Chapter 603: The Crazy Merchant (Part II)
Some scientists once said that materials research is the science with no shortcut in the world, it must be constantly tried and explored with a down-to-earth attitude, and there will always be diligence in this field, and there is no so-called genius. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
According to the average education level of the other world, as well as the existing metal smelting ability, even if all the large number of blacksmiths and alchemists are gathered, they may not be able to catch up with the material level of the last century on Earth in a hundred years.
However, for Will, what he said just now gave him a lot of inspiration, especially the idea of adjusting the proportions and adding a variety of metals, as if opening a whole new door.
After bowing his head and pondering for several minutes, he suddenly touched the thick beard on his chin and exclaimed in a low voice: "You are right! When it comes to the study of metal materials, I am like a baby who has just learned to walk. But it doesn't matter, now that I know the secret, I will definitely be able to make up for it in the future. Thank you, thank you for telling me this, otherwise I would never have understood until I died, that there were so many secrets hidden in a small steel ingot. ”
"Hehe, you're welcome, you've helped me a lot, and from a business point of view, we're a typical reciprocal reciprocity. Lu Li smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
As a businessman, he has always believed that only when there is no conflict of interest can two people become true friends.
There is no doubt that he and Will have no conflict of interest, but have many interests in common.
For example, he can provide steel that is sorely lacking in the other world, and Will needs it to craft high-quality weapons and armor and restore his ancestors' status in the blacksmith industry.
In the same way, Lu Li also needs the blacksmith to build something that Earth technology can never do.
In this situation, where both parties need each other, the relationship will naturally become closer and closer.
Hearing the word reciprocity, a smile quickly appeared on Will's face, and he nodded lightly and said, "Okay, I agreed to the first condition.
Rest assured, no matter how important Volcanic Silver is to you, it will never be too valuable on this continent.
The reason is simple, it is simply too abundant.
According to a famous alchemist long ago, there was probably a world of lava flowing beneath the Great Underground, and volcanic silver was evenly distributed within the magma, so much that it rivaled that it was stone.
Later, many alchemists and scholars further confirmed this inference by observing volcanic eruptions on the mainland, and even the smallest volcanic eruptions would bring out dozens of tons of volcanic silver. ”
"You mean, all magma carries a lot of volcanic silver?" Lu Li's eyes widened in surprise.
As someone who knows a little bit about geology, he knows very well that if the above inference is true, then at least three to five percent of the interior of the planet under his feet is made of mysterious rhenium alloys, and absolutely no more, not less.
How much does three to five percent of a planet weigh?
Taking the 60 trillion tons of the earth as an example, 3 percent has 1.8 trillion tons!
It is enough to support all countries on the earth to complete the industrial revolution in the new century, and the world will develop towards the field of controlled nuclear fusion and superconducting electromagnetism in the future.
A lot of things that only exist in concepts will become reality little by little, and the most obvious example of this is maglev vehicles.
"Yes, a lot, so you can rest assured. ”
Although Will didn't know why Lu Li showed such an expression, he still did not hesitate to give an affirmative answer.
"Oh-oh my God!" Lu Li instantly felt like he was stunned by the gold bricks falling from the sky, and it took a while for his excited brain to calm down, and he said with a wry smile: "Okay, I don't think there is any need to discuss the issue of volcanic silver. All you have to do is guarantee to give me more than 10 tons a month. As for the second condition, I would like you to provide a wide variety of ore samples. ”
"Ore samples, okay! I'll tell the mine to send some over there every month. Will agreed without thinking. "Is there anything else? In my opinion, neither of your conditions can be considered conditions at all. ”
Lu Li hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, I want to talk to those businessmen outside, can you please invite them in one by one?"
"Are you sure?" asked Will with a look of incredulity.
If you don't mind, you can lower the price of weapons and armor a little more to make them affordable for more low-level adventurers. With that, Lu Li took out tea and coffee from the cabinet, brewed two pots of boiling water respectively, and then took out sugar cubes, milk and chocolate, and prepared to receive guests.
"They're right, you don't think like a normal person, and you're acting like the weirdest guy I've ever seen in my life......" Will muttered quietly as he stepped out of the house.
Less than two minutes after he walked out, there was a commotion from the crowd gathered outside.
Immediately following the young woman with the proud upper circumference from before, and her plump father, under the gaze of countless pairs of jealous and envious eyes, they became the first guests to be invited.
"Good evening, honorable watchman, my name is Kaduma Langdon, and this is my eldest daughter, Kassandra. I'm so sorry for the rude gesture I just made to you, because we are so excited, this is a small gift, I hope you don't take what just happened to heart. ”
As soon as he stepped into the living room, the fat man, who was overweight, took the initiative to bend down and bow, and at the same time offered both hands a box made entirely of gold and inlaid with at least a hundred gems the size of pigeon's eggs.
"You call this a small gift?" Lu Li pointed to the box and asked with a smile.
Although he didn't know what was in the box for the time being, he dared to bet with his head that the value of the handiwork and jewelry of the box itself alone was definitely more than 40,000 gold pagodas, and it was normal to get it to auction hundreds of millions of dollars on the earth.
As the saying goes, there is nothing to be courteous or a thief, and the first time we met, we gave such a big gift, and the intention must be not small.
Kaduma took out a silk scarf, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and explained with a smile: "Please don't get me wrong, it's really just a small gift, I don't believe you look at my and my daughter's clothes, using gold and jewelry as decorations, it is a very common thing in the Hoyle Empire." What's more, I'm sure you'll love what's in the box. ”
Kassandra, who is known as Kassandra, deliberately straightened her chest when she heard her father mention herself, and she didn't know if she was showing off the four dazzling emeralds on her neckline, or if she wanted to show the pair of "murder weapons" that almost suffocated Lu Li to death......
