"Then I'll have to trouble Brother Zheng Yu to make a few more trips. The people in Runyu City are all trustworthy," Zhu Minglang said.
Runyu City was really rich.
On the way here, someone from Runyu City had sent a letter over, saying that they had already exchanged some of the annual profits for gold and silver. In a few days, it would be under the name of the City Lord, Zhu Minglang's bank.
There were four million gold, just enough to make up for the large sum of money he had just spent.
As for the money that Zhu Men had transferred, Zhu Minglang had no intention of returning it.
In any case, he had saved the Tranquil Fire Liquid for Zhu Men. What was wrong with taking his own money?
Even though the young elder who had given him the money had an ugly expression … …
"By next year, I guarantee that our profits will increase by five times. We can even train a dragon general army to make the restless countries around us behave, so that they won't affect our trade routes. The countries around the Taiga Lands are extremely ignorant and pedantic. Their people are suffering unspeakably, but their rulers are still building large amounts of land and trees, wantonly collecting taxes and conscripting soldiers, "Zheng Yu said.
"Yes, yes, I'll leave it to you. When it comes to governance, I only trust you, Zheng Yu," Zhu Minglang nodded.
Zheng Yu glanced at Zhu Minglang from the corner of his eyes. After a while, he said, "Brother Zhu, from your tone, it seems that you're planning to be a hands-off shopkeeper? Her Highness is expanding her territory like trimming her own backyard. I just came back from Runyu City. The grassland city-states to the west of Rui Country are all part of our country's map. As the country's assistant, if I don't look at the map for three days, I won't even know where my country's borders are! "
"Capable people do more work, capable people do more work. With Brother Zheng's talent and wisdom, it would be a waste of your talent if you don't manage a vast universe of stars and ten thousand worlds!" Zhu Minglang said.
"Sigh, maybe it's my fault for being too narrow-minded. I can't keep up with you and Her Highness. By the way, Brother Zhu, why are you in such a hurry to find me?" Zheng Yu sighed, looking like he had accepted his fate.
Zhu Minglang handed the letter with the Nihility Crystal written on it to Zheng Yu.
Zheng Yu read it once and tried to recall it.
"It seems like there really is something like this. It looks like a little beehive. When we were clearing this underground tunnel, we were attacked by some underground monsters. So they were guarding this so-called Nihility Crystal," Zheng Yu said.
"This item is very important to me." Zhu Minglang smiled.
"It should be in the Wasteland. If Brother Zhu is in a hurry, you can come with me," said Zheng Yu.
"You should rest for a while. There's no rush," Zhu Minglang said.
…
Although Zheng Yu said that he was going to take a break, he still sorted out the documents from Dynasty's imperial court and the investigation in Runyu City and presented them to Li Yunzi.
The next morning, Zhu Minglang and Zheng Yu left for the Wasteland.
In the past, it would take at least one or two days to travel from Ancestral Dragon City State to the Wasteland. Now, with the Heaven Fiend Dragon, it only took a meal's time. The Heaven Fiend Dragon flew slowly.
After passing through Sunrise City, the Wasteland was completely different from before.
In the process of mining the mineral veins, the Wasteland gradually became rich. Under the influence of the Time Wave of the Gonglong Gate, the land was also verdant. It was very different from the barren land of the past. Now, many people no longer deliberately separated Li Chuan from the Wasteland. The Dong Sun City of the past was just a city to stay in.
The people lived and worked in peace. After the Wasteland experienced poverty and disaster, the people of the Wasteland were more hardworking than the people of other places. After the resources became rich, every city, town, river, and village were built more exquisitely than some small countries in the Extreme Court Continent.
The Nine Cities of the Wasteland were now the size of a city. Along the way, they saw many caravans transporting mines. Of course, under the influence of the Time Wave, they could often see the figures of the Extreme Court Continent cultivators.
"It should be at the Scorpion Mine. I remember it being used as an exorcism item," said Zheng Yu.
They arrived at a purple mine mountain. It was about two hundred miles away from Everlasting City. It was closer to Mulberry Town, where Zhu Minglang used to live.
Zhu Minglang still had some impression of this mountain. When it was difficult to raise silkworms in the winter, Zhu Minglang had followed the people of the town to explore this mountain. However, the people of the town were a little clumsy. They did not recognize the purple mine, which was as valuable as gold.
The value of Purple Ore was very high. When it was calcined into Purple Rock, it was one of the favorite indoor tiles of the nobles. As for Purple Iron and Purple Silver, they were perfect materials for forging weapons and armor. As for Purple Crystal, there was no need to even mention it. It was a rather expensive and rare spiritual resource. It was a treasured collection of certain Dragon Monarchs and Dragon Kings!
"Haha, it really is here. Looks like we mortals are really clumsy. We actually put such a treasure here as an ornament." Zheng Yu laughed and walked towards the Nihility Crystal.
"Don't touch it! We bought it. We have already paid a high price to the mine owner. The carriage transporting the gold will be here soon. "A man in a black robe came up and said in an unpleasant tone.
"What mine owner? Where did the mine owner come from?" Zheng Yu asked with a confused face.
"Uncle Wang, there's no need to be so harsh on them. Just give them a bag of gold and send them away." At that moment, a man with a black fan came over.
Although the young man with the black fan had a much gentler tone, his words were not pleasant to the ears.
Saying that, the servant called Uncle Wang came forward and threw the bag of gold on the ground unwillingly. He meant that if they wanted to take it, they had to bend down and pick it up.
Zheng Yu naturally did not pick it up. However, the actions of these two people showed that they did not treat him as an outsider. This purple mine belonged to the Barren Land. Every rock on the mountain was the private property of the Lichuan Kingdom. Since when did these people have the right to order them around?
"May I ask who you are?" Zheng Yu was a gentle person. He asked.
"We are from the Hidden Rock Sect." The servant called Uncle Wang said. As he said that, he saw Zhu Minglang walk up to the Nihility Crystal. He took the Nihility Crystal as if there was no one around and put it into his box.
This action made the Wang Family slave extremely angry. He fiercely roared, "Brat, don't be ungrateful. I already told you that this thing belongs to us now. Do you really want me to break your arms and legs?!"
As he spoke, Uncle Wang waved his hand, and several people wearing black robes appeared around him. Their cultivation levels were not low. No wonder they acted so arrogantly in the Wasteland Purple Mine.
"Everyone, this is Her Highness' territory. This mine is also Her Highness' territory. If you want to fight here, don't blame us for being impolite!" Zheng Yu said with a dark expression.
With a wave of his hand, the Wasteland guards who were guarding the mine quickly gathered around.
