As for the astral pirates, the Githyanki’s astral ship, the mind flayer’s mind ship, those super science fiction beings that can travel through astral planes and planes, they are outside the scope of tomorrow’s discussion for the time being.
The dwarves' forging technology is renowned throughout the world and supplies more than half of the world's metal minerals. Do I think they can hammer it out with hammer after hammer?
They are also immortals. Like the elves, they are not famous for their numbers. Many dwarf cities can contain thousands of people, but the weapons and equipment they produce cannot exceed that number.
The reason is that they built their city into a huge smelting furnace, either powered by geothermal lava, or assisted by bound fire elements.
All in all, most dwarf cities do not require coal mines or wood for smelting.
The dwarf city occupied by the roasted people in front of us is obviously not in that situation. It uses magma geothermal heat. As for whether the topography there is special and connects to the magma layer, or whether the dwarves use magic to do that, then
Just don't know.
Due to the existence of dwarves, magic, and multiple planes, the prices of gold and silver have shrunk. Gold and gems, which are very precious metals in the material plane, are not available everywhere in the outer plane, the earth elemental plane, so that's not the case.
Is it because those legendary mages rarely intervene in the fight for resources in the material plane? If they had time, they would have hired a group of earth elemental creatures to mine for themselves in the earth elemental plane.
What restricts the proliferation of precious metals in the material plane is either the expensive cost of plane transfer or the checks and balances of the elemental kings who intentionally suppress them.
The situation in the silver smelting production line becomes more and more bizarre the more you look at it.
The overall architectural style is not that rough, bulky, huge and practical style of the dwarves.
But there is a weird and weird tinkering style mixed with various kobolds in it.
The inconsistent patches and the newly added strange equipment made the entire silver refining production line extremely unstable, and some minor problems would occur from time to time.
The way those kobolds dealt with it was rough and simple. They took a big hammer and knocked it on Sandong first.
Strangely, more than 80% of the existing problems were fixed, and it started to run again.
Faced with that situation, you don't know whether to praise the things made by the dwarves for being durable enough?
I have to praise the kobolds for thinking about it. At that point, the kobolds and the goblins are sleeping together, standing side by side in the east of the sky.
The dwarf silver smelting production line definitely didn't produce much at its peak, and 80% of the output was not coarse silver bricks, but pure silver bricks.
As for those kobolds, who changed it seven times and eight times, the output was greatly reduced, and the capability was also weakened.
That's not because Gavin was guessing, but because at least half of the equipment there was not in use.
Then again, the kobolds used their own indigenous methods to drive the dwarves' ultra-modern magic factories, which is something that ordinary people can do.
With the young red dragon following him, the kobolds in the Flying Dragon's Lair neither attacked nor fled on a large scale, including the harpy kobolds who once served as the elite guard of the Flying Roc.
Gavin simply let them take him on a tour of the Eastern Dragon Nest.
The dragon's nest was obviously transformed from the dwarves' treasury. It was square and lined with rows of thick silver bricks the size of turning heads.
What is the concept of one hundred tons of rough silver bricks?
Even if the pure silver without impurities was completely integrated into a whole, it would still be nearly ten cubic meters.
The thick silver bricks mixed with impurities are naturally larger, enough to inlaid the entire floor and four sides of the silver warehouse with silver.
In comparison, the dragon bed made of piles of miscellaneous coins was a bit unsightly. Added up, one hundred thousand gold coins were quite insignificant, and not a single magic item was seen.
Thinking about the characteristics of Ji Peng's twisted magic, it is normal. Even if there are no magic items, if he is around him for a long time, it will be twisted and broken.
This is Ji Peng's normal treasure trove reserve.
Slaying dragons and robbing dragon nests is called the fastest way to make a fortune in Faerûn, and there is no reason why.
If you rob those merchants, there is a high risk that the goods will be worthless.
The dragon's nest will not be the case. As long as a dragon has a little reputation, there will definitely be a large amount of cash in his dragon's nest. There are no exceptions. If there are exceptions, if someone gets there first, it will be rejected.
You have not found the wrong place.
Calculating the gain from killing the Swift Roc, it turns out that it is not as bad as the disaster of the East Road, Thraxata.
Rough silver bricks worth nearly 300,000, assorted gold coins worth nearly 100,000, a reward of 100,000 from the racecourse owners, plus a silver mine with a monthly output value of 3,000 gold coins - pure profit without consumption, can they be self-sufficient?
If you are self-sufficient, you want to ensure that the kobolds there are safe and will not be harassed and occupied by other monsters or humans. With an annual income of 40,000 yuan, it is a very profitable business?
What's more, once it's in Gavin's lap, how can he allow it to maintain its original operating mode?
Even if there is no massive infrastructure construction like other places, at least it must be promoted to its maximum effectiveness.
Apart from anything else, the silver smelting production line has a lot to do.
Find a few dwarf experts. Even if there is no way to completely repair the silver smelting production line, even if it reaches 50%, 60% or even 70% or 80% of the peak level, with an annual income of hundreds of thousands, it should be easy.
In addition, Gavin highly doubted that the high yield of the garden farm mentioned by the Akkar harpy kobold was not a blessing from the gods like good weather, but a geothermal farm - the waste heat generated by silver refining.
, was released and fell to the ground, forming a farm with constant ground temperature throughout the year.
He asked the kobolds to take him to the ground to take a look. The environment there was much more unique than he expected.
That garden farm is not in the Krypt Garden Forest at all, but is located in the Sword Mountains, a valley surrounded by mountains. It is located directly in front of the dwarf castle. The most convenient road passes through the castle and is surrounded by mountains.
There are huge dwarf runes engraved on it, forming a protective shield similar to the Elf Mystery Lock.
Needless to say, it is difficult to find the valley from the direction of the Sword Mountain Range without the help of magic.
Surrounded by mountains, coupled with geothermal heat, the temperature there is like spring all year round, making it difficult not to be productive.
The only regret is that most of the area there has been abandoned. Trees, vines, and weeds are tangled together and are denser than ordinary ones. There is a small area near the passage that has been developed and planted with crops.
It's very clumsy, typical of rough planting and rough harvesting. Even so, more than two thousand monsters can be purchased and raised, which shows how suitable it is for planting.
What a waste! What a waste! What a waste!
It is so close to the Glory City, and growing food is not the most profitable business.
The most profitable thing is to grow off-season vegetables there. When the weather is cold and the ground freezes, all kinds of bright green vegetables are shipped there. Gavin can guarantee that they will be sold out on the spot. The value generated by that time will be,
Even several times that of silver mines.
Then you will definitely find a big treasure.
The silver mine or the garden farm, either one of them, is worthy of Gavin's investment in it, let alone two in one, which is certainly worth spending a lot of energy.
After understanding the situation inside and outside South Criptree, he returned to the meeting hall.
After temporarily driving away the harpy kobolds, Gavin turned to the young man Red Dragon and said, "During the time that Jie Dong comes here, he wants me to stay here and lead the kobolds to develop this place. What do I think?"
"Him?" The young Hong Long was stunned, obviously unable to react. After all, it was something that he never dared to dream about.
"What? Not happy?"
"I'm happy, very happy." The young red dragon's head is nodding like a chicken pecking at rice. What's running through his mind right now is Ji Peng's dragon's nest inlaid with silver bricks. No dragon can refuse to live in that kind of place.
Rolling around in the room to sleep.
I didn’t even think about it before, but now that dream is delivered to my door.
There is no such thing as a good thing, especially if Gavin appears. There must be a large amount of flutter bomb hidden inside.
After the surprise, the young red dragon asked cautiously, "Lord, what are the conditions?"
"He will transport away all the rough silver bricks and treasures there." Gavin had already had a profound understanding of the dragon's deep-rooted greed.
Because of the treasure, the undead ghost transformed by the young red dragon almost escaped control.
Even if I am a young red dragon and have perfect control, I cannot leave a pile of treasures to him to protect, otherwise who knows what unexpected things he will do?
The young red dragon's face showed disappointment and he could not hide his disappointment. At the same time, he breathed a long sigh of relief. In this way, he didn't have to worry about whether he could not control his greed and do stupid things.
The head said: "It is a matter of course."
"After I am stationed here, what do I think I should do?" Gavin's question was obviously part of a test. He wanted to see how much the young red dragon had learned during the period of following him.
The young red dragon replied without thinking: "As a low-key dragon, you will never appear in the human sight easily, let alone hunt in human horse farms."
"I'm going to learn what I'm learning and sell it now." Gavin couldn't help but laugh and scold him. Otherwise, the first order he gave Roderick after bringing him here would not require the help of those strong men from the Glory City.
Legs, there are several people in Amphel Village who can destroy his existence, "If he said that, how am I going to manage the kobolds outside?"
As for whether to arouse the enthusiasm of the young red dragon, Gavin added, "After I manage it for one month, one-tenth of the output of the silver mine will be mine."
As soon as he heard that there was money to be made, the young red dragon immediately became energetic.
At first glance, the salary does not seem to be much. It is only one hundred kilograms of coarse silver ingots per month, and it is equivalent to more than three hundred gold coins in East dollars.
According to his understanding of Gavin, he will never be satisfied with the current situation of the silver mine. When large-scale development begins there, it will be more than that.
good.
According to Gavin, he is going to give up the management of the silver mine to himself, so if he wants to test his management skills, he will be able to manage it well enough to retain it for a long time.
The young red dragon immediately began to rack his brains, recalling what he had seen and heard during his time in the Dragon Oak Territory. Based on his understanding of the cruel and cunning master in front of him, he replied: "He will go to the mountain range behind.
, gather more kobolds and increase the number of kobolds here."
He has fully experienced in the Dragon Oak Territory what it means to be powerful in numbers. Even small kobolds, if there are enough of them, can erupt with power that shocks even the ancient dragons. And in this regard, he
, whether it has innate advantages has been fully verified before in Shiqiao Hills.
"That counts as the first one." Gavin nodded lightly, affirming this, gathering the surrounding wild kobolds for his own use, and ensuring that the giant dragons burned the seeds. At the same time, he added, "But the stone bridge
I don't want to use Qiu Ling's personal move anymore. I'd like to send more nimble-minded kobold lobbyists to persuade the wild kobolds to join. If I encounter those stubborn tribes, I'll take action myself. Why not?
When you use your legs, you must make sure that you are sure to win. Give them a thunderous blow to scare the surroundings. Your whereabouts must not be exposed. Try not to be exposed. It is too close to human forces, and I don’t have the speed here.
Peng’s advantages.”
"No matter that the lord is thoughtful, he will definitely follow his instructions and keep a low profile as a dragon." The arrogant young red dragon learned humility from Gavin's lap. At least, he was humble enough in front of him.
Gavin's affirmation gave Rodrick full confidence, and he continued: "He hopes that the lord can deploy a hundred dragon-blooded kobolds from the territory, preferably red dragon-blooded kobolds."
"Oh? Tell me your specific thoughts." The smile in Gavin's eyes became even brighter. Did he originally hold the idea of recruiting a general from within, and temporarily held the young red dragon there until a suitable commander was found?
He changes away.
Unexpectedly, the wrong recipe was a bit beyond his expectation, and there was actually something in his stomach.
Come to think of it, Fang Fang is a giant dragon after all. Because Fang Fang is the notorious red dragon, he did not invest too many resources in cultivating him like he did to the young copper dragon Ivinsa.
But if you have both ears and eyes, you can learn a lot of new things.
"There are three reasons for doing this. First, if you are a red dragon-blooded kobold, you are naturally close to him. Living with him for a long time will further purify the red dragon blood in their bodies, and maybe awaken more powerful power.
Secondly, the silver smelting production line requires dealing with flames all year round. The dragon-blooded kobolds have a unique advantage in that aspect. The ordinary kobolds here have more or less tendencies in that regard, and they can blend in better.
Third, veterans can lead new recruits. A dragon-blooded kobold from the Dragon Oak Territory can supervise a dozen newly surrendered kobolds. However, due to the suppression of dragon blood, even if they enter a new ethnic group, dragon-blooded kobolds will not be born.
The one who is in office.”
The young red dragon is right. He is a pure giant dragon. He didn't care about the existence of kobolds before. Once he pays attention to them, it is easy to find the connection and compatibility between himself and them.
"Very good, very good, very good." Gavin couldn't help but nodded repeatedly. It can be said that the three young red dragons are all on point, taking the characteristics of the kobold and the concept of using the old to lead the new to the extreme.
, "Do you have any other ideas? Tell them together and he will help me refer to them."
Just based on what young Hong Long Yizai said, he is the only candidate to be stationed here.
But Gavin really wanted to dig deeper and see how far that young red dragon had grown? Is it worth his energy to cultivate?
As mentioned before, as his strength continues to increase, his employment philosophy is also constantly changing.
He previously paid too much attention to the natural alignment and somewhat ignored the acquired influence, especially the oppressive influence that directly controls the soul.
It is undeniable that the young red dragon is not a good bird. It was proved that when he entered the nest of the Flying Roc Dragon and ate two kobolds in a row to kill the chickens to scare the monkeys, it would be wrong if the young red copper dragon Ivinsa was there, let alone
If you can't do it, even such an idea won't come up, then there will be no real difference between the two.
Could it be that out of fear of his own wrath and punishment, Roderick rarely goes beyond what he prohibits?
If we ask him to abide by the laws and regulations he has formulated, then he will not be a legal citizen, and will his nature be lawful and good? What will he do if he is not chaotic and evil?
Compared with those who do not have, a large number of useful talents are the most important thing in Gaiwen.
"The Lord's cooperation is required for the reception from the east." Gavin forcibly suppressed the young red dragon's independent activity for more than half a year, and now it is fully activated.
"Tell me and listen."
"It's best that none of those harpy kobolds want to stay, and all of them are sent to the Dragon Oak Territory to receive a new education and baptism." The young red dragon talked like a boy, not like a giant dragon.
Military Advisor, "There are two reasons. The first is that those harpy kobolds are good. Their bloodline has been affected by the rapid roc, and it is difficult for them to be affected by his synchronization. Even if they are affected, they will become nondescript.
It's better to keep it as it is now, at least it's quite unique and can be used as an air force reconnaissance or air sentry.
Second, they must not be the middle and high-level managers here. Even if they sincerely join us and have no second thoughts, some things have been solidified. According to the lord, they have their own label attributes, and it is not easy to label them.
If they are led by Dragon Oak, they should be kicked out so that they can better complete the assimilation of this place."
The two reasons also include the characteristics of the kobolds themselves and the considerations of people's hearts. I can't say that they are comprehensive, but they are considered very comprehensive. Gavin nodded repeatedly.
The young red dragon took advantage of the excitement and continued: "That's the initial management model. He thinks that in the middle and late stages, the kobold elites there can be selected and sent to the Dragon Oak Territory for further edification, assimilation, or...
According to the ability, they will be transferred to more suitable personnel from the Dragon Oak Territory. Even if they return here for the first time, they will have a wrong sense of identification with the Dragon Oak Territory.
The kobold eggs there are best sent to the ovaries of the Dragon Oak mother tree to be hatched together, and then deployed collectively.
At that time, even if there are geographical differences, both sides will come from the same nest and have a stronger sense of mutual identity."
Rodrick's suggestions were not from his own perspective, but from the perspective of the entire Dragon Oak Territory.
As for the suggestion he made, had he already developed a sense of identity with the Dragon Oak Territory, like those kobolds, who were obsessed with rejecting that large group?
If not, he will know whether to please Gavin and win more impression points.
No matter which point he started from, Gavin couldn't help but look up at the red dragon, because it meant that no matter whether he was sincere or not, he had a good sense of proportion and knew what he wanted most, so he asked for it.
Whether he can make a choice that is beneficial to himself and his territory, there is no need to delve into other matters.
