&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Led by the goblin profiteer, Gronn visited the secret underground factory located in the haunted gold mine area.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;This factory is not built inside a haunted gold mine, but is a secret underground fortification dug underground by making full use of the abandoned houses and collapsed public sheds built in the nearby area. I have to say that this idea of the goblin businessman is really good. After all, it is difficult for ordinary people to imagine that there is a large underground mine nearby. If the idle space can be used at will, someone will waste time and effort to dig out an underground mine again. Buildings, inertial thinking, and the well-known reputation of the haunted gold mine. Even if someone comes to investigate here, they will only focus on the gold mine and not pay attention to the abandoned buildings scattered on the ground. , even if someone notices that the ground is empty, they will only naturally imagine that it is part of a haunted gold mine, and will not delve too deeply into it.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;And according to the goblin merchants, in these re-excavated caves, there are no weird and bad phenomena inside the haunted mines. This is an interesting situation. At least it may not be the land that is cursed or should be protected, but the "gold mine" itself.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;This hidden factory is currently in a state of shutdown. There is not even a person inside, but the equipment and tools are very complete. Gron has never seen it before, and even heard about these names in front of him from stories. As for "steam machinery", he originally thought that the most complex thing would be a large loom, but after he saw these steel monsters in front of him, which the goblin merchants called steam forging presses, steam grinding machines, etc. Only then did Gron really feel the true meaning of what the beautiful snake spirit said, "Reading thousands of books is not as good as practicing." &bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“These iron guys are powered by the rich black stone and black oil deposits near Haishi Bay. Those things that can only burn fire are very cheap here. This is why the Northland Bear family chose this place. The important reason why I am a partner. Yes, every steam machinery here is manufactured and assembled using the technology and important parts provided by the Beidixiong family. These machines are very simple to operate and only require a simple process. The only thing currently lacking is a large number of workers who are strict and careful and must be very reliable. This is also the most depressing thing for me now. The employee guards originally arranged here are reserve worker candidates. It is also the last test to test whether they are strict, but you have also seen the result. They have all run away now. Although I can legitimately deduct all their salaries, how can I bear in the Northland? The contract signed with me starts work within a limited time. Why is it so difficult for our Tarkin Chamber of Commerce to recruit some workers?"
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;The reason why the goblin businessman cannot hire workers is really simple. Although he has excellent business intuition and amazingly accurate investment vision, who is willing to work for a stingy and stingy boss like him? He works. In addition, the current economy of Luochao Port is undergoing rapid development. As long as they are hard-working and healthy young people, there will be no shortage of employment opportunities. Almost every guild factory is short of people. There are really many choices for them to make. . Although the employment conditions offered by the Tarkin Chamber of Commerce are not low, they cannot stop the boss from thinking about how to deduct all the employees' wages all day long. As batch after batch of resigned workers worked hard for the greenskins, but in the end received nothing, they gave free publicity to the goblin profiteers. Now, even if the goblins raise the recruitment package to several times that of others, there will not be many of them. I am willing to work under him. &bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Gron is now tied to the same chariot as this profiteer. If his Tarkin Chamber of Commerce encounters trouble, then Gronn will temporarily stay with the food of the same race in the haunted gold mine. It won't be easy for the demons either. Although under the instruction of Gronn, these ogres are willing to help Tarkin Hillman accumulate wealth. They are all top-notch as guards or miners, and under the mysterious influence of the haunted gold mine, their minds seem to have become better. However, with the ogre's huge size and thick hands and feet, they are simply not qualified for the job. The operators of these steam machines required patience and dexterity in their delicate work.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Thinking of this, Goron suddenly thought of the women in the old port. The old street of the big boss Cassandra is not just a group of beautiful young prostitutes, there are also many old people and children. Of course There will also be many women whose looks and figures are not good enough to work as prostitutes. In the entire Ebb tide port, Cassandra is probably the only one who will not abandon these "trash", but because of this, the loyalty of these people to her is also There is absolutely no problem. If she is asked to find a group of reliable workers to assist the goblins, she may be able to solve a difficult problem for Laojie and Tarkin Chamber of Commerce at the same time.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;While Goron was thinking about this matter in detail, Tarkin brought Goron to a table, pointed to an object placed on it and said: "Look, this is The Northland Bear Family commissioned me to make a new weapon. This is a sample provided by Cool Bear, and my task is to copy it in large quantities within a limited time. "
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Gron picked up the weapon and looked at it carefully. It was a black iron pillar like a chimney. One end was a hollow iron barrel like the muzzle of a musket, while the other end was completely sealed. And you can see some very complex and precise metal mechanical structures. If you have to describe it, it is like a super gun with the handle removed and enlarged dozens of times.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"This thing is called a 'cannon mortar'. It is an airborne weapon specially designed for dwarf steam tanks and steam helicopters. Its caliber and power are dozens of times that of ordinary muskets. Even if He is a high-level strong man who possesses fighting spirit and has broken the seals of the gods. If he is hit by this guy from the front, his body will be completely destroyed. The only pity is that this guy's warhead cannot yet be infused with magic. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will Even fifth-level battle king-level monsters will run away immediately when they see a lot of these things."
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Ignoring the chatter of the goblin businessman, Gronn suddenly interrupted the goblin after playing with this thing carefully and said: "Why can this thing only be used in things called 'tanks' and 'helicopters'?" 'Can't we ogres use it?"
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Aren't you talking nonsense? This thing weighs several kilograms. It takes an average person to shake it with the strength of milk. Who else can hold it in their hands and use it as a weapon?"
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;At this point, the goblin merchant suddenly opened his eyes, because right in front of him, Gronn was holding an oversized iron guy that was almost as thick as his waist in his hand, as if he was holding a piece of it. The branches were turned over and over to check.
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“Damn it, why did I forget that you ogres are all a bunch of powerful monsters?”
&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;What emerged in Goron's mind at this time was the fantasy of a large group of ogre warriors holding such "cannon mortars", and Chiang's damn fairy tale war king blasting into the sky. Although these are just a fantasy so far, who can guarantee that they will not become reality.
