Chapter 192: The Purpose of Steam

At the request of Professor Esther's letter, Lewis was dressed and mounted in the carriage.

"Go to the University of Intes.

By the way, stop at Beckland Bank halfway through, I have some business to take care of. ”

Lewis lifted his half-height silk top hat, and now that the improvised generator was complete, it was time to try to sell electricity.

The coachman whipped the delicate horse's buttocks with his leather whip, and the horse gasped and pulled the carriage and ran slowly towards the outside of the manor.

The morning glow shone through the carriage window, and Lewis thought about his big plan to make money as he read the newspaper for the day.

In this world, electrical appliances have appeared, but they are not used on a large scale, and it takes time and space for people to adapt to AC and make money with it.

In other words, if he wants AC to create benefits, he needs to cooperate with those influential nobles or parliamentarians and give up some of the benefits.

Fortunately, now that he has the support of the Church of the God of Steam and Machines, even if he is a great nobleman and a councilor, he must be restrained.

In the mysterious world, divine power is above royal power, and even King George IV of the Kingdom of Rune needs some divine support before he dares to try to promote to Sequence Zero.

Having exchanged enough gold pounds at the bank of Beckland, Lewis arrived at the University of Intes, in the laboratory of Professor Esther.

Pushing open the door, the small space was crowded with people, and a gentleman happily shook the handle of the generator, which allowed the light bulb to keep on, emitting a light that illuminated every corner of the laboratory, far more so than a gas lamp.

Seeing that familiar light, Lewis couldn't help but feel a little moved, perhaps, Intis will have a new development, and will get closer and closer to the world he once lived in.

Professor Esther, who was recording the experiment, put down the pen in his hand and said excitedly:

"Mr. Lewis, welcome to witness this history-changing moment!"

Lewis smiled, he gathered the craftsmen, announced the patenting of the generator, and came up with the idea of building a power station.

Storing current has always been a difficult way for power stations, so the power is kept on the go, and it's all controlled by a computer to ensure that there is no excessive waste.

However, according to the current development of science and technology, Lewis can only choose to ensure the stability of electricity consumption by building more power stations, and power waste is inevitable.

Spending a lot of money in one go, Lewis was able to make the plan go smoothly, and I believe that in the next period of time, he will inevitably deal with those nobles or parliamentarians.

……

In the afternoon, Bonova. Gustav was sitting in the basement, his eyes closed, his mind wandering away.

Suddenly, a great will descended on Bonova. Gustav opened his eyes suddenly, and a majestic voice exploded in his head:

"Lewis. Harvey will try to build an electric age, and you will do your best to help him, and describe him as my incarnation, so that the bishops can spread Lewis in my church. Harvey's incident with alternating current. ”

Bonova. Gustav stood up, bowed humbly, and replied:

"Do as you will!"

He immediately began to write the story of Lewis and AC, and spread the oracle for the clergy of the church to start spreading the story. Harvey is the embodiment of the god of steam and machines in this era.

……

Winters in Intis are getting colder, January is the coldest season of winter, but when the month is over, the temperature will rise.

The Intis sycamores will sprout green branches, and bards will fill the streets of Trier with wonderful stories.

Before he knew it, Lewis had been in Trier for more than a month, trying to summarize the rules of the "Priest of Calamity", trying to promote the value of AC in the newspaper every day as a businessman, trying to find a pretty, sexy gray-haired woman.

The construction of alternating current was first chosen in the royal district of the aristocratic gathering area, and Lewis had reason to believe that the good-looking nobles would pay for the alternating current, as long as he advertised the alternating current as unique enough.

"Recently, the alternating current equipment is almost ready for use, and the Sauron family, as a former royal family, has sent me an invitation.

They were mostly influenced by the Church of Steam and the Mechanics and wanted to be kind to me, and this was my best chance to roll out alternating current to the nobles.

Although the Saurons are only former royals, they still have a great influence in Intis, a behemoth with a history of more than 2,000 years. ”

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the room, and the blonde maid stood outside, and said in a crisp voice:

"Mr. Lewis, Miss Stephanie invites you downstairs to taste the red wine that has just been made."

"Got it." Lewis spread the newspaper in his hand on the table, and he casually removed the half-height silk top hat from the coat rack and walked out of the room.

He felt that the role of "Priest of Calamity" was going to be accelerated, and after coming to Intis, perhaps life was too peaceful, and his digestion of potions had slowed down a lot.

After staying here for more than a month, the digestion progress was not even as good as the few days he spent in the port of Enmat to exterminate the gangs.

At the current rate, it may take a year or two for the Calamity Priest potion to be fully digested, which is not good news.

In the dining room on the first floor, the red light of the fireplace dances behind you, and the wood burns and makes a slight "crackling" sound.

Mrs. Slant was sitting at the table, two bottles of red wine placed in front of her.

These wines, which are not at their best when they are first made, can only be truly mellow after a long period of preservation.

"Mr. Lewis, this is the wine I have made according to the method you have provided.

I have called you here today to taste the taste of this wine together. ”

Mrs. Slunt frowned, and even when she spoke to Lewis, the gloom did not fully dissipate.

After the death of Mr. Carmen, the already struggling Slent estate suffered again, and wine sales fell by at least 30% compared to before.

Therefore, she had high expectations for the wine that would be made with this new method, and decided to start tasting it as soon as possible.

"It's an honor for me, and I really hope to taste Mr. Lyle's craft again." Lewis casually threw his top hat on the coat rack, and he sat down at the table, wrapping his napkin.

The humble and elegant waiter, wearing monocles, put on thin silk gloves and vigorously shake the red wine.

He then poured the red wine into the decanter and counted the time.

The smell of red wine wafted through the dining room, and Mrs. Snent's eyes were fixed on the decanter, and the look on her face became more and more nervous.
