I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 763 - 547: Lücao Trading Market

Chapter 763 -547: Lücao Trading Market

Right after, at dusk, yet again there was civilization arriving here!

They were small creatures with green skin, less than 1.3 meters tall, with eyes like green beans, very cunning.

They looked ugly, full of muscles, holding daggers in their hands, draped with the pelts of some unknown beasts.

“Hey, isn’t this the Goblin Chief, Brendan Digging Graves? How come he’s captured too?” The lizard man sneered as he greeted him.

The Goblin clan does not have a good reputation on this land because they love robbery and have attacked many small gatherings.

The Goblin clan has survived until now because of their strong cold resistance and excellent survival skills, they can even survive by eating feces.

Moreover, these guys have their own communication network, and the rampant spread of news in the Northern Territory is largely due to the goblin clan’s big mouth broadcasting everywhere.

The guy named “Brendan Digging Graves” growled a few times with bared teeth and then fell silent—holding his Worm King, emitting a terrifying and sinister aura.

In that instant, his pores tightened, as if falling into an icy hell, his entire body froze.

The cunning goblin clan, submit to the strong, choose to remain silent.

“Don’t bully our distant friends, let them enter the conference room.” Lu Yuan’s voice came from afar.

Old Lu was also confused, so many races arriving in the same day, each requiring hospitality, that kind of work is really boring!

“Ahem, would this friend please introduce yourself, where are you from?”

“Brendan Digging Graves” was taken inside, as obedient as a baby.

A few goblin engineers followed him, trembling. Thankfully, the goblin clan also has talent, and stammeringly started to introduce themselves…

…

“Even the goblin clan has negotiation capital… They don’t even develop technology, just roam around cities.” The lizard men were somewhat surprised seeing this.

“Seems like Green Grass City doesn’t pick trade partners, aiming to build a good reputation.”

Reputation is useless to the weak.

But for the strong, it can effectively reduce governance costs.

“Don’t underestimate the goblin clan; being able to survive until now, they’re not easy to deal with. I guess they’ll sell their resources at a good price.”

“I think they’ll buy solar panels and live like nobles.”

“It’s said there’s rampant internal comparison among them. These goblins love to show off and can’t control their big mouths, thus causing information to spread chaotically.” freewebnσvel.cøm

…

The lizard men can make rational judgments.

But on the Wulan Clan side, the tension grew within.

Being human seemed increasingly cheap.

“Two races visited in one day. Even the goblin clan was entertained.”

“Won’t there be more in the future?”

They didn’t even know what they were nervous about; maybe it’s the lack of privileges for humans that’s causing a bit of annoyance.

Or perhaps, had they pleased the “Greedy Demon God” initially, maybe conditions would be better now… thinking about it made them even more annoyed.

What to do?

Such a huge golden opportunity, yet unable to seize it, made everyone sweat with anxiety.

No chance at all, not even a tiny bit!

Everyone was nervously pacing, sweating on their foreheads.

“Should we abandon some old ideas?” Suddenly Great Scholar Constantine thought of something, lowered his voice, “Since Green Grass City is almost certainly going to be a famous trading center in the Northern Territory, can’t we, the nearby human cities, benefit from it?”

The answer was affirmative.

A prosperous city will certainly radiate influence to nearby areas.

Even if it’s just helping with transport, one can make a fortune.

Or opening bars, casinos, various service industries can all be profitable.

“No, no, it’s still several days’ journey even if nearby.” The City Lord said with a sullen face, “Who would want to ride horses for days just to drink in our place? You’re really dreaming.”

“No, I think Green Grass City needs to change its geographical location if it wants to conduct large business.” The Great Scholar stroked his chin.

“The area where Green Grass City is located is not in a geothermal belt. Although it doesn’t lack energy, it doesn’t seem afraid of cold waves.”

“But distant guests are afraid. If they travel thousands of miles and encounter extreme cold waves along the way, all freezing to death, it’s bad for reputation…”

“Seems like it.” Everyone nodded, remembering how they almost froze to death when they came.

This damn place has poor geographical conditions, not even a hot spring.

Isn’t this where half the guests will die along the way?

The Great Scholar continued: “Moreover, the foundation under Green Grass City is ice, with no minerals at all. They said they need all kinds of minerals, whatever they can get.”

“You mean…”

He licked his dry lips: “Forty miles south of our city is a not-so-bad mine, there’s also a large plain and a lake nearby, why not give that mine to them, after all it’s just some bauxite we won’t use.”

“Give it to them? Just like that?!”

“Yes! Just like that! Chief, are you really reluctant?”

City Lord Ta Gang felt a shock, hesitating, truly reluctant.
