Digging a pit is easy to say, but it's not always the case. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Choosing the right location, avoiding excessively hard or excessively soft soil, avoiding underground water veins, is the basic skill, digging the tunnel into a suitable shape, easy to enter and exit, convenient to transport soil and rock, this is a compulsory course, while digging while reinforcing the tunnel, to avoid collapse, this is the first priority.

These are things that have to be done, and they must be done well, otherwise, either you can't dig down, or you have an accident while digging.

The most common accident, of course, is collapse.

The most common, but also the most terrifying.

The tunnel is buried deep underground, and if it collapses, almost everyone in the tunnel will die. Even the professional adventurers will have a hard time surviving the collapsed tunnels until rescue comes.

There have been more than one such accidents in the past in the town of Pyroxen, so much so that miners have become the most feared profession. It wasn't until Mayor Ferex arrived, ushering in a new era in Pyroxene, that excavation techniques were improved and this danger avoided.

The cost of excavation has increased dramatically, at least three times as much as it used to be.

There are also veins around the town, but unlike the town of Pyroxene, the veins are shallow and are generally open or semi-open. Mining itself is less risky, and the rewards are slightly more.

This is also the reason why the town of Pyroxene was slowly dilapidated at the beginning, and the town of Gold Rush was able to maintain it.

But there are pros and cons to this, because mining was easy in the past, so there was a lack of senior miners in Gold Mining Town, and they could only be regarded as beginners in the mining industry. If it weren't for the fact that some people had been sent to Pyroxene Town - and later Pyroxene City - to study over the years, I am afraid that they would not even be able to enter the door.

After all, the technique known as "pyroxene excavation" is really complicated. It involves not only the determination of soil quality and the construction of support works, but also a very detailed inspection technique to ensure that the tunnel can be firmly supported and will not collapse.

Using pyroxene excavation, it is safe, but the work efficiency is really not high. Over the years, the town has recruited as many manpower as possible, but it has only dug a small underground farm, and can only raise about one pool of ice and snow fish in total.

This slow-growing fish takes three years to grow to be ready for sale, and three years require constant care and high labor costs. But every time the fish is on the market, the price will drop a lot because of the slightly higher production - the current gourmets in the main plane even have experience, and they will no longer pay as high prices as they did when they wait to eat summer ice and snow fish once every three years.

In this case, the mayor of Gold Rush Town has been pondering digging another underground farm. But he really couldn't transfer more manpower, and there were only four or five people working on the construction site at the moment, and the progress was so slow that it made people sigh.

And if you replace the workers with skeletons, these problems will be much easier to solve.

Collapse, collapse, collapse, anyway, the skeleton is crushed to death and then summoned. What's more, it may not be crushed to death, and the skeleton doesn't have to breathe.

Anyway, there is no need to pay wages to the skeletons, and they don't even have to pay for food and lodging.

The only thing to note is that the area around the site must be designated as a restricted area, and no one is allowed to approach it. Only those who were armed with the magic weapon made by Tuyaan that could conceal the breath of the living could occasionally come over to check the progress of the project.

"The skeletons aren't going to be very productive. Tuyaan summoned the skeletons, gave them orders, and said, "You can't expect to dig the tunnel out anytime soon. ”

"I'm not in a hurry. Mayor Almak said with a smile, "It's like a proverb, if you have dates or not, you can hit two poles, it's good to have them, but it doesn't matter if you don't." It doesn't cost anything anyway. ”

Tuyaan also smiled, it would be best if Mayor Almak could have such a peaceful mind.

He's seen too many people who fail things they could have done well because they were in a hurry. For example, a senior brother started earlier than him, and his achievements were above him, but because of his impatience, he failed when he finally hit the legendary realm, and he couldn't even transform into a lich to continue living, and finally died.

He thought for a moment and then reminded, "Beware of people breaking the no-approach signs around here, and of course someone entering by mistake. ”

"Don't worry. Mayor Almak said, "The Northwest people are reasonable and disciplined. As long as I tell them this, no one will dare to come near again. You know, we actually have a lot of psychological shadows about skeletons!"

Speaking of this, he smiled instead, and smiled heartily.

"If someone deliberately lured these skeletons out......" Tuyaan said with a frown.

"If you draw it out, you will draw it out. The mayor of Almak Town said nonchalantly, "There is a purification circle around the town, and skeletons can't get in." ”

"But...... What if you get to the construction site?"

"There is also a purification circle around the construction site. ”

Tu Yaan shook his head: "The purification circle can be destroyed. ”

Mayor Almac laughed: "You're too worried! If someone is so capable, why bother? He directly kills people one by one, maybe faster than a group of skeletons." ”

He pointed to the skeletons who were slowly digging with bone tools on the fenced construction site and said, "Look, there are about 200 skeletons here. It seems like a lot to say, but the skeletons can't go fast, and the combat effectiveness is actually not strong. There are a dozen strong men, and they can rush out of their encirclement, what's so scary?"

Tu Yaan thought about it carefully, and it was indeed the same reason.

A small number of skeletons are not actually dangerous to people.

He just fell into the misunderstanding before, thinking that the undead were too dangerous for ordinary people. In fact, if nothing else, at least skeletons, unless they are caught off guard or formed into a scale, it is almost impossible for ordinary people to be killed by it.

If you can't beat it, can't you run away?

Of course, it was another matter after the skeletons advanced, but with Tuyaan here, of course he couldn't let these skeletons have a chance to advance.

To say that a skeleton can advance under the nose of his legendary necromancer would be to flout his expertise!

Not to mention advancement, as long as there are signs of advancement, he will capture that skeleton and re-summon ordinary skeletons to replenish it.

Advanced skeletons are quite useful, what a pity to use them for mining......

After doing this, Mayor Almak began to talk to Tuyaan about compensation.

Of course, Tu Yaan didn't want to be rewarded, one was that he felt that His Majesty the Void Mask had already given it, and it was enough, and the other was ...... He really didn't pay attention to the small place of Gold Rush Town. In this small town, where can there be enough to pay a legendary mage?

But Mayor Almak's words dispelled his thoughts.

"I intend to divide the proceeds of this farm into three parts, one for the Republic according to the regulations, one for the development of the town, and one for your payment. You can keep it as a good asset for your descendants, or for your relatives, friends, students...... Even if you don't, they might. ”

When Tuyaan heard this, he felt that it did make sense. Of course, I don't like this money, but I will definitely have students in the future, and when students graduate, it is good to give them a gift of family property.

Even if there are no students, Tessa is resurrected now, and she will need a dowry when she grows up in the future. There is an inheritance as a dowry, how much face!

It's just that...... Thinking that his sister was going to marry in the future, he couldn't help but frown his eyebrows, and his mood became less pleasant...... (To be continued.) )
