"Big brother, big brother, I said don't look at me like this, okay? I feel cold all over my body......"

Brian looked at Don with a horrified expression, and every time Don showed this expression, he felt like a livestock waiting to be slaughtered. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Especially now that I was hanging upside down from the ceiling......

Don suddenly laughed, "I have to thank you, let you go." ”

"What?"

Brian felt a chill in his back, except for a cold sweat in his head, and hurriedly said, "Big brother, don't be like this, I feel quite scary." ”

"Well, it looks like you still want to stay, so hang it for a while."

Tang En withdrew his hand, rubbed his chin and said, "The problem now is that the mine capacity can't keep up with the production demand......

Brian wanted to cry at this moment, and echoed Donn: "Yes, and we don't have any extra manpower to send to mine." ”

"Manpower......

Don smiled: "It's actually easy to find enough people, let's talk about this later, now let's talk about what we need to do here." ”

"You say, I'll listen."

"Tell Edgar to talk to him about the factory, squeeze out some manpower, and hurry up to produce the Magic Rig and the Mine Set, and we need to complete the technical upgrade of all the existing mines as soon as possible."

Don's plan is very simple, first of all, from the technical aspect, now there are not many mines that have completed the technical upgrading, and the magic energy machinery factory has squeezed out some time to produce mine kits, that is, magic energy drills, mine carts, tracks, cranes and the like, and then you can carry out technical upgrades to other existing mines.

After the technology upgrade, the production capacity can be increased by at least fifteen times under the existing manpower, which will definitely be enough in a short time.

As for transportation, regardless of the cost, Don can lay a small teleportation array for each mine, as long as it can supply Ellington transport personnel in and out, and by allocating space equipment, they can complete the transportation of ore in a short time.

Since the core of all development revolved around Ellington, he didn't even think about the issue of transporting ore to the outside world.

After all, if you want to sell to the outside world, you need to further improve the existing cargo transportation system, and perhaps you need to lay a dedicated freight railway line, which is too expensive in terms of time and cost.

Although the railway is the economic bloodline of the power hub and the capacity is amazing, the land of Plandal is sparsely populated, and the cost of laying the railway is too high, and the rigid demand for both passenger and freight transportation is not strong, so Tang En does not consider laying the railway for the time being.

And now there is no extra steel to make rails...... Maybe he'll think about it again if he needs it later.

"There are three plans to increase the amount of raw mineral energy, one is to upgrade the technology of existing mines, and the other is to increase the base number of miners."

Brian looked confused: "Didn't you say that the population is too small and the labor force is insufficient?" How can you still increase the number of miners? ”

"It's because the population is too small, but the labor force doesn't have to be humans, right?"

Don smiled like a demon, "I remember that when we were in the Slag Village, the old friends of the dwarves made a very deep impression on me. ”

"An old friend of the dwarves?"

Brian was stunned for a moment, then blurted out, "Kobold!?" ”

"Congratulations, you got it right."

Don snapped his fingers: "I remember that the village chief of Durum said that kobolds have amazing fertility and have a very strong need for food, which is why they frequently attack dwarven villages, right?" ”

"That's right......"

"And kobolds are natural miners, on par with dwarves' ability to mine, and their ability to burrow is even better than yours, right?"

Although Brian was a little baffled that Donn had put dwarves and kobolds together, he still said honestly, "That's true. ”

"Isn't that the end of it? Amazing fecundity, a huge number, natural miners, this is simply a labor force tailored for us! ”

"But," Brian couldn't help but remind Donn, "Big brother, you're ignoring the fact that kobolds are vile and have low intelligence, they hate almost all humanoids, especially dwarves and gnomes, and they will attack any intelligent creature that enters their territory, they literally eat everything, including captives, and most creatures don't trust them, how do you go about making them work for you honestly?" ”

"It's easy."

Don smiled: "You can't communicate with intelligent creatures, so you can communicate with them by taming wild beasts." ”

"Tame the beast?"

Brian was dumbfounded.

"Well," Donn thought for a moment, and the kobold was somewhat wise, so he added, "I think, maybe it's easier than taming a beast?" ”

While the Dwarves also have hunters who are good at taming beasts, Brian has no idea what Don is going to do.

"You don't have to worry about the specific things, you go back to Fort Hammer first, collect information on the area where the kobolds gather, and I'll go to you later."

Don snapped his fingers, and Brian fell off with an "oops", staggering to his feet from the ground.

Tang En glanced at him lightly: "What do you say you are talking nonsense all day long...... Ahh ”

Brian felt wronged: "I didn't spread rumors......"

Tang En said in a sly voice: "The next time you can't control your big mouth when you drink, I will let you never drink a drop of wine for the rest of your life!" ”

Less than a drop of alcohol in a lifetime!? It's worth it!?

Brian's face changed, and he said very seriously: "I swear! I will never tell the truth I know again! ”

"Huh? The truth? ”

Brian immediately changed his tune: "I mean, I know something. ”

"Go, go, go!"

Don didn't believe that this guy would get rid of that stinky problem so quickly, as far as he knew, the two stinky problems of dwarves and drunkenness would probably never be able to get rid of.

He didn't expect Brian to completely change his ways, he just hoped that he would be able to restrain a little in the future, this guy is really good at adding to the mess.

After Brian left, Don thought for a moment before teleporting directly to the Redstone Cave.

"Yo? My friend! Why did you remember to come to me as a guest—"

Before Barod could finish speaking, Don grabbed him and teleported directly to Sharhera.

"Honey!?"

Luolin, who was sitting on the throne bored and playing with silver hair, saw Don suddenly appear, immediately cheered and rushed over directly.

With a "snap", she lost her balance and fell to the ground again.

"Whew!"

Luo Lin covered her nose and floated directly, her long silver hair hanging down behind her like a waterfall, and she simply flew over.

"Honey, why are you here?"

However, just when she was about to pounce into Don's arms, the ghostly Lola took this position one step ahead, and her slender and white fingers gently caressed Don's cheek, with a charming smile on her face: "Did you miss me?" ”

"Queen Mother!"

Lorraine screamed in protest, "How can you do this! ”

"My daughter, you must admit that your charm is far worse than mine."

Don said a little unnaturally, "Don't be like this, I have something to talk to you about." ”

"Is there anything we can talk about slowly in bed...... Barod? ”

Lola only then noticed Barod next to her: "I'm sorry, your height hasn't changed at all, it's hard to notice you." ”

Barold's face turned very ugly: "You damn you-"

Considering that Donn was next to him, Barod stiffly changed his sentence: "-Bastard, do you want to fight me?" ”

"We've fought so many times, when have you ever won? If I hadn't let you, you'd have died I don't know how many times. ”

Lola is a legendary powerhouse, although Barod's strength is also very strong, but there is still a line away from the legend, so he has never won Lola, this time Lola opened the wound again, Barod was even more annoyed.

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, Don had no choice but to speak: "Okay, be quiet." ”

"Honey, I listen to you."

Done's words made Lola instantly become a well-behaved little lamb.

Even though Barrod's teeth itched with hatred, he closed his mouth at this time.

"What's going on in the underworld lately? The food supply is quite sufficient, right? ”

Don started with an irrelevant topic to ease the atmosphere, after all, both the dark elves and redstone dwarves were concerned about food right now.

Luo Lin hurriedly replied: "Of course, there is no problem, the food supply is very abundant, and our people can eat enough now, and they are very comfortable." ”

Our people?

Don felt awkward about the word she used.

"As the little queen said, everything is fine in the underground world now, the mining of light crystals is stable, and thanks to the abundant food, we are now further exploring the underground world," Barold said. ”

Lola spread her hands: "That's true, our lives would be better if it weren't for those pesky lizardmen......"

Don smiled: "This time I'm here to talk about the lizardman." ”

Lola was stunned: "What do lizardmen have to say......"

"It depends on what you think of them."

Tang En said with a smile: "Although they are like wild beasts, they are somewhat intelligent and easier to tame than wild beasts. ”

Now even Barod scratched his head: "You want to tame them?" What's the use of wanting a lizardman? ”

"Since they live in the underworld, it means they're very good at making holes, right?"

"That's right."

"With this kind of specialty, if you tame them and help me mine in the mines, wouldn't it be a very good labor force?"

Tang En said with a smile: "The lizardmen are also very strong in their reproductive ability, so on the one hand, they can reduce their harm to the underground world, on the other hand, they can also indirectly control them, and at the same time, it can also solve the problem of labor shortage under my command, which can be described as a lot of work." ”
