Chapter 089 The Great Wilderness Craftsmen

A mere 300 bottles per month and a bottle of 50 gold per bottle can exchange Gu Yi for 15,000 gold, while a 300 box of [Tian Bingxue Crystal] can exchange Gu Yi for a huge sum of 300,000 gold!

This money is not fed back by Feng Ning after selling the goods, but by Feng Ning directly settles the payment for the goods at the time of delivery. Because the number of shipments in each batch is too small, it cannot be sold as a commodity, so for the time being, it is only trading in the form of private purchases by Feng Ning.

Gu Yi didn't care how much these goods would be sold after they arrived in Feng Ning's hands.

A dou (7.56 kilograms) of wine is a hu of millet, which is the public price of a big gold cake. However, it often costs five hu of millet to be exchanged for it.

Gu Yi just changed the recipe of the liquor and improved the brewing technology. By turning the liquor into rice wine, he could sell the price of fifty gold (630 grams). It was already a very terrible huge profit, with a profit of thousands of times (a pound of millet produces two taels of mash juice, otherwise it would be a profit of six thousand times). What else could he not satisfy?

Besides, Feng Ning has clearly stated that these goods will not be sold as goods for the time being, but are "treasures" used by the chamber of commerce under his name to open up certain business roads, bribes and gifts, and luxury goods used to show off their wealth during important banquets.

Compared with the price he paid, the benefits that these things could be exchanged for him in the end could not be calculated with money. Although the amount of goods provided by Gu Yi was so small that Kenning wanted to rush into the bluestone mine and force Gu Yi to increase his output.

However, considering that Gu Yi promised him that once the time is right, the output will be expanded to a sufficient scale of sales of the Chamber of Commerce under the name of Kenning. In order to maintain this "supply channel", Kenning had to wait patiently and silently.

With the power of Feng Ning, it is actually very simple to investigate Gu Yi and others' identities. Feng Ning even recruited the mine Zhenggao Ji through the relationship between the [Qingshi Mine]'s direct superior unit and the [Iron Fortress] Fortress owner.

Gao Ji, who was showing off his power in the [Blueshi Mine], was summoned by the [Iron Fortress] Fortress Master. He could only go with his tail clamped over like a good boy. He didn't even have a place to sit. He stood in front of the [Iron Fortress] Fortress Master and Feng Ning who were sitting and drinking opposite each other, and honestly reported the situation to Nanwanhao Shang:

There is indeed a valley behind the mountain of [Qingshi Mining], and there is indeed a mysterious old dwarf of the [Diluoshankui] clan, which calls itself "the [Iron Academy] Forging and Melting Kui". Recently, it has indeed changed its previous habit of in-depth and conciseness, and has purchased various materials on a large scale. It has even borrowed the [Qingshi Mining] mine from Gaoli many times to serve as laborers.

There was an old short man from the [Diluoshankui] clan behind the Bluestone Mine. The owner of the [Iron Fortress] who accompanied him also made fun of evidence. Even before the Gaoji mine took over as the position of "Qingshi Mining Master", the fierce old Shankui lived there. However, he rarely came out to walk and had such good skills, so no one was willing to provoke him and let him dominate the not-so-big sinkhole.

After listening to the report of Zhenggaoji of the [Qingshi Mine] and the evidence of the [Iron Fortress] Fortress Master, although Feng Ning confirmed some of his own conjectures, he became more and more confused about the identities and origins of Gu Yi and others.

Although the [Diluo Shankui] clan, which is extremely short and only two-thirds of ordinary people, is classified as one of the [Jiuli] by the Taihua tribe, there are many masters among its tribes. They are craftsmen who are scrambled to win over and hire by various forces. They are also called the "Great Wilderness Crafts" together with the [Diluo Shanwang] and [Diluo Shanwei] clans.

(Note: Kui[kuí], Wang[xiāo], Wei[tuí])

The members of the Iron Academy known to Ning were mostly composed of the people of the Jiuli tribes, such as Diluoshankui, Diluoshanwang, Diluoshanwang, and Diluoshanwang. This coincided with Gu Yi's lies that he claimed to be his disciple of the Iron Academy.

However, Gu Yi's identity as the "remaining of the Gu Ji Dynasty" was too involved. Even Feng Ning did not dare to take this matter out rashly and question it, so he could only be kept in his heart.

Feng Ning did not expect that the movement of the construction of the back mountain of the [Qingshi Mine] was actually just a "bad clerk" under Gao Ji, and the old dwarf acted as a Tibetan mastiff in this farce, which was used to scare and confuse people who inquire about someone's identity and origin.

Although Gao Jie was puzzled about how the old short man in the back mountain has become active recently, he once saw the terrifying combat power of the [Diluoshankui] clan with his own chance, so he would never dare to provoke the old short man with a bad temper.

In addition, he was summoned by the owner of the boss [Iron Fortress] and the merchant of Nanwanhao, and thought that the boss was about to recruit the old dwarf to come out of the mountain, and he was even more afraid to offend him. After returning to the mountain, he thought about it over and over again and again, so he simply sent the hundred bald mines borrowed by the old dwarf to drive him over.

Whether it is to flatter or please, it is not a bad thing to be respectful to those who have fallen into the eyes of the castle master if they can not offend them.

With abundant funds and food, Gu Yi began to increase his investment in the Iron Academy [the method of body-building]. In addition to buying meat and bloody foods such as pigs, horses, cattle and sheep, chickens, ducks, eggs and poultry to tonic for the people of Kez, he also "invented" all the various fitness equipment he remembered, from simple dumbbells, barbells to large counterweight tensioners, single and double bars, etc.

I don’t know what crazy about the Mine Zhenggao River, but I actually sent back the 100 mine servants who helped build Xiankongzhai before and officially classified them as servants in the Iron Academy. With the help of manpower, this gave Gu Yi a space to display. Those fitness equipment can be made by themselves, and those that cannot be made by themselves can be customized at the [Shuiwatun] craft workshop as much as possible.

In this way, the people of Ke under Gu Yi's name fell into dire straits of pain and happiness, saying "pain and happiness" is because eating a full stomach is no longer a kind of happiness, but a torture.

It’s not that the food is unpalatable. On the contrary, the abundant natural ingredients and the secret seasonings personally prepared by the leader Gu Yi, the food cooked is full of color, fragrance and taste, which is enough for them to eat, even those who live a good life, to swallow their tongues.
