Beast Summoner

"Zhenbang, the dwarves are ahead, and that is the Iron Furnace Mountain where our dwarves live!" Xiao Keduo pointed at the towering mountains in the distance and shouted excitedly.

"Do you live on the mountain?" Li Zhenbang looked far into the distance. It was already lunch time, but there was no smoke rising from the foot of the mountain. Instead, thick smoke continued to rise from the entire mountain.

"Of course we don't live in the mountains anymore." Xiao Keduo shook his head.

"But I don't feel like I live at the foot of the mountain!" Li Zhenbang took a closer look and found that the thick smoke was indeed coming from the mountain, and there was no smoke rising from the foot of the mountain.

"We all live in the mountains." Xiao Keduo said with a smile.

"Is there any difference between living inside the mountain and living on the mountain?" Li Zhenbang looked at Xiao Keduo doubtfully.

"This is a big difference. We live in the mountains, not on the mountains." Xiao Keduo explained.

Li Zhenbang thought about it for a while, but still didn't understand. Isn't it the same inside the mountain as it is on the mountain?

"No, Lao Xiao, when I say living on the mountain, I don't mean living on the top of the mountain, or living in the mountain." Li Zhenbang thought Xiao Keduo didn't understand what he said, so he explained it again.

"Zhenbang, I know what you mean, but we do not live in the mountains, nor in the mountains, but in the mountains, inside!" Xiao Keduo emphasized.

"Inside?" Li Zhenbang frowned and thought again, and suddenly his eyes widened, "Do you mean that you all live in the mountains? Doesn't that mean you live in caves? You dwarves are not without

House to live in, right?”

"Uh... it's not a cave! Alas! Forget it, I can't explain it to you. You'll understand it when you arrive at Tielushan later!" Xiao Keduo shook his head and gave up explaining to Li Zhenbang. Anyway, he will soon

We are about to reach the dwarf tribe. When we get there, Li Zhenbang will definitely understand.

Li Zhenbang followed Xiao Keduo with doubts. It was only when he reached the foot of the mountain that he realized that what Xiao Keduo said about living in the mountains was indeed living in the mountains.

There is an extremely wide iron gate at the foot of Tielushan Mountain. Each of the iron nails on the iron gate is the size of a fist. Even a giant dragon can pass through here without any problem.

Although no one came or went at the gate, the large iron gate was not closed, but opened wide. There were several fully armed dwarf warriors standing at the door.

"Isn't your gate too grand? If these two large iron gates were used to make weapons and equipment, they would probably be enough to arm a heavy cavalry force of a thousand people." Li Zhenbang couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the large iron gate.

"This gate is very famous in the Muye Federation. It is called the best gate in the world, but to us, it is nothing!" Xiao Keduo waved his hand and said casually. But his expression was very

He was proud, obviously this big iron gate was something he was very proud of.

"You keep this big iron gate open all year round? Then what is the use of this big iron gate?" Li Zhenbang asked doubtfully.

"Alas! A layman is a layman! This No. 1 gate in the world is made of pure iron. This can not only be accomplished by relying on skills! This No. 1 gate in the world is not only a symbol of our dwarves' building strength, but also a symbol of our dwarves' strength.

The embodiment of clan wisdom!" Xiao Keduo explained.

"Indeed, I am afraid that only the dwarves can build such a gate!" Li Zhenbang nodded and sighed.

However, he didn't think so in his heart. Building such a gate had no practical effect except a waste of materials and energy. Even if it was built, it would be troublesome to use.

Seemingly sensing what Li Zhenbang was thinking, Xiao Keduo continued: "Although this gate is very heavy, it is extremely convenient to use. We control it through mechanisms, and it does not require any manpower to use it."

"Furthermore, the defense of the No. 1 Gate in the World is extremely strong, not inferior to those of rare precious metals. Once a war breaks out, even if the Fire Saint Mage launches a forbidden spell attack, there will be no way for ten or eight people to break through it."

"We usually don't open the main door. There is a small door under the main door. Everyone comes in and out from there. It will only be opened on some special days."

"Today is not a holiday. There must be a large amount of weapons and equipment coming out of the warehouse. It is not convenient to go through the small door, so the door was opened."

As if to confirm Xiao Keduo's words, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the gate, and trucks pulled by four high horses came out of the gate, each truck pulling a small mountain of horses.

Weapons or armor.

"Your business is really good!" Li Zhenbang said with some envy.

You can't blame Li Zhenbang for being jealous. The gold coins that can be exchanged for the weapons and equipment on this carriage can be piled up into a small mountain. You must know that these weapons and equipment are just conventional weapons and equipment.

If these weapons and equipment were replaced with higher-end ones, the mountain of gold coins might be higher than the weapons and equipment.

"Where is this? It's not the peak season for arms trading yet. When the peak season comes, there will be an endless stream of convoys transporting goods and gold coins every day." Xiao Keduo gestured excitedly.

"Don't you use crystal cards? Wouldn't it be too inconvenient to use gold coins for large transactions?" Li Zhenbang looked at Xiao Keduo in confusion.

"Of course, but crystal cards are usually used when going out. Gold coins are the hard currency among the dwarves." Xiao Ke raised his eyebrows.

"Why? How convenient is the crystal card?" Li Zhenbang asked puzzledly.

"Crystal card? It's convenient, but it's not safe." Xiao Keduo shook his head.

"Isn't it safe? I've been using it very well and haven't had any problems? Isn't it because you are too stubborn?" Li Zhenbang joked.

"Let me ask you! What is a crystal card?" Xiao Keduo asked.

"What else could it be? It's money!" Li Zhenbang said without thinking.

"Money? Huh! In the final analysis, it is just a tool, and it is a tool invented by you humans! Gold and silver have entered your pockets, and all you have given everyone is a card!"

"Once something changes in the human world, will the money in the crystal card still be money? No matter how the times change, no matter whether crystal cards or fire crystal cards are used in the future, gold coins will still be gold coins!" Xiao Keduo said solemnly.

Hearing Xiao Keduo's words, Li Zhenbang was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Xiao Keduo would have such an opinion.

Xiao Keduo has said it very tactfully. In fact, what Xiao Ke Duo means is that once there is a war or a change of people in the Carlo Empire, the crystal card will most likely become unusable, and the crystal card will become nothing.

The cards used, the wealth of the dwarves must not be placed in the hands of other countries.

Li Zhenbang nodded. He had always regarded the dwarves as a race. Now it seems that the dwarves are completely a country within a country and should be viewed from the perspective of a country.

"Let's go! I'll take you in and let you know what it means to live in the mountains!" Xiao Keduo patted Li Zhenbang, and then walked directly towards the door.

"Your Highness, you are back!" Seeing Xiao Keduo striding over, the dwarf guarding the door slapped his ax on his chest, lowered his head slightly, and greeted him respectfully.

"Old Dong, are you on duty today? Shall we have a drink together tonight?" Xiao Keduo patted the dwarf on the shoulder, obviously they were old acquaintances.

"Your Highness, I am still on duty tonight. I can't go." Old Dong's eyes lit up at first, and then he shook his head helplessly.

"Okay! This time I brought my brother back for a long experience!" Xiao Keduo said, putting his arm around Lao Dong's shoulders.

"Human? Brother?" Old Dong looked at Li Zhenbang and looked at Xiao Keduo doubtfully.

"His name is Li Zhenbang." Xiao Keduo said.

"Li Zhenbang? Is he the one who once brought people to help you, then treated you all to a meal, and gave you a big meal?" The old director looked at Li Zhenbang again, and then asked softly.

"Yes, that's him!" Xiao Keduo nodded.

Although Lao Dong and Xiao Keduo spoke in a relatively low voice, Li Zhenbang's ears were better. He could hear all the conversations between the two people.

Li Zhenbang looked at Lao Dong and Xiao Keduo in embarrassment. Both of them were talking about him, and they were talking about the time he invited a group of people to dinner, which made him feel like he was being cheated.

"It turns out to be brother Zhenbang! I have admired him for a long time! He is indeed a talented person!" Old Dong looked at Li Zhenbang, arched his hands towards Li Zhenbang, and said with a smile.

If it weren't for the fact that Old Dong's eyes were full of praise and recognition, Li Zhenbang would have suspected that Old Dong was openly mocking him for being a genius.

"What the hell, Brother Dong is so complimentary!" Li Zhenbang waved his hand, although he was a little embarrassed, he still responded politely.

"Brother Zhenbang, just like Dian...Lao Xiao, just call me Lao Dong!" Lao Dong said, hugging Xiao Keduo.

"That's right, Zhenbang, just call him Lao Dong. You don't know that since hearing about your deeds, Lao Dong has always said that he wants to meet you if he has the opportunity!" Xiao Keduo interrupted.

"See me? You don't want to see me and ask me to treat you to dinner? Hehe!" Li Zhenbang grinned.

"Looking at what you said, it seems like we are giving you a meal! We are interested in your character. Do you think we dwarves will be short of money to eat!" Xiao Keduo curled his lips.

"Are you kidding? Would I care about that little money? I'm just wondering, isn't it just to treat everyone to a meal? As for making it so unforgettable for you? It seems like I have done something great!" Li Zhenbang asked puzzledly.

road.

"Inviting dwarves to dinner is nothing, and inviting orcs to dinner is nothing. What is difficult is that you can treat everyone equally and treat everyone to dinner without discriminating against any vulnerable race. This is what we value!" Xiao Keduo said meaningfully.
