75 It’s Better to Teach Someone to Fish
....After signing a contract with the seven lords, Wang Xiao bade farewell from the Lord’s Shop. In any case, he was not interested in the new goods. Even if he stayed, it would be a waste of time.
After returning to the trading market, Wang Xiao found Ma Yunle again.
As soon as the two of them met, Wang Xiao directly transferred a million star coins. “Before tomorrow night, help me buy some building materials and 20,000 people!”
“One… one million?!”
After Ma Yunle saw it clearly, he immediately exclaimed and looked at Wang Xiao with shock. “Brother, you’ve only left for a while. Where did you get so much money? Don’t tell me you went to rob the City Lord Manor?”
“Screw you!”
Wang Xiao rolled his eyes and transferred another million star coins over. “Help me buy high-quality ores with this one million star coins. No matter what kind they are, buy as many as you can!”
Although the [Black Gold Ore] was basically a no-cost business, who would dislike earning more money?
The 500,000 yuan deposit those people paid was only the value of the Black Gold Ore. As for how much Wang Xiao earned with this 500,000 yuan in a week, that would be based on his own ability.
Ma Yunle sniffled and already felt a little breathless.
After taking four to five breaths, Ma Yunle finally moved his eyes away from the long string of numbers. He gritted his teeth and said against his conscience, “Brother, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I’m just a broker. I’ve never done a business worth millions of star coins!”
“It’s fine. There’s always a first time!”
Wang Xiao chuckled and patted Ma Yunle’s shoulder. He said seriously, “This is only an appetizer. If you do well, I still have a big business to hand over to you!”
This was what Wang Xiao had just thought of.
Although he could earn money very quickly with his ability, his dream was not to be a rich businessman. Therefore, in order to save time and energy in doing business, he had to find someone to deal with these trivial matters for him.
Originally, the person Wang Xiao thought highly of was Lin Xiang, but the other party was a branch shop owner of the Lord’s Shop. With his current strength and status, it was very difficult for him to persuade the other party to jump ship.
Although Ma Yunle had the habit of being greedy for small gains, he was diligent and had a good reputation. With some nurturing, he might be able to take charge in the future.
However, Wang Xiao would not tell Ma Yunle this. Only when the other party did not know anything could he see a person’s true ability. This 2 million was a test he gave the other party.
After giving a few simple instructions, Wang Xiao got Ma Yunle to quickly take action while he left the trading market and returned to the hospital.
As soon as he entered the ward and took off the [Nirvana Mask], Zhou Xiruo knocked on the door and walked in. Although she had already rested, her face was still filled with unconcealable fatigue.
Seeing this, Wang Xiao immediately felt a little guilty. “You don’t look too good. Do you want to rest for a while more?”
“That won’t be necessary.”
Zhou Xiruo waved her hand and took out an invitation made of black crystal. “Fang Tianyu came just now. This is the invitation to the banquet, but you weren’t around, so she asked me to pass it to you.”
“Thank you very much.”
Wang Xiao thanked him and took the invitation. After thinking for a moment, he opened the trading column and transferred one million star coins to Zhou Xiruo.
Seeing the long string of numbers, Zhou Xiruo’s eyes instantly widened. “Where did you get so much money? Where did you rob this time?”
“Can you guys stop treating me like a bandit?”
Wang Xiao rolled his eyes angrily and explained with a straight face, “This is the money I earned from selling resources. You’re my vassal lord, so I definitely won’t treat you badly.”
When she heard that it was money from selling resources, Zhou Xiruo calmed down slightly. Although it had long become normal for lords to attack each other, they had just advanced to level three lords after all. It was really not appropriate for them to make too many enemies.
“Then I’ll accept it. Coincidentally, I’ve been building a city recently and have consumed a lot of materials.”
Zhou Xiruo did not hesitate and directly accepted it. Then, she looked at Wang Xiao and urged, “I still have some things to pack. You should pack up quickly. The doctor said that we can be discharged.”
Wang Xiao nodded in agreement, and Zhou Xiruo returned to her ward.
Not long after, the two of them packed their luggage. When they were about to be discharged, Wang Xiao could not help but be surrounded again. Fortunately, he found an opportunity to put on the [Nirvana Mask] and successfully left the hospital.
After parting with Zhou Xiruo, Wang Xiao returned home alone. Although he had only left for more than a week, he felt as if he had not returned for a long time.
After getting some simple food to fill his stomach, Wang Xiao entered his territory.
The two city-states had already been completed, and more than half of the obstructing mountain range had been devoured by the [Metal Devouring Ant].
The minerals in the mountain had all been refined and scattered on the ground, shining like stars. The impurities had transformed into soft soil. This was also the best soil to plant spirit grass.
After a simple inspection, Wang Xiao divided the population card into two and threw them into two city-states.
The population cards with more than 20,000 people fell into the city like rain. The moment they touched the ground, a white light flashed and they transformed into thin human figures.
[Civilians]
[Bronze Quality Level 1]
[Take on simple labor. After leveling up, they can learn craftsman skills.]
With Wang Xiao’s order, more than 20,000 people immediately ran to the vicinity of the mountain range and began to collect the various ores scattered on the ground. Then, they transported the ores back to the city and stored in a special place.
At this point, Wang Xiao did not even need to personally collect the ores. The Black Gold Ore had also completely become a no-cost business.
Just like the bronze level one [Metal Devouring Ant], although the individual abilities of these civilians were insignificant, they could still unleash a lot of strength with more than 20,000 people.
In just more than ten minutes, Wang Xiao had already harvested tens of thousands of units of ores. However, the production of the [Black Gold Ore] was lower than he had expected. Currently, he had only collected four units. He still had to collect four more before he could deliver them.
However, there was still a week before the promised date of delivery. Wang Xiao was not in a hurry. After a simple inventory check, he took out the beast egg Chen Jinrong had given him.
Now, Wang Xiao still had five pits. However, he had nine beast eggs. He had to consider which mutated beasts to hatch first.
After checking everything, Wang Xiao realized that Chen Jinrong had put in a lot of effort into this “gift.”
Among the ten beast eggs, six were combat-type mutated beasts. Moreover, their attributes were not the same. There was even a [platinum quality] beast egg.
However, what he needed now was not a combat mutated beast, so he placed it aside first.
Other than the [Metal Devouring Ant], there were also two defensive mutated beasts and one support-type mutated beast.
That support mutated beast was a gold-quality [Bright Moon Merman]. Like the [Metal Devouring Ant], it did not have any combat skills.
However, the body fluid secreted by the [Bright Moon Merman] was called [Mermaid Tears] and was the best nourishment for the spirit grass.
A drop of [Mermaid Tears] could accelerate the growth of ten units of spiritual grass. Even if Wang Xiao had no intention of planting spiritual grass on a large scale, the [Mermaid Tears] would still be a popular item on the market!
“It’s better to teach someone to fish than to give them fish. Commander Chen is giving me two chickens with golden eggs!”
Wang Xiao muttered excitedly. Suddenly, he felt that Chen Jinrong was not so annoying anymore.
