Chapter 771 -549 Greedy Demon God, Greed Rises Again!_3

The female researcher gave Lu Yuan a sweet smile: “Oh, isn’t this the Great Commander? Haven’t seen you for half a day, why do you look like a dried eggplant?”

The fact is, humans as a species are not suited for long-term work.

Humans are only suited for playing.

Seeing a pretty girl, Lu Yuan’s mood immediately improved.

He said with a bitter face: “Tired, huh, having meetings all day long makes me wanna curse. Maybe we should just elope. Anyway, there are four human weakling cities here, no one would notice if we blend in.”

“I think… it’s because you can’t embezzle, so you don’t want to work.” Miss Conch gave him a sideways glance, looking very disdainful.

Lu Yuan really couldn’t embezzle, with the Trading Market, the accounts were too transparent.

Even if he took a piece of ore, he’d be caught!

“Am I such a greedy existence in your eyes?” Lu Yuan made a pitiful face.

Miss Conch rolled her eyes: “Aren’t you? You want the best of everything, even your wife has to be the prettiest.”

“Luckily, you found a cute and unique wife, otherwise, you’d be staring enviously at others’ wives every day.”

“Is this how you praise yourself?” Lu Yuan rubbed his hands together, showing an evil grin.

“Uh… what do you mean… can’t you stay a little further? I am a married woman, back off!”

Lu Yuan looked around, seeing no one, he leaned closer and whispered: “You’re obviously just a palace maid, how can you add scenes for yourself?”

“Come, massage the Emperor’s shoulders, serve me well, and I’ll grant you the status of a consort.”

“Isn’t it supposed to be Empress? What… what is a consort?” Miss Conch stammered, getting a bit anxious.

When she gets nervous, she stutters a little, a problem she just can’t shake.

Lu Yuan swayed his head, feeling pleasant: “In my Lücao Dynasty, the Greedy Emperor can have 1 Empress, 1 Imperial Concubine, 2 Noble Concubines, 4 Concubines, 6 Concubines, and an unlimited number of other harem members.”

“Consort is naturally the smallest, the one bullied every day.”

Lu Yuan lowered his head, nudging her with his noggin: “If you perform better, I’ll promote you to Noble.”

“Get lost!” Miss Conch fiercely tapped his noggin, then used a certain charm ability.

Although the two had been a couple for a long time, model couples aren’t just for show. Seeing her struggle, Lu Yuan got even more excited.

At this moment, footsteps echoed in the corridor, and the two immediately sat up straight, pretending to be very serious, starting to discuss “True Dreams.”

“Hello, everyone!” Lu Yuan’s tone was very serious.

“Hello, Great Commander!”

Conch Girl quietly scribbled a few words on his palm—what a pretender!

After greeting, the two walked out hand in hand.

At the moment, Green Grass City was still flying in the sky, and after ten days, they were about to reach their destination.

The temperature in the geothermal area was obviously higher than elsewhere, and the snow was more sparse. The number of green plants and small animals had greatly increased, displaying a vibrant scene before their eyes. freewebnøvel.com

The great number is fifty, heaven makes forty-nine, leaving one line competing with man, 99% of the Northern Territory is perpetually extremely cold, rarely visited.

However, in the 1% geothermal area, the temperature is around minus 10 degrees Celsius, with a lot of life proliferating.

The distribution of these geothermal areas is quite random, some showing linear distribution, others block distribution, with the average temperature in some volcanic areas exceeding 0 degrees Celsius.

“See that frozen lake? That lake is big, covering an area of 12,191 square kilometers. Because of its very deep depth, we believe its water storage is similar to the former Lake Baikal. There are many fish inside, some fish can grow to over ten meters.”

“In the hundreds of years to come, we will settle near the lake.” Lu Yuan felt a small anticipation inside, as industrial development requires a large amount of water resources.

Lying by the mountains and water, with fish and minerals, the Wulan Clan indeed offered a good spot.

Further out, hundreds of drilling machines, road rollers were compacting the road surfaces.

The chosen location for Green Grass City was only about 50 kilometers from Wulan City, with a highway and a railway set to be completed within half a year. By then, the two sides could use trains.

Many excavators were leveling the small hills.

Only when the ground was smooth could the Floating Fortress formally descend.

What’s more, the first deal had already been negotiated!

Wulan City ordered 20 cannons, 100 engraving machine guns, 20 electric buses, and a small Floating Fortress — total value of 5 Civilization Points.

This is just the appetizer; in the future, such orders will become more frequent!

Whichever way you think, humans will have a glorious future!

“Meow, meow, meow!” Old Cat strutted with its tail high, “The feeling of making money is great.”

Clearly, its mood has been extremely pleasant lately, with a strong sense of achievement.

Lu Yuan suddenly felt desolate; he understood why he had no motivation to work.

The reason was truly that he couldn’t embezzle openly — the trade in this market is conducted under everyone’s watchful eyes, making it really hard for him to take a cut!

“Comrade, when can we sell divine skills?” Old Cat jumped onto the table to inquire.

“These things are the main source of income.”

“I’m too busy recently, need to deal with the issue of field industrialization first… Good progress has been made so far.” Lu Yuan rubbed his temple, a bit helpless, “Moreover, selling ‘divine skills’ involves too much; I’m worried that there will be disputes within mankind.”

Humans haven’t been able to provide everyone with a divine skill yet, openly selling it to alien races would inevitably raise public opinion issues.

Such matters are hard to explain.

What’s more, replicating divine skills requires consuming “Luck,” and humans’ current three thousand-plus Civilization Points can’t all be consumed.

This matter is too disruptive to tradition, not fearing scarcity but inequality; Lu Yuan hasn’t figured out an internal distribution plan for humans.

As for selling to other races, obviously, no distribution problem is needed, as long as they provide enough “Luck,” that’s all.

“You’ve considered things thoroughly. But this feature can’t be left unused forever…” Old Cat’s whiskers shook twice, “If you can produce 10,000 craftsmanship abilities, meow, what a huge talent lineup would that be?”

It couldn’t help but start imagining the future.

“No, I don’t want to expose this feature for now. Let’s not mention the huge consumption of replication abilities; ten thousand craftsmen are unrealistic, calm down…” Lu Yuan scratched his head and showed a troubled expression.

“Divine skill involves too many stake relationships. Internal conflicts among humans will inevitably appear, naturally existing ones, and those issued by society, will all be somewhat different.”

This is indeed a fact.

In battles with the South Island Civilization, humans confiscated a batch of divine skills.

The distribution of those few hundred divine skills took over two hundred years, given to recognized outstanding individuals, only then avoiding major conflicts…

That is, distributing only a few per year, there was still some social commentary.

If greatly increased in the future, the distribution of such benefits would be more troublesome.

Lu Yuan continued, “And once other races know this fact, humans’ status will become more transcendent, this transcendence differs from setting up a trading market, belonging to the kind where if the sky falls, someone must go up and hold it… Do you understand? The Northern Territory only has poor, low-level civilizations, but what about the outside world? Surely, there are civilizations stronger than us out there, and they will covet us.”

“Furthermore, replicating divine skills, who knows what kind of taboos might be involved. Ah, truly troublesome.”

Old Cat was silent; it admitted Lu Yuan had a point.

Setting up a trading market, the strength of Green Grass City is visible and tangible, also acceptable to many civilizations.

Selling divine skills, this strength is excessively strong!

Yet humans do not match such strength with their capabilities.

The saying goes, “When one’s virtue doesn’t match their position, misfortune will follow; when one doesn’t match their wealth, loss will occur.” Humans really aren’t suitable!

Just then, Miss Conch suddenly suggested, “Your Immortal Palace has never been exposed to this world, human civilization is also unaware.”

“Perhaps you could make a luxurious [temple] in the Northern Territory.”

“How about trading divine skills in the [temple]?”

Her eyes were bright, clapping her hands, “If humans need divine skills, they can also go to the [temple] to buy them.”

“At that time, you pretend not to know, just conduct a normal transaction… Humans can’t possibly purchase too many anyway.”

“And you, Greedy Demon God, could gain a lot of luck. No need to covet the meager gains humans are making,”

The air was silent for a while.

Seems like… perhaps… probably… feasible!

This is almost a perfect plan, capable of stripping away the risks to human civilization, without any distribution issues.
