Chapter 61: The family is coming
Malf and they are back again, almost two months later.
This time is not like the last time, in addition to buying and selling, you also have to pick up your family.
Hopefully there will be no surprises.
Two months is not a long time, but it is also short.
During this period, there were fewer mountain people coming down the mountain. There are probably two reasons for Ma Longjue......
One can be contacted, and those who want to come down have come down.
On the other hand, as the weather warmed up, the days on the mountain were much better, and those who had ideas also shrank back.
Indeed, most people are reluctant to change their lives if they live in the past.
Decades ago, they went into the mountains to escape for their lives, and now if they can't survive in the mountains, most of them don't want to come out!
The arrival of the mountain people also brought information from the mountains to Ma Long.
Various resources, the distribution of beasts ......, including the location of a salt mine.
For the salt mine, Ma Long has some ideas, the salt in this world cannot be compared with the previous life.
Not only is the color yellow, but there is also a bitter feeling in the mouth, and Ma Long wants to try distillation to see if he can get refined salt.
At that time, the Black Stone Collar will have one more special commodity, and if it is operated well, this salt alone will be able to support the development of a territory.
With the goblin there, it is not difficult for Ma Longjue to make the distillation tools he wants.
But now there are too many things to do, and there is no shortage of money for a while, so Malone has to put this matter down first.
Seeing that the time is approaching, the day of Malf's return.
Marlon sent people to the south every day to reconnoitre, and he had the idea of building a watchtower or beacon tower there.
It's a pity that I can't be busy, so I just give up!
Harvey also took the initiative to let the patrol officers expand the patrol area, and he was also anxious......
Finally, the scout returned and found the caravan.
Malone hurriedly put down the work in his hand and asked people to greet Harvey.
He mounted his horse and said "......" and ran out first......
The road leading to the outside world in the Black Stone Collar has long been cleared, and Ma Long still knows the truth of building roads if he wants to get rich first.
Besides, there is a road here, but no one has walked for decades, and the grass has grown.
Weeds are removed, and a ready-made dirt road is completed, and the amount of work is not large.
The horse is not a war horse, but it is also considered to be a god, with four hooves flying, and running fast on the dirt road.
Ma Long was anxious, galloping all the way, provoking a lot of discussions among the people along the way.
"That's the lord, right?"
"Is there something wrong......
"Is there an enemy coming?"
Some people were frightened, some people didn't care, they all stopped and watched until Ma Long's back was gone......
"Calculate the time, it should be Lord Malf's caravan back." Someone finally guessed what was going on......
After a while, Harvey rode by and led people by, causing another wave of confusion......
When Ma Long saw the caravan slowly coming in the distance, his speed did not slow, and he rode up to meet it.
At the head of the caravan was John, who rode on his horse and waved to Malone from a distance.
"Marlon ......"
"John!"
Malone forcibly pressed the urgency to see his family, and asked John, "How is it, is everything going well?" ”
John waved his hand, and the caravan slowly came to a halt under his command.
Only then did he greet Ma Long and said, "...... Went well, nothing happened. ”
"Whew......" Ma Long breathed a sigh of relief, and the stone in his heart fell ......, and he was stable!
Looking at the rear of the caravan, I saw that everyone was tired, whether on horseback or on foot.
Malone said to John: "Let's go, get to town early and rest early, we said on the way." ”
"Okay" John nodded in agreement, waved his hand and commanded loudly: "Continue to go......"
Marlon rode alongside John and asked John about the situation along the way.
It can be seen that after these two long journeys, John has grown a lot.
He stated to Marlon: "Malf is in the middle of the cart, and his small body can't stand riding all the time. The people from the family are also on a few carriages over there, do you want to go and see it? ”
"Forget it", Ma Long shook his head and said: "Let's go back and talk about it, I've been waiting for so long, it's not bad for a while, as long as I know that they're okay!" ”
"Well......" John nodded, "Indeed, ......, everyone is very tired along the way, and this time I can't set off again right away, so I have to rest for a while." ”
Ma Long looked into the distance and said, "Don't worry, there are not many people coming down from the mountains this time, the wheat is about to be harvested, and with this batch of grain, we can almost form a virtuous circle." ”
"That's good", John also looked in the direction Marlon was looking, Marlon was from that side, and their target was also over there.
"Is there any movement?" John asked.
"It's Harvey!" Malone could hear it better, and he could hear it as the sound of horses running.
Sure enough, not long after, Harvey's figure appeared in the eyes of the two......
Arriving at Blackstone, the caravan stopped.
A group of people jumped out of the carriage, looking at the familiar figure, Ma Long's heart was excited!
"Father, Mother,"
"Grandpa......"
"Marlon ......"
"Where's the little sister?"
"Your sister is asleep and still in the car!"
"Huh......" Ma Long opened his hands and gave a warm hug to the relatives in front of him.
"I miss you guys!"
"We miss you too......" Mother choked up, wiping tears from the corners of her eyes.
The father looked at the people around him who were carrying supplies, and said with a smile: "My son has a chance and has become a lord......
No matter how you look at it, it's stupid!
My grandfather looked around, and he had changed so much that he couldn't see what he looked like thirty years ago.
But looking at the busy crowd, he seemed to have seen the previous situation, and there were tears in his eyes, but they did not shed after all.
Grandfather came over and patted Malone on the shoulder and said, "Good job......" It seemed that there was still something to say, but he didn't say it, he just patted Malone on the shoulder again!
"Marlon ......"
Ma Long followed the voice and looked over, it was Haiwen, the cousin who had been looking forward to it for a long time finally came!
"Cousin Haiwen!" Marlon beckoned, "Isn't my aunt coming?" He asked.
"In the back!" She smiled and said, "I'm here to help you,...... How's that, welcome? ”
"Definitely welcome, I'm too busy!"
……
After picking up people, Malone arranged for everyone to live, and there were still many empty houses in the town.
Especially near the middle of the lot, Ma Long deliberately stayed.
In the evening, a group of high-ranking personnel of the Black Stone Collar and their related relatives gathered at Ma Long's residence.
Malone is ready to pick up the wind for today's new arrivals.
In addition to Harvey, John and others, there was also Elijah, who was in charge of the church, and William, the representative of the Templars.
Even the goblins came the Great Sage Green, and the Great Chief Sartre.
Green is still the same, the old one seems to have to be helped when he walks, as if he can fall down at any time, but he can't fall, this is not an ordinary person!
The Great Chief Sartre is a rare strong man among the goblins, and he actually has a thick layer of muscles on his body, which is not seen in other goblins.
