The advent of the magic stone steam engine has brought about a lot of changes, this new power, even people without magic can control and use it, which makes the commoners gather in large numbers because of the factory, breaking the original situation of living in one place, and because of the increase in income and the need for some complex work, there is a need for literacy.

The previous emperor was keenly aware of this, and after many battles with the aristocracy, he successfully issued many new decrees, such as the "Literacy Order", "Factory Autonomy Order", "Elected Officials", etc., and finally the current Emperor came to the throne a hundred years ago and began to carry out more drastic reforms.

As a result, the class of civilian officials expanded rapidly, and won the support of many commoner transcendents, and used excellent means to win over many small and medium-sized nobles with interests, coupled with the absolute force of the royal family itself, and the maintenance of the stability of the night watchman, the royal guards guarding the imperial capital frequently went out on patrol, and the new policy was completely consolidated.

In addition, the real nobles didn't really care about the commoners, and when they didn't break through the boundaries of their tolerance, they also made a lot of compromises to the royal family, but in order to stabilize their position, the traditionalism was born.

And the emperor of the imperial capital, his reform was not thorough, the "Slave Abolition Act" was withdrawn on the third day of promulgation, amended into the "New Slave and Employment Order", and so on.

"Order me three magic stone grinders, and three magic stone steam engines."

Iren said to Uluru.

The Magic Stone Grinder can polish the useless hard shell of the appearance of the freshly mined Magic Stone very well, and a Magic Stone Steam Engine can drive it.

Uluru took Iren to the back of the store, through the storeroom, to a spacious clearing, where a layer of enchantment magic was applied, saving the trouble of snow falling in the clearing and needing to clean up, seeing the enchantment, Iren's expression was a little unnatural, but it didn't appear that as soon as he entered here, the enchantment behind him was closed, so his short unnatural expression returned to normal.

The dwarf goblin pointed to a half-meter-tall black guy and said to Iren, "This is the machine of the Magic Stone Steam Engine, you can experiment with it, and the Vero Magic Shop will ensure that the other machines are as effective and in the same state as it." ”

Eren nodded, looking at the machine, forged from black iron and engraved with a large number of magical patterns from dragons, elves, and sorgons.

It is connected to a magic stone cart, but because it is used for display, its upper part is a flat iron box, the top is sealed with a round top cover, and there is a thick iron pipe next to the top cover, Iren glanced inside, the structure inside is very strange, with a large number of mesh and movable iron plates, it should be able to close and open freely.

The lower half is much like the free-piston engine of Ilyen's previous life.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Iren hammered three times hard, looking at the machine with no loose parts, and nodded with satisfaction, yes, this machine has a good eye for him.

"Try it, from the current point of view, this machine has no structural problems, and judging from the smoothness and roundness of this machine, and the balance of the pipes, this level of precision will not be refined by a third-rate alchemist, nor will it be the workload of being contracted to be manufactured by a part of the machine."

He nodded and said, "Very good, then find a car and install it." ”

"What a big human, you Northland people are really rude in their methods, although Uluru is not worried about the quality of the goods, but your actions really make Uluru pity the fate of this group of big guys."

Uluru chattered as he reached the left side of the clearing and ripped off the green cloth covering a large object, revealing an iron cart.

According to Iren's aesthetics, this magic car is actually not very good, it looks too bulky, its front half is flat, the back half is very bloated, and the magic stone steam engine is placed in the back as an energy source, which is also different from the previous car.

Uluru opened the lid on the back of the car, then walked back and lifted the magic stone steam engine, and moved it without changing his face.

Seeing him look like a machine bigger than the others, Iren was afraid that the little goblin would be crushed to death, and almost couldn't help but take a hand, but seeing Uluru's footsteps move without a little shaking, he gave up on this idea.

When Uluru had the machine ready, he filled the tank with water and took a few more magic stones and threw them in.

After putting on the lid that left the machine pipe empty, he was able to make it inside the car and start the machine, and the driver's seat was obviously changed to a position suitable for the goblin.

Thundered......

Thundered......

The vehicle started, and the surface of the bulky body began to tremble faintly, and then moved.

Circling the entire clearing, this big cumbersome guy was surprisingly nimble and fast.

Whining......

On the fifth lap, the iron pipe behind the car spewed blue-black steam.

Nowadays, the magic stone steam engine in this era has undergone a lot of improvements, and the water tank is engraved with a large number of magic pattern arrays, so that the magic power of the magic stone can be more smoothly integrated into the water.

Although named a steam engine, the principle is more like an internal combustion engine.

The whole steam engine is divided into two parts, one up and down, the magic stone is put into the upper layer, and after it starts to play a role, the water flow of magic power will be directed into the lower layer, and then it will begin to volatilize, so as to pry the lever of the machine, which is an internal movement.

Water is more of a medium than its own effectiveness, and the simple steam engine has also been invented, but it is much less efficient and convenient than the magic stone steam engine.

After the upper layer starts to operate in the lower layer, the other impurities of the magic stone will also be decomposed, and the partition between the upper layer and the lower layer is a very precise design, when there is too much water vapor caused by the boiling water of the magic power, it will leak out a part, and then the water vapor will erupt from the upper pipe together with the impurities of the magic stone.

The mechanics shown in this are already very good in Iren's opinion.

After driving for a few more laps, Uluru got out of the car, patted the magic car, and said triumphantly: "Vero is a high-quality product!" What a big human being, you can buy it with confidence! ”

Iren looked at the tires of the car and said thoughtfully, "This is a spell engraved with lightness?" ”

"Of course, otherwise ordinary dirt roads would not be able to carry this big iron guy, and seriously, you are much more backward than the imperial capital here...... Uluru usually only drives here, and the wheels engraved with the lightness technique need to be refilled with gemstone powder on a regular basis, and the wear and tear can be great if you go out. ”

"Uluru is the champion of Iron Tooth Mountain, but after coming here, his hands are alive!"

Uluru grumbled dissatisfied.

Yi Lun shook his head a little funny, and then said: "Only in the middle of the empire can the mage group use the power to turn mud into stone and build a large number of roads, as far as I know, the standard roads are not too big in other borders, and the northern land is still covered with snow all year round, heavy snow will hinder the road, it is not cost-effective to build roads, it is better to use demonic beasts to pull goods according to tradition." ”

After saying that, he was stunned for a moment, staring at the wheel and frowning.

The wheels really don't work, but what about the tracks?

As far as he knew, there were no tracked vehicles in this world.

Tracked vehicles do have a lot of shortcomings, which can be roughly listed in two points:

1. The long-range maneuverability is poor, and the crawler type is not suitable for long-distance travel.

Second, the track will damage the road when driving on the highway.

But on the contrary, there are many advantages of tracked vehicles, such as low requirements for road surface and outstanding off-road ability......

It is true that the crawler truck has a lot of damage to the road surface due to its heavy weight, but are there normal roads in the Northland? Except for the interior of the city, I'm afraid there are only one or two.

Poor long-range mobility, this is nothing, just use it, no matter what, it's better than using Warcraft.

It is entirely possible to set up a chamber of commerce to specialize in the production of tracked vehicles, and then use the tracked vehicles to hire civilians for long-distance transportation, and then occupy a share of the transportation of goods in the Northland.

As for the backlash of the nobles, there is nothing to be afraid of, in the entire Warcraft transportation industry in the Northland, the leading boss is his Okmos family, and according to his father's character, he will not care about the fact that money is poured from the left hand to the right hand, and this part of the industry is still in his father's hands, and it is involved by some side clansmen who have awakened the ability of the family's bloodline to tame beasts, and even the illegitimate children who do not have the surname Okmos participate.

If the share seized in the future is too large, it will be enough to share a part of the money yourself.

If those clansmen have any dissatisfaction, they can only hold back, or join his chamber of commerce, so that his power will be even greater.

After knowing the family's situation, Iren had already decided that even if he didn't compete for that position, he would start building his own power, a force that was completely controlled by himself.

And the Chamber of Commerce and the factory can gather a large number of people for him, although most of them are destined to be civilians with no power at the bottom, but he has long had plans for civilians to use the power of the transcendent.

And the wisdom of mortals is also not to be underestimated.

Iren, who has memories of his past life, understands this deeply.

The gift of the memory of his previous life has given him a lot more chips in his hands, and some ideas he can reproduce even if he doesn't know the specific production method, although this will make the product easy to be plagiarized, but who is he?

Please look at his dear old father, who is valued by both the traditionalists and reformers, the great nobleman of the Northland, second only to the Grand Duke of the North, the veteran of the Imperial military, and even the strength has spread into the Night Watchman, secretly controlling the shadow of the empire with a huge military power!

Come on, come on, do you try to reproduce one?

What's more, Iren only plans to develop his power in the Northlands at present, so that he not only has the protection of his father, but also can make better use of his reputation, and be pitted by his pit father and the Grand Duke of the North, whom he has never met so far, and use his name to reason with the various dark organizations in the Northlands.

In addition to showing the strength of the Axmonton family, where the Grand Duke of the North is located, it also made Iren remembered by many people.

This brings him not only danger, but also opportunity!

In any case, he was sheltered by the Grand Duke of the North once, and this reputation will not be feared by no one in the entire Northland, which can also make him really show his strength, and he doesn't have to worry about too many things.

A sentence is young and ignorant, uncles drink this glass of wine, I will punish myself with three glasses, if it is not enough first, then three glasses...... The matter can be basically solved.

Eren stared at the wheels of the magic car, and brainstorming frantically surged in his mind, and one plan after another was formulated by him, and soon there was a prototype.

His gaze became a little gloomy, the early development of these knowledge, and he himself will continue to become stronger, and it is time to start preparing for the Blue Star Papermaking Technique, which has long been decided to replace the unpleasant alchemy paper.

But there's the question, who does it for themselves?

Hire people?

Eren gently turned the ring in his hand and fell into deep thought.

Without a trusted team, this is a troublesome matter, although Archmage Martell, as well as the Psychic Grammar Tower behind him, and the supposedly legendary Necromancer Grandpa, are willing to support him.

But Iren didn't trust it, after all, there was too little contact between the two sides, and the legendary necromancer was willing to support him, there must be other reasons besides blood relations.

"Mother's father? That is, the previous count of Jesenas? The old earl is said to be dead, but he didn't expect to be alive all along, so is he a traditionalist or a reformist? ”

Iren is reluctant to delve into this kind of thing, if he really encounters a problem that is difficult to solve, he will naturally be cheeky to ask for help, if he gives a request that is difficult for him to accept, he will not care about the consent of face, if it is a contract, joke, aren't we relatives? You don't trust me?

He thought about it teasingly, and he didn't take this thought seriously, but just soothed his somewhat hot brain.

But when he thought of Hesenas, Iren thought of a good candidate, and that was his cousin, Chris. Hesenas!

This young aristocrat, who likes to travel and does business everywhere, has a very good relationship with himself, and he is not too scheming, and he is a good candidate.

Find him yourself, this guy who is said to be doing tepid business, is probably going to agree.

He still has the ability, and the basic management ability of the chamber of commerce is qualified, but the resources at hand are just that, and everything he does seems to be petty, so that the business has not been too colorful.

And this is exactly complementary to Ilen, who has the resources but no time, and Chris has the time but no resources.

But he can't completely trust Chris, especially what he wants to do secretly, and he can't let him get involved for Chris's safety, so he has to think of another way.

The lesson of the maid Sunny is that even those who are truly loyal to you can betray you in this world.

Things seem to be back to square one, and he needs someone he trusts completely
