Chapter 1150 Go to a bigger market, go to a bigger mine
Della van Rossiaan stood quietly in front of the mine, his eyes lowered and he remained motionless.
The mountain wind howled, rushing all the way from the pass between the two mountains, rolling up her sleeves and the corners of her robes.However, none of the female elf's splendid silver hair danced wildly with the wind.
Obviously, the elf caster's control of his own energy has reached a very delicate level.
All was quiet.You Dian, Gretel, and Cerilla stood in a row, blocking the surrounding natives intentionally or unintentionally.
Bernard stood a little further away, with his arm resting on the restored Appa. The silver moon deer's huge body was like a high wall. Just standing there could suppress the nearby natives from daring to speak out:
Aya Manke, the servants brought by this small nobleman, the manager of the mine, the miners who have not yet entered the nearby mine, and even the peasant women who do rough work in the mine and cook and wash for the miners, all stand. In the distance, I probed my brain dozens of steps away.
Men and women, young and old, no one dared to make a sound.Even the alpacas lined up in a string, there are servants to appease, lest they scream, annoy these noble and strange outsiders.
——Although the alpaca is usually very quiet and rarely shouts...
Such a quiet environment is actually dispensable for a high-level spellcaster like Losia.However, it is undeniable that it does facilitate Gretel:
As soon as the earth element appeared, Gretel held his breath and extended his mental power.Well, although the earth element is getting farther and farther away from her, there has always been a close connection between it and Rosia.This way of connecting is very interesting...
Gretel felt it for a while, and then turned his attention to the earth element.After the earth element entered the mine, the whole thing seemed to melt away.In other words, like a drop of ink falling into clear water, it spreads out.
Gretel frowned.The appearance of the earth element diffused out, not evenly and stably spreading out, but one by one, layer by layer.From a roughly spherical shape, it quickly turned into a puffer fish shape, and then turned into an octopus shape...
This is, spread out along the veins?Or, along the gaps in the veins, spread out along the weak soil?
Gretel thought about it.The form of the earth element swimming in the veins seemed to provide him with a little inspiration, but he couldn't grasp it vaguely.as if...maybe...maybe...
The earth element swims and spreads.For a while, it expands to wrap something, and for a while, it shrinks and condenses, and continues to move.Up, down, left, right...
Grete watched with joy, not feeling at all that the time was passing little by little, and the sun was moving from one side of the head to the other.
The other people next to you are bored, can't walk, can't talk, and have to keep quiet. They're not spellcasters, and they can't use communication techniques to chat unlimitedly...
You Dian's eyes are on the nose, the nose is on the mouth, and the mouth is on the heart, just exercise his patience;
Cerilla looked left and right, and simply positioned her role on "Protecting Gretel", pressed the long knife at her waist as a decoration, and tried to shoot around, putting on a vigilant posture for him;
Bernard shifted his weight to his left foot at one moment and his right foot at another.If you don't want to pay attention to your image in front of outsiders, and just sit down, I'm afraid it's possible.
After a long time, Gretel opened his eyes and said in a low voice, "Okay." Serella let out a long sigh of relief, finally let go of her right hand, and couldn't wait to lean towards him:
"How? How?"
"Shh..."
Gretel put her finger on her lips, motioning her to keep quiet.Turning his eyes to the hexagram, soon, the earth element with a round head and a round head emerged from the center of the hexagram little by little.Be more hands-on, and start to communicate with Losia.
The language of the earth element, if it has language, is not within the scope of translation of [Language Comprehension].Losia obviously understood what the other party meant, nodded again and again, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and communicated quite smoothly with the other party.
Soon, the earth element raised a stubby arm and waved it upwards.The front of the arm exploded at once, turning into a cloud of yellow dust, but it was condensed and not scattered, and a sphere the size of a basketball was enveloped in the air.
"what is this?"
Gretel tried to guess.It didn't take long for him to see the answer: On the other arm of the earth elemental, a small ball of borax was condensed, only the size of two fists.
Then, the stubby arm turned to the other side and compared it with force.
This is... Can such a small piece of borax be extracted from such a large piece of ore?
Gretel felt that he probably understood the meaning of the earth element.It's a pity that he couldn't see the next communication, and he could only see Rosia nodded lightly and smiled at the earth element.Finally, take out a piece of amber and put it in the palm of the opponent.
The earth element clenched his fists, sank to the ground, and disappeared.Losia stood silent for a while, then turned to Youdian and others:
"Naru said that the reserves of this vein are not large, at most five hundred tons. If necessary, it and its companions can help extract it. To extract all the moon sand, in addition to our support for all the magic power, also It takes ten amber the size of a thumb."
This……
Prospecting to ask for soil elements, mining to find soil elements... Very good and powerful, as expected of the elves, powerful spells can really do whatever they want...
Gretel grumbled silently.After complaining, I started to quickly calculate:
500 tons of ore requires ten thumb-sized ambers. If you want to pour 10 tons of borax in this wave, how many amber are needed? 2000?
Is the inventory of elves so rich?Or other gems can also be used to pay the bill?What is the conversion ratio to amber?One to one?
Or, between gems and gems, not according to the size, but according to the power contained within?
"Five hundred tons." You Dian was concerned about another thing:
"It's a little less, this place can only be used as an alternative... It's better to find a relatively large ore vein and get [-] tons in one go... It's really troublesome to mine mine again and again..."
Of course, even with [-] tons or [-] tons of ore, he couldn't provide the power to work with the earth element. Even if he did, the mined borax wouldn't be able to drag it down.
However, if there is such a large mine, Elder Fahim can be excused to make a trip.In the hands of Legend, there are still some good goods...
"Okay, I wrote down this place. Lucia, thank you for your hard work, let's go to the next place!"
The next place is a small city.Although in Gretel's eyes, this shit is not much bigger than the town, but, according to Aya Manke's introduction, this is indeed a city:
"This is Bamba City, the largest city nearby, and the largest market nearby." When deciding on the location of the next stop, Aya Manke introduced to them:
"If you can't buy what you want here, then you can only go to the capital..."
They went all the way west along the valley.To Grete's surprise, the amount of water in the river here is quite large, and it can almost be called turbulent: even when walking on a high mountain road, the sound of murmuring water still kept pouring into their ears.
But the valley is still too steep, with sparse vegetation, to retain much water.For this reason, people have built many irrigation canals, allowing the upstream water to spread along the irrigation canals and pour into the farmland.
Large expanses of cotton fields spread out along the river valley, and soft cotton bolls cover the hillsides.Serella stepped forward curiously, picked one and opened it, very surprised:
"Gret, this cotton is pink!"
"That's right, the cotton here is pink." You Dian took a few steps slower and turned back to approach:
"Not only pink, but also blue, yellow, all kinds of colors. Natural colored cotton - tell you a secret, these various colors of cotton are idle and bored by an elf senior, It was born. Do you want any other color?"
Serella nodded quickly.Natural colored cotton!Although she doesn't wear cotton clothes very much, these soft and plump cotton bolls are very interesting to look at!
Youdian smiled slightly.He pointed at Gretel casually:
"Come on, tell him what color you want, and let him give birth to you."
Gretel, who was suddenly caught in a pot:? ? ?
I haven't offended you recently!
Why did this job hit me all of a sudden?
"You are also a natural walker." You Dian spread his hands confidently:
"Nature walker, spell caster, can produce various colors of cotton, can you still be stumped? - You should also find some plants to practice your skills. The medicine that Elder Fahim usually uses can't be collected for a while. He was born out of nowhere!"
Gretel turned his head silently.You said, if there is a cure for malaria or something, I will find a bunch of Artemisia annua—or other Artemisia annua to discuss and ask them to enrich me with artemisinin, that’s fine.In order to look good for a while, let me spawn colored cotton?
Brother, it is not so!
In a farming society, the direction of the river indicates the direction of the gathering place.They walked along the valley for two days, and there was a city unfolding before them.
Contrary to Grete's expectations, this city named "Bamba" has no huge stone squares or towering temples. Instead, there are huge mounds——
Larger and flatter mounds than Grete had seen from the bison tribes in the back of the New World.
There are no stone carvings, no reliefs on houses or columns, and no paintings.What caught Grete's eye was a variety of colorful textiles:
Dozens of one-inch-wide ribbons surround wooden pillars in all directions;
The bright flags were erected on the roofs, rattled by the wind;
Curtains of bright patterns hang from the eaves, covering the wide window lattices...
In contrast, the pedestrians passing by the roadside, especially those poor people with yellow and emaciated faces, have only a dull white color on the fabrics on their bodies.
Whoever is covered in Luo Qi is not a silkworm breeder.
