Originally, the wetland was a large swamp, but now that winter is coming, the swamp is frozen, and the place where the beta teleported is a white ice field. A biting cold wind blew in from the north and whistled across the flat ice fields, rattling with ice slag that would tear the skin apart when it hit the face.

Because Beta and Shirley were both master professionals, such a natural environment had little impact on them, so although the two of them were wearing thin clothes, they did not feel any discomfort.

Jessica, on the other hand, was also running around, looking excited. She has werewolf blood in her veins, and it's not surprising that she naturally loves the ice plains.

"Master, why do you want this barren land?" Xue Attack was a little puzzled: "There are no resources here, there is no strategic value, and there is still a swamp under your feet, so it is not cost-effective to build a city here." ”

"Who said there are no resources, we have a lot of magic materials under our feet." Beta smiled, and as soon as he spoke, his mouth spat white gas: "This resource alone is enough for us to spend many years." ”

Shirley was a little strange: "How do you know?" If there is such a precious magic material down here, why don't other nobles come and mine it? ”

"Not many people know about it, and they don't have experience building cities on swampland." Beta confidently said, "But I have." I've been making magic scrolls for half a year, just for this day. ”

Shirley's eyes lit up: "Turn mud into stone? ”

Beta admitted, "That's the magic. Of course, it's impossible to turn the entire swamp into a real place with mud to stone magic, after all, the place is so big. But we hardened the swamp around here first, so that the winter snow would not melt away and turn into a swamp again. That's not going to be easy. ”

"Master, I'll help you." Shirley became excited: "This is the master's territory, and that is our real home in the future?" ”

"yes."

Beta chuckled, in the game, the wetlands were the players' shared home from the beginning. He took out a large number of magic scrolls from his space backpack and gave some to Shirley. Then the two of them were throwing magic scrolls at the snow beneath their feet. A blue-yellow light flashed, and after about three hours, the magic scroll in the hands of the two men had been exhausted, and Beta estimated that they had transformed the swamp, which was about a thousand meters long and wide, into the ground.

There are about 1,000 magic scrolls used, about 3,000 gold coins.

This is already an unimaginably large amount of money, and not many people can afford it. And spending so much money, but only building some fields, for many nobles, this is a complete waste.

That's why many people know that there are a lot of magical materials buried in the ground, but no one wants to keep the land for themselves.

In the game, Beta didn't have that much gold at the time, so he was looking for other mage players in the forums to help out for free. It took three months to turn the entire swamp of the wetland into a field. This is because this is the first territory the player owns. Therefore, the players are very happy, and all kinds of free support materials are built.

Jessica watched Shirley and Beta go about their work, as she looked lost because she wasn't a spellcaster and couldn't use the magic scroll.

But Beta noticed this, and he touched the little girl's head and said, "Don't worry. Everyone has their own work to do, and after a short time, you'll be so busy that you don't have much time to sleep, so take a short break now. ”

Jessica's eyes lit up as soon as she heard this.

Most. They don't like to work, and they don't do it if they can. But Jessica is the opposite, she likes to have something to do, especially to help her master. Because of her previous relationship, she has always believed that a maid is the most ideal profession for a woman, which means that from now on, there will be a place to sleep and something to fill her stomach.

In particular, the arrival of Shirley made her feel that this idea was correct. Because a woman as beautiful and capable as Shirley is just the master's maid.

Shirley walked over from the side, she watched Beta touching the little girl's head, and there was a look of envy in her eyes: "What should we do next?" ”

"The next step is to build a castle." Beta looked at the northern side of the sky, "We've got to find some laborers to work here." But ordinary people don't want to go to such a cold and snowy place to suffer, so we can only buy some slaves instead. ”

"There's a slave sale city around here, and I think it's Kalonte."

Speaking of Caronte, a smile appeared in Beta's eyes.

In the game, the city of Caronte was the first city to fight against the beta, and the first to be beaten by the beta to the point that the lord almost cried. Later, Caronte learned to be obedient, as soon as Beta appeared, he immediately pretended to be cowardly, and resolutely did not participate in the coalition wars made by other nobles, which made it avoid a lot of unnecessary losses later, and then trade with Beta's Wetland City, making a lot of money.

After recalling, he brought the two women closer to him, and Beta activated the teleportation magic.

In the next second, they appeared on the road outside Karonte, because it was the snow season, there were quite few people outside the city, so when the three Beta came out of the magic array, they didn't cause any commotion.

The three of them passed through the gates of Caronte City, and the city defenders naturally didn't dare to stop Beta when they saw that Beta was dressed as a magician.

As soon as the three of them entered the city gate, a young man who was not very good in blood and blood walked up, he bent over, and said very humbly: "Your Excellency the Honorable Magician, and your lady and young lady...... I'm Bled, the best guide in the city of Caronte. If you're a newcomer, hiring me will save you a lot of unnecessary trouble. ”

This person sees the three Betas as a family of three. Beta didn't care, Shirley had a smile on her face, and Jessica had an expression that didn't know what the other person was talking about.

Beta popped out a silver coin and landed in the other party's hand: "Take me to the biggest slave farm in the city." ”

Brad looked at the silver coin in his hand, and smiled so much that his face was almost wrinkled into chrysanthemums: "As you wish, honorable lord." ”

One silver coin can do a lot of things. Brad carefully placed the silver coin and walked forward. As he walked, he explained to Beta the types of goods sold in the surrounding shops, and whether they were fair.

This is the quality of a good guide. Beta listened with relish, and Shirley listened attentively.

It turned out that the journey from the city gate to the slave market was quite long, but under Brad's eloquence, this journey felt like it had passed quickly.

Stopping in front of a black building, Brad said, "The slave market is inside, but not for my species, and I beg your pardon for not being able to accompany you any longer." ”

Beta thought for a moment and said, "You wait here first, I'll have other things to trouble you later." ”

As soon as he heard this, Brad immediately replied happily: "Thank you, Your Excellency, I will be here for you all the time." ”

For Brad, if he can earn two silver coins a day, that's good luck.

Beta took Shirley and Jessica inside, but as soon as she entered the room, Shirley pinched her nose and stepped back, as did Jessica.

"It stinks!"

Both said at the same time.

In essence, Beta only smelled a strange smell, although she didn't like it, but she could bear it, but Shirley and Jessica were different, one of them was a divine creature, the other had werewolf blood, and their sense of smell was quite sensitive. Beta knew what virtue was in the slave market, and it was indeed difficult for some strong people to let them into such an environment.

"Then you can wait outside."

Beta looked at the two women who nodded vigorously, smiled slightly, and continued to walk in.

The building is a little shady, but the footprint is extremely exaggerated, and Beta discovers that there is also a staircase leading to the basement.

He had just walked into the building less than five steps before a young man with a mercenary face came up and asked, "Hello Your Excellency, I am the director here, what kind of goods do you need, please just tell me, as long as we let the things inside, we can help you find them." ”

"I need a group of slaves." Beta looked at the other man's face and pondered his thoughts: "Three hundred to five hundred." I think with the strength of your clubhouse, it shouldn't be difficult to make it up. ”

The young man squinted his eyes for a moment and said, "We have three batches of slaves here that meet your requirements, why don't you randomly inspect the goods first?" ”

"Let's take a look at all three batches."

"Okay, no problem." The young man smiled a little happily.

Soon Beta felt the need to look at the three batches, because the slaves of two of them were not humans at all, but kobolds and goblins.

Only the third group of slaves were human.

Some of them were women, some were younger, and even had a baby. Beta counted roughly, and indeed it should have exceeded the number he wanted.

These people looked numb, and both men and women, young and old, looked lifeless.

Beta asked, "Do you know where they came from?" ”

The young man next to him said, "Yorkers...... Two years ago, he offended the king of Udarigan, and was hunted down by the king of Udarigan, and finally ended up in this place. ”

O Yorkists! Beta sighed, then looked inside, and thought, "How much does this group of people need?" ”

"You're all done?" The young man was a little surprised: "There should be more than 700 people here." ”

"I think there are too few people." Beta looked at the emaciated baby who had no milk to drink and said, "Go and report the number, I want this group of people." ”

"Please wait a minute, I'll go and inform the big boss."

The young man was overjoyed when he was surprised, and he suppressed his excitement and walked away. (To be continued.) )
