If I let you farm, will you become the emperor of the empire?
Chapter 246 The enemy of my enemy is my friend
boom! !
Thunderous explosions resounded throughout the valley.
Wow!
The hard solid rock splits into many stones of different sizes due to violent vibrations and shock wave reflection.
Parts of the rock came down like a landslide.
Wait until the smoke clears and the aftermath disappears.
The miners swarmed up to the rubble pile, broke the larger rock gold into small pieces, and put them into their backpacks.
Each backpack can hold nearly a hundred kilograms of rock gold on average, and can carry three thousand kilograms of rock gold in a day.
The basket-carrying workers carry the rock gold to the processing plant. After crushing, grinding, selecting, smelting and other steps, they can obtain a gold brick of higher purity.
As for the metallurgical process, it all depends on the experience of the goldsmith.
Roman was watching over the whole process, so there wouldn't be any big problems.
He has been here for more than a month. During this period, he conducted five test explosions, exploding a total of more than 10,000 tons of rock gold.
That sounds like a lot.
But it was a small gap about a hundred meters long, twenty meters wide, and two to three meters thick. Roman had blasted it along the mineral veins.
For a mine, it's basically just peeling off a layer of skin.
This kind of rock, which is very hard but brittle, cannot withstand the blasting impact of black powder.
The metallurgical process is still a bit rusty in comparison.
Mining gold mines not only yields gold, but also various accompanying organisms.
The dusty crystal ball that Roman attaches great importance to can also be counted.
Maybe gold mines are relatively scarce in nature, so the probability of crystal balls appearing has increased a lot.
It is full of high-quality resources such as rubies, jade, and diamonds.
In the final analysis, it comes down to one sentence——
Explode the mine! Cool!
…
Refreshment returns to refreshment.
The output of metallurgy is far from enough to meet Roman's needs.
After all, this is just the beginning.
Therefore, he increased the labor force and increased gold production.
Later, a thousand families were divided from the Origin City.
Try to build a town next to this gold mine as soon as possible.
As long as this gold mine can still be mined, they will always live here.
These people are not farmers, they are paid.
This kind of gold miner is paid five copper coins every month, and even if he dies, he will receive a high compensation - there is no such thing as death in mining.
But if you die, you will die, and there is nothing you can do about it.
We can only establish rules and regulations and standardize production processes to reduce the probability of accidents as much as possible.
Roman's side also regularly delivers various daily necessities. Just like Coal and Iron Town, it does not engage in agricultural production and relies entirely on Origin City's supply.
Of course, this place is not completely sealed.
They have four days of leisure time every month, and they can go to Origin City to buy some things.
What they get is a drop in the bucket compared to the value of their production.
So Roman didn't hesitate to give out money.
However, the increase in resources also comes with troubles.
If he wants to pass on the complete knowledge and skills of blasting, mining, metallurgy, etc., he cannot just pass it on to one person.
If the knowledge is too big and too advanced, it will be too much to bear.
For management talents in this position, each person is responsible for one position, and it would be better to teach them in stages.
But it's not the blue gem that's limiting Roman at this moment.
On the contrary, there is a lack of potential apostles.
An apostle in his forties or fifties, and an apostle in his early twenties.
The former just has no potential.
Of course, if Roman was given another smart apostle who was nearly fifteen or sixteen years old, both the former and the latter would have no potential.
I am afraid of being compared in everything.
Therefore, Roman began to prepare for the seventh recruitment.
Provide as many options as possible.
For this seventh recruitment, Roman will directly recruit five hundred apostles.
Now, no more than before, you have to rely on signing in to accumulate resources.
Now directly exchange magic stones for card drawing resources.
Bricks fly with great force!
When I get the bucket down, there must be a few grains of gold.
Just when Roman was preparing for this.
He got a piece of news.
Someone asked to see the King of the River Valley in the City of Origin.
There is something special about the visitor.
Seth couldn't make up his mind and had no choice but to inform Roman.
After Roman learned about this, he didn't waste any time and set off directly back to Origin City.
…
the next day.
After a night's rest, Roman met the seeker.
It's the guy nicknamed Scarhead.
From the beginning to the end of the pirate conference, to the pirate king's massive invasion of land.
Roman hadn't seen this former pirate-turned-slave trader for more than a year.
Although they didn't meet a few times in total.
As soon as Scarhead entered the manor hall, he said to Roman with a flattering face: "Lord Roman...ah, no, you should be called the King of the River Valley now."
Roman sat on the chair with his fingers crossed and placed on his abdomen.
He raised his chin slightly, arrogantly and scornfully, and said calmly: "Since you see the king, why don't you bow to me?"
Scar Tou was slightly stunned, thinking back to when they were chatting and laughing.
After many days, things are different now.
He remained a humble slave trader while the latter ascended to the throne.
The family members were devastated.
Scarhead was stunned again and again. After thinking about it, he still knelt down on one knee and said, "Greetings to you, Your Highness, the King of the Valley."
"Yeah." A faint nasal voice sounded.
Scarhead felt quite uncomfortable, but since he got the response, he still stood up and said.
"I'm here to give you a big deal!"
Seth had already made the specific details clear to him, but to start negotiations, both parties still had to talk about it in person.
Roman said: "Tell me."
"Your favorite slave business." Scarhead showed his yellow teeth, "What do you think?"
Roman said. "I gained a lot of people last year. You should have heard that my need for slaves is no longer in short supply..."
Scarhead's heart sank.
Then I heard Roman say: "So, how many people are you going to send to me this time?"
His mood could be said to have changed a thousand times, and he didn't want to try to be polite, so he directly stretched out five fingers, four on his right hand and one on his left hand.
"Five figures of slaves!" Scarhead waited expectantly for the King of the River Valley's response.
Roman was silent for a moment and said: "What do you want? Do you want some salt? I can give you a hundred times the salt."
"No, no, no! You misunderstood," Scar Tou waved his hand first, and then said cautiously,
"I'm not here for salt this time... In fact, I'm here to cooperate with you on behalf of Pirate King Alex..."
"Humph, Pirate King Alex? You are quite brave." Roman snorted.
cooperate?
Do you know who I am?
Lord Conqueror!
Hands of war!
Strike hard!
Any evildoers will be brought to justice!
Hanging the messenger of the Pirate King here would not make him worthy of these titles.
Of course, Roman felt that Scar Tou was not a serious messenger of the Pirate King, and that he was just pretending to be powerful.
But I just don’t know the specific way.
"Compared to you, it is still insignificant. You were able to lead four thousand elite troops and defeat ten thousand enemy troops. This glorious record is also widely spread in the north - this is why the Pirate King hopes to establish a cooperative relationship with you."
Scarhead's implication: Everyone is Gale's enemy, and the so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend.
