The strongest miner in the universe

Chapter 695 The Last Chance

"The shortest one here is the City Lord's Mansion, and the tall buildings around it are all fortifications!" Maverick also said with a smile on his face.

He was very satisfied to see his eldest brother in shock.

"Patriarch, the mine here has been hollowed out, so it was cleaned out and carved into a building!" Mo Dahu said.

"The main reason is that the population is increasing too fast, and only this way can they be resettled quickly!" Mo Erhu said.

"Patriarch, don't worry, our fortifications are well done, like eight oxen crossbows, there are many on every tall building!" Mo Sanhu also said.

Gao Jiuding nodded in satisfaction, the tidy streets, the isolated large tracts of spiritual fields, the tea trees dotted all over the surrounding mountains, and the most spectacular are the large buildings on both sides of the original valley.

He really didn't expect that Yihu and the others could use rocks tens of meters high to cut and carve complete buildings directly.

Following Yihu and the others, they came to a low building in the center, and even if it was the shortest, this building was ten meters high and had three floors.

Walking in, Gao Jiuding saw the exquisite runes on the inner wall, which were slightly different from the runes on the bricks of the city wall. These were solidified runes taught by him, which were specially used to strengthen the building.

No wonder they dared to build high-rise stone buildings. It turned out that they were familiar with the solidified magic circle. They were able to enlarge the solidified magic circle at will and burn it on a large building. This really surprised Gao Jiuding.

With a palm strike, the force of Qi and blood shot out for more than ten meters, and hit the wall with a bang.

The wall was attacked, and Gao Jiuding could clearly see a flash of light!
With just a flash of spiritual light, he regained his calm. His all-out attack on the fourth level of blood refinement had no effect on that wall at all.

"Our development time is still a bit short. When we have time, we will wrap everything here with spirit wood. At that time, no one can easily see the magic circle we have burnt!" Maverick said at this time.

Gao Jiuding looked at the hall, is this a kind of city hall?
There are many people around, all of them are working!

After stopping for a while, Gao Jiuding discovered that the staff working here are all related to construction, like the Imperial Beast Academy, which should be the busiest department now, and it is also a department that Gao Jiuding has never heard of.

With the increase of all kinds of monsters in their hands, especially the increase of bulls and camels, the appearance of the Royal Beast Academy became inevitable.

Of course, the Royal Beast Academy is not just about managing mounts. Their main job now is to manage ordinary cattle and sheep.

The rainy season is coming, and the pasture harvest is a good opportunity to expand the cattle and sheep population. If this rainy season is missed, there are so many of them, and they will definitely be hungry afterwards!

Gao Jiuding wandered around in this spacious hall, carefully understanding the work in the city.

As long as there is something to do below, they will come here to handle it. There are people working here for the various functional departments he set up.

In addition to the Imperial Beast Academy, there are Tea Academy, Salt and Iron Academy, Fulu Academy, Shennong Academy, etc. These are the busiest departments now.

"Patriarch, there are two rooms for you, one is underground and the other is on the second floor!" After walking around with Gao Jiuding, Mo Dahu said again.

"Well, that's right, the ground floor is used for cultivation, and the second floor is used for office work. You guys are very thoughtful!" Gao Jiuding expressed his satisfaction.

Although he has some strength now, he has always been very timid. The three-story small building is surrounded by many tall buildings, which increases safety.

And working on the middle floor is much safer!
If it wasn't for working underground, it would seem too timid, and Gao Jiuding even wanted to work underground.

This world is still very dangerous, and the more dangerous people or monsters can fly.

There is no defensive formation here, as long as it is on the ground, it is not very safe!

Entering the second floor, this floor is very luxuriously decorated, solid wood furniture, monster blankets, even the walls are no longer bare stone walls, but are hung with various beautiful monster furs, and some monster beast pendants .

For example, beautiful monster feathers, jade-like monster bones, and some strange and beautiful monster heads!

Sitting on a large comfortable leather chair, there are plates of spiritual fruits next to her.

All kinds of strange fruits exude a strange fragrance, which Gao Jiuding has never seen before.

The aura it emits is even better than the spiritual fruits he cultivated in the Tiandi Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda. This is a unique advantage. Compared with the demon star, his pagoda space has almost time to accumulate.

Of course, these fruits are not uncommon. As the territory they occupy becomes bigger and bigger, the spiritual things they harvest will naturally increase. For example, the fragrance of flowers with traces of aura comes from a vase middle.

He is a high-ranking man, so he can also enjoy this kind of enjoyment, and it was arranged by his subordinates, so he doesn't need to order it himself.

Soon, a pot of spiritual tea was served, which is now a specialty of their place and a commodity traded in bulk. With this spiritual tea, they have fed 10 people.

After taking a sip of tea, Gao Jiuding looked at the people around him again. At this point, the discussion really started.

Maverick gave a general report on the recent developments, while Mo Dahu briefly explained the current soldiers and population under their banner.

After hearing this report, Gao Jiuding knew it well.

Yihu was his brother, the four Mo family brothers were the first mercenaries he recruited, and the other 60 were cronies brought from the sect.

In addition to these people, a lot of people have been added, the largest number are wolf robbers and tribal cavalry, of course, there are also some refugees who were later accepted by Mavericks.

Among the wolf thieves, Gao Jiuding selected eighteen heroes, all of whom are now given the surname Gao, and they can be regarded as his direct retainers.

A large number of wolf thieves in his hands have all recovered at this time, and the masters among them have also begun to emerge.

However, Gao Jiuding did not reuse these people, but assigned them to the eighteen retainers with the surname, that is, Gao Dalang, Gao Shiba and others.

This group of wolf thieves was considered the mainstay of Gao Jiuding's subordinates. Apart from them, the branch of the Golden Wolf Tribe was the fastest to integrate into their forces.

The masters of this small tribe were all killed by Gao Jiuding, and the rest were originally shepherds. Gao Jiuding gave them a chance, and they are now the most loyal group of people to Gao Jiuding.

In addition to these own people, there is now another big force here, which is the group of refugees.

In principle, this group of refugees belonged to the Zongmen, or they belonged to the people under the jurisdiction of Zongmen Qianshan Fort, but now, they came to the territory of Tulongzhai to seek a living.

These people can also be regarded as Gao Jiuding's subjects, but they are free citizens, not Gao Jiuding's mercenaries, nor his retainers, but the wealth of the sect, which makes Gao Jiuding unhappy.

More than a dozen tall, red-faced men did not look like refugees who had gone through hardships. Now, seven of them refused to accept it, and eight of them stared at this side angrily. It seemed that they were very dissatisfied with Gao Jiuding and the others. .

"What's the matter with those refugees?" Gao Jiuding moved his arms very vaguely, as if he was holding a crossbow.

"They all know technology, and the requirements are relatively high. Now we can only use it. They still want us to allocate land!" Maverick's eyes lit up, and then looked at Mo Dahu. Mo Dahu blinked, and did not Say what.

"Then let the Zongmen assign them, what's the trouble?" Gao Jiuding said with a smile, Yihu is still very smart.

"You seem to be a member of the sect, we belong to Marshes!" At this moment, a strong man said.

Gao Jiuding looked at him, and the people there were all strong men, their cultivation was not low, and most of them were on the seventh or eighth level of blood refining.

Under Gao Jiuding's banner, this kind of strength is not bad.

It's a pity that they were dressed in torn sackcloth and didn't even have a piece of animal skin. It can be said that they were miserable. Just like that, they still had the confidence to hate Gao Jiuding.

The cultivation of this group of people is still a bit low, and the number of this group of refugees is a bit large, so this group of refugees has shown a tendency to become too big.

This was not what Gao Jiuding wanted to see, so he lowered his head to hide the murderous intent in his eyes.

"Yes, I also belong to Marshetton, and so do you. So we are from the same school? Since you have come to me, I can't let you have enough to eat. Then follow the current rules and help me work. , I'll take care of your meals, it's fair and reasonable!" Gao Jiuding said calmly.

"It's not fair. We pay too much and get too little. Since it is employment, it must be fair and reasonable. We not only need to eat, but also need materials for cultivation, which is legitimate labor remuneration!" Han Road.

"The request is very reasonable, Mo Dahu, how many people have we hired? Didn't we give them reasonable remuneration?" Gao Jiuding said with a smile.

Mo Dahu said: "All of them are employed, right? There are no old or weak among them, because they all died in the previous disasters, and the rest are able to work. They are still physically strong and assigned different jobs. Tasks, some people are going to farm, some are going to mine rocks, some are going to pick tea, whatever you can do, just do it!"

"What about the reward?" Gao Jiuding continued to ask.

Mo Dahu said: "In the beginning, they were very weak and couldn't do much work. It was agreed at the time that we would take care of our food and fill our stomachs, and they would help us with our work. Now that our bodies have recovered, our city is also in danger. The construction is complete, it seems that they are no longer needed!

That's why we didn't pay them. However, although they are no longer needed, they are still helping us with some chores, such as weeding, catching insects, carrying, and some light work of picking tea leaves! "

Gao Jiuding said with a smile: "Health is good, and our employment relationship is over. It's the end of benevolence. Did you hear that? I heard that the sect has three great monks. After that, you go to them. They are in charge of the swamp. The defense over there, your land, should be distributed by them, well, you can leave now."

After finishing speaking, Gao Jiuding waved to the dozen or so people in the outermost circle, and let them leave very simply. This was the last chance for them.
