Chapter 961 - 129: The Fantastical Layout and Numerous Divisions of the Black Pine Forest_4
This period can truly be considered fruitful, so when he was about to set off to the Dwarf Kingdom, he deliberately returned to Hesse Territory to bid farewell to Su Li, while also taking along the army and the last batch of trading goods.
He would not return at least for the rest of the year. After all, escorting such a vast amount of goods is a long journey back.
With the departure of the Expeditionary Corps, Dwarf Legion, and numerous caravans, the entire Hesse Territory has a sudden quiet after the bustling commotion. Just like during a festival, when visitors leave after a lively gathering, everything suddenly quiets down, the lights dimming.
Of course, after a brief period of discomfort, Su Li greatly enjoyed the tranquility that settled in.
During this period, he was rather at ease; although the territory’s finances haven’t turned from deficit to surplus, there are over 50,000 Golden Crowns lying on his account, enough to support him through to the summer harvest or even the autumn harvest.
But clearly, that is not possible; according to the current vigorous development of the territory, there will be a large harvest by autumn, and the fame of Hesse’s Holy Purple Vine Tree has spread greatly due to this Radiant Festival.
Dwarf Lords, Engineering Masters, human Mages, and renowned merchants have already sent people ahead to Hesse Territory to contact Su Li and reserve these Holy Purple Vine Pods.
In the eyes of ordinary people, these powerful fruits, extraordinary treasures that can extend life, are not only expensive but surely very rare!
But they have all underestimated the yield of the Holy Purple Vine Tree. This Holy Purple Vine Pod can produce over 200 portions every year, enough to extend the life of hundreds by one year.
Just last year, when it first began to bear fruit, it brought Su Li more than 20,000 Golden Crowns in revenue.
The pods may be more abundant this year, while their value is even higher.
One year of life, although not too much, is quite substantial. At least for some of the great nobles, they are very willing to spend thousands to buy these Holy Purple Vine Pods.
Su Li is waiting for the effect of these Holy Purple Vine Pods to spread, so he isn’t engaging in any scarcity marketing.
Engaging in such small tactics now would only impact his large-scale real wealth. He needs more people to experience the effects and spread this miraculous extraordinary ability.
Now, being stingy in scarcity marketing, even if it raises the price by two or three times, would only earn an extra hundred or eighty Gold Coins.
Su Li is very ambitious; he wants to earn money from those who are truly wealthy, the great nobles.
By the time the great nobles widely recognize the value of the Holy Purple Vine Pod, a single pod could easily earn thousands of Golden Crowns.
Isn’t this wiser than stingy scarcity marketing, which would damage his reputation?
Therefore, anyone who inquires, Su Li promises that during the autumn harvest this year, there will definitely be a portion of Holy Purple Vine Pods reserved for them.
Moreover, the price is very favorable, only 280 Golden Crowns, slightly higher than last year, but the increase is under 50%. Truly realizing that if they support Hesse Territory, Hesse Territory treats them as friends.
This also allowed him to smoothly harvest a lot of friendships, considered a common utility of the extraordinary spiritual plants.
In such a life, of course, Su Li couldn’t do without diligently training under the Holy Purple Vine Tree, and Aeliria was completely conquered by him.
The temperament and strength of this Little Green Dragon, under the blessing of the Wind of Jilun, increasingly approached maturity, wearing the Emerald Crown, resembling a cold and noble Queen. Such temperament is something illusion techniques can never imitate; you either have it or you don’t. It made Su Li’s sense of conquest exceptionally overflowing.
