Chapter 179

The stone factory located within the three walls of Blackstone Town, as Elsie said, occupied a large street.

The stone factory is not an ordinary small house, but a huge factory very similar to the factory on earth. At first glance, Sean estimated that the stone factory must have dozens of mu of land, which is much larger than the manor of the poor Lord Elsie. I just don't know if the stone factory is really so full, or if there is something else in it.

Led by Elsie, Sean soon came to the gate of the stone factory.

Before entering, I heard a roar inside. It seemed that a large number of machines were working.

The world of miracle continent is not a pure world of sword and magic.

Not to mention the magic technology that is destined to be carried forward in the future, and can even easily change the national pattern and historical process. In modern times alone, there are three major scientific and technological development directions: the steam technology of goblins, the alchemy technology overlooking the spire, and the biotechnology of the hellson Institute. Among them, the steam technology of goblins is the most widely used - of course, it will be eliminated the fastest in the future, because magic guidance technology is the product of the comprehensive combination of magic and scientific and technological development, both in performance and function, Can completely eliminate steam technology.

However, at present, steam technology is still the mainstream of many industrial applications in the world.

The stone factory in Blackstone town can make such a loud roar. Sean estimates that there must be at least three kingdom class steam power machines in it - noise pollution, which is also one of the important reasons why steam technology has been completely replaced by magic guide technology. Once the outer gate of tonis fortress runs, the roaring sound can be transmitted to ten miles away. The starting sound of six imperial steam power machines is by no means so simple. It is said that the 100 manpower responsible for starting these power and working together to rotate the gate gear must even be equipped with five defense magic to block the terrible noise interference.

The stone factory itself did not restrict the access of outsiders. It seemed that the factory director was glad to have someone come in to visit his factory.

So Sean saw three kingdom class steam power machines in the stone making plant.

Each of these large power machines looks like a behemoth, about ten meters high, nearly fifteen meters long and four meters wide, in a rectangular shape. There are huge movable rulers on the left and right sides. On the front is a thing similar to a boiler, with five nuclear crystals of fire Warcraft built in. Once the power machine is started, a steady stream of high-temperature heat will be generated in the nuclear crystal to evaporate the water stored behind the power machine into steam, and then drive the movable rulers on the left and right sides to run quickly to generate strong power.

The biggest advantage of this steam power machine is that it does not need human care. The reserved water source of each steam power machine can ensure that the power machine can work for three days without interruption. However, because the stone factory does not start work at night, the reserved water source can generally be used for about six days. Usually, on the seventh day, the stone factory will start arranging people to transport water back for filling, which is a place that consumes more manpower.

Then Sean saw how the stone factory made black steel stone.

However, this manufacturing method made him feel a little different, because they actually threw large pieces of black reef boulders into a machine, and then used the powerful stirring force generated by steam power to crush the black reef boulders and grind them into powder. Then it is transported to another work area for manual processing. It seems that it is to pour other unknown things that are also powder. Finally, it is mixed with water and condensed into the model. After solidification, the formwork is removed and poured out, and then it is made into black steel stone through several other reinforcement processes.

This stone making process makes Sean feel like cement on earth. Of course, the manufacturing process is a little more complicated, and the black steel stone is stronger than cement.

"These are black steel stones?" I don't know why, Sean always felt that spending so much money on these things seemed to be a little at a loss.

"Or what do you think?" Elsie asked, "well, you've finished your visit. Let's go quickly. The stone factory will close soon. Generally, it will close at night. I don't know why it is still open today. It's really strange. "

Elsie, this guy, really still thinks Sean is just going to visit the stone factory. Sean was too lazy to explain this. Even if he could explain to Elsie why he went out alone as a leader, Elsie would still have many reasons to overturn it.

For example, wouldn't it be nice to send someone to such a small thing? Or where lords are so free.

Although these strange reasons seem tangled, Sean really doesn't know how to answer. So he didn't bother to argue with the fool. Anyway, Sean knew what he was doing in modge. As for being invited to Elsie's manor, Sean doesn't care. Anyway, he will have a lot of time in the next month and a half, as long as he places the order on the way back.

"Lord Elsie, why are you here?" Just as Elsie was about to take Sean away, a strange voice suddenly sounded.

Sean and Elsie looked back and saw a middle-aged man as thin as a monkey walking across the street. There were two other people around him, but they seemed to come from a big source. Only from the arrogant temperament emanating from each other, we can conclude that these two people must be of noble origin. But how could there be two nobles with obvious extraordinary status in such a barren place as modge's collar? And still came to the director of the stone factory, which made Sean a little curious.

But Elsie didn't seem very interested in this. When he saw the skinny factory director, he smiled and said hello. Of course, only in terms of etiquette, Elsie's practice was impeccable, because he said hello not only to the factory director, but also to the two nobles, but in exchange for each other's extremely light snort.

Even the factory director did not have the proper attitude towards Elsie as a civilian. Instead, he looked arrogant.

"Who is this?" Finally, the skinny monkey factory director was willing to look at Sean a little.

"I'm here to purchase black steel stone on behalf of the black swan castle." Before Elsie could speak, Sean said, "the purchase volume this time is 5000 stones, and the demand for the first batch of freight is more than 3000."

"Black swan castle?" A young nobleman standing next to the skinny monkey suddenly said, although his face was a little confused, his voice and tone were full of a kind of high contempt, "when did the black swan castle have a lord? Why don't we know? "

"Are you a prophet?" Since the other party spoke with such a bad attitude, Sean was not Elsie's kind of advice. Of course, there was no need to be humble.

The other party's face was a little confused, and he didn't seem to know the relationship between the two.

"Since you are not a prophet, how can you know everything in the world?" Sean said the second half of the sentence calmly, "to be a man, you should have self-knowledge. Don't always think you can do anything. In fact, you don't do that. "

Stimulated by Sean's words, the young noble's face rose ugly, but before he could refute, another young noble man had already said: "I'm really sorry. We have just settled with factory director dais about the situation of black steel stone, and the only 4000 pieces of black steel stone in stock have been supplied to us, And then we will give priority to the supply of 6000 pieces of black steel stone. "

Although the tone and attitude of this aristocrat were relatively modest, the lofty taste in his words had not changed at all. And his immediate intention is very obvious. We ordered 10000 pieces of black steel stone. If you only ordered 5000 pieces, you'd better stand aside.

"Have you paid the deposit?" Sean asked back.

Asked by Sean, the young noble man smiled: "No. We wiles never need to pay a deposit in advance, because our family name alone is a guarantee! "

Speaking of these words, the noble young man showed a look of fanatical worship on his face and had a real sense of honor and pride for his family.

From each other's words, Sean immediately judged the identity and origin of the aristocrat.

Wiles family, this is a family with strong strength and good reputation. They are not the nobles of the kingdom of dabion, but the powerful nobles of * * * Kingdom, the neighboring country of the kingdom of dabion. This family has been a famous bard in the mainland, an Iron-blooded prime minister, a cold-blooded general and a strong man in the holy land. It is said that they also maintain a good relationship with some of the top ten chambers of Commerce.

However, the most famous of this family is the black rose castle, the stronghold where the core of the family is located. As one of the five major castles in the south of the mainland, which is as famous as the black swan castle, the black rose castle is a real war fortress. The dark and dark red color makes the castle have extremely strong defense ability and fortifications. The only pity is that the black rose castle is only a castle, not a real fortress, So it can only accommodate hundreds of soldiers at most.

However, since the black rose Castle comes to purchase black steel stone, and the purchase volume is so large, it is by no means as simple as renovation. Most likely, it is to expand the architectural pattern of the whole ancient castle - something Sean had never heard of in the game. Is it true that the history of the world has begun to change?

But the most important thing right now is that if the black steel stone Sean wants to buy is gone, he will be very unhappy.

Some people make Sean unhappy, and of course Sean won't make the other party happy: "what's the use of security? On average, one aristocrat in * * * Kingdom goes bankrupt every day, and even wants to sell off the family industry. Who knows if it will be your wiles family's turn tomorrow."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two nobles from the wiles family immediately became solemn and Xiao killed: "I ask you to apologize immediately, otherwise, we will..."

"Want to duel with my nobleman? Be careful you put your lives on the line. " Sean sneered and ignored the two nobles. "I've paid a deposit to Lord Elsie before. In order, I'm one step ahead of you. You want Blackstone? Yes, I'll wait until I get the five thousand dollars. "

"Wait!" The director named dais immediately had an opinion, "I have always managed the Blackstone stone factory! When is it Elsie's turn to collect the deposit? "

"What's your last name?" Sean gave the skinny monkey a cold look.

"Popocchi!"

"If I remember correctly, this stone factory should be the boulder family industry?" Sean said in a cold voice, "since you are not from the boulder family, the family property belongs to Lord Elsie in name. Don't say you're in charge. Even if you collect all the deposit or remuneration, all the money will be handed over to Lord Elsie. When will it be your turn to give orders? "

"What does Elsie know..."

"Are you a noble?" Sean interrupted the skinny monkey without thinking, "if your title is not higher than Lord Elsie, you'd better be careful. Otherwise, according to the aristocratic law, those who disrespect the upper aristocracy will have to fight 30 sticks."

Now, the skinny monkey didn't dare to speak at will, but his resentful eyes were staring at Sean（ To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly ticket at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
