Tower Defense Game: My Eternal Kingdom

Chapter 161 Market Opening

The information sent by Zhang Yao also mentioned a lot, and the information about the two cursed objects, the Wish Doll and the Wish Thousand Paper Crane, is worth noting.

Especially the latter.

Cheng Shen was very interested in exchanging.

The price of praying for the thousand paper cranes is to randomly devour an organ of the wisher, which may be the internal organs, brain, facial features and other important organs, which will directly kill the person, but it may also be parts such as the appendix and tonsils.

no doubt.

The probability of the former is definitely higher.

After all, the effect of this cursed object is full of malice. Even if the scope of the wish is specified, it may cause various accidents.

Disasters outweigh gains.

This is absolutely true.

However, for the vast majority of survivors, using this cursed item does not require them to take risks in person... Whether it is recruited or enslaved, they can use this item instead of survivors!
therefore.

No matter how effective it is.

This kind of cursed object, on the contrary, can be expected to arouse a wide popularity in the circle of survivors...

Zhang Yao's situation is special, he can't recruit any units until he unlocks the control of that castle.

This is also one of the reasons why Cheng Shen was born to exchange ideas.

He inspected the three cursed objects he held, and the parchment scrolls could be eliminated directly.

Cheng Shen deeply doubted that this cursed object could be used at most once.

Moreover, the next time it is used, it will definitely cause the two corpses with the fusion of three strange characteristics to lose control.

It made him even terrified to crack that seal rune now.

The Blade of Exorcising Spirits...

Cheng Shen was reluctant.

He can ignore the negative effects of this cursed object directly, there is no cursed object more suitable for him to use, and the Exorcist Blade is his only offensive cursed object, which is equivalent to his hole card.

Think about it.

The only thing he can exchange is the Candle of the Stars.

But before that, he had to deal with the three weirdos suppressed in the territory.

"After studying the magic circle in the gargoyle ruins, the rune knowledge I have should be enough to make artificial cursed objects...however, how to resist the erosion of dark energy is still a problem."

Cheng Shen thought about it.

He intends to look for opportunities at tomorrow's trade fair to see if anyone sells such props or equipment.

of course.

He wants to release the news first tonight.

Zhang Yao's adventure is still going on. On the premise that he can still use the meat cleaver, I hope he can explore a few more areas smoothly.

It would be nice to find more journals.

Cheng Shen mentioned to him the suspected source of the curse, the "door".

very interested.

……

The deep night is like an oil painting rendered with monotonous black paint splashes of ink. The territory under the night has gradually changed from being busy and noisy to being silent.

late at night.

Most of the working farmers and the workers who have completed their job transfers have already fallen asleep. Only two teams of guards who have just changed their guards are still patrolling the territory dutifully, making dull and depressing sounds of armor clashing as they walk.

Around the territory.

Eight sentry towers have been erected at the suggestion of Amy, the affairs manager.

These sentry towers have no special attributes, but can provide the guards with a wider field of vision.

Although, the range that can be seen in the dark night is extremely limited.

But in case of an enemy attack, at least it can serve as a timely warning.

It's a pity that the scout guard was still trapped in the magic circle and couldn't be found. Cheng Shen didn't want to go out to take risks at night.Fortunately, the spiritual link with the scout guard has not been broken, ensuring that it is in a safe position.

Not in a hurry.

hum!
A crimson vortex suddenly lit up in the territory, and Cheng Shen walked out with four iron-blooded soldiers.

He is preparing more merchandise for sale at tomorrow's fair.

Simultaneously.

You can also upgrade the level of newly recruited iron-blooded soldiers by the way.

One dungeon, three bosses, and nearly 8 mobs, can get about 9 to [-] experience points without counting the level difference.

The five units are divided equally.

A unit below level 2 can be upgraded to level 3~[-] at a time, and a unit above level [-] can also guarantee the speed of level [-] in a copy.

Extremely efficient.

The teams led by Cheng Shen or Arjieka, respectively, can basically keep the progress of a dungeon at about 7 minutes.

This is also because the main time is spent on the road.

but.

This leveling method consumes too much energy for the two of them.

Moreover, after level [-], the two of them would no longer be able to gain experience from dungeons, and the explosion rate would be reduced to a certain extent.

and so.

After Cheng Shen led the team a few times, he formed the formation with three [-]th-level iron-blooded soldiers and two recruits, and asked them to level up on their own.

such a configuration.

It takes about 10 minutes to clear a copy.

The Pollution Library can open up to ten dungeon maps at the same time, and the upgrade efficiency is still very impressive.

one night.

Cheng Shen recruited a total of [-] iron-blooded soldiers, all of whom had reached level [-] or above.

This is a rather perverted number...

You know, even the third-ranked Hei Niu who challenged him at the beginning didn't have such a large number of excellent units!
It is no exaggeration to say.

Just relying on these [-] excellent units can sweep most of the survivors at this stage, and even the forces including the Chaos Lord!

At this point.

Cheng Shen's investment in training soldiers can be temporarily stopped.

It's not that he doesn't want to recruit more soldiers.

But after the establishment of professional trade unions and the improvement of territorial order, the guards also need to pay wages.

And their salaries will rise with their grades.

A level 3 iron-blooded soldier, not counting the investment in equipment, just paid them a salary of [-] gold a week!
Fifty soldiers.

Cheng Shen will pay 150 gold coins a week!
Can't afford to expand...

of course.

If the equipment and materials produced by the dungeon can be successfully sold in the trade market, or his progress in exploring the surrounding areas has encountered obstacles.

This matter is of course discussed elsewhere.

……

Boom boom boom!
With the hard work of more than a dozen carpenters, a wooden pile and a piece of wood were quickly built into a small building covering an area of ​​nearly [-] meters.

Many farmers are also busy.

In the originally empty trade market, wooden and stone structures soon rose up. Exchanges, arenas, taverns, and pre-built rental shops occupied most of the trade market.

Cheng Shen changed his mind.

No more recreational facilities were built.

It was because other survivors were more enthusiastic about investing than he expected.

Originally, he expected to build [-] shops first, which would be enough.

But before the opening, Huorong, the club's management, gave him a list.

All of the above are investors who intend to rent his shops at high prices.

There were as many as hundreds of people.

The business plans they submitted were even more diverse, which made Cheng Shen deeply feel that his previous thinking was not broad enough.

For example, one of the survivors submitted a plan to open a monster girl shop in his market...

This survivor gained the ability to sign a slavery contract with monsters through a job change.

And he can also trade the contracted monsters to other people.

Coincidentally, after changing jobs, this survivor encountered a wave of forest goblins attacking the city.

Ok.

It's the kind of forest elf with a particularly good figure...

There are many similar plans. After going through countless trials, the survival ideas of the survivors who have survived until now are clear enough.

Cheng Shen simply let go of this authority.

Let them run free.

He only needs to master the two main income industries of exchanges and arenas to earn enough.

And another business to be in his hands is the tavern.

The tavern is a specific building, and it also involves the rarity of randomly recruited units, so it must be put into operation.

speak up.

No special characters were recruited in the tavern for the past two days.

On the contrary, the grocery store that refreshes every day brought Cheng Shen an unexpected surprise last night.

【pasture】

【level one】

[Level: Excellent]

【Level: 1】

[Effect: Designate an area as a pasture, where wild beasts can be randomly refreshed, including but not limited to (pigs, cows, sheep, horses, hares...) The wild beasts will change to a certain extent according to different environments]

[Characteristic: The probability of refreshing high-quality beasts +15%]

……

Cheng Shen has never found any living creatures in the forest, and his meat sources are all from siege monsters, but the harvest is severely limited by the types of monsters, and the meat of many monsters is inedible.

But now, with this blueprint of the ranch, Cheng Shen saw the hope of raising and breeding meat animals by himself.

Guarantee this one.

It can solve a major source of food for the territory.

With the grain and vegetables produced by hundreds of farmlands, Cheng Shen is already self-sufficient in terms of food.

Not only that.

There are also sheep in the ranch, which can produce wool and make warm clothes.

And horses!
It can train war horses and train cavalry!

Although Cheng Shen's forest environment is not suitable for him to train cavalry, it does not prevent him from selling it.If a ranch can be managed properly, the income it brings him will at least not be weaker than that of the copy!
But the problem he faces is,
There is no grassland.

The beasts spawned in the ranch will change according to the surrounding environment.

Cheng Shen demarcated the pasture within the range of the forest, and it was doomed that it could only breed wild beasts suitable for forest survival.

Can horses be spawned in the forest?
a bit hanging...

Specifically, Cheng Shen can only verify it after a 24-hour refresh cycle.

He just hopes that nothing weird will be refreshed...

Time came to noon.

everything's ready.

Except for the fact that the arena cannot be officially put into operation today due to the lack of gladiators, all other facilities have been built.

Cheng Shen checked it carefully again.

Make sure the settings are correct.

Then open the permissions.

The community members who had already been notified immediately arrived in the trade market through the teleportation node he opened.

Swish!Swish!Swish!
White light flashed one after another.

Figures with different costumes appeared on the empty streets of the market. They were men and women, standing densely, their bodies shrouded in a layer of faint light, like virtual projections, many of them overlapped.

Countless faces meet.

Cheng Shen suddenly felt a little dazed, as if he had returned to the shopping mall in the real world, and it was also like a holiday tourist attraction.

Too many people.

There are a total of thousands of club members, and at least half of them came to participate in the transaction!
Fortunately, the rules in the trade market are special, which means that countless spaces overlap with each other.

The number of people that can be accommodated is theoretically close to unlimited.

Otherwise, a serious stampede will occur the moment it is opened.

"This is the boss's territory?"

"Damn it, Sheng Jing! I didn't expect to see so many living people! Why do I suddenly feel like I can die without regrets!"

"It seems like a lifetime away..."

"Who am I, where am I, I can't see the way!"

"You can't see the way? I can't even see where I am!"

"Is there a possibility that you are too short?"

"Fart! I'm 192!"

"Hey, don't squeeze! My waist has been squeezed out! Lose money!!"

"Who's ass is hitting my face... No, this is..."

"rogue!!!"

"..."

The noise and yelling sounded like a big wave, and it was so messy that people couldn't hear the communication with each other. After a brief daze, Cheng Shen immediately realized his lack of experience, and hurriedly opened the authority management list.

"Set the maximum number of people who can display the same screen: 30!"

Swish!
The figure in front of him suddenly decreased rapidly, as if being erased one by one by an eraser.

In a blink of an eye, there were dozens of figures left on the entire street.

It still seemed a little deserted.

But these figures will change into different appearances every second. In fact, the number of people has not decreased, but under the influence of the system, the number of people that each person can see at the same time is only [-], and there will be no crowding.

and.

Conversations that everyone can hear are only heard by the corresponding group of people.

"Everyone be quiet!"

Cheng Shen then spoke through the system authority.

"If you want to communicate alone, you can enter the other party's name in the channel settings, apply for a team, and you can see the other party's figure at any time!"

"If you want to apply for a store lease, come to my left to sign up!"

"If you want to apply for a stall transaction, you only need to choose a location on an open space that does not hinder movement, and you can pay the handling fee and start the transaction!"

"All transactions are guaranteed by the system, absolutely safe and reliable!"

"And, all the items traded in this market can get the corresponding amount of points, and the points can be exchanged for special prizes!
Notice!In order to ensure that all transactions are fair and effective, malicious point swiping is strictly prohibited in this market!

Once discovered, it will be expelled from the market immediately!Never enter! "

"My fair will be officially held in half an hour!"

"Everyone is free to visit now!"

"..."

On Cheng Shen's left, Eugene, who is round and smiling all the time, has set up a simple service counter.

of course.

Signing a rental contract is much simpler here.

All terms are handled by the system, and the contract can be formed directly, even the step of signing can be omitted.

In order to attract businessmen to settle in for a long time, Cheng Shen made obvious concessions in commercial tax.

Including, he opened the exchange half an hour later is also one of the conditions of the contract, which gave them enough time to run their own business.

Faced with such generous treatment, except for a few people, there are basically no additional conditions to negotiate.

The shops were quickly rented out.
