Magic Industrial Age

P.S. An extra chapter for the first reader who gave a reward for this book. Thank you for your support.

Prosperous Manor,

Second floor, study.

This is Count Raymond's study and the most luxuriously decorated room in the entire manor.

Under normal circumstances, it is naturally not allowed to be opened, but today's situation is special, and it has been requisitioned.

The fire in the fireplace is blazing, dispelling the evening chill, and Loy is here to entertain important guests.

Near the window,

By the desk.

"Sir Karl Blatt, welcome, welcome!"

"Loy Roifitz, you are more promising and younger than I imagined. If the little brats in my family had your ability, I could die with my eyes closed."

"Sir, you're joking. Who doesn't know that your eldest grandson is studying at the Royal Academy? He has a bright future!"

"Haha, you flatter me. Is this Mr. Olivera? Your name precedes you, truly the demeanor of a strong man!"

"My teacher is rather silent, Sir, please don't take offense! Come, come, this is the contract, Sir, you can take a look at it first!"

"What's there to see? The terms that needed to be discussed have already been discussed. Looking again is a waste of time."

"Sir, it's always good to be cautious. Contracts should always be approached with care."

"Then I'll take a look?"

"Take a close look, take a close look!"

"Alright!"

A moment later, both parties confirmed, and the quill pen wrote the name at the end, then made two copies, each holding one.

After going to the executive hall tomorrow for notarization, Loy will be one of the shareholders of the Devis Magic Energy Factory.

Although it is a small shareholder, you can't treat the village chief as not being a cadre. A small shareholder is also a boss, and the status is different. Moreover, they are already a community of interest.

After the signing was completed, Loy took out the dimensional bag.

In Sir Karl Blatt's envious eyes, he took out the ruby ring and gold notes given by the Seven Gods Bank.

Fill in the numbers, sign the name, and then drop the mark...

A very simple action, but it attracted the attention of everyone present. When this gold note was handed to Karl Blatt, he solemnly took it and put it in his inside pocket.

Even he couldn't ignore a thousand gold Thalers, which was a very considerable fortune.

At this point, both parties have completed the signing!

That's right, this dance party was held in the name of signing, but you can't really pull a group of people with status and status in society into the banquet hall and sign in front of everyone.

In the noble world, this is a very rude behavior and is not appropriate.

So, the banquet is in this name, but the signing is done on the second floor.

After the matter was over, Loy said, "Sir, please rest in the sofa area for a while, I'll deal with things with other people first?"

Karl Blatt smiled and nodded: "I'm old, and attending parties can only be chatting with people, dancing is not possible."

"Haha, with your status, of course you are watching other people dance, this way please!"

"Alright!"

After getting up, Karl Blatt was about to take a step with his cane when he suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, I heard that there is a special program tonight. I wonder, what kind of magic energy machine makes you so optimistic about it?"

Loy made a gesture of invitation and said humbly: "It's a little idea of mine, and Miss Lilia Lightninger, a teacher at the academy, helped me complete it."

"Speaking of which, it is a bit rude to display it at the banquet. If the Sir doesn't like it, just ignore it."

"No, others may not understand magic energy machines, but we know about them, don't we? I just don't know if you accept investment here?"

"Of course, if the Sir is interested, we can talk about follow-up cooperation, how about it?"

"Good, good, good!"

Sir Karl Blatt happily went to the sofa area to drink tea, while Loy signed a contract with the next businessman, Matthew Hescott, and offered the payment.

Loy did the same thing nine times, spending nine thousand gold Thalers in exchange for shares in nine magic energy factories.

And all the factory owners who signed contracts with him did two things.

First, say hello to Olivera!

Even though Olivera maintained his consistent aloofness and hardly said a word, a slight nod was considered giving face.

However, none of these people felt that it was inappropriate!

The gold content of a Tier 3 Transcendent is no joke.

Second, they were curious about the magic energy hammer forging machine.

Of course, some people were genuinely curious, while others felt that Loy was a bit rude.

In fact, within the rules of noble banquets, there is no precedent for a demonstration of this kind of magic energy machine.

However, Loy didn't think he was someone of high status, and he sneered at the so-called etiquette of the nobility.

In his opinion, it was enough to achieve his goals.

Those invited were either magic energy machine factory owners or related practitioners.

He believed that as long as they saw the actual demonstration of the magic energy hammer forging machine, they would understand its value better than anyone else.

After entertaining everyone and signing nine contracts, it meant that half of the banquet's affairs for tonight were completed.

Loy accompanied them to talk and chat in the sofa area. It should be said that those who can reach high positions and become rich in this era are all people with great vision.

The nine people in front of him have different origins, different preferences, but all have their own momentum.

When they sat there and talked eloquently, it felt like beasts sitting and discussing the Tao in the mountains.

What they talked about was mostly the current affairs of the empire, various policies, and the impact they brought.

Even, there was a dispute over 'what kind of transportation to use'.

Within the empire, there are now canal factions and railway factions arguing endlessly.

Some believe that water transportation is the future, and suggest widening waterways between different rivers and building canals to connect the east and west to form a canal network.

Some are optimistic about magic energy trains, believing that as long as the rails are laid, development can reach there.

Both sides hold their own opinions, arguing fiercely, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and each has its own interests.

Furthermore, perhaps out of some concerns, they hardly mentioned the affairs of Oakland City, as if they didn't see it.

In this kind of occasion, Loy behaved very silently, more as a listener.

But some people were unwilling to let him go. The wealthy businessman Matthew Hescott turned his gaze and suddenly said: "Mr. Loy, although you are young, the excellence and knowledge you have shown have made us admire you.

I just don't know, are you more optimistic about canals or railways?"

Loy was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect that he could lead the 'war' to himself.

However, seeing everyone's eyes converging, he knew that he had to say something.

After thinking for a while, he said: "In fact, whether it is canals, railways, or land routes, in my opinion, there is no difference."

"I only recognize one sentence, if you want to get rich, build roads first.

As long as the roads are open and transportation is convenient, and various materials can be transported in place, it can bring great development!"

"As for which one to choose specifically, that is something that the imperial royal family and the cabinet ministers need to consider, and what we have to do is to follow the imperial policy closely."

"Magic energy machinery is the empire's main promotion, and if we want to make a fortune, just follow the empire's footsteps."

His words seemed to have no substance, but when everyone tasted them carefully, they felt that his attitude was very clear and very interesting.

At this time, the textile king Jack Lisbon suddenly asked: "In other words, you are a loyal supporter of the royal family, an imperial royalist?"

These words were meaningful, and even a kind of explicit statement!

But Loy said without hesitation: "I closely follow the footsteps of the Habsburg Empire Hohenzollern family, but not all royalists are necessarily loyal to His Majesty the Emperor."

"You also know that I have been attacked several times during this period, and I still don't know who did it!"

"People always have selfish desires, who can say for sure!"

"But in the general direction, I will never change. I am studying at the Imperial Magic Academy, and I am interested in the magic energy machinery major.

In the future, I will continue to invest in this area, and everyone can wait and see, perhaps more magic energy machines will be born from my hands."

His words were full of confidence. At this time, Lilia walked in with her skirt.

It felt like a ray of moonlight shining into the house, making the entire study bright.

Many bosses had straight eyes!

Men are always young until they die!

Lilia faced a group of factory owners and behaved very calmly. She nodded slightly and said to Loy: "Loy, the time has come, the party can begin."

Loy smiled and stood up: "Everyone, it was a pleasure chatting with you. However, I'm afraid it has to stop for now."

"The banquet must begin!"
