The ancestors of the Shangxun family started their business with a special business, theater troupe tours.
Grandfather Shang Bei established the "Wild Theater Troupe", recruiting extraordinary performers such as fishmen, fierce turkeys, bully locusts, and man-eating crabs to perform in various cities and earn ticket money.
Compared to the serious dramas of the Ale Theatre, the scripts and performances of the Wild Theater Company are much poorer.
However, the troupe has extraordinary performances, which is not found in theaters, and along with the commercial performances, Shangbei has also made many improvements and innovations.
Later, the "Wild Theater Company" took the ferocious supernatural beings and the beautiful and passionate girls as the key elements, and adapted them with some curious folklore, and evolved an exciting performance that could not be seen in the city.
Later, because the troupe's overly revealing costumes for the actresses and the blood-red berry juice of the extraordinary beings, the ferocious and filthy scenes were really offensive to moral standards, Yao City officially banned the Wild Troupe from entering the city.
Because they were banned, the Wild Theater Company became famous.
Many similar theater groups have sprung up and followed suit, using Beauty and the Beast as a selling point, with larger scales and weird performances emerging one after another.
At this time, the Wild Troupe quickly retreated.
Shang Bei disbanded the troupe. Because of its great reputation, the Wild Troupe had become a standout, but he only regarded it as a business and had little interest in the drama itself.
He took the money he earned and went to the north, settled in Crystal City, bought some shops, and began to enjoy life.
After Shang Bei's death, the family property passed into the hands of Shang Xun's father, Shang Nan.
Unlike Shang Bei, who was hard-working and hard-working, Shang Nan had no worries about food and clothing since he was a child. He invested all his money in the grain business. As a result, he suffered serious losses and soon lost all his family property. His house and shops were sold to pay off debts.
After being drunk, Shang Nan had a conflict with someone, hit his head on the glass, and died.
So I arrived at Shangxun. Apart from the name, I could tell that they were a merchant family, but in fact they lived in poverty.
He has been making glass in Crystal City since he was a child, and he also grew and bought flowers. In order to make money, he did many jobs. Due to his cleverness, skill and diligence, and his outstanding appearance, Shang Xundao rarely went hungry.
Later he joined a team of archaeologists, starting as an apprentice and gradually becoming a young archaeologist.
Although this line of work is not as poor as in the past, it is by no means a profession where one can make a fortune.
Shang Xun joined the archaeologists not because of his enthusiasm for the underground world, but because archaeologists can ride on the underground boat for free.
The Uji people are very friendly to archaeologists, which is their way of showing goodwill and respect.
What Shang Xun likes is Dixingzhou.
He has always wanted to drive this magnificent and wonderful land ship. Unfortunately, only the Wuji tribe can control and drive this vehicle, but cannot mobilize the Wu element, and the land boat is just a motionless stone ship.
The King of Bones, Pheles, revealed the "Fire Steam Furnace" to the public, and the entire world changed accordingly. The furnace and fire reorganized and constructed many devices and props.
Shang Xun had an idea.
Is it possible to use a fire and steam furnace to transform the Earth Boat, instead of using the black element as the driving core, and instead use a fire and steam furnace that can be used by ordinary people?
That way, you can drive the boat by yourself.
Shang Xun will always remember the time when he was on a boat. The fusiform boat turned rapidly on the ground, drifting sideways gracefully and neatly, the impact of the crazy acceleration and the heavy pushing feeling of the stone chair.
This short journey is like a dream.
Since then, Shang Xun has never had a similar feeling while boating in other places.
Later he learned that the driver at the time was the famous hero, Mr. Uluru.
Uluru was a great archaeologist who studied under Fabiani, the late founder of archaeology. Based on his mentor, he developed geology and discovered coal and fire wells, which greatly increased the Yao people's
Fuel reserves.
But few people know that Uluru is most famous among the Uzi people for his wild and radical ground boating skills.
He is the fastest land walker, and because of his speed, he is often examined by the older generation of Wuji people, who suspect that part of his body has melted and turned him into a dangerous person.
Many people will think of one sentence when they think of Uluru.
——Huazhou is an extension of Crystal City.
But few people know what his true motto is.
——If you are sailing without turning over the ground, it means you are not driving fast enough.
This sentence completely convinced Shang Xun.
He tried every means to visit Uluru to explore the possibility of such improvements, but he always came up short.
The closest one was in the Valley of the Gods. Originally, Shang Xun heard from his colleagues that Uluru found rose seeds in the ruins of the underground rose kingdom, so he gave the seeds to Lord Pinkman, the apostle of the Valley of the Gods.
When Shang Xun went there, he learned that Uluru had discovered a strange quagmire deep underground, so he commissioned someone else to bring the seeds.
The lost Shang Xun met a girl locally.
Her name is Hongye and she is the gardener of the rose garden.
The two quickly fell in love.
But Shang Xun quickly calmed down.
Compared with the dream of speed brought by the boat trip, the love between men and women seems too indifferent and short-lived.
Even if you really want to get married and have children, it will only happen after you have sailed across the earth.
This boat must be sailed.
He told Hongye: "I will come back by boat to marry you, wait for me."
But if you want to transform the Earth Boat, you must first own an Earth Boat.
Nowadays, the number of land boats is increasing, but they are still firmly in the hands of the Wuji people.
Wuda City will not sell the land boat to the public, nor will it be dumped out - because the bird contained in the boat will cause an explosion, and it is very dangerous without the operation of the Wuji tribe.
Even if there is a homeless boat, the price is so high that it is impossible for Shang Xun to afford it.
Just when he was showing no worries, things suddenly took a turn for the better.
The five major cities jointly issued bounty tasks, inviting people with relevant technical experience in potions, medicine, pharmacy, engineering, smelting, casting, forging, construction, masonry, carpentry... to come to White Castle to help solve the problems faced by scholars.
a major problem.
As soon as Shang Xun heard about the high reward, he rushed over without saying a word.
The academic at the reception described the problem.
Shang Xun was a little surprised. There was obviously a better solution to this problem, but scholars chose to use the most complicated methods...
The purpose of White Castle is to use dragon language to cast spells, so that people can cast spells like dragons.
Shang Xun was puzzled.
Humans are human beings, and dragons are dragons. To make a human being comparable to the dragon clan, it may be possible for a very small number of people, but it is impossible for most people.
Whether it is the pain and dizziness caused by blood loss or the wounds that break the skin, most people are unwilling to do so.
Shang Xun thought about it.
It's very close to the idea of building a steam stove for a boat trip.
He told his own method.
The scholar's expression, which was already impatient, changed at the speed of light. The scholar grabbed him and took him into the White Castle.
Next, Shang Xun met a series of legendary characters.
The King of Bones, Philus, is just like the folklore, he has a ferocious skull, but his words are gentle and pragmatic, without any condescension.
Longji, the dragon-born prophet, has a pair of majestic bat wings and mysterious tattoos that look like scales on his body. He looks calm and restrained.
Seer Shi Bao remained unhurried, listening patiently to everyone's words, and then recorded them with a quill in his notebook.
The dwarf craftsman has endless hammers and usually doesn't say a word, but when it comes to professional topics in production, he immediately becomes passionate and pays close attention to details.
…
Shang Xun finished explaining his complete thoughts.
The halls of White Castle were silent.
After a while, Philus said to him: "From now on, you will be a lifelong scholar of White Castle. If you have any requests, just ask."
Shang Xun immediately said: "I want to sail a boat... and use a fire and steam stove to modify it."
"no problem."
Philus clapped his skeleton palm and made a clicking sound: "Everyone, if there is no objection, we will start trying a new plan! Everyone, get moving!"
The scholars changed direction and began to discuss in groups.
…
Lu Yao came out of the shower and was drying his hair when he noticed a reminder pop up on the simulator.
【The Yao people created the brass stove dragon.】
[The Brass Furnace Dragon has caused great repercussions among the extraordinary.]
[The extraordinary ones were awed by the appearance of the Brass Furnace Dragon, and developed a fanatical worship of you, and their faith was greatly improved.]
The upper right corner shows that faith has increased, and coupled with the recent income from fire props, the total reserve of fire of faith has reached 21.23 million.
Lu Yao did the math.
There are still only a few extraordinary people among the believers. Extraordinary people can bring more fire of faith, but even so, they cannot achieve this order of magnitude.
In other words, the main impact of the Brass Furnace Dragon this time was the radiation of extraordinary beings from the outside world, which shocked them so much that they gave up their faith.
Good guy, artificial dragon, right? This crooked extraordinary technology tree will really surprise people.
