Alien Arms Empire.

Chapter 77 77 Greatness
"Is this the 'factory' you mentioned? This is a construction site." John, who jumped off the carriage, looked around, raised his eyebrows at Tang Mo and said, "You plan to use these things to cheat me out of a large sum of money? "

"Using cheating words... This is obviously too much." Tang Mo waved his hand, and then made a gesture of invitation: "Believe me, if you only look at the appearance, such a person is really too superficial."

"Come on! Come in with me and take a look, and you will know how great the factory I am talking about is." Tang Mo said as he gestured to the guard to open the door.

In fact, Tang Mo's factory only has a courtyard wall at all, so the symbolic significance of his gate is completely greater than the actual effect.

As long as you look into the distance, you can see that the courtyard wall "disappeared" not far away, replaced by a magnificent construction site.

That's exactly what John did, because he did see the construction site and the workers who were helping to remove the bricks.

Because Tang Mo lacked construction materials, Tang Mo's workers had to do some things like demolishing the east wall to make up the west wall every day.This section of the courtyard wall has been several hundred meters long at the beginning, and now only 20 meters have not been used to decorate the facade.

Therefore, walking the main entrance is actually just a habit that is reluctantly reserved to satisfy the sense of ritual. Many workers have actually stepped on the road in other places for convenience...

"Although it is a bit crude, this place will soon become the center of future world development. Believe me, John, my friend! Compared with the things conceived here, everything you have seen before is not worth mentioning!"

He walked in front of the courtyard and saw a group of children with schoolbags passing by. When John saw these children after school walking on the flat road with the same pace as a military parade, he suddenly had a hallucination—— Walking in front of you is an army!
To be honest, he has never seen a group of children after school who can maintain a neat formation, nor has he seen a crowd that never plays and makes noise.

Even the most elite troops cannot guarantee such a state in a non-training environment on weekdays, and at this moment, only a group of children are standing in front of him.

What surprised him even more happened. After seeing Tang Mo, these children immediately stopped on the side of the road. With their chins raised, they raised their right hands towards Tang Mo, spread their palms, and pointed their fingertips at Tang Mo. own temple.

Tang Mo also raised his right hand and walked through the neat square formation like a general.Although there was no sound during the whole process, the shock it brought to John was really too great to be added.

From this moment on, even if he didn't see the equipment Tang Mo mentioned, he began to believe that there was indeed something conceived here, something that could be described as great or terrible.

So he no longer dared to underestimate them, followed behind Tang Mo, and looked at these children standing there like a pilgrimage with serious eyes.

"Are you training them to be your soldiers?" The elf captain behind John asked Tang Mo who was walking ahead curiously.

"No, they are all my students!" Tang Mo explained proudly.He did not lower his voice, but introduced these children in a high voice: "They are all my proudest students!"

Hearing Tang Mo's words, the children's jaws grew even higher, as if they didn't pay much attention to John, an elf nobleman.It was as if they were looking at John and the others with their nostrils.

It can be seen that they are proud, they are proud of the education they have received in the past few months, and the many strange knowledge that Tang Mo has given them.

"It can be seen." John nodded, and continued to follow Tang Mo past the children. When Tang Mo passed the end of the line, the line started to move forward again.

Following a high-pitched voice from among the children, the children continued to walk, still without any noise or confusion, and the footsteps seemed to be even more proud after being praised by Tang Mo.

Yes, pride, John thought of the word repeatedly - pride.I don't know why, but he always feels that these children have a little aristocratic taste in their bones...

And this time, John confirmed one thing. When these children heard the sound of walking in unison and then started to move forward, they all stepped forward with their left foot and waved their right hand first, and their movements were uniform.

He stopped talking, but followed Tang Mo, walking step by step on the not-so-wide road, until he reached Tang Mo's first workshop.

The so-called first workshop is the factory where Tang Mo first mass-produced the K1 fast gun.Now here, it is still the main production workshop of the K1 fast gun produced by Tang strange.

Because in Tang Mo's newly built workshop, one is for producing revolvers, one is for producing steam engines, and the other is for producing rails and other supporting parts, so only the first two workshops are for producing K1 fast guns.

This actually explained Tang Mo's attitude towards the K1 fast gun from another aspect - this is just a transitional product, and there is no reason to invest too much.

Of course, the most important function here is that now Tang Mo brought John to visit, making John willing to pay.

Sure enough, when they heard the roar of the machine and saw dozens of gun barrels being manufactured at the same time, John and the elf captain who followed John were completely dumbfounded.

Even though John was well prepared before entering the workshop, when he saw the steam engine and those complicated transmission mechanisms, his poor little brain still shut down.

Yes, his poor head couldn't process the picture in front of him for a while, just like a 710 graphics card challenging the Cyberpunk 2077 game...

He just stood there stupidly, watching the flywheel of the steam engine turning there, and watching the torsion bar reciprocating there.

Finally, after he shut down the redundant running programs in his mind and finally let that small processor start to dominate his body again, John suddenly turned his head to look at Tang Mo.

"Are you using this machine to produce gun barrels fully automatically?" He asked Tang Mo impatiently, pointing to the steam engine that had broken down twice.

In fact, there is no need for any negotiating skills, because from his voice that has begun to change, it can be heard that he will not miss everything in front of him.

If he was participating in an auction at this moment, he would not put down the price tag in his hand at all—this may be the first time in his life that he honestly agrees with spending money like water from his heart to his body.

He even dared to boldly shout out the slogan that he had longed for but never dared to say easily: "You bid! No matter how much you bid, I will add a gold coin!"

"It doesn't count." Tang Mo felt that he was still a long way from fully automatic, so he said shyly with some embarrassment: "Actually, each barrel still needs a worker to control it."

"So... what you said, it's true that one worker here can drill 4 gun barrels a day!" John suddenly remembered some "advertising words" that Tang Mo had told him before.

"Of course it's true, you've seen it too... These drills have a constant speed and can rotate continuously." Tang Mo walked to the side of the machine and pulled a device, and the drill broke away from the half-drilled barrel. Entered the idling mode: "And, you can stop at any time!"

At this time, the captain of the elf clan standing over there came back to his senses and noticed the wooden shelf in the corner specially used to support new guns.

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, because on the bracket over there, a row of completed Tang's K1 fast guns had been placed vertically, and the wood was shining with a polished and shiny light.

"You said...this...machine...is also for sale?" John confirmed to Tang Mo uncertainly.Of course he remembered that Tang Mo said that these machines and technologies were for sale, but after seeing these things, he really didn't dare to expect such a good thing.

"Yes, they are all for sale." Tang Mo pointed to his steam engine, and laughed loudly with the roar of the steam engine: "Steam engine! Transmission! Including machine tool equipment! All are for sale!"

"And! Their manufacturing technology, production process! They are all clearly marked!" Tang Mo said while shaking his head: "But you don't have that much money anymore! My friend!"

"Go back... Collect all the valuables from everyone! Rings, gold teeth, jewelry, necklaces, pocket watches, private property... bills or land deeds... in short, whatever! Then calculate the total price! "John looked at his subordinate, the captain who hadn't fully recovered from his mind: "Got it?"

"Ming, I understand." The captain swallowed another mouthful of saliva after hearing the order, and nodded subconsciously.

"This! Here you are!" Pulling off a ring inlaid with sapphires from his finger, John handed it to Tang Mo without hesitation: "400 gold coins!"

He seemed to think of something again, and took out a pocket watch with a pure gold case and exquisite patterns all over it from his pocket: "And this one! A treasure of famous masters! You know this thing is very precise, and it is not cheap to make one 300 gold coins! No less!"

"That..." Seeing that John was about to take off his clothes, Tang Mo felt that his exorbitant asking price was a bit too bullying to an honest person.

And John, who saw the steam engine, didn't even care about bargaining.In other words, he still remembered, but he didn't dare.

He didn't dare to speak, and didn't dare to desecrate everything that was great before him.In fact, he held on to suppress his strong urge to worship these things.

In just a few minutes, John was sure of one thing - the road to the rise of the poplar kingdom was right in front of him...
