Time passed slowly, and everything in the Steel Collar was already on track, and it did not fall into a panic because of the temporary departure of the little dwarf Lord Modo. 【愛↑去△小↓說△網 Qu 】

Or rather, in fact, they have long been accustomed to the days when the little dwarf wanders around outside and does not stay in the territory.

Whether it's the headquarters of the Steel City, the vast underworld, the new harbor city of Gem Island, or even the distant ice fields of Silya, after the little dwarf Modo pointed out the direction of future development, he naturally has a gradually experienced and capable men, each of whom is responsible for a corresponding piece of work.

These territories are like a railroad carriage on the railroad tracks, along the designated route and direction, all the way forward, just during the absence of Modo, one dazzling achievement after another, by the lords of Modo's subordinates.

No matter what kind of results are achieved, the beautiful butler of the Swan Clan will send a corresponding briefing to Lord Modo on the night when the news is confirmed, even if Lord Modo stays every day, in this huge underground cavern that is dark, he still knows the major events of various territories.

Of course, the serious report on the surface hides the sour resentment, which Master Modo can also detect, and at the same time laughing in his heart, it can be regarded as a little interesting spice in the dull days of retreat.

Ten months after the little dwarf Modo's retreat, Modo received news through the Master Crystal that the first phase of the railroad was officially completed in the City of Steel.

If outsiders only look at the first phase of the project, they may have the illusion that the scale is limited, but if they really understand the inside story, they will be surprised by the generosity of these dirt buns in the Black Stone Wasteland, and they will be speechless for a long time.

This so-called first phase of the project is actually a two-way railway track ten miles away from the edge of the Blackstone Wasteland from the Iron City to the border between the Roland Empire and the Orc Empire.

Thousands of miles away, two railway tracks spread out in parallel, not to mention the gravel at the bottom, and the sleepers with large roots, as long as you calculate it slightly, the amount of steel spent at such an astonishing distance is a whole body that makes many human merchants who claim to be powerful tremble.

Compared with the little dwarf Modo's big spending, their little family background can't be called rich.

But even if the little dwarf Modo made such a huge investment, none of the human merchants who were lucky enough to see this kind of horse-drawn railway felt that it was a waste or even a joke for the little dwarf's practice.

On the contrary, after many years of doing business, they discovered at first glance the convenience brought by this horse-drawn railway, as well as the amazing wealth contained in it.

Yes, that's right, in the eyes of these human merchants, it's a river of gold, and although it's a huge investment, the returns are also terrifying.

In their incredulous eyes, four heavy-handed horses pulled such large and terrifying special carriages, and ran at unimaginable speeds on fixed rails, reaching unimaginable speeds of more than twenty yards, which was not much slower than the speed of a war horse's long gallop.

After two hours, these horses were running continuously, and they were also exhausted, but there were stations every 100 miles, which perfectly solved this point.

The station is small in size, but it has all kinds of basic services, and most importantly, it can be used to replace the load-carrying special carriages with new horses, and each special carriage can be used for a short time before speeding forward again.

The journey, which originally took two months, was replaced by a horse-drawn railway, and it is said that the fastest arrival speed between the two drivers would be six days......

The so-called heavy convoy of the human caravan before required at least ten or more vehicles to load so many terrifying supplies, and as for the speed of arrival, it was not to mention it.

In the past few years, the transportation cost of ordinary goods such as grain has been more than several times the value of the goods, and now according to this new mode of transportation, the freight has been reduced by many times.

It's really worth the money no matter how much gold you spend.

The orcs of the Iron Collar also relied on the confidence of the surge in transportation volume to build a huge trading market directly ten miles away from the Blackstone Fort fortress.

In the future, the trade between the land and the steel collar, whether it is buying or selling goods, will be carried out here, and those shrewd steel collar fox financial officers have instantly lowered the purchase price by several percent, and the selling price has increased by nearly half.

But that's it, the human merchants are still very satisfied, because after they have carefully calculated, the total profit of the annual trade with the steel collar will increase considerably, so where can there be any dislike of making too much gold coins, and put forward different opinions.

Even, after these human businessmen tasted the sweetness of the horse-drawn railway, they immediately had other ideas in their hearts, and a large number of large and small chambers of commerce of the Roland Empire united and put forward the same request to the officials of the Roland Empire to build the horse-drawn railway.

After making a request, these stingy chambers of commerce, which usually value every gold coin extremely much, actually told the official of the Roland Empire: In case the empire is short of funds for a while due to huge investment, they are willing to provide all the construction funds, and the empire only needs to let them occupy half of the shares of the entire railway......

The Minister of Industry of the Roland Empire, after receiving this report that was passed to him, his first reaction was that it was not his officials who played a huge joke with him.

However, after repeatedly confirming that it was correct, and figuring out the amazing power of almost half of the country's chambers of commerce uniting, the Minister of Industry immediately had a second reaction, and such a huge matter was not at all something that he could decide as a small Minister of Industry.

So he immediately took this report and asked to see the emperor of the Roland Empire, His Majesty Roland IX.

When Roland IX read the report, he was almost immediately attracted to this kind of horse-drawn railway, and unlike the merchants, who were concerned with profits, he valued more of its powerful ability to transport troops, with which he was able to mobilize his troops along the railway almost ten times faster.

Immediately, the Minister of Works received an order from Roland IX to submit a plan for the construction of the railway.

It is a pity that Roland IX, who was aroused by his ambition, waited for a report that made him extremely disappointed a month later.

The report shows that with the current steel production capacity of the Roland Empire, and the mainstream steel quality, it is simply impossible to manufacture the amazing rails needed to build the railroad.

The only remaining solution was to propose an offer to the Iron Collar to purchase rails, but it was also rejected by the Iron Collar.

The orcs replied that after the completion of the first phase of the horse-drawn railway, they would immediately start the second phase of the railway construction plan; in short, according to the data, there are five phases of the plan, and these crazy orcs plan to build a total of 200,000 miles of railways in the territory of the orc empire, and there are no extra rails to sell for the time being.

After the Minister of Works submitted the report with apprehension, it is said that His Majesty Roland IX did not sleep that night with a long sigh...... Reading, a better reading experience.
