Magic Tower Starry Sky
Chapter 1037: negotiate
"My lord, I am Uzov Gantia, the current president of the Technical Guild. I would like to greet you here."
Uzov, who entered the reception room, saluted respectfully, but it was not the kind of etiquette that subjects give to their lords, but the way followers salute to magicians. This method would be considered an insult to some nobles. But it would be quite ridiculous to show much respect to a member of the Turtledove League with three birds embroidered on his body.
Instead, standing behind the nobleman, the three accompanying people had expressions on their faces. The two lightly armed soldiers looked displeased, and wanted to dismantle the impolite person in front of them. But another black-clothed deacon looked at the president of the technology guild with a playful expression.
Sitting comfortably on the sofa chair, the baron from the neighboring kingdom did not get up, but just nodded slightly. It can be regarded as responding to Uzov's salute with the same disrespectful attitude. On the one hand, he wanted to give the other party a bad start, so that he could have more bargaining chips in the future negotiations; on the other hand, it was also because his attention was all attracted by the layout of the reception room.
The reception room of the technical guild is different from the reception room of nobles or other chambers of commerce. It is more like an exhibition center of the earth. But it doesn't mean that everything is piled up in a mess, but all the objects that can be seen in the room are related to the patented technology of the technology guild, and all of them are made by the guild's craftsmen, which is different from the traditional style of Midi.
In traditional style, the nobler the material, the more fancy the decoration, the better the thing. But for mass-produced goods, it is of course impossible to spend too much time on fine crafting. Therefore, the objects from the technical guild, in the words of a certain magician, are simple.
But simplicity is not poor, but to show the craftsmanship of the technical association in the straight and neat lines. Although not as soft as handmade objects, in this era, such a fortitude is so different.
Sensing that the nobleman in front of him was attracted by the thick-backed straight knife on the rack, Uzov said politely: "My lord, I like this knife. This is made by craftsmen under our guild using unique techniques. Its value It’s not that it’s unique, but that it can equip an army with the same quality. Of course, the premise is that there must be enough materials. If it’s just a few, it’s okay to say, but if you really want to equip an entire army, our guild doesn’t have so many reserves Material."
Uzov joked a little bit about the guild itself, in order to ease the stagnant atmosphere in the reception room. As for what he said, the 'unique' technology used in this steel knife is actually just a method of alloy forging. Perhaps in the eyes of a certain traveler, this seems to be a common-sense way of playing. It is indeed an area that no one studies in the lost land where all kinds of magic materials are rampant.
More importantly, the alloy formula of this steel knife did not come from Xiacute, nor was it someone's 'casual mention'. It's just something that the dwarves played with after Lin proposed a concept. Although in the eyes of those masters, such a steel knife is not a work at all, but under the premise of mass production, it can be regarded as a qualified military product.
As for why the technology guild produced weapons, it violated the intention of the people who did not intend to do arms business. This is simply because Lin did not restrict the development of the technology guild. And making swords and armor is a basic skill for blacksmiths who are lost in the land. As long as they have the technology they can learn from, it's hard not to use this aspect.
With the new technology as an excuse, the baron couldn't continue to put on airs, so he asked casually: "Oh. So what is the so-called new technology?"
"Hehe, my lord, this is what I don't understand. I only know that it is a technology that Midi has never had before, and the detailed content is protected by the guild's regulations. My task is just to let the craftsmen Make good use of your talents so that employers can see their entrustment fulfilled with satisfaction, that’s all.”
"Oh. What if I said, I want to issue a commission to make some special parts?" the baron crossed his fingers and asked tentatively.
"As long as it is something we can do and there is a reasonable remuneration, I believe there will be craftsmen who are willing to accept the commission. What I can guarantee is that the craftsmen who accept the commission will definitely have the ability to complete it. Some people come to make up for the number."
"Then I'm going to build an airship. And it's not an ordinary airship, but the one made by the Technology Guild recently, and it must be exactly the same."
Facing the baron's straightforward request, Uzov could only chuckle and said, "If it's such a request, then we really can't do it."
"Didn't you just say that as long as you know how, you can accept the entrustment? Or are you deceiving a nobleman. Think about what you say next, Mr. President." The baron said in a teasing and threatening manner Say.
"As long as we know it. My lord, although that is not my exact words, it is basically not wrong. But regarding that airship, the Technology Guild only accepted the commission to make some parts. You want the entire airship boat, we really can't do it."
"Knowing how the parts are made, how can you not build an airship! If you keep using this kind of excuse, I think I can reasonably question the credibility of your technical guild, which is not as promised on the forum .”
The baron pressed on with words. Although Uzov was annoyed when he heard it, he felt like laughing instead. He thought that he understood his master's thoughts when he was questioned by a group of inexplicable old stubborn ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ with inexplicable reasons on the way of mathematics.
Uzov, who was already seasoned in the world, hid his thoughts well, and said politely: "My lord, the so-called airship is the most advanced technology in the magician's world. On the airship, besides the magic tower, are the five legendary floating islands. And the members of our technical guild, although there are magicians joining, but those few adults are not good at this aspect of technology , other than that, at most it is the level of magic apprentices, and most of them are joined by ordinary people. Do you think it is reasonable that such a group of people can build an airship that most magicians can't make? —”
Although the attitude is polite, but the content is not tactful retort at all, almost pointing at the other person's nose and scolding the idiot. But Uzov still tried to calm the atmosphere and continued to explain.
"—For the airship that you are concerned about, my lord, what the Technology Guild has participated in is only the production of some parts, not all of them. As for the assembly, whether there is any additional processing, it is all up to you. We don't know what happens in the car manufacturing and R & D center. If you think you have the parts, you can put together an airship. You can issue a commission, make the relevant parts, and then hire The magician built this airship. However, it is very interesting that although we know the number of parts shipped, we also don’t know how many are actually used and how many are spare parts. Based on maintenance technology Considering the reputation of the guild, my suggestion is to spend a lot of money to buy a bunch of parts that you don’t know how to assemble. Such behavior should be cautious. I don’t want to destroy the technology because of what we can’t do in the future because of what has been explained. The good reputation established by the guild over the past few years."
