MC's career as foreign lord

Chapter 251 Forging

The electricity generated by Lin Ye's plant model is actually more of an energy storage mode. It can only pass through pipes that don't belong to Lin Ye, and the actual throughput rate is not high, and the success rate is very low.

But now it's completely different. The generators from the industrial age will inevitably completely replace Lin Ye's position, and these wires can be completely immersed in the sky, without the need for utility poles to support them one by one as in reality.

Most of the wires can even take this opportunity to go underground, leaving only beautiful props on the ground, and all the pipes are buried under the ground, becoming a part of the entire underground infrastructure.

This is one of the best industrial models he imagined, and it is also the goal and opportunity for Zhou Ren to work hard for.

Speaking of which, the reason why rubber is needed is actually more because of the industrial manufacturing properties and insulation properties of rubber itself. That's right, after the industrial age comes out, electricity will become another great skill of the territory.

This special attribute, which can be guided through wires and even prevent changes and use, will occupy a large position in the future development of the territory.

"If it really doesn't work, the nuclear power plant can be placed in the Nether!" Zhou Ren said. This is one of the things he was thinking about. For highly polluting things like nuclear power plants, placing them in the uninhabited Nether seems like a good choice, and then transmitting them through future glass wires can also prevent the loss of electricity.

Zhou Ren shook his head with a smile. He realized that he was thinking too far ahead. He had only just built the wires, and he had already thought about the situation when the industry was in its final stages.

Thinking about these things is really too early. In fact, it's not very meaningful. He should first make things like insulated wires before talking about it.

In fact, the biggest special attribute of industrial wires is that they can directly cause damage through electric current. This damage is not particularly exaggerated, but it is powerful and surging enough.

At least an ordinary Steve would lose half a tube of blood from this. If he gets hit twice, he will lose a life directly. In order to prevent this kind of special accident from happening in the territory, he has to do this thing as well as possible.

The method to prevent electric shock is actually very simple, and the difficulty of making it is simply non-existent, that is, to make insulated wires through the effect of rubber.

In the past, in order to save rubber, most of the areas used non-insulated metal wires. Every time he passed through the industrial area, he felt like he was carrying out a special agent mission. He needed to avoid all the wires he could avoid, and he had to hold food in his hand, ready to replenish his health at any time, otherwise he would really be dead.

If the things on his body accidentally fall off for some reason, then half a day's work will be wasted. That would not be so good.

So later, he basically made up his mind and didn't indulge himself because of his own reasons. It's okay to spend more time and plant more trees, isn't it good?

A large amount of rubber gave him the confidence to re-start this construction, and while the rubber was being burned in the furnace, he was also doing other things, such as...

"Ordinary metal grades can't be used to make pipelines well through smelting furnaces. And now, the materials in my hand can't make a metal forming machine at all."

Zhou Ren said, to make pipelines, you also need a special tool, which is the special tool called a forging hammer.

The forging hammer can successfully hammer the metal block that has been calcined into a flat plate, which can be used to assemble those special tools, or to make some special items. In fact, the effect should be very good.

In addition to the forging hammer, of course, there are also tools similar to it, that is, the plate cutting scissors that re-cut the metal plate forged by the forging hammer into a pipeline.

Zhou Ren suddenly had a good idea. If he let the dwarves come here to swing their hammers, would it reduce the residual use of items? Could a metal cube be made into 4 plates?

He never lacked manpower when he thought about it, so why not let the idle dwarves join the territory to relieve their worries? These underground creatures are considered diligent and conscientious here. In addition to helping the territory build items for free, their own mine construction and the quota from the Nether make them work hard as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Presumably, the lord should not refuse to ask them to build something, right?

Zhou Ren thought so, and planted another batch of rubber saplings, waiting for them to grow on their own. While the sun had not yet set, he took the hydro elevator all the way down, almost passing through the crowded market and the bustling shopping mall, as well as the restaurant, and came to the dwarf workshop where there were few people, but many bigwigs.

As a well-known workshop on the mainland, this place can be said to be famous. After all, the various tools and weapons produced here are the best on the entire continent. They can be praised by anyone and amazed by everyone.

And this area is often visited by all kinds of people. Moreover, due to the purchase settings and the territory, even the dwarves will not entertain those guests here. They will find a particularly good house in the market, put some gold coins as rent, and then take their guests to live or wait there.

The cooperation between the territory and the dwarves is actually very interesting. They do not cooperate rigidly or have some other contracts, but simply classify the material production and sales into three parties.

For example, the territory that provides materials gets a fixed 40% of the income, while the dwarves who forge get the remaining 40%, and the final 20% of the sales is left to the sales counters and those who sell them.

In this way, it can also avoid some conflicts caused by uneven distribution of spoils to the greatest extent. At least, their cooperation is relatively pleasant, and no problems have arisen because of this.

What's more, with the strength of the territory, he only needs to do the most basic fairness and justice to solve most of the problems. After all, no matter from what perspective, they are actually indifferent.

As long as the territory firmly controls the dominant power, they cannot have any turmoil or risks.

Because the territory holds the greatest profit and the highest right of interpretation, they can make the dwarves unable to speak most of the time.

The dwarves might dare to confront those higher races, and might even dare to argue with those customized legends, but they didn't seem to have the courage to speak their minds in front of a lord who seemed like a god.

So, Zhou Ren also enjoyed a rare moment of tranquility and nature when he arrived in the territory. Although the dwarves respected their lord, they wouldn't blindly follow him. When they saw the lord, they would simply nod as a sign of respect and then continue with their own tasks.

However, this was only the reaction of ordinary dwarves. When he passed through this passage and arrived at the area in front of the passage, which was an area for other races or outsiders to visit, the scene seemed to change somewhat.

After all, the dwarves were used to the lord's presence. They remembered that when they were making firearms before, he would come every two or three days and stay for a long time. So, they were quite familiar with him.

But for the outsiders in the territory, or those who wanted to come and buy firearms, although they knew the lord's appearance by heart, after all, Zhou Ren's face was engraved on the gold coins they had just traded, it was impossible for them not to have any reaction in their hearts.

In the beginning, they didn't have such a reaction, because only the appearance was confirmed. But without confirming the true identity, no one dared to risk the world's disapproval. However, the dwarf patriarch Moradin didn't seem to notice this. After seeing Zhou Ren, he happily went up to greet him, calling him Lord.

As soon as he said this, things blew up. After all, being recognized by the patriarch was almost equivalent to acknowledging this lord. Zhou Ren shook his head helplessly.

Almost all eyes turned towards them, which made Moradin belatedly realize that it was not appropriate for him to shout like that.

But things had already become like this, and of course, it was impossible to undo it casually. Zhou Ren could only put on a smile and talk to those who wanted to greet him one by one.

Those who came over were all buying goods, so naturally, they didn't have any particularly subtle thoughts. So, their exchanges were relatively normal.

But this also wasted a lot of Zhou Ren's time. He had to spend two hours to resolve all the matters here before he could continue his own affairs. He even stayed and had a meal with the dwarves.

And Moradin seemed to be expressing his guilt, so he was very proactive in helping him solve all these problems, such as wanting some outstanding dwarven craftsmen.

This has to mention the increase in the manufacturing industry in the territory, which can be said to be very strong and very terrifying. The underground dwarf clan, which originally only had three forging masters, now has more than 10 forging masters.

This is a very terrifying number. You should know that it is not certain whether those surface dwarf kingdoms have so many forging masters.

Although forging masters do not necessarily mean legendary powerhouses, every legendary powerhouse must be a forging master. This also means that becoming a forging master is the only way to cross the threshold into legend. In the eyes of others, this means that the entire underground dwarf clan has at least 10 quasi-legends.

This number is already quite terrifying. The entire group is almost equivalent to most of the combat power of a small country. Even if this dwarf clan returns to the underground, back to the gloomy region filled with harsh terrain, it is enough to make other races retreat.

No one wants to take the lead in dealing with a race that has a future, unless they are mortal enemies. And when the rise of a race is unstoppable, others are willing to give a little sweetness.

At least when there is no conflict between the two sides, the stronger the other party, the more benefits they can get. This is inherently complementary.

And when Zhou Ren said that he needed some dwarven craftsmen, the patriarch immediately said that all the blacksmiths of the entire dwarf clan could be chosen by him.

Even at the moment he spoke, several forging masters had arrived. They even put down their work in order to leave a good impression on the lord.

Zhou Ren waved his hand. He didn't need any particularly high-level professional skills, nor did he need the creative abilities of these masters. He only needed a few coolies who could hammer metal. Calling them masters was too wasteful.

So, he quickly completed his actions and did not proceed with his previous plans. Instead, he quickly changed to another topic. Originally, he still had the need for two masters, but now thinking about it, it seems that there is no need for them at all.

He wanted two masters to create some special industrial items for him, but now he hasn't even figured out the industry itself. Thinking about it, it seems like there is no point in wasting manpower.

"They still have their own forging tasks, right?" Zhou Ren asked. He clearly saw that these people had put down their work, which meant that these people actually had their own tasks. He was a little embarrassed to take away their time all at once.

"Your needs are the top priority for everyone in the territory!" Moradin said. He said this very sincerely. After all, for him, the entire dwarf clan was rescued from the ground by Zhou Ren.

So, they hardly received any rewards for doing any construction for the entire territory, or rather, they actively requested to receive rewards. Generally, they would only accept them if the territory took the initiative to give them.

Zhou Ren nodded, "I know what you mean, but in fact, I don't need so many masters. Look, there are so many people waiting outside. It's not good to keep them waiting, is it?"

He turned around and persuaded the dwarf patriarch, "You don't actually need to be so cautious. After all, there is nothing for you to worry about too much. I'm just looking for some people who can help me. Let them stay, you send a team of sincere and obedient young dwarves to follow me!"

He looked at the old dwarf who still seemed to have something to say, and his eyes widened!

"Alright, just do as I say! You don't need to do too much. I'm already very satisfied that you can do this!"

He waved all the dwarves back to their jobs, and then nodded to the various merchants who were watching from the side, "Let's go, find some young people!"
