"My lord, you can't do this, there are 4 runes on this blast furnace, which I added personally, and I can't improve it anymore."

"Your runes are too wasteful, one stove is hit with four, and after a while you look at our Tenya Mentor and Fiana Mentor adding runes, let's put it this way, according to their skills, you can go up to 10 more furnaces." The dwarf Imkawi is a mid-level runemaster who has been banished from his own mountain fort and has been running this place as a writer since he arrived here more than a decade ago.

The barbarian high priest helped him recruit the wives of the half-dwarves, and also found four abandoned dwarves and dozens of half-dwarves as his people.

When Rand entered the mine, Imkawi hesitated to leave quietly with his people until Rand sent two jars of soju.

At first, the dwarven rune master was quite hesitant, because the liquid like clear water only had a very clear aroma, and there was no smell of ale or fruit wine.

However, after the clear water liquid entered the mouth, it flowed into the stomach like a flame, and the dwarf's whole body was ignited in an instant.

For the first time since he was born, Yin Mukawi tasted such a crisp wine.

"Is there a master brewer in his tribe?" Imkawi secretly guessed. Rand found Imkawi the next day, and didn't mention anything about letting him stay, but dragged him to the blast furnace of the iron mine, and little by little explained how the blast furnace could be improved, and which piece could be added with runes.

"You now have 4 Magister-level masters, of course you can add runes," Facing the magic goblin, Yin Mukawi was also convinced,

"I'm just an intermediate runemaster, I can't do what you said!"

"So you shouldn't draw runes," Rand concluded,

"You should provide a general plan, for example, I want to renovate the mine, I want the new mining to be much more efficient"

"Hey, that's a bit difficult, if you can change the mine to an open pit, it will definitely improve efficiency, or you will expand the mining area," the dwarf's mind kept thinking,

"We also need some minecarts, preferably some tools with runes, and if it's in a dwarven castle, we'll also train some magical beasts that specialize in pulling minecarts."

"Very good, you can follow the method on your side, help me make a plan, and I'll find someone to make it" Rand is very happy that the dwarf is on the way, this outcast of the mountain castle master may be able to reach the advanced level in rune making, but the mining and metal smelting he has seen are indeed the crystallization of dwarven legends for thousands of years.

"Not only mining, but also furnaces, where do you get your fuel now?"

"Purchased from the orc tribe, the orcs have a forest farm in their hands and can provide coke," the dwarf replied,

"But in recent months, we haven't made a deal with that tribe," Rand and Imkawi discussed little by little the caves, blast furnaces, fuel, number of workers, and number of demon bearers in the iron mines.

Rand found the person who was really in charge of this iron mine, that is, the Yin Mukawi in front of him, and the barbarians had also negotiated with the mages of the human race through his suggestion, and jointly formulated the rules for all aspects of the iron mine from mining, smelting, transportation, and trading.

And Yin Mukawi also understood that the human nobles in front of him were very concerned about technology, and were willing to give him a more important position.

Rand and Imkawi spend the day wandering around the iron mines and smelting areas, while all the Terrans and barbarians work together to demolish all the buildings on the flat ground and gather valuable timber for future reuse.

In order to stabilize the orcs, the barbarian tribes that originally traded coal, iron, grain and iron between the orc tribes and iron ore had already filled up iron ore and set off again.

The remaining iron ore in the mine was transported to the riverbank by hundreds of pack animals, ready to be loaded onto ships and sent to the new industrial zone.

Without Lannia and other administrative talents, Rand had to do everything himself, but fortunately, the tents in the camp were ready-made, and even at the time of demolition, Rand finally had a place to rest after a busy day.

At this moment, Rand was sitting in the tent looking at Pete Mane Wolf in front of him, watching him hold two roast chickens with interest, and said with a smile

"So, after the fox seduced you, he told you to go to the kitchen to steal vegetables?"

"Yes, my lord, this is the third trip, she has eaten almost 5 meals today" Pete's eyes were full of shame, and Rand asked Pete Maned Wolf, a knight who was not very strong-willed, to look at Faneuil alone, hoping that the fox girl would take the opportunity to escape and run to the surrounding dark piles or orc tribes to report the news.

Unexpectedly, this fox girl not only didn't run, but also added all kinds of meals in the camp, and asked Pete to refill her meals 4 times in one day.

Even the demonless man who was cooking couldn't stand such an abnormal behavior of the mid-level knight, and followed Pete with a kitchen knife and touched the cave where Faneuil was being held.

"This fox eats like this, isn't he afraid that he will eat fat and not be able to make his charm?" Rand listened to Tenia's description, and was a little speechless by the fox.

"I asked the roaring high priest that he had been hungry for the fox and had only given him a little to eat for days," Pete said with some embarrassment.

"I don't have the energy to spend so much, observe for two more days, if she doesn't escape, take her back to Night Qi City." Just then, Tenia and Wendy came in from outside the tent.

"That fox doesn't dare to run at all, your two horses can take her back at will, so it's better to find a way to clean up those mages than to worry about her." Tanya glanced at Wendy beside her,

"Come on"

"My lord, I have placed some small magic circles in the cave, and the 3 intermediate mages and 5 junior mages in the iron mine have all entered a relatively secret cave just now." Wendy whispered,

"I went into that cave in the afternoon, it was very large and secret, and there were some magic materials and monster meat, but the mages never explained the purpose of that cave."

"It's just a secret warehouse, just like the magic chest under the high priest's bed" Rand was not surprised by the mage's behavior,

"It's normal, didn't you have a little meeting with Gandalf after you entered the salt mine last year? Pete and a few of their knights, as soon as they finished training, they began to get together and drip. ”

"My lord, that's the magic we learned from Gandalf" Wendy was a little embarrassed, because at that time, she and Lili and the others did discuss with Gandalf if they could leave Rand's team with Gandalf and return to the Dragon Kingdom.

"My lord, listen to my explanation, we just got together and rested at that time" Pete's face turned red instantly.

"Okay, it's all over, and there's nothing wrong with what you did then, so you don't have to make up for it now," Rand explained with a smile,

"At first glance, our territory doesn't seem to have much potential for development, and it's normal for them to have their own thoughts. But it doesn't matter, because what I can give them, even their family can't give. Rand knows that loyalty is not just an oath, but needs to be accumulated after giving loyalty and receiving loyalty to each other and supporting each other.

Now that he has just won the iron mine, the human race and the barbarian race have only seen their apparent strength, and they will naturally have all kinds of thoughts, and if they want to gain the loyalty of these mage knights and even the barbarians, they also need to let them see a better future.
