"Master, why do all the disciples have axes?"
Cheng Yi saw that his disciples had finished their training. Each of them took out an axe from their room, with a slightly excited expression on their faces, and went down the mountain together.
Lu Qing said: "Cut down trees."
"Chopping trees?" Cheng Yi was stunned for a moment, then said, "Chopping trees is good. It can train your waist, legs, and arms. When I teach them the Zhengyi Jutsu in a few days, they will be able to adapt faster."
However, players cut down trees naturally to sell them for money.
In Bei'an City, the materials with the greatest demand and the highest prices are wood and coal.
The coal business was completely monopolized by Wang Fu, and the only thing left for the common people was the timber business.
But wood is heavy and bulky, so there are very few caravans that would travel long distances to Bei'an City just to sell this low-profit commodity.
Outside the city, only a small number of farmers are willing to run forest farms.
After all, this thing has a long payback period and many uncertainties.
Even if there is any, the wood they grow is the fast-growing kind. It is okay to make paper and small furniture, but you would never use it to build a house.
Moreover, even if the growth time of fast-growing wood is half that of ordinary wood, it still takes four to eight years to harvest.
If the residents of Bei'an City really need wood, they will take the risk and form a team to enter Ningqing Mountain to cut down trees.
The Cangxia Sect owns the entire Ningqing Mountain, and its most abundant resource is, of course, the trees.
There are many trees that are dozens or even hundreds of years old! Deep in the mountains, there are even thousand-year-old trees! However, those places are often infested with wild beasts, and it is difficult to transport the trees after they are cut down.
"Second brother, we watched a video about chopping down trees yesterday, but it wasn't that tiring."
Qin Feng looked at the axe stuck in the tree, wiped his sweat, and sat down beside it to relieve his tiredness.
Wang Ze said, "I think there's something wrong with our choice of tree. It's so hard that three people can't even hug it. But, come on! I've already cut a hole. Next, cut another one on the back. Then, push it, and the tree will fall."
"I feel like you're a white hat worker on a construction site." Du Yu took a big gulp of water and complained.
"What should I do? I'm out of energy after running up the mountain. You don't want me to chop down trees anymore, do you? No way, no way? I used contribution points to exchange for a tree encyclopedia!" Wang Ze made a surprised expression. "Look at the broken end. This is redwood. It's reasonable for it to be a little harder! And I've asked around in Bei'an City. This stuff is really expensive!"
Without the assistance of advanced tools, logging is a job that requires both physical strength and skills.
Most of the players' physical strength has been consumed in running up the mountain, and now they are a bit overdrawn if they want to chop down trees again.
"It would be nice if one of you chose the lumberjack talent."
"Stop bickering and start chopping!"
There are already players chopping down trees nearby.
After the trees fell, they were cut into sections with a saw, then carried onto carts together, dragged to the camp at the foot of the mountain, and then loaded onto trucks and sent to Bei'an City.
Although the teleportation array is easy to use, it cannot transport large goods, and there is a thirty-minute cooldown time each time it is used.
“It’s ridiculous that the tree felling is so realistic!”
"How great it would be if we could just scratch out a piece of wood with just two strokes, just like in MC!"
"When my cultivation level reaches a certain level, I will use my flying sword to cut down all the trees on this mountain!"
"According to the nature of the plan, the trees will become even tougher by then."
"What's a level 70 crayfish?"
…
Lu Qing saw that everyone at the foot of the mountain was working hard, and glanced at the assistant's panel. He found that with the frequent activities of the players, the sect's reputation was also steadily increasing.
It won’t be long before you reach LV3.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were not many players on the mountain, Lu Qing divided the spirit stones that Cheng Yi had found into ten pieces and put them into Tianyuan Pavilion.
Tianyuan Pavilion is a square three-story building with a tightly closed door.
On the first floor, there is a constantly rotating vortex of spiritual energy.
After Lu Qing put in the spirit stone, the vortex began to rotate faster. After more than ten seconds, three things were spit out from the vortex and hung directly on the shelf on the side.
These three items are a Level 5 Iron-Slashing Sword, a Water-Repellent Pill, and a copy of "Three Styles of Sword Control." They are listed in ascending order of value.
The quality of the Iron-Cutting Sword is comparable to the weapon used by the leader of Qingshan Village.
The water-repellent pill allows people to breathe underwater. It remains effective as long as it is held in the mouth. In some cases, it is a treasure of extremely high value.
The book "Three Styles of Sword Control" was a genuine immortal technique. Its value was even higher than the "Mountain Moving Technique" and "Water Control Technique" that could be exchanged in the warehouse.
Exchanging ten spirit stones for these three things is not a loss at all.
If all one hundred closed beta test players buy prize tickets, the winning rate will be three percent.
Set the price of purchasing the reward ticket to 20 contributions. Activate Tianyuan Pavilion once and you can get back 2,000 contributions.
The players enjoyed the lottery, and Lu Qing received his contribution, and everyone was happy.
What's more, there are three lucky people who can reap the joy of winning the prize.
Feeling the spiritual energy fluctuations of Tianyuan Pavilion, Cheng Yi and Sun Lu also came to watch.
Cheng Yi originally thought that Lu Qing was only good at swordsmanship, but he didn't expect that he was also so proficient in formations. He was completely confused by the operating mechanism of Tianyuan Pavilion.
Sun Lu had roughly the same idea.
After arranging Tianyuan Pavilion, Lu Qing returned to his residence and began to study some plans provided by Sun Lu.
These plans are very detailed and can be arranged under the existing conditions.
