The Ocean Lord Is Unusually Powerful

A large number of Maplewood City players gathered in the Cat Tail Tavern.

The fact that so many players came was beyond Ji Chen's expectations.

After inquiring, I learned that all the mountain trolls retreated and retreated into the Alvin Mountains.

This is undoubtedly due to the previous actions of the Trickster. Without the aid of the Trickster, the mountain trolls are no match for the Maplewood Principality and the elves. They were driven around by the airship fleet and the ground, causing countless casualties.

Therefore, he decisively retreated and became a tortoise.

Seeing this, the Maple Forest Principality and the elves did not pursue anymore, but chose to retreat and end the war.

The war is over, and the players who went out have chosen to return to rest after receiving their rewards. The auction happened to be held, so there were particularly many players.

Because of the large number of players, Luo Yang had to temporarily change the location of the auction from the Mao Tail Tavern to the street outside.

A wooden platform was set up on the street as an auction platform, and hundreds of wooden chairs were placed in front of it. It could be as simple as it wanted, but this could not stop the enthusiasm of the sand sculpture players.

The streets, the houses on both sides, and the rooftops are all crowded with players.

There were so many people gathered here that some players keenly sensed business opportunities. They immediately sat down and started setting up stalls, shouting and cursing.

Heijinfang, which was originally relatively quiet, suddenly became one of the busiest places in Maplewood City. This formation attracted the soldiers patrolling nearby. They looked at the scene that was more like a vegetable market than a vegetable market, and they all felt a little disdainful. He looked at this group of Glory Lords.

I thought to myself that he really came from the countryside, what kind of appearance does he have?

They were scolded, but they still performed their duties and stood nearby, watching them eagerly to prevent anything from happening.

A street-facing room on the third floor of Mao Tail Tavern.

Ji Chen sat on the sofa and looked at the bustling street outside through the glass.

Holding a glass of wine in his hand, he took a slow peck.

At this time, there was a slight rush of footsteps outside the door.

There was a gentle knock on the door.

"Mr. Zhao, it's me."

It's Luoyang.

"Come in." Ji Chen said unhurriedly. The door was opened, and Luo Yang walked in with some anxiety on his face. He closed the door gently and walked over.

His tone was a little anxious.

"Now the players have almost arrived, but the auction items don't seem to have arrived yet. If this continues, they may have objections."

Ji Chen glanced at him and said calmly.

"Don't worry, things will arrive soon."

Seeing the indifference on Ji Chen's face, Luo Yang felt a little relieved.

"How's that thing I asked you to do before?"

"The store facing the street has started to be renovated and will be put into use soon. But excuse me, what are you going to use that store to sell?"

According to what Luo Yang knew, Ji Chen seemed to have brought only a few specialties from the territory, including precious forest trees, golden seabass, specialty coffee beans, weapons and equipment, and the never-seen shark croaker.

These specialties are precious enough, but they seem to have reached long-term trading agreements with the merchants and elves of Maplewood City, so they are not suitable for sale in shops.

Do you want to sell some ordinary supplies?

In terms of income, for that shop in such a good location, it would be better to rent it out directly if it sells some common necessities. This way, there is still a relatively stable income. Selling common necessities will only make a loss.

"We sell wine."

This is what Ji Chen has thought about a long time ago. The market for wine is very broad.

The talent he found among the refugees, Lysa, was a very talented winemaker who could produce high-quality wine, so naturally he would not let go of such a highly profitable product.

Selling wine?

Luo Yang hesitated, but still said.

"Mr. Zhao, wine cannot be sold casually here in Maplewood Principality."

This statement made Ji Chen suddenly confused, "Why?"

"The reason is very simple. If you want to produce and sell wine in Blue Star, you must obtain a series of certificates before you are qualified to sell it. It is similar here."

"But the problem is that it's not an easy thing to get the sales qualification here."

"The Principality of Maple Grove is located by the sea. The climate and soil are very suitable for growing grapes, so a large amount of wine is produced."

"As you know, the profits of things like wine are enough to make any businessman jealous, so some powerful people in Maplewood Kingdom have joined forces to only issue alcohol sales licenses to a very small number of people who are with them.

Other alcohol merchants cannot obtain licenses at all, so naturally they cannot sell alcohol, and foreign alcohol is not even allowed to enter the domestic market."

Ji Chen frowned. Isn't this a trade barrier and market access?

Through official rights, other wines are prevented from entering, thereby achieving a monopoly effect.

Previously, the special products brought by Ocean Crown were all lacking in Maplewood Principality, so naturally there would be no conflict of interest with them, but it was hard to say about goods like wine.

This is an issue worth considering.

Ji Chen thought about it and felt that he needed to find out about this matter from a businessman like Gilder.

"Okay, I will solve this matter."

Luo Yang nodded and did not ask further questions. He knew very well what should be said and what should not be said.

Ji Chen took this matter to heart and continued to focus on the outside.

As Luo Yang said, the gathered players found that the auction had not started yet and began to have opinions.

"Will this auction be held? It's been so long since there was no sign of it. I just left my time-limited mission and came here."

"Aren't you afraid that Master Zhao and Luo Yang are playing tricks on us? Are we going to have a different world version of beacon fire to play with the princes?"

Seeing the discussions among the players, Luo Yang couldn't help but look at Ji Chen again, only to find that he still looked calm.

It's like everything is under control.

Just as many players were getting more and more excited, some were even preparing to leave.

A team of elves suddenly appeared outside the Black Gold Square, driving dozens of cargo carriages slowly into the square, looking at the many players with cold expressions.

The freight carriages were covered with black cloth, and it was impossible to see what was inside, but the long queue of dozens of carriages was quite spectacular.

At this time, Hou Lixu and Hou Lifa suddenly jumped out from nowhere, holding a simplified version of the loudspeaker and shouted loudly.

"All the items in this auction are provided by the Islanders!"

As soon as these words came out, the player was stunned.

Is he the islander they thought he was?

As if they guessed what they were thinking, Hou Lixu and the others continued to shout: "Yes, it's exactly what you thought. The islanders who once became famous in the secret realm of the Silver Islands and ranked at the top of the player rankings and territory rankings Boss!"

"The boss of the Lonely Islander entrusted Young Master Zhao to handle this batch of auction items!"

"The quality of the things given by the islander boss is absolutely guaranteed!!!"

Sand sculpture players, you looked at me and I looked at you, and we all saw the shock in each other's eyes.

actually.

Among the player groups in the Mediterranean and its coasts.

The name of the Lonely Islander can be described as thunderous.

Let’s not talk about the names that are at the top of the rankings, but let’s talk about the impressive achievements achieved in the past.

When the secret realm of the Silver Islands first appeared, he used one person to sneak attack on multiple gates of the Blood Sea City, and cooperated with the attacking players inside and outside, establishing an offensive advantage in one fell swoop.

Let the attacking player get a large amount of crystals, just enough to fill them up.

Secondly, on King Kong Island, he used huge waves to instantly swallow up several players who wanted to take advantage of the situation. He was famous for his terrifying personal strength and powerful fleet power.

These two actual combat records are enough to prove the strength of the islanders.

Coupled with the praise from the players of the Kong Island Players Alliance.

Especially the crazy praise from the player named I Love Black Silk, who is also famous on the ranking list, praising him as the best person in the Mediterranean, handsome and generous.

This series of factors has made the Islander vaguely become what players call the strongest player in the Mediterranean.

However, since King Kong Island, the Islander has rarely appeared in chat channels and forums, causing the popularity about him to gradually decrease.

Until now.

Are you saying that these auction items were provided by Lonely Islanders?

And it's so energetic that the elf who always raises his head when speaking can deliver it in person?

This is so honorable!

At this time, the player was not only shocked, but also shocked.

Doesn’t this mean that the big boss of the Lonely Islanders has also come to Maplewood Principality?

At this time, some players suddenly remembered that they had seen a player fighting with the elf fleet commander on the edge of the dock.

They remembered that the player could not use the system to view information and only saw question marks on the panel.

Among them, some players who had previously taken over the logistics tasks of the elven army also suddenly realized this.

That night, they saw the Elf Army and Maplewood Principality soldiers saluting a player. At that time, they were still wondering who that player was and why he had such good cards.

Could that player be the Islander himself?

Looking at the elf escorting the carriage, I felt more and more certain.

If they didn't get to know and help the elves, how could these elves come to transport them in person?

Case solved!

Unbeknownst to everyone, the Gudao Man had already done several major things in the Maple Forest Principality!

After thinking about it.

The players' emotions suddenly rose.

The resentment caused by the long wait suddenly disappeared.

This is the boss of the Lonely Islander. What's wrong with asking them to wait for a while?

At the same time, many players are also looking around, wanting to see the rumored Islander boss.

In this regard, Hou Lixu, who had already been instructed, immediately picked up the loudspeaker and shouted: "The boss of the Lonely Islander is busy with business and did not come to the scene."

“The auction starts immediately!!!”

The escorting elves also drove the carriage to the auction stage expressionlessly one by one, handed the goods to the staff, and then dispersed in a tacit understanding, looking around eagerly, guarding the auction items to prevent some players. Sneaking around.

Soon, the staff began to auction according to the advance instructions.

Pieces of treasures, batches of war equipment, and pieces of weapons and equipment were auctioned.

Most of the treasures are 1 to 3 stars. Treasures of this level are nothing to Ji Chen today, but they are quite precious to other players.

In most cases, the treasures they can obtain through commissions and tasks are basically 1-star and 2-star.

As for 3-star treasures, most of them are found in treasure chests, and they can only be obtained through some extremely dangerous commissions. If they get one, they will use it as a family heirloom.

But there are more than ten 3-star treasures appearing in this auction.

It is enough to intuitively explain how powerful the Lonely Islander is, so powerful that he does not even look down upon 3-star treasures.

The number of war equipment is at least double digits, including fine iron ballistas, city defense ballistas, and artillery. Just a few of them are enough to arm a small territory.

But here they are all auctioned in units of ten.

The cores of military recruitment camps are piled randomly in the box.

Boxes of potions were bundled and auctioned.

At this moment, these players deeply realized what it means to be inhumane.

Is the islander boss really that strong?

You don't even like these things, so you put them all up for auction?

"Ten fine iron crossbows, the starting price is two thousand gold coins!"

"I'll offer you two thousand one hundred!" A player who had already taken a fancy to the game raised his hand and shouted.

"I'll pay two thousand three hundred!" Another player said without any sign of weakness.

"Three thousand gold coins!" A player in tattered clothes said calmly, which immediately attracted the attention of many people, who cursed secretly. You are so rich but wearing such tattered clothes, you are pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger! ?

Looking at the players who were constantly bidding in the auction, Ji Chen sighed and nodded.

Facts have proven that there are not so good players on the surface, but they actually have some wealth. Players who know that their wealth is not exposed have understood the essence of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.

After watching it for a while, he got bored.

With a wave of his hand, Luo Yang was asked to handle the auction matters on his own, and with a thought, he took out the Mask of Falsehood and changed himself into a different appearance from his original form and Mr. Zhao.

The body is a little shorter, the figure is a little fatter, and the appearance is ordinary.

Looking at his completely unfamiliar self in the mirror, Ji Chen nodded with satisfaction.

Descend via private access to the street.

This time, not all players came here to auction things. Some just came here purely because of the traffic here and set up stalls to sell some things.

On the street next to the auction, there are street stalls on both sides of the road, with messy things on them. Some players stop to ask about the items and prices from time to time.

This scene has quite a market atmosphere.

Ji Chen, whose appearance had changed, blended into the crowd silently, as if he were an ordinary player going shopping.

"Snow lotus, a rare medicinal material produced in the snow-capped mountains, costs three hundred for one flower, and one thousand for three flowers!"

"The high-quality fine iron long knife is a good helper for you to kill people and prevent fire in the dark wind."

"Silver scale breastplate, blue quality, one piece of hardware!!!"

"There are four cores in the recruitment camp of the second-level military unit Forest Guard, each costing 250 gold coins. A one-time package with a 10% discount!"

The shouts are endless, but no player is lying. The shouts basically match the item. After all, players can use the system to get the information panel of the item, and it is clear at a glance whether it is true or false.

Just use it to deceive the aborigines, but deceiving other players will give you nothing.

Ji Chen was walking around and looking at the flowers, but suddenly stopped and turned his attention to a remote stall at the corner of the street.

In his perception, there seemed to be something strange there.
