As Miss Anne returned to the dining room after researching and screening all the people who had access to the dinner, Da Liang and the Marquis of Whitehead were engaged in a heated argument over the issue of a stake in the steel mill. The lip shots from both sides made the scene extremely hot, but Anne could see that neither of them had the idea of using force, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She was really afraid that during the time she was away, there would be an uncontrollable situation.

When Da Liang negotiated with the Marquis, in order not to snub Brown, Anne and he slowly talked about the construction of the Dock Magic Academy, and proposed to arrange for some Whitehead family and Hu Cong's children to transfer from the empire mainland to the Dock Magic Academy.

If Anne used to imagine the strength of the heroes of the ancient magic era, then during this time, she really saw how far these heroes of the ancient magic era could do things. Even though both she and Robin had the ability to predict ancient heroes ahead of time, they still couldn't keep up with Young Master Liang's actions.

Acquisition of the Wharf School of Magic, creation of the "University Alliance", and now the construction of a steel mill......

What exactly does he want to do?

But no matter what Young Master Liang wanted to do, he must have mastered the cutting-edge magic alchemy technology of the ancient magic era, and since he ran a school, there was absolutely nothing wrong with studying at the Wharf Magic Academy. What's more, the Wharf Magic Academy is gathering the essence of the "University Alliance" and is destined to become a dark horse and go away.

If she had time, Miss Anne would like to go to the Docks Academy of Magic for further study.

The dinner was a bit boring for Brown, who was a good educator, but couldn't see any point behind the quarrel between Da Liang and the Marquis of Whitehead...... I couldn't interject anything, so I could only eat with my head bored.

Miss Anne was at this time to ease Brown's embarrassment and talk about his area of expertise, so Brown and Anne talked to Anne about the teaching plan of the Dock School of Magic for the next period of time.

Da Liang didn't know how a magic academy should run and develop, so he could only give Brown some advice, and then he spared no effort to support him. The Dock Academy of Magic is concerned about whether Da Liang will have enough magicians and other talents to use in the future, so he will do his best to meet some of Brown's requirements.

Now that he has a good platform, Brown is also letting go of his skills and showing his talents.

Within a month, the Wharf Academy of Magic had completed the upgrade of the Intermediate Ministry of Magic and the Advanced Ministry of Magic, and successfully received the establishment of a number of magic alchemy research institutes in the University Alliance, and the professors and students working for the University Alliance were also arranged. The magical atmosphere presented by the Dock Magic Academy is not inferior to that of the Saloyan School of Magic next door, so that the new students of the Dock Magic Academy are in a very good learning environment from the beginning.

Brown is now recruiting assistant teachers of magic in large numbers in preparation for the expansion of the Wharf Academy of Magic next year.

As for Miss Anne's proposal to transfer the children of the Whitehead family to the Wharf School of Magic, Brown was very supportive. Now the educational resources of the Dock Magic Academy are very rich, and what is lacking is teachable students. Someone would like to come to the Wharf Academy of Magic, and Brown couldn't ask for it.

"No problem...... Brown whispered to Anne, "It's not just the children of the Whitehead family, as long as they are willing to come to the Wharf Academy of Magic, we are willing to accept ......"

……

The partnership between the Black Fire Company and the Whitehead family to open a steel mill was not negotiated at a dinner party. Da Liang did not dare to slack off on the future heavy industry base of the Black Fire Company, and he personally negotiated with the Marquis of Whitehead. He also frequently traveled back and forth between the Great Tomb and Saloyan, summoning dwarven rune masters and alchemists to discuss the layout and equipment of the steel plant, especially the design of the large steelmaking rune blast furnace related to the output and quality of a steel plant.

Fortunately, the magic language steel produced by Da Liang does not need too high-end rune language, and the dwarves themselves also have rich technology for large-scale production of steel, so the design of the steel plant is relatively smooth.

In Saroyan, it is impossible to hide that the Black Fire Company wants to build a steel plant, not to mention that the Whitehead family group is already helping to select the site and contact the procurement of steelmaking equipment. Although the Council of Marcellus was unaware of the existence of special metals, the appearance of a steel mill with a strong imperial background in Saroyan was definitely not a good thing.

Moreover, news came from Frominck that the empire had a plan to build an independent navy in recent years, including ten battleships, nearly 100 new ironclad ships of various types, with a total displacement estimated to exceed 600,000 tons, so this steel plant was probably prepared for this plan.

It's a huge business of billions of gold pounds.

The largest steel mill in Marcellus, the Rookes Steel Plant, has secretly increased production for the orders of this naval fleet, and the shipyards of the Rookes consortium are also actively designing new warships, ready to provide one-stop services for the Flominck Empire.

The empire did not have a decent steel mill in Marcellus, and the steel purchased from the mainland for shipbuilding was shipped to Saroyan, and the freight alone was not a small amount. The cost of building a new fleet is estimated to have been saved by the Empire through gritted teeth, and it has the luxury of using railways to transport it across more than a thousand kilometers. And some of the things that are shipbuilding are not capable of being transported by rail......

The other is the construction of battleships, the few existing warships in the empire are bought, and the battleships designed by the empire are all on the drawings. Tens of thousands of tons of battleships were not for Imperial ship designers, and Rookes Shipyard had a lot of experience in building ships.

If the Frominck Empire does not want to buy warships from foreign countries, then the Rookes consortium is its best and only option.

Now the Empire wants to build a steel mill in Saroyan, and it is clear that it does not intend to use the steel from the Rookes Steelworks. How could the fat that reached his mouth make him fly away? The Rookes consortium demanded that the Marcellus Council take care of the matter "properly".

"A bunch of guys who want money and don't want their lives." Speaker Peters was extremely dissatisfied with the Rookes consortium at this point, and he was extremely dissatisfied with all the capitalists who only had money in their eyes.

The construction of this fleet by the Flominque Empire did not do Marcellus any good. In the event of a major event in Marcellus, this new heavy firepower fleet will be able to block the way of support from the eastern states from the sea. Under the cover of naval artillery, the parliamentary army had to pay even greater sacrifices to capture Saroyan, and then did not have the strength and energy to stop Frominket** from coming from the mainland.

But these capitalists don't care about these things, they think that raising the parliament is to let the parliamentarians deal with these troubles, they just make money.
