Global Advent: Apocalyptic Desert Island Game - Chapter 374
In the western part of the sky continent, a white cloud fell and slowly fell on the edge of a lake.
This is the periphery of Wucheng, more than 30 miles away from the tall city wall.
Beside the lake, many businessmen riding Warcraft are resting here.
Some Warcraft directly lie down by the lake to drink water to supplement the water consumed all the way.
Wucheng is located in the west of the sky continent. It is the central city here. Whether it is the booty obtained by hunting Warcraft in the north or the rich products in the south, it will choose to trade here.
Throughout the space continent, the area is too large. Generally, few caravans can directly transport Warcraft fur and sharp teeth and other resources from the north to the south.
Similarly, no caravan was willing to transport LingMi, tea, porcelain and other things directly from the south to the north.
The journey is too long, and the consumption of the caravan is too great.
And the temperature difference between the north and the south is great. The more you go to the north, the colder it is. Ordinary people need to constantly add cotton padded clothes.
Similarly, as the temperature gets hotter in the south, people from the north have nowhere to put their clothes. They can load several cars just to transport their own clothes.
Therefore, generally speaking, caravans like to transport materials to Wucheng, a relatively eclectic location.
Although Wucheng is subordinate to the western part of the sky continent, it can actually be regarded as the middle of the mainland.
There are not only wide roads leading to the cities, but also waterways extending in all directions.
In particular, there is a manually dug water transport, on which merchant ships shuttle constantly.
But now, there are fewer merchant ships, because the world is too chaotic.
In the past, although the magician union was hateful, after giving him enough benefits, he could still ensure the safety of water transport ships.
Since the magician trade union was overthrown, water transport has become a piece of fat.
The unprotected caravan could only drive along the river and could not avoid the robbers along the way.
Often a full cargo ship has been searched by robbers along the way before it has been transported to its destination.
After a long time, everyone will no longer take the waterway.
The caravan stationed by the river used to go by water.
Now, they have to pay higher prices and hire powerful magicians to follow their team.
The owner of the caravan is Zhang Qitong. He is in his fifties. He is a magician in his thirties.
There were about twenty people in the whole caravan, of which only a dozen were the servants of Zhang Qitong, and the other ten were the magician guards invited this time.
At any time, there will be corresponding transactions.
In peacetime, there is business in peacetime, and in troubled times, there is business in troubled times.
For example, these dozen magicians are from an organization called magic escort agency.
The boss of the magic escort agency is a level 88 magician named Ouyang Zhanhui. His combat effectiveness is fairly good. He can be regarded as an expert in ordinary cities.
He had a unique vision and soon found a huge interest chain, so he founded the demon escort agency to provide escort services.
In fact, it’s easier to make a fortune as a bandit these days, but Ouyang Zhanhui is very clear about his strength positioning. He knows he can’t be a real bandit.
If you want to truly stand on your own as king, your strength must reach at least level 95, otherwise it will be easily destroyed by others.
With his eighty-eight level strength, he created the demon escort agency, which is justifiable.
As long as the bandits along the way are well managed, the demon God escort agency can become prosperous.
Generally speaking, the bandit leaders everywhere are very powerful. No matter where the caravan passes, they have to peel off a layer of skin.
However, the strength of demon escort agency is good. If it is hard, it will not benefit anyone.
Therefore, everyone defaults to this operation mode.
Every time the demon escort agency passes by, hand in a small amount of money to buy the road, and you can pass smoothly.
The bandits got the money and didn’t bother to compete with a group of powerful forces. The two sides have always maintained a balance.
Gradually, the demon escort agency became famous on the whole caravan transportation line, and gradually gained reputation and face.
When the caravan employs the people of demon escort agency, it can really leave a lot of money, so the commodity exchange is in full swing again.
This time, Zhang Qitong’s caravan brought a lot of LingMi and tea from the south, including some private salt.
In the past, salt and iron were monopolized by the magician trade union, and ordinary magicians were not allowed to resell without permission.
Later, after the Lord of heaven was killed and the magician Trade Union collapsed, important resources such as salt and iron were controlled in the hands of major cities.
Everything belongs to the Lord.
However, the main city owners have limited management of their cities, and many of them have their own pockets.
Many senior members of the city secretly resell salt and iron.
For example, this part of Zhang Qitong’s private salt was washed from the hands of high-level personnel in a city.
There were ten carts in the caravan. All the eight carts in front were LingMi, and the two carts behind were loaded with tea.
Under the LingMi is the private salt hidden in it.
There are two bags of private salt hidden in each car. The value of these private salt is far more than all LingMi and tea.
Reselling private salt is a very profitable business. If the robbers along the way know it is this kind of business, they will not be satisfied with the money to buy the road.
“Boss, a bowl of herbal tea!”
Meng Hao came to a herbal tea stall by the lake and sat down. He whispered to an old man with dark skin.
Next, Meng Hao plans to enter the city with the caravan. First, he knows the personality of the city master of Wucheng, and then decide whether to attack him.
Meng Hao has almost explored all the way with the help of his powerful hearing. The city master of Wucheng has recently soared in strength, has just broken through to rank 98, and has become the first strong player in the western part of the sky continent.
At the same time, Wucheng under his jurisdiction is very rich and the surrounding cities yearn for it.
Therefore, when the city Lord of Wucheng broke through the 98th stage, he directly declared independence, and the city Lord’s houses of the surrounding cities came to vote one after another.
Without much war in the western region, peaceful reunification was achieved.
Meng Hao thinks that the Lord of Wucheng should not be a traitor and villain.
Meng Hao’s attitude towards different people is also different.
If the other party is really a good person, Meng Hao will take away the source of the world from the other party in another way.
Even though it is troublesome, Meng Hao thinks everything is worth it.
But Meng Hao was a little confused. He also got the power of the origin of the world. Why was the former Qingcheng city master a 100 level magician, while the Wucheng city master only had 98 levels?
You know, the real barrier that is difficult to cross is level 99. Level 98 magicians can easily reach even without the power of the source of the world.
Since he doesn’t understand, Meng Hao simply doesn’t think much anymore. Everything will be understood when he sees each other.
“My guest, try our Thousand Island Lake herbal tea, which is absolutely unique within a hundred miles!”
The dark skinned boss smiled and poured tea for Meng Hao. He found that the other party’s clothes were more expensive. He expected that he was also a rich businessman.
Of course, in the face of rich businessmen, tea stall owners do not have much awe.
After all, the world’s strong are respected. Although businessmen have great wealth, their strength is generally not very strong.
Right here, a big man on the table next door laughed, “boss Tang is fooling new people here again. There is only one tea stall for you within a hundred miles. You are not unique. Who is unique!”
Hearing the man’s words, the people couldn’t help laughing.
It can be seen that the big man is very familiar with the tea stall owner here.
Boss Si didn’t mind everyone’s dismantling, and immediately retorted, “you’re right, but our tea is all clear spring water from Qiandao Lake. Just say it’s good to drink.”
Hearing this, the people did not refute.
This Thousand Island Lake herbal tea is really better than the tea in other places. The key is to quench thirst and relieve summer heat.
Sometimes, people have the illusion that the tea here can cure hunger.
Hungry passers-by came here and ate dry food while drinking tea. Sometimes they drank more cups of tea when they were too thirsty, but they were surprised to find that they were not very hungry.
We just drank enough water and didn’t care too much.
But the tea is really delicious.
Hot tea is refreshing, and herbal tea is fresh and refreshing. When passing by, the caravans are willing to come and drink a few bowls before they go on their way.
Hearing that everyone respected the herbal tea here, Meng Hao was full of expectations for the tea here.
No matter how good the tea is, can it be comparable to your own enlightenment tea?
Meng Hao picked up the bowl of herbal tea, took a sip and tasted it.
It’s a little bitter at the beginning, but it returns to sweet soon. The fresh aroma reverberates between the mouth and nose. The tea seems very flexible and silky, with a soft feeling.
Meng Hao couldn’t help but brighten his eyes.
“Good water!”
Meng Hao also likes drinking tea at ordinary times and has a certain appreciation of the quality of tea.
He can clearly taste that the tea here is a popular product, which is no different from that in other cities, or even cheaper.
The point is, the water here is so delicious.
With Meng Hao’s powerful power, he can clearly feel that there is a trace of aura in the tea, which seems to be brought by the clear spring water here.
Meng Hao could not help but be surprised that there was such a miraculous spring water in the great heaven.
“Boss, help me make a pot of tea!”
While talking, Meng Hao took out a bamboo pot of tea from the storage ring and squeezed out three pieces of tea from it.
The dark skinned boss Tang grinned when he saw Meng Hao take out his tea.
“Hey, my guest, you are so particular about bringing your own tea. It seems that it must be good tea!”
“Good tea matches a good pot. I have a teapot that has been treasured for many years. It’s only used to make good tea!”
While talking, boss Tang took out a delicate purple clay pot from under the cabinet, quickly washed it with boiling water, and then put it on the table.
At the same time, the clear spring water in the iron pot has boiled, and the time is right.
Next to them, Zhang Qitong and others who had been resting here all showed curiosity.
“You say, is the tea that guy took out good tea? How much is it a kilo?”
“Who knows, but his tea is not as good as ours. We have tribute tea here.”
“That is, if the Lord of heaven had not been killed, we might never have a chance to drink tribute tea in our life.”
“Cut, it’s like you drank tribute tea. This thing is so expensive. How can you be willing to let you drink it?”
“Oh, what do you pretend to be? It’s the same as you’ve drunk.”
“Boss Zhang must have drunk tribute tea. How about it? What’s the taste? Is it good?”
“Why don’t you take out some tribute tea and compare it with each other, boss Zhang?”
“Yes, yes, it’s time for us to have a long experience after everyone has followed you around for so many years.”
“Right, right!”
There were many people in the caravan, which soon pushed Zhang Qitong to the forefront of the storm.
Zhang Qitong’s eyelids jump. It’s special. Just talk. Why do you involve me?
Is tribute tea something you kuha can drink?
However, Zhang Qi looked at Meng Hao’s figure with infinite wandering in his heart.
The other party is noble, handsome and extraordinary, just like a relegated fairy who doesn’t eat human fireworks.
Once upon a time, he was also a handsome young man.
But after so many years, the burden of life not only made his body fat, but also made his hair thinner and thinner.
Looking at each other’s elegant temperament, Zhang Qitong wanted to shout. I was also very handsome when I was young!
“OK, just compare with him!”
While talking, Zhang Qitong suddenly got up and said to boss Tang with dark skin, “boss Tang, wait a minute. I also have good tea here. Compare it and see who’s better.”
While talking, Zhang Qitong winked at the guys around him.
The man immediately showed great joy, and then rushed to the ninth carriage happily. After a toss, he took out a huge white porcelain pot.
From the porcelain pot, the man took out another small porcelain pot.
This small porcelain pot is only the size of a palm. It is tightly sealed with oil paper. It seems that there is a treasure in it.
The young man happily took the small porcelain pot and put it in front of Zhang Qitong.
Zhang Qitong’s eyes were dignified, carefully opened the sealed oily paper, and then squeezed out three pieces of tea.
No more. These three pieces of tea are worth more than 100 crystal coins. It’s also necessary to control the cost.
So the waiter sent the resealed tea back, and Zhang Qitong handed the three pieces of tea to boss Tang.
“Ah, it’s actually a tribute from the past. Great!”
Boss Tang is a tea lover. When you look at the leaves of tea, you can conclude that this is the legendary tribute tea.
Fortunately, now that the Lord of heaven has fallen and a new Lord of heaven has not appeared, these good things that used to be Tribute can finally flow into the homes of ordinary people.
Boss Tang looked at Meng Hao’s tea and thought it was ordinary.
Looking at Zhang Qitong’s tribute tea, I suddenly had a decision in my heart.
“Sir, I’m sorry. Let’s try boss Zhang’s tribute tea first!”
Boss Tang said apologetically.
After all, Meng Hao put forward this request first. Although he wanted to taste the tribute tea, he knew it was impolite.
Meng Hao smiled indifferently and said, “well, try his tea first and then mine.”
With that, Meng Hao put the enlightenment tea on a clean tea plate.
I just hope you don’t fly when you smell the aroma of Wudao tea.
