Steel steam and flame

I originally thought that there would be only a few documents during the handover, but I didn't expect that there would be a pile of handover agreements and contracts. Each one needed to be signed by Cassia and Delya, and it took a lot of time to complete.

The money in the bank card has been exchanged at the Golden Bank in Manoma. Back within the empire, the supervision of the Golden Bank rests with its headquarters in Manoma. It is almost impossible to investigate the information on this card again.

The money was handed over smoothly, and the smile on the boss's face became even brighter. He insisted on inviting Cassia and Delya to dinner, but they both declined for various reasons. Finally, a group of managers from the steam factory loaded their belongings into a car parked next to the factory, and drove away before it was completely dark.

The sounds of several cars quickly disappeared into the distance, and the factory suddenly became quiet. Today was originally the last day of production for this factory. Only those who were loading the goods were still transporting the last produced supporting parts to the big trucks and settling all the orders placed before Cassia and the others arrived.

The machines had stopped, and the warehouse, which occupied one-third of the factory's area, was cleared in a short time. Except for some damaged skips awaiting repair and rusty parts scattered on the ground, nothing was left. The boss had sold everything that could be sold before Cassia and the others arrived here. The effect of management is here, and it is natural that it will eventually be eliminated in the competition.

The remaining employees have nothing to do, and it should still be normal working hours now. All the machines stopped and the assembly line stopped moving. They just finished their meal and stayed at their posts with nothing to do.

All the senior management left, some followed the boss, and the rest resigned and went elsewhere. What's left is nothing more than a group of little bosses, sitting in front of the table, also having nothing to do, waiting for the time to get off work. Normally they should be very busy, but now they are empty-handed, which makes them feel uncomfortable.

"This is happening." Delya looked at the factory building with lights behind her and spread her hands helplessly. Manoma also had a newly purchased house for them to check out, and the basic furniture and layout were issues that needed to be solved urgently.

"Let's call everyone together first and talk about it. Although their contracts have been transferred to us, we don't need so many people. Most of them have to leave." Cassia said, adding here After figuring it out, we can basically start the production of ammunition, which will probably take a while.

"These are all small things, but where do you buy the ammunition production line? Let's not talk about firearms for now. The most common weapons, such as the most popular firecrackers, and the material for making the gun body - meteorite copper, that is the first That’s a problem. Not to mention the high-tech gun barrels.” Delya smiled, “These are things we need to use ourselves. It’s best to start with platinum bullets, and don’t imitate those shoddy small workshops. Of course. , you don’t need to pay too much attention to the part that is sold. The transaction in the dark world has never been penny-for-dollar. As long as the seller can cheat, it is possible to sell ordinary bullets for the price of platinum bullets. No. If you buy fake or low-quality goods with your eyesight, you can only blame your eyesight for not working well.”

"Of course, if you want to achieve long-term development, it's best to follow the standards from the beginning. Although it will be a bit harder in the early stage, the benefits later will be considerable. If it is bad at the beginning, it will bring bad consequences in the future. The cost of dealing with a series of messes is comparable to buying new goods." Delya spoke based on her own experience, "This is what happened to me in Brino. The result of the lowering of indulgence standards is myself. The production line has been completely reduced to a cheap workshop, and the ammunition and firearms produced are not dared to be used by their own people. You also know the situation of Blino, there are many frictions. It is okay to say that there are minor problems with these things, but when they are moved out The ammunition explodes in a large area, and due to the craftsmanship and gunpowder ratio, the effective range is reduced by half, which is fatal. Fire suppression relies on quantity, but the prerequisite is that the quality must be good."

"So the production line that I spent a lot of money to buy was abandoned after half a year, and the machines were sold at a low price. Not only did I lose a lot of money, but in the end I had to buy all the bullets and firearms from outside." Delia looked regretful, "It's not easy to recruit suitable candidates to join our knights. For a long time to come, the knights will only have your name and mine. There is no need to rush the operation of the production line, we just need to find a good businessman to introduce assembly to us. Now we have no place to need a large amount of ammunition."

Cassia thought about it and nodded, finally listening to everything Delya said.

"Let me think of a way to introduce and purchase the production line. Let's start solving the immediate problems one by one. I also know that we can't chase time on this matter, and the problem of funds is there. Our current demand is just one It's just a very spacious storage warehouse." Cassia found the right words. Delya agreed, and now she was back to the starting point just like when she arrived in Brino.

All the people in the factory were gathered together, and Delya stood in front and spoke a lot with a loudspeaker. But the workers all knew the situation here. They originally wanted to keep a few good workers, but after hearing that the factory was going to do other business and might not be able to start work in a month or two, no one stayed in the end. He said that the city will leave soon and there is no shortage of labor, but there are countless such industrial manufacturing plants. They still have the basic right to choose.

Everything had to be made from scratch. Before these people paid their last salary and left here, Cassia asked them to clean the entire steam factory inside and out again. Because the boss had made some preparations before the two of them came here, the last thing they needed to do was to apply anti-rust oil to the machines and seal all the dozens of machines and furnaces with plastic films to prevent them from falling. Just dust.

The underground rails in offices and warehouses that were no longer needed were all removed. Except for the production machines, the entire factory building has become a clean open space. This result took Cassia and the others three days. During this period, the house they bought in the transitional area from the center of Manoma to the periphery was also taken care of.

The two-story house is right on the roadside, with convenient transportation. It is not far from the intersection of the highway. It looks like a leisure villa. The housing area on the first floor is about 500 square meters, with a garage that can park two standard cars next to it, and a small garden with only grass in front. The grass had just been pushed through, and a row of wooden fences were covered with dense moss, but now they were all withered and yellow.
