Chapter 5 Goblins and Potatoes
Author: pure pure pure milk
In the end, the Ren brothers and sisters set their reward for Long at 1,000 gold coins per person per month, which doubled.
Long En, who secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ren, knew that he was still too kind. This unlucky kid was very rich.
But when it came time to pay the reward for saving them from the hill giant, Ren only took out a small box of gems and two boxes of gold coins.
Long En was not angry. If you break the contract witnessed by the gods, you will definitely suffer divine punishment.
Even the five-color dragon queen Tiamat, the mother of evil dragons, who has gathered all the negative characters of the five-color dragons and magnified them infinitely, and only praises the evil deeds of betrayal, will also regret betraying the agreement made in her name.
Humans inflict divine punishments and suffer extreme tortures.
"Lord Long, my sister and I didn't have time to carry more gold coins when we fled. Except for the necessary ones, all the gold coins and gems we carried are here." Ren explained respectfully.
He did not deceive Long, but the payment had to wait until they returned to Castle Carter.
This is why he dared to ask to stay here. Before he paid the reward, this contract would always exist, and Long En could not harm them. Even in order to get the "final payment" that accounted for the majority of the reward, Long En had to protect them.
of safety.
I didn't expect that a veteran who had graduated from school and worked for three years would be tricked by a fifteen-year-old kid, even though he was now a terrifying and evil five-color dragon.
"Interesting," Ron looked at Ren seriously. "The nervousness when signing the contract was also a disguise, right? In order to make me relax my vigilance, I didn't notice that there was no time limit added to the contract."
Renn: "This is not the first time I see a real dragon. I am really nervous."
Long En: "..."
After discussing the remuneration agreement, Long took Ren's storage ring containing the reward and walked to the deepest part of the cave. Using the method Ren said, he touched the ring with his mental power and released the gold coins and gems inside.
After thinking about it for a moment, Long raised his claws and overturned the box containing gold coins. There were more than 20,000 gold coins in the two boxes, but they were only covered with a shallow layer.
Long filled the big box with soil and stones, and finally covered the surface of the soil and stones with a layer of gold coins.
After dotting a small box of gems among the pile of gold coins, Long En nodded.
"This looks almost enough." Long En was very satisfied with his decoration ability.
I have to get down to business next.
Long called the Ren brothers and sisters, who were still congratulating themselves on surviving the disaster and discussing the future, and asked them to serve as translators and direct the goblins to carry the bodies of the three hill giants.
Ron doesn't eat smelly and fat hill giants, but for goblins, this is a large and high-quality prey.
Hill giants are also supernatural creatures in nature. Their corpses attracted the attention of many predators, and Long had to act as a security guard for the transport team.
Relying on the fishing law enforcement experience gained in the review sections of major software in his previous life, the goblins carried two more tiger beasts and a grizzly bear among the corpses they carried.
…
At night, Long was lying at the entrance of the cave, enjoying the grizzly bear's surface that was slightly scorched with one breath, and staring at the goblin settlement below the cave with his excellent eyesight.
They were clumsily splitting the hill giant's muscles with rough stone pieces, then grilled them over the fire, and then rushed to eat the roasted meat that had been grilled and then cooled.
These are Long's orders.
Goblins are very stupid, but one good thing is that they will obey the lord's arrangements unconditionally, and the more powerful the lord is, the more thorough their obedience will be.
The prerequisite is that they understand your commands.
Ron spoke the order, Ren translated it, and the selected goblins who were smarter relayed it. It took an hour to make them understand that the prey must be roasted and eaten by lighting a fire.
Cooked meat is easier to absorb than raw meat. The rapid development of ancient human brains began with the consumption of cooked food.
Maybe there are other factors affecting the other world, but Long En likes to try his best.
He suddenly felt a little disillusioned. He thought that if he traveled to another world, even if he couldn't open up a harem of beautiful girls, as a giant dragon, he should kill everyone everywhere and no one could challenge him.
Unexpectedly, he was half-starved to death, managed to catch a hunt, was frightened by the hill giants, and was so angry that he wanted to laugh at the dirty and stupid Goblin Familia, all because of the language barrier.
"Forget it, if the Familia I have collected are just mud, I'll cover the wall with it first. What if it gets stuck on the wall?"
There are 86 young and adult male goblins in the entire settlement, 14 old goblins, 67 young and adult female goblins, and 31 goblin cubs, with a total of 198 mouths.
Long En didn't particularly care about the Goblins starving to death, he just liked to be more serious about things, and since he had accepted the Familia, he wanted to make the Familia stronger.
Especially this kind of realism is mixed with the blue dragon's nature of loving to control the weak and to be worshiped by other creatures.
…
As soon as the sky dawned, Long En flapped his wings and flew over the goblin settlement, leaving behind him the sincere praises of the prostrate goblins after they had eaten their fill.
After flying roughly in a circle and inspecting the surrounding terrain, Long flew back to the cave.
By the way, he called the Ren brothers and sisters and told them to build some houses for the goblins first.
The Lane brothers and sisters lived in a stone house last night. They alternately used several simple spells such as "fossils into mud", "controlling earth elements", and "turning mud into stone" to quickly build a stone house.
It's said that the house is actually just a matchbox surrounded by a stone wall and covered with a roof to protect it from wind and rain. It's very simple. It's just a place enough for two hundred goblins to sleep together. It doesn't take much effort.
Being ordered to use noble magic to build a house for the goblins, Ren didn't resent it at all. He knew some architecture and even carefully planned the load-bearing and moisture-proofing of the house.
After repairing the house, Ren, who was obviously mentally exhausted, walked into the cave: "Lord Long, a stone house for three hundred wild goblins has been built. In addition to six stone houses for wild goblins, a stone house for wild goblins has also been built.
A conservation stone house where a pregnant wild goblin lives.”
Ron admires young people who are willing to do things and like to use their brains. There is no boss who doesn't like employees who can over-complete their work.
Seeing Ren coming alone, Long asked casually: "Where is Tina?"
"She said she wanted to take a walk around. Please forgive her for her willfulness."
Long En shook his head, not caring, and said: "You can arrange your own time as long as it does not affect the tasks I gave you. Okay, let's get started."
"Yes, Lord Long, we can start with the book "Basic Spell Cognition and Spell Casting Principles"..."
"No," Ron shook his head, "Let's start with the Common Tongue of Oonia first."
"Do your will."
The learning of Oonia Common Language is progressing very quickly. Thanks to the dragon's strong memory and strong language learning ability in his previous life, Long En can already use Oonia Common Language phrases and vocabulary to do simple tasks in half an afternoon.
of communication.
"Brother, today we can eat grouse stewed with potatoes!"
Ron's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the grouse and the potato-like thing in Tina's hand as she walked into the cave.
"I suddenly want to plant something..."
