"Little Sartin, you are the little Satin of the French cloakshop!" suddenly called out to the noblewoman of the merchant couple in the crowd to a young man who had just come off the airship and was sitting on the ground panting.

When the young man heard the cry, he came back to his senses, looked at the place where the sound had come from, and saw the merchant and his wife, and immediately got up from the ground, walked briskly, and saluted them, saying, "Good morning, Lord Jon, ma'am!"

"Little Satin, are you from Daliat?" the merchant did not recognize who the young man was, but hindered him from questioning.

"Yes, sit ......" The young man didn't dare to offend the big customer of the store in front of him, and hurriedly answered, when the knowledge answered the time, he didn't understand it for a while, raised his hand and pinched his fingers to calculate, and then said: "It should have been sitting for six days and five nights." ”

"Five days and six nights?" the merchant was stunned and asked urgently, "Did it only take five days and six nights to fly here from Dailyat?"

"It can't be said to be five days and six nights. The young man hurriedly added: "The airship has been lowered twice on the way, and it has been repaired on the ground for two nights, which should be five days and four nights. ”

Hearing this, not only the merchant couple but also the others around them let out an exclamation, because they knew very well that it would take nearly a month to reach the southernmost city of Dailiat by boat from here, even if it was smooth, and it was really incredible that this airship had traveled in only five days, which was so much shortened.

"Are there any dangers you encountered, such as being attacked by a flock of birds?"

"No, there is no danger. The young man shook his head, and when he saw the suspicious expressions on everyone's faces, in order to prove that he was not lying, he immediately pointed to the others and said, "They are also passengers on this trip, so if you don't believe them, ask them." ”

Although the young man swore a gambling curse, everyone was still careful to find someone to ask, and except for a few who were not interested in answering, the others answered the same as the young man.

At this time, the coachman loudly beckoned the passengers who had just come down to get on the bus, and then said to the merchant and others: "Do you want to sit or not, you have made up your mind now, if you don't want to, get on the car and go back, and if you want to, go directly to the boat." ”

Hearing the voice of the coachman, some people who had just gotten off the airship stood up one after another and got on the trailer, and a few of the people who had just arrived in the trailer Although they listened to the words of those people and knew that there was no danger in taking the airship, the common sense of the past still made them have no burden to ride, and they also returned to the trailer, as for the rest of the people were still hesitating.

At this moment, Leo, who had been listening quietly, didn't say anything, walked out of the crowd, and boarded the airship, while the others saw that someone had already made a decision, and they no longer hesitated, and walked up one after another, and soon all boarded the airship.

Although the boat looked shabby from the outside, the interior of the boat was nicely decorated and it was also more spacious than expected.

There were already people waiting there in the cabin, and when they saw a person, they handed out a note in the shape of a ferry ticket, telling the person who came up that the front of the note was the room number, and the back was the precautions when riding, and repeatedly told them to read the precautions on it carefully, otherwise they would not be responsible for the accident.

After Leo got the ticket, according to the number above, found the corresponding cabin, although the cabin is very small, but it is enough for one person to live, and a transparent glass is inlaid in the original window of the cabin, so that the people in the cabin can see the situation outside.

Leo didn't linger much in the cabin, but walked out of the cabin and down the corridors and stairs to the deck.

The mast on the deck had long since been removed, replaced by a two-man steam engine, and some other pipes linked the steam engine to the huge airbag at the top and several fumaroles at the stern, adding a few more levers and the like to the original rudder.

Although the steam engine was the largest object on the deck, and the most conspicuous object, it was not something of interest to Leo, who could easily make a steam engine that was smaller, lighter, and more efficient than this one, and he was now focusing on the brick-like fuel that steam placed next to the steam engine.

As we all know, the fuel used in the steam engine is specially treated charcoal, and the wood of this world contains extremely strong combustion durability and temperature, and after making charcoal, this durability and temperature will increase several times.

Although there is a great demand for charcoal in various countries, the plants in this world grow very fast, an ordinary tree only needs a few months to grow into wood, and some faster-growing vine plants can also be made into charcoal, so there is no need to worry about fuel shortages here, which also leads to a very low thirst for new fuel in this world.

However, the black brick-like fuel that appeared in Leo's eyes now was clearly a new type of fuel, and although Leo didn't know how effective it was, he was sure that this fuel contained extremely large energy fluctuations, just like the energy blocks needed to operate various devices in the universe.

Curious, Leo walked over to the brick fuel, picked up one casually, and examined it carefully.

This block fuel is apparently made from charcoal, but it is unknown how the maker used to completely change the carbonized fiber of the charcoal into something similar to ore.

"Hey, what about you? That's you, didn't you read the warning on the ticket? Passengers can't go up to deck. At this moment, a dirty technician came out from under the machine, saw Leo pick up the piece of fuel, and immediately shouted loudly.

"Did you make this?" Leo asked, ignoring the technician's shouting.

When he asked, he also used some small means, such as using a little bit of the power of the Webweaver's Mark. While on the ship, he discovers that when the power of the Web Weaver's Mark is applied to the sound of speech, it can produce a mysterious power that affects people's hearts.

Sure enough, the technician, who was just an ordinary person, had no way to resist the effect of this power, as if he was talking to his boss, and explained seriously: "No, this fuel is not made by me, it is a new fuel made according to the recipe of Teacher Valjean." ”

"Valjean?" Leo couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the name of this acquaintance, he remembered that Valjean had now been hired by the United Kingdom of France as the kingdom's chief technician, leading a team of technicians who were responsible for improving all kinds of steam machines in the kingdom, and his status was extraordinary.

Every apprentice around such a person with a special status will definitely be vetted by the United Kingdom, even if there are apprentices from other countries, such apprentices should not be allowed to leave the United Kingdom, let alone let such apprentices take any kind of formula.

With doubts in his heart, Leo asked again, "Since you are Valjean's apprentice, why are you in Dariat?

The technician replied honestly: "Two years ago, after Mr. Valjean was recruited into the United Chamber of Commerce, he dismissed us apprentices, and I was not able to find a job in Fran, so I returned to Dariath. The recipe was given to us by Mr. Valjean when he dismissed his apprentices, and everyone chose one of his designs that interested them. My hometown is a famous snow country, and there is a big demand for fuel, so I fell in love with this recipe that can purify fuel. ”

After hearing this, Leo looked at the fuel block in his hand and asked, "Is this fuel any good, what are the advantages and disadvantages?"

"It works, of course it works. The technician seemed to be very concerned about the usefulness of the fuel block in Leo's hand, and hurriedly replied: "This fuel can produce a higher temperature than ordinary charcoal, and the gas produced is separated by a special method, part of it becomes the feather gas required by the airship, and the other part becomes a recyclable fluorescent gas." ”

As he spoke, the technician ran to the edge of the deck, reached out and twisted a switch, and then a glass lamp installed there burst into bursts of intense light, which was dozens of times stronger than the electric light that Leo had seen in the nest city that day, enough to be used as a beacon for the lighthouse at night.

"This fluorescent gas can be used for a long time, and it takes about three days after I tested it for this fluorescent gas to gradually weaken, and it will disappear completely after five days. The technician ran to another jar and said, "However, the fluorescent gas consumed can be poured into this jar, and after some method improvements, it can be turned into a culture liquid, which is used on the luminous plant of the lantern tree, which can enhance the luminous intensity of that plant." ”

"That's not all this fuel block does," said the technician, who ran to another metal canister and said, "The exhaust gases that can't be separated in the end will be poured into it, and when we fly into the air, we can spray this gas onto the deck from time to time, and on the ship, this gas is very peculiar, it has a strong adhesion that even a strong wind can't blow away, and it's ......" as he spoke, he suddenly leaned in front of Leo, and whispered mysteriously." I said don't tell anyone that this exhaust gas can actually drive away birds, and the reason why our airships can fly in the air without being attacked by birds is because of this gas. ”

Leo put down the fuel block in his hand and asked, "If this refining fuel block is so good, why didn't Daliat use it?"

The technician was a little embarrassed by Leo's inquiry, and it didn't seem like he was talking, but in the end, he couldn't resist the power of the Web Weaver's mark, and said completely: "This fuel block has only one drawback, that is, it requires a lot of charcoal to refine, and in the case of the fuel in your hand, it may require five hundred cenmu of charcoal. ”

The technician said a dairiat dosage unit, which Leo was not able to understand.

The other party also seemed to see that Leo did not understand, so he added: "It is about the total weight of two hundred cedar trees after firing the charcoal of the city." ”

Leo knew that the cedar tree was the most common tree in the northern ice and snow regions, and it was also an important material for the northern peoples, whether it was used for fuel or to build houses. Probably because of the temperature, its growth cycle is slightly longer than that of ordinary trees, so people in the northern part of the country are not as lavish in their use of tree fuel as the southerners, and they are very budget-conscious.

Two hundred cedar woods were enough to supply the inhabitants of a small town with heating fuel for a winter, but now they can only be made into a block the size of a square brick, and it may not have been used for long, so it is no wonder that this fuel block has not spread in Dalyat.

In fact, this Valjean apprentice was completely misguided, he should not go to Daliat to promote this fuel, but to the Moisan continent to promote this fuel, and by the way, promote this airship.

The climate of the Moissanite continent can shorten the time it takes for a tree to grow in less than two months, and the variety of plants is almost endless, so there is no need to worry about consumption.

In addition, because the plants in Moissanity grow too fast, it is very difficult to maintain roads, which is also the biggest headache for the governments of Mozambique.

Although Leo quickly thought of the best place to sell the fuel block and airship, he did not tell the technician, and as he was about to inquire further about the recipe, a sound of footsteps came from the staircase, followed by the receptionist in the cabin below and two men who looked like security guards on the ship walking up.

They couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Leo standing on the deck, and just as they were about to say something, Leo opened his mouth to the technician and said, "I had a good conversation with you just now, and I hope we will have a chance to talk in the next trip." ”

With that, he walked among the men, up the stairs and into the cabin.

Everyone watched Leo leave, but no one stopped him, and it wasn't until Leo disappeared from their sight that he reacted, followed by the person in charge of receiving the passengers, and asked the technician with a puzzled expression, "Do you know him?"

"I just met, it's a mechanical enthusiast, it's a funny guy!" the technician replied casually, only to find that he couldn't remember what he had just said to Leo.

The technician's answer didn't make the man notice anything unusual, and he also thought that Leo was just an ordinary mechanical enthusiast, and quickly put it behind him, and then discussed with the technician about the airship's route and the sailing of the ship.

After making a flight plan, the man went down to the cabin to close the passage hatch and notify the passengers in the various cabins, while the other two remained on deck to help the technician start the steam engine.

Ten minutes later, the airship slowly lifted into the air, and after reaching a certain altitude, it moved north with the air flow of the fumarole.
