In the guest room specially arranged for Lin He by the mountain dwarf tribe, Deputy Commander Ross hurried back after bidding farewell to the MiG patriarch.

Some of the things that happened during this period of time now need to be reported to the head of the regiment alone, and some information is too important for the little deputy head of the regiment to agree.

"Captain, are you tired? Would you like to take a break? ”

"No need, tell me about the past few days, and we'll discuss it in advance." Lin He stood up and placed a large ale glass in front of Rose.

This is prepared separately for the head of the group in the guest room, and the most precious ale wine of the dwarf clan should be produced in normal times, and even the MiG patriarch cannot drink it with his belly open.

Now in the captain's room, there are two large oak barrels of craft ale, which is enough to see the sincerity of these dwarves. But in Lin He's opinion, these guys slapped the horse's leg on the horse's leg. I usually rarely drink alcohol, especially in the process of performing tasks, at this time to have a cup of tea, it is better than drinking, what a group of stubborn and cute guys.

As a dwarf, Deputy Commander Ross naturally has a more suitable eating habit on the dwarf's side. Picked up the wine glass and drank most of the ale wine in one go, and after burping comfortably, he told the regiment commander about his experience in the past few days.

Exactly like the content of the letter sent back, the first place that he and Leglas visited when they returned to the 100,000 Mountains was the mountain dwarf tribe.

Because in the mercenary union's material procurement list, the largest item is steel ingots, the kind of raw steel ingots smelted by the dwarves that can directly forge weapons.

In previous years, most of the raw materials used for forging the military's standard equipment were produced by the mines within the empire, and the quality of this raw steel was far from the level of materials provided by the mountain dwarves, and the only advantage was that the output could meet the needs of the empire's equipment.

In peacetime, the armament and equipment of the military's A troops are basically made from the raw materials exported from the 100,000 mountains. The possession of ordnance made of stainless steel is often the most direct criterion for distinguishing the rank of a unit.

Every year, about four or five thousand tons of steel ingots are imported into the empire, and a large part of this is resold at high prices through the trade federation. Therefore, from a certain level, the raw materials of the imperial ordnance are largely controlled by the hands of the Trade Federation.

However, because of the estrangement between the 100,000 mountain natives, the annual purchase volume of the Trade Federation is actually not large. And a large part of it was shipped back to its side directly by the Trade Federation. The Empire gets only a fraction of what it gets. Therefore, everyone has the impression that each piece of steel ingots marked with an axe and hammer is a precious hard currency.

In fact, these hard currencies are almost rotten on the dwarves' side. Because it can't be sold at all, or there is no chance of shipping it to the human world at all.

Before the Jin Jinhua mercenary group came in, they basically relied on individual dwarves with lively brains to carry them out on their shoulders and carry them out. Tired and tired to be transported out, under the exploitation of human profiteers, the reward can be imagined.

Therefore, when Deputy Commander Rus approached the MiG patriarch this time and asked for a thousand tons of steel ingots, if they hadn't known each other before, the MiG patriarch who heard the news would definitely regard Deputy Commander Rus as a daring human liar.

The history of the dwarves has had countless such tragic experiences. The strength of the human merchant group that can appear in the territory of the dwarves should not be underestimated. The ability to deceive people is even more perfect, although the dwarves are very stupid, but they are fooled a lot, and they will slowly become smarter.

The trading volume of thousands of tons of steel, according to the price given by the Jin Jinhua mercenary group in the past, can probably be exchanged for 2,000 tons of fine oats. That's the amount of food that used to be supplied for the whole year.

When he heard that this was only the first batch, and that there might be more batches to follow, the MiG patriarch went completely crazy. Under the repeated assurances of Deputy Commander Ross, the old dwarf finally believed that the news was true.

Similarly, Deputy Commander Leglas, who was separated from himself, was in the orcs, and his experience in going to the country was estimated to be similar to his own. Because on the afternoon of the second day after he arrived at the dwarven tribe, the patriarch of the orc tribe, Kunbu, and the king of the elven kingdom, His Majesty Serrandis, both visited the dwarven tribe.

I have no way of knowing what the three of them talked about, because Deputy Head Ross at that time had already participated in several welcome banquets in a row, and he was completely drunk.

The next morning, the three bigwigs jointly visited Deputy Commander Ross, and at the meeting, the three of them, on behalf of their respective tribes, promised to give full cooperation to the material procurement operation of the Jin Jinhua mercenary group.

In addition, the most important purpose this time was that the three of them jointly sent a formal invitation to Lin He, the head of the Jin Jinhua Mercenary Group. I hope to be able to meet the head of the group as soon as possible, and there are important matters that need to be negotiated in person.

"What do you think they're trying to negotiate?" After listening to the report of Deputy Commander Ross, Lin He fell into deep thought. Although I don't know the exact purpose of these bigwigs looking for themselves, it is definitely not an ordinary dinner.

"It must have something to do with our material procurement!"

Lin He nodded in agreement, the only thing that the mercenary group can attract the attention of these bigwigs recently is the material procurement task initiated by his mercenary group.

But this kind of transaction, in the past, the relevant people who were specifically responsible for both parties were carried out independently according to the negotiated standards, and it was rare to alarm the big guys in the back. Even if it occasionally attracts the attention of a certain bigwig, it is only a matter of a single tribe itself, and this is the first time in history that a collective action like this one has ever been taken.

"I think they have reached some kind of agreement and intend to talk to us about cooperation." I have to say that the business ability of Deputy Head Ross has risen sharply recently. The depth of looking at the problem is already close to Deputy Head Love, there is a future, why didn't I realize it before.

"Go ahead and see!" Looking at Deputy Head Ross sitting opposite him with interest, Lin He decided to give this guy a chance to show himself. Let's see how much this guy has grown during this time.

"They probably think that if they continue to cooperate with our mercenary group for a long time this time, it will be a rare opportunity for them."

"What's that chance?"

"I don't know, I went to bed early that day!"

Well, this explanation is so reasonable, and it is very much in line with the style of Deputy Captain Ross. It's just that why do you want to smoke someone so much?

Forget it, now it's on other people's territory, and the ugliness of the family can't be publicized, and it's not too late to go back to the new accounts and old accounts together.
