The closure of the Dragon Oak Portal, the biggest impact on the kobolds' side, is the problem of food supply.

To this end, Gavin specially summoned the mayors of the three towns to listen to their recent development reports.

"Susie, you come first." Gavin was the first to name the mayor of Trappit.

The order of speeches at this kind of meeting is not casual, but has a deep meaning.

It represents Gavin's focus as the lord of the lord, and the rest of the people will naturally revolve around the concerns of the supreme leader in their subsequent development.

This is leadership.

Not only for kobolds, but also for other intelligent races.

Because figuring out the minds of superiors is a survival instinct of all subordinates, and consciously or unconsciously, some things are amplified.

As a qualified ruler, you must understand your subordinates clearly in order to maximize your interests.

Gavin is also a beginner in this area, and in recent times, he has gained a lot of experience from Zalanda's side.

Gavin's current focus on the Dragon Oak Collar is not on the pillar industry of the Black Well Iron Mine, but on the Trap Spirit Crystal Mine.

At present, there are very few Lingjing mines for sale, and the total sales are less than one percent of the Heijing Iron Mine.

It's not that there are no sales channels, on the contrary, under the unremitting efforts of the Thousand Head Chamber of Commerce, not only the sales channels have been opened, but also in short supply, in the former Zamdas Empire's territory, that is, the current Weihong Sea area, this kind of spar has a great demand, and recently there has been a mysterious buyer, spending a lot of money, how much to eat, most of the spirit crystals sold by the dragon rubber collar have entered his hands.

It's not that the output of Trap Town can't go up, compared to the beginning, the output of spirit crystals has increased more than ten times.

At the beginning, Gavin deliberately controlled the number of spirit crystals sold to the outside world, after all, this is a kind of spar related to spellcasting, not to mention that the value exceeds that of the Black Well Iron Mine, even if it is comparable, it may attract the prying eyes of some spellcasters.

Later, there was a sharp increase in domestic demand, especially the opening of phantom films, and the demand was amazing, far exceeding the current output of the pit, which is being supported by the inventory accumulated before.

"Lord Hui, now there are 1,228 kobolds in Trap Town, all of whom have opened their spell-like abilities, including eight dragonized kobolds, one hundred and twenty-one dragon-blooded kobolds, and the average monthly output of spirit crystals has reached eighty kilograms.

We are in the process of refining and improving the mining process, and if successful, the production is expected to exceed 100 kilograms per month. "As the most knowledgeable of the kobolds, Susie's role has changed the fastest.

Now it is not only the dragon oak leader kobold dragon hunting ritual shaman, but also the first strongest, the professional level is like riding a rocket, now it has thirteen professional levels, just half a year, five levels in a row, and there is still the potential to continue to soar.

This is one of the invisible benefits of frequently presiding over large-scale dragon hunting ceremonies, and those kobolds who open the power of the bloodline are considered to be influenced by her.

Different from the Heijing Iron Mine, the Lingjing Mine is a technical mine, which requires a relatively high ability of kobolds.

So, all the way to the elite route, in the end, ordinary kobolds were all expelled and completely composed of kobolds who opened spell-like abilities.

The disadvantage is that it is easy to be limited in quantity.

"Good." Gavin gave a simple compliment, then asked, "What about the mayoral candidates?" ”

"This is, Bill, a sixth-level trap maker, a red bronze dragon dragon-turned kobold, in the past some time, he has been assisting me in managing Trap Town, and he is already familiar with all the affairs in the town, some time ago, when the lord transferred me to the land of three rivers, he has been in charge of managing Trap Town."

"Bill has seen Lord Lord." A strong male kobold bows to Gavin.

"From now on, you step down from the position of mayor of Trap Town, hand it over to Bill, and then transfer three hundred kobolds from Trap Town proportionally to form the Trap Legion." Gavin made a strategic adjustment to the Trap Tribe.

"Yes." Susie and Bill got up at the same time to answer the call.

"Zach, you're over there." Gavin's gaze fell on Mayor Heijing.

Heijing Town is the largest window to the outside world as the Dragon Oak Collar, and it is also a pillar industry, which will not change in a short period of time.

"There are currently 15,000 kobolds in Heijing Town, of which 10,000 are professional miners, engaged in underground iron mining, 2,000 are full-time logistics service workers, and the remaining 3,000 are militia guards, who are engaged in hunting, farming, picking and road paving maintenance on the ground in addition to garrison work.

In addition, 80 initiation trees assisted in the ore transshipment work.

At present, the monthly output of Heijing Iron Mine has reached 15,000 tons, and the sales and output are basically the same, with a net profit of 150,000 gold coins per month. Zach summarized the detailed data of the town of Blackwell.

"Transfer 3,000 novices from Eagle Cliff Town, replenish the miners' team, and then replace the 3,000 kobold miners to form a special road repair team, focusing on paving the high roads in the rocky field, doubling the original foundation, and at least four horse-drawn carriages in parallel.

Cangya drew a thousand kobold ferocious weasel cavalry from the militia to form the Cangya Cavalry Regiment. Gavin also made a strategic adjustment to the town of Blackwell.

Money is earned and spent, not like a dragon to watch there, and for a mountainous area like the rocks, the road is the most important thing.

Only when the road is smooth enough, can goods enter and exit conveniently, and troops can be quickly assembled and deployed.

The previous road construction was all a small fight, but as the output of the Black Well Iron Mine continued to rise, the value created was getting bigger and bigger, and the Cormier Kingdom paid more and more attention to this side, and more and more Zilong patrols were stationed in.

They can speed up appropriately, this kind of thing, even with the Cormir Kingdom does not need to negotiate.

Long Oak Leader repairs the road at his own expense, and the other party likes to hear it, not only will he not stop it, but he will also send troops to protect it, and whoever messes up will have to face the wrath of the Purple Dragon Patrol.

As for the issue of the ferocious Weasel mount, which had plagued Gavin for a long time, it was no longer a problem at all after establishing close relationships with many natural races.

Under the conscious introduction, a large number of weasel nests have appeared in the rocks, as many as seven or eight varieties, most of which are suitable for kobolds, and they are gradually becoming wild hunters in the rocks, and the wild wolves have been driven out by them.

"Yes." Zach and Cangya stood up at the same time to answer the order.

"Buck, over there." Gavin's gaze finally fell on the mayor of Eagle Cliff.

It's not that Eagle Cliff Town is not important, the main thing is that he lacks pillar industries on his side, and now he is more of a reserve force, specializing in internal construction.

Originally, it was also used as an important transit station along with the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, but now even this function is temporarily lost.

Gavin has been trying to develop other benefits for this kobold town, but there has been no good direction.

Because the main advantages of kobolds are concentrated in mining and paving roads.

Let them farm, it is definitely not as good as humans with tens of thousands of years of farming history, and even less as good as those who are born with druid abilities.

Let them engage in textiles and the like, then it is proper to embarrass them, and the result is half the effort.

After thinking about it, this can only be used as a general training base for kobolds, where initial personnel training and screening are carried out, and then labor is sent to the other two towns.

Buck got up and replied, "At present, there are 20,000 kobolds in Eagle Cliff Town, of which 8,000 belong to young kobolds, and Odo has a total of 800.

At present, it mainly focuses on the construction of Yingya Town, the development and paving of Yinggaoshan Road and the preliminary construction of the military town.

Nishizawa has been assisting me as the reserve mayor of Eagle Cliff for some time, and he knows the situation here very well. ”

After finishing speaking, he looked at Gavin with an expectant look, and made appropriate adjustments on the side of the trap and the black well, and formed an army of kobolds, indicating that the lord is likely to have a big military move.

There is no reason why they have transferred people to form an army, and Ode, as an air force, does not form an army.

Rather than being a busy manager, Buck felt he was better suited as an air combat commander.

"On the side of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, there will be five thousand kobolds who will be transferred back, except for the three thousand who are transferred to Heijing Town, the remaining two thousand will be evenly distributed to the construction team of Eagle Cliff Town.

You hand over the work with Nishizawa, and transfer 300 Ode's elites to form the Ode's Air Corps. "Gavin did as Buck wished, and made adjustments to Eagle Cliff.

"Yes." Buck and Nishizawa stood up at the same time to answer the call.

"You have five days to prepare, and after five days, you will set out with the soldiers of Yaling to Tesser, and settle in the new city I have developed over there, Mesnoel, where you will need to develop new towns." Gavin issued the final order.

They didn't come to support the Land of the Three Rivers, but as a seed, they went to Misnoel.

The two places were too far apart for Gavin to muster a large number of kobolds from the rocks, and there was no need.

Wherever there are mountains, there is no shortage of kobolds.

And there is no shortage of mountains around Tessel, especially the marching mountains that are backed by Misnoel.

It's nothing more than using the rocky set on the kobold who travels through the mountains.

Gavin now has more than he did when he first came to The Rock, as he has kobolds, dragons, and more than one - the bipedal wyvern that Shanoba transforms into is also a dragon.

"Yes." All kobold leaders rose again to answer their orders.

"The news that the Dragon Oak portal will be closed for a period of time, you should all know, there is no fruit, melon, vegetables, and food problems shipped from there, how are you going to solve it?" The advantage of Gavin being the shopkeeper for a while is that he doesn't have to worry about trivial matters like the resident dragon oak collar.

He only needs to formulate a strategic policy, and many things are handed over to the kobold below to solve by themselves, although they bumped at first, but now they have their own set of operation modes, which are quite smooth.

Zack complimented him sincerely: "This matter, thanks to the foresight of the lord, the fruits and vegetables you took us to plant this spring have matured one after another, and the types and quantities we have planted are enough to meet our daily needs. ”

These kobolds have come from a hard life, so their thirst for food is beyond imagination, and if they have the opportunity to hoard food, they will definitely spare no effort.

Susie added on the side: "The food we need in summer is far less than the food in winter, and the kobold who has opened the dragon vein, dragon blood, and dragon transformation ability have a much lower food demand than ordinary kobolds, which is related to our racial characteristics, and the lord also knows that we are ectothermic creatures, and we can draw a part of the heat from the outside for the needs of the body, while the kobold who have turned on the spell-like ability can draw some power from the daily elemental magic, and what we need to do more is to stock up on a large amount of food for the winter, The colder the weather, the more food we need. ”

Gavin nodded with satisfaction, and said with a little revealing tone: "You only need to focus on the present, the winter food, you don't need to think about it, I will prepare it for you in the valley at that time, not to mention, we can also start with magic equipment to turn the environment of the town into the most suitable for your survival." ”

"It's still the lord's thoughtfulness." The kobold leaders praised one after another.

"Do you have any questions? Need my help? Gavin handed over the reins to the kobold leaders.

"I have here a letter addressed to the lord, and according to the merchant with the letter, it was a gnolling warrior monk who asked him to bring it to the lord." Zach handed Gavin a letter.

Gnoll warrior monk? Flynn?

Gavin only recognized one such existence, and that was the vengeful gnolll warrior monk who had assisted them in exterminating the black death of the Gnoll Warband.

He took the initiative to ask for his life and went to track down another culprit, Yenogu Fang.

At that time, he liked to be idle, so he agreed to his request.

It's just that it's been so long, and if he doesn't take the initiative to write to him, he will almost forget about his existence.

When I took the letter, it was him.

The content of the letter is very simple, that is, he lived up to his trust and successfully found the Yenogu fang, but this fang gave full play to its characteristics, and gathered a large number of jackals and jackals along the way to form a new warband.

Escaped all the way to the goblin borderland, colluded with a ghost woman assembly in the far sea swamp, and is causing trouble to the goblin borderland, and it won't be long before it may affect the high road.

Although Flynn did not say it explicitly in the letter, the meaning was obvious, that is, he wanted Gavin to send troops to destroy this rising evil force.

After thinking about it for a while, Gavin wrote a handwritten reply and said to Nishizawa, who had not yet fully taken office: "Mayor Nishizawa, you are responsible for organizing the remaining Od of Eagle Cliff Town into an aerial reconnaissance team, with the Dragon Oak Collar as the center to carry out reconnaissance, I will provide information on all settlements, villages and towns, strategic locations and other large-scale settlements along the way, all the way to the far-sea swamp on the edge of the goblins, try to find the gnoll warrior monk, and give him this letter." ”

"Yes." Nishizawa hurriedly took the letter, his expression unconcealed excitement.

Not only him, but other kobolds as well.

Behind this order of Lord Gavin, there is a profound meaning.

It shows that he is by no means satisfied with the current territory of the Dragon Oak Collar, although this is an inevitable thing.

But until Gavin does anything, speculation is speculation.

From this moment on, speculation ceases to be speculation.

After asking the same question several times, and all the kobold leaders said no, Gavin announced the dissolution of the impromptu meeting.

Due to the increased attention of the Cormier Kingdom to the rocks, the Purple Dragon Patrol began to fully intervene in the security patrol of the high road, and even the Santalin Society, which is a strong dragon, has to be restrained, not to mention those wild forces, they all have to be human with their tails between their legs.

Although Long Oak does not pay taxes, it has promoted the rapid development of Dongyandi commerce and trade, and then stimulated the development of the high road along the road.

After leaving the conference room, Gavin rarely got to take a spin over the dragon collar.

Just like Zach said, the seeds he planted at the beginning have begun to bear fruit, and the mountains are full of fruits and vegetables, although the good and the bad are mixed, but the kobold is not a picky eater, and he can eat it.

Not only can the kobold of the dragon oak collar live a comfortable summer, but even the other creatures in the rocky land can live a comfortable life and have a few more litters.

This can also be regarded as hoarding food in disguise, and in winter, it is just right to go to the kobold's stew pot.

Over the next five days, Gavin, Lord Virginia, and Veranika began their delivery journey using teleportation and the portable dimensional cave they had just acquired.

They can run eight times a day, and Lord Virginia and Villanica each have the ability to perform advanced teleportation four times a day.

When traveling from the rocks to Tesser, you must use a high-level teleportation technique.

However, upon return, using the Tower of Domination's spells to amplify the effect, teleportation can be used as a high-level teleportation spell.

It's a loss, otherwise, with the teleportation technique, they won't be able to run five round-trips.

Even so, counting the Virginia Lord's portable dimensional cave, in five days, they would only transfer half of the goods.

Teleportation is convenient, but it has significant limitations, especially when transporting bulky goods in large quantities.

This is still with the help of a portable dimensional hole that can be loaded with a half-heavy wagon for a performance, otherwise it would have taken longer.

Instead, this is a relative to the evil of the Vizeme Manor's ability to haul cargo in large quantities.

The remaining half of the goods, Gavin only took half a day, and dragged them all to the Vizeme manor, which was beyond imagination, which was related to the fact that they were full of corrupt power.

The immortal forces channeled by the Vizeme Manor directly transformed these corrupt forces into immortal forces, assisting in dragging, killing two birds with one stone.

This discovery immediately brought new inspiration to Gavin.

Excitedly, he entered the control center of the Tower of Domination and began a new experiment.
