Release that Witch

543. Chapter 543 Turning Point

    When Roland saw Barov again, it felt like he saw another person.

    Not only did the look seem to be radiant, but even the chest was raised a lot. There was a voice between the steps, and a full confidence came over. It was not like a veteran of nearly fifty years old.

    It seems that he is very contented at For several days in Kingdom Capital.

    “I knew you should have called you back later.”Roland teased.

    “No, Your Majesty, City of Dawn is no longer prosperous, nor is it comparable to Neverwinter City, which you created by yourself.”Barov shook his beard. “No matter where I am, my heart is always with you.”

    This is why…Sounds so weird?

    He coughed twice and switched the subject. “How about the situation over there?”

    “You can rest assured that there are my apprentices and the First Army. The newly appointed noble can’t be moved even if you want to make trouble,” Premier Minister said smugly. “I also deliberately relaxed their space for power, as long as they don’t interfere with City of Dawn. People’s livelihood matters are working properly then it will be alright. It is estimated that for a long time in the future, they will be intrigued by the power of sesame size – after all, they did not even qualify for City Hall. ”

    “This is a good way.”Roland laughed.

    He also knows a little about the political checks and balances, but he knows that it’s better not to be better than the old foxes who have been stalking for a long time. Even if they are not the most sneaky foxes, they win over. Thick enough, means enough to poison. It can be said that Barov has played all his talents until now.

    Regarding the identity of the king of a country, Roland can completely avoid having to get involved in the dirty political tricks. As long as the personnel, the law and the military power are held in the hands, no one dares to blame him.

    “Your Majesty, I can ask, where have you sent the Minister of Finance Lauren Moore?”Barov wish to continue sighed, “The ceremonial officer of the palace said that you did not execute him.”

    “He deducted the relief rations issued to the public and colluded with the former Imperial Prime Minister. He also had a copy of the forced refugees.”Roland shrugged. “Sin is not dead. It is not suitable for the mining site when it is old. It is simply expelled.”

    “That is really…Unfortunately…

    “What, you want to use him?”

    “Of course not, Lauren is quite influential at Kingdom Capital. I don’t know that the little noble can hold him back,” Barov smiled and shook his head. “Just he was my mentor, pressed me for so long, failed. I was a little sorry to see his expression of regret and remorse for mercy.”

    Roland couldn’t help but laugh. “I think he should go home to the Kingdom of Dawn, maybe you will have a chance to meet later.” Not to mention this, I am coming back to you to create several new factories, which are related to the next major transformation of Neverwinter City. ”

    “A lot of people are needed?”

    “Yes, otherwise I will only tell Karl then it will be alright,” he nodded. “At least 3,000 people are needed.”

    Barov smiled bitterly. “Only you will ask for it. Other cities simply have an industry that has a one-time investment of 3,000 people.”

    “The good news is that these three thousand people don’t have to be literate, as long as there are more than two hundred citizens who have completed the primary education.”

    “What do you want to build?”

    Roland put the already prepared notebook in front of him, “coke plant, steel mill and forging plant.”

    “Is Miss Anne producing enough steel?”Asked Barov.

    “Not enough, it’s too wasteful,” Roland sighed. “Her magic power should be invested in higher-end manufacturing, not on Steam engine materials. I plan to achieve the “de-itching” of basic industrial products this year. ”

    Now that Neverwinter City’s industry is at a turning point. If you don’t seek a breakthrough, it’s hard to get in. The reason is that the source power machinery still can’t do without Anna’s material support, which can’t expand the scale. In fact, the Steam engine is completely used. Less than that good steel, the small town of the first generation was built with cast iron.

    Nowadays, the pre-conditions required for the breakthrough have been met. Coking can be done in coal mines. Coke is the main material for large-scale steelmaking. The ten blast furnaces in the furnace area can also supply sufficient pig iron ingots. The simple converter smelts the steel, and then the steam hammer of the forging factory forges the components that can be directly processed by other factories. If this process can be recycled, the liberation of Anna can be completely liberated, and the production can be realized by ordinary people. Process.

    After Roland explained the main work of the three projects, Barov quickly understood the meaning of “de-itching.”

    “I understand, but Your Majesty, can these really be achieved?”He wondered, “Don’t rely on Devil – cough, the power of witch, we can get steel so easily? You may not know that in other cities, the price of a piece of forged steel is twenty times more expensive than the pig iron. ”

    The steel of this era was hammered out by a blacksmith, hammer and hammer. By repeatedly beating the pig iron ingot, the excess carbon and impurities in the iron were oxidized by the air to form steel. Of course, this process is extremely inefficient, and it will waste a lot of raw materials – many irons will fall off due to oxidation, resulting in several pieces of iron ingots that can only produce one piece of steel. Therefore, a set of steel cast body armor is the pursuit of most of Knight’s life, and can also be passed down from generation to generation as a family heirloom.

    From a certain point of view, the “100-forging into steel” method can give people the illusion that concentration is the essence. Now that Neverwinter City can produce “massive” steel, which is the credit of most people, Barov’s suspicion is not difficult to understand, but for Roland, steel is nothing but iron with different carbon content.

    “Of course it’s not easy, whether it’s coking or converter steelmaking, it’s a technique that needs to be explored repeatedly, but…”Roland paused, “These projects will certainly be realized. By then, the industrial area will count hundreds of chimneys, and the monthly steel output will exceed the current one-year output. We will be inexhaustible steel, bicycles, ships, all kinds of machines, and even houses. Everything you see will be made of steel. It will go into everyone’s home, even ordinary people. Steel vessels and tools can also be used. ”

    Barov has been stunned for a while, and he has been open for a long time. “I will prepare a recruitment plan and financial grants for you to see as soon as possible.”

    “Well, the preliminary preparations for this matter will be handed over to you,” Roland encouraged.

    When he walked to the door of the office, he suddenly turned around and gave him a chest.

    “If you can really see such a world, it will be my honor, Your Majesty.”
