The Northeast Province has only a few hundred thousand people and the market capacity is limited. However, the population of other provinces is more than ten times that of the Northeast Province. They are also more prosperous and have a larger market.

　　 Richard's endless supply of commodities will earn him a lot of gold coins and turn his territory into the richest place.

　　You can earn gold coins.

　　 But the dragon is hard to meet.

　　Like Earl Ike and the others, they have seen a dragon once in a lifetime.

What did 　　 sell?

　　 What's more, now there is hope of taming. Once tamed, Richard will have a competent assistant.

　　With this dragon, Richard's territory is solid, and anyone who wants to make Richard's ideas has to weigh a little bit.

　　 Richard's reputation will continue to increase from this.

　　 As soon as the reputation of the dragon hunter spreads out, Richard's name will be known to people in this world.

　　 No, once the dragon is tamed, Richard is no longer a dragon hunter.

　　 is the owner of the dragon!

　　Lord of the dragon!

　　 These are incomparable with one hundred thousand or even two hundred thousand gold coins.

　　 Therefore, Richard never considered selling the dragon!

　　 Give one million gold coins and Richard will not sell them.

　　Earl Ike heard what Richard said and thought it was so.

　　Earl Ike said: "Then I will reply to the king. As for the marriage... the king has not officially mentioned it yet, and Earl Richard does not need to rush to make any comments."

　　 Richard looked at Earl Ike and asked, "What does the king want the dragon to do?"

　　Although he is not going to sell, Richard still wants to know the king's purpose.

Earl Ike said: "It is estimated that the king wants to tame it. The rebel army has not been completely calmed down, and some barbaric countries to the west of the kingdom have some movement. Even if the rebel army is calmed down, due to the general lack of food, it is estimated that it will continue next spring. There is some noise, if the king can have a dragon, it would be a good deterrent."

　　 Richard nodded and said, "Thank you, Earl Ike."

　　 The purpose of the king is similar to Richard’s guess.

　　 Anyway, Earl Ike was able to take the initiative to reveal the secrets that the king had ordered not to reveal to Richard. Richard should say thank you.

　　Earl Ike is gone.

　　 This episode was quickly put down by Richard.

　　 Richard has been a little busy recently.

　　His blacksmith town has been officially opened, and the people inside are in full swing creating various ironware.

　　 Now there are hundreds of blacksmiths and thousands of apprentices in the entire town.

　　 A blacksmith brings twenty or thirty apprentices.

　　 The first batch that Richard asked them to build were farm tools.

　　 is like a hoe.

　　 This kind of technical content is not high, and the requirements for iron are not high, so it happens to be used for them to practice hands.

　　 Uub the Dwarf made rapid progress.

　　 Moreover, he also revealed a news recently.

　　 That is, in fact, he is not the only dwarf, there are other dwarves. Those dwarves live near a volcano and use lava to strike iron for a living.

　　 The living conditions of the dwarves are not that good.

　　 Don't think they can strike iron, but because their numbers are too small, if humans catch them, they are basically used as slaves.

　　 rarely treats them like Richard.

　　Of course, there are dwarves who have the status of free citizens in some cities, but they are quite rare.

Perhaps Uub had lived in Richard’s territory for so long. He saw that Richard paid so much attention to him and handed over the entire blacksmith town to his management. He also provided him with a large number of ironmaking books and a large amount of materials. He practiced hands.

　　 The dwarf finally put down all guards on Richard and decided to be loyal to Richard.

　　Uub then told Richard the news.

　　The life of his people near the volcano is not good, and there are some dangers. If the people can come to Richard's territory, Uub would be happy to see it.

　　 Now several kinds of orcs and even elves are living well in Richard's territory. This also makes Uub think that the dwarves can also live quite well.

　　 Richard was a little pleased after hearing this.

　　 After clarifying the place, Richard asked a few people to take the tokens given by Uub to the nearby volcano to see if they could bring the dwarves.

　　 This trip will travel through a part of the orc kingdom, and Richard also asked these people to take a look at the orc kingdom.

　　 After this matter is resolved, Richard has one more thing.

　　That's the elves.

　　 The evil spirits have been on Richard's territory for several days.

　　 Richard went there a few days ago and asked the elves about their needs, and then bought a lot of things the elves needed from a certain treasure.

　　The clothes of the elves are all knitted by themselves. The materials used are all sourced from the forest.

　　 is not leaves, but some special plants. The skin can be torn into thin threads one by one, and then after a series of treatments, it is better than the threads used for weaving.

　　 Such a dress is also very complicated to make, basically it takes more than half a year to make one.

　　 But it looks good after wearing it, and it is very durable, environmentally friendly and natural, and more comfortable than silk clothes.

If clothes like 　　 are sold in another world, it is estimated that someone will want it for a sky-high price.

　　 So there is no need to worry about their clothes.

　　 Besides, the elves are not as cold as human beings.

　　 Winter is not particularly scary for them.

　　Of course, they still need to keep warm when it is too cold, especially at night.

　　 Richard purchased a large number of silk quilts for them to use for the winter.

　　 In addition, Richard also purchased some daily necessities for them.

　　Towels are not needed, they use them by themselves.

　　 shampoo and the like are not needed either, they are all made of plants, without any chemical ingredients.

　　 But they like soap very much.

　　 In addition, there are some drinking cups, porcelain for food, etc.

　　 Now that these goods have arrived, Richard is going to send them to them.

　　 "Your Excellency Richard, you are here!"

　　 When Richard arrived, the half-elf Lacey was extremely happy.

　　 In recent days, she has been helping the elves to settle down.

　　 The elves cleaned the inside and outside of the palace again, and then set up their own small home.

　　 In addition, some elves began to plant the plants they needed in the forest. The plants could grow some delicious fruits, and that was their food.

　　 Anyway, the elves are also very busy these days.

　　 Richard came to the palace where the elves used to store goods, and released all the things he bought.

　　 "Wow, so many!"

　　 Seeing so many things, the half-elf Lacey was a little surprised.

　　 "Your Excellency Richard, these things are too expensive!"

　　 Elf patriarch Selena also came.

　　 In Selena's view, Richard has done enough for them.

　　 Now so many things have been delivered.

　　 Selena was a little embarrassed.

　　 Richard said: "It's okay, these can help you get through the winter better."

　　 "Thank you so much!"

　　 Elf patriarch Selena said gratefully.

　　 After putting everything down, Richard came to the palace where the elves met at the invitation of the elven patriarch.

　　Then the elven patriarch discussed with Richard about what he would do for Richard.

"We have 1,850 people in total. Except for Lacey, they are all elves over fifty years old. For elves, fifty years old is not that big, but the people of the tribe have great archery skills. good."

　　 Elf patriarch Selena explained the situation in the tribe.

　　 Richard asked curiously: "Isn't there no new elves born in the past fifty years?"

　　 Selena shook her head and said, "Yes, Sir Richard, in the past fifty years, apart from Lacey, no new elves have been born."

　　 Richard glanced at Lexi next to him.

　　Racy is actually a little curious.

　　 Before, she didn't know much about things in the family.

　　 Selena said: "Your Excellency Richard, the elves do not multiply like humans. Although Lacey is half-elf, she also has human blood, but it is not the product of the combination of elves and humans."

　　 At this point, she stopped.

　　 Richard glanced at Lacey, and finally chose not to ask.

The elven patriarch said again: "Your Excellency Richard, my initial plan is that on weekdays, I will summon a thousand clansmen. Your Excellency Richard can send them at any time. If there is a large-scale war, all of us will be qualified fighters. , But we don’t have that many bows and arrows."

　　 Richard said: "Bows and arrows are not a problem."

　　He was going to change the bows of the elves.

　　 are all replaced by longbows with a long range. The projectile range can reach 300 meters, and the flat shot can also have a range of several tens of meters.

When 　　 is projected, it can penetrate ordinary lock armor, and even shields made of ordinary wood can be shot through.

　　Of course, a shield made of dense wood like oak still can’t be penetrated by a single blow.

　　In addition to bows and arrows, Richard is also preparing to customize a batch of light and beautiful armors for the elves. These armors will leave four weapon positions.

　　 He is going to equip the elves with a elven scimitar, two daggers, and a short sword.

　　In this way, even if there are enemies close, the elves have enough sharp weapons to fight.

　　The elves are not only good at archery, but they are also good at close combat.

　　 In addition, the elves are the strongest and the best archery, and Richard is going to equip them with magic bows.

　　 Now Richard's speed in making magic bows has been greatly accelerated, and he doesn't need to make one in a few months as before.

　　 That is the first one after all.

　　 It's normal to be slower.

　　With the magic bow, there is a super sharp long-range strike method.

　　 Although the range of the crossbow is farther than that of the magic bow, the accuracy of the crossbow is definitely not as good as that of a sharp shooter with a magic bow.

　　 So, the magic bow is still necessary.

　　 is very sharp for precise strikes.

　　 Now the second magic bow is still being made, and it will take about half a month to make it.

　　 The third magic bow will only be made faster!

　　 Richard chatted with the elven chieftain again and confirmed some details.

　　 In normal times, Richard doesn't need the elves to come out on patrols or anything.

　　Only during the war, Richard would send someone if he needed it, or he would notify them through the walkie-talkie.
