Master Tongtian

Chapter 371 It’s better to buy than to make (33)

On the return trip, Rosen was in a happy mood.

I feel that this mermaid lord has a very good character, not barbaric and able to reason.

In this way, as long as they pay attention to using some methods, Beluga Island can take advantage of its high civilization to domesticate the fish people into fish farmers bit by bit.

In short, sea ranching in the archipelago is just around the corner.

But having said that, flowers don’t last forever and people don’t last a thousand days, and we have to be wary of the other party turning their backs for unknown reasons, so we still need to continue to develop countermeasures.

While he was thinking, the green communication gem rang, and Harrick's voice came out.

"Lord~Lord~a group of distinguished guests are here."

Rosen was startled: "What is your identity?"

Harric immediately reported his name: "His Royal Highness Orogard and Master Nailofa from the imperial capital."

"Oh, you are really a distinguished guest. I will be back right away."

He could probably guess the purpose of the two people coming to the island, and he chuckled in his heart.

"I know you don't have the ability to build a plane, so you still have to beg me."

Of course, he just pretended not to know.

Beluga Island is very small. After a while, Rosen returned to the top of the Governor's Mansion.

Then he saw the Royal Sky 2 parked in the square, which was the one he built for the prince.

When the square was renovated, the need for parking multiple aircraft was taken into consideration and it was made very spacious, so it can naturally accommodate them.

After landing and stopping, Harik quickly stopped.

"Lord, we are in the VIP reception room."

"I understand, go ahead and do your work, I will take care of it."

Harrick nodded, then turned and returned to his office and study.

Rosen strode towards the VIP reception room.

From a distance, I could see the door of the room open, and several attendants standing by the door, ready to serve.

Considering that the visitor was extremely distinguished and was also his major financial sponsor, a warm smile appeared on Rosen's face.

Before the person arrives, the voice arrives first.

"Ahaha~ Let me tell you, why is the wind and sunshine so beautiful at the beginning of spring? It turns out that there are distinguished guests coming~"

When they came to the door, they saw the prince and Master Nailofa standing up, with warm smiles on their faces.

Prince Aurogard took a few steps to meet him and praised him heartily.

"Rosen, I didn't expect you to completely take over this archipelago after not seeing each other for a few months. It's really amazing!"

He had just flown a plane around the island and found that there was a lot of construction going on everywhere.

Out of curiosity, he found a place to land quietly, and together with Nairofa, he found a few people and asked, and they roughly knew what Rosen had been doing in the past.

It can only be said that Rosen is not only a genius in magic, but also has amazing business capabilities.

Naturally, Rosen didn't hide anything from the Second Prince, a comrade who had fought together with him.

He smiled slightly: "The main reason is that the local nobles welcomed me warmly, so I responded warmly."

Aurogard laughed: "That's indeed quite lively."

Beluga Island is relatively closed, and the local family has no reputation in the Golden Land. At this time, Rosen killed them all in one go, and there was no disturbance in the interior of the Golden Land.

The prince also felt that this was very normal. Being punished for treason was a matter of course.

Soon, several people sat down again and then got straight to the point.

Master Nailofa took out a star mystery crystal and handed it to Rosen.

"This is a gem that I spent a week synthesizing. It weighs 50 fusa, but its quality is hard to describe."

Rosen took the gem, input mana to test it, and estimated the volume based on it, and concluded that the perfect resonance cavity ratio was 10%.

It's pretty good for a natural gemstone, but it's not on the same level as Rosen's nearly 100% perfect gemstone.

Rosen carefully inspected the gem again and knew which step had the problem: "The master's shaping technique is not precise enough, right?"

Nailofa sighed: "I tried my best, but both the crystal volume and quality have reached my limit."

Orogard pointed to the gem in Rosen's hand: "This gem can probably store mid-level and high-level mana, which is not bad, but it is completely insufficient to drive a flying magic weapon."

"My father consulted the opinions of many alchemists and believed that refining perfect gemstones is very difficult. Although it can be partially overcome by cultivating professional talents from an early age, it is obviously not something that can be solved in a short time."

"And the fact is, when it comes to building airplanes, there are countless situations like this."

Having said this, Aurogarde's face showed deep sadness.

"Master Rosen, the production of flying magic weapons has encountered many, many problems."

Rosen knew this, but with a look of concern on his face: "Your Highness, what are the specific problems?"

A self-deprecating and helpless smile appeared on Nailofa's face.

“I think it’s better to say what’s OK because it’s more concise.”

Aurogard spread his hands: "My uncle is right. To be precise, there are problems everywhere."

He began to explain the situation in detail.

"According to the weapon refining book you gave me, more than thirty weapon refining masters worked together, each responsible for a field. After several months of continuous work, the finished products were produced one after another."

"We tried to assemble all the parts together to create a complete magical weapon."

Rosen suggested: "Your Highness, we are used to calling this flying magic weapon a plane."

"Plane~~ Oh, it's easy to remember, so I'll say so."

He continued: "Anyway, the plane is put together."

"It can fly, but it can't fly fast or high."

Rosen comforted him repeatedly: "Your Highness, this is the first time. It will be fine if you do it a few more times."

Aurogard was not comforted at all and just smiled bitterly.

Nailofa said on the side: "This is already the fifth prototype, the previous four cannot fly!"

Rosen was very happy: "That's not very good, it means it's getting better every time."

Orogard rubbed his forehead: "There is continuous progress, but the masters of weapon refining are relatively old. After continuous high-intensity work, they all fell ill."

"Let's talk about the fifth prototype. The fastest speed is 120 semimeters per second. Any faster than that and it will be useless."

"When flying at top speed, the fuselage will still make a "clunking" sound, and it will feel like it will fall apart in the next second. It will also shake uncontrollably, and it will not dare to do various rolling maneuvers."

"Also, the communication gem has been found, but the noise is very loud and the effective communication distance is only 30 lamimeters."

At this point, Orogarde was too lazy to talk anymore.

Nailofa started to add.

"There are also machine guns. The shells are not powerful at all, and they are not smooth. They either jam or explode. They almost killed the test mage."

"That's right. Due to the shape error of the fuselage, the glass is not installed tightly, air leaks, hisses, and air is pumped out. If you drive it for a long time, you will be out of breath."

Finally, he spread his hands and said: "In short, it is still far away from being truly usable."

Aurogard pointed to Sky 2 outside the window with a look of emotion on his face.

"The aircraft you built is a genuine dragon-slaying artifact. The one imitated by the Royal Workshop is just a sick bird. It is not a product of the same era at all."

"Master Rosen, do you have any solution?"

Rosen spread his hands: "I can only say that there is only one way, and that is to find a genius who refines precision weapons, and then practice more, preferably from a young age."

Why is it so difficult.

Because both the core of Shentetsu and the shape of the aircraft are complex surfaces described by complex functions, it is difficult for the human brain to meet the requirements.

The best way is naturally to develop chip-controlled precision CNC machine tools to assist, and this will not be possible within a century.

Rosen doesn't have the ability either.

The first-level method for that time was to find a talent for refining weapons, train them from an early age according to the path of precision alchemy, and practice boy skills. It should be possible to meet the requirements.

So, he really didn't lie, and the path he gave was correct.

Apparently, Orogard and Narofar knew this too.

They initially suspected that there was something wrong with the weapon refining book provided by Rosen, but after careful inspection, they found that everything was correct, and it was simply because of the incompetence of the weapon refining master.

So when Rosen said this, they agreed.

Aurogard asked: "How long do you think it will take if you focus on training?"

"I personally feel that if you are truly a genius, you should have five years of dedicated practice to gain enough ability to meet the minimum requirements."

"Minimum requirements?"

"After many failures, there may be a success. This success rate is estimated to be about one-fifth."

This is an estimate based on Lotana's situation.

After this chief apprentice studied precision alchemy for more than half a year, the yield rate of the divine iron core has reached one-twentieth.

Orogard and Narofa looked at each other and discussed in low voices for a while.

Finally, Orogard said: "Mr. Rosen, how about this. We are responsible for finding a group of talented young weapon-refining mages, and we will give them to 500 people first. Can you help us train them?"

Rosen wholeheartedly agreed.

"No problem. I currently have about 500 relatively mature weapon-making apprentices. If you bring them, I will arrange them into my workshop, so that they can learn one-on-one."

"The training fee."

Rosen immediately waved his hand: "What did His Highness say? What kind of training fee do you want?"

"Just send the person here, and I will be responsible for food, accommodation and clothing."

"As for me, I will arrange for these young geniuses to come into the workshop to help me build precision magical instruments, and I will also receive a portion of the monthly income for daily consumption."

"I believe that as long as you train in my workshop for five years, you will definitely become a very good precision refiner."

The second prince thought it was very good: "Then let's do it!"

He said seriously: "You can spend time training the weapon-making apprentices, but you can't delay the construction of the aircraft. Therefore, my father's intention is to purchase the finished products from you first."

After several months of practice, I felt that instead of spending a lot of money to build a batch of garbage, it would be better to use the same money to buy a ready-made good aircraft from Rosen.

Rosen cheered up and knew it was a critical moment to make money.

He immediately came up with his idea.

"Your Highness, every part of the Sky-2 I built for you is of the best quality. It cost me a lot of effort and a lot of precious materials, so the price will probably not be low."

"Also, I don't think it's a good idea to build such a good aircraft because it's too expensive and difficult to swarm."

Nairofa understood immediately, his eyes lit up, and he patted the armrest of the chair.

"Rosen, you mean to build a low-cost aircraft with average performance and replace quality with quantity."

"That's right!"

Rosen also clapped his hands gently and explained carefully.

"Your Highness, Master, as long as the cannons are powerful enough, it doesn't matter if the plane is slower. A dozen or so planes will disperse and rush forward, and everyone will attack the dragon together. The opponent will die, right?"

Aurogard immediately nodded: "That's the truth."

Rosen naturally launched his own castration aircraft.

Using the mage's hand, he wrote out two lists at the same time and handed them to Orogard and Narofa respectively.

"Your Highness, this is the price list of accessories I wrote. You can assemble a single-pilot micro-plane according to the above description."

Orogard and Narofar took the list and looked at it carefully.

Just see it written above.

"2 times the speed of sound, 50,000 crowns. 1.5 times the speed of sound, 30,000 crowns. 1.2 times the speed of sound, 15,000 crowns."

"All-weather insight eye, capable of night observation. Outstanding performance is 50,000 crowns, excellent is 30,000, and ordinary is 10,000."

"Machine cannon, 20,000 crowns each, super powerful shells 1,000 crowns, excellent 800, normal 500."

"Communicator. Large 500 lam meters, 20,000 crowns. Small 300 lam meters, 5,000 crowns."

"Energy storage gem."

Written in great detail.

Aurogard soon saw something new: "A clairvoyant eye for night viewing?"

Rosen explained immediately.

"Using a new technique, you can see the ground clearly even if there is no light at all. Especially the living creatures are very eye-catching, just like looking at candles in the night."

"Later, I will give His Highness Sky 2 a free upgrade to this function."

Aurogard was greatly moved when he heard this: "This is a good thing~ It is indeed worth 50,000 crowns!"

Nailofa asked curiously: "What magic principle is this based on?"

Rosen simply explained: "Master, I accidentally discovered that anything with temperature emits light."

"If the flame temperature is high, it will emit light visible to the naked eye. If the temperature is low, it will emit light that is invisible to the naked eye but can be sensed by magic."

"At night, the ambient temperatures vary, so you can see the outline. Especially for living animals, the temperature is obviously higher than the environment, so it is particularly obvious."

Upon hearing this, Nailofa felt that this principle was correct and couldn't help but admire: "Master Rosen's insight is as amazing as it is now."

The two of them continued to watch, and after some discussion, within a short time, they had created a plane.

"Two times the speed of sound, single-pilot, dual-engine cannon, ordinary insight eye, small communicator, small energy storage gem. The total price is 150,000 kroner."

Aurogard pulled out the money box that had been at his feet and put it on the table.

"The 6,000 arcane coins are here, let's get 40 first!"

Originally, I only wanted to order 2 aircraft, but now I have 40 aircraft. I have instantly formed a reliable dragon-slaying combat capability, and I feel that this transaction is extremely worthwhile!

Rosen quickly calculated and found that his profit was about 3 million kronor. He was happy and said: "Your Highness, the delivery will be completed in three months."

With this castrated version of the aircraft, he can get one in two days.

After saying that, he stood up and walked out the door.

"Let's go, Your Highness, I'll equip your plane with an insight eye with outstanding performance."

"Okay~~ Let me see what kind of good thing it is."

Aurogard followed Rosen to the Governor's Palace Square.

Nairofa was also curious, so he followed to see.

When I went out, I turned to look at the cash box on the table and sighed to myself: "Selling airplanes is really profitable!"

In the square, Rosen installed the Eye of Insight on the Prince's plane with three strokes, five divided by two.

The prince opened it and tried it. He liked it immediately and praised loudly: "It's a good thing!"

Nailofa on the side was a little curious about the technical details, and when he was about to ask, Rosen already took the initiative to explain.

"Your Highness, I used optical glass and photo-taking techniques to carefully prepare this. In terms of precision, it is not inferior to the divine iron core."

"I will send you the specific weapon refining book along with the delivery plane."

Nailofa suddenly felt a headache: ‘Another precision magic weapon. ’

He immediately lost interest in asking.

After that, the prince stayed for a while, then took Nailofa with him, drove a new plane with upgraded functions, and returned to the imperial capital happily.

Rosen was about to start building an airplane when another group of visitors came who he couldn't ignore.

But it is the president of the Raging Waves City Mage Guild, the pinnacle Archmage Raven.

This is a ruthless person.

Before, this guy blocked the gate of Thunder Castle and asked the Duke to pay back the money. It is said that the Duke did not dare to go out for three days.

A total of three people came this time. In addition to Raven, two others were also archmages.

They are also civilian archmages who have been invited to participate in the university conference, one is level 8 and the other is level 7.

Not only are they high-level, but they are also logic mages.

In short, if these three people join forces, they can even harm the newly promoted transcendent.

Rosen was even more unlucky, he had to kneel down whenever he came face to face with him.

These three people had no friendship with Rosen, so their sudden visit made him feel guilty, fearing that the visitors might be unkind.

But fortunately, there are 200 elite riflemen in the Governor's Mansion. They all carry thorn runes on their bodies and use special Serkin spell-breaking guns, which are rapid-fire guns with 50 rune bullets in ten seconds.

If they really put their efforts together, the torrent of bullets would be enough to threaten the lives of the three archmages.

Therefore, Rosen is relatively calm.
