Victor complained as he picked up the wrench and screwed the bolts on the robotic arm.

Since the beginning of the Aether technological revolution, mechanics have become a sought-after profession on the continent of Thea, as everything that uses high-pressure steam engines requires professional mechanics for maintenance and regular steam pressurization.

In this day and age, high-pressure steam was just as essential an energy source as the oil in Charlotte's previous life.

At this moment, at the door of the classroom, the noise of the girls sounded again:

"Ahh

Victor, who was concentrating on his work, shook his hand again and smashed the wrench to the floor.

With some exasperation, he ordered the mechanical dog: "Come on, alpha dog, get rid of this group of noisy women!" ”

"Woohoo! Woohoo! ”

The alpha dog wagged its tail excitedly and rushed out the door.

After a few moments, the panicked screams and noises of the girls sounded outside the door, and soon, the noise faded away and gradually disappeared at the end of the hallway.

"Whew, the world is finally quiet." Victor had a reassuring expression.

He looked at the alpha who Sahuan ran back, and was about to stroke the other party's dog head as a reward, but unexpectedly, his outstretched hand hung in the air and stopped awkwardly.

Because the husky's head was covered with a triangular piece of cloth.

It is blue and white striped in color and has a cute bow on it.

Charlotte knew in her heart, no wonder there was a faint scent in the air since the dog returned to the classroom.

There was a loud bang, the classroom door was pushed open, and a girl walked into the classroom with a menacing bang.

Her face was hot with shame.

The girl pressed the hem of the pleated skirt with her hand, took back the cloth from the dog's head, and then walked up to Victor and slapped the other party in a big pocket.

"Just、Even Mr. Victor can't be so excessive!"

With tears in the corners of her eyes, the girl snatched the door and went out, and when she left, in order to prevent the wind from blowing her skirt away, she pressed her hands behind her.

Victor had a bright red palm print on his face, a confused expression, and then sighed: "Alpha, I let you go out to make a riot, not for you to harass ......"

"Wang!"

Alpha made a doge face as if he didn't understand.

Victor sighed and continued to climb up the robotic arm to repair.

"Look, Mr. Charlotte, women are such troublesome creatures......"

After more than ten minutes, the robotic arm was finally repaired, and Victor was about to leave with the toolbox in his hand, when Charlotte stopped him.

"I need to ask my husband for a favor, please take a look at this device."

Charlotte took out the candlestick device she had found in her alchemy vault and took it out of her bag.

Victor's eyes lit up, and he held his chin and nodded: "I see, it looks like a very sophisticated mechanism, it seems to be used for ......"

Speaking of this, he stopped vigilantly and looked up at Charlotte: "Sir is obviously a White Rose Knight, why is he interested in this kind of device?" ”

"This involves a case that I am currently investigating, and it is not convenient to disclose the details to you."

"Oh? It seems that this case is very important to you, right? Victor had a wicked smile in his eyes.

Charlotte had a bad feeling in her heart, but she still bowed slightly.

Sure enough, Victor laughed twice: "That is...... Mr. Charlotte has a request for me now? ”

"I can pay the necessary expenses." Charlotte grimaced.

"No, no, no, how could I be interested in such a vulgar thing as money."

Victor stretched out his finger and shook it: "I want to ask Mr. Charlotte to do a small favor and serve as a guard for my business negotiations tomorrow, after the matter is completed, I will help you draw the design of this device, and tell you in detail how to use it." We will talk about the details of the negotiation tomorrow on the road. ”

Charlotte pondered for a moment, Professor Jeffrey did not necessarily have this Victor's expertise in mechanical devices, and if the devices were handed over to him, he might be able to get better results.

……

The next day, the three of Charlotte met at the gate of the non-commissioned officer school, and then walked towards the bustling neighborhood of Frank City.

Vic said that he had recently tinkered with a new steam invention and found a barber shop on the high street to try it out, and if the trial worked well, the barber shop owner would give him a portion of the business income. He is in dire need of money now, so I hope that today's negotiations will negotiate a good price.

Charlotte was curious, it stands to reason that the profession of mechanic belongs to the trend of the times, belongs to the popular industry with a lot of income, why Victor is so short of money.

"As I said, money is a vulgar thing, just a tool, if it is just money piled up at home and not spent, it is no different from waste paper, so all the money I earn from my work as a mechanic is spent."

"Where's the flower?" Charlotte was dumbfounded, Victor was not interested in women, the clothes on his body were very simple, and he didn't seem to be a drinker.

Victor opened his arms and closed his eyes slightly, as if he was enjoying the applause and cheers of tens of thousands of people at the moment.

"Those boring women gave me a lot of nicknames, such as "Red-haired Victor", "Down-and-out Nobleman", "Brilliant Waltz"...... But do you know what one day I would most like to be called by the people of the whole of Xiya? ”

"Tie Hanhan?" Ilya had a harmless expression on her face.

Charlotte glanced at her, and he felt that the title was actually the most suitable for Miss Elijah.

Victor held out his finger and shook it, "Someday, I want people to call me 'Guardian of Actor; The Breaker of the Chains of Technology; Great mentor of scholars, mechanics, and factory owners; unmarried; those who do not save; Founder of the Cult of the God of Steam; The god of invention in all of Thea, Victor Parridge!" ”

Charlotte, you have too many prefixes, and there are no strange things mixed in there.

"So you're investing all your money in the invention of steam?" Charlotte translated the other party's meaning into human words.

"That's right, I want to set a small goal for myself first."

"You also want to earn him 100 million first?"

"I want to subvert an industry with a small invention, and then gradually accumulate capital, and then subvert all industries in the world."

Good guys, this is really just a small billion.

"This is the first place I picked."

Victor pointed proudly ahead, and at the end of the block, there was a small shop called "Jack's Barbershop".

"Next, I would like to invite you two to witness with me my first invention that changed the world - the inverted head scissors!"

Charlotte almost thought she had misheard, what, what hair scissors?
