Chapter 531 Goodbye Raymond

"10%, I can give you 10% of the final selling price as processing fee." This time, without waiting for Shanoba to speak, Gavin directly raised a finger and said, "If you agree, we will sign a cooperation contract. Whether it is the regenerated gems we have now or the newly excavated regenerated gems in the future, all will be handed over to you for processing. If you disagree, then we can only think of other ways. Your craftsmanship is not completely irreplaceable. It's nothing more than that we need to pay for part of the research and development costs and increase the manufacturing costs. But for the long-term plan, I think this effort is sometimes worth it."

"Heart of Regeneration?" Jinbao didn't bother to answer Gavin's question at all. His eyes couldn't help but turn with Gavin's fingers.

Because what was turning in his hand was not the fine gold coin used for training, but a regenerated gem the size of an egg, emitting a mysterious dark luster.

This regenerated gem was the one seized from King Cody Corey.

As the regenerated gems offered by the dog-headed people increased, Gavin further confirmed the preciousness of this super-large regenerated gem.

This big one is still the only one.

So far, there are only 23 gems between the size of quail eggs and chicken eggs.

The two sets of gems given by the dwarf village chief prove that the larger the size of this kind of gem, the stronger its special ability, the more powerful the magic items made from it, and the value will naturally rise and double.

The one in his hand is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars just for its natural ability. If it is made into a magic item, it will be at the level of a divine artifact, an absolute priceless treasure.

He doesn't believe that a gem craftsman can refuse the temptation to make a divine artifact by himself.

As for whether Village Chief Jinbao is a gem craftsman, there is no need to think about it. This is a 100% thing, and he must be the best gem craftsman in their village.

Because the best craftsman can never be an ordinary person, but a powerful professional, and a spellcaster, because only they can use magic to the extreme and dig out the greatest value of the material.

The reaction of the village chief Jinbao was stronger than he expected. After seeing the regeneration gem, he could not take his eyes off it, and even did not care about the business involving tens of millions.

No matter how good a cook is, it is difficult to make good meals without good raw materials.

The same is true for gem craftsmen, especially for the level of village chief Jinbao. Those ordinary materials are a bit unattractive to him, but the location of the regeneration gem mine occupied by their village is really average. Not to mention the top-grade regeneration gems, even the upper-middle level ones are rare.

The best regeneration gem mine in the Troll Mountains is here - the former dwarf gem mine.

You have to believe in the vision and ability of the dwarves. They may not be as good as the dwarves in making gems, but they have an absolute advantage in mining gems.

There is only one such large regeneration gem in the entire Troll Mountains. It was once the noble two-headed troll who was the ruler of the Howling Dwarf Kingdom. Now it has become the trophy of the young Baron Tesser.

Watching the irregular regeneration gemstone flipping in the other person's hand, the village chief Jinbao's heart was also in turmoil, fearing that the other person would accidentally drop the unique regeneration gemstone into pieces, although this possibility was zero - the hardness of the regeneration gemstone was no worse than that of diamonds. Not to mention breaking it, polishing and cutting it were extremely difficult tasks, and magic must be used.

"Heart of Regeneration? This gemstone actually has its own name?" Gavin took the opportunity to get information.

"Yes." Village Chief Jinbao directly explained to Gavin, "Regenerated gems do not exist as separate veins in the Troll Mountains, but as associated minerals with ironstone. They only appear in the center of large pieces of ironstone.

The higher the purity of the ironstone and the larger the block, the greater the probability of containing regenerated gems, and the larger the size of the produced regenerated gems.

It is as if these regenerated gems are the heart of these ironstones and purify them, so they are also called the heart of ironstone.

The one in your hand was said to be wrapped in hundreds of tons of fine steel when it was produced. It is the center of the entire vein and the most proud work of the dwarves in this dwarf city. It is said that it was once inlaid on a dwarf crown and was called the heart of the mountains. .

These trolls are complete idiots. They knocked it off the crown, and the other part of the crown disappeared. "

"So that's how it is." Gavin asked excitedly, "In that case, you must have classified these regeneration gems. How do you classify them according to the functional grade?"

"This kind of regeneration gem that can only open fast medical treatment, we call it regeneration dust, they are just the dust of regeneration gems.

This kind of regeneration ability, we call it regeneration star, and the bigger one, but smaller than the regeneration heart, we call it regeneration moon. "

From the names they gave to each grade, it can be seen how much they value this gem.

After understanding the knowledge he wanted, Gavin directly threw the regeneration heart to the village chief of the dwarf village and asked: "If it is handed over to you, how are you going to make it?"

Jin Bao hurriedly took the Heart of Rebirth and couldn't wait to observe the Heart of Rebirth while replying: "The power inside this kind of gem that has been shaped must have its own way of operating. If you create it rashly, it will only ability to damage it.

If possible, it is best to find the original accessories.

Even if I can't find it, I can just find its original forging method. Then I can use this method to analyze its original abilities, and then tailor a new building plan based on its abilities.

Dwarves like to use murals as a way to remember things. Maybe the casting method of the Heart of the Mountains is still left in this city. This is also a small request of ours to allow us to study the murals of this dwarven city. "

"As long as you agree to my transaction conditions, not only can you visit this dwarf city at will, but the reshaping of the Heart of Regeneration will also be entrusted to you. When the time comes, you will only have to come up with a plan, and the rest of the auxiliary materials will be left to you. I have some auxiliary materials like this in hand." Gavin took out two more metal ingots from the portable dimension hole and shook them in front of Jin Bao.

The two metal ingots were each only as big as a fist, but they were not light at all. The muscles on Gavin's arms visibly bulged.

One piece sparkled with gold, the other sparkled with silver.

Jinbao couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and said, "Adamantine and mithril?"

"The village chief's question is a bit funny. Do you think I will use gold and silver to show off in front of you?" Gavin laughed.

"The Baron is the best negotiator I have ever seen. I can't refuse your series of temptations." The village chief of Jinbao let out a long breath and said, "Then this matter is settled. , Let’s have a happy cooperation.”

"Happy cooperation, I will work out a perfect contract as soon as possible, but I have a small additional request, which is to hand over all the finished rings in your village to me, and I will keep enough recycled gems of equal value to wait for you After the processing is completed, we will trade a new batch, what do you think?" Gavin's condition naturally has its own meaning.

The first is insurance. Even if something goes wrong in the dwarf village, the loss will not be too great.

The second is to cash out and directly convert the regenerated gems into regenerated rings. Whether it is given to subordinates or sold, it will save waiting time.

The shrewd head of the dwarf village saw through Gavin's little plan at a glance, but he did not break it. Instead, he nodded readily and said: "Okay, Lord Baron will prepare ten dusts of rebirth and ten stars of rebirth when the time comes." ”

He does not dare to take a large order at once, but is prepared to take a step-by-step approach.

Trust requires a process, and both parties are far from reaching this level.

"Where's the Rebirth Moon? Don't you have the finished product of the Rebirth Moon in your hands?" Gavin asked in surprise.

"Not really." Village Chief Jinbao said with some embarrassment, "The mine where our village is located is too barren. The iron ore is scattered and scattered, mostly regeneration dust, and even rebirth stars are rare. We haven’t seen a single regenerating moon yet. The number of regenerating gems is far rarer than the Baron imagined. You will know when you actually dig it yourself. It would be amazing to produce one or two a month.”

"By the way, how do you determine whether there are regenerated gemstones in an iron stone? You can't cut it open one by one, right?"

"Gem locating technique, a variant of object locating technique. Some of the old kobold miners should be proficient in this technique, otherwise it will be difficult to find regenerated gems." Village Chief Jinbao said without any secret.

"I see." Gavin nodded and said, "I learned a lot today. This rebirth moon is our deposit for the transaction. I hope you can make more powerful magic equipment as soon as possible."

Gavin took out a regeneration gem and threw it to the dwarf village chief, replacing the regeneration heart.

He would not trust such a precious gem to the other party before the other party had a definite plan. It was estimated that large-scale cooperation would be launched in the future.

The manufacturing of recycled jewelry will not be carried out in the dwarf village, but a specialized gem processing workshop will be established in the dwarf statue city.

Compared with the huge value of the regenerated gems, the huge farm food in the dwarf village has really become a mere gift.

After a simple and clear explanation from the head of the dwarf village, the general direction of the dwarf statue city was completely decided.

In essence, it is the same as the Black Well, it is an iron mine, but during the excavation process, there is a new process, using gem positioning technology to conduct surveys to see if there are any recycled gems inside.

If there is any, break it open and look for regenerated gems. If not, treat it as ordinary iron ore.

When it comes to mining iron ore, Long Oak Ling's Black Well already has a relatively mature operating process.

The use of tremor bombs, enlightenment trees and a large number of medium and low spells makes their mining efficiency, not to mention unique among kobolds, even among dwarves who are famous for their mining, it can be ranked among the best, second only to those who do not follow common sense. The dwarves’ ultra-modern rune production line is played out - some dwarves are said to have achieved pure mechanization and use self-sufficient golems for mining.

Among the kobolds gathered here in the Dwarf Statue City, there are alchemists themselves, but the flutter bombs they deploy are still traditional kobold metaphysical bombs, which are very powerful and fantasy. They only need to improve the dragon oak collar. If the version is taught to them, they can use local materials and prepare them in large quantities.

The Enlightened Trees are also ready. All the Enlightened Trees that accompanied the migrating army were transferred here by Gavin.

The vacant positions will be pulled by the giantized livestock collected by the Blood Claw Legion.

Not only the Enlightened Trees, but also the Tree People will be freed from this heavy work, leaving their energy to do the work that the livestock cannot do.

A large number of low- and medium-level spells are also ready. The number of Kobolds who have opened dragon veins, dragon blood, and dragonization here is not as high as that in the Dragon Oak Territory.

But with the help of Shanoba's special ability, I believe they will be able to catch up soon.

In particular, her enthusiasm for gathering Kobolds has been fully aroused. When the situation in the Dwarf Statue City is slightly stable, she will march towards the Giant Running Mountains and the Snow Flake Mountains.

In less than a month, the iron mine in the Dwarf Statue City will be able to operate again and directly enter a high-yield state.

Unfortunately, the builders of the Dwarven Statue City seem to have focused all their energy on the regeneration gems. This is just a simple iron ore mining site, and there is no direct iron smelting production line like in South Klept.

However, with Dalauma of Zalanda in the south, there is no need to worry about the fat water flowing to outsiders. The iron ore will go south along the migration route. With the super-heavy trucks made by Misnoel and the giant livestock produced in the Giant Plains, the transportation efficiency will also be very good.

This alone can fully revitalize the economy of this line.

As soon as Gavin sent off the new partner of the dwarf village, he welcomed a new visitor - Raymond, the lord of Ritawen and the quasi-legendary wizard.

"Congratulations, Baron, you have become famous in one battle. Now you are not only famous around the Giant Plains, but also the entire Dragon Coast, Amn and Tethyr are praising your name.

Your series of measures here will not bring peace to the surrounding areas for ten years, but may be a hundred years, or even permanent peace." When they met again, Raymond did not hesitate to praise him.

Life is unpredictable.

Even Raymond himself did not expect to meet Gavin again so soon.

Raymond still clearly remembered his mentality last time, with a bit of superiority in his curiosity.

After all, the supply and demand were not equal at that time.

In addition to bringing a new trade route from north to south to Retaven, the other party could not bring other benefits, at least not in the short term.

And the new trade route was not built by himself.

The other party's own actions themselves have a rigid demand. Whether or not there is a goodwill from himself, they will build this migration road.

As a result, the other party, relying on a patchwork army, destroyed the troll kingdom that had been a disaster here for hundreds of years.

This is nothing.

It's just because this place is too remote and surrounded by monsters. Many forces are unwilling to pay a high price to do this, otherwise the troll kingdom would have been finished long ago.

The key problem is that the other party turned around and built a city here, and not one, but two that support each other.

The speed was so fast that even he, a quasi-legendary wizard, was amazed.

In this way, the nature of the battle changed completely. The other party suddenly had a large amount of rare materials that even Retaven coveted.

"Lord City Lord, you are too kind. I just did what I should do. The success of this matter is also thanks to your great assistance. If it weren't for your generosity, we would still have to wait and see whether we won or lost the battle with the Troll Kingdom." Gavin thanked him sincerely.

The 1.8 million materials previously obtained from Retaven played a decisive role in this battle.

"Lord Baron is too modest. Even if you didn't purchase materials from Retaven, you would have won this battle. It's just a matter of casualties." Raymond was watching the battle from the beginning to the end.

It was very clear that the key to their victory in this battle was not on those civilians, but on the elite troops led by Gavin and his men. If they couldn't blow up the demon portal, they would definitely lose.

"With so many casualties, we will lose this battle. After all, our main purpose is immigration and protecting the safety of these civilians. Everything else is relatively secondary." Gavin corrected seriously.

"Lord Baron is indeed a kind person. Those civilians chose to follow you, which is definitely the most correct choice in their lives." Raymond praised Gavin again, "I won't beat around the bush with Lord Baron. I have a few cooperation projects to discuss with you."

Gavin sat up straight and put on a serious listening posture and said, "Lord City Lord, please speak."

"The first project is those troll corpses. I am willing to pay a high price to buy them all. One ordinary troll costs one thousand gold coins, and one noble troll costs ten thousand gold coins." Raymond made a direct offer.

It is indeed a high price. The market price of ordinary troll corpses is between eight hundred and one thousand.

Noble trolls are unique to the Giant Plains, but it is not easy to estimate the price. Ten thousand gold coins is indeed not low.

Separately, it is not too amazing.

But once accumulated, it is a bit amazing.

There is no exact number of trolls dispatched by the Troll Kingdom at the time, but there is an accurate number of trolls killed by Gavin and his men.

58 noble trolls and 628 ordinary trolls, which is estimated to account for half of the total force of the Troll Kingdom, nearly two-thirds.

According to Raymond's offer, this item alone is nearly 1.5 million golden coins.

If war is a highly profitable business, then the war of annihilation is the most profitable of all.

Gavin's direct profits from the Troll Kingdom are close to tens of millions. This is not the end, but just the beginning.
