Take the steward to the blast furnace of Iron Valley, and immediately let it manage the blacksmiths. Under the auspices of the steward, a new furnace of ore was thrown in. This time, we completely ignored them, and we wanted to know if this steward could smelt these ores.

Although we had full confidence in the steward, in the end it still let us down, it was simply blind command, if we hadn't watched from the sidelines, and removed its management function in time, I think our furnace ore would not only be completely scrapped, but also that the blast furnace would have blown it up.

In the end, the ore was salvaged by us, but its conversion rate was less than 7%. Liu Zi looked at the poor metal and couldn't help but say to me, "Dragon, this won't work!" Although this butler understands human nature better than other NPCs, his ability is still in a state of chaos at all! ”

"Sister Liu, it's me who is too impatient, I can't imagine that the third-order housekeeper is so bad. It seems that this smelting matter has to be presided over by the player. Sister Liu, this matter will be handed over to you, and I no longer object to letting players join our smelting. It's just that I have a premise that those players can only do management things, and all other things must be done by those NPCs. And this housekeeper, I can't be removed, I have to let it continue to exercise here. I said to Liu Zi.

Liu Zi had no problem with my suggestion, she immediately found a master to come over, and we immediately started the smelting work again. When we reached the 7th furnace, the blue war found me.

"Dragon, come and take a look, how about this picture?" As soon as Lan Zhan saw me, he immediately said to me.

"Lan Zhan, you've already made the blueprints of the Iron Valley!" When Liu Zi and I heard this, we hurriedly ran over.

The map that appears in front of us is a miniature map of the mega city in Iron Valley a few years later, which not only shows all kinds of buildings, but also those buildings are very detailed and small, if we don't know that Iron Valley doesn't have these things, we really think that Iron Valley is like this?

"Let's divide this iron valley into several large areas, this is the iron mining area, and here, it will be the manufacturing area of other craftsmen,......" Lan Zhan opened the map, pointed to the buildings sitting on it, and told us. While listening to Lan Zhan's explanation, we looked at the three-dimensional map with relish.

"Lan Zhan, the people who made this map are really good, and the best thing is that it can determine what kind of functional buildings are needed in the Iron Valley based on the situation around this Iron Valley. You see, this blast furnace area is completely built in the best air extraction area, and according to their design, this area can be built on the maximum number of blast furnaces. And this blacksmith is also built far away from the yin vein you mentioned, which also eliminates the possibility of destroying that yin vein. "I looked at the map and was overwhelmed.

"Of course, this is the crystallization of hundreds of people working for several days and nights in a row! Dragon! It's not easy to make this thing! Hundreds of us started working together, and it took us three days and three nights. Lan Zhan Yifu said so.

"That's right, it only takes such a short time to make such a good work, Lan Zhan, which design company are you looking for, I think, the company that can produce such a high level of work must be a well-known design company in the industry." I nodded.

"It's not important, now let's build this iron valley step by step, hey! To tell you the truth, I really want to see this Iron Valley built. Lan Zhan said with some excitement.

"Let's call the dragon-hunting people to come over, so that they can also share the prosperity of this iron valley in the future." I said to the Blues.

"Of course." Lan Zhan said.

Not long after, everyone came, and they were very surprised and happy when they saw what this iron valley would look like after it. They surrounded the Iron Valley, constantly observing everything in the Iron Valley from all angles. And what they say the most is the sigh of stains.

Suddenly, the system came with the sound of my phone, and when I saw it, it was my father's, so I quickly confessed and quit the game.

"Dad, how's Mom?" I asked.

"Boy, I'll tell you good news, your mother's illness has improved a lot, and she has been awake for a very long time now." Dad was very happy.

"Really? Did the doctor say we could see her? I said anxiously.

"Not yet, but I think it should be soon." Dad said.

"How long will we wait?" I couldn't wait to ask.

"I know there! It all depends on what the doctor says. Now the hospital has transferred us to a villa with a view of the sea. Here, as soon as we look up, we can see the sea, and the doctor said that it will help your mother's recovery. Dad said.

"The environment should be nice there, are you used to it?" I asked.

"It's good here, it's just a little too quiet. In this place, no one else can be there except me and your mother, the doctors and nurses. They say that in this way, your mother will not be affected by the conditions of the outside world. Dad said.

"As long as it helps mom's illness." I said.

"I also think this place is good, every day when I see the sea, I feel open, your mother is here, and she recovers quickly. It's just that it's too expensive here, and even the treatment fee adds up, and it costs tens of thousands of yuan a day. Dad said with some uneasiness.

"Dad, money is not a problem, my sister has so much money, if she needs it, just let her send the money over." I said.

"It's not good to always trouble your sister, your sister has already sent a lot of money. I think, she is a girl's family, even if she is rich, she doesn't have so much! She must have been afraid that we would be worried, so she borrowed money from their colleague and sent it to us. Dad said.

"Dad, don't worry about your sister, it's her ability to borrow money!" I said nonchalantly.

"You stinky boy, how can you say that? I really raised you for nothing. Dad said a little angrily.

After a while, my father calmed down and said to me, "Son, you're going to graduate next year." ”

"Yes! Dad, did you help me find a good job? I feigned surprise.

"Well, not yet, son, I want to discuss something with you." When Dad said this, he started to get a little stumbling.

"Dad, what's the matter! Did you let me watch my mother from afar! I said quickly.

"No, I was wondering, can you not devote all your time to studying......" Dad said with some writ.

"Ahh I cried out in surprise, even though I heard that my dad became president of the United States, I was not as surprised as I am now. It's strange that such words should come out of the mouth of my father, who has always put his studies first.

"Son, I mean, you also have to share some of your mother's illness, we can't always reach out to your sister." Father seemed to pluck up his courage to speak.

I had mixed feelings for a moment and didn't know what to say. My father continued: "When I was in the hospital, I heard a lot of people talk about the game "Taimeng", and they all said that inside this game, it seems to be real, and in it, you can make a lot of money just like outside. ”

"Dad, you mean let me play the game?" Once again, I felt extremely surprised that my father, who was very opposed to me playing games, wanted me to play games! Isn't this my old-fashioned, gracious father?

"I've asked a lot of people that playing this game, if it's handled well, won't affect learning. Because the time ratio of this game is 3:1, that is, one hour in reality is equivalent to three hours in the game. I've already borrowed someone else's helmet to play this game, and it's really realistic inside, and besides, I've been in it for half an hour, and it's only been ten minutes outside. You just have to go inside and play games every day when you finish reviewing your homework. If you spend 2 hours a day, you'll be able to play the game for 6 hours. Dad said.

I can't imagine that my father, who is very rejective of these things, would borrow someone else's helmet to experience the feeling of this game. Sister! How would you feel if you knew that your father loved you and would do such a thing in order not to embarrass you?

"Dad, what district are you in! What's the name? I really wanted to see my father in the game, so I couldn't wait to ask.

"Son, I'm in the North District, my game name, the system taught me not to take my real name, so I took the name Yunlongmeng." Dad said.

"Cloud Dragon Dream! It sounds very poetic, but I know that my father took this name, and it had nothing to do with poetry, he just took the names of my mother, me, and my sister, and made up one such name.

"Son, I'll send you money to buy a helmet later." Father said.

"Dad, I already have one." I said quickly.

"Boy, you've been playing this game all morning! No wonder you're not good at studying. The father was furious.

"Dad, no! I was a classmate of mine, and he was going to change to a senior one, and the old one was gone. Because I helped him, he gave me the old one. I haven't dared to go up and play since I got it......," I said quickly.

"It's strange that you didn't play, no wonder you want me to send you more living expenses, it turns out that you want to save money to buy that helmet! This time, for your mother's sake, I'll spare you. Tell me your name quickly, and if you have any difficulties in the future, come to me. Father said.

"Dad, I'll tell you when the time comes." I said.

"Son, although I let you play the game, you can't kill monsters and level up like others in the game, you have to learn to strike iron, listen to others, this blacksmith is the most popular, and the things that come out can be sold for money." Father said.

"Dad, do you practice iron?" I asked.

"Yes! I studied with Uncle Niu in the village. As long as your mom is asleep, I'll go in. But it's a pity that Second Uncle Niu just asked me to mine and didn't teach me any techniques, but he also collected the ore that was dug up. Son, I'm in there, but I've already earned thirty silver coins? Father said with some pride.

"Dad, you still have to concentrate on taking care of Mom, I'll just be alone about playing games." My heart was a little heavy, I knew that the ore that a novice could dig out was not worth much, and my father could get more than 30 silver coins by selling the ore, which was already very good, and I thought he must have run to mine, and when his body could not bear the load, he would run back and sell. Although this is just a game, and LX has also stated that they do the most intense exercise in the game, and it is also under the load of the human heart, but my father is not too young, if something happens, then what should I do?

"How's that going to work? What you think is just studying, you can only play in your spare time. I've already done it, and when my blacksmithing skills improve, we'll open a blacksmith shop. Although there are many people in this blacksmith shop, we father and son can bear hardships and stand hard work, we can ......" My father was talking about his ideas there, but I couldn't listen to it anymore, I interrupted him and said: "Dad, wait a minute, my sister has given me news on the Internet again." ”

It was a long time before I called my father back, and I said, "Dad, I've told my sister about you going into the game as a blacksmith." ”

"What did she say?" My father was very nervous.

"My sister she cried, she said that she resented herself, in fact, she still has a lot of money on her, because of her own selfishness, so she didn't send it all to us, so it caused Dad you want to make money by playing games. She had already sent us all the money. I said in a low voice.

"Silly child, how can she be so stupid! She actually sent us all her money, so what would she do! Yes! This is 30 million, how can so much money be sent to us? Son, you quickly ask her bank account number, we can't spend so much money, we have to send the excess back to her. Dad said very panicked and sad.

"Dad, is it really 30 million? How could my sister have so much money? Dad, my sister is gone, she still has so much private money, let's ignore her, send me 1 million, your son is going to die poor. "I heard my father say 30 million, and immediately said loudly.

"You bastard, listen to me, your game helmet, send me back immediately. Also, this semester, if your grades are just passing, I'll break your legs! "My father was very angry at my behavior and he shouted at me.

I listened to my father's roar, but I was in a very happy mood! Hey! With these 30 million, my father shouldn't be so desperate to play that game! Finally, my father hung up the phone angrily.

Returning to the game, Lan Zhan asked me, "Dragon, you guy, why did you go down for so long!" ”

"I went down and took the phone." I said in a very happy mood.

"Look at your beaming face, isn't it a good thing!" Lan Zhan asked.

"This is what you guessed, my mother's body is expected to fully recover, and I just went down to talk about this problem." I said.

Xunlong's body moved, and she asked me a little nervously, "Brother, is our mother's health not good?" ”

"Sister, there's nothing wrong, it's just a little problem." I said lightly, and then said to her, "Sister, let me tell you the news, Daddy is going to play this game, and he is still in our district. I'll take you to see him in the future, and if he sees that he has another daughter, he will be very happy. ”

Speaking of this, I suddenly felt a touch in my heart, I looked the dragon up and down, and finally shook my head.

"Brother, what are you looking at?" Xunlong couldn't help but panic a little when she saw me suddenly looking her up and down, and she thought to herself, "Has he seen something coming?" ”

"Ahh Nothing. I quickly looked away.

I don't know, after Xunlong listened to my words, she secretly exhaled, she patted her heart, and thought to herself: "It's really dangerous!" Xunlong put down a big stone in her heart, but she never dared to ask me about my father again.

When I went down, Lan Zhan had already explained Tiegu to them again, so I said directly to them: "Everyone, everyone has clearly seen the future of Tiegu. As you can see, the future of this Iron Valley will be a super-large city, and its builders are us. We should be proud that we were able to build it! ”

My words made the blood boil of everyone who was already eager to try, they were rubbing their palms and shoulders, and they looked at me with only one meaning, what do you want us to do, give orders!

"Old pig! The foundation of Iron Valley lies in the production of weapons and equipment, so this ore is very important, if we open a rich mine near it, it will make the economy of Iron Valley take off even more! This is a detailed information on the closest vein to the Iron Valley, you take it and look at it, and then you immediately go there to reclaim it, and in a while, there will be more than 6,000 miners to help you develop it. I said.

"Order!" The old pig took a stack of materials from my hand and went happily.

"Wulei, don't you really want to do things? Now there's one thing for you to do. I said to the thunderbolt who had been watching me pitifully from the side.

"Second brother, what's the matter!" When Wulei heard me call his name, he immediately became energetic.

"Wulei, our next step is to auction 30 pieces of construction land for the ironsmith, we are going to do it in the Iron Valley, you go to find some people, right here, that is, the location of the future auction hall, clear out a large area, and then set up an auction table there. Are you willing to do this task? I asked Wulei and said.

"Good! That's what I'm going to do. Wulei said. He looked left and right, and finally he said to the Phantom, "Phantom, I'll lend you a few people, you don't have an opinion!" ”

"Whoever you like, you can pull whoever you like, everyone wants to do some work for Iron Valley, and they won't have any opinions." The Phantom said.

"Okay, then you're welcome." He counted 50 people in a row, and then walked away.

"Dragon, the current situation in Iron Valley seems to be very unfavorable for our auction!" Lan Zhan looked at Wu Lei and called his relatives and friends, and said to me with a frown.

"Lan Zhan, I know you're talking about those ironworks left behind by the Jiangshan League, with their existence, our auction doesn't seem to be very attractive, but no matter what, there will always be some players with a long-term vision who know the value of this Iron Valley! As long as we can buy some land, we will have the first pot of gold. What we lack most now is start-up capital! I said helplessly.

Lan Zhan shook his head helplessly, and said nothing, and I turned to the phantom and said, "When the auction is held, it's up to you to maintain the order. ”

The Phantom nodded and said, "There's no problem with this, the guys I brought with me usually like to fight the most, and they are very handy at maintaining law and order." ”

There was nothing else to do for the time being, and the Phantom and Cairo went to help clear the land, and Xun Long and Lan Zhan stayed. Lan Zhan looked at the blast furnace that was being smelted and asked us, "Dragon, is this blast furnace like this?" Is it efficient? ”

"Not to mention, our normal smelting, only about 15% of the conversion rate each time, if according to this efficiency, counting the loss of things, even if we don't count labor at all, the metal we refine will be 3-5 times that of the system's metal. At such a price, in the game, there is no market at all. If we can't improve the conversion rate of this metal, we want to monopolize this raw material, which is just delusional. I shook my head.

"Dragon, come and see this, this is what they gave us when I was looking for someone to design the blueprint of this Iron Valley." Lan Zhan handed me a stack of papers.

I took the papers, and found that they were all drawings and a lot of illustrative things. If you look at it carefully, it is a new type of blast furnace.

"Dragon, this blast furnace is 50% more efficient than the blast furnace that Tiegu is using now, and if we use this blast furnace, the conversion rate of the metal will definitely be improved." Lan Zhan said.

"Lan Zhan, can this outside thing also be moved in like this?" I asked, a little strangely.

"Of course not, you know, although this game is very similar to reality, this game still has its own set. We want to bring something from our reality into the game, and even if it's designed to make perfect sense, it still has to be practiced to make it work in the game. Lan Zhan said.

"Then let's send someone to make it immediately!" I said quickly.

"Dragon, this thing is very complicated, and it was built with a blast furnace, and if we want to test it, we have to build a new blast furnace." Lan Zhan stopped me and said.

"There's no problem with this, let's leave this matter to Liu Zi!" I said.
