Chapter 407: Unexpected Joy: Rubber Tree! Steam engine! (6400 words)

The tribes left behind by Kopakati don't need them to take care of them.

Not far ahead is Kipchak Suyu, the northernmost part of the Sun Empire, and naturally there are people to help them deal with it properly.

Atahualpa summoned reinforcements as soon as possible, and Kipchak Suyu's elite men and horses immediately heard the news and took over the thousands of people with ease.

"Kimchi Rocca, you lead people to clean up this tribe thoroughly, and kill all the extraordinary people under the [Hammerhead God] system.

The rest of us have all migrated to our territory, and we have a month to convert to the sun god, so we don't have so much time to waste.

You don't need me to teach you the rest, do you? ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

In front of Atahualpa, an indigenous warrior with bronze skin glowing with pale gold and golden armor, as majestic as a mountain, bowed his head deeply and beat his chest hard.

This is the captain of his guard, equivalent to the guardian knight of the nobles of the Old World, and also a few fourth-order mythical creatures under his command.

Don't look at Atahualpa's bloodline is richer and closer to the sun god, just eat and drink all the way, and naturally grow into a mythical creature when he becomes an adult.

But if you really want to fight, I am afraid that you may not be able to beat this Kimchi Rocca who relied on the second-level bloodline and the "Sun Holy Codex" to fight a little bit.

Byron subconsciously turned on the [Echo of History] and glanced at the number one officer under this partner, but he didn't find anything abnormal.

But he inexplicably felt that there was a hint of familiarity on the captain of the guard, and he wanted to distinguish it, but it was too thin and elusive.

It's like the other party has inadvertently got something.

"Your Majesty, Lord of Heaven, it is almost dark, and it will take some time for the sailboat to climb the mountain after it docks at the port.

Why don't you take a ride in my chariot of the sun and walk through the air? My princess has prepared a dinner party for you and Her Majesty the Queen in the palace, please! ”

On this side, Atahualpa arranged the follow-up and immediately greeted Byron warmly to start again.

Violet did not deliberately hide the queen's personality on her body, and even the godhead of the [Queen of Heaven], and naturally she was regarded by him as one of the most honorable guests.

"It's fine."

When it came to someone else's territory, Byron naturally did as he pleased.

Of course, he cherishes his own life the most, and he cherishes Violet's life even more.

If you had to hesitate a little about this invitation before reaching an alliance of interests with the prince, with the establishment of the kickback alliance, this concern will suddenly be reduced by half.

After all, as long as you are a normal person, no matter what you betray, you will never betray your interests!

Although Byron saw him as a big dog, he probably felt that this was a god of wealth when he looked at Byron.

The lucrative kickbacks, the vast territory, and even the position of the fifth-order [False God] that belonged to him were now all pinned on Byron, the arms supplier.

Even if his dead father came, he would not necessarily be closer to Byron, a half-brother.

In addition, Byron turns on [Echoes of History] from time to time to gain insight into the potential malice of others, and he is full of confidence in the safety of himself and Violet.

After a few words of advice to the first mate, Bruch, he picked up the girl and boarded the extraordinarily spacious chariot of the sun in Atahualpa.

Wowβ€”β€”!

The monster Firesparrow in charge of pulling the cart suddenly took them into the air.

In the blink of an eye, the natives who were lining up to move at their feet became a group of small ants.

There is no doubt that, judging by Atahualpa's style, these people will not be confiscated, and will eventually become the prince's personal slaves or exclusive clan.

Byron was also happy with the other party's way of dealing with it.

"If this prince is really the kind of person who is completely selfless, and only cares about rules and the interests of the empire, I don't dare to play with him.

You must know that the arms dealer is a person who takes the initiative to create turmoil and sells arms even if there is no turmoil.

If we want to mix well, we must form a huge interest group that integrates the army, arms companies, and some of the people in power in the country, and become a super military-industrial complex that no one can shake!

What unites these people is not a noble vision and ideal, but only interests.

Anyway, everyone is not a good person, and there is no room for any selfless saints. ”

glanced at Violet, who was more excited than him, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"Now the family's financial street and pioneer bank, which can make a lot of money, are given to my sister.

Sitting on the world's only online trading platform, it is not regulated by any country, and sooner or later it can become the world's leading rich person, and even the [financial queen] of the golden yuan sequence!

Now the industry and sales channels of this arms company are handed over to Violet, who aspires to become the first female pirate king.

The [War Witch] and [Arms Queen] of the Tower sequence sound very emotional.

With money bags and guns, plus the management system I built up with the [Ten Commandments of Pirates] and the [Golden Code], where is there any need to worry about big things? ”

The wind was howling in the sky, and Byron was a little energetic for a while.

The Solar Chariot flew extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it entered the interior and came to the sky above a huge mountain range.

The prince made a temporary cameo tour guide and enthusiastically introduced them to his hometown:

"This is the Ring of Fire Mountains, which are nearly 10,000 kilometers long, and within this mountain range there are dense and countless active and extinct volcanoes.

The main peak, Mount Aconcagua, is an extinct volcano with a height of 7,000 meters, and it is also one of the highest peaks in the Hundred Beasts Paradise.

And do you want to know where the countless amounts of gold in the hands of the Solar Empire come from?

If I didn't, you wouldn't have thought of it. ”

Speaking of which, it was mysteriously sold.

When the two of them pricked up their ears and looked at them with blazing eyes, they smiled a little proudly, made a gesture of fishing with their hands, and explained the confusion to these two "poor relatives":

"Haha, we fished all that gold out of the lava.

In addition to the melted rock, there are actually 20% of the magma made up of metals deep in the earth's crust.

The third-order [Lava Giant] can realize the fire elementalization and infiltrate the lava inside, fishing for all kinds of metals rich in it, iron, copper, lead, gold, silver, and everything.

Since the founding of the country, we, the gods, have been constantly fishing, and this thing will not rot, but will only accumulate more and more.

It took more than 1,000 years to accumulate to get to the current scale.

It's a pity that our Sun Empire only occupies less than one-third of the Fire Ring Mountain Range, and it can only be regarded as a corner of the entire Hundred Beast Paradise.

However, the crater here is actually enough for us to fish, and there is still a lot of surplus in a medium series, and what we lack is not a volcano but a high-quality population.

Anyway, there is never a shortage of gold in the magma, even if it is fished for another 10,000 years, it will not be able to be finished in 100,000 years. ”

"Hissβ€”β€”!"

Hearing this, Byron and Violet suddenly looked down at the huge volcanic mountain range, and their eyes burst out with infinite eagerness, which was immediately replaced by regret.

"I see, for them, the Sun God Descendants, the Ring of Fire Mountains are mountains of gold and silver.

And there is no fear of others coming to rob it at all, even if it is robbed, it is useless. ”

No wonder they are sitting on a treasure land, and they are not afraid of others watching at all, so they generously tell their secrets.

As long as you have studied geology, you know that the gold content on the surface of the planet is very small, and most of it is deep in the earth's crust or even the center of the earth.

As the internal movement of the planet intensifies, when the volcano accumulates enough energy, it will bring some rare substances from the ground to the surface.

Gold, for example.

They are mixed with volcanic lava and poured to the surface, and when cooled, they become gold-rich ores, which are the original gold ores, and then refined and processed to turn into brilliant gold.

The Sun Empire controls the countless volcanoes here, which is equivalent to the planet under their feet chasing them for food.

Those local tyrants who have mines and oil at home can't compare with big dogs like them who have mountains of gold and silver at home.

When you are short of money, jump down and get a handful, as long as you grab a handful, it is enough for an ordinary person to eat for half his life.

And if you think about the heavy metal content in the depths of the earth's crust, you can know that these mountains of gold and silver will never be exhausted, how can the gods of the Sun Empire be poor?

As for Atahualpa, he didn't even bother to fish for himself.

Let's take a look at myself who wants to break a copper plate into two halves in order to engage in industrial construction?

The eyes of the two men were red with envy, and their teeth were about to be crushed.

"Okay, okay, you're playing like this, aren't you?

Forced mining, which originally belonged to the secondary industry, to play the primary industry as the collection industry of the primary industry?

Then don't blame us for creating a trade deficit for your Sun Empire.

Wait, although these cuties are all your money now, they will all become our money one day! ”

The male and female thieves are ruthless, this time in the past, we must deeply explore the needs of customers, and make money ruthlessly!

Playing international trade well is much faster than directly grabbing money.

"Two, we're here."

The prince's voice woke the two of them.

Looking down, they had come to the sky above a majestic palace.

On the outskirts is a sprawling ring city built on the backs of extinct volcanoes, the hot spring city of Kajamaka, the capital of Kipchak Suyu.

The city is high and low, and the buildings are boxy, and it is a city on a hilltop.

In the middle of the ring is a large palace complex with a large area and the main body made of black basalt.

At night, the black basalt buildings not only did not blend into the night, but looked overly dark, but shone in the light of the fire.

All of these buildings were covered in gold leaf.

Gold and black, it looks particularly majestic, atmospheric, and rich!

"This"

Both of them were about to go numb when they watched.

Byron and Violet followed Atahualpa into the banquet's palace, a tall hall like a giant's dwelling.

Golden walls, golden roofs, golden floors, golden cutlery, and even solid gold dining tables and chairs.

Under the illumination of the many hanging fire elemental crystals, the banquet hall was as bright as day, and even a little stinging to the eyes.

"What is the charming eye of wealth, this is.

Fortunately, Catherine did not come, and if she had come with her, she would probably have been stuck here and would not be able to go back. ”

At this moment, even if Byron's [Logbook] concluded that something here was brass and not gold, he would probably not believe it.

Instead, you have to wonder if your gold finger is broken, or if you accidentally become a copper finger?

They sat on the east and west sides of the aisle through the golden paving aisle in the middle.

On one side were Byron and Violet, who shared a table, and on the other were Prince Atahualpa and his wives.

This prince is not only rich, but also envied and jealous of his wives and concubines.

The princess sitting beside him was only half a head shorter than him, tall and fit, with pale golden eyes, and long red hair like a raging flame.

The aura on her body was extremely powerful, and she sat there quietly like a blazing furnace, and she looked like a mighty female general.

Apparently he is also a fourth-order mythical creature [Child of the Sun].

The clothes on her body were shining gold, and it looked like they were woven from countless tiny gold threads, and although they were metal, she wore a kind of silk fabric softness.

Even the curves of the waist and abdominal muscles are perfectly outlined.

Coupled with the extremely high-quality gemstones, she is simply wearing a city.

"Lord of Heaven and Her Majesty the Queen, I am here to introduce you to the two of you, this is my princess and my sister Aya Kapak."

Byron didn't look much at it, but just praised it politely:

"Princess, your beauty shines as brightly as the sun."

I didn't find her identity strange.

Just look at the transcendent system that everything revolves around Inti, the sun god.

Spreading the branches, giving birth to more bloodline heirs, diluting the beast's nature, and stabilizing the anchor is one of the main tasks of these gods.

In fact, in order to maintain the purity of the blood of the royal family [Children of the Sun], the Sun Empire has obviously always retained the tradition of intermarriage.

The descendants of the sun god, especially the descendants of the royal family, generally marry many wives and have many, many children.

At the same time, in order to keep the empire in order, most of these wives are related sisters who share the blood of [Children of the Sun].

Of course, in addition to the wives with status, the noble gods of the empire also had an even larger number of concubines and female slaves.

Although the descendants of impure blood do not receive the title of prince, they are the source of the vast middle and lower nobility in the empire.

If these children could rely on the second-level bloodline and the Sun Sacred Scripture to climb up again through the three bloodline sublimation rituals, they would also be able to obtain extremely high status.

For example, Atahualpa's guard captain Kimchi Rocca is like this.

Knock knock knock

The musician beats the long drum.

A large group of beautiful and enchanting dancers dressed in gorgeous dance costumes rushed in and began to dance on the stage paved with pure gold.

The exotic dance is very pleasing to the eye, but Byron, who has a special fetish, only appreciates the art, and has no waves in his heart.

The eyes are more on their headwear, bracelets, anklets, rings, navel beads and other shiny jewelry.

Gold, mythril, pearls, coral, and all kinds of gemstones.

Moreover, this is just the dress of a slave girl, and the royal families of the Old World are simply a bunch of beggars compared to them!

Although it is called the Empire of the Sun, it is more like the Empire of Gold than Byron's own Divine Golden Empire.

No matter how tenacious he is, he can't help but feel a little frustrated.

"Come on, come on, Your Majesty the Lord of Heaven, Your Majesty the Queen, cheers, hurry up and taste the delicacies of our Sun Empire."

As the atmosphere heats up, Atahualpa holds up a beer-like drink brewed from corn and invites the two to join in.

It was only then that they finally discovered a new business opportunity.

There are a lot of ingredients on the table, such as corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and avocados, which are not much different from the types of crops in the Bantaan Islands.

Meats include roast alpacas, roast guinea pigs, and the turkey that Alfred first discovered and named after Cannibal Island.

Byron took a bite of the thing and fell silent, while Violet took a bite of the turkey leg and silently placed it on his plate.

"It makes sense that the ancestors of the big food country are strictly selected, some species have not been introduced by the ancestors, and the only drawback is that they are not delicious!"

It looks very sumptuous, and it is already a feast that the common people dare not imagine, but the taste is very ordinary, and the method is relatively monotonous.

Obviously, the fact that the Solar Empire, despite its abundance of gold, does not mean that it is also materially developed.

The upper and lower levels of drunken gold fans are probably completely two worlds.

In terms of agricultural production capacity alone, the two slash-and-burn empires on the Bantaan Islands are also limited.

Gold, on the other hand, is a general equivalent, and its value can only be reflected if it can be bought in sufficient quantities, and if nothing can be bought, it is just a beautiful metal.

Byron and Violet completed the spiritual fusion with a clear mind.

"You can't just look at the top, you have to look at the bottom with a population of 20 million.

So here is not too rich and lacks nothing, but everything. There is nothing here that is beyond the productive capacity of agricultural civilization. ”

"There is a lack of agricultural technology, a lack of ploughing cattle, a lack of the curved plough we just invented, and a lack of compost."

"The diet is also relatively monotonous, and there is a shortage of pigs, cows, sheep, ice cream, puffs, etc., and everything that can provide enjoyment is arranged."

"A group of sisters of the princess and prince should wear the most luxurious silk costumes."

"There is still a lack of porcelain at the banquet that is as smooth as a beauty's skin."

"A clock is installed in the hall, and a bell tower is built in the palace."

Of course, there are all kinds of luxury goods that do not pit the poor, giving them to the upper class to lead the fashion and inducing the middle class to chase fashion.

The same thing is divided into several versions, basic, pro, pro max, each version makes money once, and then you can happily cut the middle layer of leeks, and you can happily cut the middle layer of leeks."

They began to brainstorm, one by one, and the needs of the Solar Empire were explored deeper and deeper.

If there is no demand, they can also create demand, and then sell the goods to the Solar Empire.

At this point, my heart is a little more balanced.

It also strengthened their original intention of industrialization and the explosion of the world's material wealth.

We make such a big contribution to the world, and it makes a lot of sense to make a little money by the way, right?

The Sun Empire's huge gold is enough to cause a financial earthquake, and only with the powerful industrial capacity of the Golden Empire's Riptide Fortress can the most terrifying power erupt.

The banquet lasted until late at night.

Atahualpa, who was in high spirits and drank to his heart's content, lay in the arms of his sister Aya.

Pointing to the beautiful dancers who had been dancing for half the night in front of him, all of them were drenched in sweat, and said to Byron with drunken eyes:

"Your Majesty, when you go to rest later, bring whichever you like back to your room.

It's a welcome gift for you. ”

Blinking his eyes reveals a look that a man understands.

"Even if it's all of them.

I will be paid tribute every month, and although I am not transcendent, I am guaranteed that all of them are beautiful virgins. ”

Before Byron could react, the eyes of the twenty or so dancers lit up one by one.

watched him swallow subconsciously.

"Goo-dong!" "Goo-dong!"

Byron is not yet a fourth-order mythical creature.

But divinity, humanity, and animal nature walk on three legs, and each leg goes hand in hand, thick and long, and there is no shortcoming.

Just sitting there has an immovable, unblemished sense of fulfillment that has a strong attraction to them.

Subconsciously felt that if he could spring breeze for a while, his fate might be changed in an instant.

Obviously, the side effect of [Daredevil Prince] "boys must protect themselves when they go out" has flare up again.

The dancers are burning in their eyes, and they can't wait to beckon the sisters to rush up, taking turns to enjoy coughing and sleeping.

was so frightened that Byron was possessed by [Mr. No] on the spot, and rejected this proposition:

"No, no, no, thank you for your kindness, the Holy Gold Empire has its own national conditions here, I really don't need it."

Atahualpa glanced at Queen Violet, who was unchanged next to her, and nodded with a smile as if she had suddenly realized:

"Oh, I see. You must be worried that you will accidentally leave an heir and let the blood flow out, right? ”

He couldn't imagine that there was still monogamy in this world, and men could only marry one wife under normal circumstances.

I just thought that Byron was worried about the problems of future generations.

"No problem, I still have a baby here to give you peace of mind."

Bang bang bang

Before Byron could continue to resolutely refuse, the prince clapped his hands.

A maid came to him with a golden bowl in her hand.

At first, Byron thought that the contents of the golden bowl were lamb intestines soaked in advance with hot milk, which was also one of the most common contraceptive methods of this era.

But when he really saw what was inside, he couldn't help but stare at it, and then his eyes widened a little.

It turned out to be a thin, milky, translucent familiar thing.

Violet saw Byron staring straight at the thing, and her face couldn't help but flush slightly, and she wondered if she was a little incompetent as a partner.

"Should I take the initiative to find a few more sisters to help the Lancaster family?

Compared to the Capac family of the Sun Empire, Lancaster's bloodline is too thin.

Besides, in our family, we don't need contraception. ”

Then I heard Byron's forcibly suppressed voice of excitement:

"This is not sheep intestines, not fish bladders, this is natural rubber!

There was hope for the steam engine. ”

They got a series of whale oil technologies with the "Whale Oil Power Furnace" as the core from the mind of Pohnpei, the [father of sharks].

But today's power furnaces are too rudimentary and too inefficient.

Not to mention driving a battleship, even just driving a large machine is not enough.

Now, the Tower Sequence Transcendents all over the world are wrangling with each other on the Silver Law's "Key to All-Knowing" platform.

Debate the two subsequent R&D routes:

"One is the transcendent route, which develops the abundant essentia-driven alchemy machinery and various magic circles inside, but the disadvantage is that mortals can't use it, and it is difficult to promote it on a large scale."

"The other is a purely mechanical route, which is used to boil hot water! The threshold is extremely low, and it can be operated with a hand. ”

Who in the world knows how to boil hot water better than Byron?

And there are two lines of development in his head, two!

They are the steam engine and the internal combustion engine.

Whether it is a steam engine or an internal combustion engine, it is absolutely inseparable from such a good thing as rubber.

Taking the steam engine as an example, as a mechanical energy conversion equipment, it uses steam as the power source to complete the energy conversion through the continuous change of moving parts.

Rubber can play a role in sealing, shock absorption, noise reduction and so on.

Especially the most important sealing function.

The exhaust and inlet pressures of the steam engine are very high, and the cylinders need to be tightly sealed to prevent steam leakage.

Due to its excellent elasticity and sealing properties, rubber is widely used in the sealing of cylinder heads and cylinder doors in steam engines.

Even in Byron's previous life, natural rubber was one of the most versatile basic industrial products, which shows its superior properties.

"What kind of contraceptive tool can this kind of baby use, the whale oil steam engine is the stage that can make it shine!"
