"Recruiting foundries and inscriptionists?" Qiong Xi and the others were surprised, this guy's ideas are really changing quickly and elusively.

"Of course, when war breaks out, we have to adjust accordingly. Shen Chen nodded, and then asked Amu and Xi Ze, saying, "When you went to the door before, how many guys did those foundries have on hand?"

It is inconvenient to travel in the big forest, and if the resources of a place are requisitioned in a short period of time, these craftsmen will definitely have a period of idleness.

"They have been busy for several days, and it is estimated that there are still two days left to complete the orders placed by the elven clan leaders and the temple. Nishizawa thought for a moment and said.

In fact, at the moment, those foundry and inscription masters are mainly creating arrows, this is the territory of the elves, and ordinary weapons, even in wartime, will not have too many vacancies.

Consumables such as arrows must be replenished and stockpiled quickly, because no one knows how long the war will last.

"Okay, then we'll wait for two days, and in the short meantime, you go out and inquire about the most famous foundry and inscription in town, and then we'll try to recruit, remember, as long as the elite. Shen Chen said with a smile.

Because he had to travel everywhere, it was impossible for him to bring a large team, and this casting team was about thirty or forty people, so he had to choose the most efficient craftsmen.

In this way, Shen Chen and his black merchant group temporarily settled in Qiushuang Town, and the next day, Shen Chen and Aya went out to further inquire about the war.

They came to the intelligence office in the town, which was now overcrowded, and the species in the great forest, because of the unity of faith, had always been the same enemy against the external threat, and many capable people wanted to know the progress of the war.

And these, the town's intelligence agency has been arranged by the temple, and it is constantly disclosing all kinds of information.

The old centaur who was in charge of this place walked out in a hurry, and announced in public: "According to the latest movements from above, Lord Sira God King has reached a preliminary agreement with our Elemental Elf Queen, and will additionally recruit people above the Fifth Order God Envoy to become forest warriors and go to the front line. ”

As soon as these words came out, the hall of the intelligence bank was full of uproar, and those elves were quite excited, and after waiting for so many days, they finally had conclusive news.

The temple-certified forest warriors have long been on the front lines, and now, as the war escalates, the temple has begun to mobilize more people to become forest warriors.

These improvised forest warriors may be used as a reserve to prevent further escalation, or they may be on standby to support each location.

As for the news released by the old centaur, many of the young elves present were annoyed, because their cultivation strength was not up to standard.

Among all the races in the forest, the standard for elves to become forest warriors is always the highest, this race is inherently strong, and the temple and the elf queen naturally do not want those young elves who have not yet grown up and have great potential to make sacrifices, that is a long-term plan.

The old centaur then announced the registration location of Autumn Frost Town, and it was on the school field here, and now the guards in the town have already organized registration activities, and those who are aspiring can try it.

After a large number of elves left, Shen Chen stepped forward and asked for some additional information, he wanted to know the additional source of the arrow materials.

At present, the high-level of the temple and the elven clan are mainly collecting materials for large shops, and they are paid and voluntarily collected.

At any time, Her Royal Highness, the great goddess of nature, and the goddesses who are listed as goddesses, are all proud of their justice and benevolence, and whether it is the mobilization of forest warriors or the collection of materials, they will not overwhelm people.

This point is quite loved by countless ethnic groups on the dark green original domain.

The old centaur smiled a little reverently when he heard his question: "Her Royal Highness the Goddess and Her Royal Highness the Elven Queen raised their arms, and naturally everyone corresponded, and it is difficult for you to buy arrow materials in most local gold shops right now, unless you go far away from the elven territory." ”

Shen Chen was stunned, and his heart was also silent, the influence of the goddess of nature and the elf queen on this area was indeed incomparable.

"However, if you need this young boss, the old man can show you the way. But then, the centaur laughed meaningfully.

The person in charge of the intelligence agency in Qiushuang Town obviously knew Shen Chen's identity for a long time, the Heavenly King Arrow is now so hot in this area, as a person in the intelligence bank, this old man, there is no reason not to know who is selling that powerful arrow.

What's more, now the Lord has come to their Autumn Frost Town.

"Senior, please speak. Shen Chen's face turned grim, and he hurriedly asked, now this matter is indeed imminent, if he can't find an effective source of material supply, he may only be able to reduce the sale of arrows.

In that case, the process of making the Heavenly King's Arrow famous will be greatly delayed.

"At present, there are two more pragmatic countermeasures, young people, you still have two ways, one is the black market in every place, the kind of shady trading place, at this time, many cunning merchants, not only will not respond to the temple's solicitation, but will also take the opportunity to sit on the ground and raise the price of a large number of needed materials to wait for buyers. ”

The old centaur frowned and said: "Although the old man is very disgusted with those people, he also admits that there are similar situations, there are slightly larger markets, not to mention the town, where is the black market in Autumn Frost Town, I will give you clues later, find someone to take you there." ”

"What about the second way?" Shen Chen nodded, he also thought of this, but the number of things on the black market is elusive, and there are many variables.

"The second is to buy from other places. The old centaur smiled, "In places far away from the territory of the elves, especially in the areas occupied by some species that are not good at archery, there are still a lot of arrow materials, although the temple also went to those places to collect, but young people you still have a chance." ”

"Foreign?" Shen Chen frowned, is this also a way?

"Hehe, the old man knows that you don't want to leave the Elven Forest, in fact, buying from other places may not require you to go out in person, you can send information widely, collect materials from the merchant groups traveling around the world, and let them go to the predetermined place to wait for you in advance. The old centaur explained with a smile.

Shen Chen's eyes lit up when he heard this, that's right, this is really the way, after sending the news, let the business groups from all over the country come from all directions, which saved him a lot of trouble.

For example, if he is going to Fenglin Town at the next stop, he can spread the news and let the business groups who have ideas to cooperate collect materials in various places and wait for him in Fenglin Town in advance.

Or, when he arrives in Maple Grove himself, he can wait a few days.

"Thank you for your advice. Shen Chen was overjoyed, the current problem finally had an eyebrow.

"Hehe, there is no need to say thank you, in fact, the old man said this, and he also hopes that you will build a larger number of Heavenly King Arrows, that thing is amazing, with it, the combat effectiveness of the elf warriors will be substantially improved, and a certain kind of Cheng Dù is also helping ourselves. The old centaur said with a smile, quite personable.

Shen Chen was suddenly in awe, this old centaur deserved to be engaged in intelligence, he was really thoughtful, long-term, and did not reject him at all, but hoped that his Heavenly King Arrow would become bigger in the forest.

"Actually, my final thought is also to hope to cooperate with the high-level of the elf clan. Shen Chen said unabashedly.

"Well, this couldn't be better, but it's a little difficult, and now the war is urgent, the elves are the first major race in the green plains, and the high-level is the cornerstone of the war, the most reliable main force of the temple, many high-level elves have already led the people to the front line, and they are also anxious about the war at the moment, and it is difficult to pay attention to a human race. The old centaur nodded.

Subsequently, Shen Chen and Aya, led by an informant arranged by the old centaurs, went to the black market in Qiushuang Town.

This black market, hidden in a cave in the middle of a large forest, is quite hidden.

Under the guidance of the informant, Shen Chen and the others directly found the most famous mineral gold connector here, and the connector was quite cautious about Shen Chen's arrival.

Although the temple does not enforce the collection of materials, their current behavior of taking advantage of the fire to loot is also quite disgusting and repulsive to the people in the big forest, and even sometimes, it will even invite some trouble.

Therefore, those sellers will not reveal their identities lightly, even if they are this kind of connectors, they must be carefully guarded, for fear of being caught and embarrassed.

However, after learning that Shen Chen was also a businessman, the guards of the connector were a little more relaxed, because he felt that Shen Chen was also a person from all the way.

"Given the current market, the price of gold for our sellers is three times higher than the price levied by the temple. The connector glanced at the list handed over by Shen Chen, opened the skylight and said brightly, without thinking.

Shen Chen shook his head and said with a smile: "It can't be so high, judging from the circulation range of the Great Forest, if there is no suitable buyer, it will be difficult to sell these materials hoarded in the black market." ”

"But Your Excellency should also know that the war is escalating, and it is conceivable that the price of the temple will soon rise, and it may not be long before the temple will take the initiative to buy it on the black market, and then our sellers will be able to do business openly. The connector retorted.

This remark sounds very reasonable, but unfortunately Shen Chen is also a shrewd person, and before he came, he naturally investigated the relevant situation.

In fact, the current levy price of the temple is quite not low, and it is a few points higher than the original selling price of the shop.

However, as the leader of the war, the temple needs to consider the long-term and take into account the overall situation, among which the consumption of war funds and materials is the most important.

According to the previous example, the temple would not have taken three times the usual price to levy a large amount of required materials anyway, and it simply could not afford it.

Shen Chen didn't talk nonsense, and directly offered a price: "I'll give you a forty percent increase on the basis of the current purchase price of the temple, if you are willing to sell, I can swallow as many materials on the list as you want, and if you don't want to, forget it." ”

Hearing this, the connector was stunned, it turned out to be a big customer, this kind of appetite is undoubtedly what those sellers want.

The price he just held was obviously a bit of a lie, mainly to some scattered buyers, and this kind of big customer naturally couldn't be blackmailed.

He thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, give me half a pillar of incense time, I need to ask the seller's attitude." ”

"Tell them directly, this is the highest price I have ever offered, and there is no need to negotiate. Shen Chen said lightly.

The informant who brought him next to him was secretly frightened, this young man had no cultivation fluctuations, but he was quite calm and courageous, worthy of being the big boss of the Heavenly King Arrow.

"The price of your purchase materials has increased by forty percent, and the selling price of the Heavenly King's Arrow will also rise?"

Now that the Green Plains is threatened by foreign enemies, she naturally doesn't want this guy to take the opportunity to make a fortune with that kind of arrow, and even if she is still at home, she will try to persuade her father to sell the arrows at a reasonable price, mainly to the temple, the elven high-level, or the forest warriors who are about to go to war.
