Seeing Lu Yuan move a large amount of materials out of the trading market, Ju Shou was a little surprised.
"Nothing, I just got a few more formulas and a construction drawing, and purchased some materials."
Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Ju Shou was also a little stunned.
It is extremely difficult for other lords to obtain some formula drawings.
But in my master's place, it is a relaxed and free-spirited life. The formula seems to be free of charge and can be taken back batch by batch.
Before a building is completed, a new one is built.
"Ahem, my lord, the barracks and several other buildings have been upgraded and have met the upgrade conditions of the Lord's Hall. Do you want to upgrade immediately?" Jushou asked.
Upgrading to a level 4 territory requires, in addition to the previous materials, 10 level 3 buildings in the territory.
Lu Yuan reminded Jushou before he asked him to upgrade.
He checked the materials in stock. He had exploited the lords of the Extreme Fire Alliance in the past few days. The gap in materials was not big. It would be enough to purchase some more stones.
100,000 soul crystals was a big problem for him before, but now that he has a huge amount of money, it is naturally not a problem.
Lu Yuan passed by the barracks and checked its information.
【Barracks】
[Level: lv3]
[Units that can be recruited: Spearmen (★★), Sword and Shield Soldiers (★★), Light Cavalry (★★★). 】
[Attributes: The time required to recruit troops is reduced by 10%, and the materials are reduced by 10%]
[Description: The basic building of the human race, which can recruit melee troops. 】
Upgrading to level three adds an additional unit, light cavalry.
However, this unit is equipped with horses, which requires stables.
Moreover, the attributes of ordinary light cavalry are not as good as those of Wolf Knights, which makes them useless to Lu Yuan.
As for the advanced military units, those that are currently available and available seem to be relatively common.
Lu Yuan then gave up the idea of forming light cavalry.
The archer camp next to it was upgraded to level three and a long archer was added, and Lu Yuan had no intention of recruiting one.
Blazing Archers and Night Elf Rangers are currently the most suitable units for him.
Stroll to the Lord's Hall.
[Whether to upgrade the territory, upgrade requirements: wood: 20,000, stone: 50,000, iron ore: 20,000, soul crystal: 100,000, there are 10 level 3 buildings in the territory. The upgrade time is fifteen days.]
This time the upgrade took longer, and Lu Yuan also sighed.
But after all, it was necessary to upgrade. Lu Yuan did not hesitate and directly chose to upgrade. The territory hall was once again surrounded by white light.
And looking at the somewhat shriveled wallet, it felt even more difficult.
I spent more than 300,000 yuan to purchase materials before, plus 100,000 yuan for upgrading the territory, and now I only have more than 800,000 soul crystals left.
Lu Yuan came to the black iron castle's forging workshop again.
"Lord, according to your request, I have been making the Elf Ballista these days, but this thing is too difficult, and only my assistant Wycliffe can help, so I haven't made the second one yet.
." Dwarf blacksmith Cooper scratched his head and said.
"Well, this Elven Ballista is more important. I hope you can let more people learn this drawing." Lu Yuan said.
In Lu Yuan's plan, the Elven Ballista will serve as an important tool for defending the city. It will play an important role in the attack against the demonic tide. Naturally, the more the better.
"As you command, I will select some smarter guys to train." Cooper said very seriously.
"Very good, how is the situation in the blacksmith's workshop now?" Lu Yuan asked.
"Thanks to the lord, those guys are working very hard. They are much more skilled than when they first came here, and their forging speed is also much faster. Now they can forge 15 sets of black iron suits and 300 pieces of iron armor in a day. Everyone.
I'm grateful for the Lord's kindness!" A stiff smile appeared on Cooper's face.
It has to be said that the race of dwarves is really not suitable for flattery.
"Okay, Cooper, I understand. You go about your business first." Lu Yuan interrupted his nonsense with some helplessness.
Cooper also showed an expression of relief and secretly glanced at the orc in the corner.
Lu Yuan naturally noticed his little move, but didn't pay attention to it. He didn't take such little thoughts to heart either.
He inspected the blacksmith workshop, and most of them were Dark Iron dwarves.
These are all transformed from dwarven gladiators.
Hundreds of blacksmiths crowded into the forging workshop, working enthusiastically, and seemed to work even harder because of his arrival.
The sound of the bellows beating was mixed with the intensive sound of gold and iron clashing, creating a busy scene.
The entire workshop is clearly divided into several areas.
Blacksmiths in a large area are forging black iron suits.
Their division of labor is different, some specialize in making hand guards, and some only make breastplates. It is because of this division of labor that new blacksmiths can master this craft as quickly as possible.
There is also an area where armor pieces are being built.
The craftsmanship of armor pieces is very simple. A skilled hand can make at least ten armor pieces per hour.
Now it has become another specialty of Jueyun collar besides the black iron suit.
The forging work of Serpent Sting and Screaming Fire has been temporarily stopped, simply because Blazing Archer and Poison Blade Assassin have no plans to continue recruiting for the time being.
But what troubles Lu Yuan is that the number of blacksmiths in the forging workshop has now reached the upper limit of 100.
If you want to continue to expand, you can only upgrade the forging workshop.
And this gave rise to new problems.
Black Iron Castle is currently regarded as a branch city of Jueyun Territory.
Previously, the entire secret realm was facing collapse, and the Lord's Hall of Black Iron Castle was severely damaged. Only the forge workshop was still intact.
Now if you want to upgrade the forge, you must upgrade the Lord's Hall of Black Iron Castle.
However, as the main city of Jueyun Territory, its level is not as good as that of Black Iron Castle, so it is naturally impossible to upgrade Black Iron Castle.
Not to mention that the Lord's Hall of Black Iron Castle still needs to be repaired.
This goal cannot be achieved in a short time.
But as a result, some blacksmiths became idle.
The blacksmith shop of the Jueyun Territory can make some arrangements, but without the formula it can only allow them to forge some ordinary equipment and gain some experience, which is a bit of a waste.
But at this time, Lu Yuan didn't have any good ideas.
We can only arrange it this way first.
But this is also him. If other lords want a special talent, they would just ask their grandfather to tell their grandma, especially an important military talent like a blacksmith.
But he was worried because he couldn't accommodate the blacksmith!
