The atmosphere of the Winter Festival is getting stronger and stronger in every corner of Saint-Dres-Fess, but in the laboratory at the University of Levant, where Quins does not know the address, there is no atmosphere that the Winter Festival should have at all.
Thomas and the four of them stared intently at the two strange objects in front of them.
There was only a ding sound, and something seemed to be completed in the large square iron box on the left. The four of them looked at each other, and Thomas slowly opened the door of the box. Suddenly, a burst of hot steam poured out from the box. When the steam slowed down,
After slowly dispersing, Ursula, who had been waiting for a long time, took a deep breath and stepped forward, wearing thick gloves, and pulled out an iron plate from the box.
On the iron plate, there are four fluffy, soft, fist-sized brown toasts.
The three of them picked up three of them at the same time, put them in their mouths and ate them. After Ursula took off her gloves, she picked up the bread and ate it regardless of the high temperature of the oven.
call!
"It worked, the oven worked." Ursula said happily. As soon as the bread entered her mouth, she realized that the steam oven they made was successful.
"It's very fluffy and soft. It's much better than bread baked on stoves and stone slabs. I think everyone on the Eastern Continent will go crazy." Thomas said with his mouth full of bread.
"You've said too much. At least those nobles can't be crazy. This is just their daily life." Ursula said calmly.
"Almost, almost." Thomas chuckled.
"Let's take a look at the pressure cooker again, I can't wait." Pamela said excitedly.
Thomas took matters into his own hands and opened the pressure cooker. Looking at the milky white soup in the pot, Thomas seemed to hear his own heartbeat. He took the bowl and spoon from Sander, and Thomas gave each person a bowl.
Five minutes later.
The inside of the pressure cooker was clean and the delicious thick fish soup was cooked to a crispy texture, making the four of them unable to stop drinking it.
Thomas praised without hesitation: "Ursula, your idea is so great. Set a countdown time for each different cooking mode. In this way, as long as you follow the steps, even people who don't know how to cook soup can do it."
Cook a delicious soup."
Ursula smiled and said to Yan Yan, "Since it has been successful, please inform Mr. Baron. I can't wait any longer."
When Quins came to Levamin University for exercise class again, he got this surprising news. Quins originally thought that it would take a few days for the four apprentices to produce results.
After Quines made major achievements in alchemy, he did not hesitate to reward him. After personally trying the oven and pressure cooker, he generously gave four people 3% of the patent shares.
However, this kind of reward seemed to disappoint the four of them, not because the reward was not high, but because it was not what they wanted most.
There are still five days left, which is the last day of this year and the beginning of Winter Church’s Winter Festival. Time is running out, so before then, Quins needs to finish everything that needs to be done.
That night, Quins took the four apprentices, plus the two samples the four tried to make, got on the carriage, and wandered to the manor of the David family.
After receiving the notice, Tankard Daiweide had been waiting for a long time.
"Hahaha, Mr. Dodd, I hope you can surprise me today." Tankard David strode up to Quins.
"I won't let you down." Quins said calmly: "I brought all the samples. I think you will fall in love with them after trying them."
"Hahaha, okay, okay." Tankard Daiweide's eyes flickered as he looked at the iron knot being lifted off the carriage by the fourth apprentice.
The furnishings in the David family manor were as rough as Tankard David himself. After Tankard David ordered his servants to bring a bunch of ingredients, the next step was the performance by Quins' four apprentices.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Quins said: "Viscount David, these four are my apprentices. You should have heard of Ursula Williams. Coming down is Thomas..."
After Quins introduced all four people, he saw that Tankard David was a little confused, and then said: "I have promised to give each of them 3% of the patent shares. If you want to buy the patent shares in their hands, now
Then we can talk.”
Tankard David couldn't help but be a little suspicious of Quins' enthusiastic draft. Could this guy's project be fake?
"Don't doubt it, Ursula may not sell her shares, but the other three, they are all civilians, and they can't wait so long to slowly realize their shares, so it is in their benefit to be safe and secure.
The biggest. Of course, this is just my opinion. If you don’t want to, then forget it.” Quins shrugged.
"No, no, no, no," Tanked David immediately realized that Quins wanted to find a good buyer for the three of them.
"But even if you want to, they have to do it themselves. I won't force them." Quins chuckled: "And they are my apprentices, you can't bully them."
Well, at this point, Tankard David still doesn’t understand what Quins means.
Thomas and the three others on the other side were also confused after hearing what Quins said. How come this trip turned into selling shares.
Thomas's mind was spinning, thinking about the meaning of Quins' words. After a while, seeing Tankard David's unruffled and fierce look, Thomas suddenly understood why Quins suddenly mentioned this matter at this time.
Come.
It is true that the folk customs of the Neo-Ottoman Empire are strong and free, but in the aristocracy, some attributes of the aristocracy are common all over the world. If pressure cookers and steam ovens can really become popular across the country and even the entire Eastern Continent, then the three of them will have a total of 9%
It is completely imaginable how profitable patent stocks can be and how many people can be jealous.
When that time comes, whether the three of them can keep what they have is a matter of two minds. Not to mention the laws of the empire, Thomas has already seen through the cruel truth of this world after going through the previous controversy over the bicycle patent.
He could almost imagine the explicit or covert threats of suppression that followed. From this point of view, Quines had harmed them by giving so many shares to the three of them.
If the money earned is still within a certain range, the empire's laws may be a protective umbrella, but if the interests are huge, the empire's laws are a kaleidoscope that dazzles people's eyes, making people unable to see the truth inside. The weak can only be protected by the empire.
The corrupted law spreads around and eventually becomes delicacies on other people's tables.
After realizing Quines' intentions, Thomas didn't even think about it: "We agree to sell you the patent shares in our hands, Mr. Viscount David. But the specific price, please wait until you finish eating before we discuss it. I think
This is also what Mr. Baron hopes."
Tankard looked at Thomas's neither humble nor arrogant expression, laughed, and said without feeling embarrassed at all: "Good boy, you already know how to take advantage of the situation," then turned to Quins: "Baron Dodd, you have accepted a good apprentice.
How about it? Give me your apprentice."
Quins shrugged and said indifferently: "As long as they are willing."
