Before ascending to God, be a good lord

Chapter 154. The Magic Stove and the Magic Goblin

"Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..." The two wings fluttered desperately, and the elf flew up and down in the room full of magic circles emitting light.

Lante was very happy that the magic goblin had regained his spirits, but Ben didn't care much about it, and even left the magic furnace room directly.

"She said she felt much better, and said that a Fairy Queen once visited here," Wendy acted as an interpreter.

Afterwards, the little goblin flew around the side of the magic stove, gesticulating constantly.

"She said that the stove is connected to the magic net, like a bottomless pit, she dare not get too close." Wendy kept translating, but her face was full of worry.Like a mother watching her child walk a tightrope.

"Isn't she the will incarnation of the magic net?" Lante was a little puzzled, "Why are you still afraid?".

"I don't know about this either. I only know that she is very afraid of this stove. She said that if she gets too close, she will be sucked in."

Hearing this, Lante naturally couldn't let Wendy and the magic goblin stay longer, so he could only take them out of the cave and take a look around.

The only result that Rand obtained on this day was that in the salt mine, the most suitable jobs for Wendy and the magic goblin were construction work such as leveling the land and hardening the road, and it was the most cost-effective for all production work to be done by humans.

In the afternoon, Rand took Ben and Wendy to the coal mine in the north of the salt mine. It was empty a few months ago, and now it is covered with snow.

In order to ensure the safety of the salt mine, Rand organized staff to seal a narrow mountain pass north of the salt mine with gravel, but now it has also been cleared by the earth goblin.

The coal mine is under the mountain, and the entrance is also a cave. In the cave, there are 5 and 6-story dormitories similar to the salt mine cave. The real coal mining entrance is located in a special mine, and the entrance is narrow, narrow and dark.

In the mine, the three of them had to rely on Wendy's lighting stick to move forward. The sides of the mine were dark, and there were stone frames every ten meters. After walking about a few hundred meters, the height of the mine was already Very low, just enough for a non-magic to bend over.

"Can you take a look at what needs to be done to restore the coal mine?" Rand asked Ben as he walked. In his opinion, the conditions here are not bad. At least there are two simple tracks on the ground to drive mine cars.

"This is too difficult. Has this mine been found without a magic furnace room?" Rand walked behind Ben, and he couldn't see his current expression, but his tone was very embarrassing. "It may be that there are other magic devices in this one, and it depends on the consumption of coal; it may also be that the coal mine and the salt mine used a set of magic furnaces."

"So if you want to rebuild here, you need to build a new magic furnace?" Lante was a little unwilling.

"Magic furnace? The beauty you imagined. Human beings have been unable to make it for thousands of years. You said it was made?" Ben jokingly said, "There are probably some magic circles, which can be operated by burning coal after repairing."

"That's powerful enough." In Rand's eyes, this is also a tool for energy conversion.

"If you find a legend, you can definitely create one."

"This..." Rand was speechless. If I really found a legend, what would I do?
"Isn't this a coal mine? You can just find someone to dig coal. Everyone brings a magic lighting tool. Why do you have to restore the functions of the dormitory above?" Ben felt Rand's embarrassment and ordered him.

Rand thought of the ancient coal mines in his hometown. Everyone could only crawl into them and rely on kerosene lamps for lighting. There was a danger of mine accidents at any time.Every citizen is very precious to him now, and if he wants to mine coal, he needs a more secure method.

During dinner in the evening, Rand threw out a plan to build a salt mine, and decided to let Wendy and the goblin temporarily station in the salt mine, renovate the salt mine workshop and the ground, and then level the ground from the coal mine to the salt mine. , and then to the road outside the salt mine, and then remodeled the camp outside, raising the low wall of the entire camp from less than 2 meters to about 3 meters.

After completing the project near the salt mine, harden the road all the way back to Yeqi City.

Hearing Rant's thoughts, Ben Kaul was very shocked, "Are you going to let Wendy stay here for a year?"

"My idea is, you and Wendy are here to check the project volume first. If it takes too long, I'll ask Kay to bring another magic goblin to replace her."

For Rand, he also felt a little bit unbearable, but there was nothing he could do now. The biggest income in his territory was the salt mine, and he had to ensure a smooth road from the salt mine to Yeqi City.

"My lord, I'll just stay here, but can I have Lili or Yinghuo come and accompany me?" Wendy agreed to Rant without hesitation, which made Rant feel a little guilty, and naturally agreed to her proposal .

In the end, Lanter also hoped that Ben could add a magic mirror to communicate with Roth Castle in the emergency communication room. Ben Kaur agreed, claiming that he would be able to connect to Roth tomorrow.

"My lord? Can I come in?" At 8:00 in the evening, Wendy arrived outside Rand's tent, hoping to say goodbye to him.

"Of course, please come in." Seeing Wendy come in, Rand couldn't bear it, "I will send someone to Yeqi City tomorrow to deliver a message, Lili will come in my carriage, and I will leave the carriage to you first."

"That's your carriage..."

"It doesn't matter, the weather is still cold, don't freeze." Rant really valued Wendy and the others very much, and felt that it would be unbearable for her to be left alone. "You have to learn from Ben Caldor, he is a very knowledgeable and insightful mage."

"Yes, my lord." Wendy looked at Rand, but didn't say some words when she came to her lips. "My lord, you leave early tomorrow morning, I'm afraid it's too late to say goodbye to you, can I hug you now?"

"certainly"

. . . .

At 14 o'clock in the evening on the 9th, Pete finally arrived at the camp with the knights and transport team. Because of the snow on the road, they were 1 or 2 days later than expected.

"My lord, the road is too difficult. I'm afraid I won't be able to go back in 10 days." When he saw Rand, Pete Maned Wolf vomited bitterly.

Rand listened to Pete's complaints with a smile, but felt that he was a bit ashamed of himself in front of Ben.

"You try to return to Yeqi City before the end of the month," because Rand has announced that at least half of the population will be relocated to Yeqi City in early March. together.

"Yes, my lord, this batch of salt must arrive at the end of the month. I know that our caravan will go to the capital again in March, so that we can make time for the salt mine to resume production."

"Very good, your batch of salt is quite critical, and there is no room for loss." Rand's last salt shipment failed to transport all the salt for two seasons to Roth, and only transported one and a half seasons of salt. With the credit and orders, the remaining salt must be shipped to Wangdu in March.

Fortunately, although Pete Maned Wolf was a little lazy, he could still tell the difference between the serious and the serious, which made Rand feel more at ease.
