Chapter 432: Chapter 432
Lin Rui immediately opened one too.

[Ding, received Resource Pack (small) *1]
[Ding, received "Book of Wisdom" *1]
[Ding, received Life Potion *2]
[Ding, received Enhanced-level Weapon (Green) Venom Fang Spear *2]

[Ding, received one-time item [Eye of Surveillance] *2]
[Ding, received Tier One Spiritual Gem *10]
[Ding, received Ordinary-level Armor Guard Giant Shield *5]
"Wow~" Audrey and Yuyu were simultaneously shocked with wide eyes.
"Is this the level of loot from a bronze treasure chest? A silver treasure chest would normally yield this kind of stuff! And the key is, this wasn’t even a lucky burst!"
Yuyu couldn’t help but reach out and poke Lin Rui’s cheek with her soft fingers: "Let me see what makes this face so appealing that the Goddess is willing to spend for you."
Lin Rui brushed away her meddling fingers, reasoning that even he was a bit surprised by the wealth from a single bronze treasure chest.
This almost matched the level of the lucky burst from before.
It seems the effect of improving the Luck Level is indeed very noticeable.
Audrey immediately opened a treasure chest as well to try her luck.
[Ding, you opened a bronze treasure chest and received "Experience Book" *2]
[Ding, received Resource Pack (small) *1]
[Ding, received Realm Coin *350]
[Ding, received Ordinary-level Crossbow *2]
Audrey instantly jumped from her chair in excitement: "Yay, Lord, with the good fortune you’ve left within me, my bad luck is finally starting to fade! I’m not going to be as poor as before!"
Yuyu looked at the few items in front of her treasure chest, finding it hard to believe: "Sis, how unlucky were you when opening treasure chests before? You’re this happy over just a few items?"
Audrey gritted her teeth in frustration: "Those days were best forgotten! But now my luck has turned, and I’m going to make that green tea pay back everything she owes me. I want a lucky burst too!" Get full chapters from novel⚑fire.net
With Audrey’s vigorous determination, the three began to efficiently open treasure chests, and soon, all 1487 bronze chests were opened. Lin Rui took a moment to count, and lucky bursts occurred a total of 101 times.
Among them, Lin Rui had 70 lucky bursts, Yuyu had 30, and Audrey opened the most chests but only had a pitiful one lucky burst.
Despite this, she excitedly put her hands on her hips and summoned all her summoned creatures to help organize the items they had obtained. The thrill of looting with the Goddess of Fortune watching over was something money couldn’t buy.
Perhaps that’s why, despite the Goddess of Fortune’s gaze, she hugged Lin Rui from behind and joyfully said, "Dear father, thank you for your generosity. I promise to repay you well tonight. Please, just lie back and enjoy, I’ll take care of you."
Lin Rui really couldn’t resist such temptation.
Compared to this benefit, the wealth Audrey missed out on by opening the treasure chests really wasn’t worth mentioning. It was just a few hundred pieces of green Enhanced-level equipment, after all.
As long as Audrey was happy, in the next cycle, she would willingly lead her army of tens of thousands all over, and quickly recover what was lost. Of course, even if she didn’t, Lin Rui wouldn’t mind. Accumulating wealth was all for the sake of expecting everything to turn out better than intended.
And to have everything turn out better means that the result surprises you pleasantly, beyond your initial imaginations.
Evidently, now, the outcomes are turning out a bit better than Lin Rui initially envisioned for his life.
Lin Rui selected over three thousand "Experience Books" from his numerous gains and handed them to Silver Moon, saying to the little girl: "Distribute this batch of ’Experience Books’ to all the architects, a hundred for each person. You can keep the extra as your delivery fee."
That’s right, Lin Rui’s method of boosting the Commander Value for the architects was extremely simple: raise their levels, letting them improve their attributes themselves!
They are in livelihood professions, their tiers aren’t high, pour in a ton of Experience, and soon each can gain more than ten Command Points, enough to command hundreds of farmers!
No one truly believed he’d use precious attribute-boosting items to increase their Commander Value separately, right?
Then, Lin Rui took out all the "Farmer Recruitment Scrolls" totaling 78.
These could recruit 780 farmers—a quick method to strengthen internal affairs.
He handed them all to Silver Moon and said: "Pass this ’Farmer Recruitment Scroll’ to the civil servant, Caroline, instruct her to build city walls and dwellings urgently, regardless of costs."
Silver Moon loved errands with delivery fees, immediately stacking books tall, up to six or seven meters, and started the deliveries trip after trip. Her physique was strong, balance excellent, though the towering stack wobbled, it never fell.
During her numerous book deliveries, the wealth from opening bronze treasure chests was tallied.
Over thirteen thousand ordinary-level equipment, three thousand eight hundred enhanced-level equipment, and more than a thousand items boosting Life Value/Defense Value/Spiritual Energy Value.
Most importantly, almost two thousand small resource packs!
For the first time, Lin Rui discovered that opening bronze treasure chests could yield such a bounty. Opening two thousand small resource packs amounted to a full one million units of various resources.
Such a haul, ordinary soldiers couldn’t handle, so Lin Rui had Audrey use her spatial treasures to transport all of it to the armory.
He then started opening Silver Treasure Chests.
[Ding, you opened a Silver Treasure Chest, and Goddess of Fortune’s gaze once swept past it; you received the goddess’s favor!]
[Received Resource Pack (medium) *5]
[Ding, received exquisite dish [Lotus Leaf Sticky Rice Chicken] *3]
[Ding, received "Book of Wisdom" *2]
[Ding, received Gem *200]
[Ding, received precious material Mercury *100]
[Ding, received Tier Two Spiritual Gem *15]
[Ding, received Fine-level Weapon (Blue) Light Knight Sword *4]
[Ding, received Enhanced-level Weapon (Green) Venom Fang Spear *6]
[Ding, obtained building plan "Advanced Alchemy Workshop" *2]
Lin Rui’s eyes sparkled as the Silver Treasure Chest began yielding loot.
[Advanced Alchemy Workshop: Suitable for higher-level alchemy skills, this precise workshop provides a 3% chance for potion quality improvement when alchemy reaches level 20 (Not exceeding Fine-level)]
What’s 3%?, Lin Rui automatically converts it to 18%, meaning every five potions have a chance for a quality improvement.
Combined with Confused Little Auntie Shirley’s [Add a Little] trait, means each time a potion is made, there’s a chance for quality enhancement.
The downside is the potion quality can’t surpass Fine-level.
The issue is minor, Lin Rui casually handed it to Yuyu saying: "Go to the Goddess Pendulum, reinforce this blueprint to the fullest, then give it to Caroline to upgrade the territory’s alchemy workshop."
Yuyu lazily lay against the table, her fair chest pressed into enticing shapes. She didn’t care about the revealing sight, and asked: "You don’t mind me getting sunburned running back and forth with this fair skin? I think I should wait for you to finish the Silver Treasure Chests; I bet you’ll find other goodies."
She was right, with Lin Rui continuing treasure chest openings, another similar building plan soon emerged.
[Advanced Border Tavern]—besides providing a 2% chance for a dish quality boost while cooking, there’s a 1% chance of attracting special talents to the territory.
This special talent mainly refers to combat professionals with higher tiers than common folk, like mercenaries, rangers, wizards, demon hunters, and the like.
[Flaming Steel Furnace], placed in Blacksmith Shops, improves smiths’ production efficiency by 15%.
[Large Logging Camp], increasing logging efficiency by 50%!
Though Silver Treasure Chest quantities were limited, the emerging blueprints were few; these Lin Rui deemed necessary to reinforce completely were given to Yuyu.
Remaining prints slightly enhancing building effects were handed to Silver Moon for Caroline, for future improvements.
