my age of magic

Chapter 833 333. Mrs. Aliya's Talent
The prosperity of the sixth district of the imperial capital is based on a slum area with a population of nearly 300 million. It is a dense workshop-style industrial area.Most of the streets are lined with ordinary elementary workshops such as metallurgy, leather making, wood product processing, stone processing, cotton and linen textiles, paper making, slaughterhouses, large mills, glass products, jewelry processing, etc. Although the workshops and shops here can also process Low-level magic materials, but only the cheapest magic antelope leather, magic red copper, luminous pampas grass, etc.

This is a large-scale blacksmith shop. Just look at the industrial-looking arch built with H-shaped steel at the door of the blacksmith shop. The rusty walls are inlaid with various styles of rivets, forming the "North Du The words "Isburg" looked quite imposing. Standing at the gate of the blacksmith shop, I felt that the whole factory was shrouded in a billowing heat wave.

Those large magic caravans with a body of more than ten meters are all waiting here for the wagons to transport iron and steel. The drivers on the magic caravan saw Mrs. Alia's slender waist and round and plump buttocks growing. The underside of the skirt swayed slightly, and the eyes looked straight at it, like countless fine iron slags attracted by a magnet, wishing to stick to Mrs. Aliya's body all at once.

There was a faint smile on her delicate face, without the slightest embarrassment, Madam Alia looked at the rough coachmen around her lightly, her eyes were slightly swaying, her face was full of aristocratic pride and leisurely complacency, which surprised the surrounding coachmen. Time almost forgot where he was, and leaned forward as hard as he could, and even two drivers stepped off the high driving seat, fell to the ground and let out a scream.

Katerina hesitated in the carriage for a while, regardless of the hot weather, she put on a black cloak before she stepped out of the carriage, looked at the coachmen around with vigilance and disgust, and frowned at these vulgar carriage owners , She clenched the hilt of the Sword Breaker tightly, and lowered her eyelids so that no one could see the killing intent hidden in her eyes.

Perhaps because of being on the battlefield for too long, the seal in Katerina's body could not completely restrain her killing heart.

Perhaps it was because there were too many nobles in the imperial capital that the eyes of these carriage owners with small fortunes were so unscrupulous.

I turned around and stopped, and waited for Katerina to come up. I held her hand and calmed her down a bit. If the Duke of Samoyed doesn't care, he won't break the law.The laws in the imperial capital are still very strict.

Mrs. Aliya took two steps, leaned close to me, stretched out her warm arm to hold my arm, her body exuded the scent of jasmine, which smelled very good, as can be seen from the expression on Mrs. Aliya's face It turns out that she is no stranger to this place.

At this time, a manager wearing gray and white silk breeches and a white shirt came out from the blacksmith shop. He wore a dark gray bow tie on his neckline, his hair was combed meticulously, and he walked out quickly with a walking stick in his hand. .The cane drew sparks on the wall of a magic caravan, and made a sharp and piercing sound caused by metal friction, which suddenly woke up the coachmen who were immersed in the charming beauty of Mrs. Alia.

The manager had a smile on his face, stood in front of me and bowed humbly, and then said: "Dear Master Magician, I am Chris Ann, the manager of the blacksmith workshop in North Duisburg. Dee Goss, is there anything I can do for you?"

"Mr. Goss, can you process light steel rails for mines here?" I asked casually.

"Of course, our blacksmith workshop is a limited one in the imperial capital that can roll steel rails. If you are interested, Mr. Magician, I can take you to visit the workshop." The manager Goss spoke very Be polite, and keep your eyes on the faces of Madam Aliya and Katerina for no more than three seconds.

After making eye contact with Mrs. Alia, we agreed to Manager Goss' invitation and followed him into the blacksmith workshop.

You can't see through the layout of the whole workshop at a glance at the door. When I entered the workshop, I found that it was much bigger than I expected. It was very hot inside the workshop, and the blacksmiths only wore leather pants with straps that exposed their backs and arms. , all of them were sweating profusely, using long iron rods to pull out the iron material in the furnace, and dragging it into the forging die for preliminary rolling. In the sink, steaming billowing white water vapor made the inside of the shed look like a steamer.

The layout of the entire blacksmith workshop is very reasonable. The iron material warehouse is adjacent to three huge furnaces, where the iron material is deslagged, and then the molten iron that will be melted will be poured into the prepared sand mold for casting, and then cast again The billet after molding is subjected to secondary melting, and the red-hot billet will be forged and pressed dozens of times, and finally extruded from the rolling roller.

Mrs. Aliya covered her mouth and nose with a silk handkerchief, and exposed a large area of ​​white and greasy skin on her chest. She was sweating from the heat wave, and her complexion became as delicate as a flower, as if she was flushed after drinking alcohol. Red, the workshop is full of sprayed water vapor, hot and bright red molten iron, walking in the aisle of the workshop, Mrs. Alia seems to be a little worried about being scalded by the steaming heat, not caring about the soft chest Clinging tightly to my arm, sticking to my side.

At this time, Katerina's physical fitness advantage was clearly reflected. Although she was covered with a black cloak in addition to the sub-dragon leather light armor, the heat in the workshop did not seem to have caused much harm to Katerina. troubled.

When we passed the huge forging machine for rolling iron billets, the manager Goss was still enthusiastically explaining to us that this power-storing forging machine is the largest forging machine in the imperial capital at present. The core part of this machine is from the ancient ruins. The product of the Hex civilization in the goblin era excavated from the Goblin Era, although the movement has been seriously aged, it can still be used normally.

Seeing the expression on my face, he was obviously curious about this forging machine, so he simply stopped in front of this forging machine and told seriously that this forging machine was built 15 years ago. It was discovered in a relic of the Lado plane, and it took hundreds of slaves to dismantle it into mechanical parts in the relic, and transported it to the imperial capital piece by piece. When it was successfully installed in the imperial capital's workshop, it was also a sensation. At that time, it was also published in the Imperial City Magic News.

Goss told me that after the molten iron is cast in the sand mold, it has to be returned to the furnace to change the internal properties of the metal. After repeated beating on the forging press, it is sent into the rolls and squeezed into rails that meet the size specifications.

At this time, a steel rail happened to be squeezed out of the rolling roll. The hard worker who was supposed to be guarding the exit used a big iron hook to introduce the steel rail into a cold water tank for cooling and quenching. However, the hard worker's eyes were a little flustered. Maybe the previous few seconds He was a little distracted, the steel rail did not fall into the water tank to cool as expected, but the end hit the side wall of the water tank, and the huge impact force made the end of the six-meter-long steel rail bounce off at once.

The red-hot steel rail was like a huge iron spear, and it swept towards us. The manager, Goss, turned pale with fright on the spot, and couldn't speak a complete sentence for a while. The first person to react was the Katerina, she leaned forward slightly, and felt that she suddenly disappeared beside me, and then her body appeared under the sweeping steel rail, her flexible body stretched backwards, her hands clenched the broken sword The attacker slashed fiercely at the steel rail that was as huge as a black iron spear in the hands of a spider warlord.

Even though it was just a broken blade of a rune magic sword, the blade was still extremely sharp. Amidst the crisp sound of metal and iron clanging, a section of the red-hot steel rail was cut off by Katerina, and sparks flew into it. , the small piece of steel rail cut off by Katerina is still flying towards us according to inertia, my first reaction is to protect Mrs. Alia behind me, and use the fastest The speed condenses two 'ice shields' in front of the body.

After the small piece of steel rail smashed one ice shield, the momentum slowed down a bit, and then hit the second ice shield. Under the white steam, the steel rail got stuck on the ice shield, hovering in the air one meter away from us.

The manager, Goss, was pale and seemed to be exhausted. He sat down on the ground, panting heavily to relieve his excitement, and pointed his hands at the dejected hard worker, unable to say a word. come out.

The foreman standing in the distance saw the accident here, so he ran over quickly and saw the large half of the steel rail jumping out of the water tank, and the other small half of the steel rail was covered with a layer of ice at this time, and fell on me. He didn't know what happened, but his eyes immediately stood up, and he strode up to the hard worker, and kicked the hard worker to the ground.

At this moment, a bright red steel rail stuck out from the roller again. The foreman skillfully picked up the big iron hook and led the steel rail into the water tank.

The manager, Goss, had calmed down at this time, and stood beside me and apologized repeatedly. Mrs. Alia stood behind me, holding my left arm tightly in her arms with both hands, and I could clearly feel With the sound of her pounding heart, her slippery skin was already a little sweaty.

After experiencing this change, we did not stay in the workshop any more, but were taken by the manager Goss to a gray and white attic next to the finished product warehouse of the blacksmith workshop. It seems that the owner of the workshop has already learned about it. For this matter, several attendants came down from the attic to greet him. The owner of the workshop was wearing a noble badge on his chest, and his chubby body ran down the spiral staircase.

Seeing that I was wearing a magic robe, he greeted me quickly. Goss gave us a brief introduction. The owner of the workshop is Robert, a hereditary earl. The owner of the workshop, Robert, wiped the sweat from his forehead. After repeatedly apologizing to us, Mrs. Alia, who was next to me, was also slightly taken aback, then looked away, glanced at Katerina cautiously, and asked Goss with a sullen face, "What happened? Tell me Hans, tell that person to pack up and leave immediately, the workshop doesn't want such unsafe factors."

Goss agreed, turned around and left quickly.

The owner of the workshop, Robert, took me to the attic with a few attendants, and sat down in the living room. I explained my intentions to the owner of the workshop, Robert, and directly talked about customizing a batch of light steel rails for mining. I took out the note that Louis gave me from my arms and handed it to the workshop owner Robert.

When he saw the handwriting on the parchment in his hand, the nervousness on his face was relieved a little. He took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the oil secreted from his face, and said to me with a smile: "It turns out that Magician Jijia I am a friend of the Marquis Louise. The Marquis Louise Emerald Bay Trading Company customizes all kinds of steel in my workshop every year. I can’t promise others, but the quality of the light steel rail must be the best among these blacksmith workshops in the imperial capital. And the price can also be consistent with the transaction price of the Emerald Bay Trading Company."

I didn't expect the boss of the workshop to give me such a promise as soon as he sat down. In fact, I didn't have any more requirements. I was about to agree and continue to talk about the drawing size and delivery date.

At this time, a few maids came down from upstairs carrying fruit trays and refreshments, and put cool iced drinks on the coffee table.

Mrs. Alia had calmed down, but she sat next to me and said directly: "Earl Robert, may I ask, what kind of ironware did the Emerald Bay Trading Company customize in your workshop?"

Hearing Mrs. Alia's question, the owner of the workshop squeezed out a wry smile, stretched out his hand and drank the ice water in the glass, and then waved back the waiting maids before saying: " The first time I saw Mrs. Alia, I knew that this business was not going to be cheap. The Emerald Harbor Trading Company purchases at least a thousand steel wheel hubs from the caravan manufacturing workshop in Palestina Province every year. "

"Then what? Louis Mensah's letter of introduction is to push Count Giga to you. Of course, he believes in the quality of the steel in the North Duisburg blacksmith workshop and Robert's goodwill, and he can't trust Robert." Will deceive us in this regard, don’t you think so?” Mrs. Alia’s expression was slightly mocking, and she continued: “Forged steel wheels are processed differently from mine-used light steel rails, and the price will be somewhat higher. difference?"

There was a trace of embarrassment on Robert's face, so he had to explain repeatedly: "Mrs. Alia, from what you said, it's my fault that I didn't explain clearly. How could I sell the profiles at the price of steel wheels? The transaction will be carried out according to the internal agreement price between the workshop and the Emerald Bay Trading Company on the profile."

As he spoke, Jean waved his hand to let the attendants bring over the magic contract signed with the Emerald Bay Trading Company.

When I saw the prices listed in the contract, I suddenly realized that the prices of these steel products also dropped greatly due to different processes. Obviously, the light steel rails for mining are the cheapest in the list.

Mrs. Alia held up the magic contract book. The white skin on her arm was in stark contrast to the black magic contract book. A hint of cunning flashed in her eyes, and she asked Robert, "Is this the price for custom-made hundred roots?"

The owner of the workshop, Robert, was about to nod his head and heard Mrs. Alia's question, but stopped abruptly, and said a little embarrassedly: "The order quantity of a few hundred pieces is naturally impossible to be so cheap, Mrs. Alia, you I also know that if your customized size is special, I need to make a set of rolls for your light rail separately. According to the internal agreement price, if there is an order quantity of [-] roots, then the price must fluctuate by at least [-]%.”

Seeing our suspicious eyes, Robert said cruelly: "Actually, as a workshop of mine, I prefer small profits but quick turnover. The profits are purely based on output. If Mrs. Alia can customize more than a thousand pieces in batches, I will now I can sign a magic contract with you."

After thinking about it, he added another sentence: "If there are large quantities, the price can go down by [-]%."

Madam Aliya rolled her eyes, and asked seemingly casually: "Earl Robert, what is the minimum order for your so-called large quantity?"

The owner of the workshop, Robert, smiled "hehe", and said a little embarrassedly: "Well, at least [-] roots... oh, more than [-] roots are fine. Who told you to be friends with the Marquis Louis? Naturally, I can give it to you. best deal."

A deep smile appeared in Mrs. Alia's beautiful almond eyes, she glanced at me triumphantly, and then said: "That's very good! Marquis Robert, you must keep your word."

I was sitting next to Mrs. Alia, watching her dumbfounded, almost cutting off the price given by the owner of the workshop, Robert...
