Chapter 266: A beautiful woman, but a thief

In order to stay as long as possible, Lacey. Banhard had no choice but to extend the trading hours, which was delayed until the next evening.

If there's still no harvest tonight, then Lacey. Banhard had to think of another way, but today Lacey. Banhard's luck seemed to be good, and it didn't take much effort to find a huge building with crimson fire, built along the river, and a huge wooden wheel (waterwheel) next to it.

Before we could get closer, Lacey. Banhard had a hunch that this might be the biggest goal of the trip, and she was like a phantom melted into the darkness in a night suit, quietly infiltrating the smelter.

Lacey. Banhard was really shocked, because she saw a huge metal block more than ten meters high in this huge house, which was densely packed with iron ingots, and the furnace on the roof of the Gundam shed was inadvertently ignored by her, what she was looking for on this trip was the metal of Blackstone City, and now she finally got her wish, she didn't know how many swords could be made after these iron ingots melted, but it was definitely not a problem to arm 18,000 people.

This is a good thing for Blackstone City, but it is a big problem for the Flame Empire, and I'm afraid no one wants to face strong orcs armed to the teeth.

Lacey. Banhard silently touched the ring on the little finger of his right hand, and the corners of his mouth were full of a happy smile, although he didn't know how Xing Xiaotian transported so much metal here, but since so many iron ingots were placed in front of his āŠ•, w≠ww.

It's just that it's not the time yet, and rash action can only bring death to his subordinates, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, Lacey. Banhard retreated into the darkness on tiptoe.

Early the next morning, the caravan commander submitted his resignation to Xing Xiaotian, and Xing Xiaotian "politely" sent troops to escort the caravan out of his territory, and in the end he was still a little confused, what did these so-called merchants do. You don't really want to make some extra money from yourself, do you?

Putting aside the other party's intentions, this transaction really made Xing Xiaotian make a small profit, he didn't care much about grain and cloth, the key is that those pack horses and camels are too important, Blackstone City has long faced the problem of insufficient transportation capacity, and the camel team is the biggest shortcoming.

Well, now that these two days of trading alone, Xing Xiaotian has harvested nearly two hundred camels plus fifty pack horses, so to speak~~ Except for necessities and exchanged goods, this caravan has left almost everything behind. And all Blackstone pays for is some fruits, flowers, and other recycled products, oh yes, some pots and pans.

It's just that Xing Xiaotian's good mood didn't last long, because his subordinates soon came to report that ten dragon fruit trees had been lost in the orchard.

Xing Xiaotian didn't have to think about it to know that it must have been stolen by these people, because it seems a little worthless to start a war with ten dragon fruits, but it is a little breathless if you don't start it. In the end, Xing Xiaotian could only selectively forget, just feed the dogs, anyway, there are only ten plants, and it is still very early to form a scale.

Xing Xiaotian was happy early. A week later, Zhao Liang suddenly rushed into Xing Xiaotian's bedroom with a panicked face, and said in a stumbling voice: "...... Not...... Gone...... Didn't ......."

"What's missing? Fuss, you slow down! ā€

Zhao Liang took two big breaths before he gasped and said, "This morning." As soon as I opened the door of the smelting workshop, I found that there was no iron ingot stored in the workshop, which was a full fifty tons! ā€

"What?"

After hearing this, Xing Xiaotian stood up violently. Almost without thinking, he came up with a sentence: "Who is tired of his mother's life?" Dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head? ā€

However, Xing Xiaotian is Xing Xiaotian after all, and he has experienced a lot of things, even if he has no self-cultivation, he can cultivate self-cultivation, and his mind quickly follows this matter and ponders about it.

Fifty tons of iron ingots, that is definitely not a small amount, no matter who stole it, it can't be hidden from the guards, unless~~ the other party has a storage ring like him, only in this way can it make sense, and the most likely is the caravan that has just left, because the surrounding vassal races don't have the courage or this condition at all.

Careless, really careless!

But at this time, it's too late to chase anymore, and now I can only make amends.

After suppressing the anger in his heart, Xing Xiaotian asked Zhao Liang in a deep voice, "Who else knows about this matter except you?" ā€

"There's no one left, I'm the only one who knows, I'll report to you as soon as possible!"

It's okay, after all, things haven't broken to the house, if this matter is exposed, it will definitely be a big threat to his prestige.

Since the matter has not been poked out, it will be easy to do, pinch your nose first and admit it, this account will have to be recovered sooner or later.

"Zhao Liang, you go and negotiate with those rat people of the Mosi clan, let them build you an underground storage room, and hide the iron ingot ore or something there in the future, and bring it up when you use it, even if it is troublesome, it is better than being stolen."

Zhao Liang naturally nodded again and again when he listened, and only took the time to reply: "My lord, those iron ingots ......"

"What kind of iron ingot, you can't find it back, can people still wait for you to catch it? At this time, it has long been gone, and you will tell the public that I transported this batch of iron ingots, understand? ā€

"Understood! Got it! Zhao Liang was naturally busy, to be honest, he now likes life here more and more.

As a familiar smelting master, he is absolutely like a fish in water in Blackstone City, it can be said that except for Xing Xiaotian and those master mothers, almost all orcs have to please him, no way~ If you want good weapons and good armor, you have to beg him, for this Xing Xiaotian to open one eye, close one eye, who doesn't have a vanity? No matter what, people are also in their own frames, and they are a little sorry for others, so why can't they wronged him anymore, as long as there is no chaos in the general direction, then let him toss.

Under Xing Xiaotian's order, the rats of the Maosi tribe began to get busy again, not only to have an underground storage room, but also to dig a tunnel leading to the underground world.

These nezumi are really good-looking, they work fast, and they don't have any complaints.

Since the rat man works so hard, it is naturally not good for Xing Xiaotian to let others be idle, there is one thing that should have been done a long time ago, and now that everything is fine, it is just right to do it together!
