A convoy of twenty large freight magic locomotives drove mightily into the Namco Mine in the northwestern part of the Dro Kingdom.

The mine had been under the control of the local Dro people, but later the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce entered the kingdom of the Dro and invested in the mine, so the two sides had a certain cooperative relationship, which greatly increased the mine's production.

However, in the riot against the foreigners that swept through almost the entire Dro kingdom a few years ago, the local Dro people claimed that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce had snatched the mine from them, and carried out extremely bloody revenge on the employees of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to take the mine back.

However, their good times were short-lived, and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce would soon send an escort into the kingdom of the Dro tribe and suppress the rebellion with the power of thunder.

The local Dro people who took revenge on the employees of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the mine riots were all arrested by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and directly executed a small number, so the control of the mine naturally fell into the hands of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Now, a few years later, the mine has made great progress under the operation of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the mine output has skyrocketed from dozens of tons per month in previous years to nearly 1,000 tons.

Except for a small part of the ore mined for the use of the local chambers of commerce in the kingdom of the Dro people, the rest will be loaded onto the transport fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, all the way south to the port in southern Wales, and then sent by sea to the main base of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce for refining.

This is one of the dozens of mines currently located on the Sainz continent by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and is one of the mines that the Xinfei Mining Chamber of Commerce has not announced to the public.

The reason why the Xinfei Mining Chamber of Commerce is now able to meet the demand for a large amount of steel and various non-ferrous metal production is due to many minerals, including the Namco mine.

After the convoy drove into the mine. Without hesitation, he went all the way to the mine. Go to the ore dumping site inside the mine.

Mine director Agbach had long been prepared. As soon as the convoy arrived, he immediately commanded the large magic forklift that had been waiting here early to start loading.

The loading capacity of each large freight magic locomotive is about 20 tons, and the total loading capacity of 20 is less than 500 tons.

The last time the convoy came to the mine for loading was four months ago, and the total amount of ore accumulated by the mine has reached more than 3,000 tons.

Therefore, the convoy is expected to work here for at least three days in a row before all the accumulated ore can be transported.

The team leader, Zeberto, had led the team several times, and of course he was very skilled in this process, and after stopping the car, he jumped straight from the passenger cab.

"Hey. Zeberto, call the brothers down for a while. After coming from afar, why do you want to have a meal and a drink first?" said Abach, who greeted Zeberto very familiarly.

Zeberto's face, which looked very rough because of his years on the road, showed a hearty smile, patted Arbach on the shoulder vigorously, and laughed loudly: "Of course we want to eat, and we also want to eat well." Say, Abach, are you ready for a big mouthful of meat?"

"Of course, of course, my brothers are well prepared every time they come. It's not that you don't know. Abach, who has been working in the mines for many years, is several times darker than Zeberto, and he also has a smile on his face. "Don't worry. This time, I asked people to buy two of the best local goats in advance to ensure that you are satisfied. ”

"Well, that's good!" Zeberto nodded in satisfaction. "The goat smell here...... Tsk, I drool just thinking about it. In this cold weather, eating mutton around the hot pot is a great pleasure. But it's a pity...... Alcohol is not to be drunk. You also know that the brothers will leave for delivery in the afternoon, and it is too easy to delay things by drinking. ”

"Hmm...... That's right. But I don't drink alcohol at this meal, and I can wait until the evening when the brothers come back, and then I will treat them well. A drink before going to bed doesn't affect the next day's work, right?"

"It's a pity that this mission is urgent, and I'm afraid that most of the brothers won't be able to spend the night here, so this meal is free. Zeberto patted Abach and sighed, "I appreciate your kindness on behalf of my brothers." You just need to take care of your brothers and eat well, and you will have a chance to drink wine or something later. ”

"Really? That's a shame. Abach pursed his lips, suddenly moved, and asked suspiciously, "You say...... Why is the above urging so urgent? Isn't it ......?"

Zeberto glared at Abach: "Don't guess the above things, we just need to do our job." ”

Agbach was slightly startled and nodded silently.

The two watched the scene of ore loading together for a while, and Zeberto waved his hand to Agbach: "Let's go, let's go to the mine and have a look, there's nothing to do here." ”

"Good. ”

Abach knew that in addition to being responsible for ore transportation, Zeberto also had the responsibility of inspecting mines in various places, and every time he went to a mine, he had to investigate the specific operation of the mines in various places, and then report to it, which could be regarded as a prosecutor sent down by the upper echelons of the Chamber of Commerce.

It is precisely because of this that he tries to build a good relationship with Zeberto every time.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be the captain of a transport convoy alone.

The two of them went to the back of the mine and took a turn, and Zeberto just looked around along the way, occasionally asking a few questions, and didn't say much.

However, seeing that he didn't say much after turning a circle, Agbach was relieved.

The absence of any particular indication means that the results of this review are good, or at least that there are no problems.

In this way, it means that the upper echelons of the Chamber of Commerce are satisfied with the results of the work in this place, and it also means that Abach's evaluation will be further improved, which will help him get promoted as soon as possible and leave this hellish place.

After the two inspected the mine, they talked and laughed and prepared to return to the residential area of the mine.

Abach had already had a hearty lunch ready to entertain Zeberto and his teammates.

However, just halfway through, he suddenly heard an unusually noisy commotion outside the mine. Sounds like a lot of people are coming this way.

Agbach's face changed suddenly.

Zeberto, who was on the side, looked in the direction the voice came from. Look at Abach's strange face again. Surprised, "What's the matter?"

Abach smiled reluctantly and waved his hand: "No, it's not a big deal......"

Zeberto's face sank, and he frowned: "Abach, don't blame me for not reminding you, those big people in the Chamber of Commerce have never been taboo about accidents below, but they are especially taboo about hiding things and not reporting them." I advise you not to try to hide it, and I can see that it is certainly not a trivial matter. ”

The expression on Agbach's face changed several times. In the end, I could only sigh in despair.

"I see...... Alas, it's not a big deal, it's just ...... It's just some troublemakers. ”

"Diao Min?" Zeberto was even more stunned. "Where did Diao Min come from?"

Agbach pointed to the gate of the mine: "Go and see and you'll understand." ”

Zeberto followed Abach to the mine gate, looked out, and was immediately taken aback.

Like most mines, the Namtso mine is located in the middle of nowhere, and there are not many people around.

However, now outside the gate of the mine, there is a crowd of black oppressors, sweeping over at a glance, I am afraid that there are thousands of people.

Only 50 locally hired guards were responsible for the safety of the mine. Although he was holding the magic repeater equipped by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in his hand, he was facing this huge crowd of nearly a thousand people. But it seems extremely weak.

Zeberto's eyes swept over and saw that the large group had clearly come organized and purposefully, as several banners were being pulled in the middle of the crowd.

After reading clearly what was written on the banner, Zeberto's eyes were a little strange.

"Namco is from our Dro tribe, get out of here!"

"Xinfei Chamber of Commerce get out of Namco! Give us a piece of peace!"

"Defend our homeland to the death!"

......

"Abach, where did this group come from?" Zeberto asked, pointing to the crowd opposite.

Agbach spread his hands and sighed, "I don't know. Since last month, there have been dozens of people running around and shouting for us to give the mine back, and then there have been more and more people, and then you see...... In the end, so many people gathered. ”

"That's not right. Zeberto frowned, puzzled: "Didn't these guys learn a lesson after the last riot? Didn't they see the fate of those Dro people who participated in the riot last time? ”

Abach smiled bitterly: "The problem is that they have only protested here from beginning to end, and they have not done anything, so there is no reason for us to do it directly against them like last time." ”

"Then just drive them away, can you keep them in the way here?"

"Then you have to get away. Agbach smiled wryly. "It's not once or twice that they've made trouble here, and on two occasions I couldn't stand it and asked the Chamber of Commerce's guards stationed near Dro City to help drive them away. But the front foot drove them away, and the back foot they came again. I can't let the escorts stay here to help chase people out, can I?"

"What do the mine guards eat, why are they all in a daze?" Zeberto asked again.

"These hired guards are all locals, and besides, they are too few in number, how can they be expected. Abach said helplessly.

Zeberto glanced at the mine guards who were blocking the gate, and found that they were all blank, and had no intention of driving the crowd away, knowing that Abach was right, these local hired guards could not be counted on.

"Didn't you talk to these people, what do they want?"

"I talked about it, but it didn't work. Agbach shook his head and sighed: "These guys want the mine, and they say let's hand over the mine to them, how can I agree?"

"How about giving them some money?"

"No, they don't accept negotiations at all. ”

Zeberto frowned deeply, looking at the crowd at the gate of the mine, desperately shouting slogans, but not carrying out any radical actions, his heart was bright.

These guys are clearly behind the organization and have come specifically for this mine.

Even...... The person behind him simply came for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

"How did you get them away before? I mean when you didn't ask the escorts to help?" Zeberto asked again.

"There's no choice but to wait for them to get tired and disperse. Agbach replied with a wry smile.

"Wait for them to disperse?" Zeberto glanced back and saw that there were already several large freight magic locomotives full of ore behind the gate, which had been forced to stop and wait behind the gate because the mine gate was blocked by those people.

"No, it's too much of a delay to go on like this. ”

Zeberto frowned, and prepared to go over and make contact with the group of people to try to negotiate.

However, as soon as he took a step, he suddenly heard a soft "whoosh" sound, which was clearly the sound of a crossbow arrow.

When I looked at it in amazement, I saw that the crowd blocking the front of the gate suddenly dispersed, revealing a clearing in the middle.

In the clearing, a middle-aged man was lying on his back to the sky, his eyes bulging out, and his face was full of incredulity.

A bolt plunged deep into his left chest, as if endless blood was pouring out of his chest, instantly staining the ground beneath him a blinding red.

The crowd, which had been unusually noisy just now, fell into a dead silence in an instant.

It took half a minute for the dead silence to be broken by an unusually shrill shout.

"Killed! Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has killed someone!" (To be continued......)
