gathered outside the castle.

Baron Bezos asked the butler to notify the servants to bring the mount from the stable.

The two chatted briefly again, and when the Bajie, Panthers and the Andalusian war horses were all brought over, Zong Shen and Baron Bezos said goodbye.

After seeing Zong Shen, Ba Jie ran over excitedly and arched the back of Gong Zong Shen's hand with his big nose.

Just after everyone got on the mount, they just walked a few steps.

The voice of Baron Bezos rang from behind.

"Brother Zong Shen"

"How long are you going to stay in Bangcheng?"

Zong Shen turned around when he heard the words.

"I have to leave before 0 o'clock tonight."

"The settlement needs me."

I saw a look of regret on the face of Baron Bezos.

"That's really a shame."

"I received the message that my eldest son Hadlow will return to Bangcheng early tomorrow morning."

"Two days ago, the Giant City Crusade Army sent Dragonhawk Knights to ask for help."

"He took the Bangcheng light rider to Odor Village to support."

"He is slightly older than you, and I think you might be able to become good friends."

Zong Shen also pretended to be Bosbon's support team before, and heard Bezos say so at this time.

There will inevitably be some guilty conscience in my heart.

He nodded again and said in a regretful tone.

"That's a shame."

"I will definitely come to visit Mr. Hadlow if I have a chance in the future."

"I believe we must be able to talk very well."

"Master Bezos, time is precious now, I will come to you after the appointment is over at noon."

Zong Shen waved his hand at Bezos, then rode on Bajie and led his soldiers towards the entrance and exit of the central area.

Baron Bezos didn't say much, and after the same waved his hand, he watched Zong Shen and the others leave.

Begin to order the housekeeper to deal with the material matters.

When Zong Shen and the others left the central area.

He chose a random direction and walked into the street closest to them.

The whole street is densely packed with pedestrians.

In order to avoid being discovered by other lords, Zong Shen replaced his externally displayed name data with Ma Huateng 19888.

This is a temporary modification made by the strategy module with a little bit of authority.

It can only be used to confuse other lords, but cannot actually change the name information.

They wandered all the way down the street.

From time to time, enter the shops along the street to see what they are selling, or inquire about the news from the roadside vendors.

The entire state city has ample supplies, and it has almost become a material gathering and distributing point nearby.

Tourists from all over the world will prioritize Bangcheng as the main location for dumping specialty products.

And Bosibang itself does not have any special products, and the only rare thing that can be counted is cowhide products.

They used a special treatment process to increase the toughness of the cowhide and make it less prone to cracking.

Leather water bladders, belts, leather jackets, etc. made by this process are more durable.

In the words of the lord, the durability is better.

Unfortunately, this is useless.

This special product does not have much advantage, and cowhide products can be produced independently almost anywhere.

The application of cowhide has a long history for the aborigines.

The difference between them is the difference in durability.

Just this advantage is not enough to make this product bring huge profits.

In addition, Bosibang has no special products to take out.

In terms of agricultural and sideline products, apples and an unknown melon are grown here.

The farmland is mainly wheat, and there are no special crops.

So far, everything in Bosbon's trip has gone smoothly.

The air trade plan alone lacks a breakthrough.

In fact, Zong Shen had another idea before that.

That is to use the market to purchase special products from other regions from the lord.

But this plan has reliable lords to participate.

And there must be suitable specialties near the opponent's territory.

Zong Shen listed it as an alternative, and now Bosbon has no valuable commodities.

Then his eyes should also be placed in the market.

In the recent market, some lords still sell some regional specialties.

For example, there is a special kind of spider living in some forests in the western hills of the mainland.

The silk web produced by this spider is very tough and light.

Unlike spider web monsters, the silk webs of these spiders are resistant to flames.

The underwear woven with this kind of silk thread is not only beautiful but also very close to the body and breathable.

It was sought after by the nobles.

There are many more things like this.

Many lords in exchange for as many resources as possible.

Basically put everything that can be listed on the market.

After they walked several streets in a row.

Zong Shen basically gave up on Bosbon.

He casually found a neat and clean snack bar.

Put all the mounts on the side of the road, and led the soldiers into the snack bar.

There were a dozen people sitting on three long tables.

The owner walked over graciously and handed over the rudimentary menu.

Zong Shen picked up the menu and glanced at it.

The above are basically ordinary snacks for civilians.

The status of such a snack bar in Bangcheng is basically the same as the yellow braised chicken rice, Lanzhou ramen, and Shaxian snacks in the earth.

"Here are sixteen beef patties."

"Sixteen butter pastries, and sixteen cups of milk."

Zong Shen said casually, the shop owner nodded and went back to prepare.

These are all interesting dishes that Zong Shen can see at a glance.

There are also some things such as karbread, porta noodles, midada batter and so on.

Zong Shen directly chose to ignore it, for fear of choosing some dark food.

While everyone was waiting for the snacks to be on the table, Howie, who had been taciturn, finally spoke.

He took the initiative to say to Zong Shen.

"My lord, after my observation, Bosbon has plenty of supplies."

"Those basic materials cannot be sold here."

"There are no special products worth selling here."

"We should consider other aspects."

Zong Shen raised his head to look at Howie, and nodded nonchalantly.

He stretched out a knuckle and tapped on the tabletop gently.

"Then tell me your opinion."

"I am willing to listen."

Howie stroked his head and began to slowly express his thoughts.

"First of all, Bosbon does not have any specialties."

"But it is still a well-developed state city."

"Whether it is the scale or the flow of people."

"This gives it enough economic value."

"Yesterday Baron Bezos gave you a shop, and we can use it."

"There is still a backlog of equipment in the territory, and Uncle Dwarf can also steadily forge excellent equipment."

"Including the Moon God Spring, these materials are useful to the lords, but also useful to the mercenaries and free armed forces."

"We can open a store specializing in weapons, equipment and combat supplies!"

Howie said very seriously, this was the result of his long thoughts.

Zong Shen didn't answer, but beat the table with his knuckles rhythmically.

Upon seeing this, Howie quickly added.

"In addition, there are idle primary pharmacies in the territory."

"The books that Mariel keeps contain an introduction to pharmacy. We can train one or more pharmacist apprentices."

"Pharmaceuticals are also in short supply in Bangcheng, even for beginners."

"Pharmaceuticals and equipment are all profitable commodities, and in a sense they are all consumables."

"With these two items, we can gain a firm foothold in Bosbon and open up sales."

After listening to Howie patiently, Zong Shen deliberated silently for a while.

There is no problem with his idea, and his idea is correct.

Since it is impossible to use Bosibang to make money, then just directly Zheng Bosibang's money!

"Your idea is very good."

"But you have to wait until a hundred-kilometer-level space teleportation array is established."

"At that time, you will be able to quickly travel between the territory and Bosbon."

Zong Shen praised Howie to restore some self-confidence.

Facts have proved that any plan on paper is not as reliable as an on-site inspection.

At this moment, a little boy in rags walked into the entrance of the snack.

This little boy should be between ten years old.

The childishness on his face has not faded, and there is a faint fluff on the lips.

With a straw basket in his hand, he went straight to the shopkeeper who was busy by the stove at the door.

"Hello"

"I want to trade you some beef patties with this basket of wild fruits."

"My mother is seriously ill and her stomach can no longer digest wild fruits"

The little boy said to the shopkeeper timidly.

The shopkeeper raised his head, but just glanced at the little boy and waved impatiently.

Bosbon has not only nobles and wealthy businessmen, but also many commoners and poor people.

The wealth of materials can never belong to everyone.

Most of the wealth is in the hands of a few people.

People like little boys are not a minority in Bangcheng.

"Go go, this is not where you should be."

"Damn little beggar, how can these wild fruits of unknown origin be exchanged for beef patties."

The shopkeeper waved patiently.

He also wants to make a living. Although his behavior is a bit rough, he is more sad.

Although Baron Bezos devoted a lot of effort to the development of Bosbon.

But he can't change this status quo, that is, people standing in the clouds cannot see the scenery on the corner.

The little boy knelt directly on the ground with tears in his eyes. UU reading www.uukａnshu.cóm

However, the owner was still unmoved.

At this time, Zong Shen waved to him.

"Hey, kid."

"Show me your wild fruits."

Upon hearing this, the little boy hurriedly got up, reached out his hand and wiped his tears, and walked quickly towards Zong Shen.

Holding the straw basket in both hands, Zong Shen could see the wild fruits inside.

The basket contains red fruits the size of thumb knots.

It looks unremarkable, and there are only ordinary wild fruits in the guide.

This kind of thing is really nothing unusual, and it is not enough to exchange for beef patties.

However, Zong Shen still accepted the basket.

Rubbing his fingers, he took out a 100 dinar.

With a flick of his thumb, he threw it at the little boy.

The little boy quickly caught the precious dinar with both hands.

Spreading his palms, his tearful eyes suddenly opened wide.

"Thank you for your generosity!"

"I will praise you and pray for you!"

The little boy bowed and saluted Zong Shen.

This one is enough to buy a lot of food.

Zong Shen just smiled and waved his hand indifferently.

For him, this can only be regarded as doing a good thing casually.

His mentality has gradually become open-minded.

As long as I feel comfortable, these are all drizzle.

The little boy stood there and bowed repeatedly, just as he was about to leave.

Just two steps away, he seemed to remember something.

He digs repeatedly in his dirty pants pockets.

Take out a crystal clear bead.

This bead was the size of a quail egg, and there was a trace of electric light shining inside.

Zong Shen stared at the bead when he saw the information prompted by the strategy.

Suddenly his eyes lit up!
