The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 208 Mineral Veins (please subscribe, third update)

The sudden reunion and the fleeting parting soon faded away with the passage of time, and the people of Green Lake Village resumed their ordinary lives.

The population of Green Lake Village expanded again. After adding the Roland tribe as an income group, the population of the Green Field tribe suddenly increased to 200 people; and if the number of lizard people, trolls and hobgoblin slaves were added, The entire population of the Green Field Tribe has exceeded people.

Naturally, the newly joined slaves will not work very efficiently. Even if A Xiao, as a supervisor, imposes severe penalties on lazy slaves, it will not prevent these slaves from working slowly. However, no matter how lazy slaves are, they will naturally not be able to do too little when their numbers increase. In addition to the original 500 acres of land on the edge of Green Lake, more than 200 acres of land have been reclaimed at the same time. If they grow food, they can feed them. There’s nothing wrong with trying.

Allen has nothing to do these days except for the unshakable exercise in the morning. He is taking Saru and accompanying the two gray dwarves Manduli and Shalihua to wander in the wilderness, looking for traces of the existence of mineral veins.

The places close to Green Lake have basically been surveyed by Manduli and the others. Every time they find a suspicious location, the workload of digging more than ten meters is not an easy task for the people of Green Lake Village. Therefore, Every time a goblin gets these tasks, there will always be a gloomy look on his face. But recently, they didn't dare to put unhappy expressions on their faces at all, just because Allen was staring at them.

"If we go further, it seems like we are your original hometown, right?"

Today, there was Pavao, a hobgoblin who had surrendered, in the team. Allen saw the somewhat familiar hilly environment and spoke with emotion.

"Yes."

Pavao also had mixed feelings. The days when he once lived in Auror Hills seemed like countless years ago. Although he is no longer the leader of a tribe, his status in Green Lake Village has gradually become more stable, and he has become a member of the hunting team without hesitation. The boss, after all, the strength of his level 8 warrior is in front of him, and he is considered top-notch among the Green Lake Village warriors.

This place is already quite far away from Green Lake Village. The journey of nearly a hundred miles would take almost a whole day to go back and forth depending on the footsteps of the warriors in the clan. The gray dwarves were looking for signs of mineral veins here, but Allen felt that if there was no harvest at the Auror Hills, he asked the gray dwarves to search in another direction.

If the journey is too far, even if a mineral vein is found, it may not be able to be developed. After all, the Green Field Tribe is not strong enough to open a special mine outside and send a large number of tribesmen to garrison it.

"Chief, I think this hilly area should contain the minerals we are looking for."

Manduli came over with a flattering smile, holding a stone with slight yellow traces in his hand, and presented the treasure to Allen.

The character of the gray dwarves is completely different from the stubborn dwarves that Allen has heard of. Whenever the two gray dwarves, Manduli and Shalihua, came into Allen's hands, they showed their surrender to Allen without even beating them. It seems very sincere.

But in fact, not only do they not like cleanliness very much, but they are also very lazy. Their sneaky and slippery character is exactly the same as that of bugbears, which makes Camellia a headache when they manage them. They dare not punish them too much and seriously hurt these two. This guy was a treasure in Allen's eyes, but he really couldn't stand the fact that they were so lazy that they even pooped and peed in the room assigned to them. When they opened the door inside, they smelled like feces and urine.

But as long as Allen is present, the two guys are very well-behaved and their movements become agile, as if their previous laziness was just an illusion. After half a year of hard work, no mineral vein was found. I have to say that this was related to the lazy character of the two gray dwarves in Manduli.

"Okay, as long as we can find the ore, I'll ask Camellia to give you extra food when we get back. I'll give you whatever you want."

Allen was shocked. He picked up this piece of equipment, which seemed to him to be nothing surprising, and looked at it. He did not forget to make a promise.

"Is it okay to steam lake fish?"

Sha Lihua leaned over with a face with some downy chin, and now she started to put forward conditions. "sure!!"

Allen nodded on the spot, which immediately made Manduli and Shalihua more ambitious. They began to call on the following goblins to take action, and started digging at a mountain wall they instructed.

Manduli and Saliwa did not come from the same place, but their experiences were similar. They both could not stand the cruel and cruel rule of the dark elves, so they escaped from the underground and came to the surface world to be captured by the slave team. When they were underground, they almost never ate fish. When they came to the Green Field Tribe and ate fish for the first time, their taste buds were controlled by the delicious fish.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The goblin warriors swung their big hammers and hit them hard again and again according to the direction of the stone textures detected by Manduli. The originally smooth mountain wall quickly turned into pits as the stone fragments flew around. Finally, under Allen's As he watched, a line suddenly cracked from top to bottom, and then a large piece of rock weighing hundreds of pounds fell from the mountain wall. When it hit the ground, a group of goblins scattered in panic.

In the smashed mountain wall, the yellow texture became darker and darker, and it looked like a moving scene in the eyes of Manduli and the others. Manduli and Sha Lihua were almost lying on the fallen rocks, holding a delicate small hammer in their hands, tapping between the lines. The rocks peeled off obediently along the yellow lines, and finally only remained That piece of light yellow stone.

"I think this is a lump of pyrite."

Manduli took the stone piece and analyzed it slowly, but Sha Lihua, who looked nothing like a female next to him, had a different opinion: "Why do I think this should be a piece of gold ore?"

"You know what the heck, if it were a gold mine, the weight of this ore would be lighter."

Manduli spat out, almost spitting on Sha Lihua's face. Manduli rarely showed a serious attitude towards the ore issue.

"Are you trying to fool me into not understanding minerals? Can you tell the difference in weight between gold ore and pyrite just by weighing it?"

Sha Lihua was also unconvinced and retorted on the spot. Although she was only a female, she still had a lot of experience in identifying mines despite her title as a gray dwarf.

"Let's make a bet. If it's the gold mine you're talking about, I'll give you this piece of flesh. But if it's the pyrite I'm talking about, you will warm my bed from now on!"

Manduli seemed very angry, but in fact his eyes were filled with cunning. He patted his chest and wanted to make a bet with Sha Lihua.

"Bah!! That little body of yours is worth a fortune. I don't even give it to you, but you still pay it to me!"

They were all people who came out of the ground, and no one was stupider than the other. Sha Lihua naturally did not fall into the trap, and sprayed spit on Manduli's face, making him a little embarrassed.

"Okay!!! I don't care what kind of mine this is, you have to give me an accurate fact, is this vein worth digging!!"

Allen's face sank. He had just given these two guys a bright smile, but they were just doing this to him, and they stopped thinking about their own business. Of course, Allen is very happy in his heart. If it is confirmed that the veins here are rich in mineral resources, whether it is pyrite or gold, this is something Allen can accept.
