#141 - The dwarves brought the territory to take off
Su Li possessed a great mindset. Regarding the arrival of these thousand-plus dwarves, he didn't just focus on the pressure; he saw it more as an opportunity for his territory to take off.
It was as if his territory was experiencing the development speed of having ten thousand people ahead of schedule. This 'experience card' could last for at least one cycle.
Dwarves, like Ogres, have far greater endurance than humans and can work continuously for several hours without rest. The construction capability of these thousand-plus strong dwarf warriors is probably equivalent to seven or eight thousand humans.
Their first project was to build blacksmith shops in Blackwood Territory.
On the night of their arrival, after eating and drinking their fill, some honest and straightforward dwarves, with their noses red from alcohol, said they couldn't just eat the big guy's food for free. (Mainly because they really ate too much! Dwarves who usually only ate bread mixed with gravel were now devouring four or five pounds of venison in the Black Forest, expanding their bellies and waistlines.)
They didn't have much wealth to repay their friend, so these dwarves slapped their thighs and said that they only knew how to forge equipment, so they would forge a few sets of equipment for their big friend as a return for the grand reception.
So, some powerful dwarves directly kicked the dwarf apprentices out of the Black Forest blacksmith shop. They occupied the furnaces and personally helped Blackwood Territory forge more refined dwarf armor.
In just one night, these dwarves worked through the night to forge thirteen sets of armor.
At current Marienburg prices, this was almost equivalent to 800 gold crowns!
However, their violent tempers quickly turned their good intentions into a terrible situation, causing many to bear humiliation and lose their reputation, and leading to the immediate birth of six Troll Butchers.
Because too many people thought of this method, they fought fiercely to seize the furnaces, directly demolishing the blacksmith shop in the castle.
At that time, Su Li was engaged in knightly training with the aloof and beautiful witch Ingrid, conquering her territory inch by inch, causing the aloof witch to lose control, her defenses collapsing one after another. The intense explosion allowed Su Li to succeed, completely possessing her aloof body.
However, this witch was somewhat reserved and mysterious. Su Li had only succeeded in two places, still a little short of unlocking the triple training speed.
But having already engaged in knightly training, completely occupying her body and mind was only a matter of time.
Su Li was in a great mood and didn't dwell on the losses caused by the dwarves.
This made the dwarves even more grateful and apologetic.
So, the next day, the dwarves decided to help Su Li build several blacksmith shops as compensation, so that more of them could forge equipment and repay the favor.
The efficiency of the dwarf engineers was indeed unparalleled!
In just two days, the territory had four new blacksmith shops, plus the existing one, bringing the territory's blacksmith shop scale to five, and all were larger and better equipped!
This really gave Su Li the feeling that he could also obtain the imperial throne.
When starting out, the Boarhide only had thirteen sets of armor. Then he built large-scale blacksmith shops in Liaodong, stretching for over five miles, and built a heavy armored infantry force.
Su Li was currently only slightly weaker, with five blacksmith shops. If he could really have thousands of dwarves stationed in his territory, he could easily create a heavy armored infantry and cavalry force.
Moreover, this would not only enhance his military strength but also make Blackwood Territory's industrial strength advance by leaps and bounds. In the future, he could reap huge wealth just by selling armor.
The key is that these dwarves bring more help than just industrial forging and armor making.
Dwarves are known for their powerful forging and engineering capabilities, and dwarf engineering masters are renowned throughout the Empire.
In almost every territory, there are dwarf engineering masters helping their big friends build municipal engineering projects and develop their leadership.
The dwarves who came to the Black Forest also demonstrated unparalleled infrastructure capabilities.
First, they helped their clansmen build a dwarf community in the southeastern area of Blackwood Town. Under their command, the efficiency of the ogre construction team greatly increased.
This area saw the rapid rise of sixty or seventy buildings, including ordinary dwarf housing and city-style row houses.
These tall, log and stone four-story apartment buildings were like a faded magnificent painting, with a tall, magnificent style and large rooms that could be rented to a large number of free people.
Within the Empire, in many populous and prosperous territories, these row houses would be filled with people from all walks of life and were also the favorite places for Slaanesh cultists to operate.
But this was also a necessary building for the prosperity of the territory, as it could accommodate more people and develop more religions and believers.
Corresponding to this prosperous residence, four or five commercial buildings were also built in the community, including bakeries, cheese rooms, a dwarf jewelry guild branch, commercial company shops, grocery stores, and large warehouses, etc.
In the warehouses here were stored hundreds of sets of star steel armor, hundreds of pieces of jewelry, and some strange things that the dwarves had excavated from the ruins of lost civilizations.
There were lucky people who bought or found some interesting things inside. For example, a formal knight bought a [Black Eagle Statue]. This was not a simple statue but a part of a huge structure of a sacred Titan of death. The dwarves carved it into the shape of the god of death statue of Araby, a distant southern desert kingdom, which could guide the dead citizens of the kingdom into the underworld.
Due to their natural anti-magic constitution, the dwarves could not feel the divine power surging on it.
However, human knights could feel divine grace. This formal knight felt a dream from Morr at night. After turning this statue into a shrine and placing it next to the small road outside the village, he successfully transformed into a devout Morr Black Knight and was promoted to an elite-level Black Guard Knight. He obtained divine magic from Morr, which could make the corpses he blessed permanently immune to necromancy.
This incident made the dwarf community famous for a time, after all, the sacred Titan of death itself was very legendary. According to the archaeological deductions of imperial scholars, the existence of the Titans may be traced back to the very beginning of this world.
At that time, the Titans were the masters of this world, and they lived on the Sky Mountains on the edge of the world, which is now the location of the Ogre Kingdom.
Everyone was sure that the rise of the Ogre Kingdom was due to the fall of the Titans.
During the long War in the Heavens, the Ogres captured one after another Titan Sky Mountain, which were accustomed to living in isolation, and ate them alive.
Although the weapons and magic of the Sky Titans eliminated a large number of Ogres, the number of Ogres was still a hundred times greater than the Titans, and their numbers would multiply and expand with each conquered peak of the Sky Mountain.
Finally, the Ogres successfully completed the first race extermination war in this world.
However, some people say that the Titans have not completely fallen. Those giants who are taller than small mountains are the defective products produced by the Titans, which are used to fight against the Ogres.
However, regardless of whether this legend is reliable, it proves that the Titans have been eliminated by the times because the Ogres have occupied their land, enslaved their children, and almost eaten all the mammoths they raised.
Now, various legends about the sacred Titans can only be found in the buried ancient ruins.
The latest novel is first published on Six Nine Book Bar!
These powerful props and the occasional powerful magic weapons prove the glorious history of the sacred Titans.
And constantly remind humans that the crisis of civilization extinction is not far away. If various threats cannot be properly dealt with, the Empire may also be completely destroyed like the sacred Titans, becoming a part of the ruins in tens of thousands of years.
In addition to building infrastructure in the city, the dwarves have not neglected the castles and rural areas.
The dwarves are most famous for their water conservancy construction capabilities.
In the central area of the Empire, an Elector Count once had a dispute with the dwarves over the allocation of water sources. The dwarf king ordered the construction of a large number of water conservancy facilities on the mountain, which greatly reduced the downstream water volume, and the agriculture within the Elector Count's territory was severely damaged that year.
The Elector Count had to lower his proud head and send his most trusted and high-ranking chief steward to the mountain to negotiate friendly with the dwarves before the problem was resolved.
Since then, the citizens of the Empire have clearly known that they cannot offend these stubborn dwarfs in the mountains.
Of course, humans and dwarves generally have relatively friendly relations. Even the mountain dwarves will be friendly to human visits.
The dwarves within the Empire will do their best to help the imperial nobles build water conservancy facilities within their territories.
The first rural municipal building built by the Redbeard dwarves in Blackwood Territory was the water gate in Baran Village.
From the vast central plains, all the way up to the Crimson Highlands and the Gray Mountains, the Blackwater River passes through many water gates.
The first of these water gates is located in the aloof Baran Village, which was the first territory bought by the old halfling Hatzkling.
Hatzkling, like her clansmen, enjoys a simple, happy, and relaxed life;
She likes to sit next to her house, smoking a pipe and watching the canal flow by, or tending her beautiful garden.
Her responsibility is to guard the water gate built by the dwarf engineers, which serves as the first checkpoint for tax collection and vigilance in the territory.
In addition to Hatzkling's simple two-story private house, there is also a small watchtower. The upper floor of the house is her living room, kitchen, and bedroom, decreasing in size in that order. The lower floor includes a small office, a cozy living room, a storage room, and a storage room for storing tolls.
There is also a sturdy prison cell for the river guards to temporarily house prisoners when needed: this is a characteristic of most water gate guard houses.
Inside are usually imprisoned slaves who want to escape, smugglers who have sneaked in, and certain cultists who may be wandering around.
The construction of this water gate undoubtedly greatly enhances the territory's defense capabilities and tax collection capabilities.
River trolls, smugglers, and goblin tribes and beastmen wandering outside the territory can no longer easily break into the territory.
