Chapter 34: The Goblin Clan
The price of fine gold is extremely expensive, and the conditions for its production are also extremely harsh. Under normal circumstances, it can only be produced in super-large iron mines. It is only possible, not certain. Thor did not expect what he just said. There is a possibility of fine gold being born in this large iron mine that was captured.
After being stunned, I couldn't help but feel a touch of surprise.
I don’t even have the intention to pay attention to the content of Article 5.
It's just that he didn't pay attention to it.
Soon Steve came running over.
"grown ups!"
Steve's respectful voice sounded, with an expression that couldn't help but surprise.
"what happened?"
Looking at Steve who was looking happy, Thor looked a little confused and looked away from the daily information.
“Sir, we have discovered a group of goblins.”
Steve couldn't help but pursed his lips. At this moment, he only felt that his lips were a little dry. It was difficult to conceal the excitement and joy in his heart.
"What?"
“You’re serious.”
Thor, who didn't pay too much attention at first, couldn't help but stand up when he heard Steve's words, and the words couldn't help but blurt out.
“Sir, it’s true!”
“You follow me!”
Steve nodded heavily and spoke again.
"good!"
“Let’s go and have a look!”
Thor spoke quickly, and at this moment he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Goblin, that’s a gnome.
Goblins are also the lowest existence among orcs. They also belong to the Goblin race in a strict sense, but they are different from Goblins. They were once slaves of giants and were forced to mine Kaja ore for a long time. However, unlike Kaja, Long exposure to the ore has made the goblin race surprisingly intelligent, and they have created artifacts of engineering and alchemy that are renowned throughout the world.
The development of human alchemy was originally learned from goblins, and even the alchemy of humans up to now cannot compare with that of goblins.
Each goblin is a natural craftsman and weaponsmith.
Thor had no idea that compared to the sixth item, the real harvest of the daily intelligence this time would be the unexpected surprise of the fifth item.
Especially when he came to the depths of the cave and saw the strange creature with blue skin that looked very similar to the goblin, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
The value of a large iron mine is unimaginable.
Even if mithril iron and fine gold are not taken into account, the output of large-scale iron mines alone is extremely valuable.
Selling iron ore and making them into black iron armor for sale are completely different things.
Although he has established trade channels with Lajos Assad, this kind of large-scale raw material transaction can easily cause problems. The best way is to sell to the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce, but the price of iron ore is in Kazakhstan. Under the suppression of the Booth Chamber of Commerce, the price is not too high, it can even be said to be low, and it will definitely cost a lot of money.
His original consideration was to see if he could purchase some blacksmiths from the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce.
Perhaps he relies on his past life memories to tinker with it.
But the cost of the former is probably not small. The price of prospecting talents in the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce is prohibitively high, and the price of blacksmith will only be higher.
As for the latter.
Although they are both iron mines, the two worlds are really different.
The basic rules are different.
He really may not be able to come up with anything.
But at this moment, these problems are no longer a problem.
Goblin, there is no blacksmith more suitable than a goblin.
They can not only make black iron armor, they can even make silver armor.
Even golden armor may not be impossible.
“Respect the knight, we can work for you, please don’t kill us.”
An older goblin stood up, saluted Thor, and spoke with an uneasy expression.
At this moment, these goblins couldn't help but feel extremely nervous.
They were captured by the Cowardly Goblin before. Forcing them to build weapons.
I didn’t expect that it would not take long.
Those cowardly goblins were actually killed by humans.
They want to escape.
But the heavy chains on their feet made it impossible for them to escape.
Subsequently, he was blocked in the crypt by humans.
This makes them full of anxiety.
I am afraid that I will be killed as a goblin.
After all, they goblins are also goblins.
"Can!"
“I can guarantee your survival, and even give you food and survival, but you also need to work for me.”
“Well, how about thirty years?”
“You can work for me for thirty years, and after thirty years, I will allow you to be free.”
Thor's heart moved, and he immediately looked at the older goblin at the head, and spoke slowly.
Compared to ordinary goblins, Thor was naturally prepared to stay as a useful orc like a goblin.
The best way is to use a slave contract, but considering that making weapons is still very important, to avoid any accidents, it is better to be relatively gentle.
As for thirty years.
Thor believed that after living in the Eagle Territory for a period of time, these goblins might not be willing to leave their stable and peaceful environment.
After all, compared to human territory, the Northland is extremely chaotic.
They goblins are slaves almost everywhere they go.
Even timid goblins can capture them.
There is no need to say more about other orcs.
Not to mention the ferocious monsters.
Comparatively, it is the best for these goblins to fall into the hands of humans.
Most goblins are actually willing to work for humans.
So hear the words of Thor.
The elderly goblin was delighted.
“Dear knight, your kindness must be blessed by the Goblin God.”
“I, Assachi, am willing to work for you!”
The older goblin quickly bowed with a humble expression.
"The right choice!"
Thor smiled and nodded.
For him, this was undoubtedly an unexpected surprise.
And it was a big surprise.
Although the number of goblins is not large, there are still more than a dozen.
It is enough to meet his initial construction needs.
More importantly, these dozen goblins are enough for him to forge a large amount of iron ore into black iron armor, and it is also high-quality black iron armor.
At that time, these high-quality black iron armors will be sold through the trade route established by Lajos Assad, and their value will definitely not be low.
His entire territory will also truly have a complete economic industry chain.
It is no longer difficult to make ends meet as before.
There will even be a large part of the income, which can further increase the construction of the territory and form a virtuous cycle.
It can be said that at this moment, even Thor had never considered before that the surprise of winning this large iron mine would be so huge.
