Chapter 24: Plucking
There are pros and cons to the development of a territory relying on large cities and relying on small cities.
Relying on large cities can enjoy a perfect urban system, quickly establish a territorial economic system, and the military strength will also increase rapidly. Prior to Level 5 Territories, territories that relied on large cities were generally stronger than those that relied on small cities.
Although the territory that relies on the development of small cities cannot enjoy the benefits of improving the urban system, the small cities have little control over the periphery of the city, and the territory can occupy many production areas of materials and raw materials with good output, such as wood, stone and rare resources.
The territorial development of Daliang is a typical big city, whether it is Shangjiang City or Sigh City, it is the top city in everyone. The management of the ruling layer has given Da Liang many unexpected benefits, but the number of mines he has is not large, some minerals need to be purchased, and the output of rare resources in the entire territory depends on two super-rich mines obtained by accident.
The development of Shi Fei's territory, the Dragon Star Territory, is based on the route of medium-sized cities, his territory is located near Sanya City, and the portal exit of the Dream Realm did not choose the main city of the elves, but chose the Green Tree City under the Bauhinia City.
The system of the two cities is relatively perfect, but the control over the surrounding land is not as high as that of the main city, so Shi Fei used the memories of his previous life to rob many mines. Although the daily output of rare minerals in his territory is not as good as that of Daliang, the quantity is much larger.
However, super rich ore is something that cannot be found, and the consumption of rare resources has increased greatly after the territory enters level 6, and the demand for rare minerals has become increasingly urgent.
The Black Fire Lord's exploration troops had already explored the surrounding areas of Sigh City under Da Liang's order, and there were many minerals and rare mines, but they were all under the control of the Unsullied Holy See, and the Black Fire Leader did not have the strength to snatch these mines from the hands of Sigh City.
As for further afield.
It's easy to find, but it's really hard to keep.
The other open realms are supported by the Grand Guild, and the player can cooperate with the army to defend the mine to a limited extent. If Da Liang has a mine near Sigh City, it is enough to defend the mine with the army of the Black Fire Lords and the Church Knights of the Misty Zone, but if it is too far away, it is beyond the range of the Church Knights of the Misty Zone, and it can only rely on the defense of the Black Fire Lord's army, and it is difficult to defend it in the face of the harassment of the player.
The places where Da Liang now has a relatively strong control are the Black Fire Collar, the Shangjiang Fiefdom, the Forgotten Hills and the Buried Bones, all of which are actively looking for minerals, and the output of rare resources is not ideal.
"With the current production of rare resources, it is simply not enough to maintain the operation of a higher territory, and more minerals must be obtained as soon as possible."
In front of Da Liang is a map of the perimeter of Sigh City, and there are several rare mines with good production in the outskirts of the Misty Zone. It's just that there are heavy guards from the Innocent Holy See, and if you want to trap them in, you will definitely not be able to use force, so you can only outwit them.
Just when Da Liang was analyzing the loopholes in the management of the church in the Misty Zone, and wanted to try to incorporate these rare minerals into the church in the Misty Zone, and indirectly get the ownership. He saw a group of ghost dragons land on the front lawn of the Destiny Manor, and a group of Unsullied Papal Knights jumped from the backs of the ghost dragons, led by Will, the head of the Unsullied Holy See Knights.
Butler Mike had already gone out to greet him and welcomed Will and his party to the main building of the manor.
Send Will away first, and then think about rare resources and minerals.
Da Liang immediately changed into the Innocent Pope's robes, and met Will and a priest in the reception room who was wearing the robes of the Innocent Holy See but hiding his appearance.
"Praise be to the Grim Reaper! Dear Captain Will, hello. Did you come to the Fog because of the bombing of the Fog District church last night? ”
Will first glanced at the sad monarch beside him, and then said, "Regarding the attack on the church in the Misty District by wizards, I have heard what the priests have said about the situation on the side of the ruins of the church, and I am here to know more about the history.
I heard the priests say, you killed all those wizards alone? ”
"Of course I didn't kill ......" Will's small actions were seen by Da Liang, the undead are a race that is not good at lying, and at the same time, their class is clearly more respectful of the order than the human race, so Will can't calmly treat him as an ordinary papal priest in front of the sad monarch. Da Liang could see Will's respect for this priest, and the only thing that could be respected by Will in the entire City of Sighs was the Sorrowful Monarch. So, of course, you can't fool this sad monarch who knows all the truth with the lies of the clergy of the Misty Zone. Da Liang then said to Will, "I said that those wizards were killed by me in order to calm the priests and church knights of the church in the Misty Zone.
The wizards were killed by a skeleton mage, and the skeleton mage seemed to be looking for something, and when I learned that the wizard who attacked the church in the Misty Zone was inside, I attacked directly, and I didn't hear what they were talking about. Then ......"
Da Liang recounted the incident in detail, and said: "I don't know why the skeleton mage finally let me go, but after I entered the tomb, I saw several corpses of wizards.
The skeleton mage was so powerful, the Misty Church was just under construction, and I didn't want to panic the priests and knights, so I lied. ”
The group of wizards was killed by a skeleton mage, and Will immediately thought that it was the Sorrowful Monarch who had come to the Misty District to personally kill the remnants of the Wizards' Guild of Sighs.
And the Sorrowful Monarch also got the information he wanted, and when he questioned Anthony, he revealed that he wanted to become a god, and then he found someone hiding nearby. The first reason he had come to see Da Liang was to find out if he had heard the blasphemous words of death, and now it seems that he had not heard them.
Will didn't get any clear instructions from the Sorrowful Monarch on how to deal with this matter, so he didn't express his attitude: "I already know about this matter, I will report the incident of the entire Misty District Church being blown up by wizards to the Holy See of Sighing City, and how to deal with this matter still needs to be decided by the Monarch."
Styx, are there any other instructions from the Holy See that you would like to convey to the Boning Pope? ”
The Sorrowful Monarch has been observing everything here since he entered the Destiny Manor, and for the barren realm of the dead, this place can really be described as luxurious. As a Terran, boning really enjoys life, and the cost of maintaining it is probably more expensive than building this manor.
This shows the ability of this human being to make money.
And the Sorrowful Monarch desperately needs someone to make his coffers overflow.
So the Sorrowful Monarch asked Da Liang, "After coming to the Misty Zone, I was very surprised at how it changed now. Captain Will and I knew very well what it was like before, but now it is developing more and more in the direction of a bustling Terran city. These changes all occurred after the boning Pope came to the Misty Zone, which shows that you are a very profitable person, Pope.
The Holy See of the Sigh is very happy that a bustling urban area has appeared in this city, and intends to collect taxes here, and we hope that the Church of the Misty District will cooperate with the tax collectors of the Holy See to establish a tax collection agency in the Misty District. ”
