Chapter 94: The Steam Car Leaving the City

As the leader of the alien slaves in Viscount Lane's domain, Mecator is still very efficient, and the next day he sent someone to inform Murray that the place where the factory was built was arranged.

And also specially arranged a steam car to come over, to take Moli to the site to have a look, and finally finalized whether to build a factory in the selected place.

Murray is naturally very satisfied with Mecato's efficiency and great respect for his own arrangement.

The steam car responsible for picking up Murray and Saria is also driven by a dwarf, originally with the height of a dwarf, it is impossible to drive this kind of steam car made with the height ratio of adult humans, but the little dwarf's legs are connected to a pair of mechanical legs, so that he can easily solve the height problem.

Hop aboard an open-top steam cart and head down the not-so-spacious streets of the lower town.

Salia, who sat in the back seat with Murray, was obviously dissatisfied, both because the seat was uncomfortable and because of the pungent smell of engine oil in the car.

Discovering Sariya's dissatisfaction, Murray reassured him in time, and finally dispelled the idea of the witch killing people and destroying the car.

Then, looking at the little dwarf driving in the front row, he asked, "By the way, where did Mercator find a place to build a factory?"

The little dwarf replied respectfully while driving earnestly: "In the southern suburbs outside the steel capital. ”

"Southern suburbs?" quickly sketched a map of the surrounding area of the Steel City in his mind, and quickly locked on to the southern suburbs outside the city.

Murray was a little surprised and asked, "But isn't there a large plain and wheat field in the southern suburbs, and is there a place where we can build a factory?"

The little dwarf continued, "Yes, the chief has a piece of land to the south of the country, and he has built a small village for us to live in, and the place where the factory is built is next to the small village. ”

Murray lowered his head and thought for a while and asked, "Next to the small village, is there water in the place where the factory was built?"

The little dwarf nodded: "Yes, there is a small river outside the village, and there is a complete road on the other side, which can lead directly to the steel capital." ”

Murray was taken aback: "Oh, on the outskirts of the Iron and Steel City, there is still such a small village?"

The little gnome continued, "Yes, it took the chief a long time to build it, little by little. ”

After a moment's hesitation, he continued: "The fact that the leader can let you build the factory over there shows that the leader trusts you very much. ”

When Sariya heard this, she said disdainfully: "Hmph, what kind of trust, don't you want to use our power to get rid of your current slave status?"

Instead of being angry at Sariya's cynicism, the little dwarf responded very seriously: "Yes, we have always wanted to get rid of the status of slaves, we are all inhabitants of the Western Continent, why should we be inferior? just because we are not human?

Hearing the other party mention the witch, Sariya's face suddenly became gloomy, and her eyes flashed with fierce killing intent.

Fortunately, Mori, who was sitting next to her, found it in time, and reached out to grab Saria's palm to calm her emotions.

The little dwarf driving in the front row continued unconsciously: "We are also residents of the Western Continent, and I think we also have the right to choose our own destiny, don't we?"

Murray nodded and said, "Well, you're right, but if you don't want to be slaves, why do you want to serve the nobles?"

Before the little dwarf could speak, Murray continued, "Besides, I heard that Mercator is the biggest slave owner, can he really bring you the fate you want?"

The little dwarf suddenly said at this time: "Hehehe, it seems that Your Excellency has really been living in the lower city, you don't know what happened to us foreign compatriots in the noble family of the upper city, right?"

Murray nodded nondeniably: "Well, I really don't know, after all, a civilian like me can't afford to use a slave of an alien race." ”

The little dwarf explained, "Actually, although we are now nominally slaves, our leaders have helped us to gain the greatest benefit and respect. ”

"It's as if in the homes of the nobility nowadays, we are treated with the respect we deserve, and we are practically no different from ordinary human servants. ”

"And in some workshops and shops, we are usually just working to make money, and we are no longer the slaves who were simply driven by people. ”

"The most important thing is that the nobles of Viscount Lane no longer dare to beat and scold us, nor do they dare to abuse slaves again. ”

After listening to the little dwarf's words, Murray was really surprised, he didn't expect that the treatment of alien slaves in Viscount Lane was so good.

At this time, Salia, who was sitting next to her, spoke: "These are not surprising, after all, Viscount Lane is a radical industrial party, and he has always been committed to building a society where multi-race peace coexists, so many systems in Viscount Lane are actually different from other places in the empire. ”

Murray suddenly said with some surprise: "I didn't expect that Viscount Lane is still such an enlightened revolutionary?"

Instead, Saria dismissively said, "Yes, he, like you, is ambitious and wants to set off changes and break the rules and systems of the Western continent, but unfortunately, it is difficult to succeed." ”

When Murray heard this, he smiled and said, "Hahaha, in this way, Viscount Lane and I are also heart-to-heart, at least we both have the same goal, maybe we can become partners in cooperation in the future?"

When Saria heard this, she immediately turned into a basin of cold water: "Have you forgotten Uncle Raul's reminder to you last night?"

At the same time, the little dwarf in the front row also spoke at the right time: "The leader once said that Viscount Lane is a very dangerous guy. ”

The so-called three people become tigers, and now so many people think that Viscount Lane is very dangerous, so Murry can't help but believe it, but he is also more curious.

Viscount Lane was implementing a new policy in his own territory, and he had always been a staunch supporter of industrial development, which Westerners regarded as the devil.

But why do so many people think he is dangerous?

Murray faintly felt that things should not be so simple, and there must be something in it that he didn't know.

The steam car drove out of the steel city and slowly along the road outside the city, gradually moving away from the metal and industrial city, and into the fields of the south, where there was no dullness of the steel city and no noise of machinery, where the smell of birds and flowers filled with the smell of nature's fields.

Sitting on the steam car, enjoying the rustic atmosphere in the face, I instantly felt that the whole soul was sublimated.

Murray unconsciously stood up, standing on the steam cart with his arms outstretched, trying to embrace this rare rustic atmosphere.

At this moment, the haze in my heart seemed to be washed away in an instant, and only the fragrance of soil and fields remained in my chest.

Even Saria, who had a straight face all the way, couldn't help but smile when she sat on the steam car at this time and looked at the surrounding wheat fields.
