"Now Molten Iron Clan is like a beggar holding a golden bowl and begging."
Garos thought silently in his heart.
Selling raw mineral deposits in exchange for processed products will result in countless losses, but with the current situation of the Molten Iron Clan, trade can only be carried out in this way.
This is also the current situation in Ser Wilderness, Borderlands, Permafrost Tundra and other areas.
The alchemy industry is backward and can only endure layers of exploitation, selling domestic resources at low prices to obtain expensive processed products, while countries with developed alchemy industries can gather a large amount of basic resources through trade.
The nobles of Lothern Federation like to call the wilderness clan Beast or barbarians.
This kind of mentality is the contempt of developed areas for backward areas.
"The status quo is difficult to change. We can only hope for future development."
After staying in Sulfur Hills for a while, Garos explained to the red dragon Samantha the importance of the alchemy industry. If they cannot develop a strong alchemy industry, their wealth will be lost every day.
When I think about the wealth that I have lost every day.
The red dragon gnashed his teeth and wished he could turn one day into two and devote all his time to the development of the alchemy industry.
This can greatly motivate her.
With Dragonkin's inertia, if there were no corresponding incentives, she would definitely spend three days fishing and two days drying the net.
After leaving Sulfur Hills, Garos did not return directly to Dragon Valley.
He spent almost all his time training and evolving. Today, he rarely wanted to relax, so he decided to patrol his territory.
After Sulfur Valley.
Garos passes by Giant Ruined Fort.
It still looks like a ruin, but some of the previously decayed and cracked foundations have been replaced with new stone slabs.
Giant Ruined Fort is located in a good geographical location. Iron Dragon Sorog wants to rely on the relatively complete foundation here to renovate and rebuild it to create a fortress suitable for giant lifeforms to live in.
At the beginning.
He brought a group of his family members and asked them to quarry and polish the stones for construction. However, not long after the start, because the stone mines found were too small, there was no source of stones, and the fortress stopped working.
Later.
Iron Dragon personally searched and found no good stone deposits, but accidentally found Gray Magnetite, which led to subsequent events. After that, Iron Dragon Sorog fell asleep, and Giant Fortress was still in a state of shutdown.
"When Sorog wakes up, let him supervise and be responsible."
Garos just looked at it for a while.
Supervising and urging his family members to build a fortress, such matters should not be handled by him, the king of the Molten Iron Clan.
Soon after, Garos came to Armored Rhino Ranch and saw Ogre taming Armored Rhino.
Under the watchful eyes of many of his companions, a Ogre elite warrior spat out the animal bones he had chewed in his mouth, and walked towards the center of the paddock with his several-meter-tall body like a mountain of meat.
A Armored Rhino covered in bone armor was pawing the ground anxiously, and every time its hooves as big as a bowl fell down, it stirred up a cloud of dust.
Its size is not much larger than Ogre, and it is not fully grown yet, so it is the right age for taming.
"Come on, you beast!"
Ogre stepped on the ground with its legs, and half of its calf sank into the soil. This action seemed provocative to Armored Rhino, just like they like to dig the ground with their hooves when threatening their enemies.
Armored Rhino was enraged. It lowered its head and aimed its thick and sharp horns at Ogre's abdomen.
Ogre roared loudly, and grabbed the rhino's horns with two big palm-like hands, wrestling with it head-on.
As Beast roared, the muscles in Ogre's whole body swelled, and the blood vessels wriggled under the skin like earthworms.
Armored Rhino's front hooves began to tremble, and his thick neck was bent a little bit. The onlookers Ogre banged their weapons frantically, and the ground shook under their stamping feet.
Finally.
After a few minutes, Armored Rhino was knocked down by Ogre.
When the ferocious beast stood up again, it looked at Ogre with a little more fear in its eyes.
Instead of pursuing the victory, Ogre took out a salt block from his waist, squatted on the ground and waved to Armored Rhino.
When Armored Rhino finally lowered his head and licked the salt block in Ogre's hand, other Ogre who were watching cheered, celebrating that their companions had successfully tamed Armored Rhino.
Now more than a year has passed since the war with the Bloodhoof Clan.
Since taking over Armored Rhino Ranch, Star-Shattering Hammer Warband quickly added a new unit - heavy knights, and their number has grown steadily in more than a year.
They are different from the light cavalry of Red Iron Cavalry. They do not have very good mobility and are completely positioned as heavy cavalry.
As the heavy cavalry vanguard of Star-Splitting Hammer, when knights and ferocious beast mounts are covered in heavy armor and charge forward in frontal combat, they can crush and tear down the enemy's line like a scourge.
"Armored Rhino that can be tamed can be used as mounts, while those that cannot be tamed are a good source of meat. However, their breeding and growth are not simple, and the pastures also need more formal management."
Garos did not land, but silently watched and examined among the thick clouds high in the sky.
Molten Iron Clan's use of pastures like Armored Rhino is currently extremely inefficient, but Garos feels there is still a lot of room for development.
For example.
The strongest and outstanding individuals among Armored Rhino are selected as breeding rhinoceros.
Let them optimize their reproduction from generation to generation through artificial intervention, or capture some other rhinoceros-like beasts and monsters for cross-breeding.
There are also formulating "milk powder", discovering the best ratio of grass and blood food, shortening the growth cycle of young rhinoceros, etc.
And the eliminated individuals can not only be used as food.
Their rhino horns, bones, armor, and even feces can actually be collected in categories, and each has its own use.
Garos has a general idea about pasture management like this, but it is troublesome to implement it in detail. He has no time to deal with it. He will wait until a smarter Kin Leader is chosen to take charge of it in the future.
Garos left Armored Rhino Ranch and continued to fly and patrol in the sky.
The latest ⊥ little ⊥ talk ⊥ is first posted on ⊥⊥⊥!
He flapped his wings, and the shadow cast by his body on the ground passed over each base area. It was not until the night got darker that he returned to Dragon Valley.
At the same time, through this careful inspection.
Garos realized: Although Molten Iron Clan is now not small, many places are still in their infancy, very immature, and there is still a lot of room for growth.
"I seem to be still in the stage of primitive accumulation."
Garos looked up at the shining twin moons and thought to himself.
Red Iron Dragon didn't feel impatient, and was very calm. However, at this moment, a strong sense of sleepiness suddenly surged into his heart, sweeping over it like a tide, making his eyelids become heavier.
Garos was not surprised by the onset of sleepiness.
The teenage Dragon Sleep is coming.
He had issued an order in advance. During this period, Molten Iron Clan would restrain his minions and develop silently. He would not show his talents again until he wakes up.
After that.
Garos called Red-Silver Dragon first.
"You want Dragon Sleep?"
Looking at the sleepy Red Iron Dragon, Deborah asked.
Garos nodded and said to Red-Silver Dragon, "Deborah, you are the only Metal Dragon among Dragon Valley, but compared to other Evil Dragon--"
He suddenly pressed Red-Silver Dragon's shoulder armor with his front paws and said, "--I trust you more."
"You are a reliable companion. I, Dragon Sleep, completely rely on you to protect me this time. Don't let any creature get close to me or disturb me."
His expression was serious and solemn.
Red-Silver Dragon It was the first time that I felt so valued.
She was stunned for a moment, then nodded fiercely and tightened her grip on the dragon's claws. "Don't worry, I guarantee you will survive the Dragon Sleep period safely and soundly."
Similarly, Garos follows the same method, and makes appropriate modifications according to the characters of different dragons, and informs them one by one.
After giving the major Kin Leader some precautions.
Garos just went to the depths of Dragon Valley.
Behind Iron Dragon Sorog's sleeping place, there is a newly opened cave.
Garos entered inside, gathered the dragon wings and entangled his body, the wing membrane wrapped around his vitals like a curtain, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.
"I don't know how long Dragon Sleep will have to sleep this time, but at least I will become Young Adult Dragon. I hope there won't be too many variables during this period." He thought to himself.
The childhood period of Dragon Sleep is usually three to five years, and he slept for six years.
Juvenile stage Dragon Sleep is longer, about five to eight years.
Garos estimates that his Dragon Sleep time will most likely exceed eight years.
This length of time is not long in Dragonkin's concept of time, but it is enough for many changes to occur in the outside world, bringing about variables and accidents.
This is something Garos doesn't like, but can't control.
"The ethereal luck will favor me once."
The sleepiness is getting thicker, Garos thought drowsily, and gradually fell asleep.
