Chapter 158: The Dwarven's Promise

The second is to cry out for the proposal, the dwarf lord with his own personal guard in a few days! After Mao II, II Mondale.

At this time, the hill dwarves had formed an offensive and defensive alliance with the Erathia Empire, and the dwarven king Hesfa had an invitation letter from Jian Chen. Therefore, it is natural that all the way is unimpeded.

The visit of the king of the clan made the Hammondals boil again, and with the matter of the dwarven foundry, the rumors of the friendly relationship between the lord and the dwarven king have become a hot topic of discussion among the lords in recent times.

And the fact that the dwarf king called Chen Jian my friend was also deliberately leaked out by some well-intentioned people.

It can make the king of a clan turn it in. Your lord is so capable!

This is the general opinion of the people.

"My friend. I have to apologize again for questioning you at Bairders, it turns out that you are indeed a friend worth making! "Meet with Grand Lord Chen Jian. The dwarven king Hasfar laughed and said.

Jian Chen smiled slightly, and warmly welcomed the Dwarven King into his tent: "King Hesfa, you have already apologized to me in your letter before, if you really regard me as a friend of the Dwarven Clan. Don't say that again. Not to mention. I didn't blame you at the beginning, but I was replaced by me, and maybe I had the same reaction as you did at the time. ”

Jian Chen's words made the Dwarf King very happy: "I am touched by your generosity, my friend!" That is. And thou shalt not call any king or king any more. You can skip that word and just call me Hesfa, but why are you still living in a tent, this really doesn't fit your identity."

"There's no way around it, the castle hasn't been built yet, so I can only live here for the time being." Speaking of this, Jian Chen was a little depressed, "But this situation shouldn't last long."

After the polite words, the topic of the two turned to the recent cooperation.

The Dwarf King seemed to be a little embarrassed that he had taken advantage of Jian Chen, and wanted to make some compensation: "My friend, I am very touched by the fact that you gave me tax exemption, but you will inevitably lose too much by doing so." You know, now that my foundry and shops are doing quite well, your daily losses will be a not small number, which makes me feel very unhappy, or you should still tax the foundries and shops as usual, right? Neither my people nor I will mind! ”

"Then you don't have to." Jian Chen smiled heartily and replied, "Actually, you have opened this foundry in my territory, and I have already made a lot of profits from it!" This. I have already explained it to you in the letter! ”

"First of all, thanks to this foundry, I can easily use your craftsmanship and great productivity to equip my lord's guard and the Hammondale Guard under my command, looking across the continent. How many armies can have such convenience? ”

"Secondly. Your arrival has made the market of Hassandale even more prosperous, and every day new caravans are coming to Hammondal, and my business tax revenues have far exceeded those of before, and besides, because of the prosperity of the market, the floating population of my territory has greatly increased, and along the way, inns and taverns, and many other industries have been brought to prosperity, which not only bring me more taxes, but also make my subjects richer, and they live and work in peace. Isn't it quite worry-free for me to be a lord? ”

"There are many benefits. I can't finish talking about it for a while. But I'm sure that when it comes to help, you and your people will help me and my territory a lot! You've only gotten gold from this plan, but I've gotten even more! So that tax. In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't accept it! ”

Jian Chen's words made the dwarf Wang Da is sigh with emotion: "In fact, my clansmen have gained more than gold coins from this calculation!" Now that the number of caravans of our people going out to trade has been greatly reduced, I wonder how many dwarves will benefit from this. No more risking to travel back and forth across the continent and even lose your precious life as a result! And the problem of food has also been well solved. It's so close from Hammondale to Bairders that my people and I won't have to worry too much about food again! Your long-term vision and wisdom have benefited both of us! That's why I'm always sorry for you. And feel ashamed and uneasy about their past behavior! So I hope you don't refuse my kindness, this tax. You deserve it anyway! ”

Jian Chen hesitated for a moment before he said, "If this can really eliminate your uneasiness, I will be disrespectful!" ”

The dwarf king laughed and said, "If you dare not collect it, I will let Sister Marche pay you a fixed tax every month, otherwise I will lose sleep every night!" Right now. Let's discuss your new plans, shall we? Did you really find a huge iron ore mine in Hammondal? It's unbelievable! ”

Chen Jiandao: . This is true, and according to the cave man who made the 62 ugly deposit, it is very likely that a huge vein will be passed by the 1:2 Baildes, and I wonder if this will be the legendary deposit of your clan. That's why I wanted to cooperate with you to mine! As you know, I don't have much population on my hands, and it is really difficult to develop this deposit alone, so I want to cooperate with you to mine it! ”

Chen Jian thought very clearly, this huge mineral deposit that extends from Hammondale to Bailders is very likely to be a huge mineral deposit in the legend of the dwarves, and it is unlikely that he wants to monopolize it, the dwarves have now taken root in Bailders, and one day they will also find this. Minerals, that is, it is better to let yourself tell them where the minerals are. In this way, he can not only sell the hill dwarves a huge favor, but also carry out large-scale mining with the help of the dwarves, and greatly increase his income in a short period of time, killing two birds with one stone.

Hearing Jian Chen's mention of the cave people, the dwarven king, who had recently fought fiercely with the Negans, first showed a look of disgust, but Jian Chen's words immediately made him become very excited.

。 Are you telling the truth? A huge mineral deposit that stretches from Hammondale all the way to Bairders? The god of the dwarves is above! Did I hear me right? The Dwarven King was a little insane and incoherent by what he had just heard, "Where is this mine?" Take me to see it! Is this true? How is this possible? Is there such a large mineral deposit in the world?

The dwarven king felt that he was about to go crazy.

The dwarven clan's legend of a huge deposit hidden beneath the holy land of Bailders was discovered by a caveman in the Hammondale area.

This was simply the most ridiculous joke and the most ridiculous lie he had ever heard in his life, but when these words came out of Jian Chen's mouth, they were no longer jokes and lies.

Under the leadership of Chen Jian, the dwarf king Hesfa visited the pit excavated by the cave people, and the astonishing amount and excellent quality of the iron ore in it made the dwarf king, who had seen many mineral deposits, stunned and stunned.

A veteran dwarven prospector who was traveling with the Dwarven King came to the exact same conclusion as Carlos the Caveman after probing the veins.

。 My king, this is definitely a super vein that straddles Bailders and Hammondale! There may be other abundant magical mines further underground! ”

The dwarven prospecting expert, who was already not young, burst into tears and choked up: "This must be the Holy Land Mineral Deposit that we have been looking for for years!" We've finally found it! ”

The dwarf king, who was touching his shiny beard and was stupid, was made by this news, and he was excited. I almost didn't pull off all of my beard.

"My friend! I can't put you into words! The dwarf king Hesfa grabbed Chen Jian's hands and shook them desperately, so strong that Chen Jianjue's own hands were about to break, "It's the mineral deposits you found in your territory." You could have organized your own mining, but you have selflessly chosen to share it with our hill dwarves! Your kindness to our people will never be forgotten! It is an honor for me and my clan to have a friend like you! ”

After returning to the camp, the dwarf king's mood still did not completely calm down, and he kept pacing back and forth in Chen Jian's tent to vent the strong shock that this incident had brought to him.

"From now on, you will be our friends forever among the hill dwarves. In the future, if you have any difficulties and need the help of our hill dwarves, just ask, we will definitely do our best to help you! This is the promise that this is a promise made by Horsfa and all the Hill Dwarves to you, a good friend! And the promises of the dwarves will never fail."

The dwarf king patted his strong chest and said to Jian Chen.

This result was completely unexpected by Jian Chen, originally he just wanted to take advantage of this. It's just a matter of making some extra requests when cooperating, but I didn't expect the Dwarf King to react so violently.

The Dwarf King didn't notice Jian Chen's consternation, and continued to walk back and forth while waving his stubby arms and talking. Our stone castle will always be open to you! ”

At this time, Chen Jian began to be a little worried.

Judging from the dwarven king's reaction, the reserves of this iron ore are far beyond Chen Jian's own imagination, and he wants to use the power of the dwarves to develop the territory as soon as possible. And share such a huge deposit with the dwarves. Will the Erathian Empire sit idly by? What kind of attitude would Empress Catherine have?

Although the mineral deposits in his own territory belong to his lord, he has no right to deal with the empire and the empress, but when the reserves of this iron ore are already large enough to allow one. The level to which the country is tempted, will it still be like this?
