    I saw that the leader was a veteran kobold. He was a kobold who followed Gu Gua when he was in the stubborn stone tribe. Now he has become a sergeant leader. As the captain, he leads a group of kobolds to patrol outside.  He was very excited when he saw the Great Elder and said loudly: "Great Elder! Spy, spy! We caught him!" Gu Gua let out an ooh and asked, "Where did the spy come from?" The kobold was so excited that he couldn't even speak.  Now that he could speak, he shouted: "Humanity! West! Humanity!! West!!" Gu Gua had no expression on his face.  Said: "Okay, you did a good job, leave him to me, go to the warehouse to get a piece of dried meat each, and then continue to patrol." The kobold was praised by Gu Gua, and every pore of it was filled with excitement.  Feeling comfortable, he nodded fiercely, shook his head and left with his younger brothers, continuing to patrol.  Gu Gua stretched out his hand and the rope on the human cavalry was untied. The human took a few deep breaths before calming down.  It turned out that the kobolds' binding techniques were not very good, and they almost strangled the human cavalryman to death.  "If I remember correctly, you are Hart's number one knight, Sim? Why don't you resist with fighting spirit?" Gu Gua asked lightly.  Sim bowed respectfully and said nothing.  Gu Gua sighed, thought a few times, and figured out some key points, so he asked: "Are you asking for something from me? Tell me, what is it?" Sim hesitated for a moment, and still gritted his teeth and said  : "We don't have enough food." Gu Gua suddenly thought of the time when Earl Longmeng was guarding the south.  He was managing the exits of the entire Vasa Basin. At that time, out of respect for the Mage Association, the Mage Association's caravans could still pass through Bloodstone Castle and reach the north.  Now Count Longmai is dead.  His son Boris Longma is still learning culture and bow and arrow skills at the Elf King's Court, and he should be on his way back before he has time to come back.  And even if he comes back, there is no way to perfectly unify the forces of Earl Longmai and inherit them perfectly.  You must know that Boris Longma has always been a noble man with extremely high self-control talents and contempt for the people around him. He is very unpopular with the people around him, otherwise Longma would not have sent him to the Elf King's Court to learn etiquette.  In the territory of Count Dragon Nightmare, Polis is not a leader worth looking forward to.  It can be said.  Even if he has an orthodox identity, it is impossible to integrate the forces around Bloodstone Castle in a short period of time.  The Bloodstone Castle¡¯s sphere of influence has been undercurrent, and it is no longer possible for normal business trips to advance deep into the North.  Moreover, such a big thing happened in the Warlock Guild, and the Mage Guild was implicated.  He also restrained himself a little, cautiously not meddling in the affairs of the Northland anymore, and not daring to directly send a caravan over again.  Under such circumstances, it was too difficult for Hart to purchase food resources from the Southern Magistrates Association.  However, the Northland has been in turmoil for a year and a half.  This also resulted in a year's food production not proceeding normally. After Viscount Luther started the war, it has been out of control and has not stopped. This year's food production season has also been missed.  So there is no doubt that this year we will fall into famine.  Through Hart¡¯s communication magic pattern, Hart learned that there is basically an arcane garden on the mage tower.  With the Arcane Garden, food production does not depend on actual land at all.  As long as the magic power is enough, food can be produced through the arcane garden, and it will be ripe every week.  Although the area is small, the advantage is that it is fast and can produce a large amount of food very quickly.  Now Hart has become the de facto leader of the remaining humans in Vasa North. As long as the food problem is solved and he survives this year, he is ready to hold a viscount coronation ceremony for himself.  Now is also a critical period for post-war recovery and reconstruction. He must keep an eye on his own territory without making any mistakes.  Now, on the one hand, Hart had turned his back on Gu Gua in the previous war, and he didn't know much about Gu Gua's current attitude. On the other hand, he didn't have time to do it himself, so he just sent his right-hand man, Knight Sim.  Come.  Knight Sim is obviously a very patient person. With his fighting spirit and warrior level, the group of kobolds just now couldn't hold him at all. Even the rope on his body broke as soon as he broke.  In other words, he was deliberately caught by the kobolds in order to show his sincerity.  Gu Gua glanced at him without any expression on his face.  To be honest, Gu Gua doesn¡¯t hold any grudge against human beings who parted ways with themselves in that situation.  If it were me, I would do the same thing.  But the problem is, how can he better obtain more benefits from these humans to ensure the development of the kobold tribe.  Living resources?  Obviously humans themselves are still lacking.  Money and gold?  These things are basically useless when they cannot be traded with the outside world.  Gemstones and bloodstones?  Well, this is a good thing, although the blood stone has? Generally speaking, it is somewhat toxic, but overall it is still an indispensable casting material.  After Gu Gua thought about it, he said to the Sim knight: "We do have some food, but not a lot. We are willing to trade with you. We only need gems and blood stones." After hearing this answer, Sim'an  Deciding to make up his mind, as long as he is willing to exchange, he took a deep breath and said: "Thank you for your kindness, we will raise gems and blood stones in exchange for food." Gu Gua waved his hands and said nonchalantly:  "No need to thank me, this is not mercy, this is a normal transaction. If you need anything in the future, you can also use gems and blood stones to exchange for it. The specific price is five times that of the previous execution." Xilu was silent for a moment  , said with some despair: "Why are the prices so expensive? How can we, the people in the north, survive?!" Gu Gua sneered and said: "Do you think food is so easy to buy now? I'm not blackmailing you. The current price of food  It¡¯s so high! You have no room for bargaining! If you don¡¯t want to buy it, just go and buy it elsewhere!¡± Sim nodded helplessly, his shoulders slumped.  Gu Gua's heart was filled with relief, and he said: "Humph! How about letting you betray me before! Now you know you regret it! If you are still my ally, maybe I can give this part to you to help you.  Recovering strength quickly, with this food, it is possible to take advantage of the chaos and conquer the entire land of Vasa! "But look at how you are now! You can only spend a lot of money to buy them!"  Food! Just go back and tell Hart! See how he reacts!" Sim lowered his head and nodded, immediately preparing to go back and report the matter, and also prepare enough gems and blood stones.  In exchange for life-saving food, they now have no room for bargaining. ?????????????????????????????????????????? Without gems and blood stones, we can just dig more, but without food, there is another starving man over there, and there is another less labor force.  Therefore, the price system is not a problem, although the price is too terrifying. The human beings who are about to be exploited lose their last bit of wealth and even use their silk underwear to pawn.  But the problem is that he can finally find a place to buy food!  As long as there is food, there is hope and a future!  "Also, we are not prepared to accept credit, so don't have any illusions." Gu Gua's voice sounded coldly behind him.  As soon as he said this, Sim's body shook violently and he became even more desperate.  Seeing Sim leaving on a skinny horse, Gu Gua thought for a moment and walked up to the third floor of the mage tower.  Because the supply of mana is now very low, the area remains at its most basic size instead of being as large as before.  As long as the magic power is sufficient, the area of ??this arcane garden can continue to expand. However, the larger the expansion, the greater the magic power consumed, which will be very uneconomical.  After going around in a circle, there are still wheat and other grain straws standing in the three fields of spring, summer and autumn, which have not been collected yet.  Gu Gua thought that if he had spare magic power, he could grow some wheat and other grains in exchange for gems and blood stones.  In the field with the lowest temperature, simulating winter, Gu Gua did not plan to plant other plants. He planned to plant ice-cold fruits. He first cultivated enough quantities, laid out magic circuits, and planted the thirty plants under his feet.  Let¡¯s take good care of the spiritual veins.  Moreover, the Arcane Garden is also a large consumer of magic power. Using the Arcane Garden at full capacity before the spiritual veins have been restored is even more foolish.  Thinking of this, Gu Gua walked down from the third floor and strolled to the front of the warehouse. He looked at the inventory of food in the warehouse and roughly calculated that the food was enough to feed all the kobolds for a year.  With gems, there will be more choices for the layout of the magic gathering circuit, and the quality will be higher and more reliable, and the restored magic power will be more abundant.  Moreover, bloodstone is also an indispensable component in this magic circuit, and is an important part of the kobold's ability to stimulate the dragon's blood.  Relatively speaking, now is the best time to extract human gems and blood stones. When summer comes, the wild vegetables and fruits all over the mountains and plains can also supplement some food rations. Humans can also hunt some wild animals to eat. At that time, the food gap will be  will be further reduced.  So Gu Gua thought about it for a while. If humans have enough gems, then he might as well trade three-quarters of the food for humans!  Once the spiritual veins are restored, they can immediately start planting some food properly. Anyway, with the Arcane Garden, the plants grow very quickly.  After doing this, Gu Gua still walked to the iron castle according to the original plan.  After passing the post guarding the cave entrance, the two kobolds saluted him in awe.  Gu Gua returned the greeting slightly and walked into the depths of the iron castle.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
