The boat was walking on the Tiema River, and from time to time we could see three-masted cargo ships or five-masted cargo ships. These ships had deep drafts, so we knew that the goods carried on them were very heavy.
Now we are not far from the dock at Dwarf Iron Mountain. I believe that these ships are trading ships with the dwarves, and many of the items on their ships are iron tools.
When people mention the iron tools of the dwarves, the first thing they think of is weapons. In fact, there are many kinds of iron tools of the dwarves. Among all kinds of daily necessities, the dwarves can almost make them wherever iron tools are available.
And the dwarves don't just make ironware. They can make all metal things, including gold and silverware. These things are very famous on the mainland, but the most famous thing is their ironware.
The weapons produced by the dwarves are simple and unpretentious, while the gold, silver and other precious metals they produce are so gorgeous that they can be called works of art. The elves, who are famous for their works of art, are not as good as the dwarves in this aspect. They seem to have an innate intuition about metals, a terrifying intuition.
Of course, when the dwarves dug out several iron mountains, they also understood that even if the iron mountains are large, they will be dug out one day, so they are now starting to take the recycling route. Do you want to follow them? When ironware is traded, sometimes some scrap metal has to be exchanged.
So the ships that go to the Dwarf Iron Mountain or the ships that come out of the Dwarf Iron Mountain may have metal.
Zhao Hai also knows about this rule of the dwarves, but the dwarves do not have to let you exchange metals for them to trade with them. There are already some businessmen who specialize in metal recycling business with the dwarves. Well, it can be said that the development of the dwarves here is much better than that of the orcs.
The Taoyuan slowly stopped at the dwarf pier. This pier was very large and had many ships. However, Zhao Hai took a look and found that almost all of the ships parked under the pier were ships belonging to the nobles of the Pagoda Empire. Not available on ships from other countries.
But Zhao Hai is now looking at a group of people on the pier curiously. This group of people seems to be the managers of the pier. These people are not tall, the tallest is only about 1.5 meters, and the short one is only 1.3 meters. They were very strong, wearing iron armor, and each of them carried a hammer on his back.
This hammer is not the kind of sledgehammer used for fighting in ancient Chinese weapons that Zhao Hai had in mind. This hammer looks more like a hammer for blacksmithing, but it is very big. Each hammer looks like a hammer. It weighs dozens of kilograms.
The iron armor worn by these dwarves, coupled with the hammer, each of them carries a weight of at least about a hundred kilograms, but looking at their nonchalant look, you can tell how powerful they are.
This is the first time Zhao Hai has seen dwarves. These dwarves all have brown hair, big beards, and their faces are red, as if they have been drunk.
After the boat stopped, Zhao Hai and Juno got off the boat, and immediately two dwarves came over. The two dwarves walked up to Zhao Hai's Juno, bowed slightly to them and said: "
Are you two here to do business?"
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said: "Exactly, I am Zhao Hai from the Buda family. This time I came here specifically to do business with my dwarf friends. This is my first time here. The person next to me is the head of the Hurricane family."
As soon as the dwarf heard Zhao Hai say that the man next to him was the head of the Hurricane family, his expression immediately changed, and he bowed respectfully to Juno and said: "It turns out that the head of Juno has arrived. I'm sorry.
please!"
They didn't seem to notice Zhao Hai's self-introduction, and completely ignored him. Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment, and then laughed bitterly.
The Buda family is now also a famous big family on the mainland, but these dwarves treat him like this. There are only two possibilities. One is that these dwarves have never heard of Zhao Hai's name, and the other is that they are
I don’t like Zhao Hai.
Juno glanced at the dwarf and said calmly: "This Mr. Zhao Hai is the head of the Buda family and my friend."
It was a very ordinary sentence, but the dwarf was stunned for a moment, and then turned to look at Zhao Hai, but his eyes were not very friendly. He looked at Zhao Hai and said: "The Buda family? They are the Buda family of the Rosen Empire.
Da family?”
Zhao Hai nodded and said: "Exactly, is there any problem?"
The dwarf looked at Zhao Hai and said: "We haven't had a businessman from the Rosen Empire here for a long time. Last time, the businessman from the Rosen Empire bought us some moldy bamboo rice."
When Zhao Hai heard what the dwarf said, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "Really? Is he from the Buda family?"
The dwarf didn't expect Zhao Hai to ask this, but he also understood what Zhao Hai meant. He suddenly laughed and said: "Okay, I like people like you, Zhao Hai family leader, please!"
Juno nodded approvingly at the side. If Zhao Hai had just defended the merchants of the Rosen Empire, those dwarves might do business. However, Zhao Hai's rhetorical question made those dwarves very happy.
Zhao Hai has discovered that these dwarves are different from the orcs. The orcs are direct, but they seem to be not as smart as the dwarves. The dwarves are also direct, but they may have more contact with the human race and are smarter.
Zhao Hai and the others followed the two dwarves out of the pier. The two dwarves immediately called a car. The car was very wide, but Zhao Hai had never seen the monster pulling the car. It was a long car.
There are monsters like pangolins, but their size is not smaller than a horse at all, and they can almost catch up with a bull.
After the two dwarves invited Zhao Hai and the others to get on the car, they specially hired two people to help Zhao Hai and the others set up the car. They also told the person who was setting up the car their identities. Obviously, they were more interested in Juno.
Be respectful.
Zhao Hai looked at them and just smiled slightly without saying anything. However, he could tell from the expressions of these dwarves that Juno had a high status in the hearts of the dwarves.
Juno saw Zhao Hai noticing the monsters picking up the car, and he smiled and said: "These monsters are called armored beasts. They are a kind of monster unique to the dwarves and are their best partners. These monsters are good at digging and digging.
They can open mountains, and after training, they can also help the dwarves find iron ore. They are the best assistants of the dwarfs. This kind of monster is also very strange. They cannot be trained by humans or any other race.
, the only ones who can train them are the dwarves, so this kind of magical beast is also considered by the dwarves to be a gift given to them by the God of Craftsman."
Zhao Hai nodded. He no longer thinks this is nonsense. There are too many strange things happening in Ark Continent. Maybe there is really a god controlling all of this.
The armored beast walked very steadily, and the speed was not slow. Soon Zhao Hai and the others saw the mountains in the distance. This mountain was different from the mountains in the Hurricane Family. The mountains in the Hurricane Family all had bamboo or rice growing on them.
Oil fruit trees, but growing on the mountains here is a tree that Zhao Hai has never seen before.
This kind of tree grows very strangely. The trunk is very straight and iron-black, but it is not thick. It is only about the thickness of a bowl. On the top of the tree, there are some branches, each branch is five to six times longer.
There are more than ten leaves growing on each branch. Those leaves are very big. Each leaf is more than one meter long and very thin. It looks like a short gun. It is green and the whole tree is
The human feeling is very heavy and very sharp.
It's really strange that a tree can give people a sharp feeling. Juno then said: "This kind of tree is called the iron gun tree. Its branches, leaves, and trunks can all be made."
The gun shaft made of tree trunks is of the best quality, but it is also the heaviest. It is heavier than ordinary fine steel gun shafts, but it is very tough and is also a specialty of the Dwarf Iron Mountain."
Zhao Hai nodded, but he was very happy in his heart. He felt that he really did not come here in vain this time. There are really many unique things in the dwarf tribe. Even if the space cannot be upgraded, he can still do it in his hands.
There are a few more nice things.
Now Zhao Hai is even more looking forward to the Elf Forest. The dwarves are famous for their iron tools. They have so many unique things here, and the Elf Forest is famous for all kinds of strange plants. So what will they do there?
How many unique things are there? This is really exciting.
This Dwarf Iron Mountain is very high, not much taller than Iron Huan Mountain. There is a cave on this mountain. This cave is very huge. The cave entrance alone is not smaller than the Eagle King Dong.
The armored beast's car quickly entered the cave. As soon as he entered the cave, Zhao Hai was stunned. The scene in this cave was really too big. Judging from the scale of this cave, it was bigger than that of Shankou Lake.
The cave is much larger.
But there is no water in this cave. On the contrary, this cave looks like a huge arsenal. There are blacksmith furnaces everywhere, and some shirtless dwarves are wielding armor and weapons there.
The cave is full of tinkling sounds, so noisy that even if you want to talk to the people sitting next to you, you have to shout.
Piles of various weapons and various armors can be seen everywhere in the mountain cave. There are many dwarves loading cars there, but not a single human businessman is seen.
Zhao Hai was most afraid of such a loud sound. He felt that his head was about to explode. Fortunately, the armored beast's car came out of the cave soon, and the world suddenly became quiet.
Zhao Hai let out a long breath and said: "It's too scary. If I stay in that cave for a day, I will be shocked to death. How can those dwarves endure it?"
Juno smiled and said: "They don't have to suffer. Haven't you noticed that every dwarf wears earplugs so that they can't hear those sounds? In that cave, the dwarves don't communicate through sounds."
It's fluid, they all use gestures or write words."
Zhao Hai nodded and said: "So that's the case, but it's strange, why didn't I see a human businessman there?"
Juno smiled and said: "There are several small caves in that mountain cave. They are places where humans conduct transactions with human merchants. They are very sober there. Human merchants have completed their transactions with the dwarves.
After that, they will wait in the cave until the dwarves have loaded the goods for them, and then they will leave the cave. Otherwise, if they stay in the cave for a long time, they will go crazy.
."
Zhao Hai nodded and looked around. Now they had come out of an exit on the back of the cave. What appeared in front of Zhao Hai were endless mountains. There were iron spear trees growing on these mountains. They looked like
It's like there is no end.
Zhao Hai knew that this was the Dwarf Iron Mountain, the real Dwarf Iron Mountain. The area of the Dwarf Iron Mountain was very large, no smaller than the Orc Grassland.
Juno looked at the endless mountains and said: "Everyone knows that this is the Dwarf Iron Mountain, but there are not many humans who can actually walk here from that cave. The Dwarf Iron Mountain only accepts friends, so
They think that people who are not friends can only enter the cave just now."
Zhao Hai nodded and said: "Thanks to Grandpa Juno this time, otherwise, we would not have been able to come here."
Juno smiled slightly and said: "Okay, don't be polite to me if you don't want me. I brought you here because I saw that your son is not the kind of unscrupulous businessman. Otherwise, you think I will bring you here personally."
Are you coming? If you are really that kind of unscrupulous businessman, let alone you who saved Chris, even if you saved our entire Hurricane family, I would not have brought you here. I am friends with the dwarves.
, I can’t do anything to be sorry for my friends.”
Zhao Hai nodded, Laura and the others did not speak, just looked at the scenery outside quietly. Juno only brought a few people from the family this time, and those people are now on the carriage behind,
Also riding with them were Xu Wanying and Shunyi.
Soon, the armored beast's car entered the second cave. This cave was also very large. There were many dwarves busy there, but there were not many weapons visible here. Most of them were iron ore.
stone.
The Iron Mountain Beast's car slowly walked towards the mountain cave. Zhao Hai felt that the further into the mountain cave, the lower the terrain seemed to be, as if there was a gentle slope.
After a while, the armored beast's car stopped. Juno turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Get out of the car. You'll have to take a boat as you walk in." Zhao Hai responded and followed Laura and the others out of the car.
When he got outside, Zhao Hai looked around and saw that this was a large cave. There were many dwarves in the cave, and they were all driving the armored beast's cart, which was loaded with iron ore.
On one side of the mountain, there is a pier. There are several small boats parked at the pier. These boats are not big and can only seat a dozen people at most.
The dwarf who was driving the car also got off the car, walked to Juno, bowed to Juno and said: "Mr. Juno, please come with me." Juno nodded and led Zhao Hai and the others to follow the man.
The dwarf walked towards the dock.
There are several small boats parked at the pier. Some of the small boats are loaded with iron ore, while others have nothing on them, and there are some seats on them for people to sit on.
