Chapter 527

The northern wasteland is separated from the eastern continent by a sea. Usually, the channel passes through the South China Sea Islands and then enters the southern sea area. The merchant ships in the southern sea area will buy these Eastern commodities, sell some to the north and send some to the west by sea.

This trade route will not pass through the northern wasteland. If sulun wants to take a share, he can only open up a trade route himself. In the past, there was no human city in the northern wasteland. There were only a large number of jackals, dog headed men, goblins, barbarians, orcs, etc. These people would not trade with merchants at all. They were better at robbery.

Now, if you want to open up business roads, the caravan in Zhenbei city can only go to the eastern continent to trade in person. It is not close from Zhenbei city to the eastern coast, and all the way is wasteland without a human city. If sulun wants to open up business roads, he must build a city here.

Now the Pathfinder is back.

"Where are they now?" Suellen asked immediately.

"Your Majesty, they are still in the city hall," reported the Chamberlain.

"Let them see me!"

"Yes, please wait a moment!" said the attendant and left in a hurry.

About a quarter of an hour later, Suellen met the adventurers. They looked very tired, their armor was full of scars, their hair was messy, their face was dirty and dusty.

"Did you finish exploring the way?" sullen asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, your majesty, we walked all the way to the southeast along the Hongsha river. During this period, we met many evil enemies, such as jackal tribe, ORC tribe, goblins, lizards and so on. After many hardships, we finally came to the eastern sea, saw the sea, and then we..." said the middle-aged man in ragged leather armor.

"I know all this, and I will give you rich rewards. Now I want to know if you have sorted out all the routes along the way and all the situations you have reached and drawn them into a map?" Su Lun interrupted the complaint of the middle-aged man and asked directly.

"Generous reward! Map! We have drawn a complete map, not only the route, but also some areas along the sea." after hearing Su Lun's words, the adventurer said happily.

"Where is the map? Let me see!" Suellen said.

The adventurer subconsciously took out a sheepskin map from his arms and gave it to Su Lun. After su Lun took it, he seemed to react. He wanted to know the map, but he didn't have the courage. He could only look at Su Lun with a tangled face.

Su Lun didn't take care of these adventurers. He opened the map directly and began to view it. The map is still very simple. After all, these people haven't studied map drawing at all. The drawn map looks like an abstract painting.

Fortunately, the terrain on the northern wasteland is not complex. They have marked the location of the North Town, the Hongshui River can also be recognized, other routes have also been recorded, and some areas have been expressed in words. In short, although the map is simple, it is still qualified in general.

And compared with the northern wasteland he saw in the star boundary, the error is not very big.

"Well, your map meets the requirements of this task!" Su Lun put down the map and said with a smile, "the reward promised by the city hall will not be less. The reward of 10000 jinnars is not less than one point. This is the task completion certificate. You can take it to get the reward."

"Of course, after receiving the reward, you still need to lead the army of Zhenbei city to walk this road again!"

"Thank you for your generosity, your majesty. Your reputation is as bright as gold. We are willing to lead the way for the army again." after hearing the reward, their eyes congested and their faces showed restless excitement.

"Your Majesty, we..." at this moment, the adventurer suddenly became a little hesitant.

Su Lun was a little strange: "do you have anything to say?"

The adventurer bit his teeth and finally seemed determined to say, "Your Majesty, we want to change a reward!"

"Another reward? Do you think ten thousand dinars is less?" Su Lun said quietly. "What kind of reward do you want?"

"Your Majesty, we don't think your reward is less!" hearing Su Lun's words, the adventurer quickly explained: "we want to change this 10000 ginals into citizens of the north city of the town, and assign us houses and fields."

Su Lun smiled: "do you want to become citizens of Zhenbei city? Of course!"

"This is ten thousand jinnars. Even if you divide it equally among the five of you, each of you can get two thousand jinnars, which is enough for you to buy a manor in the kingdom of Florence and live a rich life. Are you sure you want to change it into citizens and houses and farmland in the north of the town?"

Several adventurers looked at each other, and then said, "yes, your majesty, we are willing to become citizens of the north town!"

"Well, then I declare that you can all become citizens of the town of Bei Bei, and the city hall will come to help you with the registered residence in a few minutes, and your houses and fields will also be allocated, but only ten thousand of them will be left."

"Thank you for your generosity!" the adventurers bowed to Suellen and said respectfully.

Su Lun lamented that these adventurers had lived in Zhenbei city for one or two years. After getting familiar with Zhenbei City, they wanted to become citizens of Zhenbei City, but Zhenbei city had high requirements for citizens. Many of these adventurers could not pass the investigation. These people would rather not be rewarded with 10000 jinnars than become residents of Zhenbei City, which surprised Su Lun. I didn't expect that the citizenship of Zhenbei city has been so precious.

Ask the bodyguard to take these people away. Suellen began to look at the map carefully. At the same time, he informed the army to form an advance force to clear all obstacles on the road and prepare to go to the east coast to build a city,

In order to trade with the eastern continent, Su Lun must build a bridgehead on the eastern coast. In addition, he also needs to clear and suppress the area 15 kilometers along both sides of the Hongsha river. Sulun plans to transport goods by water, and the caravan will also carry goods from the Hongsha River into the sea.

This is faster than land transportation, with large transportation volume, and can also save a lot of manpower and material resources. This time, Su Lun, the advance team, plans to arrange two ships for him to record the hydrology of Hongsha river. At the same time, he will build a large dock outside Zhenbei city to prepare for the production of seagoing ships. There are many trees in the wasteland in the north, which is no problem for shipbuilding, but it takes a while to learn shipbuilding technology. In addition, he also needs to recruit enough sailors and navigators.

With Suellen's order, the army soon began to gather, and two inland ships were ready.
