Warhammer Wizard
Chapter 482: Opportunities for Mechanics
In less than half an hour, the sound of a car came from the forecourt of the castle.
Here comes Akland.
The legendary mid-level mechanic was blushing and his eyes were full of anticipation. When he entered the living room, he said loudly: "Ren, I heard that you have something to do with me. I don't even care about the latest motorcycle test, how about it? , is it enough to give you face?"
Ren laughed, "please sit down."
He had a good time working with Arkaland a few times, and he was very familiar with each other, so he spoke more casually.
When the maid brought the tea, Akalander took a few sips to quench his thirst, then shook his head and said, "You are a real big man now. It's hard for many people to see you."
"You can come to me anytime." Ren shrugged.
"What's the use of coming?" Arkarland looked helpless. "As Earl of Glamorgan, how much time did you spend in the castle? By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet, Lord Augustus."
"Thank you." Ren accepted the other party's congratulations reservedly.
Seeing his calm look, Akalander couldn't help but sigh: "Congatro's Dragonborn Restoration has been spread to the Empire. In the past two months, the Imperial Council has sent a privately-held mission to Wezeland because Wezeland has not been approved by the consul. I don’t know how many times I’ve quarreled about the sorcerer’s affairs. Now I hear that you were canonized as a duke by His Majesty the Dragonborn, and the quarrel is even worse. I don’t know how many people envy you…”
"Tsk tsk!"
"This is a duke. Although the title is not as noble as the duke of the empire, there is a huge fief with millions of people, and even I am jealous."
Akalander's face is full of yearning. If he wants to get such a big fief in the empire, he can only be promoted to the Holy Soul Wizard and enter the Supreme Council.
Even if other transcendents rise above level 20, they are not eligible to be named dukes.
An empire is an empire of wizards, not an empire of superhumans.
Ren heard the deep meaning of Akland's words, but he was actually reminding himself to be careful of dark arrows.
He has long known about the quarrel of the Imperial Council, and there is nothing to worry about. These things have been handled by the teacher. The Wizard of Wazeland went to Congatro in a personal capacity, and now that it's a foregone conclusion, there's no point arguing with the councillors.
Behind these disputes are nothing more than the small actions of the other two factions.
They don't want to see Wezeland Floating Void City profit from Congatro, solve the huge debt problem, and ease the teacher's passivity in the Supreme Council.
"If anyone thinks there is any doubt, just come to me." Ren sneered.
"Hahaha..." Akalander burst out laughing, "Those councilors are just running dogs under the feet of real bigwigs, and they won't dare to appear in front of you if you give them a hundred courage, unless they think their heads are bigger than Mark's. hard."
The decisive battle outside Kingsland also spread to the Empire.
No one saw that Ren was using the real Thor's Hammer. However, anyone with a little knowledge knew that Ren's strength was already at the pinnacle of legend. Looking at the entire empire, unless it was a holy soul wizard or an extraordinary saint. The attacker made a move, but he couldn't find a few people who could catch Ren's hammer.
Renn stopped talking about Congatro, but asked about the motorcycle factory.
The two worked together to build a motorcycle factory. Except for the day when the first car rolled off the assembly line, Renn never went there again. All of them were handed over to Akland to manage them, completely acting as a shopkeeper.
When it comes to motorcycles, Akalander's emotions run high.
He has devoted all his energy to motorcycles for more than a year, and has improved to the third new car. At the same time, he has not forgotten to increase the production line and increase sales. In the name of the mechanical union, he has established branch factories in all major cities of the empire. .
Now there are more than ten motorcycle factories, with a total production capacity of 1,000 vehicles per day.
Sales are also very hot.
Because the price is cheap enough, only less than one-tenth of the car, and it is easy to use, many urban residents and even rural civilians can afford it, and the supply has been in short supply.
Almost every car has been snatched by someone waving banknotes as soon as it leaves the factory.
Now, in the big cities and suburban villages and towns of the empire, motorcycles with white smoke can be seen everywhere, passing through the streets and alleys, leaving a series of roars.
The mechanics' union also sees the prospect of motorcycles, which will be one of the most lucrative projects.
Akland has decided to continue to invest, increase production capacity, and strive to produce 5,000 motorcycles per day within three years, and sell them to countries outside the empire.
As a result, the motorcycle factory will not only be unable to recover its capital in the early stage, but also invest more funds.
Speaking of which, Akalander is a little embarrassed.
He once told Ren that he would make a profit within a year, but he slapped himself in the face.
The motorcycle cake is too big. Even though he is the vice president of the Mechanical Union, he can't stop those greedy eyes. There are also branches in various cities, lords and nobles, and big businessmen in sales channels, for the sake of the motorcycle factory. The shares of the company are fighting against each other, and even friction has occurred.
Renn owns 40% of the shares of Modu's first factory.
According to the previous agreement, no matter which city the new branch of the Mechanics Union is in, as long as the technology of Rennes' steam motorcycle is used, each branch must give Rennes 10% of the shares.
This 10% share does not seem to be much. When more and more factories are opened in the future, the value is incalculable.
Ren saw the difficulty of Akland and asked, "Someone wants to move my 10% shares?"
"Yes." Akland nodded silently, "I am not the only one who has the final say in the mechanical union. There are several other vice presidents, and the local chapters also want to share a piece of the pie. Those new factories will be divided if you do nothing. Going a tenth is too high for a lot of people."
He thought for a while and then said: "If you can make concessions and reduce the share to half, I can help you win it."
Ren nodded, he was not an unreasonable person.
Thinking from another perspective, it was also uncomfortable for Akland to be caught in the middle, so he asked, "Do you have any information about the branches in various places? Show me."
"I always carry it with me." Arkarand took out a thick stack of documents.
Ren took over to read it. The above are the cities where the thirteen new factories in the empire are located, the input cost and the shareholding composition, and more than 20 new factories are also in preparation. Just looking at the information, even people who don't understand business can see the future prospects and huge market of motorcycles.
It is much cheaper than a car, but it sells dozens of times more than a car.
In the future, the motorcycle market will be fully expanded, and the annual revenue will reach at least 80 million gold shields. In addition, the follow-up maintenance is also an income, and the annual net profit will exceed 10 million gold shields.
If we can develop overseas markets, it is estimated that we can double it!
Who is not jealous of the annual income of tens of millions of gold shields? Not to mention an ordinary noble lord, even the Holy Soul Wizard couldn't sit still and couldn't help but want to step in and make a fortune.
In fact, Ren saw the shadow of the Holy Soul Wizard on the shareholder lists of some new factories.
Many of these people are wizards in the floating city, or simply members of the wizard family.
Ren had previously thought that motorcycles would be very popular and would inevitably have a broad market, but he did not expect it to be so popular, far beyond his imagination.
The most important thing here is that motorcycles burn "ash coal". Its calorific value is no less than that of gasoline in the previous life, but it is much cheaper than gasoline. The mature steam technology of the union has produced a steam motorcycle with excellent performance, so it broke out all at once.
"Ren, I'm under a lot of pressure."
Akland's face was embarrassed, "Every day, people come to the door to put pressure on me, forcing me to hide in the factory. Even the president asked me several times, asking me to ask for your opinion as soon as possible. I have been here several times. , Fabian always says you're not there."
Ren raised his eyebrows, and the mysterious president couldn't stand the pressure.
"I understand."
He thought about it for a while and said, "I definitely won't hand over that 10% share to others." Ren's words made Akland's expression change slightly, and just as he was about to open his mouth, Ren waved his hand and said, "But I also I won’t take shares for nothing, how much money I invested in building the factory in the early stage, I will invest in proportion to the shares.”
10% of the shares of all motorcycle factories earn millions of gold shields every year, which is quite an earl territory. Who is willing to let go?
If Ren is just an ordinary lord, he can't keep his interests, so he can only recognize it by pinching his nose.
But he is not.
With Wei Zelan and a Holy Soul wizard as the backing, the teacher is in good health, and his strength is also invincible under the Holy Soul, why should he spit out the meat that he eats in his mouth?
What belongs to me is mine, and no one wants to take it away, even if the Holy Soul Wizard is here!
Akland's face changed uncertainly, and he shook his head and said, "This is not a small number. There are more than 30 factories in total. You will need at least two million gold shields to contribute proportionally, and more than three million gold shields in the later stage. In the end, it is possible to exceed three million gold shields. ."
"Is it three million gold shields?" Ren readily agreed, "Okay, I'm out."
When he was looking through the information on the new factory just now, he had already calculated it silently. It was almost the same amount, and the investment was definitely worth it.
"You can get so much money!"
Akland was extremely surprised, Ren's understatement, as if he was not talking about three million gold shields, but three hundred gold shields. Even for himself, he has accumulated a rich net worth and assets in the tens of millions after years of operation, but it is a bit difficult to come up with so much cash.
"I have a little gain in Congatro." Ren said lightly.
Akland immediately understood, and couldn't help but envied: "I'm afraid it's more than a little..."
Ren smiled and said sternly: "I have invested so much money, but I have one requirement. I will set up an audit team to regularly review the motorcycle factory's accounts every six months to ensure that my money has not been embezzled, which is not excessive. Bar?"
"Yes." Akland nodded solemnly.
He also can't guarantee that the accounts of the motorcycle factory will be correct. There will always be people who take risks. Ren's audit team just happens to be a sharp sword in his hands.
Ren smiled with satisfaction, "I will have someone send the first money to the union tomorrow."
He stood up. "Now it's time to talk about me."
"What's up?"
"You'll know when you come with me."
With doubts, Akland followed Ren into the teleportation hall of the castle. He was not surprised when he saw the teleportation array. Ren was always uncertain, and had long guessed that there was a teleportation array in the castle.
However, Ren did not open the teleportation array, but stood by and waited.
After ten seconds.
The teleportation array trembled slightly, all the rune engraved lines lit up, and the void rippled like a water surface, gradually forming a vast energy vortex. A few minutes later, a tall teleportation gate opened in the center of the vortex.
Ren made a gesture of please and took the lead in walking in.
Akland quickly followed, passed through the portal, and found himself in an open courtyard surrounded by an ancient castle. He looked up and saw that it was snowing heavily in the sky, and the temperature was very cold, with bursts of cold. wind.
This is the Kingdom of Congatro!
Akland tightened his clothes and heard a young voice say, "Teacher."
He looked at the prestige and saw a thin, indifferent young man with a bit of evil in his temperament, who looked less than 20 years old, and was saluting to Ren.
Ren nodded and replied, "Raislin, you did a good job, let's go back to Wezeland first."
"is teacher."
Raistlin turned and entered the portal and disappeared.
Akalander watched the portal closed, and immediately understood that this teleportation array was actually set up by Ren's students, and even if it was just splicing the forged Mithril plates together, it also revealed extremely superb magical talent.
This student named Raistlin has been under Ren's sect for less than half a year. It is estimated that he is only a junior wizard, but he has mastered such profound magical knowledge.
"You're not an easy student." Akland was surprised.
He said this from the bottom of his heart, because he found that he could not see through Raistlin's strength, as if shrouded in a layer of fog. A dignified and legendary middle-level mechanic, but he couldn't understand a junior-level wizard, and he was afraid of being laughed at when he said it.
Ren secretly laughed, if you can see through it, you will be in hell.
"Raislin is my best student, and his future achievements will not be worse than mine." The corner of his mouth twitched, and he said playfully.
Akland was shocked, but he didn't expect Ren to rate Raistlin so highly.
You must know how famous Ren is in the empire now. Not only has he broken the record of the youngest legendary transcendent of the Duke of Redstone, but his strength is even more unfathomable.
The Legendary Beginner defeated the Legendary Advanced, and no one believed it before.
Many people study Ren and compare him with the famous heroes in history. Some even think that Ren is the most outstanding genius in human history, stronger than the young Emperor Alpha, who is similar to the Duke of Redstone and Ogrevi. The master is a character of a level, and it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to the Holy Spirit.
Although some people think that this is touting Rennes, it is an exaggeration.
But no one can deny Ren's talent and strength.
Now Ren said that his student Raistlin would be as successful as himself in the future, and Akland was suddenly startled and doubtful.
One Renn is amazing enough, if there is another Raistlin, what's the point?
"Akraland."
Ren called twice before Akland came back to his senses and asked aloud, "Where is this place in Congatro?"
"Dragon's Back Fort." Ren replied.
He opened any door leading to the high tower of the castle, overlooking the entire Dragon's Back City built on the top of the hill. At this moment, it was covered with heavy snow, and the vision was white. Not far from the south was the prosperous dragon forest. And to the east is an endless plain.
"I am going to do my best to build the Principality of Augustus."
Ren pointed to the city below and the land in the distance, and said: "When I say construction, I mean comprehensive mechanization, building roads and railways between cities, building schools and factories, and upgrading mining. The equipment of the Principality, where all the mechanical energy can be used, all use machinery, and the production and operation of the entire principality are powered by steam engines, and this will be a country built on steam engines.”
"Of course, the most important thing is to build a temple of the goddess and spread the brilliance of his wisdom."
"This requires a lot of participation from the mechanical union. Within three years, it is estimated that five million gold shields will be invested, and more will be invested in the next few decades."
"I will also provide some designs on mechanical products, which are definitely not much worse than the benefits of motorcycles. This is an opportunity for the mechanic union. What do you think?" Ren asked with a smile.
Akland's eyes brightened as he listened.
Especially when he heard "full mechanization", his breathing became even heavier, as if he saw a grand blueprint unfolding slowly in front of him.
Akland nodded without hesitation and said loudly: "On behalf of the Mechanical Union, I agree to cooperate with the Duke and participate in the construction of the Principality of Augustus!"
