"I'm sorry, I only have a little over 900 kilograms of iron ore, which can only be exchanged for a maximum of 4 Tier 2 Dire Wolves!" The other party said with a look of shame when he saw the amount Ye Chen brought out.
I thought I could make a big purchase with nearly a thousand kilograms of iron ore, but I didn't expect that they would be so stingy even when exchanging it for food. The difference in strength between lords is really quite large.
"Over nine hundred kilograms? Then I'll give you a discount. Nine hundred kilograms for five corpses, how about it?" Ye Chen was secretly delighted, but said calmly.
Put aside, the corpses of Tier 2 dark creatures are practically worthless, but iron ore is a perpetually scarce commodity, and its value will only continue to rise.
The other party naturally understood this principle, but at this stage, having too much iron ore in hand was pointless; it would be better to exchange it for resources that could strengthen themselves.
"Okay! Thank you very much!" Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, the other party was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly. A few dozen kilograms of ore may not seem like much, but if it were really exchanged, it could bring back quite a few good things.
Unfortunately, the kobolds weren't good at forging. Otherwise, if they could forge these ores into weapons and armor, their value would increase several times over.
This time, the ore was brought over by the enemy's kobolds, and the dire wolf corpses were also taken away by them.
Kobolds were mostly a slave race, serving as miners and laborers for various races. With them around, it was naturally not a good idea to trouble the noble elves with moving things.
The deal was struck, and both parties left satisfied. Ye Chen and Fatty continued their journey toward the location of the trade fair.
"I only wanted to exchange for two cotton plants, but I didn't expect to get such a large batch of iron ore. What a pleasant surprise!" Ye Chen looked at the iron ore piled up like a small mountain on his territory and smiled with satisfaction.
"Ye Ling, have Bella dig a hole and bury these iron ore pieces so no one else can see them!"
Iron ore is a strategic resource, and it is always coveted by others. People understand the principle of not flaunting their wealth.
"What a pity! If there were a dwarf lord here, these iron ore ore could have been turned into armor and weapons very quickly!" the fat man said with a hint of regret. He hadn't expected that Ye Chen would get such a large batch of equipment after he had just played around with the Moon Rabbit.
"No rush. We're going to the trade fair soon, so why worry about not finding a race skilled in forging? Besides, we don't have anywhere to find the furnaces needed for forging right now!" Ye Chen shook his head, not in a hurry.
"Oh, and take some iron ore back with you too. See if your goblins can conjure anything up. Pay attention to their talents!"
"Wow, this is a huge project! I have over two hundred goblins now, and it feels like my territory is full of holes dug by them!"
"Hmmm, congratulations! Your family is thriving! You can eat more dire wolf meat and grow up quickly!" Ye Chen patted him on the shoulder and said.
After three consecutive days, with the bonus from the Moon Rabbit, apart from those recruited just two days ago, the other Moon Elves and Silver Leaf Moon Spirits have basically completed the first stage of growth and entered the second stage.
It's a pity that Silverleaf Moon Elves don't like to eat meat; otherwise, if they consumed large amounts of Tier 2 Dire Wolf meat, their growth rate would be even faster.
In comparison, the goblins on the fat man's side are growing much faster.
With an unlimited supply of high-grade dire wolf meat, even the two hundred goblins recruited just three days ago have already completed the first stage of growth. Several goblins recruited earlier have even completed the second stage of growth and officially entered the full stage, including the goblin Sheri who developed the magic crystal bomb.
Having completed the advancement, Sheryl gained two more talent skills: Gunpowder Mastery and Energy Mastery.
The former can be considered a refined and enhanced branch of blasting mastery, while the latter may be a talent generated after being influenced by magic crystal bombs, which allows it to perceive the flow of various energies more acutely.
In addition, several of Shirley's previous talents have been enhanced to varying degrees, allowing him to go further and further down the path of demolition.
When the fat man had someone carry the iron ore back to him, Ye Chen even saw his eyes light up and he casually draw a cannon barrel pattern on the ground.
