Chapter 198: Chapter 139: Second Recruitnt of Refugees
Cheng Zongyang didn’t stay long after that. He turned and headed for the third floor of the Preservation Warehouse.
Because he was storing fish, he had to move the things originally on the second floor to the third. Fortunately, there weren’t many dicinal Materials and other items stored on the third floor.
But now, a large amount of grain also took up a good deal of space on the third floor.
Ignoring the grain and harvested dicinal Materials, Cheng Zongyang walked up to a five-tiered wooden rack. The rack was three ters long, three ters high, and one ter wide, mainly holding various items he had bought initially but hadn’t used, as well as his own collection.
So had been used, so hadn’t. So were purchased a while ago, and so in the last two or three months.
For example: dicated Bandages that could quickly stop bleeding; Wilderness Beans (dium); Town Recall Talismans;
Wilderness Red Heart Fruits; Geomagnetic Stones; a Plant Growth Liquid Formula;
Martial Essence Pills; the Martial Essence Body Tempering Technique; a Soul Gathering Stele; six Soul Crystal Stones kept in reserve;
There were also the recipes he had copied down: the Seven Herbs Powder Recipe, the Clearing Fever Powder Recipe, the White dicine Formula, and the Body Tempering Powder Recipe;
a Universal Four-Discount Coupon; a Solar-Powered Military Watch; a Golden Essence Wolf Fang Club; a Hundred-Forged Fine Iron Bow;
Wilderness Silk Insect eggs; a Beastman Bow Blueprint; and Elf ssengers.
These were all the main items currently in stock. The rest of the things he had obtained were either fruits, seeds, or animal cubs.
Among them, the ones he valued most were the Body Tempering Powder Recipe, which could aid Martial Artists in their cultivation; the Beastman Bow Blueprint, which allowed for the mass production of bows from the design; and finally, the Wilderness Silk Insect eggs.
The Body Tempering Powder could be taken by Martial Artists below the Middle Third Grades to aid their practice. He had most of the necessary dicinal Materials, but without a good excuse to introduce it, he hadn’t brought it out yet.
The Beastman Bow Blueprint ca from the ruins of a Beastman Tribe in the Wilderness World. Based on the blueprint, bows with different draw weights could be designed.
The strongest longbow that could be designed had a draw weight of five hundred kilograms, or nearly eleven *dan*, a weapon that only an Eighth Grade Martial Artist could use with ease.
The weakest was a one-*dan* draw weight bow that an ordinary person could use. These bows could et the needs of different people in the village.
As for the last item, the Wilderness Silk Insect, it was a creature similar to a silkworm that ca from the ruins of so Elven site in the Wilderness World.
Although both spit silk, their diets are different. The Silk Insect spits out threads of varying strength depending on what it eats.
Silkworms basically eat mulberry leaves, but the Silk Insect can eat at, tree leaves, vegetables, and fruits. You could say it’s an omnivorous insect; it’s not a picky eater.
Eating at is best, as it allows them to produce extrely tough silk threads. Right now, Luo Zheng was in charge of incubating the ten pairs of Wilderness Silk Insect eggs. Later, they could try to breed them in greater numbers.
However, what surprised him was that yesterday he had obtained a pair of peculiar creatures—Elf ssengers.
They were a type of bird called an Elf Bird, which looked a bit like a parrot. They were avians from the Elf Forest, extrely fast, and were once used by the Elf Race to deliver ssages. That was why they were called Elf ssengers.
They had only one function—to act as carrier pigeons.
But this creature’s thod of navigation was rather unique; it locked onto its own feathers.
No matter where a person was, as long as they held a feather from an Elf Bird, the released bird would fly toward the location of its own feather.
The only problem was that the bird’s feathers were very difficult to pluck. After pulling one out, the bird would seem to fall ill and need several days to rest.
He didn’t understand the scientific principles behind it, but it was precisely this trait that had made them the ssengers for the ancient Elf Race.
When he returned this ti, he needed to deal with the four items he was going to exchange for Gold: the Plant Growth Liquid, the Body Tempering Powder, the White dicine Formula, and the Beastman Bow Blueprint.
These would greatly strengthen the village’s foundation. The Plant Growth Liquid, in particular, was sothing the village desperately needed.
The dicinal Materials for the Martial Arts dicine Baths were almost completely used up, and the sa was true for the Foundation Establishnt dicine Baths. Furthermore, because of the great fire a few months ago, it was difficult to find any dicinal Materials, so their only option was to cultivate them. That would take ti.
Now, with the Body Tempering Powder as a temporary replacent, the Martial Artists in the clan wouldn’t be left without supplentary dicine.
Besides, he had also co to the county this ti to see if he could continue to "acquire" the dicinal Materials needed for the Foundation Establishnt dicine Bath for free.
The family’s Martial Arts dicine Baths could be stopped, but the children’s Foundation Establishnt dicine Baths could not be stopped; they had to continue.
There was much to do, so he could only wait for night to act.
He copied the Beastman Bow Design Map, leaving one copy for Ma San and the others to use for future production. Then, he put away the four items and brought them to the market stall so he could take them at any ti.
He changed his clothes and called for Luo Zheng.
"My lord." At the door of the small house, Luo Zheng said, clasping his hands.
"How are those two little ones doing?" Cheng Zongyang asked.
Hearing this, Luo Zheng smiled. "They haven’t recovered yet. This bird’s feathers are incredibly hard to pluck. Pulling just one makes it look like it’s about to die. It’ll probably need two or three days of rest to recover. So for now, we’ve only dared to pluck one from each of them. My lord, if we want to use them for multiple locations, we’ll probably have to wait until there are more of them."
Cheng Zongyang nodded. "No matter. Just take it slow. Take good care of them."
"Yes, my lord!"
Leaving the Wilderness World, he appeared in the back room. Cheng Zongyang left his residence and headed for the slums on the border of South City and West City, near the city wall.
He had to take another group of people with him this ti. This was the second ti he had prepared to bring people back to the Inner Mountain Pass.
The last ti he ca to the county to deliver dicinal powder to Li Lu, he had already found a few people and had them start a selection process. This ti, he was here to see the results.
The criteria for the people he was taking this ti were largely the sa as before: they had to have families, the ratio of won to n had to be high, and more importantly, they needed to have a trade.
