Chapter 28: Problems with Construction and Mithril Transaction
The seven to eight days expanding the town had mobilized almost half of the idle people there. Anyway, as long as money was given, there were no problems cutting into a mountain and building roads to lead to the iron and mythril mines.
The mythril mine was not occupied by the Orcs so William naturally wanted to excavate it. After all, mythril was never too much for people expanding the streets and repairing the houses.
Integrating all the buildings in the town, he planned six housing areas.
Humans, Half-elves, Elves, Dwarfs, military camps, blacksmiths and other manufacturing rooms.Of course, entertainment and cultural facilities were also indispensable.
The bathhouse must be built. Many civilians had put forward their opinions to him that there was no public bathhouse in the town, only Rainbow River. It did not matter where men took baths, they could just find a place with no one, take off their clothes and could pick up the soap…
It was really troublesome for women to carry water back home.
Most of the daily water usage was taken from Rainbow River, which made people feel bad or unwell as if there was something in their throats!
What’s worse was that many single men knew what bad things they had done in the river, such as using fish…
Meanwhile.
William also wanted to build a magnificent central fountain on Rainbow River, where the skills would be used from mages and Dwarfs jointly to complete it.The thriving border town also made the civilians in the territory feel relieved.
There were many races coexisting in the town and there were not many communication barriers. After all, this was the Legendary continent.
Although each race had its own language, which was the language of communication within the race they all spoke a common language.
As for whether there would be some inconveniences in living habits?
William had tried his best to separate their living quarters. If there was really an inconvenience, they could roll up their sleeves and fight it out. He could be the judge…
The building endowment of the Dwarfs was good. If one did not pay attention to the beauty, then all the buildings they had built would bring a sense of security to people. Their ability to build fortifications was the best in the lands of Gods.
Dwarfs were the best in building and had a talent for researching new equipment. Although they could not be compared with Goblins, they were also outstanding.
…
The sun was shining brightly and the day was filled with sounds of insects and birds.
No matter whether in the town or in the dense forest, nothing could bring any coolness to people.
Because the tidal air in the forest would only make people feel more stuffy and hot. The trees that had been cut down for road construction had not been wasted. Instead, they were carried back to the town and used as materials for building houses.
Odom carried a big tree by himself and threw it on the ground, dust flying everywhere.
He wiped away the sweat from his forehead, picked up the kettle and poured the water on his blonde hair that was shining under the sun.
This was the 32nd tree he had carried back, he had to say something.
In terms of hard work, professionals had more advantages and earned more money.
He was only wearing a white linen shirt, showing his chest slightly and his scarred muscles could be vaguely seen.
At this time, he was looking at William, who was drinking juice. “The comprehensive construction of the town is too time-consuming. I don’t even know when it will be finished.”
William touched Bear Two, who was biting his pants. “How long?”
“The town has 4300 residents and 800 troops, of which 300 troops have been guarding the two mines and supervising it. Now, only 2700 people can help with the expansion of the town.
“According to the number of people now, even if we continually build houses day and night, it will take about six months for the fortification to be built.
“This is because there are a lot of professionals in the staff, otherwise the time would drag on even longer.”
Odom took a sip of water and continued. “I know what your thoughts are. Build a foundation that is perfect enough or even an underground system as a foundation in order for future expansion. But with these building methods, there are too few people and it really is taking a long time.”
William kicked away Bear One who was biting his shoes and said, “I’ll find a way to buy some slaves from Black Rock duchy!”
“How many gold coins are left in the town?” Odom’s mouth twitched. It was not free to build a town, they had to pay wages.
“Isn’t there the iron ore? There was man iron essence in the iron produced recently and it’s enough to sell for more than 500 gold coins, plus that mythril…” At this point, William and Odom were a bit dejected.
The mythril dug out by the Dwarf race for several years had been refined, with a quantity of 840 kilograms!
What notion was this?
This was a huge sum of money!
Mythril was as light as a feather and as strong as a dragon scale. It was slightly exaggerated, but in terms of hardness, it was several times that of steel, but its weight was less than half of steel.
With this 840 kilograms of mythril and a blacksmith with good craftsmanship, 3360 pieces of silver equipment could be made.
Or it could become a mage’s magic material and had many uses.
In short, 500 grams of mythril could be exchanged for at least 100 gold coins.
In the regions where there was less mythril, the higher its value was. A small place like the Black Rock Duchy, which did not produce mythril at all, depended on imports from other countries. If one really asked for a price, it was not impossible for 500 grams of mythril to be worth nearly 150 gold coins and there were buyers for it.
And the iron ore was basically not marketable. The name of the Iron Duchy was very obvious, there were many iron ore mines inside and a lot of iron had to be thrown out. This was a sad story…
So, this was also why William chose to trade in the Black Rock Duchy.
The situation between the two duchies was extremely tense. The old king of Black Rock Duchy was bedridden and dying because of his early injury, and it seemed like he would go to hell soon.
This situation also made the Iron Duchy have some bad ideas, which was to prepare for war.
So some key war resources would not be sold to the Black rock Duchy, even if there were private transactions, the quantity was very small, so the iron ore mine could be sold at a good price.
However, no matter how the prince of Black Rok Duchy competed for power and profits, or how ignorant he was when the City of Dawn leaked mythril, the precious item, it would attract many people’s attention and greed.
“Why don’t you carve some marks?”
“Huh?” William did not understand. After Odom’s explanation, he gradually understood.
Odom had some unique techniques. He could imprint the symbols of other countries on the mythril. His most skilled one was the symbol of the Lonely Mountain empire…
In this way, it could make people think that they had gotten the mythril from somewhere and not dug from the mythril mine.
“But if we do print the symbols of other countries, then the quantity of the mythril sold can’t be too much. Otherwise, it will cause suspicion!” William had no good ideas at the moment.
It was possible to sell mythril elsewhere, such as across other regions.
But he had neither time nor flying mount. There were no teleportation circles or space gates in this broken place and they would be robbed on the way.
The place he appeared now belonged to a novice village and the most powerful guy was around level 60. If he really met one, he could struggle and resist for a while. If not, he was to kill him, William could also make some secret transactions…
But if he left the novice village, even Lautner’s hard work could not protect him.
“Lautner!”
“Lautner!!!” William’s sudden shout and agitated appearance made Odom take a few steps back. He thought there was a dirty relationship between them that was beyond friendship.
“Who said we must do business with humans? We can do business with Elves!” William knocked his head. He had been a player for so long in his past life that he was always using the living habits of a player and had forgotten the advantages of his identity.
Although the border town was far away from the City of Night, he knew that there was a prosperous town of Elves more than a 100 miles east, where many Blackleaf Elves lived.
He could sell some of the mythril to the Elves and use the gold coins to buy other materials from the human duchies.
It was a little troublesome, but the safety factor had greatly increased.
