Emperor Zhi ascended the throne.

After the mentally retarded goblins found out that their king was dead, they were tied like twists on the road. They immediately bowed to Zhou Li and shouted the name of the wise emperor loudly. Zhou Li also accepted their offer as a matter of course.

Surrender and let them loose.

Since then, the goblin tribe in the eastern part of the Twilight Forest, a total of 100 mentally retarded goblins with brass strength, has been completely controlled by Zhou Li. The other goblins have long been shocked by the wisdom emperor's extraordinary intelligence and have bowed down.

They surrendered under his wisdom ring. After all, their little wisdom reminded them that it was much better to let a smart Goblin come to power than to let a random weak Goblin continue to bully them.

"Are those retarded goblins just pretending to surrender?"

Zhou Li was sitting in a thatched hut. Facing Eluma's worries, he waved his hand nonchalantly and replied: "No way, those retarded goblins don't have the IQ to pretend to surrender."

"That's it." Heishu, who was sitting on a stone chair with a calm face, nodded in agreement, and added: "Their brains do not support thinking about more than two lines of problems. False surrender can be called the art of war.

Existence doesn't even enter their minds."

"Gulu! (Indeed)"

Gululu, who was placed on the stone table and sucked the clear spring water from the bowl nearby, made a slime sound and agreed with Black Tree's statement.

Seeing this, Eluma didn't say much, but the worried look on her face still didn't dissipate. Although a hundred extraordinary people with brass strength are a garbage organization that can be underestimated in any country, and they can be surrounded by most contacts.

A rubbish mission like a wheat field. But the problem is that these one hundred transcendent beings with brass strength are all mentally retarded.

Pure.

Just like Heishu said, these mentally retarded goblins have single-threaded brains. If you ask them to "move forward", they will never attack or notify friendly forces when they encounter an enemy, but continue in a daze.

Move forward. If you tell him "Be alert in all directions while moving forward", then you will get a dumb goblin - he can't do two things at the same time.

Therefore, according to common sense, although the more than 100 bronze-level extraordinary beings are very weak, they are a being that can be called a "power". But among the goblins that Zhou Li currently controls, there are only a few with high IQs.

Those who can tie a chicken have no IQ. How can we work together with a team made up of a bunch of insects?

"Boss, what should we do next?"

The black tree on the side asked Zhou Li respectfully. Since Zhou Li ascended the throne of the Goblin King, the black tree has become Zhou Li with his good conditions of being able to calculate even-number multiplication, speaking clearly, and being able to cover his body with clothes.

The confidant. Gululu, the king of slimes, came to confirm with Zhou Li that the relationship between slimes and goblins would stay here in the future.

"What's the next step..."

Zhou Li looked at the map of the eastern part of the Twilight Forest that he had just torn off from the Brave Warrior. He frowned slightly and kept thinking. After a while, he drew a few lines with charcoal on the map, and then marked a place.

A big x.

Demigod, a slime, and a goblin gathered near Zhou Li and looked at the map together. Zhou Li connected the eastern part of the Twilight Forest, that is, the Goblin tribe and the two surrounding city-states with lines.

Together, they followed the line and saw the big x at the end of the line.

"East entrance?"

Eluma read out the words above with some confusion, and then looked at Zhou Li in confusion, "Isn't that place abandoned for a long time? No one has entered the Twilight Forest from there for a long time?"

"Ahem."

Hearing this, Zhou Li coughed twice and suddenly talked about an unrelated topic: "Do you know a story related to gold mines?"

The creatures shook their heads, then Zhou Li knocked on the table, thought for a moment and said to everyone:

"There was once a large amount of gold found buried in an area, and many people rushed there to dig for gold. This group of people sold their property and bought a piece of land that was as small as possible, just to be able to mine it.

Make a fortune by discovering gold mines. However, the gold mines themselves are scattered everywhere irregularly. Among a large number of gold diggers, only a few people obtained gold mines. And most of them died because they had no money to buy food and water.

On top of gold, or become homeless and disappear into the world.”

"Then one day, a young man came to that city. He saw the madness of those gold diggers, and also saw their bankruptcy after a disastrous defeat. At this time, an idea occurred to him."

"Oh, isn't this the story of psychic minerals?" At this time, Eluma on the side suddenly realized and said to Zhou Li: "Did he open a grocery store, help others repair props and sell food and water, and finally

Earned more wealth than gold?”

"Haha, not really." Zhou Li smiled and said kindly: "This young man directly picked up the gun and mounted his horse, and started to attract a group of people to sell knives and boards at the entrance of the gold mine. If you don't give them money, they will

Just randomly find a few lucky spectators every day to grab a fortune. But not long after, they were surrounded and suppressed by the country behind that city, and no one survived."

"So why are you telling this story?!"

Hearing the end of this story, Eluma was so hung up that she couldn't help but sigh: "Didn't that mean nothing?"

"Look, I said it all." Zhou Li looked at Eluma with a little pity and tenderness in his eyes, "Just stop thinking."

Before Eluma could get angry, Zhou Li cleared his throat and continued: "I'm not telling you this story because I want you to learn from any of them."

"It's about criticizing their behavior."

"First of all, that city, they are really stupid, really stupid!" At this point, Zhou Li was full of regrets, as if if the city lord were him, everything would change: "Such a big gold mine, they are so stupid

Charge such a high mining fee!”

Hearing this, Eluma felt warm in her heart. The brave man was actually quite kind. The fact that the gold mine destroyed so many people had something to do with the high mining qualifications. It seemed that the brave man also had his own conscience.

"Don't these idiots know that free is the most expensive?!"

Zhou Li's generous words directly calmed Eluma, and she realized that something seemed to be wrong.

"This behavior is completely undesirable!" Zhou Li took action and said sadly: "Let the gold diggers settle in for free, slowly increase the price of water and electricity, guide the gold diggers to fight for territory, raise the price of medical care, and control outsiders.

For the supply of food and water, raising food taxes will cause food sellers in the city to also raise prices. Isn’t such sustainable fishing more valuable than a one-time sale?!!”

ah?????

Eluma on the side was stunned on the spot. Before she could react, Zhou Li continued to say excitedly:

"That young man is also stupid! No, he is stupid!"

"He should reach a treaty with the authorities directly. Whenever a gold digger finds gold, he will cut a wave of leeks and grab all the gold! After that, the city police came out and told the gold diggers that they could use two-thirds of the gold they recovered.

To arrest young people at a price."

"Then why give him a third?"

Heishu raised his hand and asked a question like a tireless schoolboy.

"After giving him one-third, he thought he still had capital and wanted to make up for the remaining two-thirds of the loss. So let me ask you, if he wants to continue mining, what does he need to do?"

"Buy another golden land, buy water, buy equipment, buy food. All of these must be purchased in the city, and the prices of these things in the city..."

Under Zhou Li's guidance, Heishu muttered to himself in confusion. Soon, he understood Zhou Li's intention: "Doesn't that mean?"

"That's right!" Zhou Li nodded, and then said in a low voice: "Actually, all the gold ended up in my hands."

Eluma felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar at this time, and the coldness eroded her body. She tugged on Zhou Li's sleeves and said in disbelief: "The devil cheats... and has to give benefits to the deceived.

Harvest life."

"Benefits?" When Zhou Li heard this, he asked with some confusion: "Who said I didn't give any benefits to the gold diggers?"

"Ah, then...what...um????"

Even though Eluma claimed to be a demigod, he couldn't figure it out for a moment. If he really acted according to what Zhou Li said, the group of gold diggers going to him to dig for gold would not even be as good as signing an unequal agreement with the devil.

It was a relief. After all, the devil at least knew how to give people something before harvesting their lives. But Zhou Li not only completely stripped the gold diggers naked, but also kept them trapped in endless labor.

It's so scary, even the devil has to kneel down to him!

"Of course..." Zhou Li stood up, raised his arms slightly, and said sanctimoniously: "Endless hope!"

"Then don't let them fall into endless despair!!!!"

Eluma shouted out in a panic. She felt that the plan mentioned by Zhou Li could be implemented completely, and if Zhou Li really did it himself, I am afraid that the fate of those gold diggers would be far crueler than being caught by the devil.

Much.

"rest assured."

However, Zhou Li did not argue with her. On the contrary, Zhou Li covered her soft blue hair with his hands and said to her gently: "I am a brave man. How can I do such a thing?"

Phew~

When Eluma heard Zhou Li's words, she breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, and the stone in her heart fell to the ground.

"If it were me, I would show my brave name openly and openly, accuse the city lord of making a deal with the devil, use illusions to charm the gold diggers, and then secretly reach an agreement with the king to share the harvested gold 50/50, and then pray to the gods and tell them

The king got an ill-gotten fortune, and then divided the king's share 50-50 with the gods. Isn't this much better than going through all the trouble to deceive and kidnap?"

Zhou Li smiled brightly, not shying away from the shocking part of what he just said.

At least, the demigod Eluma was shocked.
Chapter completed!
