In less than half an hour, the sound of cars could be heard from the forecourt of the castle.

Akalande came.

The legendary mid-level mechanic had a red face, his eyes were full of anticipation, and he entered the living room and said loudly: "Rennes, I heard that you have something to do with me, and I can't even take care of the latest motorcycle test, how about it, it's enough to give you face, right?"

Wren laughed, "Please take a seat." ”

He had worked with Akalande a few times and had a good time, and they knew each other well, so they spoke more casually.

When the maid brought the tea, Akaran took a few sips to quench his thirst, shook his head and said, "You are a real big man now, and it is difficult for many people to see you." ”

"You can come to me at any time. Wren shrugged.

"What's the use of coming?" said Akaland, looking helpless, "how much time do you have in the castle as Earl of Glamorgan?" ”

"Thank you. Wren was reserved and accepted the other party's congratulations.

Akalande looked at him very calmly, and couldn't help but sigh: "The restoration of the dragonborn of Congatro has reached the Empire, and in the past two months, the Imperial Council has quarreled about sending wizards without the approval of the Archons. Now that I heard that you were canonized as a duke by His Majesty the Dragonborn, the quarrel is even worse, and I don't know how many people envy you......"

"Tsk!"

"This is a duke, although the title is not as noble as the duke of the empire, but there is a huge fief with millions of people, even I am red-eyed. ”

Akaland's face yearned, and the only way to get such a big fief in the empire was to promote the Holy Soul Wizard and enter the Supreme Council.

Even if other transcendents are promoted to level 20 or above, they are not eligible to be knighted.

The empire is the empire of wizards, not the transcendent.

Wren heard the deep meaning of Akalande's words, in fact, he was reminding himself to be careful of the dark arrow.

He already knew about the quarrels in the Imperial Diet, there was nothing to worry about, these things were handled by the teacher. The wizard of Wezeland had traveled to Congartro in his personal capacity, and now that it was a foregone conclusion, there was no point in arguing among the councillors.

Behind these disputes, there are nothing more than small actions by the other two factions.

They don't want to see the Floating City of Wezeland profit from Congatro, settle the huge debt problem, and ease the teacher's passivity in the High Council.

"If anyone thinks they have any doubts, just come to me. Wren sneered.

"Hahaha......" Akalande laughed, "those councillors are just lackeys at the feet of the real bigwigs, and they won't dare to appear in front of you if they give them a hundred more dares, unless they think their heads are harder than Marke's." ”

The decisive battle outside Kingsland also reached the Empire.

No one could see that Wren was using the real Thor's hammer, but anyone with a little insight knew very well that Wren's strength was already at the peak of the legend, looking at the entire empire, unless it was a Holy Soul Wizard or a Holy Rank transcendent, there were few people who could catch Wren's hammer.

Wren didn't mention the Kangatro again, but asked about the motorcycle factory.

The two worked together to build a motorcycle factory, and except for the day when the first car rolled off the assembly line, Wren never went there again, and left it all to Akalande to manage, completely becoming the shopkeeper.

When it came to motorcycles, Akaland's emotions were immediately high.

He devoted all his energy to motorcycles for more than a year, and had already improved to a third new car, and at the same time did not forget to increase production lines, increase sales, and set up branches in all the major cities of the empire under the name of the mechanical union.

Now there are more than a dozen motorcycle factories, and the total production capacity reaches 1,000 units per day.

Sales are also very hot.

Because the price is cheap enough, less than one-tenth of the price of a car, and it is easy to use, many urban residents and even rural civilians can afford it, and it has always been in short supply.

Almost every car was snatched away by someone waving a banknote as soon as it left the factory.

Nowadays, in the big cities and suburban villages and towns of the empire, you can see white smoke motorcycles galloping through the streets and alleys, leaving a series of roaring sounds.

The mechanical union also sees the prospect of motorcycles, which will be one of the most profitable projects.

Akalande has decided to continue investing and increasing production capacity, aiming to produce 5,000 motorcycles a day within three years, and sell them to countries outside the empire.

As a result, motorcycle factories not only cannot recover their costs in the early stage, but also have to invest more money.

Speaking of which, Akaland was a little embarrassed.

He once told Wren that he would make a profit within a year, but he slapped himself in the face.

The cake of the motorcycle is too big, although he is the vice president of the mechanical trade union, he can't stop the greedy eyes, there are branches in various cities, lords and nobles, and big businessmen in the sales channels within the trade union, and there is even friction for the shares of the motorcycle factory.

Rennes owns 40% of the first plant in Modu.

According to the previous agreement, no matter which city the new branch of the mechanical union is in, as long as it uses the technology of Rennes's steam motorcycles, each branch must give Rennes a 10% share.

This percentage of shares does not seem to be much, and when more and more factories are opened in the future, the value is incalculable.

Wren saw Akaland's predicament and asked, "Someone wants to touch my 10% share?"

"Yes. Akalande nodded silently, "I am not the sole proprietor of the mechanical union, there are several other vice presidents, and the local branches also want to get a piece of the pie, and those new factories you have to take a tenth of what you don't do, many people think it's too high." ”

He thought for a moment and said, "If you give in and reduce the stake to half percent, I can help you fight for it." ”

Wren nodded, he wasn't unreasonable.

Thinking about it from another perspective, Akaland was also uncomfortable being caught in the middle, so he asked, "Do you have any information about the local branches?" ”

"I've always had it with me. Akalande pulled out a thick stack of papers.

Wren took it and flipped through it, and it showed the city locations of the thirteen new factories in the empire, the input costs and the composition of shares, and more than twenty new factories were also in the pipeline. Just looking at the information, even people who don't understand business can see the future prospects and huge market of motorcycles.

Its price is much cheaper than that of a car, but it sells dozens of times more than a car.

After the motorcycle market is fully rolled out, the annual revenue will reach at least 80 million gold dong, plus the follow-up maintenance is also an income, and the annual net profit will exceed 10 million gold dong.

If we can redevelop overseas markets, it is estimated that it can be doubled!

Who wouldn't be blushing with tens of millions of gold shields a year? Not to mention ordinary noble lords, even the Holy Soul Wizard couldn't sit still, and couldn't help but want to intervene and make a profit.

In fact, Wren saw the shadow of the Holy Soul Wizard on the list of shareholders of some new factories.

Many of these people are wizards from the Floating City, or simply members of the wizarding family.

Wren had thought that motorcycles would be very popular and would inevitably have a broad market, but he didn't expect them to be so popular, far beyond his imagination.

The most important thing in this is that the motorcycle burns "ash coal", its calorific value is no less than the gasoline of the previous life, but it is much cheaper than gasoline, almost every household has a large number of reserves, coupled with the mature steam technology of the mechanical union, the steam motorcycle manufactured has excellent performance, so it broke out all of a sudden.

"Rennes, I'm under a lot of pressure. ”

Akaland's face was embarrassed, "Every day, people come to the door to put pressure, forcing me to hide in the factory, and even the elder has asked me a few times, asking me to ask for your opinion as soon as possible." I've been here several times, and Fabian always says you're not there. ”

Wren raised his eyebrows, and the mysterious president couldn't resist the pressure.

"I see. ”

He thought about it for a while and said, "I will definitely not give up that 10% of the shares to others." Wren's words made Akalande's expression change slightly, and just as he was about to open his mouth, Wren waved his hand and said: "But I won't take shares in vain, how much money is invested in the early stage of building a factory, I will contribute according to the proportion of shares." ”

One percent of the shares of all motorcycle factories have an annual income of millions of gold guilders, which is quite a piece of earldom, who is willing to let go?

If Wren is just an ordinary lord, he can't keep his interests, so he can only pinch his nose and admit it.

But he's not.

With Wei Zelan and a Holy Soul Wizard as his backers, the teacher is in good health, and his own strength is also invincible under the Holy Soul, why should he spit out the meat that he ate in his mouth?

What should be mine is mine, no one wants to snatch it, even if the Holy Soul Wizard comes!

Akaland's face changed uncertainly, and he shook his head and said: "This is not a small amount, there are more than thirty factories in total, and you will have to come up with at least two million gold dong for proportional investment, and it will be more than one later, and it is possible to exceed three million gold dong in the end." ”

"Three million gold guilders, huh?" Wren readily agreed, "Okay, I'm out." ”

When he looked through the information of the new factory just now, he had already silently calculated it, and it was almost this amount, and the investment was definitely worth it.

"You can get that much money!"

Akaland was extremely surprised, and Wren said in an understatement tone, as if he was not talking about three million gold guilders, but three hundred gold guilders. Even he himself, who has saved a lot of money for many years and has assets of tens of millions, is a little difficult to come up with so much cash.

"I learned a little bit in Congartro. Wren said lightly.

Akalande immediately understood, and couldn't help but envy: "I'm afraid it's more than a little......"

Wren smiled and said, "I invested so much money, but there is a request. I'm going to set up an audit team to regularly review the motorcycle factory's accounts every six months to make sure my money isn't misappropriated, isn't that too much?"

"Yes. Akarand nodded solemnly.

He also did not dare to guarantee that the accounts of the motorcycle factory would be fine, there would always be people who would take risks, and Wren's audit team happened to be a sharp sword in his hands.

Wren smiled with satisfaction, "I'll have the first money sent to the union tomorrow." ”

He stood up, "Now it's time to talk about me." ”

"What's the matter?"

"You'll find out with me. ”

With doubts, Akaland followed Wren into the teleportation hall of the castle, he was not surprised to see the teleportation array, Wren was always uncertain, and he had already guessed that there was a teleportation array in the castle.

However, Wren did not turn on the teleportation array, but stood by and waited.

Ten seconds later.

The teleportation array shook slightly, all the rune lines lit up, and the void rippled like water, gradually forming a vast energy vortex, and a few minutes later, a tall portal opened in the center of the vortex.

Wren made a gesture of please and led the way inside.

Akalander hurriedly followed, passed through the portal, and found himself in an open courtyard, surrounded by an ancient castle, and looked up to see that it was snowing heavily, and the temperature was very cold, with gusts of wind.

This is the Kingdom of Congatro!

Akalande tightened his clothes and heard a young voice say, "Teacher." ”

He followed the prestige and saw a young man with a thin figure and a cold temperament with a hint of evil, not yet twenty years old, saluting Wren.

Wren nodded and replied, "Reslin, you're doing a good job, let's go back to Wezeland first." ”

"Yes, teacher. ”

Leslin turned and entered the portal and vanished.

Akalande watched the portal close, and suddenly realized that this teleportation array was actually arranged by Wren's students, even if it was just splicing together the cast Mithril plates, it also revealed an extremely superb magical talent.

This student named Reslyn has been under Wren for less than half a year, and it is estimated that he is only a beginner wizard, but he has mastered such a profound knowledge of magic.

"You're not an easy student. Akalande was surprised.

He said this freely, because he found that he could not even see through Reslin's strength, as if shrouded in a layer of fog. A legendary middle-level mechanic, but he can't understand a beginner wizard, and he is afraid of being laughed at when he says it.

Wren chuckled, hell if you could see through it.

"Reslyn is my best student and will not be worse than me in the future. The corners of his mouth were raised, and he said with some playfulness.

Akaland was taken aback, he didn't expect Wren to have such a high opinion of Reslin.

You know, how famous Wren is in the empire now, not only breaking the record of Duke Redstone's youngest legendary transcendent, but also his strength is unfathomable.

The defeat of the Legendary Beginner Rank by the Legendary High Rank was not believed by anyone before.

Many people have studied Wren and compared him to the famous heroes of history, and some even believe that Wren is the most outstanding prodigy in human history, stronger than the young Elfa the Great, and on the same level as Duke Redstone and Master Ogulvi, and it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to the Holy Soul in the future.

Although some people feel that this is touting Rennes, it is an exaggeration.

But no one can deny Wren's talent and strength.

Now that Wren said that his student Leslin would be as successful as he was in the future, Akaland was suddenly startled and doubted.

One Wren is amazing enough, if there is another Reslyn, then it will be enough?

"Akaland. ”

Wren called twice, and Akalande came back to his senses and asked, "Where is this in Congartro?"

"Dragonspine Fort. Wren replied.

He opened any door to the castle's tower, and looked down at the entire Dragon's Back City built on top of the hills, which was now covered in heavy snow, and the field of vision was white, not far from the south was the thriving dragon forest, and to the north and east were endless plains.

"I am ready to build the Duchy of Augustus with all my might. ”

Wren pointed to the city below and the land in the distance, and said: "When I say construction, I mean full mechanization, building roads and railways between cities, building schools and factories, upgrading the equipment for mining, and applying machinery wherever machinery can be used, and the production and operation of the entire principality will be powered by steam engines, and this will be a country built on steam engines." ”

"Of course, the most important thing is to build a temple to the goddess and spread the radiance of her wisdom. ”

"This will require a lot of involvement from the mechanical unions, and it is expected that five million gold will be invested in three years, and more in the coming decades. ”

"I'll also provide some design on mechanical products, definitely not much worse than the benefits of motorcycles, this is an opportunity for the mechanical union, what do you think?" Wren asked with a smile.

The more Akaran listened, the brighter his eyes became.

Especially when he heard "full mechanization", his breathing became a little heavier, as if he saw a grand blueprint slowly unfolding in front of him.

Akalande nodded heavily without hesitation, and said loudly: "On behalf of the Mechanical Union, I agree to cooperate with Lord Duke and participate in the construction of the Duchy of Augustus!"
