Chapter Seventy-One: The Perfect Replacement
Sherlock, spurred on by money, moved extremely quickly, and it didn't take long to get all the permissions. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
So not far outside the Emerald City, a large piece of land was encircled, and a house was built in the eyes of others as if they were fools.
And Sherlock, the nominal owner of this land, was secretly used by the nobles as a talking point in his spare time, and actually bought a large piece of wasteland, and whimsically wanted to do iron ore business?
Although he didn't know which one Sherlock had recently supported, he suddenly trembled, but seeing him lose a lot of money was undoubtedly a joy for many nobles.
Even in the dark minds of these aristocrats, it would be best if Sherlock fell because of the business that this "hot head" had made.... Maybe I'll be able to get on top because of this...
.......
Now, the stupid hat Sherlock in the eyes of the other nobles was dancing to recommend something to Li Fan that he was extremely interested in.
Dinosaurs.
The reason for this is that Sherlock, a self-proclaimed "loyal and capable" servant, finds that his "great and wise" master actually rides the rattan chair carried by two people every day, but does not have a mount that matches his identity, and he cannot help but feel that this is his own dereliction.
So, in order to get a lot of money from this master again, Sherlock tried his best to persuade Li Fan to buy a high-end and high-grade mount.
Unexpectedly, it was in Li Fan's arms, originally Li Fan was still worried about the long distance between Sheep Village and Emerald City, but now if he has a mount, the time to hurry will undoubtedly be much faster.
It's just that I didn't expect that Sherlock's recommendation was actually a dinosaur!
This kind of Draco mount can also be sold?
Unexpectedly, Sherlock quietly said that these dinosaur beasts were sold privately by the city lord Rumba, as long as you give money, there is nothing that Rumba can't sell!
So Li Fan naturally used 100 purple dinars to buy 25 derror******ists who were said to be "old, weak, sick and disabled" and "retired" and gave them to Liu Han and Lin Hai, and asked them to quickly return to the base with the dinosaurs, and bring the trained personnel and construction team in batches.
These dinosaurs travel extremely fast, and when the food supply is sufficient, it is not a problem to travel one or two hundred kilometers a day, which means that it takes about ten days at most to travel back and forth to Yang Village, which greatly saves time.
Now, everything is ready and only the east wind is owed!
......................
Li Fan was dressed in the aristocratic clothes common in the Emerald City, and walked leisurely around the east and upper districts of the Emerald City accompanied by the Sherlock butler.
Originally, Sherlock wanted to accompany him personally, but considering that Li Fan's identity was not exposed, he could only send a second housekeeper who did not go out in the house all year round to accompany him.
As a "big city" with a population of just over 30,000, the actual scale is only equivalent to a small town in China, so its core commercial street is only the size of a pedestrian street.
Such a place is called a "district", and Li Fan really thinks it is ridiculous.
Li Fan walked out of a shop selling fabrics again and shook his head in disappointment.
The material of the hot air balloon or airship is still relatively harsh compared to ancient times, first of all, the strength must be high, and secondly, the sealing must be good, if it is a cloth with excellent air permeability like silk, it will definitely not work.
The fabric in the Emerald City is very simple, even the level of daily wear of the ancient working people in our country, and the most luxurious and popular among the nobles is a kind of silk of very poor quality.
How could these possibly be used to make airships?
The second housekeeper looked at Li Fan's tightly knit brows and asked cautiously
"My lord, I don't know what you want to buy? The villain doesn't dare to say anything else, but the small shops in this Emerald City are very familiar. ”
Li Fan sighed, and didn't have any hope in his heart, according to the current level of science and technology, it is indeed not easy to make qualified fabrics. But he said it casually
"Look for something that is fire-resistant, lightweight, breathable, and strong. Is there such a thing?"
The second housekeeper lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head
"Yes, my lord!"
Li Fan was stunned, then suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and said in a deep voice
"Take me!"
The two hurried to a small shop, and as soon as they entered the door, the second housekeeper shouted
"Come out, there's a distinguished guest!"
The chubby boss's narrowed eyes swept over Li Fan's white and tender skin and expensive silk scarf, and he already had a plan in his heart, arched his hand, and asked with a smile
"I don't know what the two nobles want to buy? It's not me who blows, the shop has everything!
I can sell, dare to sell, and I will buy what I want to sell. ”
The second housekeeper coughed twice
"Give me a dragon skin!"
The fat boss was stunned
"Dragonskin? ”
After a while, he walked over with a large pale red thin skin and muttered
"Well, it's weird, someone actually wants a dragon skin?"
The second housekeeper held the fire dragon skin and handed it to Li Fan. Whispered in his ear
"My lord, this is a specialty of the Great Star Territory, this fire dragon lives near the volcano, where the temperature is extremely high, so this fire dragon skin is not even afraid of fire.
And it's very light and strong. ”
Li Fan shook the skin and pulled it hard, and it was really very strong.
Under the joy, there are also some doubts
"This skin is so good, why didn't you use it?"
The second butler smiled bitterly twice
"My lord, although this fire dragon skin has many benefits, it also has many disadvantages.
For example, it is difficult to process, many scissors can't even cut this kind of skin, compared to nylon leather, it is not strong enough, compared to athlon leathlon leather, it is not light enough, and the price is high, so it is rarely used.
Everyone buys a small piece of dragon skin, and in winter, it is covered on the surface of a small iron box, and hot charcoal is put inside, so that it is very warm to hold in your arms. ”
Li Fan was stunned for a while, and the words of the second housekeeper had a great impact on him.
Before, his eyes were limited to the resources that existed on the earth, but he didn't realize that now there was an even bigger D4!
A new world means a myriad of new resources, and sometimes there are things that are not available on D4!
But now the first element is to get the airship hot air balloon out as soon as possible, get the machine tool in hand, and then open it!
Li Fan raised his head and asked while holding the fire dragon skin
"How much?"
The fat boss's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile
"Noble, it's cheap, you're the first to ask for so many dragon skins, 10 gold dinars....."
The second housekeeper snorted in a low voice, Li Fan tilted his head and asked in a low voice
"What's wrong?"
"Your Excellency... This price.... This price..."
"Expensive?"
"No, it's too cheap!" the second steward said quickly, "According to the market price, such a large piece of dragon skin costs at least 12 gold dinars, which... 10 is basically a loss!"
Li Fan smiled, "If a businessman loses money on price, then he will definitely double his earnings in other aspects!" This is the nature of a businessman!
Sure enough, the fat boss continued
"But... Noble, if you want to buy this one, it will be ten dinars, and the words you want to buy will not be this price. ”
Li Fan quickly estimated
"Okay, how much you have, how much I want!"
