Chapter 472 The Merchant's Move (for subscription)
When he arranged for his men to dig the ruins here, Chen Wei returned to the river bend.
At this time, with the ruins of the city not far away as the foundation, Chen Wei finally let go of half of his heart.
He already knew that the plan he made this time, Kent, could be said to be a success.
Not to mention other things, the extra city in front of you is enough to protect the area in front of you.
Then for the next plan for this river bend, the resources that Chen Wei needs to invest can be reduced a lot.
With this in mind, when Chen Wei set up the checkpoint at the river bend, the way of handling it was not as strict as before.
Chen Wei this time intends to use Jushu Island to reduce the speed of ships on the river, and then turn the interior of the river bend into a port and checkpoint city.
All ships that want to pass through the bay will be affected by this city.
This is not the same as Chen Wei's previous idea of setting up levels on the river.
The previous plan is called iron lock Hengjiang at best, and robbery on the river at worst.
The current plan is different.
The new city is built at the bend of the river. If you want to pass through the river, you must enter the new city.
Once you enter the city, you don’t have to pay a city entry tax or anything like that.
And if you want to enter the city, you must not explain your identity in advance.
In this way, everything is under the control of Chen Wei.
Even if he encounters the enemy at that time, Chen Wei is sure to keep the enemy out of the city.
With new arrangements, Chen Wei's thoughts on dealing with the city became smoother.
Under Chen Wei's arrangement, all kinds of materials were sent here.
Because there is no city heart, Chen Wei chose another method to build the city.
Some camps and buildings that can be placed in the wild have all been sent over.
At the same time, Chen Wei also showed his talent and began to synthesize the corresponding units and building stones.
Under Chen Wei's synthesis, pieces of buildings related to navigation were synthesized.
In these buildings, there are large gantry cranes and docks for docking ships.
At the same time, several sluices were also built. Behind the sluices, Chen Wei was going to dig out an internal lake and dock where ships could dock.
With the existence of these buildings, Chen Wei built guard posts on both sides of the river bank.
At the same time he transferred a large number of troops.
These troops are stationed around this new city that does not yet have a city heart.
But they are only stationed here, the real source of soldiers for the city will be placed in the level 7 ruins.
In this way, Chen Wei can use these two cities to exercise all-round control over the nearby forests.
When Chen Wei was building the checkpoint and the city, the businessman also found that something was wrong.
He set off from the southeast of Chen Wei's territory, and it turned out that the journey was quite smooth at the beginning, as if Chen Wei's territory was not fortified against him.
This situation made the businessman quite happy.
In his mind, these are all achievements for nothing.
He doesn't want me to do some useless things, as long as the intelligence information he sees is brought back, some players are willing to pay a lot of money to buy information.
At that time, he can make a fortune for nothing.
But when he left from the southeast of Chen Wei's territory, he realized that something was wrong.
There is obviously a problem with the woods on the southeastern edge of Chen Wei's territory.
There is an electrical style in this forest.
This made the businessman feel a little uneasy.
Nothing like this has ever happened in this forest before.
But the businessman didn't take this abnormality seriously.
In his mind, Chen Wei is just a player who just came to this world.
Even if Chen Wei is capable, the number of troops he can bring is not much.
Being able to guarantee the construction of one's own territory is already considered a very powerful existence. If you want to control the forest, it is simply impossible to do it within two or three years.
It must have been something wrong with some of the aborigines in the woods before.
It's what makes this forest so weird.
The businessman thought about his identity and status, and entered the woods with confidence.
In the mind of the businessman, he must have no problem.
The Merchant Alliance is an absolutely neutral organization, no one will take the initiative to attack members of the Merchant Alliance.
With the identity and status of the Merchant Alliance, he can come from anywhere freely.
Businessmen are so confident.
But after entering the woods, the businessman realized that something was wrong.
The roads in the woods in front of you are intermittent, and sometimes because there is no road ahead, the businessman has to take some difficult roads, or even go back and forth.
This makes the businessman feel quite uncomfortable.
You must know that businessmen have always believed that time is money.
They can't wait to go out to the next city.
It is the most annoying thing to keep detours like this.
The businessman thought for a while, then turned his head and gave an order to his soldiers.
"Open the road, cut down these trees for me, and make a road."
Speaking of this, the businessman seemed to think of something, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, I can open the road, so that the control of this road will be mine, and then this will be my business route.
When the time comes, all the people who pass by this trade route will pay me money. "
Thinking of this, the businessman's eyes lit up, "Look, this is a good opportunity, don't let others discover it."
As he spoke, the businessman pointed to the depths of the woods, "Go and open the way, and cut down all the trees blocking the way."
In the eyes of the businessman, Chen Wei is just a new player who just came to this world.
He couldn't even survive in this world.
Not to mention figuring out some unspoken rules of this world.
If he doesn't take advantage of this opportunity, when will he wait.
So the businessman didn't think about Chen Wei's idea at all, and didn't think about whether Chen Wei needed to open such a business route in the woods, so he acted on his own.
This businessman didn't know that his actions had always been in the eyes of the mechanical monster.
At the beginning, the businessman passed through the woods of the mechanical spooky body, and the mechanical spooky body didn't have the idea of attacking them.
But now the businessman actually wants to open a road here, that's different.
The mechanical treacherous body was ordered to guard the southeast of Chen Wei's territory, and not let anyone enter or leave Chen Wei's territory from here.
The businessman is actually provoking the task of the mechanical treacherous body.
The mechanical spooky body hadn't made a move before, that's because the businessman didn't make excessive moves.
The situation is different now, the merchant has taken the initiative to make a move, and the mechanical treacherous body will naturally not let the merchant go.
Soon the businessman realized that something was wrong. His team seemed to be getting smaller and smaller, and many of his men who were sent out to open the way mysteriously disappeared in the woods.
This situation is very wrong.
