Chapter 169 empty beast
Yang couldn't help laughing at the crystal screen handed to him by Wolford. The creativity of this thing came from him. At that time, in order to facilitate the operation of Alchemy One in the abyss, he used the concept of tablet computers on Earth. However, the appearance was similar and the operating principles inside were completely different. Earth science took the path of mechanization to electronicization. There were large machinery here in Jiujie, but the driving and operation were completely realized by spells. Yang is still thinking about making steam engines, so don't expect to develop computer chips. The principle of this thing is similar to the magic curtain technology mastered by the Dandelion Chamber of Commerce. However, Yang added touch sliding and other functions on it, which felt like a tablet.
I saw Wolford's fingers slid on the crystal screen, and what caught his eyes was a pattern of a house. "Everyone said, this year, you have been blessed with your blessings to make a fortune. The picture of you fighting with someone outside and using a firearm has been edited. The effect is very good after the advertisement is broadcast. The number of orders placed by various countries has not been completed in several years. If you want to continue to make a fortune, it depends on your brother. You have traveled thousands of miles to study at Miner. As a landlord, we can't bring other gifts to you. It's okay to give you a house. I see that there are many women around you, so I'm embarrassed to take them and my classmates to squeeze into the school dormitory, right?"
Yang couldn't help laughing when he heard this. This was a pure bribe. Of course he knew their intention to give gifts. The arms business was profitable and it naturally attracted the covetousness of many people. If it weren't for the Dandelion Chamber of Commerce's great family and his identity was kept secret, I was afraid that the secret spies from various countries would have found him, the weapon designer.
However, there is only a thousand days to be a thief but not a thousand days to prevent thieves. In the future, Yang's identity was exposed. In addition to abnormal kidnapping and abducting methods, it is impossible to prevent the news in the future. Other chambers of commerce will take legitimate commercial means to poach people at high salaries. After dealing with Yang, the Dandelion Chamber of Commerce felt that this young man still values friendship and is not hard-working. So he wanted to use soft methods to win over him. Let Walford be the leader of the arms department. Now, sending a house to make friends with him, he will definitely make more money in the future. Therefore, the leader of the chamber of commerce did not hesitate to personally welcome him, and gave gifts to his mansions with big money, all in order to hold him back.
Yang was not pretentious, and he didn't refuse to take the crystal screen and looked at the house given to him by the arms department. He got a lot of benefits from the Dandelion Chamber of Commerce, and his cooperation was very pleasant. He did not pretend to be noble even if he deliberately made friends with him. He still retained the mark of Liu Jie, the rich second generation on earth, in his soul. Although he is a playboy, as a successor to the enterprise, he has also been instilled with a lot of business knowledge. Although Yang is not interested in doing business, he is not unfamiliar with the means of business social engagements. He just cried with the senior executives of the Chamber of Commerce, without any awkwardness at all.
Although Walford and his friends' actions to deliver the house seemed a little simpler, Yang obviously prefers this direct way of showing goodwill than his betrayal. He is now interested in everything that can get a lot of gold coins. Scientific alchemy requires strong financial resources to support it!
Walford said that they jointly gave Yang a house worth one million gold coins. During the banquet just now, Walford and others talked about the housing prices in Miner City. Due to the strong financial resources of the four major commercial alliances, the prices of the city-states under their jurisdiction are much higher than those in the mainland. As the capital, Miner City is even more expensive, and million-dollar mansions can only be considered average here. With Yang's money-making speed, although this may have been astronomical for him a year ago, now it is indeed a big gift for him who is rich, but it is not too much. Yang has no psychological burden to accept it.
He put his finger on the crystal screen and quickly selected several houses, and then gave them to Xing and the others to see. As a result, everyone all took a fancy to one of the largest houses. Because the picture shows that this house is not so much a castle as a large manor, which is so large that it can leap and gallop inside. It takes more than half a day to run from one end of the manor to the other. In this city of Miner, where every inch of land is valuable, this is too rare.
And the price is incredibly low, it only costs about one million gold coins. It is said that a house in the "Black Tornado" building in the school costs one million, which is about the same price in the city center villa much smaller than the owner's building. Although the manor is in the suburbs, the price of the building itself is generally more than one million. Moreover, including such a large manor, Yang really can't see why this large manor located in the suburbs is so cheap. However, with the power of the Dandelion Chamber of Commerce, it is impossible to tell such lies, so he asked Wolford about the details of the manor with interest.
Yang and the others chose this manor not only because it is big and grand, and it is very respectful to show off, but based on actual needs. Yang is interested in the fact that it is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and most of the alchemy experiments are dangerous, especially his gunpowder weapons are even more powerful. If the experiment fails, it will be far away from people and will be affected very little.
Xing and Su Ze met the manor at first sight because the spacious space here can be used as a martial arts training ground. When they practice boxing and foot skills, the two women's violent attacks have never been serious. What if the place is too small and hurt their neighbors? Hong was originally a genius girl from the Demon Country. Her family was rich. Even if she was renamed now, she could relive her past life. Qing undoubtedly needed such a large place to accommodate her beast group. Although the spirit beast bag can make the animals sleep in it, she could not keep eating or drinking forever. She still had to let them go out to raise them. The beast master is an authentic money-burning profession. If you want to be able to command thousands of birds and beasts on the battlefield, you have to have money and land!
Seeing that everyone chose this big manor, Wolfo smiled bitterly. They took out millions of gold coins to give gifts. Of course, they had some understanding of Yang's preferences, but it was indeed a secret that the manor was so low. He explained to Yang that this was because there was a big incident in the manor. The former owner of the manor was once a high-level magician. He bought it here, in fact, to develop a modulation beast that was explicitly prohibited on the mainland.
Later, the story broke out, and the army jointly sent by the professional trade union and the four major business alliances had a serious confrontation with him in the manor. As a result, the manor owner was suppressed, but he backed off his death, causing a bad consequence, that was, a gap in space was opened and many empty beasts from other worlds rushed out. After several battles, the business alliance controlled the situation and could only send heavy troops to defend. Of course, no one dared to live here, so housing prices fell so low.
The alien space is very mysterious, and even the best space mage on the continent can hardly guarantee its understanding. There are complete alien planes, smaller semi-planes and independent spaces. Many powerful people can even create a space themselves. The most mysterious thing is the independent world that once existed independently in the space storm, but later collapsed and only fragments of the secret realm.
Since there is no world power to stop the violent space turbulence, there is almost no environment for creatures to exist on these world fragments. However, once creatures can survive in the Netherworld, they will become monsters with strong bodies and able to travel through space storms. This kind of creature from the Netherworld is collectively called "Empty Beasts". The "Empty Beasts" have an instinctive desire for stable space and hate all other creatures in it. As long as they come through space, they will crazily attack all creatures they see.
Because the empty beast's body is special, it can be immune to most spells, and has space superpowers. Every time it appears on the mainland, it will cause a bloody storm. With the development of the mainland's space spell, news of the "empty beast" rampant due to the failure of space spells every year, and the "empty beast" problem has become very serious. Fortunately, all countries in the mainland attach great importance to this. After years of struggle, they have summarized many experiences and have various ways to restrain the "empty beast". The most important one is to immediately send a large number of people or experts to defend the space crack after discovering the space crack. Once the empty beast appears, they will immediately cull it on the spot and cannot let it escape. Then, the space mage slowly repairs and blocks the space crack.
Due to the irregularity of space cracks and the strong space storm, after the villain mage was killed, although his property was officially accepted, no one dared to live in that manor, so he was there. Recently, the Shang League spent a lot of effort to block the space cracks, leaving only the task of "empty beasts" occasionally to escape. However, the old-school team of troops stayed there and consumed a lot of money, so the Shang League, which had the upper hand, came up with this trick to sell the manor at a low price in exchange for masters to guard it.
In Wolford's words, the Merchant Alliance's assessment only requires two or three celestial masters to ensure safety. If someone is willing to be brave, the manor will be sold and given away half-sale, but it must be done first. The Dandelion Chamber of Commerce is well-informed. The people from the Military Department have watched the video of Yang fighting with masters from all sides along the way. They felt that as long as Yang and the others were prepared, they could even catch all the forces of the beast's Tooth, which had dozens of celestial masters, in one go, and it should be no problem to deal with a few empty beasts. So they also included the manor in the gift list for Yang, and as expected, they were selected by Yang.
Others heard that there were "empty beasts" in the manor, but I was afraid that Xie Bumin, but Xing and the others heard that "empty beasts" were extremely powerful and hard, and they were difficult to kill. Their eyes were shiny. What a good target and test item. Qing was even more excited about the new collections that entered the spirit beast bag. Even if Wolford reminded her that the "empty beasts" were creatures in another world, she might not be suppressed by the dragon-powered demon air. She said that as long as she had a super electromagnetic cannon and a lightning whip in her hand, she would definitely be able to train the "empty beasts" more well than the kitten!
