Chapter 548 549. Two mine owners

What Boss Roy said in the small square in front of the city hall aroused great repercussions in the plateau city.

Just half a day later, the purchasing point of the Mine Guard Group made some adjustments to the purchase price of magic herbs. The purchase price of junior magic herbs increased by 30%, and the purchase price of intermediate and high-level magic herbs dropped by 30% accordingly. This means that the purchase price of the mine guards increased by 30%. The field guard group focuses on purchasing low-level magic herbs, and intermediate and high-level magic herbs will flow into the free market.

Moreover, the official advice given by the Plateau City to the mixed elf collectors is that they hope that they can put the mid- to high-level magic herbs in their hands into the free market.

All of a sudden, the mixed-blood elven collectors in Plateau City responded to Boss Roy's move.

Elf merchants who had been unable to buy magic herbs in the past finally saw a wave of business opportunities, and the free market became more lively.

The first batch of iron chains was finally delivered to the forge in the Kasai Mountains. These iron chains, which are as thick as wrists, are used to reinforce the port of Sun Island and the surrounding seawalls.

The iron chains can be woven into a huge iron net, and all the stones piled up on the sea wall can be wrapped in the iron net, which will make the sea wall more stable.

Roy also planned to use these iron chains to weave into a huge iron cage during the construction of the port, put the stones into the iron cage, and then pile them on the port pier.

The first batch of iron chains shipped from the forging workshop didn't look like a lot, but in fact, the iron chains moved into the magic airship only filled half of the warehouse. The captain responsible for driving the magic airship hurriedly found Roy and asked him. Roy said that the magic airship is currently fully loaded.

The weight of these iron chains exceeded Roy's estimate, so they could only be divided into two magic airships and transported to Sun Island Bay.

This time the magic airship sails to Sun Island Bay, and Roy will also go with the ship.

In addition, Siren Zezena, Miss Tiffany, and Moira will also take a boat to Sun Island Bay.

Sabrina was unable to go to Sun Island Bay with her because she wanted to stay and help Mu Lin train the new half-blood elf army.

When a magic airship ascends into the wind layer, it will consume a large amount of magic crystals.

When fully loaded and ascending to the wind layer, one hundred and twenty magic crystals will be burned in just half a day.

When the magic airship enters the wind flow layer, it needs to remain suspended in the wind flow layer. In this state, the twelve floating devices are in a low-energy operation state, and almost sixty magic crystals are used up a day and night.

That is to say, a magic airship flying from Plateau City to Sun Island Bay requires two hundred magic crystals for a one-way trip. It seems that the shipping fee is simply astronomical.

But if you change the calculation method, you will have a completely different answer:

A magic airship can carry almost five hundred mixed-blood elf warriors. If this high shipping cost is allocated to each mixed-blood elf warrior, the shipping cost is actually not expensive.

Of course, if you have the time and conditions to take a land transport team, the freight you need to bear is even less than one-tenth of the magic airship.

At present, the treasury of the mine guard group can fully afford the high freight. Roy also hopes that the magic airship can be accepted by the elves in the Partington plane, so he does not care much about magic crystals in the early stage. The cost of stone.

…

The magic airship left the plateau city and gradually rose into the clouds. Miss Tiffany and Moira stood side by side on the ship's roof.

"Before you leave, why don't you go and see the little half-blood elf girl?" Miss Tiffany asked curiously.

Moira shook her head, a gust of wind blew her broken hair up, she pursed her lips and said, "I don't want to go."

Miss Tiffany blinked and stared at Moira: "You have helped her so much, don't you want to see how she will live in the future?"

Moira had a faint smile on her face and shook her head.

Siren Zezena was lying in the bathtub in the stern cabin, pouring seawater on her body with two hands, and her other two arms were resting on the edge of the bathtub. The last two hands were holding a book in one hand and a book in the other. Holding a cup of fruit tea in hand, it looks very comfortable.

There were only two round glass windows in her room. Through the windows, she could see white clouds as flat as wool blankets. The Griffin Barrier Mountains in the distance penetrated the clouds and reached into the sky, like a huge natural barrier.

It turns out that the Partington plane has such a vast and colorful world besides the sea...

She suddenly felt that the free life of lying on the seabed and basking in the sun every day didn't seem so fragrant anymore. As long as desire was born in her heart, it would not be easily extinguished.

A group of people arrived at the port of Sun Island Bay in a magic airship. At this time, nearly a thousand mixed elves gathered at the port. They were transporting huge rocks from the stalagmite forest and piling them on the beach, preparing to build a seaport here.

The Siren Jezena saw the magic airship coming to the sea in Sun Island Bay. She couldn't wait for the magic airship to land on the sea. She couldn't wait to walk out of the cabin, opened the door next door, and lay in the bathtub facing her. Miss Tiffany said:

"Tiffany, we're even."

"Well, take care along the way!"

Miss Tiffany said casually and waved her hand with her back turned.

Then, Jie Zena twisted her shoulders and swam to the deck and came to the side of the ship. Under the stunned gaze of a group of half-blood elves, Jie Zena jumped down from a height of several hundred meters. After waiting for a long time, a faint "plop" sound came from the sea.

...

Roy came to Sun Island Bay this time for the construction of the port terminal.

Under the leadership of Captain Tiprado, the half-blood elves near Sun Island Bay have built the prototype of the port during this period.

And before this, a simple dock was built here with logs. Now it is just rebuilt on the original site, so the progress is very fast.

After all, the half-blood elves in Sun Island Bay can tame griffins, and it is more convenient for them to use griffins to move these huge rocks.

More than half of the half-blood elves in Sun Island Bay now live in the jungle behind the port terminal. A brand new elf village has taken shape in the jungle.

Captain Tiprado stood with Roy on the beach in front of the port. He pointed to the flying fish boat not far away and said to Roy excitedly:

"Someone has tried to fish in the Sun Island Bay recently, and the harvest is still very good every day."

"Prepare a batch of fresh sea fish tomorrow morning. I will transport these fresh sea fish to the Plateau City!" Roy said with a smile.

"Captain, are you really going to use the magic airship to transport sea fish?"

...

Three weeks later, Roy was hurriedly called back to the Plateau City by a letter from Mulin.

The Silver Pegasus Military Department of Padstow City sent two Silver Moon Elf mine owners to the Plateau City. Along with these two mine owners, there were also two thousand half-blood elf warriors, but all the officers above the captain level in this army were Silver Moon Elves.

Captain Brad and Captain Craven stood in the lobby of the City Hall. Roy still had some impression of them.

They were originally the captains of the Silver Moon Elf Infantry Guards. When the Silver Pegasus Legion invaded the Pagisto Plateau, their Infantry Guards were stationed in the mines.

But now their Infantry Guards were dispersed by the Gray Dwarf bandits in the Battle of Queen Eweni Islands.

At present, the Silver Pegasus Legion has no plans to reorganize the Silver Moon Elf Infantry Guards.

They are no longer the captains of the Infantry Guards, and can only be sent to the Partington plane by the military, asking General Kempfred to arrange a more leisurely position for them.

And General Kempfred hopes that they can serve as the mine owners of the Pagisto Plateau, so that they can save some capital for themselves, and maybe they can reorganize the Infantry Guards in the future.

Seeing the huge profits of the Pagisto Plateau mine, General Kempfred did not want Roy to control the Pagisto Plateau mine alone, so he sent two mine owners over in the name of the Silver Pegasus Military.

According to General Kampfred's idea, Roy had to give up two normally operating mines, but Roy didn't want to give up the mines he had worked so hard to create.

Roy said to the two Silver Moon Elf captains:

"When the Mine Guard was first established, the Corps did not provide military expenses. I established this Mine Guard Corps based on the revenue of the Pagisto Plateau Mine."

"Earl Swinburne promised me that half of the revenue of these mines would go to the Mine Guard Corps to maintain the daily expenses of the army, post-war pensions, replacement of armaments, etc., and the other half of the revenue would be paid to the Silver Pegasus Corps."

"You want to take over these mines, of course there is nothing wrong with that."

"However, no matter how you operate the mines you have taken over, half of the monthly revenue of the mines must go to the Mine Guard Corps. In addition, the amount of revenue paid cannot be less than that of the previous month. For the rest, how much do you want to intercept... go and talk to General Kampfred."
