"It's really hard to imagine that the leader who can organize the goblin tribe into such a neat and orderly manner is actually a human being."
Azi put down her cup and said with a hint of emotion: "It seems like things are going to change in the Twilight Forest."
"Change? No, I just want to make some money and improve the lives of our employees."
Zhou Li didn't take off his mask, but it seemed that Ah Zi didn't care either. He leaned slightly on the chair and said calmly: "We have no special products here and no minerals. If we don't develop some service industry, this area will be a commercial wasteland." district."
"Specialty? Mr. Zhou is joking." Azi smiled brightly, her eyebrows were like crescent moons, "Twilight Forest has been a battleground for countless union professionals since ancient times. And a safe entrance without the interference of other monsters, This alone is enough for you to make a lot of money.”
"Set an entrance fee?" Zhou Li shook his head and laughed, spread his hands, and said calmly: "You are joking, I don't have the strength. If I really set an entrance fee, my behavior will not only It’s a commercial practice, and the Brave Union will no longer give me any protection. If there were no Brave Union, I’m afraid my small temple wouldn’t be able to survive even three days before being “voluntarily expropriated” by other unions, wouldn’t it?”
Hearing this, Azi's smile deepened. The man in front of him is not a simple man. Just the fact that he can resist setting up checkpoints is enough to show that this leader is by no means a reckless person. And such people are the most popular among businessmen like Azi.
"So, I wonder if Mr. Zhou Li is going to run this...Happy Goblin Village?"
Eluma almost stopped dead when she heard Azi's "Happy Goblin Village". She turned her head and involuntarily smiled at the corner of her mouth. In fact, when Zhou Li proposed this weird name at the beginning, Eluma didn't understand it at all, and she didn't understand what Happy Village was. Later, with Zhou Li's explanation, she realized that this was a business model from Zhou Li's hometown. After realizing that Zhou Li seemed to be a little homesick, Eluma directly agreed to the name.
But it’s so interesting for others to say it!
Ignoring Eluma who was enjoying himself at the side, Zhou Li cleared his throat and corrected: "This is called Goblin Farmhouse. Although it conflicts with mainland grammar, it is indeed pronounced that way."
"As for how to operate this..."
Having said this, a strange smile appeared on Zhou Li's face. Of course, Azi couldn't see through the mask. If she could see through the weird smiling face under the mask, she would probably directly summon the spirit sea to let her take her out of here. But now, she was curious and ready to listen to Zhou Li's words.
"First of all, I would like to ask Ms. Azi, do you know the general situation of the other three entrances to the Twilight Forest?"
"Just call me A'Zi." A'Zi corrected Zhou Li's title, then thought for a moment and said: "Twilight Forest has four entrances in the southeast, northwest and northwest. The west is the most dangerous because of the Bai Linghu clan. The Yong in the north is There are also many ordinary adventurers who have died in the frozen realm. There are many mosquitoes in the south, and although you can rely on certain methods to avoid them, those mosquitoes still cause a lot of harm to adventurers."
After finishing speaking, Azi thought for a while and added: "Most of them are psychological harm."
Everyone is afraid of the six-meter-long cockroach.
Zhou Li, who had slaughtered the entire forest in his previous life, muttered mentally, and then continued to ask: "Then the question is, why didn't this group of adventurers gather their strength to kill the weak goblins when the environment at the three entrances was so dangerous? Kill and build the eastern part into a safe entrance specifically for adventurers to enter the Dusk Forest?"
"Of course I don't dare." After saying that, Azi pointed to the depths of the twilight forest outside the window. It was shrouded in darkness and depth, as if there were countless eyes lurking inside, spying on every move of outsiders. "God gave them the stupidest minds and weak bodies, but Twilight Forest disagreed and gave them the best." blessing of."
Azi paused for a moment, and then said slowly: "Everyone who has killed a goblin will be cursed by the Twilight Forest. The trees will scare him with their twisted appearance, and the ubiquitous viruses in the water will invade him. The monsters in the twilight will drag him into the darkness and kill him. The experience accumulated from thousands of lives is extremely precious."
Yes, the Goblin race is favored by the Twilight Forest. Anyone who kills a goblin will be cursed by the Duskwood. According to statistics, all those who have killed goblins so far have not survived as long as they stepped into the Dusk Forest.
Therefore, the three words Goblin are far more frightening than the white spirit tiger, the permanent frozen field, and the poisonous mosquito. After all, if you kill the goblin, you must be prepared to never step foot into the Dusk Forest, known as the treasure house of gold. And the trophies you can get from goblins, apart from wooden sticks, are crotch cloths made of leaves.
This is the reason why goblins occupy the safest entrance in the entire Twilight Forest, rob slimes every day like cerebral palsy, eat tributes, and defecate everywhere, but they have not been killed yet.
It's outrageous, but very reasonable.
After confirming that Zhou Li fully understood the advantages of goblins, Ah Zi couldn't suppress the ecstasy in her heart. Dusk Forest is not only a treasure trove for professionals, but also a cornucopia of chambers of commerce. In the past year, the profit from the mosquito repellent sold by the Zisha Chamber of Commerce reached an astonishing three thousand gold. Not to mention other miscellaneous products, the profits from the entire Twilight Forest accounted for almost half of the Zisha Chamber of Commerce. The total output is about forty.
Today, Ah Zi believes that as long as she negotiates the Goblin Farmhouse business, the profit prospects will not be very broad, but rather a bright future.
"In the past three years, the Purple Sha Merchant Association will cover all the clothing, food, housing, transportation, construction and other needs of the Goblin Farmhouse as long as possible."
Ah Zi looked at Zhou Li, and while Eluma on the side looked surprised, he quoted a generous price, "In addition, the Zisha Chamber of Commerce is willing to spend two thousand gold coins to fund the development of the farmhouse, and will It will be supplemented based on subsequent developments.”
"Wow~" Aluma beside her made a surprised sound. For Eluma, who had been "voluntarily" imprisoned in heaven, she actually had no concept of money. All the food, clothing, housing, and necessities are hand-made by craftsmen from the divine world, and they are all luxurious at the level of gods. But when Zhou Li arrived, her life as a rice bug came to an end.
During the time she came to the mortal world, Eluma adapted quickly. Even though the common clothes were not as comfortable and beautiful as Liuyun silk and satin, she happily accepted it. At the same time, Eluma also understands the concept of money. Although the price is that she always likes to buy a piece of clothing worth ten coppers and pay thirty coppers for it, but this transformation is nothing like a miracle for a demigod who has been demoted to the earth. difference.
Therefore, after hearing about two thousand gold, Eluma, who actually had a very good IQ, immediately calculated how huge this amount was. Whether it's improving a recently rough meal or buying a bunch of building materials just glitter dust, it's a breeze. Even glitter dust can easily be purchased in thousands of tons.
However, Eluma did not urge Zhou Li on the side to accept this attractive sum of money, because Eluma still remembered Zhou Li once told her that no one would give you kindness for no reason. They just want more from you. Eluma, who knew she knew nothing about this aspect, just sighed, and then continued to watch the negotiation between Azi and Zhou Li.
"oh?"
Zhou Li looked at Ah Zi, raised his eyebrows with interest and asked, "So, what's the price?"
"The farmhouse has the right to sell medicines, equipment, scrolls, and consumables." Azi met Zhou Li's gaze, opened her palm, and stretched out five white fingers, "Five years."
"Three years, plus 10% commission."
Zhou Li's answer was quick, and A'Zi's answer was even faster, "Four years, five percent."
"Three years, 10% commission." Zhou Li repeated it again, then he leaned on his chair and said to Ah Zi, who was about to make another counteroffer: "Map."
These two words made Ah Zi stunned. She frowned at first, wanting to say something, but when she just opened her mouth, Azi seemed to have heard something, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
"The map of the Twilight Forest." Seeing Ah Zi's expression, Zhou Li knew that it was Ah Zi's protector who reminded her, "In other words, I have the safety map from the farmhouse to the middle of the Twilight Forest."
"Five years, 15% commission." Azi made a decisive decision: "Prioritize me in future cooperation."
"make a deal."
Zhou Li smiled, then he stretched out his hand and gestured to Ah Zi: "Just use your contract."
Azi nodded. The contract Zhou Li mentioned was a special magic item, a contract paper made under the witness of "Yilu, the God of Justice." Contract paper is irresistibly binding on both parties who sign it, so most business contracts in the world use this kind of contract, eliminating the possibility of your allies launching a backstab on you.
But this kind of contract is not omnipotent. Decades ago, an invisible potion made the contract a time bomb. Many people inadvertently signed a contract that seemed fair, but after the contract took effect, all their wealth disappeared directly. , fell victim to invisible ink.
Although some people quickly reacted and added regulations such as "the parties to the contract shall not use any special ink" when making the contract to put an end to this phenomenon. However, using the other party's contract to express goodwill has gradually become a common practice. Azi was ready to use the other party's contract from the beginning, and Zhou Li's words also won him a lot of favor.
What a joke, I have no money to buy the contract paper.
Zhou Li thought so.
"Thanks for your trust."
Ah Zi nodded, and then stretched out her right hand. A trace of cracked space appeared on the silver ring inlaid with sky blue. Then, a piece of paper with gold edges appeared in front of Ah Zi. She pushed the paper towards Zhou Li, took out a delicate quill pen, and signaled: "Since you are using my contract, please ask Mr. Zhou Li to write the terms."
Zhou Li did not refuse, took the paper and pen, and began to write the terms seriously.
Actually, if Zhou Li really wanted to, with this contract that could not be violated, he could conjure up tricks to trick Ah Zi to death. Relying on Zhou Li's literary attainments, he was definitely a master of literary inquisition in the Qing Dynasty. Whether it's a logic trap or a word game, he can pick it up at his fingertips.
but……
Thinking of the deep hidden secret behind the death of this girl by his sword in his previous life, Zhou Li sighed slightly, softened a little, and made his decision.
Just a few less word games, more than a dozen logic traps are enough to ensure safety.
"He has no ill intentions and no mood swings. Don't worry."
In the void, Linghai heard the voice, and then repeated the information to Azi that the void told her.
After getting Linghai's answer, Azi took the pen with confidence and signed the contract.
Yes, Zhou Li had almost no mood swings when he was tricking people.
The fluctuation is smaller than when eating ginger.
