Chapter 111**
Led by the goblin profiteer, Goron visited the secret underground factory located in the haunted gold mine area...
This factory is not built inside the haunted gold mine, but makes full use of abandoned houses and collapsed public sheds built in a disorderly manner in the nearby area to dig secret underground fortifications. It has to be said that the idea of the goblin merchant is really good. After all, it is hard for ordinary people to imagine that there is a large underground mine nearby and idle space can be used at will, and people will spend time and effort to re-excend an underground building. Inertial thinking and the reputation of haunted gold mines are well known far and wide. Even if someone comes to investigate here, he will only focus his attention on the gold mine, and will not pay attention to the abandoned buildings with messy divisions on the ground. Even if someone notices that the ground is empty, he will only naturally imagine that it is part of the haunted gold mine and will not go too far.
Moreover, according to the goblin merchants, there are no strange and harsh phenomena inside the haunted mine cave in these re-excavated caves. This is a more interesting situation, at least it means that it is cursed...or it is perhaps not this land that should be protected, but just the "gold mine" itself.
This secret factory is currently in a state of shutdown, with no one inside, but there is a complete set of equipment and tools. Goron has never seen it before, and even heard the things called "steam machinery" in front of him from the story. Originally, he thought that the most complex thing should be a large loom, but after he saw these steel monsters in front of him who were called steam forging presses, steam grinders, etc. by goblin merchants. Goron truly felt the true meaning of "reading thousands of books is worse than traveling a hundred miles" in the mouth of the beautiful snake spirit.
"These iron guys are driven by the rich black stone and black oil deposits near Haishi Bay. Those things that can only burn fire are cheap here. This is also an important reason why the Beidi Bear family chose me as a partner. That's right, every steam machine here is made and assembled using the technology and important parts provided by the Beidi Bear family. These machines are very simple to operate and only need to be trained to operate. The only thing that is lacking at present is a lot of politeness and carefulness, and must
It is necessary to have very reliable workers, and this is the most depressing thing I have now. The employees who were originally arranged here were candidates for reserve workers, and it is also the last test to test whether they are strict, but you have seen it. They are all gone now. Although I can just deduct all their salaries, how can I start work within the limited time of the contract signed by North Bear and me? Damn it. Why is it so difficult for us, Takin Chamber of Commerce to recruit some workers?"
The reason why goblin merchants cannot hire workers is too simple. Although he has excellent business intuition and amazingly accurate investment vision, who would be willing to work for him who is as stingy as him? In addition, the current economy of Luochaogang is developing rapidly. As long as you are hardworking and healthy young people, you will not lack employment opportunities. Almost every guild factory is short of people, and there are too many choices they can make. Although the employment conditions offered by the Takin Chamber of Commerce are not low, they cannot resist the boss thinking about how to deduct the wages of employees all day long. As batches of resigned workers who have worked for green shorts, in the end, they have not received a single son to promote the goblin businessmen for free. Now even if goblins mention the recruitment benefits to others several times, there will not be many people willing to work under him.
Goron is now tied to the same chariot as the profiteer. If his Takin Chamber of Commerce will encounter trouble, then Goron's small ogres who are temporarily living in the haunted gold mine will not be able to live well. Although under Goron's instruction, these little ogres are willing to help Takin Hillman accumulate wealth. They are both first-class as guard thugs or miners, and under the mysterious influence of the haunted gold mine, they seem to have improved their minds, but with the ogre's huge size and thick hands and feet, they are simply unable to be competent for the operators of these steam machinery. This requires patience and dexterity.
Thinking of this, Goron suddenly remembered the women in Laogang. The old street of the big boss Cassandra is not just a group of beautiful young prostitutes, but also many elderly people and children. Of course, there will be many women who are not good at being prostitutes. In the entire Luochao Port, only Cassandra would not abandon these "wastes", but for this reason, these people's loyalty to her is absolutely fine. If she was asked to find a group of reliable workers to assist the goblins, she might be able to solve a difficult problem for the old street and the Takin Chamber of Commerce at the same time.
Just as Goron was thinking about this matter in detail, Takin took Goron to a table, pointed to an object placed on it and said, "Look, this is the new weapon commissioned by the North Bear Family. This is a sample provided by Cool Bear, and my task is to copy it in large quantities within a limited time."
Goron took the weapon and looked carefully. It was a black iron pillar that looked like a chimney. One end was a hollow iron barrel like a muzzle, while the other end was completely sealed. There were some very complex and sophisticated metal mechanical structures. If you had to describe it, it was like a super musket that had been removed and magnified dozens of times.
"This thing is called the 'canon mortar'. It is an airborne weapon designed for dwarf steam tanks and steam helicopters. Its caliber and power are dozens or hundreds of times that of ordinary muskets. Even a high-level powerful man with fighting spirit and dissociated from the seal of the gods will be dead if he is hit from the front by this guy. The only pity is that this guy's warhead cannot be infused with magic at the moment. Otherwise, even a fifth-level war king-level monster would run away immediately when he saw a lot of this thing..."
Without paying attention to the goblin merchant’s chatter, Goron suddenly interrupted the goblin after playing with this thing carefully and said, “Why can this thing be used only on things called ‘tanks’ and ‘helicopters’? Can’t we ogres use it?”
"Aren't you talking nonsense? This thing weighs hundreds of pounds. Ordinary people need to use the strength to sway it. Who else can use it as a weapon in their hands..."
Speaking of this, the goblin merchant suddenly opened his eyes wide, because in front of him, Goron was holding an oversized iron guy almost as thick as his waist in his hand, looking around like holding a piece of branch.
"Fuck, why did I forget that you ogres are all monsters with great strength..."
