Chapter 139 Little Jones' Gratitude(1/2)

While the Dawn Sect is making progress, the other side is not idle either.

The blacksmith shop also took great pains to make mining tools for the Cyclops.

With the help of hundreds of vampire mages, nearly 2,000 pieces of iron tools were re-cast, and 5 sets of mining tools suitable for the Cyclops were barely cast.

The huge pickaxe was pressed on the ground like an engineering hammer, with a six- or seven-blade long piece of wood that could be hugged by a person as the handle.

The most eye-catching thing is the giant hammer, which is placed on the ground and directly presses cracks into the bluestone floor.

If it were not in the hands of the Cyclops, there would be no problem for the army to attack the city wall with this kind of thing.

When Li De saw this scene, the corner of his mouth twitched fiercely, and he looked at Harrison with a meaningful look.

If he really listened to Harrison's suggestion and put Cyclops in the army, just the armor needed to make these big guys would kill him.

It consumes too much material.

However, these few are barely enough now. We will wait until the first batch of ores are mined before casting new ones. It won't be long before all the Cyclops can be equipped with them.

A bit of excitement flashed in Corso's eyes and he stepped forward. The ground he stepped on vibrated slightly with his huge body. He reached out and picked up the huge hammer.

Huhuhu~

The hammer weighing a full eight hundred pounds was as light as a dagger in the hands of this cyclops lord.

"Master, it's too light."

Nugget on the side felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. As a forger with dwarf blood, it was really embarrassing for him to have the tools he made criticized.

However, he has tried his best to create these tools. No matter how skilled the forger is, it is impossible to forge artifacts without materials.

"Okay, let's make do with it. Once you mine the ore, I'll ask them to make you a heavier and better weapon as soon as possible.

I have great faith in Mr. Nuggets’ skills.”

Hearing this, Nugget's face showed deep gratitude, "Lord Cachar, it is Nugget's honor to serve you. Your kindness is enough to be praised by the God of Forging."

Corso scratched his head, waved the hammer in his hand casually, and nodded angrily.

"Yes, Master,"

Although this weapon is very light, at least it is still made of iron, which is much better than his previous wooden mace.

"Harrison, take the vampires here with Corso and the other Cyclops to the Valley of the Giants.

Start mining ores with the fastest speed in the world. I want to prepare the agricultural tools before the end of the winter moon."

The winter moon has passed for almost a month now.

If there is a lack of necessary farming tools next spring, the impact will be huge.

In Li De's plan, Daybreak City will mainly develop agriculture next year.

Agriculture is the foundation of everything. If there is no food and there is not enough food to eat, there is no development.

Only when agriculture is stabilized can the superstructure develop.

Therefore, Li De will not relax at all regarding the key points in his plan.

"Yes, patriarch"

Harrison immediately began making arrangements after receiving the order.

Li De scanned the crowd with his peripheral vision, and a short figure appeared in his eyes, waving his hand with a smile on his face.

"Jones"

When Li De called him, Jones Jr. came forward with a bit of surprise.

"Good day, Lord Cachar"

Jones, who had put on a new cotton coat, held his chest and bowed to Li De like an adult.

Li De patted the prospector apprentice's small shoulder.

He praised with satisfaction.

"You did a great job this time, and you made great contributions to the City of Dawn.

I will personally reward you with 10 points, and your salary will be increased to 1 gold puke every month from now on." Looking at Jones with a surprised expression, he smiled slightly.

"The development of Dawn City cannot be separated from everyone's efforts. You are still young, and only when you are young will you have greater potential.

Work hard and the future will be yours."

Jones' face flushed with excitement, and his young heart was filled with blood at this moment.

"Lord Cachar, Jones is willing to sacrifice his life for you!"

After speaking, he knelt down on one knee in front of Li De, imitating the way the knights he had seen salute to the nobles.

Li De laughed and helped the little guy up.

"Very good, I hope you can make more contributions to the City of Dawn.

Is there anything else you need from me to reward you?"

Jones' face, which was flushed with excitement, showed a bit of trepidation. He turned his head and glanced at the vampire Henner of the prospecting team. When he saw the other person smiled and nodded, he said with a bit of impatient mood.

"Lord Cachar, I would like Uncle Sam to become an employee of City Hall"

"Uncle Sam?"

"Uncle Sam is the neighbor who took me to escape from the village. He is the person closest to me. He has always hoped to get a stable job."

Seeing Jones explain hurriedly, Li De nodded at him, "Yes, he is a good young man who knows how to repay his kindness. I will arrange this matter." After saying that, he turned to look at Henner.

"Henna, take Jones with you and arrange him in the logistics team."

"Yes, Your Majesty the First Ancestor"

Henner saluted at Jones' excited expression.

"You are so great, Lord Cachar, thank you for your kindness and generosity"

Li De felt very comfortable seeing the admiration in Jones's eyes.

"Jones, you deserve all this. In Dawn City, hard work will be rewarded. Dawn City will not ignore any hard-working resident."

The words were spoken loudly, and the eyes of the blacksmiths and residents passing by who were watching the excitement were deeply moved.

How lucky they are to have such a great city lord.

"Although we have now explored an iron mine, this matter cannot stop here. In the future, we will have to work hard for you to continue to help Dawn City find ore veins.

Jones, the future mines of Dawn City are all in your hands."

Li De patted Jones's shoulder earnestly, and the boy suddenly felt a surge of recognition and responsibility, and was greatly encouraged.

It's great to be treated like this by the Lord of Cachar City.

Jones was filled with pride and pride.

"Lord Cachar, Jones will not let you down."

After Li De left the blacksmith shop, the incident immediately spread throughout the City of Dawn.

Everyone was amazed by Li De's actions.

In the next few days, the number of people going to Daybreak Church will increase exponentially. Who would not feel honored to have such a city lord.

After Jones got Li De's promise, he couldn't wait to return to his residence with Henner.

A two-story building.

Originally there were other people living here with Jones, but with the discovery of iron ore, this small building now has no other outsiders except Sam, the resident who fled with Jones.

For Jones' safety, Harrison even placed a fixed sentry not far from this small building.

Once there is danger, the guards will immediately protect the sole prospector of Dawn City.

Tap tap tap~

Jones ran up to the second floor with eager excitement.

Bang~

Open the door on the right and enter the house.

The house is very tidy, and the smell of burning wood is strong and gives off a warm atmosphere.

"Uncle Sam, I'm back~"

Sam, who was warming himself by the fireplace, was frightened by the huge movement, turned his head and glanced at Jones, saying angrily.

"You bastard, come over here and warm yourself by the fire. Why are you yelling?!"

Jones patted the snowflakes on his body, walked up to Sam with a thick smile, and spoke without sitting down.

"Uncle Sam, what good news do you think I have today?"

Sam is an ordinary farmer in his forties, with a tall, aquiline nose that is very conspicuous, a short stature, and very dark skin.

He had never married a wife in his life, and the moment he brought Jones out, he regarded this clever little guy as his own son.
