Chapter 1341 We Are Good at Making Explosions!

In the southwest of Blackstone City, in a block near the dwarf residential area.

After attending the party organized by the city lord Crespo, the group of Liehu was arranged to rest in the public security bureau here.

Of course, it is called rest, but it is actually a disguised surveillance.

The reason why Kuss did not follow him can fool others, but it does not mean that Crespo can be satisfied.

For Ji Wuming's behavior of overstepping the rules, this arrangement can be regarded as a punishment.

An empty room in the center of the public security bureau was vacated, and everyone was arranged to move in.

Fortunately, the internal space is large enough, and the dwarves have prepared beds according to the number of people, so there will be no situation where someone has to sleep on the floor.

However, since they are all in the same room, the surveillance will naturally be stricter.

"Boss, the dwarves outside are watching closely. I am afraid they treat us as enemies. There are surveillances in several blind spots. It seems that they have been prepared for a long time!"

Tuoba Chi stood by the window and looked for a while, and took the opportunity to go to the toilet, and came back to report worriedly.

"Unless we can turn into flies and fly out of the window, we will definitely be discovered!"

"Who said we are going out?"

Liehu sat on the bed with his eyes closed, and suddenly opened his eyes and sneered.

"Ah, if we don't go out, how can we install the bombs?" Tuoba Chi was a little dumbfounded.

The main purpose of their trip was to place the energy stone bombs in the storage core and detonate them to create chaos when they attacked.

Now that they are being watched so closely, it is a problem to go out to the toilet.

Do we have to wait until the second infiltration to place the bombs we brought?

"Install the bomb? Do you know where to install it?" Liehu pulled the corner of his mouth, "You don't even know where this Black Stone City is important, what's the point of installing it?"

"Don't worry, it may be a little difficult to fight out here, but we are good at playing explosions... Wait until tomorrow, they may take the initiative to take us to where we should go."

In fact, there are far more dwarves guarding outside the house than those Tuoba Chi observed.

Not only were there people everywhere, but also hundreds of dwarves were deployed to guard the several blocks near the Public Security Bureau tonight.

In addition, dozens of pathfinders used for surveillance and search were also brought here.

Once the smell in the air deviates, the pathfinders will immediately detect the abnormality and expose it.

"I understand, I'll rest now."

Since Liehu said so, it means that he must have made the best plan in his mind.

Tuoba Chi was also straightforward, and he didn't think about things he couldn't figure out, so he took Pingchen to the side room to rest.

The Wan Guo dwarves are indeed a foreign race that has devoted their minds to craftsmen, and even the construction of houses has rules to speak of.

The interior space is spacious, the air circulation is smooth, and the thermal insulation is excellent.

Even if the temperature outside has reached minus 15 degrees, the room can still be stabilized at around 10 degrees above zero.

No words all night.

I don't know if it's because I completely let go of all my thoughts last night, but the quality of sleep in the enemy's territory is surprisingly good.

"Brother Chi! You look energetic?" Pingchen came in with a wash basin.

"And hot water?" Tuoba Chi yawned.

"Of course, these dwarves have similar living habits to us. They not only prepared hot water, but also towels..." Pingchen said, put down the basin and went back. After a while, he brought back a box of things.

There were daily necessities in it, even toothbrushes. It seemed that a set was prepared for everyone.

"Did you have these things when you came here before?"

Xiao Yang rummaged through the box and looked up at Ji Wuming with some curiosity.

The latter shook his head and shrugged: "To be honest, this is my first time staying here. I always had to rush back at night before."

"They don't trust us, and we don't trust them."

"That's strange. Judging from the size of these things, they are too big for dwarves."

If the daily necessities that dwarves usually use were sent to them, it would not be strange.

But now these daily necessities are obviously several times larger, and the size is just the same as that used by humans.

As for whether it was rushed out, you can tell by touching the fluff on the towel.

It took at least a month to make it, otherwise it would not be in this state.

"Could it be that there are other humans cooperating with the dwarves?"

Xiao Yang murmured, thinking in his heart.

But he did not say it, but just let it go.

After eating the breakfast brought by the dwarves, the group walked towards the city lord's mansion.

The banquet yesterday did not last too long, and the exchanges between the two parties were just a taste.

Ji Wuming did not propose a further division of interests, such as what kind of cooperation rewards he would get after providing more mineral resources.

And Crespo did not mention helping him to move forward and complete the entry into the Tianyuan territory.

Not surprisingly, today is the time to officially start the negotiations.

Walking out of the Security Bureau, the morning dew has not completely dissipated, and the stone road is covered with a faint silver frost.

Perhaps because the temperature has dropped too much, the huge Black Stone City seems quite deserted at this time.

Occasionally, a few early-rising dwarf residents hurried past on the street.

Seeing the hunting tiger as big as a hill, the dwarves were frightened, as if they had seen a monster.

Fortunately, the dwarf guards were accompanying them, so further confusion was not caused.

After a while, the envoy team arrived in front of the city lord's mansion.

This is a group of stone houses built on the mountainside. Standing in front of the courtyard gate, you can see most of the Black Stone City built on the mountain. It seems that it is the guardian here, silently watching over this land.

It's a pity that under the influence of the late spring cold, there is not much sunshine, but the city looks a bit gloomy.

Not to mention compared with Tianyuan Territory, even compared with Xijiao, it is much weaker.

"Bring people in." After waiting for a while, Crespo's order came from the city lord's palace.

A group of people moved upon hearing the sound, first passing through the place where yesterday's banquet was held, and then entering the deeper chamber.

This is a very large stone room of about 300 square meters. Inside, there are more than twenty dwarves sitting on big benches in a funny manner, working seriously in front of the paperwork that is several times taller than themselves.

The central corridor is spacious and bright, leading directly to the end of the meeting hall.

There, the city lord Crespo was sitting leisurely with his legs on the table.

This scene reminds people of the Goblin Bank in Harry Potter. The position of the dwarves in the meeting hall actually shows their identity.

The dwarves outside are responsible for some basic work, while the status of the dwarves inside is more noble.

Consul Nanni was on Crespo's left hand side, with almost three times more documents in front of him than the others.

"Everyone else is busy. This guy is so comfortable. He doesn't seem to be a local." Liehu looked around and noticed some information immediately.

During yesterday's banquet, Crespo showed a more enjoyable attitude than others.

At that time, he thought this guy loved to have fun, but now it seemed that he was obviously different from the local dwarves.

Facing the team of envoys who came forward, Crespo retracted his legs and stood on the chair looking down.

If someone with a strong momentum does this, for example, a hunting tiger makes this gesture.

That might create some sense of oppression, but for a dwarf...

Who would feel oppressed by a creature about the size of a medium-sized dog standing high up?

"How well did Mr. Ji rest last night?"

Ji Wuming replied with a non-smiling smile, his behavior no different from usual.

This is the benefit of instigating rebellion.

If this was a threat to Ji Wuming coming here, it would definitely make Crespo feel something was wrong.

"We have inspected the gold mine you brought yesterday and it is of very good quality."

"I have always been rewarded for my merits and punished for my mistakes. The resource support Mr. Ji will receive in the next period of time will be 20% higher than usual."

Crespo said seriously, talking about the main event as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Twenty percent? I'm afraid that's not enough, right?" Ji Wuming shook his head and immediately sneered.

"If the city lord still pays this price next time, with all due respect, it will be difficult for us to help you collect more resources."

Dwarf weapons are not sold to humans, and some special devices are also subject to regulation.

The resource support Crespo mentioned was nothing more than some ordinary food supplies or inferior handguns and large and small caliber bullets that were imitated by humans.

This is really not helpful to the Red Flower Gang, which has reached the level of 200,000 people.

As soon as he finished speaking, Crespo's expression immediately turned ugly.

"Mr. Ji, can I interpret what you just said as...that you are threatening me?" A sinister smile appeared on Crespo's face.

"Then can I interpret your current words as threatening me?"

Ji Wuming didn't give Crespo any face and pushed back forcefully.

When it comes to interests, as expected, the two parties are ready to start fighting, and the smell of gunpowder is getting stronger and stronger.

"We really can't give you the things you want, especially weapons. This is taboo among the dwarves. I can't break the rules just for some resources." Crespo did not hide it and said directly. .

"Even if I am a noble, if I am reported, I will still be sent to prison!"

"Then let's not talk about future cooperation. I don't need that kind of inferior weapons." Ji Wuming twitched the corner of his mouth and spread his hands to sneer.

"It's strange. Even though your skills in making weapons are so superb, why are there so many problems with the guns you supply to us? Did you know that there are double digits of people injured in this moonlight due to barrel explosions!"

"And this is still on the training ground. Once on the battlefield, I don't know what will happen."

"Forehead..."

Crespo was speechless, the anger on his face disappeared, replaced by embarrassment.

Maybe, maybe, probably...the weapons supplied to the Red Flower Gang are really rubbish?

Thinking of this, Crespo raised his head and looked at the consul Nanni next to him.

"What's going on? Is it as serious as he said?"

"I don't know the specific situation, but I went to the foundry once, and it seems that the craftsmen responsible for casting human guns haven't even started yet."

"Damn, these stupid guys."

Crespo rolled his eyes and immediately understood what happened.

Just like they are eager to make achievements, go to a higher position, and have more rights.

Although it can be said that the dwarf craftsmen have no desires and desires, they still have the idea of ​​​​climbing up.

However, what they pursue is more advanced casting and more complex and magical techniques.

Isn't it a waste of time to spend time forging human guns?

Even if one thousand, ten thousand, or one hundred thousand of that kind of standard weapon were made, it would be impossible for the master craftsmen in the royal city to recognize it.

Therefore, when Crespo arranged the work, he did not consider the old craftsmen, but directly arranged it to the new craftsmen who had just started.

Unexpectedly, these new craftsmen were so bold that they outsourced the work to the dwarf craftsmen who had not yet started.

No wonder there were problems. Some people's guns might be the first finished products in their lives.

"I promise that the level of human weapons supplied to you next will definitely be qualitatively improved."

Although Crespo admitted that he was in the wrong, he did not have any thoughts of bowing his head and apologizing.

What has passed has passed. Who made these people not bring it up when they received the weapons?

"That won't work. I have to see the goods at least before I can talk about these things." Ji Wuming rolled his eyes and led the topic over.

Sure enough, Crespo waved his hand without any hesitation.

"Take them to the craftsman area and let the old...let them watch the forging process of the entry-level craftsmen."

I wanted to say the old craftsmen, but I thought that these guys were not afraid of him, the airborne city lord.

It is better to control the new craftsmen, especially since the supply of mineral resources will increase in the future.

If these guys want to practice with minerals, they must listen to him.

"Not only casting pistols, but also other resources supplied to me, I will check the quality today."

Ji Wuming was more demanding: "As long as the quality can pass, our cooperation can still be discussed. If you still fool around like that, I think the city lord should find someone else."

"Okay, no problem, I have time today, I will let someone take you around every place."

Crespo agreed without thinking, without feeling any problem at all.

And last night, the group behaved very well under surveillance and did not show any abnormality.

"It's done!"

As soon as he left the meeting room, Xiao Yang, who listened to the whole process, immediately translated the conversation just now.

As Tuoba Chi and Ping Chen looked at each other in bewilderment, Liehu smiled calmly, as if everything was under control.

...
