1081: Big Business

Li Village.

Li Changkong and some Villagers with strength in the Village were burying their heads in digging soil.

At this moment, a huge pit had already appeared on the land where they were located.

And some scattered things were all thrown onto the land outside the pit.

When the heavy snow was falling, the things outside the pit were half covered by the white snow.

"That's about it."

Li Changkong stopped his movements, rolled over and left the pit, looking at the pile of harvest on the ground in front of him.

From underground, he had dug out a total of five Goblin corpses.

Beside the five corpses, some burial items were turned up again.

Those burial items were Li Changkong's main harvest.

Wiping away the snow on the ground, before Li Changkong's eyes were five heavy iron hammers, as well as a few iron pliers and other tools for forging ironware.

Besides this, there were also several books.

Holy Light Quick Method》

《Forging Weapon Experience Collection》

《Steps for Refining High-Grade Fine Iron》

...

Compared to other things in the tomb, these books were surprisingly the biggest harvest!

These were the Goblin Gaopeng Family's experience summaries for forging weapons, equipment, and various other things!

Relying on this, their Li Village could completely mass-produce enough Artifact Forgers to be self-sufficient!

You should know, Li Village's current mineral resources are not few.

They were just worrying that these mineral resources could not be bought or sold and could only be left idle, but now they can directly absorb them themselves.

When Li Village has its own Artifact Forgers, these mineral resources can be turned into various ironware.

It can be equipment, and it can also be used for infrastructure!

"Village Chief, those people who left with flashlights earlier have brought people over."

When Li Changkong handed these harvests to Li Bo and asked him to arrange them, a Villager ran over to report.

Hearing this, Li Changkong's eyes flickered slightly, looking outside the Village.

With a glance, he could indeed see some beams of flashlights.

And under the illumination of the lights, the figures of Wyatt and the City Lord beside him, as well as some powerhouses behind them, also appeared.

It seems that the situation in Busen City has really reached a point where it cannot be delayed.

Coming to Li Village again in such a short time indicates that they rushed towards this place as soon as they learned about the flashlights.

...

"Li Village."

Arriving at the entrance of the Village, the Acting City Lord of Busen City glanced at the Village's plaque and then looked towards the center of the Village ahead.

Now that they were closer.

When he saw that the center of Li Village was filled with a bright expanse of Holy Light, an irrepressible excitement still arose on his face.

Wyatt was right, Li Village really possesses this kind of thing that can restrain Darkness, and those things are even better than flashlights, and can completely replace spiritual lamps and the Holy Light Array!

"Do these Otherworlders have some special talent in producing items that dispel Darkness?"

"Su Liang is an Otherworlder, and the people in this Li Village are also Otherworlders."

The Vice City Lord of Feikang City, who was also the current Acting City Lord, said with some doubt in his tone.

As the Old Man's doubtful words spread, a General behind him said with a condescending tone: "They are all cursed fellows.

Darkness must naturally feel familiar to them.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that they were able to invent these things to resist Darkness."

"At this time, don't talk about Otherworlders or curses or anything like that."

The Acting City Lord of Busen City, Maurice, turned his head and glanced at the General who spoke.

After these words spread, the people behind him wisely shut up.

Only in their eyes, there was still a condescending attitude.

This was something that could not be changed.

All along, the citizens of Vog Country were accustomed to being condescending, and they inherently looked down on Otherworlders from the bottom of their hearts.

"Actually, whether you talk about curses or not, we don't really care."

Suddenly, a voice came from the side of this group of people.

Li Changkong's figure appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Hello, Vice City Lord Maurice, I am the Village Chief of Li Village, Li Changkong."

Looking at the Old man standing at the very front in the crowd, Li Changkong said rather politely.

It was only limited to politeness, not mixed with any emotion.

"Li Chieftain, haha, the people below just like to talk nonsense."

Maurice, seeing Li Changkong who appeared at this moment and knowing that he had heard the discriminatory words about Otherworlders from his people just now, couldn't help but laugh awkwardly.

"City Lord Maurice, you came to our Li Village for these devices that can emit Holy Light, right?"

Li Changkong did not dwell on this topic but went straight to the point and asked.

"That's right!

Li Chieftain, how many flashlights do you have?

And how many of these devices that can emit spiritual lamps do you have?

Our Busen City wants them all!"

Maurice was still reasonable, at least he didn't directly snatch them.

"As for these things, we have a lot.

You can have as many as you want."

Li Changkong's reply was quite domineering.

Such a reply also made Maurice and the people who came with him feel greatly relieved.

"Then how do you calculate the price?"

Since he was going to buy, Maurice naturally had no intention of not paying.

With Su Liang as a precedent, he was now very worried that this friendly seller would refuse the transaction if they were dissatisfied with their attitude.

If that happened, they would be back to their initial predicament.

It was also precisely because they were concerned that Li Village might not cooperate and trade with them that the two Acting City Lords at this time were still suppressing themselves and had not taken action against Su Liang.

Only when these things from Li Village are gradually set up and perfected within the City, and they no longer need to rely on the Holy Light Array, will they be able to take action against Su Liang!

"Vice City Lord Maurice, before you purchase these devices, I think I should first introduce you to the basic operating principles of these devices that emit Holy Light."

Li Changkong roughly understood the current state of Busen City, and at the same time understood that this City would definitely be the first major buyer for Li Village's light bulb industry.

Regardless of the attitude of the people inside towards Otherworlders, as long as they pay later, that's enough.

"The operating principles of these things?"

Maurice said in surprise, then nodded: "Good!

These things are epoch-making items, and they are indeed worth learning!"

As he said this, many people behind Maurice's body had flickering eyes.

It would naturally be best to further understand those things.

Everyone wants to create such good things themselves!

Led by Li Changkong, a group of powerhouses came under a light bulb hanging on a wooden wall.

After stopping, Li Changkong pointed to the light bulb: "Holy Light is born through light bulbs, but normal light bulbs cannot produce Holy Light.

They need energy..."

...

Based on basic knowledge of electricity, Li Changkong spent more than half an hour roughly explaining the relationship and connection between wires, electrical energy, electric lights, and light to these people.

After the final summary was over, the visitors all nodded in realization.

"So, to make the lights turn on, we also need to rely on these wires to transmit electrical energy into the light bulbs?

Doesn't that mean if we want to buy these streetlights, we also need to buy wires and utility poles?"

Someone said with realization.

Hearing this, Li Changkong nodded slightly.

The main reason he explained these things to everyone was to make these people understand that wires also belong to supporting facilities and cost money.

"If you connect these wires to Busen City and cover the entire Busen City, are you capable of doing that?"

Maurice asked with some worry in his tone.

To be honest, after coming here, he clearly understood that having a flashlight per person still could not guarantee safety.

Because flashlights also need electricity!

And only by connecting the wires to the City and letting electrical energy enter every household can subsequent electric light equipment be set up, forming a Holy Light matrix that dispels Darkness!

Although troublesome, this thing is clearly a permanent solution!

As long as it is done, then the only consumption in the future will be electrical energy, and it will be very stable!

"We can do it, but in terms of price, I'm afraid it will be a challenge for you."

Li Changkong said calmly.

Hearing this, an unnatural look also flashed across the faces of Maurice and the people behind him.

Indeed.

After learning that these streetlights actually involved such complex things, they could also guess that the technology and effort required, converted into money, would definitely not be a small sum!

It was also precisely because they learned about the complexity of these projects that the only few people among those brought by Maurice who were thinking of snatching them by force also restrained their thoughts.

This thing, its manufacturing technology is very complex, and only the people of Li Village themselves know it.

If they snatched it by force, it would be meaningless, and they would instead lose this partner!

"How many gold coins?"

Maurice said with a serious tone.

If it were under normal circumstances, if Li Village had this kind of technology, it would definitely be required to be handed over by the entire Vog Country.

Now, under the spread of the Black World, it was a different state.

"We don't accept gold coins.

For the sale of equipment, we only accept black crystals."

"One kilogram of black crystal for 100 meters of high-voltage wire."

"Busen City is about thirty kilometers away from our Li Village.

Connecting to Busen City will require three hundred kilograms of black crystal."

"And to roughly cover Busen City, you will need to pay at least an additional two thousand kilograms of black crystal.

This is just the cost of the wires."

"To fix these wires, you will need high-voltage towers.

After all, it is to supply power to your City, so the configuration cannot be low.

One high-voltage tower is ten kilograms of black crystal.

Calculating at one tower every three hundred meters, you will need one hundred towers, which is one thousand kilograms of black crystal."

"For the basic electrical infrastructure equipment, a total of three thousand three hundred kilograms of black crystal is needed."

"To prevent the towers from being damaged by Darkness monsters, some light bulbs also need to be installed on them for illumination.

This part also costs money, but it will not exceed five kilograms of black crystal."

Under normal circumstances, for such a large deal, Li Changkong would definitely offer as many discounts as possible.

But who made it so that among these people, there were still those who liked to look down on them, the so-called Otherworlders, with a condescending attitude?

This business is a big business.

But there are no discounts, and the profit is even maximized!
