11, building a house
"Yes!
we are brothers!"
Campbell said boldly.
"very good!"
Charlotte was somewhat disappointed.
Campbell, a greedy guy, still did not give his "loyalty".
But I didn't pay much attention to it.
His previous reputation was not good, he did not appear to be too smart, and he was not an ideal target for the goblins to rely on.
Now, under the coercion of the giant demons he brought with him, it would be good if the goblin was willing to do something for him.
Even if you are an orc, you have to learn to be content.
Looking at the sword seized from the mercenary group in the tauren's arms, he couldn't help but sigh, "We have the tools to build a house."
There is a lack of salt and iron at the bottom of the Bolin Valley. Stone tools and bone awls are mainly used for farming and hunting. There is no industry, no air pollution, and there will be no economic crisis caused by overproduction. Green mountains and clear waters are completely in line with the path of sustainable ecological development.
.
Even simple tools such as axes, saws and chisels for building houses are hard to find.
The axes sold by human caravans cost at least three gold coins each. It would not be worth the price of an ax if Charlotte and his family were sold as slaves.
In human terms: four-legged kodos are hard to catch, while two-legged orcs are everywhere.
During the war with humans ten years ago, the orcs in the Bolin Valley traveled thousands of miles and actively participated in zero-dollar shopping activities, and the orcs improved their living environment.
In the human city, there is nothing that cannot be dismantled, including iron-containing pots and pans and factory machinery.
Those that cannot be used directly are sent to the blacksmith to be remade.
After the war, the entire Bolin Valley took on a new look.
The father of the minotaur Opulo was so arrogant that he changed his name directly. He no longer called him "Luopu", but asked everyone to call him Staedtler.
From a "serious and responsible blacksmith" he suddenly became "the most skilled blacksmith in the Bolin Valley".
Many tribesmen died in this war, but some tribes also tasted the benefits.
If it weren't for the wolf knights sent by the king to appease the various tribes in the kingdom, giving repeated orders and hanging street lights if they were disobedient, the orcs would have spontaneously started war with humans again.
When Charlotte went home yesterday, she saw a two-meter-long rail at the corner of the kang. It was the treasure of his father Xi Duo. His eldest brother Kaiser was a mercenary and was not willing to build one for him.
Prepare to keep the sword as a family heirloom.
Charlotte doesn't dare to move casually. Her father, who has strong limbs and is hot-tempered and impulsive, will really fight him to the death.
With so many children, it doesn't seem to matter if one of them dies.
I got a sudden windfall tonight and got so many swords. I can ask the minotaur father Staedtler to make them again and get some axes, saws and chisels.
Then he has the conditions to build a house!
Neither home nor the tauren Opulo's place is an ideal place to live.
"Charol, have you chosen a place?"
the goblin asked.
Charlotte pointed in the east direction and said, "Downstream of the waterfall over there, I am not only planning to build a house there, but I am also planning to open up wasteland and cultivate land there."
As a qualified orc street runner, he is very familiar with the entire Bolin Valley. During today's hunting, he walked through some places again, which further confirmed his thoughts.
He wants to build a house on the hot spring!
It’s not the kind of fake hot spring room in the island country that doesn’t change the water for hundreds of years and is blown up by the self-media, but the bacteria exceed the standard!
It is a live hot spring in the mountain stream that emits heat all year round.
At least it won’t freeze in the winter!
"Charol, this is a smart decision!"
Campbell praised.
"Don't be idle, pay attention to the mercenary camp on the other side of the river. They have suffered a loss here, and they may not be so willing to give up."
Charlotte said worriedly, "If there is any situation, report it in time."
At least there is a chance to escape.
In the Internet age, keyboard warriors can get kicked into pieces if they don't pay attention.
What's more, unscientific aliens can easily kick titanium alloys.
Don't seek to blow up the sky, just seek stability.
Safety first!
Low-key, low-key, low-key!
Be careful, be careful, be careful again!
"Those human mercenary groups are cunning and treacherous, and I will never let their schemes succeed!"
The goblin promised emphatically.
The bonfire continued to burn, and from time to time strings of golden sparks were raised, flying to the top and floating in the sky.
"Go back to sleep."
Charlotte didn't say anything more to them, greeted the tauren, and returned to the lake cabin.
After waking up, he directly asked the Minotaur to go to Staedtler's blacksmith shop with his sword in hand.
Seeing these swords, Staedtler didn't ask why and just cursed.
He thought that his sons Oprah and Charlotte were doing business without capital again.
It was okay if the tauren didn't explain, but after he explained, he was scolded even more severely!
How dare you capture a human mercenary group!
Might as well intercept the caravan!
"Charol,"
Staedtler held up the hammer and almost hit Charlotte on the body, "Mother of the Earth, please don't lead my son to do such stupid things again!"
In the hearts of parents, their children are the most well-behaved and sensible. If the children make mistakes, they will be led astray by others.
"Uncle, if they want to kill us, why don't you resist?"
Charlotte smiled bitterly.
"Why!"
Schroeder sighed and finally said, "I will give you two axes, two saws, and ten chisels to cut the stone, and the remaining iron will be considered as wages."
"Thanks!"
Charlotte let out a long breath.
Before the next evening, Staedtler and his two sons had prepared the tools Charlotte needed.
Charlotte and the tauren Opuro went directly to the hot springs. Campbell commanded the giant demons and goblins and had cleared a large open space.
With axes and saws, the goblins began to cut down trees and cut stones in the forest, and the giant demons were responsible for transporting them.
"Starting from my birthplace underground,
Born well, raised by a perfect mother...
ah,
biru river,
Flow forward...
The purpose of the journey has been achieved, and right in front of us is the land of Mother Earth's gift..."
The goblins sang happily while working.
Even the giant demon was infected and followed behind, shouting, "Pah, bah, bah..."
Charlotte yawned and lay under a poplar tree. The moss was soft and the leaves rustled above her head, reflecting the last golden touch of the sky.
Three days later.
There is an additional five-room house in the mountain stream with a front and rear yard, covering an area of more than a thousand square meters, and the beams of each room are more than ten meters high.
Charlotte's eyes filled with excitement.
For the first time in two lives, I own my own house.
Best of all, it didn’t cost a dime!
Many orcs passing by were stunned.
This is comparable to the patriarch's house.
Charlotte was soaking in the hot spring, leaning on the steps, and kept putting wild grapes into her mouth.
"Go pick more."
Chapter completed!
