Almighty Lord: I can modify hidden entries

With an appropriation of 200,000 gold, if he hadn't built a smelting plant, he would have been able to collect 30,000 to 40,000 pounds of manganese steel in two months.

But now...he is sure to eat the two hundred thousand!

Knowing the upper limit of the other party's budget, Gudern made it clear without hiding it.

"Okay, since the military department needs manganese steel, I will do my best to help. In this way, in one month, you ask the military transport team to come to Qingyuan Town, and I will definitely arrange the 200,000 gold manganese steel."

"Okay, as expected...eh? Wait? A month later?!"

Walsh, who didn't react for a moment, was stunned in place after hearing clearly.

Did he hear it right just now? Gooden actually said that he would deliver 200,000 gold worth of manganese steel in one month...

"Baron Gooden, are you kidding me?"

Taking a deep breath, Walsh asked with a look like you're kidding me.

"No, let's do it like before. Draw up a contract. If we can't get the same amount of manganese steel in one month, the price of manganese steel will be calculated based on two gold."

This guarantee made Walsh feel a little unconfident. If the price was two gold, Gooden would have to prepare 100,000 pounds of manganese steel, which was a full 40,000 pounds more than the price of three gold.

This kind of joke is not casual, but since Gudern is confident in taking this order, as the person in charge, he is also happy to see it.

Then I took out the contract and started filling in the details to prepare the contract.

After the two briefly discussed some details, they signed their names and seals as a voucher.

For an order of 200,000 yuan, in addition to the normal payment of iron and charcoal, Gooden also requested a large amount of silver and copper ingots, and purchased an additional 50,000 gold of magic metal.

Fifty thousand gold of magic metal can only buy less than one kilogram of magic metal.

Of course, what Gudern purchased was a type with fairly good performance. If he wanted to replace it with a lesser magic metal, he would probably be able to buy about 20 to 30 kilograms at most.

The reason why magic metal is so expensive is that it is difficult to form and only requires a little bit to use it.

For example, the mithril staff given to him by Moss weighs about half a kilogram, but the main structure is not made of pure mithril, but is made of harder and more expensive silver iron.

There are only a few grams of mithril at most, which is used to block corrosion and accelerate the circulation of elements.

The magic metal he purchased is intended to be used in some magic components that require long-term operation. Less than one kilogram of magic metal is enough to be used for a long time.

The plan to buy magic metal has been prepared for a long time, but unfortunately the wallet is not enough. Now that there is an order from the military department, Gudern simply proposed it together.

After completing the signing of the contract, Gooden arranged for people to take Walsh to rest and entertain him.

After all, when you come to Qingyuan Town, you still have to be well entertained, and the maintenance of interpersonal relationships is still very necessary.

Afterwards, Gooden called Old Joseph and asked him to notify the manganese steel smelting plant and let them use all their firepower to complete the work within three days.

He gave the military a month just to avoid shocking them too much.

According to the current output, 60,000 to 70,000 pounds of manganese steel is only less than thirty tons. According to the performance of the smelting plant, this smelting task is simply trivial.

He even said that if Gudern was really in a hurry, he would ask the smelting workers to work overtime so that this amount of manganese steel could be completed tomorrow morning.

However, Gooden, who has suffered from overtime work, still rarely allows urban residents to work overtime wages. Even if there is emergency construction and construction work, it is three shifts.

Of course, except for the group of completely obsessed research enthusiasts at the institute, Gudern has repeatedly ordered them to pay attention to rest, but the situation of overtime work has not ended...

Chapter 126 Elemental Mage, Rumors

Problems with the Institute Although Gooden can use strong tactics to impose a ban.

But now that Qingyuan Town is still in a weak stage, he has not lost his mind and cut off his own development for the sake of some so-called human rights.

As a lord, he can only try his best to improve the welfare benefits for those participating in the research.

From being able to eat enough in the past, to being able to eat well, to being able to use crystal sugar, fine salt and other items that only the rich can enjoy.

Now, being able to live in a large bungalow, enjoy the convenience brought by various advanced equipment, and look forward to a better future is what he has tried his best to bring.

As for shouting the slogan that everyone is equal?

He's not that stupid yet. Wouldn't it be nice to enjoy the treatment brought by the lord now?

Gudern does not think that he is a noble and selfless person. Now he can arrange suitable working hours and better benefits for the people in his territory. What he is doing now can at best ensure his clear conscience.

After disposing of the documents just delivered, Gooden went to the institute to check the latest research progress of each department.

The weapons research department has already inspected it and is now working hard to explore in the direction he proposed. This time, we will focus on taking a look at the research status of other departments.

In the current institute, in addition to the weapons research department that brings together nearly half of the manpower, there are four remaining operating departments.

One is to study magic vehicles, the second is to study rail trains, the third is to study mechanical power technology, and the fourth is to conduct fusion and expansion research on the magic array structure.

In addition to the remaining four separate independent project studies, the latter two are departments after the integration of other original departments. One department needs to promote multiple types of research.

Arriving at the institute's base, Gooden went straight to the research building of the vehicle research department.

In the conference room on the first floor, staff from the other three departments happened to be here, as if they were discussing how to solve the problem together.

Since the two projects of magic vehicles and rail trains are separate research tasks, the supporting research relies on the two departments of mechanical power and magic research. Therefore, when the research encounters difficulties, several departments will cooperate with each other to overcome the problems.

Stepping into the conference room, everyone saw the young master's arrival and stood up to signal.

"Master."

Gudern nodded slightly, then waved his hand.

"Sit down and continue the meeting. I'll listen to what the problem is."

With that said, Gooden found an empty seat and sat down. As the head of the four departments on the stage, Eden nodded and continued to speak.

"That's it for the general design issues of the upgraded model of the magic truck and the new off-road pickup truck. The main issues still require help from the mechanical power department. The magic research department is responsible for solving some functional equipment."

"Let's talk about the train issues. The first one is the problem of the power train set. The city wall rail line requires thrust from both mechanical and magical power. The magic aspect can be solved easily, but the mechanical power needs to be worked hard. pull."

"The focus is on being compact and ensuring that it can pull more than one ton of cargo on half a meter of rail, while the speed must not be less than 30 kilometers per hour."

"It is difficult to complete this work with the current steam power structure. How far has the research work on special engines advanced now?"

"It's stuck on accuracy issues. There are no problems with other parts. It's just that during forging, there will be problems with the accuracy of some parts, resulting in the running time not meeting the requirements or being unable to start."

The members of the mechanical power research team who specially designed this part stood up and explained, and then continued.

"Currently, the forging department has been asked to build a batch of them, select a set of suitable parts, and complete the first batch of experimental work first."

Eden was obviously not satisfied with this issue.

"We can ask the forging department to create the best parts for the experimental version, but what about small-scale production later? We can't let the forging department do it, right?"

"The accuracy problem is not enough, so we can improve the accuracy so that normal precision components can also meet the power requirements. Key tasks that cannot be handled by me can be applied for and I will be responsible for them."

"yes."

Silently listening to the discussion in the audience, Gudern was also thinking about how to solve it.

He had put the train on his construction list early on, as a fixed transport vehicle with a huge cargo capacity.

It's just that the time is not ripe now, so he can only postpone the construction. However, he found a place on the city wall where he can accumulate experience.

A section of the city wall is a full 1.6 kilometers long. If you walk in a circle for normal patrol, it will be more than six kilometers. If you go around in a circle for daily training, it will be fine.

But when it comes to preparing for combat, the soldiers below also have to run in a circle, which consumes a lot of physical energy.

Moreover, some heavy weapons will inevitably be installed on the city walls in the future, and it will be difficult to pull them by manpower alone.

Therefore, at the beginning of the design of the city wall, Gudern set aside a half-meter rail line and planned to build a mini-rail on the city wall for rapid transfer and transportation of goods.

Moreover, the construction experience of this section can also be used to accumulate experience for laying longer railway tracks in the future.

But now it seems that there are only a few minor problems with the research on the mini train power unit.

At the beginning of the design of the train power unit, Gooden set a design rule that the power source could not be just a single mechanical structure or a magical structure.

He needs to use both power groups and be able to switch between them at will.

After all, one more kind of power supply means one more kind of guarantee. In the equipment of this kind of military equipment, more and more comprehensive considerations need to be considered.

If you just use one kind of power for propulsion, it would be embarrassing if something goes wrong at a critical moment and you fall down.

In such a 'narrow' place with city walls, it would be embarrassing if the train got stuck on its side.

The dual power configuration ensures that when any engine unit fails, it can continue to move.

Even with the simultaneous blessing of dual power, it can explode with higher power for operation.

After thinking for a moment, Gooden interrupted.

"As for the issue of train power, we don't need to focus solely on the steam power unit. We can focus on the internal combustion engine. The energy operation of the steam engine is very compact..."

As Gooden spoke, he also began to briefly describe some characteristics and research ideas of internal combustion engines.

The explanation lasted for almost ten minutes. After the researcher took notes one by one, Gooden returned the meeting to Eden to continue.

The content of the following meeting will roughly revolve around the research and development of various small components, and at the same time, let the magic research structure department complete the loss test of new components as soon as possible.

The meeting ended quickly. After answering everyone's questions and giving guidance, Gooden went to the Magic Research Department to perform guidance tasks.

The Magic Research Department is a special department where ordinary people study magical structures.

The people in this department are all good candidates to become magicians in the future.

Although they are still ordinary people now, they can still make modifications if they understand the structural operation of the magic array and some magic rules.

After all, with the help of magic burning equipment, even if they cannot control the elements, they can still control this energy with the help of external forces.

The Magic Research Department has the smallest number of people in the institute. Due to the particularity and abstract nature of magic, those selected to join this department must be literate and must pass a special test before joining.

There are only fifteen people in a department, including four children, the youngest of whom is only nine years old.

It is worth mentioning that one of these four children is Eileen's sister, Amy.

It was somewhat surprising that Amy could pass the screening of the Magic Research Department.

But after looking at each other's panels, I realized that neither of the sisters was an ordinary person.

Coming to the study room of the Magic Research Department, four children who were studying by themselves were sitting quietly at the table studying.

Gudern turned his attention to Amy and displayed the panel.
