397. Mine Convenience Store

At the gate of the backyard of the North Mithril Mine, two half-blood elf craftsmen spent two days building a log cabin according to Roy's request.

It is a wooden house with oak floors.

After a day of clanging, the hut was divided into two rooms, one with two rows of shelves, the other with only a chair and a mirror, and two rows of benches and tables outside the hut.

When the wooden house was first built, everyone was curious, but then they ignored it.

It wasn't until the wooden house was fully built that the half-blood elves and grey dwarves noticed the greenwashed house again.

The color of the house is very conspicuous, and occasionally the half-blood elves passing by the door of the wooden house will look through the window to look inside, and everyone is curious about what this wooden house does......

When all the goods were on the shelves, and each item was marked with a price tag, the half-blood elves realized that there was actually a grocery store in the Mithril Mine.

Roy even gave the convenience store a nice name '7-Eleven n'.

It's just that the half-blood elves and gray dwarves don't recognize these letters, and they think that Roy drew a row of esoteric runes.

The items placed in the two rows of shelves are also very simple, there are blankets, overalls, boots, gloves, belts, cups, plates, spoons and other daily necessities, and there are apples, breadfruit, smoked fish, wheat cakes, sea salt, maple syrup, ale wine and other foods, each of which is not much on the shelves, only the ale is a large wooden barrel, and there are some wooden wine glasses placed in the square plate next to it.

The next room was much cleaner, with only a chaise longue and a mirror, and a three-color ribbon-like spiral pattern painted on the circular pillar at the door, which the elves recognized at a glance as a barbershop.

There are always some curious half-blood elves who want to go inside the grocery store, see the price list of the items on the shelves, and touch the money bag around their waist, and only now do these elves discover the true value of these Kohlers in their pockets.

Many elves would buy a spoon or a glass of water and run out happily to talk to their companions about the grocery store at the entrance to the Mithril Mine.

Then another elf ran to buy some sea salt and maple sugar.

In this way, when they go down to the mine to mine, they can bring a pot of sweet fruit tea, which is a good thing to replenish their strength.

When the grocery store first opened, only a few half-blood elves ran to try it out, and some half-blood elves bought themselves a pair of boots with their freshly paid salary.

The Grey Dwarves had also spotted the grocery store goods, which were attractive to them, especially the unopened oak barrels, and the rows of smoked fish hanging from a rope and stacks of scones stained with wheat flour on the shelves.

The room next to it was still a barber shop, and the gray dwarves finally couldn't contain their curiosity, and they gathered around to ask how to buy food from the grocery store.

The half-blood elves guarding the grocery store tell the gray dwarves, 'These goods can only be bought with Kohler!' ’

The Grey Dwarves were a little dazed, they had been working hard in the Mithril Mines for decades, and they had never seen what Kohler looked like, so they used Kohler to buy things from the grocery store......

So a group of gray dwarves could only stand in front of the grocery store and watch the half-blood elves run to the grocery store to buy those groceries.

It seems that buying things in the grocery store has become a trend, and many half-blood elves have bought boots in the grocery store......

The Grey Dwarves had finally figured out one thing, these half-blood elven miners were paid a hundred Kollers a day, and in addition to that, the Grey Dwarves had inquired about another crucial matter.

According to the new mine owner's regulations, the total amount of Mithril ore mined by two hundred half-blood elven miners per day was one hundred and twenty minecarts.

After reaching this amount, the mine will give a reward of 20 Kohler for each additional cart of ore mined.

In order to earn more Kohler, some half-blood elf miners will dig in the mine for a while after completing the daily mining volume, and the pile of mythril ore in the mine is like this.

Seeing that the half-blood elves could buy goods from the grocery store at will, the gray dwarves were very envious.

Especially with a barrel of unopened ale in the store, many gray dwarves would run outside the grocery store every day to look inside.

The Grey Dwarves wanted to trim their beards, buy ale, smoked fish, and wheat cakes, but they also needed Kohler.

So how to get some Kohler has become the biggest problem for the gray dwarves in these Mithril mines.

Grey dwarf miners work every day without pay......

The Grey Dwarves were desperate to get some Kohler, so they came up with a good idea to negotiate with the half-blood elves, who hoped to go to the mines and dig up a cart of ore to give to the half-blood elves to earn fifteen Kohler.

Half-blood elves do not object to gray dwarves doing this, but there are a few requirements, and the mining area in the mine is predetermined by the half-blood elves.

In addition, it is not allowed to make the mine dirty, otherwise the gray dwarves will be deprived of their mining qualifications......

A cart of ore can be exchanged for twenty kollers, and after the gray dwarf is handed over to the half-blood elves, he can get fifteen kollers, and the other five kolles are the commissions of the half-blood elves.

Fifteen Kohler was in the grocery store, just in exchange for a glass of ale and a small piece of wheat cake.

Smoked fish is more expensive, and fifteen kohlers can only get a smoked fish the size of a sardine.

When these things were settled, the Grey Dwarves, who had been working in the Forge Workshop for a day, would take their pickaxes and go out into the mines to dig for Mithril ore after dinner, and at first only a few Grey Dwarves would try it secretly, but when they had been paid fifteen Kohlers, they ran to the small grocery store and finally had the salesman open the oak barrel with the ale......

For a moment, it was as if the entire Mithril Mine was filled with a faint smell of ale.

The gray dwarves in the Mithril Mine instantly became agitated, and then the gray dwarves suddenly realized that the system of six days of work and one day off in the mine was really implemented.

However, in order for the furnace to function normally, everyone had to take turns to rest.

The calculating Grey Dwarf found that there were still so many men, and that there was still so much work in the Furnace Workshop, and that if someone rested, his day's work would be shared among the other Grey Dwarves.

It's just that everyone takes turns, and naturally no gray dwarf will complain......

It seems to be nice to have a day off.

Speaking of this rest day, the gray dwarves had planned to have a good rest on the rest day, and it would be better to have a glass of ale or something, but they found that their pockets were cleaner than their faces, what could they do?

Of course, he took advantage of the rest day to carry a pickaxe into the mine to dig Mithril mines.

Dig out a cart of ore, and you can find a half-blood elf miner to earn fifteen kollers,

So on their day off, the gray dwarves basically get up early, go to the mine to dig a cart of mythril ore, and when they get the money, they go to the grocery store in the evening to buy a cup of ale and a small piece of scones, or work hard and dig up two carts of mythril ore, not only to have a drink, but also to trim their beard.

This kind of life seems to have a rush all of a sudden.

Mining sentiment in the North Mithril Mines is at an all-time high......

……

Roy was single-handedly pushed to the position of mine owner by the Earl of Swinburn, in fact, he has never actively fought for anything.

Now the North Mithril Mine is gradually being sorted out by him, just waiting for the logistics team to come as soon as possible, take the Harold Mine Owner's family away, and vacate the room on the third floor of the castle, Roy will leave here to take over the three black iron mines in another mountain range.

Roy also wanted to have a good chat with the head of Berkeley, and if he wanted the Mithril mine to make a profit as soon as possible, he asked the logistics department to send the gray dwarf prisoners of war here as soon as possible.

On the side of the South Mithril Mine, due to Roy's lack of experience, all the half-blood elf miners were lost, and they could only hold out for two months......

Unexpectedly, Roy's report had not yet been written, and the head of Berkeley actually arrived at the North Mithril Mine with a pack team, and the materials he brought over this time were a bit exaggerated, the entire pack team was full of goods, and even his magic waist bag was full of all kinds of supplies.

Looking at his posture, it was as if he had completely transported the supplies in the valley camp.

When Roy saw the head of Berkeley, when the two embraced, the head of Berkeley took the opportunity to pat Roy on the shoulder, and Roy hurriedly took the head of Berkeley to his office.

Before Roy could sit down, he was struck by the news brought by the head of Berkeley, his eyes widened, and he stared at the head of Berkeley and said:

"What, the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion is preparing to evacuate the Pagisto Plateau on all fronts?"

The head of Berkeley sat across from Roy, shook his head, and corrected with a solemn face:

"It's not that I'm ready to evacuate on all fronts, but I'm almost already withdrawing, the main force of the legion, the Silver Pegasus Warriors, have returned to the Elven Continent through the portal, only some of the guard groups can't leave for the time being, but it shouldn't last long, if no one has been going to receive the mines, maybe some mines will give up directly."

"Why is it so rushed?" Roy asked.

The head of Berkeley whispered: "There are a large number of gray dwarf pirates in the Queen Evanie Islands, and the current situation is a bit crisis...... The news of the withdrawal of the Silver Pegasus from the Partington plane is estimated to not be hidden for too long. ”

"The valley camp, everything that can be evacuated has been withdrawn, and all the materials that do not need to be taken away have been transported to various mines."

"The valley camp urges you to immediately put down everything at hand, take over the three black iron mines as soon as possible, and liberate the guards over there."

Roy's face was very bad, and he said in his heart: "You have all left, how can the mine here stop those plateau headhunters......

But he said, "You're all gone all at once, what are we going to do here?" ”

"Didn't you leave all the armaments behind!" The head of Berkeley hurriedly said: "If you can't hold it, tighten the defense, and when the battle on the Queen Evanie Islands is over, we will go back and deal with the affairs on the Partington plane......"
