"Hmm!"

Michael's face turned red all of a sudden, his wide eyes seemed to have a fire about to erupt, and he held his neck for a while before he finally swallowed it, and immediately said to Yabei Mia: "Bring me a beer, add ice!" ”

"Okay." Yabei Mia walked quickly towards the kitchen, perverted spicy is not something that anyone can accept.

"Father, are you alright?" Vivien asked, looking at Michael as she ate the grilled fish, a sly smile on her face.

Michael took the cold beer handed by Yabei Mia, and drank most of the cup in one go, only then did he feel that his hot throat was pressed down, his face was slightly softened, he breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Vivian with some tears and laughter: "You are really a bad father, how can you eat this perverted spicy." ”

Vivien took a big bite of the fish, looked at Michael with a puzzled expression, and said, "Why can't you eat it?" I think perverted spicy is the most delicious spicy level of spicy grilled fish, since I have eaten perverted spicy, I think the other spicy levels are too ordinary, and it tastes completely tasteless. ”

"Alright, then you can eat more, and be careful of the fish bones." Michael shook his head a little helplessly, drank the beer in the quilt in one go, and motioned to Yabei Mia to have another drink, he couldn't eat this perverted and spicy grilled fish, but this cold and delicious beer could have another drink.

When the closing time came at nine o'clock, McGonagall waited two minutes for the guests to finish their food before clearing the room.

Michael looked at McGonagall and said with a smile: "Boss Mai, I heard Dix say that you have a deal you want to do with the City Lord's Mansion, I'll take a look, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

McGonagall smiled and said, "The city lord is here in person, naturally there is no reason to shirk it, if Miss Vivien is not in a hurry to go home, she can eat grilled fish here slowly, and play with Amy and Anna for a while, that would be even better." ”

"Let's talk slowly, I still have half a fish." Vivien said without raising her head, turned over the big fish that had already eaten half of it, and continued to eat.

"You go back today, and then come back tomorrow morning to tidy up." McGonagall turned to look at Abeimia and Sally, and said a few more words to Amy, and took Michael to the room next to the dining room.

A few lights illuminated the empty room, and the small train in the corner was quite eye-catching.

Michael circled around the steam locomotive and said with some surprise: "This is the steam locomotive?" Can you really run like this steel? ”

McGonagall opened the lid of the boiler and added coal to it, saying: "This steam locomotive converts the heat energy of coal combustion into a controllable mechanical energy, and then drives the small train forward by pushing the reciprocating motion of the connecting rod, without any external traction, it can run on its own, and it can drive multiple carriages to run." ”

"All you need is coal?" Michael stepped forward, bent down and picked up a piece of coal, which turned into black powder when he pinched it in his hand, confirming that it was coal.

"At the moment, only coal can be used in steam engines, but if there is a more efficient alternative in the future, it may be able to be used." McGonagall nodded, not saying anything, this is a wizarding world after all, maybe there will be more efficient and cheap energy.

Michael looked at the steam locomotive with interest, "Can you try it?" ”

"Of course, city lord, please get in the car." McGonagall smiled and nodded, lit the boiler, white steam spewed out of the chimney, he climbed onto the locomotive, waited until the barometer reached the threshold, pushed the pusher, and the steam locomotive drove forward.

Michael's eyes lit up as he looked down at the locomotive rolling forward on the tracks, and if the feedback from the Haider team to the steam engine was as empty as an attic in the sky, then sitting on this steam locomotive, he really felt the changes brought by the steam engine.

No animal power, just cheap coal, this big creature made of steel and emitting white fog can carry people forward.

The steam locomotive circled around the room and stopped, and Michael sat on the car for a while before getting off, looked at McGonagall and said, "Boss McT, how is the endurance of your steam locomotive?" How much can you load at one time? ”

"This is a miniature version of the steam locomotive, mainly for demonstration and trial operation, if you want to put into actual operation, the whole needs to be amplified, improve the horsepower of the steam engine, enhance the load capacity, a steam locomotive can weigh more than 100 tons, the specific data still need to wait for the actual steam locomotive to be determined. And the endurance depends on the amount of coal, as long as the supply of coal is sufficient, the train can reach anywhere where the tracks are laid. McGonagall looked at Michael and said with a serious expression.

Michael reached out and tapped lightly on the train, was silent for a while, looked at McGonagall and smiled, "Let's make an appointment with Hill, let's talk about cooperation." ”

"Okay." McGonagall also had a smile on her face, the City Lord's Mansion was a little simpler than he imagined, and with the City Lord's Mansion nodding, McGonagall's choice of third-party collaborators already had the initiative.

……

The Dailan clothing store is still brightly lit at this time.

Mars walked into the room quickly, looked at Gloria who was thinking about something with a piece of silk in her hand, and said, "Miss, all thirty sets of dresses have been booked, each with a unit price of 100,000 copper coins, and all of them can be delivered by the end of the month." There are also a lot of customers who ask about the other two dresses, but according to your requirements, they do not accept reservations, but will be listed in half a month, and it is expected that there will be good sales. ”

"Great, so we'll be able to turn a profit this month, right?" Gloria's eyes lit up, and the tiredness of a busy day seemed to be swept away, and she was also a little excited.

Mars nodded and said: "The president has severed our relationship with the previous loss-making debts, and after deducting the salaries of the finishing warehouse, the tailor master and the clerk, just thirty dresses alone can make a profit of two million copper coins, and half a month later, after the other two dresses are listed, the profit should be between five hundred thousand and one million copper coins." ”

Gloria put down the cloth in her hand and said with a smile: "Today, the president has given me a letter, if we can surpass the blacksmith shop run by Cyril this month, I will get a position on the board of directors of the Aden Chamber of Commerce, and at the same time get more opportunities to run the family business. ”

"The business of that blacksmith shop used to be good, but it has been operating poorly in the past few years, and it has been on the verge of losing money, although it is better than the previous Dailan, but it is basically impossible to surpass the current Dailan in more than 20 days." Mars said confidently.

"Still can't be taken lightly, Cyril will never give up so easily." Gloria shook her head.

……

In the dark night, a team of knights dressed in black quietly entered the city from the north gate, and the leader was covered in black robes.
