I Became a Progenitor Vampire

Chapter 139 Little Jones’ Gratitude

While the Dawn Sect was making progress, the other side was not idle either.

The blacksmith shop also took great pains to make mining tools for the Cyclops.

With the help of hundreds of vampire mages, nearly two thousand pieces of iron tools were re-cast, and five sets of mining tools suitable for the Cyclops were barely cast.

The huge pickaxe was pressed on the ground like an engineering hammer, with a six- or seven-blade long piece of wood that could be hugged by a person as the handle.

The most eye-catching thing was the giant hammer, which was placed on the ground and directly pressed cracks into the bluestone floor.

If it were not in the hands of the Cyclops, it would be no problem for the army to attack the city wall with this kind of thing.

When Li De saw this scene, the corner of his mouth twitched fiercely, and he looked at Harrison with a meaningful look.

If he really listened to Harrison's suggestion and put Cyclops in the army, just the armor needed to make these big guys would kill him.

It consumes too much material.

However, these few are barely enough now. We will wait until the first batch of ores are mined before casting new ones. It won't be long before all the Cyclops can be equipped.

A bit of excitement flashed in Corso's eyes and he stepped forward. The ground his huge body stepped on vibrated slightly. He reached out and picked up the huge hammer.

Huhuhu~

The eight-hundred-pound hammer was as light as a dagger in the hands of the cyclops lord.

"Master, it's too light."

Nugget on the side felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. As a forger with dwarf blood, it really made him feel embarrassed to have the tools he made made criticized.

However, he has tried his best to create these tools. No matter how skilled the forger is, it is impossible to forge artifacts without materials.

"Okay, let's make do with it. Once you mine the ore, I'll ask them to make you a heavier and better weapon as soon as possible.

I have great faith in Mr. Nuggets’ skills.”

Hearing this, Nugget's face showed deep gratitude, "Lord Cachar, it is Nugget's honor to serve you. Your kindness is enough to be praised by the God of Forging."

Corso scratched his head, waved the hammer in his hand casually, and nodded angrily.

"Yes, Master,"

Although this weapon is very light, at least it is still made of iron, which is much better than his previous wooden mace.

"Harrison, take the vampires here with Corso and the other Cyclops to the Valley of the Giants.

Start mining ores with the fastest speed in the world. I want to prepare the agricultural tools before the end of the winter moon."

The winter moon has passed for almost a month now.

If there is a lack of necessary farming tools next spring, the impact will be huge.

In Li De's plan, Dawn City will mainly develop agriculture next year.

Agriculture is the foundation of everything. If there is no food, there is no development if there is not enough food to eat.

Only when agriculture is stabilized can the superstructure develop.

Therefore, Li De will not relax at all regarding the key points in his plan.

"Yes, patriarch"

Harrison immediately began to make arrangements after receiving the order.

Li De scanned the crowd with his peripheral vision, and a short figure appeared in his eyes, waving his hand with a smile on his face.

"Jones"

When Li De called him, Jones Jr. stepped forward with a bit of surprise.

"Good day, Lord Cachar"

Jones, who had put on a new cotton coat, held his chest and bowed to Li De like an adult.

Li De patted the prospector apprentice's small shoulder.

He praised with satisfaction.

“You did a great job this time, and you made great contributions to the City of Dawn.

I will personally reward you with 10 points, and from now on your salary will be increased to 1 gold puke every month. "Looking at Jones with a surprised expression, he smiled slightly.

“The development of Dawn City cannot be separated from everyone’s efforts. You are still young, and only when you are young will you have greater potential.

Work hard and the future will be yours. "

Jones' face flushed with excitement, and his young heart was filled with blood at this moment.

"Lord Cachar, Jones is willing to give his life for you!"

After speaking, he knelt down on one knee in front of Li De, imitating the way the knights he had seen salute to the nobles.

Li De laughed and helped the little guy up.

"Very well, I hope you can make more contributions to the City of Dawn.

Is there anything else you need from me to reward you? "

Jones' face, which was flushed with excitement, showed a bit of trepidation. He turned his head and glanced at the vampire Henner of the prospecting team. When he saw the other person smiled and nodded, he said with a bit of impatient mood.

"Lord Cachar, I wish Uncle Sam would become an employee of City Hall"

"Uncle Sam?"

"Uncle Sam is the neighbor who took me to escape from the village. He is the person closest to me. He has always hoped to get a stable job."

Seeing Jones explain hurriedly, Li De nodded at him, "Yes, he is a good young man who knows how to repay his kindness. I will arrange this matter." After saying that, he turned to look at Henner.

"Henna, take Jones with you and arrange him in the logistics team."

"Yes, Your Majesty the First Ancestor"

Henner saluted at Jones' excited expression.

"You are so great, Lord Cachar, thank you for your kindness and generosity"

Li De felt very comfortable seeing the admiration in Jones's eyes.

"Jones, you deserve all this. In Dawn City, hard work will be rewarded. Dawn City will not ignore any hard-working resident."

The words were spoken loudly, and the eyes of the blacksmiths and residents passing by who were watching the excitement were deeply moved.

How lucky they are to have such a great city lord.

"Although we have now explored an iron mine, this matter cannot stop here. In the future, we will have to work hard for you to continue to help Dawn City find ore veins.

Jones, the future mines of Dawn City are all in your hands."

Li De patted Jones's shoulder earnestly, and the boy suddenly felt a surge of recognition and responsibility, and was greatly encouraged.

It's great to be treated like this by the Lord of Cachar City.

Jones was filled with pride and pride.

"Lord Cachar, Jones will not let you down."

After Li De left the blacksmith shop, the incident immediately spread throughout the City of Dawn.

Everyone was amazed by Li De's actions.

In the next few days, the number of people going to Dawn Church will increase exponentially. Who would not feel honored to have such a city lord.

After Jones received Li De's promise, he couldn't wait to return to his residence with Henner.

A two-story building.

Originally there were other people living here with Jones, but with the discovery of iron ore, this small building now has no other outsiders except Sam, the resident who fled with Jones.

For Jones' safety, Harrison even placed a fixed sentry not far from this small building.

Once there is danger, the guards will immediately protect the sole prospector of Dawn City.

Tap tap tap~

Jones ran up to the second floor with eager excitement.

Bang~

Open the door on the right and enter the house.

The house is very tidy, and the smell of burning wood is strong and gives off a warm atmosphere.

"Uncle Sam, I'm back~"

Sam, who was warming himself by the fireplace, was frightened by the huge movement and turned his head to glance at Jones and said angrily.

"You bastard, come over here and warm yourself by the fire. Why are you yelling?!"

Jones patted the snowflakes on his body, walked up to Sam with a thick smile, and spoke without sitting down.

"Uncle Sam, what good news do you think I have today?"

Sam is an ordinary farmer in his forties, with a prominent hooked nose, short stature, and dark skin.

He had never married a wife in his life, and the moment he brought Jones out, he regarded this clever little guy as his own son.

"What good news? Are the salaries being paid today? No, they were only paid half a month ago."

"It's not a salary, keep guessing"

"Did you get promoted?"

"no"

"The little girl next door agreed to be your girlfriend?"

Jones' face instantly turned red and he glared at the unruly Sam with hatred.

"Uncle Sam, I request the Lord of Cachar to let you become an employee of the city hall."

Click~

As if he had been struck by lightning, Sam stiffened and turned his head to look at Jones in disbelief.

"Wha, what?! You, you, you"

There was expectation and uneasiness on his face, he was afraid of hearing the answer from Jones' mouth but also wanted to hear it.

Jones looked at Sam's expression and instantly showed a bright smile.

"Uncle Sam, the Lord of Cachar City agreed. He said that he can arrange for you to work in the logistics team. You will be a formal employee, not a zero-hour worker~"

Sam's eyes turned red instantly when he looked at Jones' expression with a happy smile.

As an ordinary civilian with no skills, little working ability, and not even proficiency in farming, he once made a living by doing odd jobs for the nobles.

Unexpectedly, one day, he would be able to work in a noble department like the city hall, and he would also be in the easy logistics team. The logistics team could receive 10 silver pukes a month.

"Jones, thank you, thank you"

Jones looked at Sam who was in tears and suddenly stuttered and felt at a loss. In his impression, Uncle Sam was a tall man who could rely on strong support. He had never seen him lose his temper like this before.

"Uncle Sam, don't cry. This is true. The Lord of Cachar City really promised you."

"No, Jones, I'm just happy."

After saying that, Sam stood up suddenly and laughed with tears in his eyes.

"Praise the Lord of Cachar!! Praise the City of Dawn!! I, Sam, will never forget it!!"
