"My lord, who is Uzov? Gantia is currently the President of the Technical Guild. Greetings from here. ”

Uzov, who entered the reception room, saluted respectfully, but it was not the courtesy of his subjects to his lord, but the way his followers saluted their magicians. This method may be considered an insult to some nobles. But it would be ridiculous to show such deference to a member of the Turtledove League with three birds embroidered on his body.

On the contrary, standing behind the nobleman, the three people who accompanied him had their own expressions. The two lightly armed soldiers looked angry, and wanted to dismantle the rude person in front of them. But the other black-clad deacon looked at the leader of the Technology Guild with a playful expression.

Sitting comfortably on the sofa chair, the Baron from the neighboring kingdom did not get up, but bowed slightly. With the same disrespectful attitude, he responded to Uzov's salute. On the one hand, he wants to give the other party a dismount and give him a few more bargaining chips in the future negotiations; On the other hand, it was also because of his attention that he was all attracted by the layout of the reception room.

Unlike the reception rooms of the nobility or other chambers of commerce, the reception room of the Technology Guild is more like an exhibition center for the earth. However, it is not to pile everything up in a mess, but all the objects that can be seen in the room are related to the patented technology of the technical guild, and all of them are made by the craftsmen of the guild, which is different from the traditional style of the mysterious land.

In the traditional style, the more noble the material and the more fancy the decoration, the better the thing. But the target is to produce goods in large quantities, and of course it is impossible to spend too much time on fine crafting. So the objects that come out of the Tech Guild are, in the words of a magician, simple.

But simplicity is not poor acid, but in the straight and neat lines, showing the craftsmanship of the technical guild. Although it is not as soft as a handmade object, it is so different in this era.

Sensing that the nobleman in front of him was attracted by a thick-backed straight knife on the shelf, Uzov said politely: "My lord, do you like this knife?" This is the result of our guild's craftsmen using unique techniques. Its value lies not in its uniqueness, but in equipping an army with the same quality. Of course, this premise is that the material must be sufficient. If it's just a few, it's better to say that if you really want to equip a whole army, our guild doesn't have so many materials in stock. ”

Uzov made a little fun of the guild itself, which was to ease the atmosphere in the reception room that was about to freeze. As for what he said, the 'unique' technique used in this steel knife is actually just the way the alloy is forged. Maybe this seems to be a common sense game in the eyes of a certain traverser, but in the maze where all kinds of magic materials are rampant, it is indeed a field that no one has studied.

More importantly, the alloy formula of this steel knife is not from the box cut, nor is it someone's 'casual remark'. It's just something that the dwarves themselves played with after Lin came up with a concept. Although in the eyes of those masters, such a steel knife cannot be called a work at all, but under the premise of mass production, it can be regarded as a qualified armament.

As for why the Technology Guild would produce weapons, it went against the will of a certain crossing public who did not intend to do the arms business, and it was simply that Lin did not restrict the development of the Technology Guild. And the creation of swords and armor is a basic craft for blacksmiths in the land. As long as they have technology that they can learn from, it's hard not to use it.

With new technology as a reason to speak, the baron couldn't continue to hold the shelf, so he casually asked, "Oh." So what is the so-called new technology? ”

"Hehe, my lord, that's what I don't understand. All I know is that it's a technology that has never existed in the Lost Land, and that the details are protected by the guild's regulations. My task is simply to make the craftsmen the best use of their talents, so that the employers can watch their commissions fulfilled with satisfaction, and that's it. ”

"Oh. So what if I say, I'm going to issue a commission, to make some special parts? The baron crossed his fingers and asked tentatively.

"As long as we can do it and have a reasonable remuneration, I believe that there will be craftsmen who are willing to accept the commission. What I can guarantee is that the craftsman who receives the commission will definitely have the ability to get it done. There will not be any people who are not skilled or good at it. ”

"Then I'm going to build an airship. And it's not an ordinary airship, but the one that has recently been made by the Technology Guild with components, and it's exactly the same. ”

Faced with the baron's straightforward request, Uzov could only smile and say, "If it is such a request, then we really can't do it." ”

"Didn't you just say that as long as you can, you can accept the commission. Or are you cheating on a nobleman? Think about what you're going to say next, and you'll grow up. The baron said mockingly and threateningly.

"As long as it's us, we will. My lord, that's not what I said, but it's basically true. But for the airship, the Technical Guild only accepted the commission to make some of the parts. You want the whole airship, we can't do it. ”

"If you know how to make parts, you can't build an airship! If you continue to use this kind of prevarication, I think I can reasonably question the credibility of your Tech Guild, which is not what was promised on the forums. ”

The baron pressed forward with words. Although Uzov was angry when he heard it, he felt laughing instead. He thought he understood a little bit about his master's thoughts when he was questioned by a bunch of inexplicable old stubborns on the way to mathematics.

Uzov, who was already experienced in the world, hid his thoughts well, and still said in a polite manner: "My lord. The so-called airship is the most advanced technology in the world of magicians. On top of the airship, in addition to the magic tower, are the five legendary floating islands. And the members of our technology guild, although there are also magicians to join, but those adults are not good at this aspect of technology, in addition, at most, it is the rank of magic apprentice, and more ordinary people join. Do you think it's reasonable that such a group of people could build an airship that most magicians wouldn't make? ——”

Although the attitude is polite, the content is not a tactful refutation at all, and it is almost pointing at the other party's nose and scolding the idiot. Still, Uzov tried to calm the mood and continued to explain.

"—For the airship that you are concerned about, the technical guild is only involved in the production of some parts, not all of them. We don't know anything about the assembly and whether there is any additional processing in the automotive manufacturing and R&D center. Suppose you think you have the parts, you can put together an airship. You can issue commissions, build the parts, and then hire a magician who specializes in the technology to build the airship. However, it is interesting to note that although we know how many parts are shipped, we also don't know how much was actually used and how much was used as spare parts. In the name of the MaintainTech Guild, my advice is to spend a lot of money on a bunch of parts that you don't know how to assemble, and be cautious. I don't want to undermine the good reputation that the Tech Guild has built up over the years because of what we can't do in the future. ”
