Act 106: Tonigel and the Young Lord (6) What is everyone's support?)
Scene 106: Tony Geer and the Young Lord (6) (Second update, everyone’s support)
Belu on the side listened to Brando's words and nodded.
"So, sir, what idea did you just say you had in mind?" The old man took out a pipe from his arms, but he looked at Brando and remembered that the lord didn't like the smell of smoke, so he hesitated and put it away.
go back.
"How did that happen?" Brando answered the question and asked in addition.
Beilu was slightly startled, but he immediately realized: "Are you talking about that thing? More than two hundred sets have been made, and the factory has been fully operational recently to make this."
He looked back and said: "But there are still not enough manpower. If the scale of this factory can be expanded to more than a hundred people, then I can fully meet your requirements."
Two hundred sets, Brando calculated, was slightly lower than his requirement. However, there was nothing that could be done about it. Expanding the factory to more than a hundred people, let alone finding so many skilled workers, was impossible.
And even though there are so many blacksmiths, there are not so many magic tools. Brando doesn't even consider the cycle and cost of hand-making armor.
He shook his head: "Master Beilu, excluding other difficulties, the fir collar alone cannot support such a large workshop. Even the Mintai area cannot support it. There is no iron and no coal-"
Brando paused for a moment, then suddenly shook his head and said, "It would be great if we could make an elemental furnace."
"Elemental stove?" Bolu raised his head keenly. In his industry, he had to deal with all kinds of stoves. Although he had never heard of the thing Brando mentioned, he could probably guess what it was.
Brando nodded. The elemental furnace can directly absorb the elemental fire free in the air for smelting. It is a major reform in forging technology.
However, in the minds of young people, the fire element furnace was invented probably twenty years later, and the inventor was the Eruin.
It's just that he couldn't remember that person's name clearly at the moment, because in the next twenty years, due to the surge in magic power, strong people emerged in large numbers, and various inventions based on magic diversion devices also emerged one after another. He had to remember them one by one.
It's really hard to live there.
In addition, these things themselves have little to do with players, and Brando was not a professional player in the past. He couldn't help but think that it would be great if his senior sister was here, she is a master in this field.
However, he shook his head and threw away this unrealistic fantasy, and instead tried to remember that the guy who invented the fire element furnace seemed to be an elementalist and came from a noble family - whether he was an Anlek or a Viero.
, he doesn’t remember much.
While he was thinking, he roughly explained the structure of that thing to Belu.
The old man's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Sir, is there really such a thing? Can it be used without coal? Or other fuels?" Belu's face glowed. He could almost imagine how significant that would be, just from an economic perspective.
Based on the above factors, you can save immeasurable expenses.
Not to mention that the flame created by the fire element is pure and is not an oxidation reaction in the general sense. The significance of using this method to remove impurities from metal is comparable to obtaining an artifact for an old blacksmith like him.
"Yes, I saw it in an ancient document -" Brando hesitated and replied subconsciously: "I think it should be a lost technology of Buga's wizards."
"The skills of Buga's wizards? Sir, Buga's wizards use magic forging to complete the forging -" Medisa on the side frowned rarely after hearing Brando's words. She raised objections, but her tone remained the same as before.
Rourou: "They shouldn't know how to use stoves, or has it changed in recent times?"
Brando was stunned, and he immediately realized the slip of the tongue. In the past, without Medisa, he could naturally let him mess around, but now this little elf girl who is also of silver blood knows very well the craftsmen of Buga, who is also of silver blood.
The history of wizards.
He thought for a while and finally found an excuse: "I don't know about this. After all, I am just the descendant of the tower wizard."
Medisa nodded: "But I have thought of a possibility for what the adults are talking about. This seems to be the way of the Min'er people." As she spoke, she glanced at Brando curiously with her bright silver eyes.
: "The elemental forging method was lost before the War of the Saints. I think the document you saw should be a description of the skills of the wizards of Buga about their enemies -"
Brando couldn't help but sweat profusely when he heard this explanation. He was glad that this big lie was actually solved by Medisha. It must be said that it was Martha who blessed him. He prayed in his heart, and then nodded.
Head indicates that may be the case.
But at this time, Belu seemed to have come back to his senses from the dream scene. He said with some emotion: "Does your Excellency know the structure of this stove?"
structure?
Brando was stunned. He thought for a moment, looked at the old man and said: "The structure is actually quite simple, and it can't be said to be difficult to draw -"
"How about we give it a try?" Belu immediately became eager to try it. For this old man, the attraction of this elemental stove was too great. He patted his chest excitedly and promised: "Sir, this old man of mine has other abilities.
No, but I dare say that no one in Eruin can compare with me in the art of forging. Sir, you might as well tell me, maybe we can really reproduce this kind of thing!"
But Brando shook his head: "It's not that simple, Master Belu. Although the structure of this elemental furnace is simple, there are several difficulties. One is the magic core and magic transmission device that provide the power source; the other is what to use.
Method to collect the fire elements floating in the air."
"The third is how to transform these fire elements into a continuous flame."
"The first difficulty requires magic technology, the second difficulty is the issue of elementalists, and the third difficulty needs to be solved through alchemy. As for the structure of the forge itself, I believe that you can easily overcome it, master."
Brando shook his head: "But what about other problems, can the master solve them?"
Beru was speechless.
"Collecting free elements," Medissa said, "Actually, it's not a difficult problem."
"oh?"
"Little girl, do you know?" Master Beilu suddenly jumped up and couldn't help asking loudly; his loud voice attracted the attention of many craftsmen and apprentices around him. The old man blushed, but he still couldn't help being excited.
Zhiqing asked again: "Let's talk about that, little girl, this thing is too important to us——"
Brando shook his head, not thinking that this thing was very important. It was nothing more than a stove. Although it solved the problem of fuel shortage - and perhaps also improved the smelting of silver mines in Schaflund - Tonigg
Since we do not produce iron, this other bottleneck can also be a death sentence for the expansion plan of the Belu factory.
In his plan, the expansion of the Fir Collar's workshop would have to wait at least until after his trip to Ampelsel was over.
However, Brando obviously did not expect that his subtle movements to express his inner feelings did not escape Beilu's eyes. The old man immediately turned his finger on him and taught him a serious lesson: "Lord, don't underestimate this thing.
I can save you a lot of money - with this money you can buy more iron ore, and I can also make more weapons and armor for you, so that you can raise more troops - "
He paused for a moment: "Don't you love Your Highness the Princess? Without an army, you can't even protect yourself, so how can you support Your Highness the Princess?"
"The situation in the north is becoming more and more tense day by day. I don't think Her Majesty the Princess can wait until the day when you slowly grow up and have full wings."
As soon as Brando heard the forging master start chattering away, he felt dizzy and nodded quickly. However, when he heard the other party's question about money, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he changed his initial view.
Belu can see the significance of the elemental furnace, and others must be the same. Not to mention the great significance of this thing to the forging and smelting industry, even if you miniaturize it and sell it to those nobles, you can still make a lot of money.
of trading.
Brando has the experience of the past few decades and naturally knows that this is a business that can make a profit without losing money. He was still worried about what goods to bring for the trip to Ampelser, but now it seems that there is a way
The broad road lies before you.
Thinking of this, he nodded quickly, interrupted Belu's words, and said to Medisa: "Then just tell the master, Medisa."
Medisa smiled slightly and replied quietly: "Actually, the method is very simple, just use the magic circle."
"Magic circle?"
Brando frowned, "But releasing the fire element also requires magic arrays. The absorbed and released magic arrays cannot be stacked together. Moreover, the absorbed magic arrays cannot withstand too harsh conditions, unlike the release array that can withstand high temperatures.
…”
"If a reinforcement array is used, it may affect the effect of absorbing free elements."
Although Brando only has a few levels of alchemy at the moment, he still has the knowledge from past games, and these basic knowledge are not difficult for him.
"It's time to separate."
"If we separate, what about the transmission of elements?" Brando knows that magic transmission is no longer a problem in Vaughnde today, but the transmission of elements is another problem.
At least to this day, he has not heard of anyone who can transfer elements by any means-except for the elementalist to complete it himself-but if an elemental furnace needs an elementalist to guard it 24 hours a day, then
At least six to seven formal elementalists are probably enough.
This investment may lead to some losses outweighing the gains.
"My lord, you have forgotten that I am a silver elf." Medissa said in a low voice.
Brando was stunned, what does this have to do with the Silver Elf?
"Little guy," but at this moment he suddenly heard Otales's voice in his heart, "I have always wanted to ask, is the little silver elf girl following you a member of the elf royal family?"
