Chapter 64 Black Lion Chamber of Commerce
[Obtain Ice Crystal*16]
[Obtain Chaos Book·Weak*4]
[Get frozen meat*72]
[Obtain rusty iron spear*3]
……
"4 books of chaos, 16 ice crystals, not bad."
After clearing out the spoils on the ground, all the monsters here were eliminated.
A system prompt appears.
[A medium-sized copper mine with no owner was found. Should we occupy it? ]
Just like before, Cao Xing simply nodded "yes".
[Occupation successful, obtain medium-sized copper mine*1, obtain bronze treasure chest*1.]
Cao Xing's eyes lit up when he heard the latter hint.
"Huh? Another treasure chest?"
Cao Xing stepped over the corpses of the goblins and began to search in the mine.
Soon, he found an antique bronze treasure chest in the corner.
When I looked closer, the system prompt appeared again.
[Found an unlocked bronze treasure chest, do you want to open it? 】
"Yes."
[Open successfully. 】
[Get the primary element arrow tower blueprint*1]
[Obtain refined iron*6]
[Get 1 small resource packs]
[Get Ice Archer Training Manual*1]
There wouldn’t be anything too powerful in the bronze treasure chest, so Cao Xing didn’t have any expectations.
And when he saw the last hint, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"A training manual has actually been released?"
"Wuhu! Can't we just build a training camp here?"
A look of joy appeared on Cao Xing's face.
"Okay, okay! Next, we just need to recruit some more people and train them in large numbers to become combat soldiers."
However, now is not the time.
Because Cao Xing has a small number of subordinates and needs them to do work.
After decomposing the opened bronze treasure chest on the ground into 6 pieces of copper.
Cao Xing said, "Let's go, we can go out now."
Then he took Sarah and Assam and walked out of the mine.
Along the way, several spike traps were also dismantled.
Soon, Cao Xing came out of the mine.
After seeing Cao Xing coming out, Andrew, who was waiting outside the mine, said respectfully: "God of Nature bless you."
Cao Xing nodded and returned to the territory with his men.
Crunch!Crunch!
The tracked robot continued to crush the thick snow.
After a while, they returned to the territory.
At this time, a railway track had been laid.
One end of the railway track connects to the ore processing plant, and the other end connects to the coal mine a few hundred meters away.
Two mine cars are working back and forth on it, loaded with a large amount of coal, and have already taken initial shape of industrialized mining.
Cao Xing sat on the robot and shouted directly: "Cao Yi."
At this time, Cao Yi, who was working in the [Ore Processing Plant], came out immediately after hearing the shouting.
"Lord Lord."
Cao Xing nodded and said, "We have just discovered a copper mine, two kilometers away from the territory. I need you to lead people to lay a railroad track and then start mining."
After hearing this, the chieftain thought: "My Lord, it seems that the length of our railway track is not enough for a two-kilometer journey?"
Cao Xing glanced at his storage box.
【Railway*972】
Although we obtained more than a thousand rails from the Mole Man mine last time.
However, because a batch of rails were consumed in connecting the coal mine, the remaining rails were no longer able to connect to the copper mine two kilometers away.
Cao Xing waved his hand and said, "It's okay. I have a blueprint for making the rails here."
"Send someone to the blacksmith shop to make a batch of rails, and then connect them together."
Hearing this, the chieftain Cao Yi's face lit up immediately, and then he said respectfully: "Okay, Lord, I'll do it right away!"
After saying that, he went to arrange the work.
The territory has re-entered a state of rapid development.
Looking at the busy people, Cao Xing nodded with satisfaction.
Of course, the ones who do the work are leaders like Cao Yi and Da Zhuang.
Like Sarah, Andrew, as a combatant, would not participate in these.
However, after their loyalty reaches 100, Cao Xing can also force orders on them.
Cao Xing thought to himself, "We need to find something for these guys to do."
And just then.
Cao Xing suddenly saw a figure appear in the white snow in front of him.
There was still some distance between them, but one could tell there were a lot of people.
Cao Xing's eyes suddenly focused!
"alert!"
Uh-huh! Swish!
In an instant, all the recruited creatures in the territory drew their weapons and were ready for battle.
It is difficult for ordinary people to walk in this snowy place, so the sudden appearance of such a large group of people is indeed a bit abnormal.
At this time, Sarah has entered stealth mode.
Including all the people working outside, they ran back to the territory as soon as possible.
Only within the territory are they absolutely safe, and these few days have proven this.
Liu Muxue was ready for battle and stood nervously beside Cao Xing.
Xia Yanni, who was standing by, also took Tong Chuchu and hid in the shelter.
This was the first time they encountered other humans approaching their territory.
And the group of figures seemed to be walking towards them.
However, when getting closer, Cao Xing discovered that it seemed to be a caravan.
A group of people guarded five carriages, making a huge scene.
Cao Xing saw that there was a black lion pattern printed on those carriages.
At this time, Asam said: "My Lord, that seems to be the convoy of the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce."
"Black Lion Chamber of Commerce?" "Yes."
Assam nodded and said, "The Black Lion Chamber of Commerce is one of the three strongest chambers of commerce in the Western Continent, with members spread all over the continent."
"It is said that this Chamber of Commerce does all kinds of business, and its business scope covers the Western Continent and the Northern Continent."
After hearing Assam's explanation, Cao Xing felt a little relieved.
Turns out they are a group of businessmen, so there's no need to be so nervous.
at the same time.
The convoy members have also arrived at Cao Xing's territory.
As the name suggests, everything in this chamber of commerce is black.
The horses were black, the vehicles were black, and even the armor on the guards was black.
However, among them, Cao Xing saw two tall creatures that did not look like humans at all.
"Huh? Cat head?"
Assam was still introducing Cao Xing to the side.
"My Lord, those two creatures with cat heads and long tails are from the Charr tribe."
"This is a race born for fighting, and they often accept some mercenary tasks."
Cao Xing nodded.
He also noticed that among this group of guards, especially the two mercenaries from the Charles clan, they gave him a strong sense of threat.
Cao Xing glanced at their attributes.
[Black Lion Guard: Ruber lv25]
[Race: Charr]
[Level: Level 3 Elite]
[Attack power: 1654~1723]
[Armor: 312~323]

……
[Black Lion Guard: Ezra lv26]
[Race: Charr]
[Level: Level 3 Elite]
[Attack power: 1712~1755]
[Armor: 251~261]
[Skills: Heavy Attack, Strength Banner, Discipline Banner. ]
[Talent: Natural Selection]
……
Cao Xing narrowed his eyes.
Two third-level elite creatures, plus a group of guards who are at least second-level or above.
No wonder this caravan dared to do business in the dangerous snowy plains.
The more dangerous the environment, the higher the profit.
As long as they can get through the harsh environment and reach some towns, they can sell the supplies in their hands at prices several times or even dozens of times higher than the cost.
At this time, a short businessman who looked like a wine barrel got off a carriage.
He came to Cao Xing's territory, looked at the territory that appeared in the snow, and exclaimed: "The territory that suddenly appeared, as long as there is fuel, the bonfire will never go out!"
"Could it be that you are the chosen lord chosen by the world's will and summoned from another world?"
He looked at Cao Xing excitedly and subconsciously wanted to come over and shake hands with him.
But when he reached the edge of the territory, he was blocked outside by an invisible wall of air.
A look of shock appeared in the businessman's eyes!
"There is a force preventing me from entering. This is truly the chosen territory!"
"My God!"
Then he looked at Cao Xing and performed standard etiquette.
"This Chosen Lord, the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce: Hilton sends you greetings."
Cao Xing didn't know why the other party reacted so strongly. If he knew that there were billions of Chosen Lords in this world, wouldn't he be shocked to death?
Cao Xing nodded slightly.
"Lord Cao Xing, greetings to you, Lord Hilton."
Businessman Hilton breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the response. The reactions of Cao Xing and others just now made him nervous.
He saluted again.
Cao Xing also expressed his friendliness and asked everyone to put down their weapons.
Then, Cao Xing checked Hilton's properties.
[Black Lion Chamber of Commerce: Hilton level 6]
[Race: Human Race]
[HP: 480/480]
[Attack power: 37~41]
[Skills: Negotiation skills, bargaining, danger perception, money instinct, reading people's expressions]
[Talent: Linguistics Proficiency]
...
Wow, that's a lot of life skills.
No wonder this guy can lead such a caravan through the snow.
What a talent!
Cao Xing was the first to speak: "Mr. Hilton, what brings you to my territory?"
Hilton was not surprised by Cao Xing's problem.
He explained, "Lord Cao Xing, excuse me for interrupting you. We at the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce travel all over the continent and also trade with some lords and nobles."
"After seeing your territory, I wanted to come and see if you need to trade materials with our Black Lion Chamber of Commerce."
"trade?"
"Yes, if you have any valuable items or items whose price is difficult to determine, you can sell them to us. I will buy them at a reasonable price."
"Similarly, you can also take a look at the goods in our caravan to see if there are any items that interest you."
Cao Xing was stunned. This was his first time encountering a Guild of Commerce, a role similar to that of a wandering merchant.
So he asked, "What goods do you have?"
Businessman Hilton smiled mysteriously.
Then, a system prompt appears.
[Black Lion Chamber of Commerce: Hilton is disclosing his cargo list to you. Do you accept it? ]
