In the office of the Governor's Palace, Lin Jue relaxed all over, lying quietly on the chair and closing his eyes to recuperate. There was nothing troublesome today, and he seized this time to squint for a while.

Opposite him, Jiang Quan was holding a drawing and studying it carefully, and after a while, he put it down.

"To be honest, the principle of the steam engine is really not difficult, and the drawing you drew is not very standard, but it is barely correct. Just make it according to this, and it can be used. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said, "How is it? Am I a genius?"

Jiang Quan frowned slightly, and said, "But ......"

"Don't do it, praise me. ”

"......"

"Hurry up, don't ink, I'm a scumbag who has studied this steam engine well, but what, hurry up, come and praise this genius. Lin Jue raised his hands high, with a look of intoxication, and said.

"I want to say ......"

"Don't say so much about what you don't have, just praise me!"

Jiang Quan shrugged helplessly and said, "You listen to me first, what I want to say is that the drawings are right, but there is no need at all." ”

Lin Jue was puzzled: "What is the meaning of unnecessary? What is this? It is a steam engine! As long as this is built, the founders of the industrial revolution in this world in the future will be the self-cultivation of the two of us, the traversers." ”

Jiang Quan smiled bitterly: "I mean the self-cultivation of the traverser, you came to this other world with magic, why don't you go to study magic technology, but get a copy of the steam engine?"

Lin Jue was about to say something, but was hurriedly interrupted by Jiang Quan: "I know what you want to say, Magic Guiding Technology, with the ability of the two of us, it is impossible to do it in ten or eight years, and in the end, it may be as popular as a steam engine, in fact, what I want to say is that the drawings of this steam engine are really completely unnecessary." ”

Lin Jue was dissatisfied: "What do you mean that it is unnecessary? I have worked hard to draw for more than ten nights, and every night I soak here, how many pieces of paper and pencils have been wasted...... Uh, charcoal, how many brain cells did it kill me, it's the fruit of my labor, how can you say it's not necessary?"

Jiang Quan shrugged his shoulders, stared at Lin Jue with a mocking expression, and said with a smile: "It's so hard for you, but it's really unnecessary, because there are already steam engines in this world." ”

"What?" Lin Jue was stunned, his expression was embarrassed, and he hurriedly asked: "What the hell? Where did the steam engine come from? I have been in this world for so long, I have never heard of a steam engine. ”

"Look, it's lonely and unheard, isn't it?" Jiang Quan waved his hand and said, "Let me ask you first, well, a historical question, what was the purpose of the steam engine when it was first manufactured and used?"

Lin Jue thought for a while and replied, "I remember that it was used for pumping water in the mining area, because it is very difficult to drain water under the pit, it seems to be so?"

Jiang Quan nodded and said, "That's right, in fact, I haven't seen this thing in the classics of human beings in this world, but can you believe it? Fortunately, they are only used for pumping water in mining areas, and not for the development of industrial manufacturing. ”

"You're not kidding me, are you?, but how do you know about this?" Lin Jue wondered.

Jiang Quan smiled: "I only found out about it recently. A few days ago, I was chatting with a staff member of the Dwarven Liaison Agency, and we were chatting at the bar, and we were discussing how to solve the problem of drinking water nearby in Phoenix, after all, we need to go to the nearby river to call for drinking water now, although it is not far away, but it is always troublesome. ”

"At that time, I proposed to build an underground water supply system, but I drank too much at that time, and I didn't consider the feasibility of this matter. But it was the dwarf, and he made the suggestion, that it was to dig a well. So I joked with him, if the water table is low, what's the use of digging a well?"

As a result, he told him about the steam engines that the dwarves used to pump water from the mines. Actually, I reacted like you at the time, and I didn't think it was possible at all. But the fact is there, the dwarves have huge dungeons, and if there is no steam engine to pump water, if the water table is dug up, then the dungeon will become a water city. ”

Lin Jue thought for a while and said, "In other words, at present, as long as we copy their steam engine technology and improve it, we can develop industry?"

Jiang Quan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yes, that's it." That's why I said, the steam engine drawings you worked so hard to get are completely useless. If you're drawing a steam engine that can be used directly in industry, I didn't say that, but you're drawing a running model, okay?"

Lin Jue had a dark face, looking at Jiang Quan, who was laughing non-stop, and felt very uncomfortable.

After more than ten nights of hard work in painting a steam engine, she finally drew a prototype that could be run, and as a result, there was already a stable finished product in this world.

It's like you worked hard to write an essay, and after a few years of looking back, you suddenly found that there is an essay with almost exactly the same content and plot as yours, and as a result, this essay is popular, and yours is still unknown.

The most excessive thing is that there is a bad friend on the other side who is ruthlessly laughing at you about this matter, looking at Jiang Quan's current face, Lin Jue began to regret that he should not have asked Mo Zun to let him go in the first place.

At this time, Bi Fang came to the governor's office, he glanced at Jiang Quan, Jiang Quan smiled and said, "In this way, you talk, I suddenly remembered something and wanted to go to the dock to have a look." ”

Lin Jue took the tea in front of him, snorted coldly, and said, "Don't send it if you go slowly." ”

After Jiang Quan left, Bi Fang spoke: "Your Excellency the Governor, she is awake." ”

Lin Jue's body stiffened for a moment, he understood what Bi Fang was talking about, and breathed a sigh of relief gently. Although he understood that this matter was not simple, with the existing information, he could not analyze what had happened.

He was convinced that this incident had something to do with the attack on the human colony for no apparent reason, but the information provided by the hammer was shrouded in a lot of mystery, and he had to get more information from the elven girl's mouth.

He quietly put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Let's go, go and see." ”

Not far from the Governor's Palace, a towering tree grows at a speed visible to the naked eye every day, and the immigrants who pass by almost always stop for a few seconds to see this magical scene, sigh with emotion, and then leave.

Lin Jue is no exception, as the head of the immigration, he planted this tree with his will, and the process of its growth is like the growth of his own children. In the future, it will definitely become one of the landmarks of Phoenix, so he will naturally stop and take a second look.

He has been here more than once at the medical clinic near the barracks, and this time he came here, but he is also familiar with the road. As a translator, Lin Yue naturally followed him quietly and didn't say a word.

Entering the medical hall, the doctor hurriedly came over to salute after seeing it, but was stopped by Lin Jue. The dwarf hammer who had been lying on the bed for a long time, just like seeing an old friend who had not seen him for many years, waved his movable hands to say hello, and kept muttering in his mouth, but Lin Jue didn't understand it at all, and just smiled politely.

Next to him, the elf messenger was looking around with a confused face, the elf girl who had woken up, her face was no longer pale and terrifying, she looked like she had recovered a lot, her cheeks were ruddy, her big eyes were shining, she was tilting her head to observe Lin Jue and the others, beautiful and incomprehensible.

At this time, Lin Yue pulled Lin Jue behind him, Lin Jue turned around, and asked suspiciously: "Yue'er, what's wrong?"

Lin Yue whispered: "The dwarf named Iron Hammer just now, he said, this elf messenger, she has lost her memory. ”
