"Jen, don't be psychologically stressed. To be fair, are these jewelry exquisite?" Sulun picked up a piece of jewelry and said to Jean.

"Yes, these jewelry are the most exquisite jewelry I've ever seen." Gene nodded.

"Then is that, we need to give him a reasonable value for this exquisite jewelry." Sulun said with his hands spreading.

"As for the jewelry made by real elves, how many people have seen it now?" Sulun picked up the pair of bracelets that were shaped like Immortals and said, "Since few people have seen it, what are you worried about?"

"At that time, you will say that this is discovered from the ruins, and then a little guide. With the exquisiteness of these jewelry, those people will naturally believe it."

Why did Sulun insist on pulling these jewelry onto the elves? It’s very simple, because the price is that in the human kingdom, the nobles are very fond of things left by the elves, so the price of things that are related to the elves will at least increase by several times.

The second wife of his cheap father brought a necklace from her parents' home that was said to be from the hand of an elf. It is said that this was a wedding gift prepared for her by her father, Marquis Osborne. Sulun had seen it several times at that time. To be honest, the necklace was indeed exquisitely crafted, but it seemed to be different from the jewelry in his hands.

This is also the reason why he dared to pretend to be a jewelry made by an elf. Elf has returned to the Elf Forest for hundreds or thousands of years. How many jewelry made by an elf can be found, so Su Lun is not worried that this will be exposed.

Gene is indeed a business-minded guy. After Su Lun reminded him, he immediately prepared a set of rhetoric. After Su Lun's differences were filled, a story was fabricated by him.

Originally, these exquisitely made jewelry were at most over 1,000 jinars, but now with the blessing of the elf background, they can be sold for at least 5,000 jinars.

Five thousand gold ners were purchased as food, which was enough to support his territory through the cold winter.

After discussing with Gene, Sulun asked him to go back and prepare. The caravan set out in the past few days. This time, Sulun, the caravan's escort, prepared to let the new barbarians go halfway, and Johnson also brought half of them over, in order to allow these new barbarians to grow up as soon as possible after several battles.

With Johnson and other veterans, Sulun doesn't have to worry about the new barbarians suffering. The goblins, kowtowers, gnolls and other encounters along the way will be upgraded after a few round trips.

After getting things done, Sulun began to deal with another crisis facing the territory.

Frost Pterodes generally do not attack humans, because compared with preys such as bison, giant horned deer, and gorilla on the wasteland, the risk of attacking humans is higher, so it is safe for the time being. However, after winter, the animals on the wasteland are rarely active, and the Frost Pterodes are likely to attack humans after there is no sufficient prey.

Sulun could not place the safety of his territory on whether the Frost Pterodes would attack, so the best way was to make a crossbow.

Before, Su Lun had made a crossbow cart and was very familiar with the structure of the crossbow cart. More importantly, he later gained mechanical control and gained a lot of mechanical knowledge, and had some improvement methods for this kind of crossbow cart.

There are also crossbow chariots in this world, with different names called bed crossbows, giant crossbows, etc. In fact, they are all things. The crossbow chariots have complex structures and are inconvenient to operate. A crossbow chariot requires eight to ten people to complete the operation.

The range of a crossbow can reach a thousand meters, but this distance is actually no longer powerful, let alone accuracy. In fact, the effective range of a crossbow is between 400 and 600. Of course, the accuracy issue is difficult to guarantee.

This kind of crossbow cart is powerful. It uses a two-meter-long javelin as a weapon and can be shot into the rammed earth city wall within 400 meters. Even the brick and stone city wall can penetrate more than one foot deep. Even if the ice winged dragon is shot by this kind of crossbow cart, it will not be better. However, although this weapon is powerful, it has many disadvantages.

First, the winding speed is slow, and when winding, several strong men with large and round waists need to operate together. Second, the accuracy is low. Basically, after more than two hundred meters, the crossbow arrows have no accurate head. Third, it is difficult to carry and the crossbow cart is heavy, and in general, they are fixed on the city wall.

Fourth, maintenance is difficult. The bowstrings used by the crossbow cart are specially made, preferably some high-level monster tendons, but these tendons are too few and expensive, so most crossbow carts use specially processed beef tendons, wrapping the number and beef tendon into one, and adding silk wire and other mixed windings. The bowstrings made in this way have a short service life. Basically, they need to change the bowstrings after six or seven times.

There are also some other shortcomings. After Sulun's transformation, although all these defects were not solved, they have also been improved a lot. The most obvious one is that the winding speed has been accelerated, and the winding part uses pulley sets and lever originals. The operation of the crossbow truck is much easier.

At the same time, the crossbow car uses stainless steel as components, making maintenance easier and its service life has increased. Of course, not all of them are good. This increases the weight of the crossbow car again.

Su Lun divided the design drawings of the crossbow into various parts, and then asked the blacksmith shop to make them according to the drawings, and finally he personally assembled all the components. In this way, only he knew the production process of the crossbow. The bow string of the crossbow uses the main tendons of the Raging Wind Demon Tiger.

After special processing of the main tendons of more than 20 meters long, a total of sixteen bow strings were made. This time, Su Lun was preparing to make eight crossbow trucks, including eight bow strings, and the rest were reserved for backup.

Eight crossbows were placed on all sides of the town. Sulun specially built eight high platforms in the city to install these crossbows. With these eight crossbows, even if the ice winged dragon comes to attack, they must be carefully considered.

The construction of the territory is still in an orderly manner. The first batch of iron ore mined in the mines was also transported to the port by water. Although the boating speed was very slow and the boatman needed to row the boat, even so, it was much faster than land transportation.

Su Lun knew exactly what the roads in the wilderness were. Compared to the ore transported by ships at one time, it was more than ten times that of a carriage.
