Chapter 805 The Glory and Charm of Money

In the end, the wood elves could not resist the temptation of one hundred thousand silver coins and signed an agreement with Kong Daqian.

They were quite generous in their bid. One hundred thousand silver coins was indeed a huge sum of money.

You know, in their great Zhou Dynasty, ordinary people only spend a little over one silver coin a month on food and drink.

Be economical, one hundred thousand silver coins is enough for one hundred thousand people of Great Zhou for a month, and the total population of Great Zhou is not that large at this stage!

And how many people do the wood elves have?

One hundred thousand silver coins just for food and drink would be enough for them to spend for several years.

Of course, the expenses of the wood elves cannot be calculated according to the normal expenses of ordinary people. After all, ordinary people in their Zhou Dynasty do not eat at Xiangmanlou every day.

In addition, judging from the things reported by the other party, it seems that the other party also wants to purchase a large amount of furniture, clothing and other daily necessities. These 100,000 silver coins will probably be spent faster than expected. .

And this is what they are happy to see!

After a simple consensus was reached, just in case, Kong Daqian told Locke about the possible situations.

For example, they need to cut down some trees and clear some open space.

Although the wood elves love nature, they are not the kind of extremists who would not cut down a single tree. After all, many objects in their own village are also made of trees.

What they resist is meaningless destruction, and they don't mind acquiring wood if there is indeed a need.

Overall, the conversation went very pleasantly.

"Then I wish us a happy cooperation. The 100,000 silver coins agreed upon will be delivered with our team at that time."

After finishing the conversation with Locke, the leader of the wood elf clan, Kong Daqian quickly wrote A report was sent back.

After receiving the report, Zhou Xu showed a smile on his face.

The result of the wood elf's conversation was basically in line with his expectations.

From the beginning, his purpose was to buy the mine.

As for what was proposed at the beginning, let the wood elves mine the mineral veins themselves.

If you think about it carefully, it should be clear that this is impossible. According to the current performance of the wood elves, they simply do not have the ability to mine mineral veins by themselves, or they do not want to do this at all.

In the end, it is completely foreseeable that the other party will accept the result that he will buy it out with 100,000 silver coins.

With this wave of cooperation, they not only obtained the diamond veins, but also further deepened their influence on the wood elves. It can be said that they killed two birds with one stone.

Under this premise, since we want to find mineral veins, Zhang Xuemei needs to contribute.

As early as the day Ye Jinghong brought back the diamond, Zhou Xu had already ordered to summon Zhang Xuemei back.

Zhang Xuemei should be on her way back now.

Zhou Xu is not in a hurry. After all, it takes a lot of time to build a mine and mine veins.

During this process, the season quietly entered summer...

After Zhang Xuemei arrived in the New World, she went directly to the forest basin.

During this process, the 100,000 silver coins packed in several large boxes were successfully delivered to the wood elves.

Opening the lid of the box, under the sunlight, the dazzling silver light of the large number of silver coins made them unable to open their eyes.

For the first time in their lives, the wood elves felt the brilliance and charm of money.

"Then can we go shopping in the market now?!" As always, Locke asked the previous members of the exchange group to come with him.

At this moment, each of them was extremely excited.

"Of course. Do you want to set off immediately? If there are many people, it is best to rent a few more carriages. This will make it much more convenient whether moving or transporting things after purchasing."

Having said this, the receptionist of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in charge of the reception made another quick explanation.

“What needs to be explained here is that before your exchange group came to our big week for exchanges, because it was to entertain guests, all expenses were reimbursed by us, but if you are going to us now If you are shopping in Dazhou, you have to pay for all the expenses along the way."

Hearing this, the wood elves headed by Locke nodded subconsciously and did not think there was any problem. .

After getting a clear answer, the receptionist of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs spoke again...

"Then please confirm first, which city are you going to go shopping? How many people are going? Whether to rent a carriage, etc., so I can also make arrangements.”

As soon as these questions came out, Locke suddenly felt numb, his head was empty, and he basically couldn’t answer any of them.

Even now he felt a little regretful. If he had known this, he should have gone to Dazhou in person during the exchange visit, so that he would not be ignorant of everything now.

Compared to Locke, who had an empty head, the wood elf who had participated in the exchange group had a much brighter mind.

"Xishan City, let's go to Xishan City! We need to rent a carriage. As for how many people are going, can we go back and discuss it first?"

During his return, he missed Xishan City so much, despite the distance. The nearest Green Forest City also has a market, but in comparison, Xishan City is more prosperous, has more things, and has to buy a lot of things, so Xishan City must take priority.

When faced with this problem, the reception staff had no reason not to agree.

"Of course, you can discuss it slowly. I will wait for your news here at the inn. If you need to come to our store for shopping in the future, I will be the person responsible for receiving you. You can call me Just leave it to Xiao Li.”

After bidding farewell to Xiao Li for the time being, the wood elves who returned to their clan are undoubtedly having a lot of fun.

When I signed up for the exchange group before, there were many wood elves who wanted to go, but in the end they were not selected.

Now that I have listened to the wood elves who came back from the exchange for so long, the wood elves who originally had little interest in Dazhou are now eager to try it. There are more people who want to go. Let Locke It became difficult to handle the situation.

The wood elves who have participated in the exchange group before undoubtedly want to go, and they have all valid reasons.

"Since we are going shopping this time, who in the clan knows better than us? Of course it is up to us!"

As soon as this sentence was said, who would say it? Can you refute it?

But that doesn't mean other wood elves just accept it.

"According to what you said, it's you who go every time. When will it be our turn?"

"That's it!"

In a moment, the scene It was noisy again.

At the back, Locke couldn't stand the noise anymore, so he shouted angrily...

"Quiet! Look what you look like now?!"

After a simple scolding, looking at the quiet tribesmen, Locke, who had calmed down a little, brought the topic back to business. .

“Okay, let’s pick ten from the previous exchange group, and pick ten from those who have never been to Dazhou. At the same time, if we have been this time, we will switch to other tribesmen when we go down.”

Although Locke doesn’t understand some things, he also probably knows that these 100,000 silver coins are not something they can spend all at once. They will definitely come here often in the future, so they made such an arrangement. .
