Zhu Yiwei showed her head from the door of the studio. She raised the scroll in her hand and shook it at Bolu who was sitting behind the workbench.
"The official documents for the order we agreed on last time are finally here. Do you want to know what exactly was ordered?"
"It's finally here! I thought the order was cancelled."
"This time it took long enough."
She took two steps, came to Bolu who had already stood up, and handed out the scroll in her hand.
"Let me see. What are these? 5,000 steel swords? 1,000 sets of infantry breastplates? 1,000 sets of pauldrons with shoulder plates? 5,000 helmets?"
Bolu raised his head in confusion:
"Star Island has finally become popular for mages to use knives. Are physical and magic weapons both explosive?"
Bolu looked carefully at the items on the scroll in front of him, and couldn't help but start to think about it.
"The mage who is facing a bunch of bugs with a shield opens a shield. Before rushing in, he releases a strong light spell to blind the enemy's eyes, and then slaps the shield full of spikes on the opponent's face? Finally, pull out a
Ice ring double explosion?"
Zhu Yiwei, who had already walked to the tea table, was controlling the hot water to pour into the tea cup. When she heard Polu's words, she almost shook the hot water to the wall!
"You are so talented and talented! Your head is full of strange ideas! Don't interrupt! Let's first tell you whether you will accept this order?"
"Okay, take it, the first order from Star Island, even if it's a mosquito leg. But is that really it? It doesn't even fit the leg armor and shield? Anyway, they are all ready-made molds, so you can make as many as you want.
make?"
Polu shrugged indifferently.
After saying that, he thought for a while and added: "Wait, are they worn by humans? We only have the sizes of ordinary humans!"
She let the teacup float beside her, turned around and rolled her eyes:
"Of course it's a human being! So much? Are you used to following the Knights? So you think everyone is a tin can?"
"Didn't the group of people who went to Hongshan to support last time also have armor?"
"Those people are also small military nobles! Isn't it normal to have equipment?"
Zhu Yiwei couldn't help but raise her voice!
"As for these equipment, the budget department has to do the final calculation before they dare to place an order. In their understanding, these weapons are enough for you to wait for a while."
After staying on Ta Island for a long time, Zhu Yiwei was also confused by Bolu's strange word choice. She now also calls making things rubbish.
Polu smiled and waved his hand:
"Don't be ridiculous, they don't know, don't you know? Hasn't your teacher also seen my factory? If I start up the die forging machine, such a small quantity can be made in just a few days."
Zhu Yiwei gave a rare sigh and complained.
"I said it, but no one believed it. And the teacher couldn't be contacted. I heard that he went out to do errands again in the past few days. I don't know where he went! This is something I have been saving for a long time! And this batch of orders is still there
The teacher sent a summons to inform the person on the island directly, but he cannot be contacted now and there is no way to make further confirmation."
"It is said that he only had time to ask you to order a batch of equipment for people. Then... then the communication was cut off."
Bolu sensitively noticed that Zhu Yiwei seemed to be hiding something.
"The budget department had to estimate the number by itself. They deduced that you are only two alchemists. It is impossible to make armors all the time every day. Master Landau also has his own research work. So they estimate that the two of you can make armors in one day.
It will take 100 days to make 10 sets or 1,000 sets. The other manpower is fully engaged in manufacturing weapons, so the shortest estimated construction period is 100 days!"
"This is too much to underestimate us. Do you think we are rubbing it with our hands?"
As he spoke, Polu lowered his head and carefully searched for the description of the armor in the document, but found nothing.
"Is there a specified style? If not, at least tell me how big the armor is? Are you sure you know that the armor we make is not decorated?"
"The one you prepared for Bator is suitable. After all, the pre-ordered users of this group of armor are still using the short daggers you made before - it fits perfectly."
Bolu raised his head in confusion.
"My dagger? Aren't most of those things sold to Nazwa? Don't tell me that the customer of this order is actually Nazwa!?"
"Wait, don't get excited!"
Zhu Yiwei raised her hand and rubbed a mechanized mind, and this buff (?) spell took effect on the unsuspecting Boru on the spot!
"???Can this spell still be used in this way? Okay, now you can tell me what it is for. When you spoke just now, you seemed to be hiding something."
The mechanized mind gave Bolu a strong heart, and he rubbed his hands with a serious face.
Zhu Yiwei thought about it in her heart, and decided to tell the truth now that she had been discovered.
"If you think about it carefully, although Nazwa fought with you, he didn't actually cause much damage?"
"correct."
If you don't count the losses of Bato and those people.
"So although you hate them emotionally, in fact you don't have any real hatred against them. They also exposed some problems in advance to avoid getting into bigger troubles in the future?"
"correct."
"Then let me tell you bluntly, the giants who entered the Red Mountain and the giants who fought with the insects on the Western Front are not a whole as you imagined."
"Want to hear the details."
"Nazwa is not so much a country ruled by giants as it is a union of giant tribes. Do you know what a union of tribes means?"
"I understand. It's a mess, and no one is willing to accept it. The louder your fists are, the louder your voice will be. There are still people waiting to hold you back."
Zhu Yiwei was silent for a moment. Bolu's answer was too straightforward and blocked the lines she had already thought of, which made her a little uncomfortable. However, due to the effect of the mechanized mind, Bolu's thinking did not pause at all, and he continued to speak.
:
"Are you trying to say that this was an illegal action carried out privately by a small group of giants without the authorization and consent of the tribal leader?"
"?"
"Judging from this operation, is the direct power of the giant's tribal leader being weakened? Is his control over the border warlords declining? Your order is to strengthen the direct power of the giant's tribal leader to strengthen his control over this loose
Is the tribal alliance in control?”
"And also ensure that he has the advantage and initiative in the next period of time?"
"So we annihilated part of the giant army that invaded the territory, and actually helped this shaky tribal leader?"
"That's right. He suffered heavy losses in the battle on the Western Front."
Bolu showed a frank look and came closer:
"So give me a reason worth overcoming our emotional aversion to arming them."
"The giants objectively blocked the insects from heading towards us... No, what about your mechanization effect?"
"Isn't this more?"
Bolu waved his hand: "It's okay, you mean the faction we support, no matter what their attitude is towards us, at least now they are playing a role in blocking bugs for us?"
Zhu Yiwei looked at Bolu dubiously. Although she felt that Bolu's mechanized mental effect had disappeared for some reason, since he was still discussing the problem rationally, it seemed that there was no need to make up for it again.
"Yes. Objectively they are keeping the bugs at bay."
"This reason is not particularly convincing. Even if we don't help, they will fight for their own territory with the insects."
"Nazwa contains the largest known copper deposit."
Bolu's heart skipped a beat.
"They paid their bills in copper. One-tenth the weight of each piece of equipment in copper."
Polu thought about it in his mind and said: "Dealing with bugs is the obligation of every citizen of the world! We will complete this order quickly with high quality and quantity!"
After saying that, Polu took out a small piece of copper from the drawer, cast a little magic to make a seal, dipped it in some ink, and stamped it on the official document!
"..."
As a well-educated mage and lady, Zhu Yiwei was really speechless when faced with Bolu's smooth operations. She could only look at him with a complicated look, and it took a while to calm down.
"By the way, the tone of your words and your understanding of the situation just now don't look like...it was you at all."
Zhu Yiwei was about to speak but stopped.
"There is nothing new under the sun. I have read a lot of books recently."
Bolu patted a large stack of books next to him.
"It's a pity that I still know too little, and there are some things that I can't think of ahead of time."
His words seemed to mean something.
"That's not it. You guys are squatting on the island and you haven't cared about the outside world at all recently, right?"
"It's nothing to care about. We have no one going out and no one coming in. No one has told us the news yet? Where can I care? I still don't know where the crystal mine and copper mine are. Oh, now I know about the copper mine.
