On the third day after autumn, the Margaret Chamber of Commerce arrived at the Bianfeng Town Pier as promised.
This time, the caravan returned to its former scale, with ten sailboats lined up in a row and docked steadily beside the pier.
Dear Prince, we meet again. Gamore, a merchant from the Fir Moon Bay, bowed and said, "Ms. Margaret said that the first steamboat has been transformed?"
That's true, Roland smiled, but in order to ensure the quality of the product, it still needs three or four days of trial voyage to verify the reliability of the power system.
It's really exciting. Marland clapped his hands. It took almost so many days for the fleet to unload the cargo, so we can definitely wait here.My Highness, can I board a steamboat for a tour during the trial voyage?
Of course, it is a brand new ship after all, which is completely different from previous sailboats. I have to tell you how to operate it.But as planned, these are tomorrow's content.Roland made a gesture to me. The most important thing now is to relax your tired body. You haven’t had lunch yet, right?I had prepared a sumptuous banquet in the castle living room.
Every time I come to you, I will have a delicious meal. Margaret smiled and covered my mouth and said, "I am indeed so hungry that I screamed that the wheat cakes and jerky are as hard as stones, and it is hard to swallow."
There is no reliable preservation technology in this era, so most dry foods are really dry and hard, which reminds Roland of canned food.
After the light industry develops, manufacturing a variety of delicious and convenient canned food is definitely the best choice for long-distance travel and sailing merchants.
……
After the banquet, Hogg patted his belly with satisfaction. This bowl of mushroom soup almost made me swallow my tongue. I seemed to have tasted the taste of Haizhen, stewed chicken and pork bones at the same time. Your court chef is really skilled.
I prefer the dessert that comes after the meal, which is called ice cream... right?Margaret said, I guess it should be made of milk and honey and then frozen into ice crystals with saltpeter.
You also need to add some butter and egg white, otherwise you won’t be so soft, Roland added, I wonder what the amount of saltpeter is this time?
There was still only one ship, the businesswoman shook his head, the Alchemist Association was still buying saltpeter on a large scale, and the former Prime Minister even sent a patrol team to assist them in plundering goods from the nitrogen yard.A group of guys with the name of a sage bought it is no different from a robber. This ship of saltpeter was transported from Chishui City.
So most of the goods shipped this month are washing stones?
That's right, Hogg drank all the white wine in his glass and filled it with himself. Although the quantity may be a bit large, I remember it in my heart what you said in person last time.In addition to the washing stone, there are also excellent iron and lead ingots.Recently, few towns except you have needed these things. He sighed, "Mining business is getting harder and harder."
This is the impact of the civil war. Roland thought to himself that purchasing power in various places is gradually declining. If it lasts for another two or three years, it will basically be the rhythm of rising food prices and starvation everywhere.
By the way, what happened recently in the Western Region?Margaret suddenly asked.
What's wrong?
On the way to the town, the fleet encountered a lot of... Well, she paused for a moment, as if thinking about the wording, a lot of floating corpses.They were dressed in tatters and floated on both sides of the river.In addition to the corpse, there were also some broken wooden boards and ropes on the water, as if a boat had hit a reef and sank.But there are no reefs in the inland river, so I think...
Humph, that was the fleet of Tifeko invading the Western Frontier. Roland pretended to be indignant and briefly told the battle a week ago. They had received the punishment they deserved.
In order to avoid blocking the waterway and spreading the disease, after cleaning up the battlefield, he transferred Anna and Lily from the town, one responsible for incineration of damaged ships and the other responsible for purifying the river.
The floating corpse that Margaret saw should be the dead man who had already drifted along the river before the end of the battle.
So that's it, the businesswoman smiled.
It seems that both sides of Tifeike are going to hit a wall.
Both sides?
There is also the latest news that I have received is that the unknown robbers who attacked the eastern city before were Jiasia's men.After the Black Sail Fleet robbed Haifeng County and Jinsui City, it did not return to the harbor, but went north along the coastline. No one knew where she ended up going.
Going north... Roland said in surprise, did she leave Gray Castle?
It seems that the moment is that Tifeko's men were empty in Bishui Port, which is now an empty city.Margaret stated that because there were a lot of mice among the people he brought, this incident was not a secret in the Black Street.No matter what, you are the only thorn in his eyes now, and invasions against the Western Region may become more and more frequent in the future.
If you want to leave Grayburg, Crane Moon Bay is always welcome, Marland spoke.
That's right, Gamore patted his chest, the island there was enough to hold ten border towns, and we were willing to provide it to you and your people for free.
But hand over the technology of steam engines and paddle ships, right?
Roland rolled his eyes in his heart. Even if Gray Castle can't stay, the first choice to join Tilly Wimbledon should be Tilly Wimbledon.
But on the surface he just smiled, right? If there really was such a day, I would consider it.
By the way, then he looked at Margaret, I have successfully made two of the scout balloons you ordered last time.
So fast?The latter was surprised and said, can you take me to see it?
Of course, come with me.Roland stood up and said.
……
In the castle's extended backyard, there is a fully inflatable hydrogen balloon.
Its airbag is water droplet-shaped, wide at the top, narrow at the bottom, and a diameter of five meters on the top. It is made completely according to the size of the test subject and can carry an adult man to the air.
The airbags and ropes are painted with sky camouflage, and paired with the observer's camouflage clothes, can minimize recognition.
It seems to be different from the balloon we rode last time?Margaret looked at the new product carefully.
Because it can be used without a witch, Roland cleared his throat and began to introduce to everyone how to use the reconnaissance balloon. The airbag has a movable valve at the end, which can fill and release gas. It is precisely because this alchemy gas fills it, so that it can fly.The method of inflation is very simple. Just connect the supporting hose to the gas storage tank and unscrew the valves at both ends.After saying that, he demonstrated the operation procedures of deflation and inflation in public.
How many tanks are needed to fill a scout balloon?Margaret quickly grabbed the point.
Five or six bottles... This question made Roland a little embarrassed, at most no more than seven bottles.The main reason is that the dilute sulfuric acid concentration used to generate hydrogen in the bottle is difficult to control. It is too wasteful of valuable labor in the laboratory by distilling sulfuric acid to 98%.
Is this alchemy gas very expensive?
That's true.It is difficult to preserve and full of danger... I mean, under careless operation, Roland coughed twice, so the gas tank can only be stored for one year, and it must not be knocked, dismantled or incinerated, otherwise unpredictable serious consequences may occur.He paused. Although the price was a bit expensive, he was relieved. When he was investigating the balloons for the first time, the first batch of gas storage tanks were provided free of charge by Bianfeng Town, and he could also receive an additional Sky Camouflage Scout Clothes.
This time, the caravan returned to its former scale, with ten sailboats lined up in a row and docked steadily beside the pier.
