The stone factory, located within the three walls of Blackstone, took up a large part of the street, as Elsie had claimed.

The stone factory is not an ordinary small house, but a huge factory building that resembles a factory on Earth. At a cursory glance, Sean estimated that this stone factory must have dozens of acres of land, which was much larger than the manor of the poor lord of Elsie. It's just that I don't know if the Ludao Stone Factory is really so full, or if there is something else inside.

Led by Elsie, Sean soon arrived at the gates of the stone factory.

Before entering, I heard a roaring sound coming from inside, and it seemed that a large number of machines were working.

The world realm of the Miracle Continent is not the world realm of pure 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: goblin steam technology, alchemy technology looking at the minaret, and biotechnology of the Haltham Institute, and among them, the goblin's steam technology has the most extensive application range - of course, it will be eliminated the fastest in the future, because magic technology is the product of a comprehensive combination of magic and technological development, whether it is performance or function, it can completely eliminate steam technology.

However, for the time being, steam technology is still the mainstream of many industrial applications in this world.

The stone factory in Blackstone Town can make such a loud roar, and Sean estimates that there must be at least three kingdom-level steam power engines in it - noise pollution is also one of the important reasons why steam technology has been completely replaced by magic technology. Once the outer gates of the Tonis Fortress are in operation, the roaring sound can be transmitted ten miles away, and the sound of six Empire-level steam engines is by no means so simple, and it is rumored that the hundred people responsible for activating these power to turn the gears of the city gate must even put on five defensive spells to block the terrible noise interference.

The stone factory itself did not restrict the entry of outsiders, and it seemed that the director of the factory was happy to have someone come in to see what his factory looked like.

As a result, Sean also saw three kingdom-class steam engines located in the stone factory.

Each of these large power machines looks like a behemoth, about ten meters tall. It is nearly fifteen meters long. It is four meters wide and has a rectangular shape. On the left and right sides are huge movable rulers, and on the front is a boiler-like thing with five nuclear crystals of fire-type demonic beasts inside. Once the power engine is started, a steady stream of high-temperature heat will be generated in the nucleus, which will evaporate the water stored behind the power engine into steam, and then drive the moving rulers on the left and right sides to run rapidly. to generate powerful momentum.

The biggest advantage of this kind of steam engine is that it does not need to be supervised by manpower, and the reserve water of each steam engine can ensure that the power engine can work without stopping for three days. However, because the stone factory does not start work after nightfall, the reserve water source can generally be used for about six days, and usually on the seventh day, the stone factory will begin to arrange manpower to transport water back for refilling, which is the more labor-intensive place.

Later, Sean saw how the stone factory made black steel.

It's just that this kind of production method makes him feel a little different. Because they actually threw large pieces of black reef boulders into a machine, and then used the powerful agitation force generated by steam power to crush the black reef boulders and grind them into powder. After that, it is transported to another work area to be processed by hand, which seems to be poured into some other unknown things that are also powder, and then mixed with water condensation and poured into the model, and after solidification, the mold is dismantled and poured out, and then after several other reinforcement processes, it is made into black steel.

This stone-making process gives Sean a feeling. It's like the cement made on earth. Of course, the production process is a little more complicated. Moreover, the black steel stone made is also stronger than cement.

"These are the Black Steel?" I don't know what Lu Dao is for, Sean always feels like spending so much money on these things. It seems to be a bit of a loss.

"Or what do you think?" Elsie asked rhetorically, "Alright, you've finished your visit, let's go." The stone factory will close soon, and it will usually close at night, so it is a little strange that it is still open today. ”

Elsie, the guy, really thinks that Sean is just coming to visit the stone factory. Sean didn't bother to explain this, even if he could explain to Elsie why he was going out alone as a leader, Elsie would still have many reasons to overturn it.

For example, wouldn't it be nice to send a random person for such a trivial matter? Or maybe any lord is so idle.

Although these strange reasons seem to be tangled, Sean really doesn't know how to answer them. So he didn't bother to argue with this idiot, anyway, Sean knew what he was going to do in Mordeg. As for being invited to Elsie's manor, Sean didn't think it mattered, anyway, he would have a lot of time for the next month and a half, as long as he made this order by the way on the way back.

"Lord Elsi, why are you here?" Just as Elsie was about to take Sean away, a somewhat yin and yang voice suddenly sounded.

Sean and Elsie turned around and saw a middle-aged man as thin as a monkey straddle up. There were two other people beside him, but these two people seemed to be of great origin, and from the arrogance that emanated from each other, it could be concluded that these two people must be of noble origin. But how could there be two nobles with obvious extraordinary status in such a barren little place as Mordegling? And he came to find the director of the stone factory, which made Sean feel a little curious.

However, Elsie didn't seem to be very interested in this, and when he saw the skinny monkey-like factory director, he smiled and said hello. Of course, in terms of etiquette alone, Elsie's approach was impeccable, because he greeted not only the director of the factory, but also the two nobles, but in exchange for the other two snorting in an extremely soft nasal voice.

Even the director of the factory did not have the attitude that Elsie should have as a civilian, but instead looked arrogant.

"Who is this?" Finally, the skinny monkey factory director was willing to give his stingy gaze a little bit to Sean's body.

"On behalf of the Black Swan Castle, I came to purchase black steel stone." Before Elsie could speak, Sean had already taken the lead and said, "This time, the purchase volume is five thousand stones, and the first shipment demand is more than three thousand. ”

"Black Swan Castle?" A young nobleman standing beside the skinny monkey suddenly spoke, although his face showed a little doubt, but his tone and tone were full of a kind of contempt, "When did the Black Swan Castle have one more lord?" How do we not know the way? ”

"Are you a prophet?" Since the other party spoke with such a bad attitude. Sean isn't Elsie's kind of coward. Of course, there is no need to keep your voice down.

The other party's face was a little dazed, as if he didn't know what the relationship between the two was.

"Since you are not a prophet, then how can you possibly know everything in this world?" Sean said the second half of the sentence with a calm face, "To be a man, you must be self-aware." Don't always feel like you can do anything, when in fact, you can't do that. ”

was slightly stimulated by Sean's words. The young nobleman's face turned ugly, but before he could open his mouth to refute, another noble man who was also young had already spoken: "I'm really sorry, about the situation of the black steel stone, we have just negotiated with the director of the Deis factory, and the remaining four thousand black steel stones have been supplied to us. And then we will produce 6,000 pieces of black steel stone will also be supplied to us on a priority basis. ”

Although the tone and attitude of this nobleman were relatively modest, the condescending flavor in his words did not change in the slightest. And his immediate meaning is very obvious, we are ordering 10,000 pieces of black steel, you only order 5,000 pieces or stand aside.

"Did you pay the deposit?" Sean asked rhetorically.

When Sean asked this, the young aristocratic man smiled: "No." We in the Wyles family never need to pay a deposit upfront, because our family name alone is a guarantee! ”

When he said this, the aristocratic young man's face showed a look of fanatical adoration, and he had a real sense of honor and pride in his family.

And from the other party's words. Sean also immediately judged the identity and origin of this nobleman.

The Wyles Family. This is a relatively strong family that has always had a very good reputation. They were not the nobles of the Kingdom of Dabiang, but the powerful nobles of the fascist kingdom, a neighbor of the Kingdom of Dabiang. This family has once produced a famous bard in the mainland, as well as an iron-blooded prime minister, a cold-blooded general, and a powerhouse in the Holy Domain, and it is said that it has maintained some kind of good relationship with some of the ten major chambers of commerce.

However, the family is really best known for its stronghold, the Black Rose Castle, where the core of the family is located. As one of the five major castles in the south of the continent on the same level as the Black Swan Castle, the Black Rose Castle is a veritable war fortress, the cold colors of the whole body of pitch black and dark red make this castle have extremely strong defense capabilities and fortifications, the only pity is that the Black Rose Castle is only a castle after all, not a real fortress, so it can only accommodate hundreds of soldiers at most.

But now, since the Black Rose Castle has come to purchase black steel stone, and the purchase volume is still so large, this is by no means as simple as renovation. Most likely, the entire castle was to be expanded - something Sean hadn't heard of in the game. Could it be that the history of this world has begun to change in earnest?

But the most critical point at the moment is that if the black steel stone that Sean wants to buy is gone, he will be very unhappy.

And someone makes Sean unhappy, and of course Sean will not make the other party happy: "What's the use of guaranteeing, an average of one nobleman in the fascist kingdom goes bankrupt every day, and even has to sell the family property, who knows if it will be your Wyles family's turn tomorrow." ”

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

"Want to duel with my nobles? Be careful that you take your lives. Sean sneered, ignoring the two nobles, "I've already paid a deposit to Lord Elsie before, and in terms of order, I'm one step ahead of you." Do you want black steel? Okay, wait until I'm done with the 5,000 yuan. ”

"Wait!" The director of the factory, named Dyce, immediately had an opinion, "The Blackstone Stone Factory has always been managed by me!" When will it be Elsie's turn to collect the deposit! ”

"What's your last name?" Sean glanced coldly at the skinny monkey jumping up and down.

"Bopokachi!"

"If I'm not mistaken, this stone factory must be the Boulder family's business, right?" Sean said in a cold voice, "Since you are not from the Boulder family, then this family property naturally belongs to Lord Elsie in name. Don't say that you are in charge, even if you collect all the deposits or rewards, all the money will be handed over to Lord Elsie, when will it be your turn to call the shots. ”

"What does this little imp Elsie know......"

"Are you a nobleman?" Sean interrupted the skinny monkey without thinking, "If your title is not higher than that of Lord Elsey, then you had better be cautious in what you say, otherwise, according to the law of the nobility, those who are disrespectful to the nobles will be punished with thirty court rods." ”

At this moment, the skinny monkey didn't dare to speak casually, but his resentful eyes were staring at Sean. (To be continued.) )

PS: Six watches, finally made up.
