Duke of Grief

Calvin and Gregory had assembled the steam locomotive model for a long time, and they looked very greasy. Their hands were full of oil stains left by adding lubricant to the locomotive model. Even though they had already rolled up their sleeves, they looked luxurious. The extraordinary dresses were also stained with oil droplets, and if they were not cleaned up by magic, their dresses would be useless.

Caesar XIII watched with interest, but the other big nobles did not have as much interest.

"Isn't it alright?" a big noble snorted. "Can this kind of thing be the key to changing the world? Huh, it's ridiculous!"

"You have wasted a lot of our time..." A large and noble-looking aristocrat touched his long beard, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to show some displeasure.

Calvin raised his hand and wiped the sweat on his head. The greasy hand touched his forehead and hair, and he answered without lifting his head: "It's almost done!"

His appearance even made several big nobles frown, if not for their calm temperament, fast movement and'elegant' Gregory maintained the most basic decent for them, I am afraid that the big nobles will soon Just say "no".

The nobles did not like Calvin and Gregory, not only because they were new nobles, but also because their work looked ‘dirty’ and ‘very inelegant’.

But Caesar XIII was the opposite, not to mention that the new aristocracy was originally supported by him. Although it has only a development history of more than ten years, his pragmatic spirit is what he most gratified him. of.

There are a lot of new nobles supported, but Gregorian and Calvin not only have talents, they are also very pragmatic, even after they have the conditions to enjoy life, they still have not given up their ideals-this is Caesar X. The new nobleman in the mind of the Third World!

He is not only observing the steam locomotive model, but also looking at Gregory and Calvin. The more he looks, the more satisfied he is. It is worthy of him being pulled up with one hand.

"call……"

Taking a deep breath, regardless of the greasiness of his hands, Calvin straightened up and thumped his sore waist with his hands. His subconscious movements again gave the big nobles a bad impression.

Unlike Calvin, Gregory took off two gloves that were once white from his hand, folded them neatly, and stuffed them in a cloth bag. Then he took out the handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead and neck.

It was sweaty too, but Gregory looked much more elegant than Calvin.

Calvin's approach can be said to be "informal", but in the eyes of the big nobles, he can be said to be "cheap bones".

If you don’t enjoy life like a nobleman, you have to fiddle with these greasy and dirty things. If it’s not cheap, what is it?

Although the other person looks elegant, it just looks elegant, in fact it is the same as the person next to it!

Calvin felt the gaze of several great aristocrats and grinned unconsciously.

"Humph..." The two nobles groaned softly.

There were only a few of them in this empty hall, and it was very quiet. Even if it was just a hum, Calvin heard it clearly.

But instead of feeling embarrassed, he was still complacent.

They didn't prepare a model before. This model was also created temporarily. It took him one night. If it wasn't for drinking energy potions this morning to force him to recover, he should still be lying in bed and crying for a headache.

Caesar XIII did not leave, and these big nobles naturally could not move.

The two of them caused several big nobles to sit here for more than ten minutes. The big nobles must have seen them unhappy.

There are many contradictions between the new aristocracy and the old aristocracy, and as the ministers of the two major technical departments of the empire, the budget has been stuck in the hands of these old aristocracy. They have been unhappy for a long time.

Although this matter was proposed by Calvin, how could he show the model here without Gregorian's default?

"Allow me to explain to you the model we have brought here." Gregoire leaned slightly and sent a request to Caesar XIII.

At this time, Calvin stepped aside. He was not good at speaking and he didn't like to explain anything. Afterwards, he still had to fight with the nobles reasonably, and that was not what he was good at.

As the minister of the R&D department of the Empire, he only needed to hand in the plan to His Majesty the Emperor, and let him approve the project. He didn’t need to deal with the old nobles, but Gregorian’s manufacturing department was different. 'Research and development' requires money as long as it is manufactured. Although the things produced by the manufacturing department can be used for budget, compared with the huge demand of the entire empire, no matter how hard it is to produce, it is difficult to meet, then more is needed at this time. Of the budget is invested in production.

To this end, Gregory needed to deal with the old nobles, and it was more appropriate for him to deal with the negotiations.

Caesar XIII raised his chin and motioned for Gregorian to continue.

Gregory fell back again, "This model is a product of a one-to-fifth scale reduction of the actual product, but since we cannot manufacture a steam engine that is too small, we now use magic power as a power source to replace the steam engine-driven locomotive model."

Caesar XIII listened straight and nodded. Although he didn't understand too much, he believed that Gregorian and Calvin would not let him down. What they need now is his support.

"I don't have much to say, even if my tongue is clever, you adults will not believe my empty words. Without saying anything, Calvin, let's demonstrate it first."

Gregorian, who was born in the Cavaliers family, has not learned to speak, but he often dealt with the old nobles. He knows that these big nobles are tired now, and they need to attract their attention with something more ‘interesting’.

Calvin launched the locomotive model. After the runes in the model were provided with magic power, the axles began to rotate. As the magic input increased, the wheels of the locomotive model were also driven to push the locomotive forward.

"Steam locomotives can only be used on certain roads, because the main body is composed of steel, so we call it ‘railroad’.”

Several big nobles immediately understood that if they want to produce steam locomotives, in addition to the main body of the locomotive, they also need to manufacture their supporting ‘railway’.

They frowned, because those'railways' understood at a glance that they needed to consume a lot of steel, but they were only building a factory nationwide for half a year, although they also began to use a steam engine to forge steel, but they consumed so If it is huge, what can the remaining steel be used for?

But although Gregory and Calvin are ‘cheap bones~www.wuxiaspot.com~, they are indeed quite powerful, and they should continue to listen...

"Steam locomotives now have only one "head" part. According to our measurements, the locomotive can not only drive the front of the locomotive, but also have a lot of power. We do not have such a large test site, so we cannot measure its load. However, according to our calculations, the steam locomotive The speed after full startup is at least about four miles per hour-please note that this is an average speed and a safe speed. Continued maximum speed will cause a lot of wear and tear on the parts. The maximum speed is six miles per hour!"

Seeing that the big nobles were already moving, Gregory decided to drop a blockbuster. "During the operation and maintenance of the locomotive, no magic is needed!"

"what did you say?!"

A big noble shouted in horror, Huo Ran got up, he completely ignored his body's aging, and regardless of his gaffe.

"If you master the technology, mass production is possible!" Gregory repeated it again, confirming the speculation in the hearts of the great aristocracy and the emperor.

When the words fell, the hall fell into silence. On the contrary, everyone except Gregory and Calvin, including Caesar XIII, could hardly calm down.

Seeing the stunned look of these old nobles, Calvin smiled slightly, this thing has basically become, then as long as you get the approval of His Majesty, let them carry out the load test to make the steam locomotive trial production...

‘However, this is only a trial product after all...’ While rejoicing, Calvin couldn’t help but feel a little worried.

But time has never been on their side, otherwise, they have no other choice.
