Chapter 315: The trade route is cut off

PS: I'm sorry, it's raining and the power is out, I can't help it, today the third watch is made up, and the first one is coming.

Alicia and Nicole complained about Luo Heng because the diamond dragon was not easy to provoke, but in fact, the dragon was not easy to provoke.

After Luo Heng came out, he saw that the diamond dragon had stopped in the open space in front of the temple, the diamond dragon looked at the majestic temple, and said: "Yes, the power above is stronger than that of the orcs, dwarf, how did you deceive the god of war." ”

Luo Heng opened his mouth and said: "You are slandering me, I don't need your goods anymore, now I want you to apologize, otherwise I will expel you." ”

"Giggles, dwarves, are you sure you can banish me?" the diamond dragon chuckled, making his hair stand on end.

"I can give the gold I originally gave you to ...... Grice. Luo Heng said.

Then he paused and continued: "He's his own anyway. ”

Hearing Luo Heng's words, Grice's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Is it two million gold coins?"

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I was wrong, these are for you, hurry up and get that thing out. "Ulad transforms into a human form, but it's ugly, and it's better to wrap it in animal skins.

With a wave of his hand, a large number of things were thrown out of the space.

"Give money, it's half of half. Ulad spoke.

Luo Heng also waved his hand, and then a large pile of gold coins were thrown in front of this Urad.

"500,000 gold coins, count them yourself. Luo Heng said.

When Ulad saw this, he suddenly turned into a diamond dragon, like a huge dinosaur, with scales all over his body that kind of gray, opened his mouth, and swallowed the gold coins in one fell swoop.

"Dwarves, I'll count. Then Ulad flew up at once, shouting as she flew away.

Luo Heng looked at Grice and asked, "This guy is afraid of you?"

"The diamond dragon can't beat our blue dragon, freeze him into a big ice block, and then grab it and throw it from a high place, besides, this guy is afraid of water and can't swim. Grice began.

Luo Heng silently wrote down, the diamond dragon is afraid of water, tsk!

"Come and see, what is this?" exclaimed Nicole.

Ulad brought a lot of things, some of them were corpses, all of them were some strange magical beasts, there were blue ice bears, and brown wolves, these wolves were large, but they were all dead, and there was a kind of blood-red scaled rat.

The corpse of the demonic beast, and then there are the eggs of the demonic beasts, as soon as you look at the size, you can know that they are these demonic beasts, as well as various plants that have been uprooted, and a guy like a stone, Luo Heng looked at it and was happy, this is an elemental creature, it should be a rock man.

Luo Heng himself also has a rock man demon pet, but it doesn't feel very useful, and he doesn't grow much.

And sometimes curled up together, it is just a stone, and all kinds of ores are eaten, but fortunately, there are a lot of ore veins under the snow mountain on Luo Heng's side.

This rock man's eyes are one-eyed, and his height is only more than one meter, Luo Hengke didn't underestimate this rock man, and asked, "Which of you wants this rock man to be a demon pet?"

"I ....... A person opened his mouth and replied, and Luo Heng saw that it was Xue Li.

Nicole can't look down on it, Nicole has a wurm pet.

As soon as Luo Heng waved his hand, Xue Li took out two hundred gold coins and gave them to Grace, and Grace grabbed Xue Li in a hurry.

Under the threat of Grice, the rock man had to sign a pact with Shirley.

"Nicole, these things are all yours, this is to prepare for the establishment of the magic academy in the future, in addition, you can recruit magicians, I have a lot of things here. Luo Heng said.

When Nicole heard this, she almost fainted with happiness, the Academy of Magic, and it will be under her own jurisdiction in the future?

"Alright, alright, Grice, come here. Nicole shouted, pulling out a bag of gold coins.

"Lady Nicole, beautiful Lady Nicole, the villain is here. Grice ran over flatteringly.

Grice wants money, but as long as he gives money, Grice is still very attentive to things.

Nicole got busy, Nicole is a magician with an orthodox education, although she is not as good as a professional appraiser, but she still knows a lot about these things, Shirley, as a magician in the dukedom, of course, has to participate, and there are several low-level magicians recruited in the dukedom.

Alicia asked, "This diamond dragon is so easy to talk about?"

"It's very difficult, how are the preparations for the spring festival on our side?" Luo Heng asked.

"It's not going well, we don't lack meat, but the ale is estimated to be in short supply, and the cauldron may be a little small, but there is not a single iron ingot delivered from the Dukedom. Alicia spoke.

When Luo Heng heard this, he said, "I'll go and see what's going on." ”

Iron ingots Luo Heng has always imported, although Luo Heng can build his own smelting facilities, but the dwarf kingdom has a lot of inventory, and merchants come here to sell things, and then buy things back, and they don't go back and forth, which can increase the profit margin.

Once the profit goes up, then the motivation of the businessman will also be very high.

Of course, Luo Heng is also thinking about the dwarf kingdom, but the orcs are very short of metal daily necessities, and it can be said that the gap is very high.

"Be careful, I guess someone is jealous of our income. Alicia spoke.

When Luo Heng heard this, he nodded, in fact, there were many people with red eyes.

"I'll ask first, but it's really not good, so we'll start smelting ourselves. "Luo Heng also has a mine here, and those orc captives are in the mine.

These ores are crushed, and then selected, and put them over there, mining machinery, in fact, is a big knowledge, Luo Heng has no energy to do that for the time being, plus he uses prisoners of war, so it is just a general tool.

Compared with coal mines, iron ore mines are much less dangerous, mainly permeable, and gas and the like are relatively rare.

Luo Heng hurriedly returned to the dukedom and passed the news to the dwarf king through the branch of the Wizards' Union.

The dwarf king didn't know how long it would take to reply to the letter, Luo Heng was not in a hurry, he had reserves, and Luo Heng had a plan for these things.

Carefully look at the map of the dukedom, build a smelting workshop, what you need is convenient transportation, and what you need is fuel, ore, etc. are more suitable locations, there are ores, no fuel, that is also in vain, there are ores, fuel, but it is not convenient to transport, that is not good.

"Sir, Viscount William has been here several times and wants to see you. A maid walked in and spoke.

"Well, I'll invite William to afternoon tea. Luo Heng snorted and spoke.

William is Baron William across the Dukedom, and due to the skyrocketing number of people in the realm and the sharp rise in taxes, William was made a viscount last year.

Of course, the caravan did not have much tax, because Luo Heng took the lead and let William and other nobles along the road not collect taxes, although the taxes were less, but there were still tolls, after all, the cleanliness of the road, road repair, etc.

In addition, there were various inns and taverns along this trade route, and since there was no tax, many small merchants also joined in.

The establishment of taverns and inns, then the surrounding agricultural products will naturally not be sold, and winemaking is a very food-consuming industry, but as long as it can be sold, it is a good thing.

"Hello, Lord Cheney. Viscount William picked up Luo Heng and saluted.

"William, you're welcome, come and sit down. Luo Heng stood up and said.

William came over and sat down, and then spoke: "Your Excellency the Duke, in the Pothos Forest, there has been a batch of grabs recently, and the trade routes have been cut off, does the Duke know?"
