Chapter 1158: A friend whom the dwarves value

"Zhenbang, the dwarves are in front, and that is the Ironforge Mountain where our dwarves live!" Xiaokeduo exclaimed excitedly, pointing to the towering mountains in the distance.
"Do you live on the mountain?" Li Zhenbang looked far away. It was time for lunch, but no smoke rose at the foot of the mountain. Instead, heavy smoke continued to rise from the entire mountain.
"Of course we don't live on the mountain anymore." Xiaokduo shook his head.
"But I don't feel like I live at the foot of the mountain!" Li Zhenbang took a closer look again, and the thick smoke was indeed coming out of the mountain, and there was no smoke rising at the foot of the mountain.
"We all live in the mountains." Xiaokduo said with a smile.
"Is there any difference between living in the mountain and living on the mountain?" Li Zhenbang looked at Xiao Keduo suspiciously.
"The difference is big. We live in the mountains, not on the mountains." Xiaokeduo explained.
Li Zhenbang pondered for a while, but still didn't understand, isn't this mountain the same as the mountain?
"No, Old Xiao, I said that living on the mountain does not mean living on the top of the mountain, or living in the mountain." Li Zhenbang thought that Xiao Keduo did not understand what he said, so he explained it again.
"Zhenbang, I know what you mean, but we do not live in the mountains, nor in the mountains, but in the mountains, inside!" Xiaokeduo emphasized.
"Inside?" Li Zhenbang frowned and thought about it again, his eyes widened suddenly, "Do you mean that you all live in the mountains? Doesn't that mean you live in the cave? You dwarves don’t have Live in the house?"
"Uh...it's not a cave! Alas! Forget it, I can't explain it to you. After a while you get to Tielushan, you will understand!" Xiao Keduo shook his head and gave up explaining to Li Zhenbang, anyway. The dwarf race is about to come, and Li Zhenbang must understand when he gets to the place.
Li Zhenbang followed behind Xiaokeduo with doubts. He didn't realize when he walked to the foot of the mountain. What Xiaokeduo said about living in the mountains is really living in the mountains.
There is an extremely wide iron gate at the foot of Tielushan Mountain. Each of the iron nails on the iron gate is the size of a fist. Even if a dragon passes through here, there is no problem.
Although there were no people coming in or out of the gate, the big iron gate was not closed.
"Your gate is too lavish? It's just that if these two big iron gates are used to build weapons and equipment, it is estimated that they will be enough to arm a thousand-man heavy cavalry." Li Zhenbang couldn't help but feel emotional when he looked at the big iron gate.
"This gate is very famous in the Muye Federation. It is called the number one gate in the world, but to us, this is nothing!" Xiao Keduo waved his hand and said casually. However, his expression was very proud. Obviously this big iron gate was something to be proud of for him.
"Your big iron gate is open all year round? What use is this big iron gate?" Li Zhenbang asked suspiciously.
"Alas! A layman is a layman! The first door in the world is made of pure iron, which can be done not only by skill! The first door in the world is not only a symbol of the strength of our dwarves, but also our dwarves. The embodiment of tribal wisdom!" Xiaokeduo explained.
"Indeed, only the dwarves can build such a gate!" Li Zhenbang nodded and said with emotion.
But he didn't think so in his heart. Apart from wasting materials and energy, building such a gate has no practical effect at all. Even if it is completed, it is a troublesome thing to use.
As if seeing Li Zhenbang's thoughts in his mind, Xiao Keduo continued: "Don't look at this door as heavy, but it's extremely convenient to use. We all control it through organs, and it doesn't require much manpower to use."
"Furthermore, the defense power of the first door in the world is extremely strong, not inferior to those rare precious metals. Once a war breaks out, even if the Fire Element Saint Magister launches a forbidden spell attack, there are no ten or eight.
"Usually we don't open the door. There is a small door under the door. Everyone enters and exits from there. It will only be opened on special days."
"Today is not a holiday. I think there should be a lot of weapons and equipment out of the warehouse. It is not convenient to walk through the small door, so the door was opened."
As if to confirm what Xiaokduo had said, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the gate, and trucks pulled by four horses came out of the gate, and each car pulled a hill like a hill. Weapons or armor.
"Your business is really good!" Li Zhenbang said eagerly.
Li Zhenbang's eyes cannot be blamed. The gold coins that can be exchanged for the weapons and equipment on this carriage can be piled up into a hill. You must know that these weapons and equipment are just conventional weapons and equipment.
If these weapons and equipment are replaced with more advanced weapons, the hills of gold coins may be higher than the weapons and equipment.
"Where is this? It's not the peak season for weapons trading. When the peak season comes, the fleet of goods and gold coins will be in an endless stream." Xiaokeduo gestured excitedly.
"Don't you use a crystal card? Wouldn't it be too inconvenient to use gold coins for large transactions?" Li Zhenbang looked at Xiaokeduo suspiciously.
"Of course, it's just that crystal cards are usually used when going out. Gold coins are hard currency in the dwarves." Xiao Keduo raised his eyebrows.
"Why? How convenient is the crystal card?" Li Zhenbang asked puzzledly.
"Crystal card? Convenient is convenient, but not safe." Xiao Keduo shook his head.
"Insecure? I have been using it quite well, and there have been no problems? Isn't it because your thinking is too stubborn?" Li Zhenbang joked.
"I ask you! What is a crystal card?" Xiaokeduo asked rhetorically.
"What else? It's money!" Li Zhenbang said without hesitation.
"Money? Huh! In the final analysis, it's just a tool, and it's a tool invented by you humans! Gold and silver have entered your pockets, and what you give everyone is just a card!"
"Once the human world changes, will the money in the crystal card still be money? No matter how the times change, no matter whether the crystal card or the fire crystal card is used in the future, the gold coins will still be gold coins!" Xiaokeduo solemnly said.
Li Zhenbang was stunned for a while when he heard Xiao Keduo's words. He did not expect that Xiao Keduo would have such an opinion.
Shocked has already said very euphemistically. In fact, what Shocked means is that once the Karo Empire breaks out or changes players, the crystal card will most likely become unusable, and the crystal card will become an unusable one. With the cards used, the wealth of the dwarves must not be placed in the hands of other countries.
Li Zhenbang nodded. He had always treated the dwarves as a race. Now it seems that the dwarves are completely a country within a country and should be viewed from a national perspective.
"Let's go! I'll take you in and take a look, let you know what it means to live in the mountains!" Xiao Keduo patted Li Zhenbang, and then walked directly towards the gate.
"His Royal Highness, you are back!" Seeing Xiao Keduo strode over, the dwarf guarding the gate slapped the axe on his chest, bowed his head slightly, and greeted him respectfully.
"Old Dong, are you on duty today? Drinking together tonight?" Xiao Keduo patted the gatekeeper on the shoulder. He was obviously an old acquaintance.
"His Royal Highness, I'm still on duty tonight, I can't go." Old Dong's eyes lit up first, and then he shook his head helplessly.
"Okay! This time I brought my brother back for a long time!" Xiao Keduo said with his arm around Old Dong's shoulder.
"Humans? Brothers?" Old Dong looked at Li Zhenbang, and looked at Xiao Keduo suspiciously.
"His name is Li Zhenbang." Xiaokeduo said.
"Li Zhenbang? Is it the person who once you took someone to help, and then invited all of you to eat, and you were full of food?" Old Dong looked at Li Zhenbang again, and then asked softly.
"Yes, it's him!" Xiao Keduo nodded.
Although Lao Dong and Xiao Keduo spoke relatively quietly, but Li Zhenbang's ears worked better. He heard all the conversations between the two people all the time.
Li Zhenbang looked at Lao Dong and Xiao Keduo in embarrassment. Both of them were talking about him. They were talking about the fact that he invited a group of people to dinner, which made him feel like a triumphant son.
"It turned out to be Zhenbang brother! Long admiration! It really is a talent!" Old Dong looked at Li Zhenbang, arched his hands at Li Zhenbang, and said with a smile.
If it weren't for old Dong's eyes full of praise and approval, Li Zhenbang would have suspected that old Dong was openly mocking him for being a triumphant man.
"Where is it? Brother Dong praised it!" Li Zhenbang waved his hand, although a little embarrassed, he responded politely.
"Brother Zhenbang, you are just like Dian... Old Xiao, just call me Old Dong!" Old Dong said with his arms around Xiao Keduo.
"Yes, Zhenbang, you can just call him Old Dong. You don't know. Ever since I heard about your deeds, Old Dong has always said that I have the opportunity to see you!" Xiao Keduo interrupted.
"See me? Isn't it because you want to see me and ask me to have dinner? Hey!" Li Zhenbang grinned and laughed.
"Look at what you said, as if we sent you a meal! We are your character, you think we dwarves will be short of money to eat!" Xiao Keduo curled his lips.
"What are you kidding? I care about the money? I just wonder, isn't it just to invite everyone to dinner? As for making you so unforgettable? It seems like I have done something amazing!" Li Zhenbang asked puzzled. road.
"Inviting a dwarf to eat is nothing, and inviting an orc to eat is nothing. The difficulty is that you can treat everyone equally and invite everyone to eat without discriminating against any vulnerable race. This is what we value!" Xiao Keduo said meaningfully.
