Name: Ching Shuer Lake type saltwater lake natural wonder level three star resources sea fish salt effect.
If settled near Ching Shuer Lake can obtain a fixed civilization point of 200 points daily, livability one, and a 30 salt drying bonus with efficiency increased by 20.
Looking at this attributes panel, Lu G was undoubtedly overjoyed.
In his eyes, the value of Chin Shuer Lake was far greater than that of the diamond mine.
There was no doubt that he would build a branch city next to Chin Shuer Lake, but the construction department was currently busy with various matters and it was estimated that there would be no capacity to build a city within a month or two.
However, stepping back, it was definitely feasible to set up a fishing village here and establish a salt drying workshop.
Salt was a valuable commodity, an essential seasoning in life.
Its importance mainly stemmed from its high production and rich resources which naturally made its price relatively affordable.
Unlike spices like pepper and cumin whose current production was relatively limited, these spices were more expensive and not affordable for everyone.
Upon returning to Ming Jing City while assigning various tasks, the project of establishing a fishing village and salt drying workshop beside Ching Shuer Lake was also put on the agenda with a key mark added to indicate the importance of this matter.
Another new day arrived.
And after Lu Gi finished handling all his tasks, he glanced at the sky outside, stretched vigorously, and asked, "Helong, is there any schedule arranged for later?" reporting to your majesty.
According to the schedule, the next meeting is with the merchant Shinjun.
Gilong as the captain of the guards had also become quite versatile, occasionally acting as a semi-secary, helping Lu Gi organize the schedule.
Look at my memory.
Lu G slapped his forehead, his expression showing some helplessness.
He had been a bit busy and disoriented lately due to various matters.
Is the person here yet? reporting to your majesty.
He is already waiting outside.
Should I call Shinjun in now? Let him in.
While saying this, Lu Gi scooped a basin of cold water to wash his face.
Soon, accompanied by footsteps, a young man dressed in a silk long gown entered quickly under the guidance of the guards.
Commoner Shan Jun pays respects to your majesty.
Get up, wiping his wet hands.
Luog looked at Shun Jun and casually said, "This is our second meeting, right?" Reporting to your majesty, "Yes, indeed, it is our second meeting.
You've been doing well in business lately, successfully promoting commercial development within the Myriad Realm civilization.
Even though you have already made a fortune, I should reward you with something.
" Now, Lu Gi had become a figure of great importance, and his demeanor naturally carried a sense of authority.
Even casual remarks from him made Shinjun feel immense pressure.
For a moment, Shinjun was unsure if Lu Gi was implying something, and he thought he had done something to incur Lu G's dissatisfaction, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
Then, with a thud, he knelt down again.
Chapter 386.
The merchant's instinct, the commoner, has reached this day, thanks to his majesty's grace, and does not dare to seek further rewards.
Looking at Shinjun, who was kneeling on the ground in a prostrate manner, Lu Gi was momentarily taken aback, but soon burst into laughter.
Sometimes overthinking is not a good thing.
As long as you don't engage in illegal or disciplinary activities and conduct your business honestly, there will be no issues.
Get up.
After saying this, Shen Jun slightly raised his head and met Luo G's teasing expression, realizing he had overthought things and made a fool of himself.
Shun Jun felt a wave of embarrassment and a clear sense of lingering fear.
Just from his earlier words, Luo Gi could easily accuse him of great disrespect.
With that thought in mind, Shan Jun hurly spoke again.
Your majesty is magnanimous and broad-minded.
I, the commoner Shun, thank your majesty for your guidance.
I will surely keep your majesty's words in mind, reflect daily, and will never betray your majesty's trust.
After delivering a stream of flattery, Shan Jun carefully got up.
Lu Gi, finding it amusing, had no other thoughts and simply handed a diamond to the guard beside him, instructing the guard to give it to Shan Jun below.
Take a look at this.
Receiving the diamond handed to him by the guard.
Shan Jhun carefully examined it and was soon dazzled by its brilliance.
Your majesty, may I ask what this is? It's a diamond.
A diamond? As a successful businessman, Shanzhun quickly sensed an opportunity from this diamond.
Is your majesty looking to sell this diamond? That's rightly.
Shinjun, how much do you think that diamond in your hand can sell for? Facing Lu OG's question, Shinjun did not bother to take another look at the diamond in his hand and directly replied without hesitation.
That depends on how much your majesty you want to sell it for.
Hearing this answer, Lu G's lips curled up.
Shin Jun was indeed a clever businessman.
Instantly seeing through the essence of the diamond, he understood that the value of an item does not lie in the item itself, but in its operation.
This diamond was mine from the orc tribes.
A glint of understanding flashed in Shun Jun<unk>'s eyes.
Your majesty wants to open up trade channels between the orc tribes and us humans, thereby expanding our markets and deepening exchanges between both sides.
Exactly.
Lu G nodded again.
The commoner dares to ask your majesty a question.
What question may I ask your majesty? What is the output of this diamond? It must be said that Shan Jun<unk>s instinct as a businessman was indeed sharp and he struck at the heart of matter.
Lu Gi did not hide anything and straightforwardly stated, "The output is scarce.
" Upon receiving this answer, Shenzhun felt more assured.
Please forgive the commoner's frankness.
If we want to open trade channels and expand both markets, we will certainly need a large influx of merchants.
Relying solely on this scarce diamond to achieve that might be a bit difficult.
Of course, there are other items as well.
The diamond is merely a way to establish a name.
While speaking, Lu Gestured for the garb beside him to hand Shun a list he had prepared.
Take a close look.
There are quite a few items that can be operated from the orc tribes.
In addition to diamonds, gold can also be used to make jewelry.
and there are some herbs and other items.
After reviewing the list, Shenzhun felt much more confident.
Rest assured, your majesty, the commoner, knows what to do.
As he spoke, Shan Jhun returned the diamond to Lu Gi, but Lu Gi waved his hand.
That diamond is a gift for you.
Go back and prepare.
Thank you, your majesty.
The commoner takes his leave.
After meeting with Shun Jun, Lu Gi organized his thoughts and confirmed that he had arranged everything before decisively logging out of the game and returning to the real world.
After some time, he had accumulated quite a few questions, including the uses and processing methods of some new ores, as well as the pricing and classification of diamonds.
In addition, he needed to acquire more books on different topics, making his offline tasks quite heavy.
Meanwhile, on the other end, that night after meeting with Luo Gi, Shenzhun invited Lu Yang to drink and eat.
Naturally, they could not avoid discussing the events of the day.
However, as they talked about it, Shan Jun became a bit flustered and hurriedly asked his friend Lu Yang quickly analyzed for me, "Does his majesty's words imply something?" Hearing this, Lu Yang rolled his eyes in exasperation, "Did his majesty not say it clearly?" As long as you don't engage in illegal or disciplinary activities and conduct your business honestly, there will be no problems.
At this point, Lu Yang suddenly paused, his expression turning serious.
Wait, you didn't actually do anything, did you? How could that be? Shen Jun<unk>s voice suddenly rose several decibels, and feeling the gaze of surrounding diners on him, he shrank his neck and quickly lowered his voice.
How could I do anything? You know me well after growing up together for so many years.
Hearing this, Lu Yong relaxed a bit.
Then that's fine.
You haven't done anything.
So what are you panicking about? His majesty is always clear about rewards and punishments.
Besides, his majesty gave that product list to you.
So this way you can definitely profit handsomely before other merchants.
Isn't that a good thing? That doesn't make sense.
Shinjun nodded seriously.
