Chapter 795: The skin of a woolly mammoth
The labor issue has been resolved!
The seized mining site from the Norma people immediately started operations. The Maya people joyfully rushed into the mines and began digging ore with great effort. However, at this time, the ship of the queen had not yet arrived. They were still anchored in the port city on the other side of the ocean.
The mined ore could only be piled up next to the mining site in this short period of time, as there was no means to transport them. Furthermore, the sugar promised by the queen had not been delivered, making it impossible to pay the promised wages. This was not conducive to establishing initial trust.
Therefore, Robb had to use his transmission gate to help the queen. He transported a large quantity of sugar to the mining site, which was also piled up there. For every amount of ore the Maya people brought out, they were given the agreed-upon quantity of white sugar as immediate payment. This established the initial level of trust.
With the trust established, the Maya people worked even harder.
A significant amount of mithril ore was excavated and piled up near the mining site, forming small mountains.
It was evident that the motivation of the Maya people when working was much higher than when they were enslaved by the Norma people. The queen once again learned that to increase productivity, it was not achieved through oppression but through motivation.
The queen could not stay on the new continent indefinitely. Once arrangements were made, she returned to Bright Road to attend to her governance.
As for Robb, he stayed on the new continent!
To mine good ores, to find rare herbs, and to locate various strange materials, staying on the Fengmo Continent is not feasible. After thousands of years of development in the Fengmo Continent, they have already explored every corner. The chances of finding rare ores there are truly slim. On the contrary, the New Continent is like a blank canvas, just like a newly opened expansion pack in a game. Here, the probability of obtaining good ores is like a mining field. In the center of the mining field, a small church was built as Robb's temporary residence. Since the church was meant for Godfather to stay in, the masons worked diligently. They not only brought a lot of cement from the transmission gate to construct the entire house with cement, but also decorated it with colorful glass. Someone even suggested bringing in an organ, but Robb rejected their proposal. There was no need for an organ.
The reason why Robb built his home in the form of a church was only for the "waypoint." He needed a church and a cemetery to activate a waypoint. For the convenience of future travels, he decided to turn his temporary home into this form. Anyway, it didn't matter.
For example, now...
A Maya woman approached Robb, carrying a thick roll of leather on her shoulder.
The Maya woman was not particularly beautiful, but she had a good figure. Even with her face covered, when you looked at her body, she was still quite eye-catching. She placed the thick roll of leather she carried on Robb's table, wiped the sweat off her forehead, and then gestured animatedly.
Since the translator was not present, everyone had to communicate like this.
Robb saw her pointing to the leather and then pointing to a craftsman passing by who was holding a lunch box, and he understood. She wanted to exchange the leather for food.
For these simple Maya people, eating and dressing were their only pursuits. Or rather, because they were too poor, they had no time or mood to pursue other things.
The woman gestured vigorously, showing the appearance of having a lot of fur on her body, and even made a motion resembling an elephant trunk in front of herself.
