The valley that followed became very lively, with piles of ore filling many open spaces.
If you look closely, you can see that beneath the surface silver ore is white gypsum ore.
Stubborn Sen nodded in satisfaction. Foolish Worsis, still wanting to mine for free? This time, he'll make you spit out everything you robbed him of before.
A few days later, the familiar sound of a scout reporting came again. Jiang Sen knew it was time for him to leave again, but this time a smile appeared on his face.
At the valley entrance, Earl Worthy rode into the valley as he had done the previous two times. He was quite excited; he had already refined the silver ore from the previous trips into silver, and he had basically made up for his previous losses, except for the manpower lost.
Looking at the valley full of ore, he believed he could make a small profit this time.
"Ares, I will definitely reward you handsomely when we get back this time."
Count Worthy wasn't blinded by victory. He felt his method couldn't be used anymore; too many times would arouse suspicion, even in a fool. He needed to think of another way. So, after today's incident, he planned to use it one more time, but not again.
Having received praise from Count Worthy, Ares became somewhat arrogant, having completely overestimated his abilities after these incidents.
He thought he was an extremely intelligent and omnipotent person; checking the valley and informing others of the situation was a simple matter that couldn't be simpler.
He had lost all the caution a spy should have. He said smugly, "Thank you, my master. You can rest assured that the valley is in my hands! I will not let your property suffer like the old Asers did."
Count Vouchis ignored Ares and went straight to the ore pile.
Huh? Why are there white minerals inside? Did I accidentally dig them up by mistake and put them in there?
Count Vouchis reached out to take the white ore out, but as soon as he touched it, the pile of ore rolled down instantly.
Count Worsis was dumbfounded. Apart from a little silver ore on the outside, the inside was all that white ore.
"Strip away all those ores!" Count Vorsis roared to the side.
Everyone was terrified and quickly grabbed tools to dig up the entire pile of ore.
"ah!"
Everyone was stunned. All the piles of ore were filled with that white ore.
Vorsis was furious; it was clear those barbarians had done it on purpose, and they had discovered his plan.
But what's the point of them doing this? Just to provoke him. That's completely unnecessary! Coming here to provoke him comes at a price.
Forget it, let's go back! Since the barbarians already know, there's no point in staying here. Let them be angry if they want!
Anyway, he earned a lot of free ore.
Count Worsis was no longer angry. He said to everyone, "Take all that silver ore away. Although it's not as much as the last few times, there's still quite a lot in all these piles."
"Ares, it's not your fault. Don't panic. Just stay here and observe the situation. If no one comes for a month, then go back, understand?"
Count Worthy already sensed that the barbarians wouldn't come, because the barbarians already knew his plans.
Count Vorsis left the valley, and Ares hid in the same old spot again. However, he didn't take the big incident seriously, assuming the barbarians had already left.
But just as he was about to lie down and rest, a sword pierced his heart.
The reward that Count Worthy never received, he would never get.
