The dwarves are optimistic and bold by nature, talking, laughing, singing, dancing, and making a fuss in the cave, seeing that they are only about one meter and a half meters tall, some of them have black hair, black beards, some have brown hair and beards, and some are fiery red and golden.

The dwarves can easily identify iron ore and extract pig iron from it, and they are good at smelting iron and forging weapons, which is a strength they have inherited, but the weapons they carry are a little rudimentary and do not look like weapons forging experts.

As time passed little by little, the food on the fire was cooked, and Stern began to beckon the dwarves to come over for dinner.

"The elderly, women, and children eat first, and the others wait for the next pot to eat. Stern opened his voice and spoke loudly to the dwarves.

All the dwarves were scored in three batches in an orderly manner under Goldbeard's arrangement. The old women, and the children took the lead in eating around the fire with chopsticks, and Stern was afraid that the bones would get stuck in his throat, so he specially told them to be careful.

After half an hour, the first 30 of them had eaten all the dinner, and the old man and the child had a relatively small appetite, so they were basically full at the end of the meal.

Stern set up two more pots of fish and a leg of a pig, and set them on fire, and about an hour later fifteen adult dwarves began to sit around the fire and eat dinner.

Stern had dinner with the third group of dwarves, and Goldbeard was among them, and Goldbeard also took a bottle of fruit wine specially brewed by their dwarves for Stern to drink.

The dinner was very lively, and Stern and the dwarves talked and laughed very well, completely devoid of the tension of the afternoon when they first met.

The sudden uninvited guest made Stern feel very happy, from now on he finally has someone around him who can communicate with each other in the same language, although it is a dwarf, but Stern from the earth will not look down on them at all, in his eyes everyone is equal.

"At the beginning, there were more than 70 of us, and we encountered a cold wave on the road, and many emaciated people, because they could not withstand this demonic cold, all froze to death on the way. As he spoke, Goldbeard choked up sadly, and the faces of the others on the side also showed a sad look.

"Don't be sad anymore, now that everything has happened, it's irreparable, and now that the rest of the people have found a warm place to live, and won't be attacked by the cold anymore, isn't it something to be thankful for? Stern patted Goldbeard's shoulder and said comfortingly.

"Honorable Excellency, thank you for being able to take us in today and give us so much delicious food, this is a little bit of our heart, please take it. After saying that, Goldbeard took out a small burlap bag from the package, held it in both hands and handed it to Sturt.

Stern looked at the heavy bag of things, it should not be ordinary items, he took the bag and opened the mouth of the bag to take a look, there were thousands of gold coins in it, and even five or six amethysts, you must know that amethyst is a very scarce spar, a piece of amethyst size can be exchanged for a thousand gold coins, this small burlap bag is actually worth five or six thousand gold coins, it is estimated that this is all the valuable things of this dwarf tribe.

Stern hurriedly returned the burlap bag to Goldbeard, and said to him solemnly: "I can't ask for such a valuable thing uncle, I should help you, and anyone will help in such a thing." Goldbeard pushed the sack toward Stern again, and said firmly: "We have been on this island for hundreds of years, and these gold coins are of no use to us, and I am sure that you will be able to return to your country, and it will definitely come in handy when the time comes, so don't refuse." Seeing that Goldbeard was determined to give him the gold coins, Stern had no choice but to accept it cheekily, in fact, Stern had already smiled in his heart at this time, so many gold coins are not easy to earn, and the dwarves can't use them anyway.

After dinner, all the dwarves began to go back to sleep with peace of mind, Stern took the gold coin back to the canvas tent, lit two gelatinized candles, he reached into the burlap bag and took out some gold coins and amethyst, amethyst is no different from the one on the market, but this gold coin is engraved with the words '568 years of the holy dragon calendar of the Principality of Khadia', it is actually the gold coin of the Principality of Khadia.

Speaking of the origin of the Holy Dragon Calendar of the Principality of Cadia, there is a legend that has to be said, eight hundred years ago there was a young man named Nissen Kadia, he subdued a dragon, it is said that so far except for his dragon, the people of the continent of Kadia have never seen other dragons, with the help of the dragon established the Duchy of Cadia in the middle of the continent, and became the most powerful country on the continent at that time, and then it took him less than 30 years to unify the entire continent and named it after Kadia, and under the rule of Nissen, the language and currency of the entire continent were unified, and the whole continent reached unprecedented stability and prosperity under his rule.

Dragons generally live up to 600 to 800 years old, after the death of Nissen, the dragon has been loyal to protect the Cadia royal family for 500 years, until it left in its old age, in the 300 years after the dragon left, the Cadia royal family began to decline, all the princes have risen up to stand on their own, the Kadia continent was finally divided, after years of war, it was finally unified into the current five empires, and the Cadia Empire, which ruled the continent for more than 600 years, perished.

The gold coins of the Cadia Empire are still used in various countries on the mainland, and due to the collecting preferences of some nobles, the number of Cadia gold coins in circulation is becoming less and less valuable.

The weight of the Cadia Gold Coin is the same as that of the Bauhinia Empire, but it takes three Bauhinia Gold Coins to exchange for one Cadia Gold Coin, so the gold coins in this burlap bag are worth more than 3,000 Bauhinia Empire Gold Coins.

When Stern saw that the dwarves were using Cadia gold coins, he began to wonder about the origin of the dwarves on this small island, perhaps they were from the village of Pompeii in the southern part of the Arctic Ice Field, because in the history of Cadia, there were only dwarves in Pompeii, and they also learned the Cadian language, which should be more than a simple coincidence.

Stern's doubts need to be confirmed, so he plans to have a good talk with Goldbeard tomorrow, and he also needs to know more about the problems they encountered, after all, now that he has received so many gold coins from the dwarves, if there is any difficulty, Stern should also try his best to help them.

Stern blew out the gelatinous candle and covered the quilt to start sleeping, when someone began to snore faintly outside the canvas.

In this way, a group of sleepers came to Stern's cave, which filled the whole cave with life.
