Chapter 261 The missing orphanage

The Dominion of Firm Valley is a very interesting place. The earliest one to come here was a group of refugees who lost their homes in the war. These refugees left the Yariel Plateau where they lived for generations and continued to migrate to the west. Finally, they found this Feng Shui treasure land after the icebergs and canyons.

If we say in this sense, the ancestors of the Frozen Valley are still descendants of the Nords, but after so many years of development, this place just a short distance from the Virgia Empire has nurtured its unique civilization.

It is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the sea. The towering snow-capped mountains block the bitter cold wind from the ice field, giving the valley a relatively warm climate and fertile land. The fishy sea breeze blows from the Rocking Moon Bay brings all kinds of polar seafood and also brings unlimited business opportunities.

Not only were refugees from various countries and nations coming to the Firing Valley to live and work in peace, among them were civilians who had lost their homes, nobles who failed political struggles, and of course, there were also chaotic troops who had defeated the war and bandits who could not survive. While bringing difficulties to the security of the valley, they also brought customs and cultures of various regions and nations. Since the founding of the city, a system of discussion was lacking in a truly powerful authority, and a system of discussion was formed. It can be said that the Firing Valley Autonomous Dominion, a small country established in the far north of the world, is the cradle of world democratic politics, two or three hundred years earlier than the Federation and Neosfia.

After nearly a thousand years of development, the pattern of ten towns, three cities and one port appeared in the autonomous territory. Some relatively closed ethnic groups such as elves, dwarves, orcs even formed miniature semi-independent communities and villages.

Lenggang is the only commercial port in the Frozen Valley and the largest city. It has a permanent population of about 100,000. It has the highest latitude in all cities with more than 100,000 people in the world.

As an outlet that the Vigian Empire relies on, the freight throughput of the cold port is quite large in detail, but it is not common to gather dozens of large cargo ships at one time in the port. More than half of these ships were called by the wind, and the remaining half were also unrelated to her. They were all affiliated with the sea fleets of major chambers of commerce in various countries.

The news that a large amount of black copper, cold iron, crystal, ice crystal, sapphire and nephrite were released in Lenggang long before Lu Xi and the others set off. Facts have proved that rumors, especially those with commercial value, spread far more quickly than people's legs. Profit-seeking businessmen will naturally not give up such business opportunities. They gathered quickly like sharks smelling blood.

"Things like black copper, cold iron and iron wood can be thrown out, but gems like ice crystals, crystals, nephrite can only be sold in a small part." Lu Xi asked the Qifeng Tuo.

"Hey, why is this? Gemstone goods should be the big part of the income, right?"

Lu Xi looked at Jifeng's eyes seriously and found that the other party was not pretending to be stupid. So, the sense of superiority as a time traveler arose again.

"Black copper and cold iron are worth more than half of the copper ore. Ironwood is also a very precious snow-capped wood, but these things are just consumables after all, and no matter how much they are invested, they will be quickly digested by the market. But things like ice crystals may be consumables for magicians, but for most people, they are luxury goods. After all, their digestibility is limited. All investments at one time will definitely have a huge impact on the market, and the gains are not worth the cost. I suggest you keep these gems as organizational reserves. These things are non-renewable resources and will definitely become more and more expensive in the future. This is worth more than the vulgar gold coins."

Although Jifeng lacks common sense in economics, he is not a fool after all. After Lu Xi said this, he naturally understood immediately. She stared at Lu Xi with a very complicated look. Until she saw the latter's heart, she couldn't help but say: "To be honest, I can offer an alliance's salary of more than ten times the salary to invite Lu Xi to join the organization. Do you really don't think about it?"

"Tsk, let's talk about it when you pay off your debt. Besides, with my genius's vision and knowledge that has been ahead of the world for hundreds of years, I want to send me ten times my salary? At least it's more than 30% of the stocks."

Join an international terrorist organization? Tsk, Mother, I have always been a sunny boy with the correct values, so I will not get involved with you, a group of wanted criminals.

"Is it 30% of the stock market? It's not impossible to discuss it."

Unexpectedly, a soft girl who owes 150 million yuan is so generous. Lu Xi couldn't help but change her ambiguous and hot gaze and stare at the other party's bright eyes. She coughed half-jokingly and half-seriously, and then said in a playful tone: "Well, what if I have any other requests?"

Jifeng raised his eyebrows, blinked his eyes, and then couldn't help but cover his mouth and laughed: "I said, if Lu Xi is really sincere, I am willing to give you a chance. But before that, you must explain your instructions with other girls clearly? As far as I know, the girl who is entangled with Lu Xi is more than His Highness Artoria."

"Tsk, what is entanglement? I just want everyone to be happy." Lu Xi said with a thick face, but as soon as he said this, even he felt embarrassed and threw it to his grandma's house. He finally resisted not giving him a mouth.

"Start up everyone to board the ship as soon as possible. If you get on the ship one day earlier, you will pay less for your living expenses one day, right? For more than 10,000 people, people eat horses and chew every day, astronomical figures."

"I have asked everyone to arrange it. If everything goes well, the fleet that transports everyone can set off the day after tomorrow. Of course, we have to stay for a few more days and wait until the goods take action before leaving. Where is Lu Xi's side? It will take more than half a month for the regular ships to return to the Federation. How do you plan to send it during this period?"

"I really want to travel around first, but unfortunately I don't have that time. When I have time, I will go to the Ziyuan Orphanage to inquire about the information. If I can find Lord Phoenix's daughter in this half month, it is naturally the ideal thing to do. If I can't find it... well, I can only continue to search." Lu Xi shrugged in distress.

No matter what, I have to find it, and I won’t mention the task rewards for now. I don’t want to buy a debuff like “separation of flesh and blood”. Lu Xi made up his mind secretly.

"Oh. You said it was the last wish of the heroic sword saint. Nanoka and Fit also received a lot of care from that adult. Since it was her last wish, they should do their best. As the fleet also came over many people from the organization, I would also ask them to do their best to inquire about the news."

"That's really a big help!" Lu Xi said that the Jifeng Meizi was still very loyal and did not waste her time teaching her a business class. In any case, finding someone is a job that has no technical content, is extremely cumbersome, and the time it takes to be unpredictable, it is always not harmful to have more helpers.

More than 10,000 people boarded the ship and headed south, and a large number of minerals and gems were sold. The expenditure and income of money, and a lot of things, had to organize a nominal second-generation project. In fact, the big leader Jifeng made the decision. Even Nanoka and Fite, two mascots who were not very involved, were arranged for a lot of work, not to mention Fengyun Knights, who were directly under the jurisdiction of Jifeng. Lu Xi, who had a lot of free time, had a silent contempt for the busy three soft girls, but did not continue to disturb him. He led his small team to find a comfortable and quiet hotel and put down his luggage. He asked the hotel owner about the location of the Ziyuan Orphanage.

"It's a bit difficult for the guests to be small. Lenggang is not big, but it's not small. This orphanage is not a cathedral or a museum, even the old citizens may not know about it." The boss's tone was very polite. With his years of experience in his career, he could naturally judge the general identity of the other party from the clothes and temperament of the group of people. He should be a noble young man who came to Bingfeng Valley to travel. He didn't see the other party, and he also brought a beautiful maid, capable follower and tough tauren bodyguard? If he served well, he would naturally have the benefits.

Seeing the "privileged guest" in his eyes showing a distressed look, the boss quickly added: "If you really want to inquire, just go to the city hall to ask. All the buildings in the city are recorded there."

I never thought that this small autonomous territory would already have such humanized municipal services!

Lu Xi sighed a little. After asking about the location of the city hall, he took everyone out and walked through several busy streets. Bypassing a bustling market, he finally found the building that "looks like a watermelon" mentioned by the hotel owner.

The dome-shaped building is a bit close to the style of the Southnes continent in the south, but this is not important. What is important is that the municipal civil servant who received them is a half-ling with a profiteering smile on his face. More importantly, the half-ling told them in a very affirmative tone: The Sir-Orthurium had moved five years ago.

"Relocated? Didn't it mean that there were several sponsored chambers of commerce behind the orphanage? How could it be relocated?"

"Dear Magician, what year are you talking about? "The halfling civil servant is obviously more eye-catching than the hotel owner. He directly saw the identity of Lu Xi and others, and said slowly with a very festive business smile: "The one who has been sponsoring the local dwarf chamber of commerce to the Ziyuan Orphanage is a local dwarf chamber of commerce, but his old president passed away ten years ago, and his successor was not so kind, so he naturally stopped helping. If the orphanage wants to survive, he must think of some solutions."

"Its original site is on the bustling Ziyuan Street in the city center. To be honest, it is a pity to be a good place to build an orphanage. So five years ago, an Auckland Chamber of Commerce bought a piece of land in the maple forest on the outskirts of the city, and then persuaded the orphanage to exchange it with him. Not only is it twice the size of the original place, but it has a beautiful environment and fresh air. It is a good place for children to grow up healthily. It can be said that this is a win-win deal."

Win-win? The land price between the suburbs and the city center is naturally no longer discussed. If the new land of the orphanage is not more than four times the original land, it will be considered a great loss. Even if the orphanage has to move away, it can sell the land and then slowly find a new place with a lot of money.

Look at how this half-living said so well, but who knows how many dirty power and money transactions there are behind him? This kind of thing is nothing like that in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad. However, this is not Lu Xi's business at all, and he can't even control it even if he wants to.

"Do you have any records of adoption or graduation for the orphanage children?" Although he knew that the possibility was not high, Sai Xiliu couldn't help asking more questions.

The half-length man was slightly stunned for a moment, then spread his hands with a bitter smile.

"So, how should I go to the new orphanage?"

"After leaving the city, I walked north along the main road for half a day... But you, the sun is about to set, and it is not safe outside the city at night, and the temperature is too low. If you really want to go, it is best to set off early tomorrow morning."

"Lu Xi, what should we do now?" Sai Xiliu felt that what the halfling said was quite reasonable, but Lu Xi was the one who made the decision in the team.
