Chapter 186 184. The Arrival Guest and Ben Call's Secret

On the 15th, Rand received a group of special guests: former Longhorn tribesmen.

Neil in the front didn't wait for Rand's order to let the people of the Great Longhorn Tribe go to Yeqi City. Instead, on the second day after sending the messenger, which is March 3, he asked the Kiser Knight to take the people from the tribe with them. The Demonless and most Demonbearers headed east.

Since they carried all the iron ore and most of the pack animals, the team moved very slowly. They didn't settle at the west gate of Yeqi City until the night of the 15th.

Hearing that there are half-orcs, half-dwarves, and human knights in the Longhorn Tribe, Rand couldn't wait to meet the representative of this team: Kiser Knight.

"Thank you, my lord, for letting us regain our freedom. I am willing to pledge my allegiance to you and become your knight." Kiser expressed his loyalty the first time he met Rand, and then began to introduce the members of the Big Horn Tribe, the people west of Luoyue River in detail. Situations, Fox Maiden Faneuil Fox and all.

"I probably understand what you just said. I also want to know what is the relationship between the Longhorn tribe, the brown bear tribe, and the orcs?" Rand was most curious about the interaction between the barbarians and the brown bears.

"My lord, there is no clear relationship between the Longhorn Tribe and the Brown Bear Tribe. There is no affiliation or covenant between the two. It is just a usual business. The Brown Bears sell iron ore and rough iron ingots. After the Longhorn is purchased, it will be sold to those in the west of the plain. The forest cat tribe is one of the largest orc tribes in the Hindukel Valley."

There will also be other tribes who sell to the human race or the orc royal court. After selling the ore, they will buy food, magic supplies, and human specialties. Each tribe will sell to a fixed seller and then buy fixed goods. Every spring and autumn , There will be a market composed of some tribes in front of the brown bear camp, where they can exchange what they need. "

"Won't the brown bear tribe form an alliance to coordinate the merchants of small and medium tribes?" Rand was very curious about this kind of business alliance.

"No, I only know that the tribes on the east side of the Luoyue River will have them," Kiser shook his head, "but the tribes on the west side have never heard of it."

"But there will be a half-orc tribe in the west of the Luoyue River, right?"

"Indeed, there are not only half-orc tribes, but many barbarian tribes also have half-orcs," the knight kept recalling, "For example, like Xilena, other orc tribes wandered into the Longhorn tribe."

Kiser Knight has lived in Longhorn for several years, and knows the half-orcs and half-dwarves in the tribe very well: "Sawyaku and Xilena both wandered in the east of Luoyue River, and they also stayed in the brown bear tribe, yes Sensitive to other people's attitude"

"They all inspired the blood?"

"Yes, Xilena is an apprentice priest, Suoyaku is an apprentice runemaster, they are the best, and the others are ordinary demon possessors"

Lant was not in a hurry to meet the half-dwarves and half-orcs, but arranged for them to visit separately on the morning of the 16th. Kuryagan took Soyaku and other half-dwarves to visit the workshop, and Kay took the half-orc Xilena Waiting to visit the terrace of the magic workshop.

The visit was very effective. At noon, only Kuryagan and Kay came back to find Rand, saying that the half-dwarves and half-orcs were about to enter the working state, and they did not plan to have dinner with the lord.Lante didn't blame him, so he took Kiser's niece Xiaohua to find Zhenqin at noon, and asked Xiaohua to learn from Zhenqin in the future.

Judging from the letter sent by Neil, this kid is tempted. In this case, Rand can only let Xiaohua and Makoto get acquainted first, and handle the relationship well in the future.

. . .

On March 3, the shops, warehouses and workshop areas in the east of the city have been basically completed.

According to Rand's plan, three days later, Keryagan, the centaur girl and the earth goblin will take people to the heavy industrial zone 3 kilometers away for development.

"When I came back from the salt mine, I came directly to the industrial area to meet everyone." Rand decided to go to the salt mine first, and his decision made many people confused.

"Are you impatient to see Wendy?" Kay's eyes widened, full of gossiping expressions.

"I want to see the situation of the salt mine and coal mine for myself, and I will probably live there for a day"

"My lord, if you really want to see the coal mines, why don't you go when Master Ben Call is around?" Kay approached Rand and whispered.

"As long as you know a lot, learn more from Master Ben." Rand really wanted to avoid Ben, but not because of Wendy.

"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him for you." The centaur girl nodded and made a "I understand" expression.

Kay thought that Rand was going to the salt mine to find Wendy, but the bigger reason why Rand went to the salt mine was to find the earth-type magic goblin, so Rand really had to separate himself from Ben Kaur.

Ever since Rand saw the record of the magic goblin in his reading room, he wanted to go to the salt mine, but the various situations in the salt mine and Yeqi City made him unable to get away, and the matter was delayed. On the 16th.

After saying goodbye to his subordinates, Rand rode on Agni, and after two post stations in the morning, the black scaled horse, which changed stations in the afternoon, arrived at the salt mine camp.

"My lord? Why are you here?" Ranter's arrival surprised Wendy and Lili, and Ranter didn't even mention this matter in yesterday's express delivery.

"The matter over there in Yeqi City can come to an end. The following is a heavy industrial area 20 kilometers away from the east of the city. Before that, I want to come over and have a look. There is something I want to confirm for myself." Lante is very fond of the girls rest assured.

"My lord, you don't know, we both have had a hard time here." Seeing Wendy grumbling, Lili was embarrassed to come forward, so she leaned in front of Rand to complain, "I didn't feel that way when I was outside the salt mine. , now that you're gone, you feel like you didn't eat well, and you didn't sleep well..."

"Lili! My lord is here to talk about business!" Although Wendy agreed with Lili's words very much, she didn't think that Rand came in person to listen to their grievances. "My lord, I've always wanted to tell you that Ben Kaul has frequently used that emergency communication room alone these days, and sneaked past several times."

"Well, I see." Rand was not surprised that Ben had his own secrets, "This mage comes from a legendary family in the imperial capital, and he still advocated a light diet during his wandering days, and regarded the legendary guidance as commonplace." , isn't it normal for him to use the communication room to contact his family?"

"Aren't you afraid that he will betray the secret here?"

"This used to be the official salt mine of the Empire's Salt and Iron Division," Rand was very clear about his predicament. The Legendary family couldn't afford to send someone to spy on them for their own sake. up.

"For me, the most precious thing is you, whether it's a knight or a magician." What Rant wanted to say in his heart was that his most precious thing was his subordinates, but Ben Kaur didn't think much of his subordinates at all.

"Oh, I see, Wendy and I are what you value most." Lili boldly misinterpreted Rand's words,
