Although the owner of the auction house was a shady businessman, Chu Tian, ​​who didn't want to spend too much energy on dealing with the Yellow Turban Barracks blueprints, sold the blueprints directly and got a tael of silver.

Chu Tian asked: "Shopkeeper, do you have any architectural drawings here?"

The owner of the auction house pinched his mustache and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Our auction house is the largest auction house in the entire Langya Kingdom. We don't have any drawings!"

"Do you have the drawings of the sixth-level cavalry battalion?"

Mulan's special unit, the Iron Eagle Scout, is a sixth-level cavalry. If there is a sixth-level cavalry battalion in Xia Village, you can directly recruit the Iron Eagle Scout.

Xiangyong and Yellow Turban soldiers are all first-level infantry, and sixth-level cavalry can crush first-level infantry.

If the auction house had a drawing of the sixth-order cavalry battalion, Chu Tian would buy it no matter what.

As soon as Chu Tian finished speaking, the shopkeeper and the players in the auction house were stunned.

This is a ruthless person. He wants the architectural drawings of the sixth-level cavalry battalion as soon as he opens his mouth!

When no lord has a third-level village, who can afford to raise sixth-level cavalry?

The owner of the auction house was a little embarrassed and coughed twice as a cover: "It's really not true. Even Langya City doesn't have a sixth-level cavalry battalion. Maybe only Xiapi City where Master Tao Qian is located has a sixth-level cavalry battalion, and the drawings are not for sale.

.”

Chu Tian didn't want to embarrass himself too much, so he asked: "What is the highest level of cavalry battalion blueprint that can be purchased at your auction house?"

The owner of the auction house held out three fingers.

"How much silver?"

"One thousand taels."

The players in the auction house were in an uproar.

Just the blueprint of the third-level cavalry battalion is worth one thousand taels of silver, which is equivalent to the price of fifty ordinary war horses!

The shopkeeper finally felt proud: "Cavalry is not something that ordinary lords can afford."

Chu Tian still refused to give up. Without the blueprint of the cavalry battalion, Xia Cun's war horses would be of no use: "What about the blueprints of the first-level cavalry battalion and the second-level cavalry battalion?"

"The blueprint of the first-level cavalry battalion is worth twenty taels of silver, and the blueprint of the second-level cavalry battalion is worth one hundred taels of silver."

Expensive, very expensive.

We haven't started recruiting cavalry yet. Just the drawings of the cavalry battalion are so expensive, not to mention the expenses such as building a cavalry battalion, purchasing horses and equipment, and monthly salaries.

Unless you are on the steppes, raising a cavalry is expensive.

Do you want to buy a blueprint of a first-level cavalry battalion and take it back?

Chutian took stock of the money he brought and found that 50 taels of silver were left in the village. He brought some silver taels and a bag of copper coins, plus the reward for killing bandits on the way, and the one tael of silver he got from selling the Yellow Turban Barracks drawings, in total.

101 taels of silver.

There is no hope for the second-level cavalry battalion blueprint. If you buy the second-level cavalry battalion blueprint, you will only have one tael of silver left, and you will not be able to afford other blueprints.

"Where's the infantry battalion?"

"It's easy to say that our auction house not only has drawings of infantry battalions from the first to third levels, but also recently even a drawing of a fourth-level infantry battalion. The auction house clearly marked the price at 5 taels of silver for the first-level infantry battalion and 25 taels of silver for the second-level infantry battalion.

The third-level infantry battalion costs 250 taels of silver. As for the fourth-level infantry battalion, it costs 2,500 taels of silver. The one with the highest price will get it."

"2500 taels of silver!"

The players present were even more shocked.

If they were not trapped in the game, maybe the rich could exchange silver with other players through Earth coins, but now all players are trapped in this world and can only obtain the currency of this world through their own efforts. No one can collect it within seven days

For 2,500 taels of silver, only dozens of village chiefs would join forces to withdraw valuable funds from the village to buy the architectural drawings of a fourth-level infantry battalion.

However, there shouldn't be that many villages that would sacrifice their future for a fourth-level infantry battalion blueprint. Even if a fourth-level infantry battalion is built, there will be no money to recruit fourth-level infantry.

Chu Tian seriously suspected that the auction house was ripping off customers. The first-level Yellow Turban Battalion was only slightly inferior to the first-level infantry battalion. The auction house only spent one tael of silver to recycle the first-level Yellow Turban soldiers, while the first-level infantry battalion cost five taels of silver to sell.

"What if I want to buy the blueprint of the first-level Yellow Turban Barracks?"

"Three taels of silver."

"..."

He is indeed a black businessman.

After knowing the price of architectural drawings, Chutian selected a few more drawings.

A second-level infantry battalion construction drawing is worth 25 taels of silver. A first-level cavalry battalion construction drawing is worth 20 taels of silver. Just two military building drawings cost 45 taels of silver.

Then there are the drawings of the Thatched Cottage Private School, which is a cultural building and is worth 10 taels of silver. The four basic resource building drawings of the second-level farmland, the second-level mine, the second-level lumberyard, and the second-level quarry each cost 10 taels of silver. A total of 50 taels of silver.

.

Increasing the level of resource buildings will only bring higher bonuses and will not expand the scale of production. The scale of cultivated farmland, minerals, stone, and timber is positively related to the population size of the territory.

In this way, 95 taels of 101 taels of silver were spent, leaving only 6 taels of silver.

Chu Tian finally experienced what it means to spend money like water. He was quite rich at first, but now he only had 6 taels of silver and couldn't afford other drawings.

Xia Liang, the head of Xiaozhu Village, also bought several blueprints, but she was poorer than Chutian and could not afford military architectural blueprints, so she only bought resource blueprints and economic architectural blueprints.

Chutian's development direction is different. While taking into account resources, it focuses on self-protection. It first builds a second-level infantry battalion and a first-level cavalry battalion in the village.

"Your Xiaozhu Village only has one Xiangyong Camp. Don't you consider purchasing the second-level military blueprints?"

Chu Tian couldn't help but be a little confused when he saw that Xia Liang didn't buy military blueprints.

"Hey, Xia Village has a second-level infantry battalion and a first-level cavalry battalion. If our Xiaozhu Village is in trouble in the future, just hire your soldiers to help us block the enemy. So there is no problem in our Xiaozhu Village's military development later.

.Xia Village is only 5 kilometers away from Xiaozhu Village. We can definitely reach it after an hour of forced march, right?"

Xia Liang's answer was beyond Chu Tian's expectation.

This woman was very shrewd and did not hesitate to form an alliance with Xia Cun to eliminate Xia Cun's threat to Xiaozhu Village. She also planned to borrow soldiers from her allies in the future.

After the lords have reached an alliance, they can request reinforcements as long as they pay a price that the allies cannot refuse.

There is a powerful hero in Xia Village, and he bought two more military architectural drawings. The military score is much higher than that of Xiaozhu Village. Xia Liang directly gave up the military competition, devoted all his efforts to developing agriculture and economy, and then hired the heroes and soldiers of Xia Village.

.

"It's okay to ask for reinforcements, but the price for sending troops from Xia Cun is very high."

Chu Tian thought about it carefully, provided protection to his allies, and then collected protection fees, which was the [diplomatic income] in the lord's income.

Collecting protection fees from nearby player lords seems to be a good way to make a fortune...

Just when Chu Tian and the others were about to leave the exchange, a fat man stopped them: "Both of you, you are buying architectural drawings, you should be a lord player, right? I am Xiaopang, the vice-president of the Wolf Guild, our Wolf Guild has already bought them

Twenty-seven Lord players and two hundred and thirty free players. Everyone is trapped in "Lord" and cannot get out. Players in the closed beta said that the Yellow Turban Army in Xuzhou will come out to rob various villages after the Lord harvests food.
