Chapter 36: An Overcrowded Camp
The luck of the good guy Captain Lin is really not too good!
I was woken up by the noise early in the morning, and looked up at the sky outside, feeling that it was still early. The bugler didn't blow the bugle either, and the guys outside were making a lot of noise.
Covered with a quilt, I was ready to sleep again, but the movement outside was too big. Lin He simply got up and got dressed, intending to see if it was those who didn't sleep in the morning, and whether the daily training was too easy.
Pushing open the door, I saw Gray running over, this guy looked like he was in a hurry, and he looked like he had something to report.
"What's wrong? Gray! ”
"Commander, Deputy Commander Love asked me to inform you that the orc convoy has arrived and is gathering in the clearing at the mouth of the valley!"
"Oh. Let's go, let's go! ”
In fact, the orc convoy touched the periphery of the Grand Canyon camp in the middle of the night, and if it weren't for the fear that the sleep of the group leader would be affected in the middle of the night, it is estimated that they would have rushed over directly.
It is said that after a few hours of cats under a big tree in the wild, seeing that the sky was bright, he finally rushed over with a lot of noise, and almost clashed with the soldiers on duty at night.
These guys are highly motivated now, and when they heard that the regimental commander had recruited a large number of recruits, everyone felt the pressure from the regimental commander.
It's also a group of simple-minded guys like the Monster People, if they were dwarves, they would definitely send someone to notify them in advance. Not only did the gang not notice, but they also suddenly drilled out a group of wolf cavalry, so frightened that the mercenaries on duty almost shot these guys who didn't know whether they were alive or dead in the open space in front of them.
Fortunately, it was the deputy head of the Stafford on duty today, and the launch of the crossbow bolts was canceled at the first time. Otherwise, the salt industry group is estimated to have not opened yet, and it will have to pay a large amount of pension.
The orc convoy was led by the patriarch himself, and a total of thirty tons of refined salt were transported on their shoulders. According to the current market price, it is almost 30,000 gold coins.
Facing the patriarch who came from afar, Lin He didn't have any vain welcome ceremony. After handing over the goods, the person was directly led to the place to eat. In the face of a group of hungry ghosts who secretly swallow saliva, the group leader has only one request, to destroy the food in front of him!
After killing half of the white bread in one bite, the Khumbu patriarch closed his eyes and savored the bread in his mouth, and the whole person was intoxicated. The hard work along the way finally paid off beyond expectations at this moment.
"Patriarch Khumbu, come, try our unique beetroot soup again, and see if the Fu is not to your taste!" Lin He, who was sitting across the table, personally stood up and put a large bowl of fragrant beetroot soup in front of the patriarch opposite.
The Khumbu patriarch, who was choking on bread and only stretched his neck, gratefully picked up and took half of the bowl of vegetable soup in one gulp. Only then did he touch his stomach comfortably and smile gratefully at his leader. Then he bowed his head and began to compete with the bread in his hand.
What a bunch of real guys!
In less than half an hour, the first members of the security department of the salt industry group to arrive at the camp had exhausted all the meals prepared for the others. You know, that's a whole six or seven thousand people.
The others who rushed over to eat were so angry that they almost stewed these starving ghosts. If it weren't for the ill-intentioned gaze of the group leader, everyone would have already begun to prepare to do it.
"Ugh! Captain, we're full, look at what we should do next! ”
What else can you do, of course, it's to run away with your uncles. Don't you see thousands of pairs of malicious eyes looking at you?
dragged the depressed Deputy Head of Love, motioned to the old man to quickly arrange a place for the well-fed uncles to rest, and walked to the room first. You have to re-prepare breakfast as quickly as possible, or you should collect the bodies of the guys who ran away.
Fortunately, breakfast didn't take much effort, and with the help of everyone's concerted efforts, breakfast was finally prepared for everyone in the shortest possible time.
As the head of the group, you will always have priority in eating food. As soon as I sat down at the table and prepared to enjoy a delicious breakfast, I heard the sound of the elves' bagpipes.
Another group of starving ghosts has come to the door!
Lin He immediately ordered the house to start work again, and he must make a decent breakfast as soon as possible. There are not enough people to pull people on the spot, and the materials are not enough to move directly to the warehouse, and the only requirement is to be able to eat breakfast in your mouth.
With Staff, Deputy Commander Cohen ran to the arrow tower at the mouth of the valley and saw the team coming in the distance. Guided by several long-tailed pennants, Deputy Commander Legolas finally led the elven convoy and arrived at the Sunset Grand Canyon camp last.
A few old partners who hadn't seen each other for more than ten days hugged happily. Until now, the first batch of teams sent by various branches finally arrived at the headquarters of the Sunset Grand Canyon on time.
The goods were handed over, a hearty breakfast was enjoyed as usual, and a place to rest was arranged as usual. This process was later carried out twice, although there were few trolls and lichs, but the bad guys also represented a company, and the etiquette could not let these buns see the difference.
It wasn't until the Lich Clan arrived at the end of the arrangement that several high-ranking mercenary group leaders finally had the opportunity to sit down and plan their work arrangements for the future.
First of all, 30% of the payment paid by the mercenary union in the past few days has arrived at the Sunset Grand Canyon camp in the form of supplies. In total, there were 5,000 tons of grain, a large amount of cloth, and a small amount of pack horses.
According to the proportion of 37 of the purchased materials, this batch of materials can be enough to pay for the goods on this side of the mountain. The dwarves have already transported 2,000 tons of grain, and Lin He plans to allocate 1,000 tons from the orcs as well. In addition, the elves, on their part, plan to give priority to the payment of handmade raw materials such as cloth and silk, supplemented by a small amount of food.
As for the trolls and the lich, the two poor bastard companies, just make sure that these guys are fed and lodging first. Running over and joining the gang with empty hands, how could the cautious regiment leader have a good face.
As for the arrangement on their side, several deputy heads of regiments also have no opinion at all. Just kidding, if you have an opinion, you have to think of an opinion, how good it is to go out and cut down a handful of people with this kung fu. As for the matter of using the brain, we all listen to the head of the regiment if we want to.
As for the mercenary union's side, Lin He planned to send Deputy Commander Cohen to drive back to Leaf City in the afternoon, and do a good job of handing over the first batch of materials with the mercenary union. As for the follow-up procurement needs of several forces yesterday, they also need to be implemented by Deputy Head Cohen, especially the relationship between the mayor and the mayor should be done in advance.
After arranging the work, Lin He straightened up and looked at everyone sitting there to see if everyone else had anything to add. It's a pity that when I looked around, several big and rough people all had the same expressions.
"Then let's get busy!"
