Chapter 406 Philip

There is no one in Green who is not crazy about the precious metal gold, but this does not include Feng Yu and Xiangpu City.

In Feng Yu's eyes, apart from a portion of gold being used as industrial raw materials, the rest is just an ordinary metal.

Xiangpu City is not a dragon's nest, so there is no need to lay gold bricks on the ground and then be coveted by others all day long. So Feng Yu and Illya discussed it and they made a huge consumption plan.

Although this plan is huge, its content is very simple, which is to spend money to recruit workers in the human world, especially in the turbulent Brocade Empire in the north.

The Great Wilderness is dangerous, but the Dawn City in the Snow Peak Mountains is not dangerous, and the Golden City in the desert is not harassed by the plane wars.

Due to the lack of a large number of workers, the construction in these places is being carried out slowly, bit by bit according to priority. What is lacking is a large number of manpower.

The north of the Brocade Empire is in danger now, and many people have begun to migrate south, or flee, so the time to recruit workers is ripe.

In the east of the Brocade Empire, a caravan is slowly moving eastwards. Their destination is the easternmost border of the Brocade Empire, the west bank of the Lengshui River.

The boss of the caravan rode his horse leisurely in the middle of the caravan, sighing that the sky was so beautiful without the harpies.

The caravan owner with a bald head, no eyebrows and a scar on his face was called Philip, a name he was still getting familiar with.

He had been forced to forget his original name, because that name represented the lord of a city that had disappeared in the meteorite mountains.

"Boss... we are almost at Lengshui River. There are more and more transport teams from the Empire!"

Philip glared at the 'captain of the caravan guard', the meaning of which was self-evident.

"Yes, we are almost there. I didn't expect that this place where Zhijin, Moran and a few other forces are close to each other is actually the safest.

The northern part of the empire, which was originally the safest place far away from Moran, has become a hunting ground for plane monsters. "

"Boss, although we... our caravan doesn't have much capital!" The personal guard reminded his 'boss'.

Philip smiled and said, "The plane war is getting more and more intense. Are you afraid of not making money in this chaotic world? Don't worry, we won't starve to death."

"I heard from the caravan that the minority species in the City of Miracles have actually blocked the Lengshui River. We must go and take a look."

"Look, our first half of life was so hard, from now on we just need to make a living. Let's... travel and enjoy the scenery!
In this chaotic world, we should live happier. "

The caravan continued to move forward and soon encountered the Brocade Empire's checkpoint.

"boss……"

"It's okay, keep going."

The former personal guard, now the captain of the caravan guard, looked at the unrecognizable face of his boss, the city lord, and suddenly realized what had happened.

"Stop, where are you from?" The soldiers at the checkpoint stopped the caravan.

Philip looked calm, and without getting off his horse, he drove his horse to the checkpoint and said, "I came here to do business from the north. The sky over there is now full of man-eating beasts. I have no choice but to try my luck here."

Many small caravans from the north moved southwards, and they met quite a few along the way. It was very convenient to disguise themselves, and even the accent problem was solved.

"Is the north really that dangerous? There have been quite a few caravans coming there recently!" the soldier muttered.

Philip pointed to his face and said, "If I hadn't set my clothes on fire to scare off the harpy, I would have become its food by now."

The soldier looked at the scar on the hairless bald head and couldn't help but admire the young boss.

Flip winked at his guards, who came over and took out a purse and stuffed it into the guard post: "Here, brothers, our lord is treating you to a drink."

There are many petty nobles who have fled to the north of the empire, and there are even more petty nobles who do business in the empire without their ancestral property. There is nowhere to investigate even if you want to.

And the noble medal that Philip was wearing belonged to their deceased butler.

The old butler had worked in their family for his entire life, and he didn't care about the title of lordship bestowed upon him by his father. The old butler, who seldom went out, had never carried the medal.

Philip's father died very early, and he spent a long time with the old butler and became very close to him. He wore this medal originally to commemorate this relative who was more like a father to him than his own father.

However, his identity could not be used this time, and it was inconvenient to do business without a title, so he wore the old butler's medal. Anyway, the position of old butler was given by his viscount father, and this medal was made by their family, and no one knew about it.

Watching the caravan going away, the soldiers at the checkpoint cursed: "Damn it, a little lord is showing off to him, he really treats us as beggars!"

The soldier weighed the coin in his pocket and heard a pleasant sound. It was the sound of silver coins. He turned around and put the coin into his arms.

"According to what those merchants said, the road on the north side leads to our imperial dock, and the road on the south side leads to the Cattail City dock, which is located on the boundary between the two empires of Brocade and Moran."

Philip said, "Let's go south. Even if there are merchants at our Imperial Wharf, they are probably the Chamber of Commerce of the great nobles of the Empire. Let's stay away from them."

Philip and his companions had heard stories about the legendary city of Cattail City from the merchants along the way, but when they actually arrived at the Cattail City trading terminal on the west coast, they could not help but feel greatly disappointed.

There is only a simple wooden dock and a row of sheds with wooden plank roofs. Although there are many tents nearby and the sheds are crowded with people, they don't find any connection between this place and the reputation of the City of Legend or the City of Wealth.

"This is the trading dock of Cattail City, the legendary city of wealth, where you can buy telegraph machines? How come it's not as good as our barn?"

The truth told by the former personal guard, now the captain of the caravan's guard, made Philip's face darken. He felt that his intelligence was deeply insulted by this row of wooden sheds.

“Hahahaha…!” A burst of laughter came from the side.

"What are you laughing at?" As a personal soldier who had followed the city lord in battles for a long time, the captain of the guards was not polite at all to these small merchants.

The man laughing on the side looked like the boss of a small caravan. His face was red at the moment, as if he had drunk a lot.

"I'm just laughing at your ignorance, you country bumpkin! What about a barn? Are all the barns in your Brocade Empire filled with gold?!"

No wonder they couldn't urinate, it turns out he was a businessman from the Moran Empire.

The captain of the guards' face turned cold and his hand reached for his waist.

As Philip stopped his guards, the businessman laughed even louder, looking at them as if they were a bunch of fools.

Now, even Philip was a little annoyed.
