Chapter 20 Are there other lords nearby?
"What? Do you like it very much?" Zhang Lu looked at Ye Qi, who looked eager, and placed a little wolf in front of her with a smile.
"It's the first time I've seen a Warcraft cub. I'm a little curious." Ye Qi took the little wolf cub and said in a panic. She didn't expect Zhang Lu to notice the look in her eyes.
"Then I'll leave these little wolves in your care. You can take care of them yourself or find someone to take care of them, but you have to raise them up and teach them to be loyal to our territory."
"Yes! We must complete the Lord's mission!" Ye Qi saluted Zhang Lu. She was in charge of some things. Those people brought back from the water village listened to her, so naturally there would be no shortage of manpower.
"Go ahead and call Ju Ming."
Zhang Lu only stayed in the lord's cabin for a while, and Zhu Ming came back with Ye Qi.
"Ju Ming, look at this bag of seeds." Zhang Lu placed the seeds of sweet elephant grass in front of him.
"Lord, what kind of seed is this?" Zhu Ming showed doubts. There was a shortage of various seed territories, so why did he be called here specifically.
"Sweet Elephant Grass!"
"Sweet Elephant Grass?" Ju Ming searched the memory in his mind and made sure that he had never heard of this kind of grass: "Excuse me, Lord, what is this Sweet Elephant Grass?"
"Sweet elephant grass is a kind of forage that grows very fast and reproduces very quickly. Do you have any ideas?"
Zhu Ming understood when he heard the forage. Zhang Lu wanted to ask him where it would be better to build a horse ranch, although there were no cavalry or stallions in their territory.
"Lord, the forest area across the river in the south of the territory is vast. We can cut down a plain to build a new horse farm."
"There is also news about stallions. The head of Shuizhai also had the idea of forming a cavalry before. In the human city a day away from here, merchants occasionally pass by, and the caravans will have stallions for sale. An ordinary stallion only costs 200 units of silver. That’s fine, but high-level stallions are more expensive. A first-level stallion requires 3 units of gold, and a second-level stallion costs 10 units of gold.”
After saying this, Zhu Ming handed over to Zhang Lu and stood aside. He knew that he was just making suggestions and Zhang Lu was the one who made the decision.
"Yes, that's good. Then let them go to designated locations when mining wood. It's useless for us to ask for a stallion that is not as good as the first-class stallion. We can't afford a first-class stallion. Where can we get gold?"
It takes a thousand silvers to exchange for one gold, and he only has enough money to buy a second-level stallion! Stallions cannot breed with themselves.
Let's see if we can get the gold needed to buy stallions through trading during this time. Zhang Lu motioned to Ju Ming to go about his own business, and then looked at the trading desk next to him.
Zhang Lu put all the materials harvested this time on the market. As long as he didn't need them, he would sell them all in exchange for stones, iron ore, or gold and silver.
As soon as he hung up the material on his front foot, the private channel on his back foot lit up.
"Damn it, boss, did you go and destroy a level 3 monster nest? Why are there so many materials for level 1 and level 2 monsters as well as materials for level 3?"
The lord who had not sent a message in the regional channel for nearly a day came out again, and it was not known where he had been that day.
"I finally helped the boss build the leather armor and gloves. The boss will check them out. I'll go to the transaction page to see what materials I want."
Zhang Lu's trading desk lit up, and two sets of leather armors appeared on the desk, along with two pairs of gloves.
【Snake scale armor】
[Level 3 Leather Armor]
[Can effectively defend against attacks at level 2 and below]
"Ye Qi, call Tu Xingsun and Long Yi."
Tu Xingsun summoned the short iron rod he brought with him, and Long Yi used the long sword whisk. They both lacked defensive equipment.
Although Long Yi had a Taoist robe, this leather armor was close-fitting, and wearing it under the Taoist robe did not affect his movements.
When both of them came over, Zhang Lu handed the leather armor to the two of them respectively. The two people who received the leather armor happily tried them on and found that they fit well.
However, the regional channel became lively again because of the material posted by Zhang Luxin.
"Another pile of materials."
"Level 3 material, I'm jealous."
"Boss, can you take me with you!"
"Help! My territory is surrounded by vampires, and all the soldiers are dead. I am hiding outside alone and can't get in. The territory may be destroyed once the protection period expires. Help me!"
Suddenly, a message sent by one person caused the entire regional channel to become silent instantly.
News of help are not uncommon in this world, but everyone is new to the world of lords, who can be saved? Moreover, who can guarantee that he will not be next? Every time this kind of news appears, everyone can only sigh in silence.
"I'm at coordinates 2785 and 2715. I also have a special building drawing with me - a logging cabin, which can greatly improve the logging efficiency of residents who have been transformed into lumberjacks!"
"As long as there is a territory willing to take me in, I am willing to hand over this drawing!"
This news caught Zhang Lu's attention. First of all, he really needed to improve the efficiency of logging. Secondly, the coordinates reported by the man were very close to his.
In other words, this person's territory is most likely surrounded by vampires from the castle, but he just happened to be out when the territory was surrounded, and now he can't go back.
As soon as the time comes and the protection period expires, his territory will be destroyed!
Lords who have lost their territory will not be able to continue to improve their strength, and it is extremely difficult to obtain territory. They must rely on their own means to obtain new territories and residents from the indigenous people.
Zhang Lu was also debating whether to save people or not. He really wanted the drawings and information about the vampires, but he was also afraid that he would be discovered by vampires in the past and take over his territory.
Until he saw Tu Xingsun who was trying on leather armor on his side.
No matter how powerful those vampires are, they can't be higher than level five. Tu Xingsun's earth movement can travel thousands of miles every day, and he can appear and disappear. Even if he is discovered when he goes to save someone, he can escape quickly using his earth movement.
Thinking of this, he sent a private channel connection request to the person who asked for help before. As soon as he sent it, the person there immediately agreed.
"Hello, are you near me? Can you save me? But I can't give you the drawings first, the transaction must be in person!"
A lord without a territory is very weak and can be said to be dead. No one will join him at this time. Basically, they want to defraud him of the blueprint, so he must ask others to take him away first. He was willing to trade the drawings only after he was rescued.
Zhang Lu didn't say much, it was just a transaction, he just sent one sentence: "Try to stay away from your territory, find a place to hide, and then send me the coordinates. I will send someone to rescue you after the game is over!"
"Really? Thank you, boss!"
Zhang Lu closed the channel after sending the message. The game was about to start. If the person still died during the game, it could only be said to be fate.
At this time, the "god" also sent a message to all the lords in this group!
