Infrastructure starts from the game

What happened to the order of Academy City, Angel soon knew the reason.

Angel just walked into the back door of the magic gear when he heard the sound of quarreling, and the quarreling was still between Sir Mandela and Xiaoxue, two guys he thought were irreconcilable:

"This order is very important to our plans in Cesser—"

"Obviously I came first!"

Angel was a little confused when he saw this: "What happened?"

Sir Mandela and the blood elves were taken aback for a moment, then rushed towards the black robe:

"Master Angel!"

"Brother Angel!"

These two guys who are usually the best at observing words and expressions seem to have lost their minds. They seemed to ignore the possibility of Angor's anger. One took Angor's hand, the other hugged Angor's thigh, and told himself wronged.

While the two were talking, Angel finally understood the reason for their quarrel.

"That is to say, His Excellency Mandela placed an order at a price one and a half times the usual deposit, while Xiaoxue also placed an order after prepaying the entire payment, but now the workshop only has one batch of goods. When I handed it to Your Excellency, Xiao Xue, who came to urge the goods, saw it?"

Angel sorted out what happened.

Sir Mandela and Thorny Moon declared in unison:

"This batch was originally mine!"

Angel only looked at the black cat sitting on the coffee table.

No matter how you look at it, the delivery problem of this order is the fault of the magic gear, and this kind of "miscellaneous matter" is managed by Mithril, so Angel must of course look for it.

Mithril turned her head, and "meowed" with wide open eyes of different colors, trying to pretend to be an innocent kitten.

Of course Angel couldn't let it get by.

"Mithril, explain."

"Meow, it's just a small misunderstanding. Everyone's goods will be available soon, so don't worry meow." Mithril lost her usual confidence and only said in a sweet and greasy commercial tone.

"I've heard this sentence no less than ten times." The blood elf broke the stage, "The crystal ball on hand was out of stock half a month ago, and we paid the full price just because we wanted to ship it sooner! You gave it to someone else first—"

"What other people, my deployment in Shesser was also instructed by Lord Angel!" Sir Mandela yelled, "Besides, I am willing to pay double the high price for purchase!"

"Huh? It seems that the Eastern Realm is not the layout of the boss. For the boss, the Eastern Realm is more important!"

"A countryman like you doesn't know the power of a trading city!"

"What kind of power, it's just a money pot! The Eastern Realm is the boss's base!"

……

The two quarreled again.

Fortunately, these two are not crazy yet, no one dares to ask Angel himself to confirm "who is more important", otherwise Angel will have to take off the heads of these two and let them calm down.

Angel just stared at his housekeeper cat: "What's going on? Can't the production keep up?"

"No, after the singer came, the production room of the second workshop started production, and the output was barely okay," Mithril said with a guilty conscience, "Their order is too big."

"It's not big!"

The two spoke in unison again.

Jiyue said: "Boss Angel's order is to buy game tables and game crystals to all the sites I have sold. Now in order to consolidate the sites, I have slowed down the expansion trend as much as possible, but the demand in each place is very high. big!"

Sir Mandela also said: "Chesser has a population of 50 people! And most of them are upper-middle class, especially our products are exclusive products, the consumer demand is much higher than that of the backcountry."

At the end, Sir Mandela also added: "Master Angel, to be honest, since your product has started to go on the market, the output must keep up. Otherwise, tomorrow you will play magic crystal ball, crystal mirror and so on. will fill the entire market.”

"It's not that easy, they first have to bypass my secrecy magic."

Angel said confidently.

This is probably the biggest advantage of the wizarding world. With confidentiality magic, ordinary piracy will not exist unless there are more powerful mages who break the contract violently.

But if it is said that at the beginning, the secrecy magic of Angel, a middle-level mage, was easy to break, now that he has two city-level local area networks, there is basically no way for mages to bypass the secrecy magic. possibility.

"But your protection regulations are too loose." Thorny Moon has a lot of resentment about this: "As long as you can learn your set of magic principles and rune rules, as long as others make different games, it is not considered a pirated copy. It's too easy to get around."

"Because I'm not going to let my research results be lost." Angel said.

The disadvantage of secrecy magic is also here.

If a great magician develops a certain unique magic, he can use the secret magic to lock a certain upgrade tree. Unless a more powerful magician develops the same thing later, ordinary magicians will be finished. .

This is also the reason why many ancient forbidden curses are more powerful than the current forbidden curses.

The Balance faction, represented by the founder of Academy City, opposes this approach, and Angel's philosophy is the same. He is not willing to prohibit other people from developing magic games and obliterate the possibility of this industry, not to mention that he banned magic. On the game development side, the technology side on the other side will research something similar sooner or later.

"You have limited the confidentiality period of the game crystal to three years, and when the three years are up, other people will research similar products." Jiyue said.

Sir Mandela reached a consensus with Thorny Moon on this point: "We must distribute the goods as much as possible within three years and firmly seize the market."

This is also Angel's layout.

That's why he let these two be his agents before.

This brings the problem back to the beginning.

"So, what is the reason why the order cannot be completed?" Angel asked looking at Mithril.

"It's not impossible to finish..."

"Mithril!"

Angel raised his voice, and Mithril cat frowned.

The black cat rushed to the back of the vase on the coffee table, it clamped its two tails, lowered its head and said: "It could have been completed, but the scheduled materials have not been delivered."

This matter is Mithril's fault.

On the one hand, the orders given by Thorny Moon and Sir Mandela were really attractive. On the other hand, the singer returned to the team, and the second production room resumed production. Mithril wanted to make a big deal, so it took the two An order that it could not refuse, but who would have thought that the materials were not delivered as it expected, and as a result, all orders could not be completed.

This can be regarded as the biggest stain in Mithril's career as the alchemy workshop steward.

Today will also be Mithril's biggest dark history.

But Maomao felt wronged: "Some of those material suppliers have been cooperating for hundreds of years. I didn't expect them to go too far. Either they were out of stock, or they couldn't deliver, and the delivery was much later than expected. They were obviously not like this before. of."

Human beings are more fickle than cats.

"...Maybe it's not their fault."

Angel, however, thought of the accident that led him to meet the singer. If the accident happened not near Academy City, and Angel happened to be there, the car materials would definitely not be able to reach Cecilia, and in this case Should not be an isolated case.

Angel sent a hospitality cat to call the singer.

"In that case, there is indeed a problem," Singer listened to Angel's words, and nodded in agreement, "The town of Gelugelu where I was originally was the production place of the waste magic crystal, but with the magic With the decline of the industry, many young people have gone to Sensenata to find work, and the mines there will only be mined near the ground after an order is placed."

"But it's more of a traffic problem than the mine itself?" Thorny Moon also said.

During this period of time, he has been running around in the east as an agent of the game table, and he is actually more familiar with this aspect than the singer who cannot go out: "After all, the goblins and dwarves are still there. As long as there are orders, the mine can resume production. , The real trouble is the traffic. As Boss Angel said, there are too many accidents along the way, even if I act as an agent for the game table, I will try my best to take care of the towns along the railway, and other places can only take my time."

"Wait a minute, even if there is no railway, there are cars! The transportation should be more convenient!" Sir Mandela couldn't understand.

"That's you, Xie Siser! We are here in the Eastern Territory, the Eastern Territory that you say is 'barbaric and unreasonable, where monsters are rampant'. I don't know what will come out of the road here." Thorny Moon rolled her eyes.

Sir Mandela still didn't understand: "But hasn't His Majesty the Emperor already eradicated the monsters?"

The blood elf sneered and said: "It depends on the concept of the so-called monsters. The ones that the boss fished from the abyss are certainly monsters, but are slimes considered monsters? Are demonic wolves considered monsters? Can't spit wind blades?" But what about the kind of wolf that only strengthens its physical strength? In the end, am I considered a monster? Because of my racial talent, one can kill ten of you humans!"

"The new army is very useful for eradicating rebellion, but there is almost no way to deal with some wild and polluted natural phenomena. However, magic resources are inherently abundant in various dangerous places."

"In the age of magic, the protection of the convoy was the responsibility of the Adventurer's Guild and the Mercenary Guild, but in modern times, due to well-known reasons, these adventurers and mercenaries no longer exist."

The organization of Thorny Moon was transformed from the Mercenary Guild.

Jiyue also thought of this: "Boss, why don't I also undertake the delivery of materials here? According to my previous contacts, I can still find some suitable guides, but if this is the case, can you give me this batch of goods first?" ?”

The blood elf glanced at Sir Mandela proudly.

Sir Mandela snorted coldly.

He said to Angel: "The guide you found, I don't know how old it is! If you want me to say, the best way to solve this problem is to build roads! As long as there is a railway leading to the mining area, how much material will be needed?" I can pull it all out!"

"If you want to get rich, build roads first." Angel also agreed.

Sir Mandela showed a hint of complacency: "There are five railways from Chesser to Sensenata alone."

"However, it's impossible in the east," said Thorn Moon. "The terrain here is too complicated. It's difficult to build railways or roads, and no businessman is willing to invest in such a rural place!"

"Isn't it possible to use the magic gear now?" Sir Mandela said, and then he turned to Angor and said, "If Mr. Angel wants to invest in railways, please count me in!"

"I can do it too!" Jiyue hurriedly said.

"If you feel that there is a problem with funds, I can guarantee you that high-quality investors will come to Xiserla." Sir Mandela continued.

Jiyue gritted her teeth and said, "I can find a suitable guide for the construction of the railway survey."

"I can also go to Sensenata to invite suitable technician consultants and skilled workers."

"I..." Thorny Moon froze.

Obviously, in terms of the gameplay of remote control capital, Jiyue is slightly inferior.

Angel ignored the quarrel between the two, and said to himself:

"That's right! The railway here is privately owned."

"...Singer, come with me, I have something to discuss with you."

Not knowing what Angor was thinking about, he then called his technical advisor away, leaving Thorny Moon and Sir Mandela staring at him.

"Mr. Angel, do you want to invest in railways?"

Mayor Owen came running over during dinner, and asked with sparkling eyes.

Angel looked at Thorny Moon and Sir Mandela.

I saw that the two of them turned their heads away guiltily, as if they were both leaking secrets.

Forget it, he really wanted to discuss this matter with Owen.

Angel pulled Owen closer to the living room, and shut the door of Thorny Moon and Mandela.

Then it's not something they can listen to—

"It's not my investment, it's Cecilia City Hall's investment. If you don't have enough money, I can borrow it." Angel said, "I can also make unconditional investment in technology, but the city hall must do this. thing."

Owen's smile didn't change.

But judging from his reaction, it seemed that he didn't understand what Angel was saying at all.

Anger looked at his expression, and said seriously: "Magic Gear is just an alchemy workshop, I'm just a businessman and a capitalist, I will only choose places that are beneficial to me to build railways, do you really think that, let me Is it a good thing that such people control things that have a major impact on people's livelihood?"

"But..." Mayor Owen's lips moved, and he said strangely, "It's even worse that these controls are in the hands of the government?"

Owen actually didn't want to say too much.

From the royal capital to Cecilia, from the royal capital to Cecilia, from the royal capital to Sensenata, these three railways were all built by the royal family, but they took longer to build than private railways, and their technology was also older. The funds are still wrangling, and it is these three railways that have caused a huge deficit. It is said that the emperor wanted to build a few more railways back then, but they had to stop because of the large deficit. Disadvantages, if the city government is allowed to build it, Cecilia's economy will never be developed.

But why did His Excellency Angel make such a request?

He should understand that this is harming his interests, right?

"Could it be because of my friendship?" Owen's tone was turbulent. "Your willingness to invest in railways is already considered my political achievement! And according to the current mayoral election system, I must retire sooner or later. If you give control of the railway to those moths, I don't know what they will do in the future."

"Then check!"

"Hey?"

"It's like the air patrol, regardless of status or class, only those who pass the assessment can take up the post, and all must start from the bottom and gradually climb up based on seniority." Angel said.

Owen looked at Angel, his expression gradually became serious.

He noticed that the black robe was not simply discussing the railway with him today, but something more serious.

"Your Excellency Angel, what are you..."

"Cecilia of the magic gear will not become a nobleman, but Cecilia of the magic gear may become a capitalist," Angel said, "It is me who is here now, when I am no longer me, or what I think What about when it changes? Do you really want me to exist without constraints?"

That night, this conversation reached the ears of Duke Dongjing.

It wasn't that Duke Roy had a monitoring magic gear, but that Mayor Owen felt that the conversation was not meant for him, so he used some tricks and handed it over to Duke Roy.

"Is this a suggestion from... the sage?"

Duke Dongjing asked in a deep voice.

"According to Owen's guess, His Excellency Cecilia's opinion may be to reform the entire city hall system." His steward said, "And this opinion is not from the black robe himself, but from the forces he represents. .”

"Power without representation."

"Hey?"

"I have a different opinion from Owen's group of old guys. Maybe the black robe doesn't represent any power. He's just Cecilia," said Duke Roy. Siria."

"... Judging from his speech today, there is some truth to it." The housekeeper bowed his head.

Duke Roy murmured a few words.

He suddenly looked up to the other side of the sofa, where his son and daughter were sitting.

When someone reported the news just now, Duke Roy did not avoid them.

Now Duke Roy asked his daughter and son: "What do you think? Do you want to support His Excellency Angel's opinion and conduct assessments on government officials?"

Recifia didn't answer, but only raised her eyebrows.

"Oh?" Lucini was stunned, he looked at his father, then at his sister, and then realized that he was the eldest son of the family and had to speak, so he replied, "No, no! Doesn't that mean that the most humble commoner has the opportunity to become the mayor? But, but only the chosen bloodline is noble..."

"Did they teach you this in the capital?" Duke Roy asked.

Seeing his father's majestic expression, Lucini trembled: "No, isn't it right?"

"No, from the emperor's standpoint, that's right!" Duke Dongjing sneered.

"That's right, if it wasn't the will of the gods, how did that kind of fat become the king!" Recifia muttered.

But then she looked at her younger brother: "But, that doesn't apply to our family, because the brave man comes from what you said is the most humble commoner!"

"No! The brave is the chosen one!" Lucini said anxiously.

He was very skillful in denying it, and it was definitely not the first time he said something like this.

Recifia immediately noticed this, and she asked: "Do the nobles in the capital admit this? Didn't they say that the nouveau riche in the Eastern Realm is ashamed of the nobles? How funny! We, as the Eastern Realm Lords have outlasted some kingdoms, and they will never recognize us."

"But, but His Majesty admits...cough cough cough!" Lucini coughed violently.

Of course His Majesty admitted it, although he didn't want to admit it at all.

Seeing this, Duke Roy shook his head helplessly, and asked the housekeeper to feed his son the medicine.

Duke Roy looked at his daughter: "Leia, do you agree with Your Excellency Angel? You know it? Maybe this is digging our roots."

"So what? We have a better background than civilians, more money, and better teachers. If we are afraid of losing, this kind of idiot should understand his position earlier. Wouldn't it be better to hide at home and play games?" ?!" Recifia raised her head proudly.

She took a slight breath: "What's more, the reform has already begun. The election system created by the emperor is fundamentally intended to take away our territory, but in fact the city hall is full of moths for show! Although Mayor Owen is a good person , but I must objectively say that in the age of magic, blood races cannot rule human beings openly! The only luck is that the vampire they chose only eats tomatoes and does not eat people! It is also because the previous Cecilia did not How much blood can be sucked! But other places may not be sure."

"You think a lot!" Duke Roy was a little surprised.

Recifia smiled wryly.

Can she not think too much?If you don't want anything, you have to marry that piece of fat!

Recifia said: "Of course, Father, it's okay if you don't want to. I don't think Master Cecilia may require you to implement it. After all, he is only a sage, and it is just a suggestion."

"Suggestion?" Duke Roy asked.

The butler glanced at the eldest lady, bowed his head and said to the Duke: "But if you support Lord Cecilia's opinion, now is the best opportunity... The emperor is ill."

Duke Roy said seriously: "Are you sure?"

"One hundred percent, and it's the kind that can't get out of bed." The housekeeper said softly.

Duke Roy did not doubt the other party at all, but only showed a contemplative look.

Is it really a coincidence to propose such a plan at this time?

Or is it Master Cecilia...

He suddenly looked at his son: "Lucini, are you about to go to school this fall?"

"……Yes?"

"Don't go to public school, go to free school!"

"Hey?"

"Let's just go to... the compulsory school that Cecilia's Excellency conducted the pilot."

Regardless of his son's shocked eyes, Duke Roy muttered to himself the family motto: "Don't get too close to him, and don't get too far away from him, make sure it's genuine, hug your thigh..."

Alchemy Workshop Magic Gear

Angel and Singer are discussing something in the design room.

The singer asked hesitantly: "Master, if the mayor does not agree to the official investment, will you stop building the railway?"

"Of course not, I still have to fix it." Nothing stopped him from building the network.

"Then why..."

"It's just an invisible proposal," Angel said, "If they don't want to hear it, I won't say anything, I will just wait silently for the next brave man who is willing to listen to me; or the brave man finds It’s not me, but another sage, but if this continues, he will appear one day, and what I have to do now is to ensure that he can appear, instead of being eaten by monsters, this is the fate of the mage.”

Rather, it is a bad habit of a sage.

Anyway, regardless of whether the suggestion is true or false, the consequences are almost ignored, and all are thrown to a certain unlucky ghost called the brave.

Angor does not reject such a tradition at all.

He can't go against himself!

This kind of sage's mind, of course, normal people can't figure it out.

The singer nodded half-understood: "Well."

"Okay! This kind of boring thing is fine!" An Ge said.

He unfolded the blueprint in his hand, and asked the singer: "I just want to know, is there any difficulty in implementing this technically? If so, where do you think the difficulties are?"

Singer wanted to say something, but he was immediately attracted by the picture on the drawing.

It was a train.

It was a train traveling through the sky.
