Chapter 795: The skin of a woolly mammoth

The labor issue has been resolved!

The seized mining site from the Norma people immediately started operations. The Maya people joyfully rushed into the mines and began digging ore with great effort. However, at this time, the ship of the queen had not yet arrived. They were still anchored in the port city on the other side of the ocean.

The mined ore could only be piled up next to the mining site in this short period of time, as there was no means to transport them. Furthermore, the sugar promised by the queen had not been delivered, making it impossible to pay the promised wages. This was not conducive to establishing initial trust.

Therefore, Robb had to use his transmission gate to help the queen. He transported a large quantity of sugar to the mining site, which was also piled up there. For every amount of ore the Maya people brought out, they were given the agreed-upon quantity of white sugar as immediate payment. This established the initial level of trust.

With the trust established, the Maya people worked even harder.

A significant amount of mithril ore was excavated and piled up near the mining site, forming small mountains.

It was evident that the motivation of the Maya people when working was much higher than when they were enslaved by the Norma people. The queen once again learned that to increase productivity, it was not achieved through oppression but through motivation.

In summary, the small mining site had stabilized!

The next issue was the matter of the sea route. The queen passed through the transmission gate and returned to the port city. She immediately ordered the fleet of sailing ships to set sail towards the new continent and establish a small port near the mining site. This would facilitate the transportation of a large amount of white sugar there and, at the same time, bring back ship after ship of excavated mithril ore.

Of course, this undertaking would take time and could not be accomplished overnight. The fleet would be shuttling between the two continents, handling various cargo and engaging in construction work. It was a labor-intensive task that required a slow and steady approach.

The queen could not stay on the new continent indefinitely. Once arrangements were made, she returned to Bright Road to attend to her governance.

As for Robb, he stayed on the new continent!

To mine good ores, to find rare herbs, and to locate various strange materials, staying on the Fengmo Continent is not feasible. After thousands of years of development in the Fengmo Continent, they have already explored every corner. The chances of finding rare ores there are truly slim. On the contrary, the New Continent is like a blank canvas, just like a newly opened expansion pack in a game. Here, the probability of obtaining good ores is like a mining field. In the center of the mining field, a small church was built as Robb's temporary residence. Since the church was meant for Godfather to stay in, the masons worked diligently. They not only brought a lot of cement from the transmission gate to construct the entire house with cement, but also decorated it with colorful glass. Someone even suggested bringing in an organ, but Robb rejected their proposal. There was no need for an organ.CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m

The reason why Robb built his home in the form of a church was only for the "waypoint." He needed a church and a cemetery to activate a waypoint. For the convenience of future travels, he decided to turn his temporary home into this form. Anyway, it didn't matter.

The Maya woman couldn't understand what the two men were saying, and with no translator around, she looked at Robb anxiously, unsure if he would be willing to exchange food for her. Seeing Robb smiling while talking to Elsie, she felt slightly relieved and thought to herself, [He seems happy. He should give me a good amount of food, right?]

Just as she was thinking this, Elsie walked into the transmission gate...

After a while, Elsie came back, followed by a big soldier carrying a sack full of potatoes on his shoulder. He placed the sack in front of the woman.

The woman was overjoyed. "This sack of potatoes weighs at least 200 kilograms! You will give me so much food? Ah, that's fantastic! If my family eats five kilograms of potatoes every day, this food will last us at least a month."

However, just as she had this thought, another soldier came through the transmission gate, and with a thump, he dropped another large sack of potatoes in front of her.

"Huh? There's more?" The woman was astonished.

Then another soldier came, with another sack, and another...

In the blink of an eye, there were over ten large sacks of potatoes piled up in front of the woman, forming a small mountain.

The woman was completely bewildered and felt a bit disoriented.

Elsie, as a former bishop who used to preach everywhere, was very familiar with sign language. He smiled and gestured to her for a while, and the woman understood. "All of these are for you. In the future, when there are good things, you should bring them to us as well."

The woman looked at the mountain of potatoes in excitement, let out an excited scream, and then thumped to the ground, fainting.
