The mine strike, which had been going on for several days, was shattered by Roy's clear price tag.

Roy didn't care what was going on, and he didn't care about how the elven prisoners and the gray dwarves were fighting, he only needed to fill the wooden chest with gem mines, and he would send fruits and honey under the mines according to the list of foods pressed under the gem mines.

Roy even nailed a wooden board to the large wooden box with the words 'Underground Supermarket' written in dye.

Low-quality ores may require a large pile to get a green apple, while high-quality ores will be greatly increased in price list, and will be exchanged for other fruits, and high-quality spinel ores can even be exchanged for a small cup of honey.

On the third day, the large wooden box was hoisted up again, and the ore inside was obviously placed in different categories, and each pile of ore had a note on what to exchange, and the low-quality ore and the high-quality ore owner were clearly separated.

This time, Roy saw a small pile of high-quality spinel ore in the large wooden box, the bright blood color like condensation, and countless filaments contained in the crystals, which were piled up in the most conspicuous position in the wooden box, and a piece of tattered leather the size of a palm was pressed underneath, and ten cups of 'ale' were actually written on it.

According to the price list clearly marked on the price list, only the best spinel ore can be exchanged for ale.

Roy brought the ore to the old elf who was in charge of identifying the gem mine, the old elf looked extremely thin, with a big head on his thin neck, and some sunken cheeks, which made his eyes look big, and he didn't know how many years he had lived in this mine, seeing that his hands were full of calluses, and his nails had not been trimmed for a long time, like chicken feet.

The old elf's gaze fell on a spinel ore, and he kept sliding his fingertips over the ore, almost putting the ore on the horse lamp, letting the white light shine through the dark red crystal filaments like jelly, and said to Roy:

"Lord Guard, this is the high-grade spinel ore, you see the exposed side, the color of the gem is dark red and frozen, and the crystal filaments inside are so fine, it is a rare high-grade ore."

Then the old elf said to Roy:

"This kind of high-grade ore is not much in the vein, and it is not easy to be excavated, and in the past, when the mine was operating normally, this spinel ore would only produce a few pieces a day."

With that, he bent over and led Roy into Warehouse 2, where a large amount of unprocessed spinel ore was stored.

The spinel ores crashed into the wooden crates, neatly stacked, like high walls.

The old elf stretched out his hand to pat these wooden boxes, and said to Roy: "These are low-grade spinel, the largest number in the warehouse, and there are some medium-grade spinel ores over there, there can probably be dozens of boxes, like this kind of high-grade spinel ore, the owner of Grantham has saved less than four boxes in the past two years......"

The old elf walked to the end of warehouse No. 2 and stopped in front of a large wooden box, where he stretched out his bony hands and pushed the lid hard.

"I'm old, I can't even push the lid of this box, help me open the lid of the box......"

The old elf said to Roy as he lifted the lid of the box vigorously.

Roy helped him open the lid of the box, and it was filled with all kinds of irregular high-grade spinel ores, each of which was as crystal clear as jelly......

If this thing is polished, the value may be even higher.

Roy thought to himself, no wonder he saw the Grantham mine owner wandering around the door of warehouse No. 2 that night, it turned out that the warehouse was stocked with so many good things.

Walking out of warehouse two, Roy found Captain Jones and reported to him what was produced in the mine today, and then said that he needed to supply the prisoners and gray dwarves below the mine with fruit and ale, and Roy could get the fruit from the cafeteria, but the ale needed special approval from Captain Yalig.

Alcohol is forbidden in the elven army, so there is no ale in the cavalry vanguard.

Although there is no one in the Pioneer Regiment, there is a special wine cellar in the basement of the mine, in which more than a dozen barrels of ale are stored.

These were sealed trophies, and Roy needed the approval of Captain Yalig to get to the cellar to carry the ales.

"Jones, you're coming to me...... What's the matter? ”

Captain Yalig was reading a list, the logistics team will arrive at the mine fortress tomorrow, he needs to prepare the list of supplies on this side of the mine before the logistics team arrives, and when the time comes, he will hand it over to the logistics group with the Grantham mine owner and his private army, and at that time, how to transport them from the Padesto plateau to the city of Paddestow is a matter for the logistics group.

Before that, Captain Yalig had to check the materials on the mine's side.

Captain Jones leaned over and said to Captain Yarigo with a smile:

"Captain, you have asked our 10th Reconnaissance Team to guard the exit of the mine and try to resume the mine's daily mining of gem mines, now that the prisoners and gray dwarves in the mine have started to work, we also need to fulfill our promise to provide food to the mine...... And ale. ”

Captain Yalig raised his head and placed the list of supplies in his hand on the table.

"Ale? How could you promise them to provide this? Captain Yalig asked with a frown.

"Let Roy explain this to you." Captain Jones glanced at Roy beside him and said slowly.

Roy took a step forward and said to Captain Yalig:

"In order to allow the mine to resume gem mining, I have opened an exchange list for the prisoners and dwarves below, because the dwarves are heavy drinkers, so I added the ale to the exchange list, and I hope that Captain Yalig will agree that I will use the ale stored in the mine's cellars."

Captain Yalig hesitated for a moment, then asked Captain Jones, "The prisoners in the mine are willing to mine ore again?" ”

"So far." Captain Jones replied truthfully.

"Then what are you waiting for, go and get the ale out of the cellar and let the gray dwarves work well in the well......" Captain Yalig finished speaking, and tore off a sticky note, signed his name on it, and wrote a line:

'Captain Jones of the 10th Reconnaissance Team went to the cellar to fetch a barrel of ale, and asked the guards to cooperate. Scout Brigade Yalig. ’

With this signed note, Captain Jones was able to get Roy to pick up the ale in the cellar.

Captain Jones got the note and prepared to leave with Roy.

"Jones, let your soldiers get the ale, and you stay." Captain Yalig said.

Captain Jones quickly stopped, handed the note to Roy, and motioned for him to go to the cellar to get the ale, while he turned around and waited for Captain Yalig's question.

"In the last two days, the mine has resumed normal mining?" Captain Yalig asked.

In fact, he has been following this matter for the past two days, although there was some ore production in the first two days, but it is not certain that this output will continue steadily.

Captain Jones knew what was going on in Captain Yarigo's mind, and said:

"Although it may not be as good as the previous mining volume, there will indeed be a batch of gem mines hanging up from the mine every day, after all, those half-blood elf miners have been rescued by us."

Captain Yalig's face showed joy and said loudly, "That's good! At least I can hand over the Grantham mine owner to the logistics team. ”

Then he added: "If this guy stays in the mine, it's just a time bomb, maybe it will explode at any time." Tomorrow the logistics regiment will arrive at the mines, and I will hand over Grantham and his private army by then, and then our side will not have so much responsibility. ”

"You're going to hand Grantham over to the logistics team? Yesterday it was not said that an envoy would be sent from Padstow to talk to the owner of the Grantham mines. Captain Jones asked, confused.

"If we can get this gem mine running ourselves, then what are we talking to the Grantham mine owner!" Captain Yalig said with some disdain, and then said: "It seems that this Roy still has a lot of ideas, you should encourage him a lot after you go back, so that he can manage this side of the mine well!" ”

"Yes, I will, Captain!"

Captain Jones gave Captain Yalig a military salute before turning away.

……

Roy had already removed a barrel of ale from the cellar and had the barrel be transported directly to the mine, then found a large wooden wine glass from the dining room, pulled out the cork of the oak barrel, and poured the ale with a strong wood smell into the large wine glass.

The amber liquid swirls in the glass, and a layer of white foam floats on the surface.

Roy placed the glass full of ale into the wooden box, along with some apples, breadfruit, oranges, dried fish, and honey.

After checking the amount of exchange and confirming that there was no problem, Roy and his companions put the large wooden box in the well.

This mine is at least five hundred meters deep, and it takes a long time to put the large wooden boxes down.

When the wooden box finally fell to the bottom of the well, there was a cheer at the bottom of the well again.

On the fourth day, more gem mines were delivered.

Roy judged that the group of gray dwarves from the depths of the mines should have joined in.

In short, the whole large wooden box is very heavy, and if it weren't for the labor-saving boom, Roy wouldn't have been able to lift such a large box directly.

……

With a steady stream of gem mines emerging from the mines, the Silver Pegasus Legion's logistics regiment has arrived at the mine.

This time, it was still the head of Berkeley who led the team, and he arrived at the mine with a large amount of necessary supplies, so he took the first step to see the private army of the mine locked in the warehouse, and he needed to ensure that the private army in the mine would not riot in the middle.

The spirit of the elven private army in the barn was a little sluggish, huddled together one by one, and meditated in the barn.

Captain Berkeley, accompanied by Captain Yalig, entered the barn, only to see that there were more than 200 private soldiers sitting in the barn, and the head of Berkeley frowned again and again.

The number of these elven private armies exceeded his estimates, and his logistics regiment was less than two hundred people.

It is dangerous to now escort these mine smugglers back to the city of Padusto......

Captain Yalig looked at this group of elven warriors who had been disarmed, and couldn't help but lean into the ear of the head of Berkeley, and whispered:

"Since this side can work normally, let's escort them back to Padstow City!"

The head of Berkeley gritted his teeth, he couldn't hide from this kind of thing, so he could only bite the bullet and say:

"We'll leave tomorrow, if you have any special supplies for us, you must give me the list before you leave tomorrow."

The head of Berkeley is afraid that the night will be long and dreamy, and there will be some unexpected changes.

So it was proposed to take the Grantham mine owner and his private army to Padstow tomorrow......

Seeing that Captain Berkeley was in such a hurry, Captain Yalig thought about it and added another item to the list full of needs.

Captain Yalig said to Captain Berkeley:

"Then bring a few more barrels of ale, rum or something."

Although the head of Berkeley was a little hesitant, he still agreed: "Oh, this is no problem, but if you apply for alcoholic drinks, you need to provide a reason, otherwise the chief will not approve it." ”

Captain Yalig said, "These ales and rum are for the gray dwarves below the mines, and only by giving them wine can they mine the gem mines. ”

"Be sure to note this reason on the material application form."

The head of Berkeley spoke to Yalig again.

……

In the barn that night, the private soldiers of the mine who were confined here sat honestly on the floor, waiting for the Silver Pegasus Legion to fall.

These elven warriors sat in a huddle with some simple food in front of them.

Everything else is fine except that there is no freedom.

While everyone was eating silently, the door of the barn was pushed open from the outside.

The Grantham mine owner walked in with a gloomy face, and he looked imposing with a fur coat draped over his body.

As soon as the Grantham mine owner walked in, a group of elven warriors stood up one after another, and everyone surrounded the Grantham mine owner and asked about the current situation.

The Grantham mine owner said resentfully:

"The day before yesterday, Captain Heckles also said that he wanted me to continue to take over the mine, but most of the income share of the gem mine in the mine will fall into the hands of that group of silver moon elves, I thought about it for a while and agreed, who made us prisoners of the order, I was going to pinch my nose and admit it, but today there is a logistics group in the mine, in addition to transporting supplies here, they are also ready to bring you to Padstow City!"

A group of elven private soldiers suddenly fried in the warehouse, but the street still didn't dare to shout and make noise.

"Lord Grantham, what are we going to do?" A private army leader asked the mine owner.

The Grantham mine owner said with a cold face: "What else can I do, of course, I am looking for a chance to escape halfway, they are just ordinary elves who transport supplies from the logistics group, and when the time comes, those headhunters will also meet us halfway, as long as you follow my signal to launch a riot, it will not be difficult to escape!" ”

"When the time comes, we will take a detour to ......"

The Grantham mine owner drew a simple map on the ground and told the elven privates his plan.

Under the panic of the elven private army, it was like grasping the last straw, and everyone said:

"Lord Grantham, we'll follow you."
