Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 765: Chapter 78: The Prosperous Lake Reiflin and the Alluring Yet Powerful Snake Woman, Hela (Part 2)

With a wave of its hand, it seemed to rain pearls from the sky, hundreds of pearls the size of hailstones fell along with a splash of lake water beside the weeping willows.

”Such a beautiful lake, yet there are so many filthy things inside, it’s really a pity. From now on, you can summon me once every quarter, and I will come to help you clean up this garbage.”

Joyful sounds came from the Dawn Nuns on the shore, 457 Light-Scaled Fish?

This number is almost 1 to 2 times more than their estimate, the hidden wealth in this lake is truly immense, its vast area and resources hidden at the bottom of the water have always been beyond human control.

And with the Algae Heart Sage’s thorough investigation, everything surfaced completely. Including Duin Claw, Su Li had only the impression of two, when did they multiply to six?

But no matter how you look at it, this is the vibrancy of the territory since this spring.

Melly Ramsey was also astonished: ”So just the hidden wealth in this single lake exceeds 50,000 Golden Crowns? I am a follower of Manan and have never seen a lake with so many resources.”

Vandar beamed with delight, after all, all of this could be credited to their Dawn Church, he said with a smile: ”It’s not that exaggerated, over half of these 457 Light-Scaled Fish are likely young fish hatched since this spring. The two Magic Tide Pearls sent by Princess Philis arrived not long ago, so these young fish are still relatively small in size. This is also a major reason why our estimated numbers differ so greatly now. We estimate that about 50 Light-Scaled Fish are salable.”

Light-Scaled Fish, that’s more than 5000 Golden Crowns. To any caravan, this is quite a fortune.

Even though Su Li currently holds tens of thousands of Golden Crowns, an income like this 5000 is still very considerable. One must know that the territory’s finances are supported by income accumulated bit by bit like this.

There is no item that can make the territory prosperous overnight, providing tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of profits all at once.

Melly Ramsey also beamed with joy upon hearing this and immediately said: ”Then we’ll purchase all 50 Light-Scaled Fish! We’ll take these back to Marle Castle and sell them using our trade network.”

Su Li raised his hand to interrupt his speech and said: ”What I need isn’t merely to sell these Light-Scaled Fish. Gold coins are not very important to me at the moment. What I care more about is using these Light-Scaled Fish to open a network of connections.”

Melly Ramsey smiled and said: ”I understand what you mean. You want to replace Baron Grant’s role and bind those Dukes and Counts to you.”

”That’s right, I don’t demand they turn to support me just yet. At least they shouldn’t obstruct me when I attack the Blue Mirror Territory.”

”No problem! Our Ramsey family will emphasize the source of these Light-Scaled Fish while selling them, that they are Light-Scaled Fish from Lake Reiflin.”

The formation of a specialty’s reputation is still crucial. It’s like Wei Mountain Lake carp or Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs; when people hear the name, they are willing to pay a premium. Su Li surely hopes the Light-Scaled Fish from Lake Reiflin can gain such fame as well.

Upon reaching an agreement, the Dawn Church people began to catch Light-Scaled Fish from the lake. With the presence of Crimson Pearls, the fishing process was relatively quick.

It only took about three hours for the Dawn Church Nuns to bring up 50 Light-Scaled Fish to deliver to the Ramsey family’s Manan Priest. These 50 or so fish were relatively large and fat, with a weight value exceeding expectations, reaching 6730 Golden Crowns.

The value of the Crimson Pearls was even more beyond everyone’s expectations, reaching over 9300 Golden Crowns. Mainly because the Algae Heart Sage helped the territory clear out all the cavern corals! Su Li was rather fortunate that his trade partner happened to be a follower of Manan, able to sell these precious pearls to the Empire’s southwestern province and Claw Sea coast. Otherwise, getting 3000 Golden Crowns for this batch of pearls would already be considered quite a profit.

While they were waiting here, Melly also advanced another important task of this trip for the Ramsey family. Upon her summons, a Snake Woman was brought to the side of Lake Reiflin.

The arrival of this Snake Woman caused a stir along the line, for truth be told, they are still occasionally seen within the Medusa Empire, but a Snake Woman from the far East is truly a rare sight in the Empire.

Even the diplomatic envoys from Zhendan Celestial Dynasty would have to visit the palace area near Terrabheim to see one, let alone such a rare species from the southeast of Zhendan.

Under the theme of dragons and tigers, this kind of Snake Woman in the East takes on the existence similar to a New Luo maidservant, twisting her water snake waist, her elegant demeanor seeming like a classical beauty stepping out of an Eastern scroll, charming yet graceful, starkly different from the heroic female knights within the Empire, attracting countless men to madly watch.

Even Su Li couldn’t help but glance a few more times, for he too was somewhat of an enthusiast for exotic creatures. It should be said that no one wouldn’t envy Xu Xian for playing with snakes.

Especially since this Snake Woman had a slender and fragile appearance, naturally inviting compassion, further arousing men’s desire to conquer her.

At the same time, her attire was distinctly different from the Empire’s. Her ebony hair was styled in a cascading cloud bun, with a gilded silver snake hairpin obliquely inserted amidst, and a cinnabar mole between her brows added a touch of mystery. Her amber vertical pupils glimmered with a cold, eerie light, and her eye corners were adorned with jade green scales, while snake-shaped silver earrings dangled from her earlobes, swaying with every motion, perfectly blending a sense of danger with vulnerability.
