Lord of the People: I rely on cheating for hegemony

Chapter 165 Preparing to Sail
In Yi Village, Qu Mao still commanded Sir Mrak to go out hunting with a team of high-level fighters every day, and he would not waste the opportunity to summon A Ke or Xiang Yu to increase the cheat value.

However, Mingang Village is busy day and night, and sailors and freemen are constantly being hired, including Maffei Trani and his little friends who have been converted to freemen, and the village entrusted by Mingang Village to build them for them. Tier 10 dwellings, and each person is allocated [-] units of poor-quality cultivated land.

In fact, Su Yan's preferential treatment to them is not limited to these. After becoming a free citizen, Su Yan continued to hire them to carry materials from the civilian dock to the sea ship, and the salary was higher than when she was a leader.

In fact, Yi Village and Fisherman Village are continuing to use horse-drawn carts to transport animal skins and blank rune stones to Mingang Village. The final statistics surprised everyone. The number is as many as 32.3.

This means that after Qu Mao came to Yi Island, he has killed at least 32.3 beasts so far. Thanks to the fact that the beasts on Yi Island are refreshed at fixed points, if it is under the laws of nature, the beasts on Yi Island may have been killed long ago. extinct.

Of course, the specifications of the 32.3 pieces of animal skins are not uniform. There are rabbit skins, wolf skins, tiger skins, leopard skins, deer skins, bear skins, and elephant skins. Almost all the beasts on Yi Island have been killed.

In addition, there are 15 units of blank rune stones, which were extracted by Su Yan from the warehouse of the territory, and all were transported to the small village of Mingang by horse-drawn carriage, and then hired by the leaders to transport them to sea ships.

It's not that the current five heroes in Yi Island in the territory of Yi Village don't have the conditions to use backpacks to carry blank rune stones, the main reason is that Su Yan insists on using a carriage.

Because it costs some money to hire carriages, coachmen, and porters, but it can coincide with Su Yan's ongoing action of converting people from citizens to free people. Opportunities are always more attractive than going back and digging 10 units of poor-quality arable land.

Counting Su Yan's income from selling explosives and props for several consecutive days, the number of gold coins in Yicun's territorial account finally exceeded 328, so Qu Mao did not force himself to open all or part of the [-] treasure chests before departure , Wait until the cheating points are accumulated enough in the future, and then open another wave.

The speed at which the cheating value has been raised has not been fast recently, which is also the core reason why Qu Mao has been reluctant to open the treasure chest.

The current cheating value is not enough to change the quality of all the items in the treasure chests, so it is better not to open them.

As for the materials to be shipped, it is not clear whether Qu Mao will be able to sell them at that time, and even the price is not very clear.

Qu Mao can only refer to the prices in the product catalog provided by Lai Dima. For example, after Lai Dima discounts various rune stones for himself, they are basically 16 silver coins per unit, so the selling price of blank rune stones must be within this range. within the price.

If it can be sold for 10 silver coins per unit, then 15 units of blank rune stones can also be sold for 1.5 gold. After Qu Mao came to this world, he has never seen gold coins with a unit of [-].

As for the 32.3 animal skins, Qu Mao thought silently, if he could sell them at an average price of 8 silver coins each, he would be able to earn almost 2.5 gold coins, adding up to a total of 4 gold coins. I have all the gold coins, and even have some spare money to pay back Su Yan's money.

The candidates have already been determined. The first wave of Qu Mao himself, Sunan, Maffei Trani and his friends will bring 4000 gold coins. In fact, Qu Mao also has more than 500 gold coins in his personal backpack, which is equivalent to saying There will be a total of 4500 gold coins.

These gold coins are mainly used to purchase female and male citizens, and other materials needed by the Yi Village territory. Of course, in order to confirm the identity of the noble caravan of the Mughal Empire, it may be necessary to prepare a small amount of gold coins to purchase some sea salt and other materials.

The 32.3 animal skins are not all the animal skins in the territory of Yi Village, because the early residents basically distributed two animal skins as quilts, and after buying daily necessities, Qu Mao did not recycle them and send them out. of animal skins.

In addition, even though the small village of Mingang was busy day and night, the hunting activities in the territory of Yi Village continued, and besides, Chafidel's hunting activities on the outlying islands also did not stop.

Besides, it will take at least three to five days to go to Yancheng and back. During this time, Sir Mrak, Wang Ping, and Zhao Pan will still hunt on Yidao. A team hunts dozens or even hundreds of animals a day. There is no problem with wild beasts. If it is not possible, hunting the Elephant Valley once a day will do.

The corpses of wild beasts that are killed will naturally be decomposed by the system to obtain animal meat and complete animal hides.It is equivalent to at least several hundred units of perfect animal skins entering the account every day.

Qu Mao handed over all the 4000 gold coins that Su Yan had withdrawn from Yi Village's territorial account to Sunan, which made Sunan feel uneasy and insisted that Qu Mao put away the 3000 gold coins in his backpack.

Su Yan told Qu Mao that the handing over of 4000 gold coins to Sunan was controlled by the system. If Qu Mao put it in his backpack, the system would default to the lord's transfer between accounts in the territory and would not be monitored by the system.

But Sunan refused to hold 4000 gold coins, so Qu Mao had no choice but to give Sunan only 1000 gold coins, and put the rest in his backpack.

After all, Jack Twain, the coastal defense battalion commander of Yancheng Port, still needs to get some gold coins. It is impossible for Sunan to have no gold coins at all.

Qu Mao and Sunan each took a copy of the purchase list that Su Yan issued. In the future, Su Qiaoer's second wave will also take a copy.

After all, it takes nearly four months to go back and forth to Yancheng once, and the materials needed should be purchased as soon as possible. For example, the candles purchased by Qu Mao last time did not last for four months.

During the entire preparation time for departure, Qu Mao will not only go to the forest outside Yi Village to summon A Ke and Xiang Yu to brush up cheating points, but also patrol the small fishermen's village and Mingang village.

The salt farm in the small fisherman's village has been able to produce sea salt stably, but it is impossible to bring the sea salt to Yancheng for sale. Yancheng itself is famous for producing sea salt, and the sea salt from Yi Village's territory will definitely not be sold in Yancheng.

Even in order to prove his identity as an aristocratic businessman of the Mughal Empire, Qu Mao had to purchase some sea salt from Yancheng Port every time.

Next time, I must ask Lai Dima to purchase a few more sea-going ships, so that every five sea-going ships will go to Yancheng every other week. As long as there are enough sea-going ships, it means that we can barely establish a periodic connection with Yancheng. up.

Of course, Qu Mao also knew that he could not completely rely on Yancheng, and he had to find a way to open routes to other cities, otherwise, no matter how easy the other conditions were, the Yicun territory would not be able to develop.
