311 The Capitalist Su Wan

If the other Overlords found out that Su Wan was now the vice president of the Dark Region City, they would be immensely jealous.

Only a few Lords were worthy of such a title. Most of them didn’t even have the qualification to summon a high-level hero.

[Congratulations, Lord Su Wan! You are now the Vice President of the Dark Region City!]

[The underground people hold you in high esteem. You now have a very high status. You obtained 1 Underground World Legendary Point.]

Su Wan was euphoric.

[Legendary Level: Limited to the Underground World]

[Additional characteristic: Intimidation will cause fear in enemies whose level is lower than you, making them revere you. There is a small chance of recruiting Dungeon Heroes to join you. When you enter an Underground City, your favorability with them will automatically increase.]

The attributes were good! Moreover, she had gotten this title for free!

If Su Wan could obtain more Legendary Points in the future, the attributes would increase drastically. Maybe one day she could become so legendary that her mere name would make enemies flee in fear. It felt like she was a goddess now.

Unfortunately, the Legendary Points were only effective in the underground world.

Felix invited them to his mansion. They made their way to the hall and sat down.

“Are the remaining dwarves causing trouble here?” asked Su Wan.

“Ever since they were chased away by His Majesty, they don’t even dare to approach the Dark Region City, let alone cause any sort of trouble,” said Felix.

The dwarves had even given up the territories they had seized before. Felix looked a little sentimental. He didn’t know how to thank Xu Yuan.

However, the next moment, his face darkened. “Vice President Su Wan, the dwarves haven’t given up entirely. Some are looking for a way to deal with His Majesty, Xu Yuan. They have placed a bounty of ten million units of food on his head.”

“Ten million units of food?!” exclaimed Su Wan.

Xu Yuan was speechless. ‘Why is Su Wan getting excited?’

He realized that she coveted the ten million units of food.

“That only proves that the dwarves don’t have the means to defeat Xu Yuan on their own, so they are trying to attract someone else who would be willing to fight Xu Yuan. Don’t worry. I know how powerful Xu Yuan is,” said Su Wan as she waved her hand dismissively.

Felix explained that the dwarves had an alchemy weapon that was hundreds of times more powerful than alchemy cannons.

A hundred years ago, when Dark Region City was at its strongest, they had once suppressed the dwarves from the Furnace City. However, in the end, they had failed anyway.

A powerful creature was buried underneath the terrifying alchemy weapon to seal it away.

“The dwarves’ weapons are indeed powerful. However, they usually make huge weapons that are only suitable for defense purposes,” said Su Wan reassuringly. “There is no need to worry.”

As long as she didn’t go to the Furnace City, everything would be fine.

Su Wan wondered if the Dark Region City had such a weapon too. If they did, why didn’t they use it?

“That weapon was destroyed.” Felix looked sad.

It was no wonder they feared the dwarves. The Dark Region City had lost its one weapon that might have defeated the dwarves.

She asked for more information on the dwarves and the Furnace City. Felix tried his best to answer her.

This underground world had long been considered a forbidden area for outsiders. The Furnace City was the most significant threat to the Dark Region City right now.

“How many weapons did you order from the outsiders?” asked Su Wan.

“Plenty. I spread the news first, and then bought them in exchange for units of food,” said Felix.

In these ten days, dozens of merchant caravans entered the Dark Region City. Felix hadn’t expected such dramatic success in his endeavor. He was excited and nervous at the same time.

He was excited because his offered price was accepted willingly by the outsiders. If he sold these weapons at a reasonable price to Lord Su Wan, the Dark Region City would make a fortune.

However, Felix was nervous. He had spent a lot of food in exchange for weapons. The food resources were decreasing drastically.

If his other part of the plan didn’t succeed, the Dark Region City would face famine and starvation.

Thankfully, he had made the right decision. He told Su Wan as much. She was happy to hear that everything was working out for him.

Su Wan also felt that she had made the right decision when she proposed a trade relationship with the Dark Region City.

She didn’t need to do anything now. She just needed to pay Felix and watch him do all the work. All she needed to do was sit back and relax.

This reminded her of the European nobles of the Blue Star during the medieval voyage era. They exchanged cheap industrial products for expensive gemstones in the New World. They had reaped profit while harming others.

Su Wan wasn’t like that. Her territory and the Dark Region City benefited mutually from this trade endeavor.

“Felix, have the weapons ready. We’ll pay with units of food,” said Su Wan.

“Vice President Su Wan, there are still many caravans that have yet to arrive. Shouldn’t we wait for them to enter the Dark Region City first?” asked Felix.

“Felix, those caravans and the merchants within are here to make a deal with you. Lord Su Wan is only here to buy the weapons she needs,” said Xu Yuan.

Felix’s eyes lit up. He looked at Xu Yuan with admiration. The trade would fetch him millions of units of food. Felix was euphoric.

Felix wondered if he would have done the same in their place. It would probably be extremely difficult for him to agree to trade in food. This made him respect Xu Yuan and Su Wan even more. The goddess of fortune was definitely blessing him!

“Felix, our trade relationship will last for a long time. You better set a reasonable price with the merchants so that they don’t feel like they are at a loss from this transaction,” said Xu Yuan.

Su Wan listened attentively. She knew Xu Yuan. He wouldn’t make such a suggestion lightly.

Cheating someone off of their resources or goods right at the beginning would harm the possibility of maintaining a long-term trade relationship. Moreover, most outsiders would be vigilant. They might not even transport all the goods as promised.
