Versatile Mage: Plants Die, and Nashida Survives

Chapter 70: A Yuanjing Mine Worth Hundred Billion
Shao Zheng selected some families and forces to participate in the development of this area. Judging from the dozens of mineral veins here, it is necessary to build several fortresses to guard them, and a large city to develop resources!
And a new large city often means a lot of opportunities!
Moreover, there are a large number of aristocratic families

I hope to obtain the development rights of these magical mineral veins from the Ministry of Health!

If one wants to jointly develop a mineral vein with the Ministry of Health, not only does one need to pay the Ministry a large deposit, but one also needs to be responsible for all the initial investment, and after the mining begins, a large portion of it must be distributed to the Ministry of Health in proportion.

But even with such conditions, a large number of noble families are still flocking to it.

Even to get a place
Not hesitating to further suppress one's own interests!
Or they promised that the family would send more super-class or high-level mages to assist in the development of the Ministry of Health.

In short, the Ministry of Health has made a fortune by relying on the development rights of these dozen mineral veins. In addition, when these mineral veins were discovered, the Ministry of Health had already sent people to dig out the minerals that were exposed or easy to dig, as well as various materials obtained after killing demons.

Including but not limited to strange scales, strange bones, strange claws, or soul seed fragments and spirit seeds~
Hua Zhanhong silently calculated

Various resources earned during this period
Even after deducting various expenses, the remaining amount would be enough for them to train thirty or forty super-class mages, or hundreds of high-level mages!
And this is just the edge area of the northwest!

Not to mention that these mineral veins will bring in a steady stream of profits in the future!
Of course, a certain vein that can produce rare minerals such as Yuanjing has not been leased out.

Even, not many people know about it.

Many people may not have heard of Yuan Jing.
But this is an extremely rare material!
The reason why it is precious is that Yuan Jing is a necessity for artificially synthesizing soul seeds!
There are very few natural soul seeds. Most of the soul seeds absorbed by high-level mages are actually artificially refined using soul seed fragments or spirit seeds.

Although it is difficult to refine this kind of artificial soul into one with a domain, it can at least provide a four to six times increase in power!

This also causes the price of Yuanjing to remain high!

Any small piece
It can be sold at a high price of hundreds of millions!
So when the Ministry of Health discovered such a good thing, it was natural that it would keep it for itself!

The only pity is that this rare resource is only a companion mineral. The vein that produces Yuanjing is an extremely high-quality earth-type awakening stone vein, because the vein is located near the ground vein node.

Therefore, in the vein, not only the quality of awakening stones is high enough, but also there are many other rare earth resources.

Second
The reason why Shao Zheng and Hua Zhanhong were willing to hand over the development rights of the mineral veins to those aristocratic families.

The main reason is that these mineral veins can indeed bring benefits to the family, but these benefits are supplied gradually every year, which can ensure that the family will prosper in the next few decades!
But it is impossible to rapidly expand the power of this family in a short period of time~
On the contrary, the Ministry of Health, which received a lot of benefits

Comprehensive strength can be greatly improved in a short period of time!

It won’t be long before these newly trained strong men from the Ministry of Health will be able to continue to expand outward!
As for the aristocratic families, it’s not that they can’t see through Shao Zheng and Hua Zhanhong’s thoughts, it’s just that they are too lazy to care, whether they are aristocratic families or clans!
What they value most is stability!
What does the strength of the Ministry of Health have to do with them?

Suppressing the Ministry of Health? Stop kidding!
It’s good enough that the Ministry of Health doesn’t suppress them!

Don't overestimate the power of any single noble family. Most ordinary noble families only have three or five super-class members, while the stronger ones may have seven or eight or even ten.

No matter whether it is the Ministry of Defense before it became stronger or the Ministry of Defense after it became stronger, it makes little difference to them, as they are all existences that can crush them with ease!

Maybe those guys with ulterior motives would not want to see this scene, but it has nothing to do with them!
The next day, early in the morning.

Zhao Hongli, the helmsman of the Zhao Group, personally came to the pioneering camp of the Ministry of Health.

The Zhao clan was a commercial clan.

It has a huge influence internationally!

But the situation in China is hard to describe. It’s not that the Zhao Group doesn’t want to develop in China, it’s just that there are too many clans in China!
In the past, Zhao Hongli had not found a good opportunity for the Zhao Group to make a strong comeback!
But this time.
Zhao Hongli decisively clung to the Ministry of Health!
Make full use of your wealth and join this feast!
The Zhao Group not only obtained the joint development rights for two mineral veins, but also obtained the construction qualifications for two Weibu fortresses and several areas in the new city.

Before other families set out, the Zhao Group's engineering magician team had already arrived.

To be honest, this speed
All of this surprised Hua Zhanhong a little.

"Welcome, Patriarch Zhao!"

No matter what, I still have to meet this cooperative rich man.

Hua Zhanhong gave Zhao Hongli enough courtesy.

"Hello, Commander Hua!"

"The Zhao Group's engineering magician team is ready. If the Ministry of Health has no new opinions, we will start construction according to the previous plan." It can be seen that Zhao Hongli attaches great importance to this rare opportunity.

I want to leave a good impression in Hua Zhanhong’s mind!
It is worth mentioning that.
On his left follows his eldest son!
"No problem." Hua Zhanhong nodded.

The Ministry of Health also has its own engineering magician group
However, as the Ministry of Defense's corps expanded to the surrounding areas and established many temporary camps, the Ministry of Defense's engineering mage corps was very busy.

Otherwise, the construction of the fortress would not have been contracted out.

"You Qian, I'll leave this matter to you."

"Yes, father!"

As Zhao Youqian left with a group of Zhao Group's top executives, the camp became lively. The guard mages stationed in the camp sent out two teams with the Zhao Group's engineering mages to the site where the fortress was to be built.

Here, Hua Zhanhong took Zhao Hongli to the logistics department of the camp.

There are mountains of strange scales and bones here.
And a lot of magic minerals

There are also more than a dozen corpses of monarch demons waiting to be dealt with.

Hua Zhanhong had no intention of selling these material resources, but was preparing to refine them into magic tools to increase the combat effectiveness of the pioneering army!
For example, those huge monarch demons
The more precious materials on their bodies can be used to refine two or three heaven-level magic tools, and the remaining fur or scales are enough to refine dozens of soul-level armor magic tools.

Among all the magic tools, armor is the one that can best improve the survival rate of the mage!

Just deal with all these monarchs and demons.

Enough to refine hundreds of soul-level armor magic tools!
With these hundreds of soul-level armor magic tools, plus the benefits he got from the aristocratic families, Hua Zhanhong can form an elite group of high-level mages.

But unfortunately, there are not many senior blacksmiths in the Ministry of Health.

In addition, the front line has been transporting various materials back.
The existing blacksmiths could not meet Hua Zhanhong's requirements even if they swung their hammers to create afterimages, so he set his sights on Zhao Hongli.

As a business clan, the Zhao Group has auction houses almost all over the world.

Their industries are everywhere.
Hua Zhanhong didn't believe that they didn't have their own blacksmith!

After hearing Hua Zhanhong's idea, Zhao Hongli immediately guaranteed that the Zhao Group would fully cooperate!
It is worth mentioning that

The second family to arrive was Mingzhu's herdsman

The Mu family patriarch, Mu Zhanxing, led the team personally, and also brought two super-level elders and dozens of high-level mages.

Sending out so many high-level combat forces is also a huge gamble for the Mu family. If they lose the bet, they will become the last among the four major families of Mingzhu!
If their luck is even worse, they might even be trampled under the feet of other families that covet the title of the four major families.

Jinlin, deserted city

After the friendly match

The exchange student team from the Imperial Capital Academy and the Pearl Academy rested for a few days, and then, under the arrangement of Dean Songhe, went to the Jinlin Deserted City to gather information about the monsters.

Naturally, everyone was unwilling to undertake such a dangerous training mission.

But in the end, we can only follow orders!

It is worth mentioning that

The captain of the Pearl Academy is Ye Qiu, and the captain of the Imperial Capital Academy is Mu Ningxue.

Therefore, Ye Qiu basically had the final say over the two exchange student teams. Lu Zhenghe and Liao Mingxuan from the Imperial Capital Academy were not satisfied with the result. However, what made them extremely frustrated was
If they want to resist

Ye Qiu didn't even need to take action, Mu Ningxue's cold gaze would turn to them.
