I traveled through time and became the Lord of Natural Disaster

Chapter 160 Craftsman
With the support of the kindergarten, Bob sold his boat directly and bought a cement boat.

His boldness surprised Abu a little. A brand-new cement boat was delivered to Bob. Abu didn't forget to tell him, "Remember those broken sailboats? If you can, you can sail out of the port. At that time, remember to tow out a few ships to Xiaoshuiwan."

Bob is also a shrewd person. He frowned and said: "The coal is also a problem if it is towed out. You know, the power of the cement ship comes from coal."

"I can pay you. One boat costs 35 sidds, which is definitely a bargain." Abu offered a pretty good price.

"Then I have to pick some good ones to tow, don't give me those that have sunk, it will make my new boat go wrong." Bob didn't look very satisfied, "Don't take my boat The steam engine is broken, and you know it's worth three thousand sid."

"I know, I know. In this way, one will give you 40 Sid. There is really no way to go any higher. You can drag out five for me. How about it?" The strength of a cement ship is much greater than that of a sailboat. , towing five normal sailboats is not a problem at all.

When it came to the right price, Bob reluctantly said: "Okay, then I will start tomorrow, and by the way, see if the cement ship can run normally."

"Hehe, don't worry, old man, I won't sell ships with problems, even those sailboats, I will only sell them after they have been repaired." Abu patted Bob on the shoulder, "I will pay the fee. Call your account before Wednesday, you know, you can check it at any time in the chamber of commerce."

Bob didn't expect that the business would be so cost-effective. Not only could he choose five suitable ships, but he could also get a commission from Abu.

Don't tell your old buddy Pruto about this matter, otherwise he will be angry and blackmail himself for a few drinks.

In the forum, players were already stunned by the high price of the ship. Everyone thought that the cargo ship would be expensive, but they didn't expect it to be so expensive.

Elder Zhong Shan: But the price is really not too high. Our steel production is limited. If we want to increase the steel production for shipbuilding, the cost alone will increase to more than 7000 sidds. case of ore.

If we don't have iron ore, the cost of the ore will increase a little bit more, plus production and forging, it's not too much to charge 20000 Sid.

If our own production is so expensive, the sales of the Church of Wisdom will be even higher. Don’t forget that a harvester costs thousands of Sid. Although it is expensive, one machine can harvest all the fields in Tana City. Three crops a year, calculated in this way, the nobles will not feel that they are losing money, but on the contrary feel that they are making money.

If it is to make sailboats, we don't have suitable wood in our hands, and the wood in the coking plant doesn't have time to dry, let alone shipbuilding.

That's really a century of voyages.

The Wind Does Not Stop: After only half a year of accumulation, we can try the cement ship, and I think the brick factory can also start firing cement.We need a lot of limestone, and there is no shortage of such things around Tana City.

Yun Xiao: If you want to do it, we can invest some money in and let Fortune Church find us a suitable mine.

Zhu Guli: We must first have a steam engine, or fuel power, so the question is, where do we have oil?

Elder Zhong Shan to Zhu Guli: My suggestion is to start with a steam engine first, or to overtake directly on a curve and use electric power. In short, Tana City does not have so many resources. At least I think it is unlikely that there is a mineral such as oil here.

From a geographical point of view, it is true that Tana City does not have the possibility of having oil.

Therefore, players can only honestly start manufacturing steam engines.

While those wooden boats were being dragged back, the players began to produce steam engines. The structure of this thing was complicated, if not complicated, but it required a lot of materials.

Looking at the blueprint in his hand, Rhett Wynn looked dazed. He didn't understand why these Xiahui people built such a thing. It was heavy and bulky, and it seemed useless.

This is not armor, it is obviously some kind of machinery, and it seems to be related to power.

It is also more complicated to build, and even the data needs to be precise.

The little apprentices like him were all shirtless and beating vigorously, while the old man Zhong Shan on the side was watching all the time, for fear that something might go wrong.

With so much steel to make, it was obvious that these HAVI guys were going to make something amazing.

"Don't worry, I will tell you what you want to know. This is a kind of technological progress." Unlike the Church of Wisdom, players have no reason to hide it from others. After all, for players, higher-tech things are not without .

So for something like a steam engine, the old man Zhong Shan couldn't wait to give Reid the blueprint directly, and then he simply ignored it.

"I know, I mean, this is simply a miracle. I can probably see that this is a big guy that pushes the machine through heat. Where are you going to use it? Industrial machinery, or a ship?" Reid shook Shaking his head, "You have to know that if it is something made by the Church of Wisdom, there will be some runes, but you don't have any on this machine."

"Runes?" Elder Zhong Shan gasped, "That is to say, will the machine be more powerful after adding runes?"

"I'm not sure about this, but runes are a must. A lot of machine maintenance also requires people from the Church of Wisdom to draw the runes again. I don't know the specifics. After all, I am not a member of the Church of Wisdom. "Red said embarrassingly, "But your machine is completely the crystallization of wisdom. How should I put it, this is the real machine."

Indeed, this thing was originally a real machine.

"I mean, if, if the Artisan Church sees your machine, it will definitely mock the Wisdom Church. After all, this thing is purely mechanical." The more Rhett said, the more excited he became, "But I am not a craftsman. People in the church, their income system is very strict, and most people have no way to become a real craftsman."

There is even a craftsman church.

No one mentioned this in the capital. Mr. Ye has been in the capital for so long, and he has never seen news about the Artisan Church in the newspapers.

"Looking at you, you should have never heard of it? It's not surprising. The Artisan Church is now called the Craftsmanship Association, which is responsible for the patent application of the manufacturer, but most of the time, the applicants are members of the Wisdom Church. Over time With the passage of time, the Crafts Association no longer has the missionary nature, and they are more cooperative with the Wisdom Church and become a vassal of the Wisdom Church." Reid said with some regret, "But they accept apprentices every year, that is, after they exceed 25 No more."

It can be seen that Rhett is brooding about this matter.

Also, as a blacksmith, even if he is not a believer of a craftsman, he still expects a craftsman to lead him.

At the same time, it is impossible for the Church of Wisdom to produce products by itself, they need the assistance of craftsmen.

Unexpectedly, while other churches were busy preaching, the Artisan Church was shrinking its own church.

Even directly become a vassal of the Wisdom Church.

The old man Zhong Shan decided to open a separate post about this matter, maybe he will find some useful plots.

"In any case, I think this is a masterpiece. After all, you can create such a miraculous item without the help of wisdom. What should I call it?" Reid looked at the blueprint and said a little excitedly.

"It's the engine, um, the steam engine, you reminded me, maybe we can submit a patent." Although submitting a patent will allow others to discover this engine and imitate it.

But for players, this is not a problem.

Besides, the Wisdom Church may not be able to see this thing.

I just don't know how to apply.

It seems that I have to go to the brothers of Fortune Church again for help.

……

The journey back was quite smooth. The voyage, which was originally scheduled to arrive in three days, actually took three days to complete a round trip.

Because when they came back, there was no cargo on board, so the speed was not so fast.

This batch of goods was also sold at a good price in the port city. A batch of wrought iron and a batch of handicrafts earned a total of 800 Sid. If you don't circle around, even if you buy a sailing boat, you may be able to recover the cost in half a year.

Of course, this does not mean that this price can be maintained forever, so the players still chose to drag these repairable ships back cautiously to see if they can be used again.

At the same time, players will manufacture some cement ships or steel ships, which may be sold directly in the future.

The towed ships were quickly reported by the local newspapers in Tana City, and the nobles were the first to receive the news.

These Xiahui people actually bought a batch of ships for transportation directly from the port city.

If the goods are transported from the port city, although it will be slower, the cost will be lower.

As a result, there were more representatives of nobles in Andrew's office.

"I heard that you bought a batch of boats. I don't know if you need crews. We also have a batch of former fishermen here. These serfs are not good at farming, but it shouldn't be a problem to sail the boat." Bruce from the Fortune Church He began to sell serfs, "Those nobles dislike these serfs and can't farm land, so I can sell them to you at a lower price."

"If you need goods, we have a batch, and we have our own warehouse, you just need to transport it, you don't even need your help to move it, we have enough serfs. Yes, just give them a A small cabin is enough, and one transport can give you 25 Sid, which is definitely a bargain!"

"I don't know if you are willing to open a flight from Tana City to other Rilnas. It only needs to go around the sea. We can charter a boat for 50 Sid once!"

"How much do you charge for transporting goods to Bumble? We have a large amount of grain to be transported to Bumble..." said a gentleman. Sid's price, as long as it can get this grain to Bumble."

I didn't expect the port to be reopened so easily. This is also due to the increase in the price of the railway. Although the ship is slower, compared with the railway, the price advantage has increased a lot.

Especially since not so many regions have railroads.

Zhu Guli: After consulting with Bob and Brutal, I found that our port is really useful. Think about it, the water system of the entire Federation is fairly developed. Whether it is inland transportation or sea transportation, it can reach There are more regions than trains.For example, the city of miracles, Rielna, has a large amount of coral and gold products, and is the most developed area for the federal gold product trade, but there is no direct train route to Tana City.If you want to go to Rielna, you must first go to the capital, and then take the special ship from the royal capital to Rielna. It costs 100 Sid to go there... If there are more people, the price will be higher.

Old man Zhong Shan: If we can build a steel ship, the time will be reduced a lot. The river in Tana City is still very deep, and it is not a problem to run a -ton cruise ship.

Some players have already started throwing maps on the forum, and then began to study the water system and road network of Tana City.

It has to be said that the next batch of translation-type players brought a large number of research-oriented players to this game. These new players have made outstanding contributions in this update, and Chen Zhi is a little ready to move.

It's a pity that he can't stretch his hand too far. He can at most observe the surrounding area of ​​Tana City, which is 30 kilometers away from the port city. As for Gannar, he has not been able to reach it. A few more villages on the road can be monitored.

However, he felt that if the players could find some unusual magical items and devour them by themselves, they might be able to monitor more places.

At that time, even if he stays at home, he can see what the capital looks like and why the barbarians always attack Tana City.

At the same time, the kindergarten finally edited its own post and posted it.

The whole picture of the port city finally appeared in front of everyone. Chen Zhi also edited a video with the help of the other party's eyes. people have darker skin.

However, compared with Tana City, it is not as lively here. After all, the port city is just a transit port. Compared with Tana City, it is even closer to the border coastline, and 60 kilometers further north is another country.

Zhu Guli: Damn, I now know why the kindergarten let me edit the posts casually, because I think the content of my edited posts is not rich enough, right?
Kindergarten: Because I went to the bar at night to inquire about a lot of news, why, about the news about the Church of Storms, can you have a more comprehensive understanding than me?
