Chapter 41: The Mysterious Blood Shop
Li Zheng also secretly let out a sigh of relief after understanding the origin of his merits.
War is like this, in these times of widespread turmoil, just wait for the opportunity to join in and make a big contribution, and the merits will naturally be endless.
Then Li Zhong shifted his attention to map options.
As soon as it was touched, the meaning and opening conditions of the map were clearly understood.
The map's scope is limited to Li Zhong's absolute territory of governance and must also have official or popular recognition.
That is to say, if Li Zhuang occupies a piece of land, and at the same time, he does not get the recognition of the Great Han court, but instead, he levies heavy taxes and makes the people detest him, then this piece of land will not be considered within his jurisdiction, and the map will not include it.
On the other hand, even if he did not receive recognition from the Han court, as long as he received recognition from the people, it was also considered his sphere of influence.
The map was first opened because he got his first official identity and became the actual ruler of Lingzhou County.
From this point on, Li Zhong can be certain that Fu Shuo's promise of the position of Protector of the Qiang, is already in his pocket. Otherwise, he would not have been assigned by default.
As soon as he touched the map option, a stream of information flowed out, and in an instant, Li Zhēng opened his eyes.
In front of him, a square and upright light screen floated on the desk.
This light screen is the virtual map of the entire Lingzhou.
Above are spots and dots, including the county town, as well as the subordinate towns, villages, and even individual villages, and mountains, rivers, roads, and transportation, all marked very specifically.
Apart from this, there were also some black dots, densely embedded on the map. Li Zheng pointed to one of them with his hand, and the information about these black dots appeared in his mind.
It turned out to be all kinds of mineral deposits!
Gold, silver, copper, iron, tin and even oil, coal, salt mines, etc. Each mine's information is very complete, including its reserves, depth underground and mining difficulty, etc., etc.!
Li Zhong was overjoyed in his heart, and a smile he couldn't suppress spread across his face.
If he hadn't been suppressing himself, he would have surely let out a loud roar and burst into uncontrollable laughter!
What a huge fortune!!!
With this map, a lot of time is saved for exploration. Just follow the map and prepare everything according to the information indicated before excavation, then just excavate!
In this way, the scale of armor forging will expand rapidly, and soon all the soldiers under his command can be equipped!
There are also salt mines, which are the most important part of daily life. As long as they are mined on a large scale, the people under their rule will naturally benefit, and the governance will become more stable.
Of course, so many mineral deposits on the map seem exciting, but in fact, most of them are difficult to mine. Some are even buried deep underground for thousands or tens of thousands of meters, and with the mining technology of this era, they are basically out of reach.
But Li Zhong had already made up his mind and would absolutely not let these good things go to waste.
With a wave of his hand, Li Zhēng put away the map and once again submerged his consciousness into the ocean.
The mysterious shop was first opened in March after the system's matching function was unified. At that time, Li Zhēn bought a few sets of equipment and two weapons.
Three months later, after refreshing the mysterious store three times, Li Zhong opened this mouth-watering and hateful place again.
Now Li Zhēn is full of confidence, with over 300,000 gold in his package, and a merit value of nearly 20,000. What can't be bought?!
With a calm and focused mind, eight items in the mysterious shop caught his eye.
The first was a blueprint, and Li Zhēn hastily touched his consciousness to it, only to find that it was a formula for cultivating a First-Order War Knight.
Good stuff!
Since Li Zhong synthesized the Battle Steed, due to the formula's sake, I haven't trained any Battle Steeds yet. Now that I have enough money on hand, I've bought one!
The second one was also a formula map, and what surprised Li Zhēn was that it was actually a synthesis formula for a special war steed!
Li Zhēng had always thought that the synthesis of war horses was random, and only after a successful synthesis would the system default to this formula. But unexpectedly, there were even people selling it in the mysterious shop!
Li Zhēn's heart thumped loudly as he carefully sensed the contents of this prescription.
Food + Mine + Beast = Synthesis Formula!
Mineral-eating beast, eats various minerals and produces secondary minerals after digestion! The mineral-eating beast is heat-resistant, fearless of cold, has degenerated vision, keen responsiveness, and an extremely keen sense of smell. Cultivated to its peak, it can move within 20,000 meters of the earth's crust and survive in environments as low as minus 50 degrees!
What is this?!
Sleep is coming with a pillow!
Li Zheng was worried about how to extract minerals from deep underground, but unexpectedly the system suddenly gave him such a big gift!
Moreover, the synthesis method of this formula is not single, but diverse. To put it simply, if you want to synthesize a food beast specifically for mining iron ore, then during the synthesis process, you need to add the purest iron extracted from the mineral extraction center.
Similarly, for other minerals such as gold and silver, you only need to add the corresponding pure metals during synthesis to obtain a mining beast that specializes in excavating those metals.
"What good luck! It's really good luck!"
Li Zhong sighed in his heart. Originally, he also wanted to try using the Warhorse system to synthesize related special warhorses because of the deeply buried minerals. But Li Zhong knew that the Warhorse system was random and might lead to consuming all the gold coins in the package without getting what he wanted.
But now the blueprint is delivered to the door, what to do? Buy!
Li Zhuang's mood was extremely pleasant after buying two urgently needed formulas in a row, and he also had great expectations for other products that followed.
Unfortunately, the third item disappointed him.
It's just an ordinary kitchen knife used for chopping vegetables.
In an instant, Li Zhēng's heart calmed down a lot.
Forget it, let's move on.
The fourth item was a set of bow and arrow, priced at three thousand gold, which is one-third more expensive than the Blood Dragon Spear. However, it was exactly what Li Zhēng needed, so he bought it!
The fifth item was a hundred-year-old ginseng, priced at a thousand gold coins. It wasn't bad, so I bought it.
The sixth item shocked Li Zhēn greatly!
As his consciousness sank into it, Li Zhong saw that it was actually a vast continent floating in the void, with no discernible length or width. Upon closer inspection of the information contained within, he discovered that it was actually a War Rider's homeland!
What is the War Rider's Homeland? Li Zhēn carefully sensed, but it turned out that this continent was actually a special place for cultivating and breeding various war riders, accelerating their growth, speeding up their reproduction, and even causing them to mutate, creating a vast and magical world most suitable for the war riders' survival and prosperity.
How much money!?!
Li Dang swallowed his saliva, and his heart was lifted!
Five hundred million gold plus three hundred billion merits.
In an instant, Li Zhong fell from the clouds.
"Ah!"
Li Zhong's heart turned cold, and for a moment he felt a little disheartened!
Such good things, can't touch even if seen, really pitiful.
If I had this Warframe sanctuary, crazy violent soldiers wouldn't be a dream! What Cao Cao, what Liu Bei, what Roman Empire, go to hell with them all!
What earth, what solar system, our journey is in the starry sea!
"What a pity!" Li Qing sighed.
This thing, is not something he can touch now. Five hundred million gold, what a huge number?! Three hundred billion merits, don't know how many worlds will be unified after that, whether it will happen or not.
After being stimulated by the War Rider's home, Li Zhong's heart suddenly became lazy.
Rushing through the remaining two items, the seventh one was a mobile phone, useless. The eighth one made Li Zhen slightly excited, it was a spherical object called Biological Growth Accelerator!
Powerful in function, applicable to any living organism, can shorten the growth time of all living organisms without any sequelae, with a reduction degree of up to two-thirds!
But the price is expensive, twenty million gold!
And this biological growth accelerator is just a primary system product, affecting an area of only about five miles in circumference.
Although there are limitations in scope, the role of grasslands is particularly strong.
The pasture now has many good things, the biggest drawback is that there are few in number. And the growth accelerator has played a role in enhancing the pasture's potential, shortening the growth time of special biological species in the pasture, accelerating reproduction, and achieving the purpose of expanding the scale of war riding and harvesting more grain.
Bought it with gritted teeth!
From then on, Li Zhēng was left with only about 100,000 yuan in his hands. In the blink of an eye, two-thirds of it had been spent, what a pity!
But Li Zhong felt it was worth it!
With the Battle Rider cultivation formula, the overall quality of the Battle Rider will also undergo a significant growth and become even more powerful.
With the food and mineral synthesis formula, the severe problem of mineral mining faced by the grassland can be solved. In greatly enhancing the production speed of the forging center, quickly equipping Li Zhong's soldiers with arms, while strengthening combat effectiveness, also helps with civilian development.
With the biological growth accelerator, whether it's Qingjia War Rider, Red Jade Bird, Ci Pi Zhu, Giant Beast, or even Mao Xu, Can Chai, and even medicinal materials in the medicine field, they can all expand their scale and increase production within a short period of time!
This has an unspeakable great benefit for the development of pastures!
Two formulas in the package were transmitted to their respective functional centers. Li Zhēng took out the Luò Xīng Gōng and Biological Growth Accelerator.
He carelessly tossed the Shooting Star Bow aside and walked out of his own mansion with the Biological Growth Accelerator in hand.
Standing outside the door, Li Zhēng thought for a moment and decided to place the biological growth accelerator on the roof of the War Horse Hall. The operating principle of the growth accelerator is actually collecting the source of all things - sunlight, 100% utilizing the energy in the sunlight, converting it into universal energy most suitable for biological growth, and releasing it.
So he thinks it should be placed in an open high place.
Across the entire meadow, the tallest structures are the Warhorse Hall and several other main functional buildings.
However, considering the impact of the accelerator, the Warhorse Hall is actually not the most suitable, and its position is not the best.
However, apart from Zhang Ji's mansion, Li Jing had no other choice at present and could only make do for the time being.
It's not too late to move it after building a specialized accelerator storage building in a suitable location later on.
