Chapter 16

Su Li opened the chat area and the trading area.

This time, he was going to give the players a reason they couldn't refuse to trade the iron blocks in their hands.

"Holy crap! So many rioters, thirty or forty rioters, are attacking my territory!"

"Me too, I feel like my territory is about to be dismantled by them."

"Wuwuwu~! Those damn rioters have already snatched all my food units!"

"Fortunately, I only encountered a dozen or so rioters; I recruited a few basic units and drove them away."

"Damn it! The rioters outside are about to rush into my territory. Which big brother is willing to trade some iron blocks and food, or even animal tendons? I need to exchange for some equipment to recruit basic units!"

"Seeking iron blocks, food, and animal tendons +1. Recruiting basic units is too troublesome; you must have the corresponding equipment!"

With the enemy attacking, the chat area exploded.

Many players had their territories breached and were being crazily looted.

After all, even the most ordinary rioters had the strength equivalent to a militia.

Once the number was too high, with the current troop strength of the players, it was certainly difficult to resist, and they could only be slaughtered.

Everyone was in the chat area asking for iron blocks, food, or animal tendons.

"If I put some equipment up for sale now..."

Su Li's mouth curled up.

A bunch of people were being bullied by rioters; at this time, the equipment would surely make them willing to take out iron blocks for trade.

After all, for players, keeping iron blocks was also for the purpose of exchanging for equipment at the blacksmith shop and recruiting troops to withstand this wave of enemy attacks.

New book setting sail, begging for flowers, begging for reviews!!! ===== CHAPTER 38 =====

A moment later.

Trading channel.

[Seller: Su Li]

[Trade Item: Inferior Iron Blade x30, Inferior Leather Armor x30, Wooden Short Bow x30]

[Trade Requirement: Iron Blocks]

[Trade Ratio: (Inferior Weapon + Inferior Armor + Wooden Short Bow) x1 = 4 units of Iron Blocks]

Thus, he directly listed 30 sets each of inferior iron blades, inferior leather armor, and wooden short bows.

Among them, the inferior iron blades and inferior leather armor were the spoils Su Li had just harvested.

The wooden short bows were what he had just exchanged from the blacksmith shop.

And when Su Li put the equipment up, the players browsing the trading area were instantly stunned.

"Holy crap, am I seeing things? Someone is actually trading equipment?!!"

"Damn it! Someone is really trading equipment, and it's that Su Li again!"

"This Su Li took out thirty inferior iron blades, thirty pieces of inferior leather armor, and thirty wooden short bows all at once to trade?"

"And every three pieces of equipment are bundled as a set, only trading for three iron blocks? Is he crazy!"

"Crazy or not, I don't know, I only know he's a big shot!"

"To be able to take out so much equipment, how did he do it? Did he use some black technology with full resources?"

"Perhaps this is what a big shot is? Shivering."

"Does the big shot need a pendant?"

"Big shot Su, hello, I'm a student from a certain technical college, my skills are solid, please give me some equipment, and I guarantee to repay you with my skills when we meet in the future."

"Big shot, I'll trade 4 units of iron blocks for 1 set of equipment!"

"4 units of iron blocks can at most exchange for 1 inferior iron blade and 1 piece of inferior leather armor at the blacksmith shop; getting 1 wooden short bow for free, plus some wood and food materials, only a fool wouldn't trade."

"I'll trade 8 units of iron blocks!"

"I'll trade..."

Inferior weapon + inferior armor + wooden short bow bundled together as a set, only to trade for 4 units of iron blocks.

Such a bargain, not taking it would be a waste; players were crazily selling off the iron blocks in their hands.

In less than a few minutes, all the equipment Su Li listed was traded away.

A total of 120 units of iron blocks were obtained.

Completely enough to upgrade the territory.

Su Li didn't waste time either.

He opened the lord panel and selected, upgrade territory!

Consuming 1000 units of wood, 1000 units of stone, and 50 units of iron blocks.

A moment later, White Cloud Village upgraded again.

The upgrade process was the same as before; it didn't require farmers to be invested, it was all completed automatically.

In less than half an hour, White Cloud Village reached Level 3.

This time, the land area was twice as large as before, the buildings were thicker, and the Lord's Mansion, which looked more solid, became even more luxurious.

Even the thatched huts where the farmers lived had become residential houses built of stone bricks.

The entire territory began to develop in the direction of a town.

Well, a player's territory starts as a village.

Then, after upgrading to Level 5, it can become a town, and after that, a city.
