Global Plunder: Start with Heart of Darkness

Design drawings?

Wang Dong was obviously taken aback, not expecting Gu Yu to make this request.

Yes, all the drawings for the several expansions of the Temple of War must be given to me.

Gu Yu emphasized.

He knew that all the big forces would design the construction of the castle themselves, plan the layout, and use the land rationally.

In particular, the fortifications of the outer city wall were the top priority of the castle's construction, and the designers devoted a lot of effort.

Even the eight tribesmen did not dare to attack the outer wall of the War Temple, which shows how strong and dangerous it is.

This is exactly what Gu Yu says he lacks now.

The City of Dark Sky is still very small and has no external enemies, so Gu Yu didn't spend much time on the construction of the castle.

But Wang Dong's words today reminded him.

In the future, as the population increases, urban expansion will be inevitable. By then, he must have a construction blueprint.

It is impossible to rely solely on the automatic construction of the system. Not only does it consume huge resources, but the city walls built are also featureless, single and bulky, and lack tactical means of attack and defense.

If he has the castle design drawings of the Temple of War, Gu Yu can use them for his own use with just a slight modification, and he can also increase his civilization index.

Therefore, taking advantage of this rare opportunity, he was determined to obtain the castle design.

Okay, I agree.

Wang Dong took a while, and probably after discussing with others, he finally agreed.

Gu Yu was overjoyed and discussed all the details of the transaction with Wang Dong before ending the chat with satisfaction.

Soon, 100 units of stone were missing from the warehouse, and 10,000 units of energy crystals were added, as well as a thick stack of design drawings.

Wang Dong was very happy and directly traded the first two expansion drawings to Gu Yu, and the remaining drawings would also be traded in batches.

Gu Yu also admired Wang Dong's courage.

Although it is only an outdated design, it will still affect the safety of the castle to some extent. Another person may not be able to trust it to him.

As for the remaining 400 units of stone, Gu Yu has his own way.

When he came to the trading market, Gu Yu checked it out and suddenly smiled.

As expected, although the price of stone on the Earth's human race's trading platform soared, it had little impact on other races.

There are currently two friendly races on the Dark Sky Clan's diplomatic list. In addition to the Dark Night Clan, there is also an Evil Eye Clan.

Ordinary stone is the most common material, so the market prices of the two companies are about the same. Including handling fees, the price of 1 unit of stone is 35 units of energy crystal.

The price will fluctuate up and down with the number of transactions.

There are two races that can be traded, which gives Gu Yu more room to display.

He thought for a moment and called Mei Ninghua over from the training ground.

City Lord, what do you want from me?

Mei Ninghua's tone was not very good. She was exhausted from training, and she had to be summoned here and there by Gu Yu. What a silly girl!

I have an important task now, and I need to use your smart brain.

Gu Yu looked serious, pretending not to see the little girl's dissatisfaction.

Isn't it just a trading market? It seems like no one has seen it before. My house used to be bigger than yours...

Mei Ninghua gave him a big look, but still followed him into the market.

Soon, an incredible exclamation came from the market.

Mei Ninghua could hardly believe her eyes. What did she see?

This small Ankong clan actually has two friendly races, and they are both powerful non-human races!

Gu Yu may not realize what this means, but Mei Ninghua knows it clearly.

Exclusive channel! Monopoly on supply! Huge market!

This is a steady stream of wealth.

Gu Yu can rely on this trading market to quickly earn the price difference and accumulate huge wealth in the early stage.

Originally, when Mei Ninghua came to Dark Sky City, she still had a sense of superiority in her heart.

After all, Iron Blood Castle is a large castle built by thousands of people, while Dark Sky City is just an isolated city.

Although Dark Sky City's racial talents and powerful soldiers, including Ajit, gave her a big shock.

But she never felt that Dark Sky City had the qualifications to challenge the Eight Tribes.

It's not that she can't see Gu Yu's potential, but that there are too few people in Dark Sky City and the resources available are limited, which can't match the development speed of the Eight Tribes.

But this trading market gave Mei Ninghua hope.

Brother Gu, just leave the trading market to me. I promise to accumulate a lot of wealth for you in a short period of time, so that Dark Sky City can develop rapidly!

For the first time, sparks of passion burst out in Mei Ninghua's eyes.

Yes, as long as you can complete a task well, I will let you take full responsibility for the operation of the trading market. Gu Yu said with a smile.

Through the fire of civilization, he sensed that Mei Ninghua's sense of belonging to Dark Sky City had improved a lot.

What mission? Mei Ninghua looked determined.

In three days, collect 400 units of stones. Gu Yu said the task.

no problem!

Mei Ninghua agreed immediately. She thought the task was so difficult, but this?

However, Dark Sky City currently lacks funds. I will give you 10,000 units of energy crystals. You can purchase some of them first, and then continue to purchase them after I take action.

No need to go to so much trouble. I have 10,000 energy crystals here. Just treat them as shares. In the future, you will give me 10% of the dividends from the market. How about you?

Mei Ninghua raised her chin proudly, revealing her snow-white neck.

Uh...deal!

Gu Yu was stunned for a long time before he could hold back two words.

Only then did he remember that the little girl was not poor and had no net worth. She was a second-generation rich man. Although her family was bankrupt, she still had three thousand nails left in the broken ship.

That's all I have, it's the pocket money I saved in my daily life. The supplies in the warehouse in the city cannot be taken away after the war starts. You don't know, right?

As soon as Mei Ninghua looked at Gu Yu's eyes, she knew what he was thinking.

Ahem, it's good to be alive. As for... 10,000 energy crystals, I'll put them into my account. Do you have any objections?

for you!

After a while, Gu Yu ran away under the little girl's contemptuous eyes.

Just when he was about to go back to rest, Liu Qing suddenly appeared in front of him.

Gu Yu, you have assigned tasks to Mei Ninghua, why are you leaving me alone and not assigning tasks?

Miss Liu also wants to save face. Who is Gu Yu looking down on?

Mei Ninghua just sent her a message, saying that she would go all out to operate the trading market and not train at night.

She suddenly felt bad.

Why was Lao Ai entrusted with important tasks as soon as he arrived, and Mei Ninghua also had a task, while she, Miss Liu, was the only one guarding the empty room?

Phew, I also have good skills!

Don't worry, I have an important task for you.

Gu Yu had already expected this and asked Liu Qing to sit down with a smile.

Tell me, if you want to train soldiers, I'm not good at it.

Liu Qing suddenly became energetic, but she was still cautious when speaking.

You said before that you are good at making weapons. I want to put you in charge of the blacksmith house in Dark Sky City.

That's true, but I need capable men. I can't do it alone.

No problem, I will provide you with manpower. You can choose any of the smart and handsome young men from the Ankong clan!

Hmph~

So what, besides being a foundry master, what other life skills do you have?

I know a lot. I've been a prospector, a collector, a construction engineer. I've done them all, uh... I've done them.

Liu Qing, I think it's necessary, let's get to know each other again!

…

That night, Gu Yu slept very soundly, smiling even in his dreams.

…

PS: Three new characters were added today. It took me a lot of time to make the avatars, but I finally found a more satisfactory picture. You can check it out.

Liu Qing's picture originally wanted to find a female gunner, but the only one I was satisfied with was the one holding a gun. It would be perfect if it were replaced with a giant cannon.

That... I won't be doing character covers for the time being, I'll do some research when I have time!
