First and foremost, these were used to purchase various rare resources.

For him, no amount of rare resources would ever be enough.

Starting from tier five units, recruiting any of them would require a substantial amount of rare resources. Basic resources like wood and clay were no longer relevant.

For each tier five unit, even the less powerful ones, recruiting a single unit required at least a hundred units of rare resources. Take the Tyrant Azure Dragon, for example, which was considered a powerful tier five unit. Recruiting one required a staggering 2,400 units, equivalent to a minimum of a hundred thousand units when converted into regular resources. It was simply incomparable.

Apart from unit recruitment, Ji Chen’s exclusive military talent tree was also a resource-consuming endeavor. Upgrading tier four units to tier five cost tens of thousands of rare resources, and advancing heroes was an even greater drain on resources.

This was why Ji Chen had refrained from investing in his military talent tree for quite some time. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to enhance his territorial military strength, but rather he couldn’t afford it!

He withdrew three million gold coins from the four million at hand to purchase a batch of rare resources.

Of course, this quantity of rare resources wasn’t something an ordinary merchant could provide. To obtain them quickly, he needed the help of a major player like the Elves, or well-connected individuals like Gilder.

However, when he sent someone to inquire, he was informed that Gilder had left Maple City a couple of days ago to deal with business elsewhere.

On the elven side, Miligas had also returned to the Elven capital a few days ago, and Commander Yasen had likewise set sail with the Elven Middle Ocean’s Fifth Fleet yesterday, leaving Ji Chen with no means to ask about obtaining the qualification to sell wine in the Maple Principality.

Thankfully, there were still Elf officials remaining in Maple City, and the Military Officer, Brett, was among them. With Miligas gone, he had become the highest-ranking Elf official in Maple City. Upon hearing Ji Chen’s request for help from the Elves, he readily agreed.

He immediately patted his chest and assured Ji Chen that he would take care of it. Through Elf channels, he arranged for the transfer of three million gold coins worth of rare resources.

Upon a quick calculation, the three million gold coins were exchanged for a total of three hundred thousand units of rare resources, with one hundred thousand units each of crystal, adamantite, and mithril.

Currently, Ji Chen had in his possession a total of two hundred and forty thousand units of crystal, two hundred and forty thousand units of adamantite, and two hundred and ten thousand units of mithril, amounting to a grand total of six hundred and ninety thousand units of rare resources.

With this substantial sum, the power of the Crown of the Ocean could undoubtedly reach a whole new level.

He now had one million gold coins left from the initial four million. Ji Chen considered for a moment and decided to withdraw five hundred thousand gold coins to leave with Raymond, who would be staying in the Maple Principality for an extended period. As the trade officer for the Crown of the Ocean, he occasionally required a substantial amount of funding to facilitate trade operations.

Raymond, who now had 500,000 gold coins at his disposal, was both excited and grateful.

However, he had no hint of greed in his heart.

For him, he had transformed from the merchant who once chased after profits and gold coins into a Trade Officer with grand ambitions.

His goal had evolved from mere wealth accumulation to making the Crown of the Ocean an unparalleled and mighty territory, far removed from lowly interests.

After Ji Chen’s lavish spending, most of the 4 million gold coins were directly used up, but the remaining 500,000 gold coins still constituted a wealth that made every player around envious.

He hadn’t yet decided how to spend the remaining 500,000 gold coins and couldn’t help but sigh that even wealth could be a source of trouble.

Just as he was contemplating how to generously spend the money, someone suddenly requested a private chat.

Ji Chen casually opened the message and saw a somewhat unfamiliar name.

“Big Boss Islander, we’ve arrived at Maple Harbor. When can we trade for the Bone Forge?”

Reading the private message, he finally recalled that before leaving for Maple Harbor, he had made an arrangement with several players to meet here for the trade of the Bone Forge they had obtained from the Skeletons’ Mystic Realm.

After so many days had passed and with all the recent events involving the Elves and the Deceiver, he had almost forgotten about this arrangement.

After a moment’s thought, he replied, “You can come directly to the northwest side of Maple City. The address is…”

He provided them with the address of his estate.

Soon enough, a group of five players appeared outside the Crown of the Ocean’s estate, halting their steps.

Through the elegantly crafted wrought-iron gate of the estate, they could catch a glimpse of the vast expanse of green grass, the elegant European-style gardens and courtyards, and the mansion-like buildings, each possessing exceptional aesthetic value.

“Boss, is this the place? Why does it feel like we’re in a rich neighborhood?

These are all gigantic estates.”

“Yeah, it must be some kind of wealthy district. There are more patrolling soldiers here than outside, and they’re all watching us like we’re thieves.”

Among the five players, the one who appeared the most mature hesitated for a moment, then carefully reviewed the private message. He said, “That’s right, what Big Boss Islander mentioned is indeed this estate. There’s no doubt about it.”

“I can’t believe it. We’ve only been away for a few months, and he’s already obtained such a huge property. Is he aiming for the stars or something?”

“No need for pointless talk. Islander Boss is such a formidable person; anything is possible for him.”

The players chattered amongst themselves.

At this moment, the estate’s main gate in front of them swung open, revealing a well-dressed butler who stepped out. He took a brief look at the five Glory Lords in front of him and then greeted them with impeccable courtesy..
