Chapter 302 Cross-border Trade

Beside the gate to the Western fantasy world, Riley's chief bodyguard arrived not far from the gate.

He stopped and called out loudly, "Who of you wants to come over and talk to me?"

Upon hearing this, Hong Liang, the captain of the special forces, walked towards the head of the guard.

The reason they can understand each other is because of the ability granted by the boundary gate.

The languages ​​of the Western fantasy world and the Dragon Kingdom are completely different, making communication impossible under normal circumstances. If Zhou Yongcheng doesn't give them the ability to understand each other's languages, it will be difficult for them to communicate normally.

Hong Liang stopped a few meters away from the head guard. He removed his face covering and said with a smile, "Hello, my name is Hong Liang, and I come from the Blue Star Dragon Kingdom."

The captain of the guards smiled and said, "My name is Brand, and I come from the Starry Sky Kingdom of the Eastern Continent."

The two began a friendly exchange, with one asking questions and the other answering.

They talked for an hour or two before ending their conversation.

Hong Liang and Brand's conversation could be heard clearly from the Dragon Kingdom side through the screen.

Riley, on the other hand, asked Brand to report to him.

After listening to Brand's report, Riley gained a general understanding of the Blue Star Dragon Kingdom.

The Dragon Kingdom has also gained a preliminary understanding of the Eastern Continent.

On the command vehicle next to the Dragon Kingdom's border gate.

"A magical world, an endless continent, the Eastern continent, empires, churches, kingdoms—it's truly a wondrous world."

"Who do you think created this portal?"

"Humans? Can humans create something so amazing? Only gods could do that."

"Even gods might not be able to do that. Since magic exists in the magical world, gods must also exist. If gods exist, why don't they come to our world through the interdimensional gate?"

"We don't know the origin of the portal either. Let's report the situation of the magical world to our superiors and see what their plans are."

The generals reported the situation of the magical world to their leaders. After discussion, the leaders unanimously agreed that the magical world was an undeveloped virgin land and the hope for the rise of their Dragon Kingdom.

So a leader came to the gate and, accompanied by two generals, entered the magical world.

Back at the mine in the Western fantasy world, Riley received a report that high-ranking officials from the Dragon Kingdom had come to their world to have a talk with him.

So Riley brought a few people to the gate, and the two powerful figures began to talk.

First, they introduced themselves to get to know each other.

"Our world is a technological world..."

The leader explained to Riley what things the Dragon Kingdom had to offer.

Riley also told the leaders about what Starshine Kingdom had to offer.

They didn't talk about what the other lacked, they only talked about what they had.

The leaders heard that Xinghui Kingdom had abundant mineral resources, which were exactly what they needed.

Their world is extremely thirsty for resources, and many countries fight fiercely over even a small amount of resources.

Now that their Dragon Kingdom has a magical world, they no longer need to spend a lot of money to buy resources from abroad.

Riley's mouth watered as he heard about all the wonderful things in the Dragon Kingdom.

“Since our countries each have their own advantages, how about we use each other’s advantages to make a trade?” Riley asked.

Although the leader did not show any expression on his face upon hearing this, he was overjoyed inside.

"can."

Both parties reached a consensus on the transaction, and the next step is to discuss what to trade.

The magical world is a cultivation world, and its utilization of resources is far less advanced than that of the modern technological world.

The current magical world is like the ancient Dragon Kingdom, where the utilization rate of resources is less than one ten-thousandth.

Riley's requirements were simple: he just wanted food, anything edible, he'd do anything.

Food is too simple for the Dragon Kingdom; there are just too many things to eat in the modern world.

Besides, the modern world is not the future world; food production is generally high, so there's no need to worry about food at all.

Therefore, it's too easy to use food as a means of trade.

Riley's side mainly deals with minerals, but because they utilize minerals so inefficiently, Riley only knows a few types.

Although the minerals Riley mentioned were ordinary minerals, it was a good start. The leaders weren't in a hurry; as long as they were willing to make the deal, things would be much easier later on.

As time passed, the first transaction between the Dragon Kingdom and the Starshine Kingdom was officially completed.

Riley received a large amount of grain from the Dragon Kingdom, and the Dragon Kingdom received a large amount of minerals from Riley.

The first deal was successfully completed, and the leader and Riley sat in the command vehicle by the boundary gate to discuss matters.

"We plan to build a city around our boundary gate. Once the city is completed, we will invite many merchants to move in. At that time, you will be able to use the boundary gate to buy things from our world," the leader said.

Upon hearing this, Riley's heart stirred, and he said, "I wonder what other minerals your country needs? I can use minerals to trade with your country for some goods."

Through this period of contact, Riley also learned more about the future world.

He learned about high-tech weapons, a type of weapon that could fire iron bullets. That weapon was very powerful, and ordinary swordsmen couldn't defend against it at all. He wanted to purchase a batch of those weapons to equip his soldiers.

"We don't want just any mineral; we only need the kind that can help us."

Riley was a bit stumped. He only knew a few types of minerals, and he didn't know what minerals the Dragon Kingdom needed.

"Don't you know how to identify minerals?" Riley asked.

The leader smiled knowingly and said, "Identifying minerals requires special equipment, and only our people know how to use it."

"this..."

The leader smiled and said, "I have a suggestion, would you like to hear it?"

"What proposal?"

"We'll provide the equipment and personnel, and help you identify minerals for free. If the minerals are useful to us, you can have them mined and then trade them with us. How about that?"

Riley was somewhat tempted by the idea, but he was also afraid that the Dragon Kingdom might cause trouble in their country.

The leader noticed Riley's concerns and said, "Our men have no fighting skills. You can have someone follow them."

Riley agreed to the leader's proposal, and so the Dragon Kingdom's prospectors began mineral exploration in the Starshine Kingdom.

The trade between the Dragon Kingdom and the Star Kingdom is gradually getting back on track.

Besides trading, many people from the Dragon Kingdom also practice martial arts near the border gate of the Starshine Kingdom.

Riley also had a large number of troops receive cultivation techniques from the Boundary Gate at this side of the gate.

The soldiers he brought with him were basically all granted martial arts techniques by the gatekeeper.

After asking around, Riley learned that everyone received different cultivation techniques.

Some people receive a complete set of techniques, while others only receive the basic techniques.

Later, through his interactions with the people of the Dragon Kingdom, he learned that some people with good aptitude received better cultivation techniques, while those with poor aptitude received worse ones.

So Lai used this method to select a high-caliber army, which he intended to build into the most powerful army.

During this period, Riley also switched to martial arts cultivation, and his cultivation level reached the Divine Core Realm.

After practicing martial arts techniques, he realized that magic could not compare to martial arts at all.

Martial arts techniques can be used for both ranged and close-range attacks, making them far more powerful than magic.

When he reaches the Divine Core Realm, he can also use divine arts, which are more powerful than magic.
