my age of magic

Chapter 1110 213. About a Good News
There is still an endless stream of large magic caravans going to and from the North Duisburg blacksmith shop. The ten chimneys in the workshop stand like ten titans, and the billowing smoke above their heads is in the air. Ten billowing columns of smoke were formed, slanting towards the southeast.People living in the Seventh Street can clearly know what kind of wind is blowing that day just by looking up at the smokestacks on the ten chimneys standing in the Seventh Street before going out.

I, Alia, came to North Duisburg this time to order punches for magic engraving machines. Among the blacksmith workshops in the imperial capital, I counted them in detail. Probably only North Duisburg blacksmiths have such a large Production capacity of forged parts.In addition, a batch of black iron trousers and black iron heavy boots should be ordered for those barbarian slaves.

With the victories of the plane wars, the imperial army seized a large amount of black iron on the battlefield, especially after the end of the Kenda plane war, after a large number of Nacoma black iron armor and ordnance poured into the imperial capital, it directly lowered the increased the selling price of black iron products.Many high-end metal products in the imperial capital are basically made of precision forged steel brought from the dwarven kingdom, but now many metal products in the blacksmith workshop of the imperial capital are gradually being processed by cheaper black iron.

Earl Robert, the owner of the North Duisburg workshop, warmly received Alia and I. Compared with five months ago, Earl Robert looked more ruddy, and his laughter became louder. Come to a spacious reception room in the workshop.

"Miss Alia, you are still as beautiful as ever." Earl Robert sat on the soft leather sofa and complimented Alia.

The maids put some fruits and refreshments on the square table.

Aliya smiled coquettishly, her eyes followed the glass window of the reception room, and she could just see the busy scene in the workshop. She put on a layer of light makeup today, which made her look less enchanting, but more A bit of youthful vigor, and her fair skin made her look much younger. She said to Earl Robert: "Earl Robert, you can really talk. It seems that your workshop is busier than before. Isn't it the most luscious in the imperial capital?" Your steel business has been snatched by you?"

"No, it's just barely maintained. You also know that after the outbreak of the plane war, all walks of life are not in a good mood. Now it's just a blessing for the victory of the Tokenda plane war. Several batches of black iron smelting orders have been received. The situation is a little bit worse. Get better." Earl Robert narrowed his eyes, staring at Alia's face, with a look of admiration in his eyes, smiled bitterly, and said to her: "You haven't been here for a long time since the light steel rail was delivered. coming."

Aaliyah narrowed her eyes and said with a raised mouth, "How long has it been? I thought those light rail deliveries were last week!"

After finishing speaking, Aliya asked her personal maid Betty to take out the sheepskin drawings prepared in advance and spread them on the square table.

She leaned forward, covered the white and deep cleavage on her chest with her hands when leaning over, pointed to the punch on the drawing and said to Earl Robert: "We are here this time to see if you can do it here. this!"

Earl Robert stared at Alicia's sexy collarbone, his eyes straightened.

Alicia coughed lightly, and Earl Robert came back to his senses. He smiled a little awkwardly, his eyes fell on the drawing, and he looked at it carefully for a long time. His face changed from relaxed to heavy. Say, "Go get Chris Andy over here."

Mr. Goss was still the same, wearing a pair of gray and white silk breeches, a white shirt that was pressed neatly, and his hair was combed meticulously. Say to Mrs. Alia: "Alia, long time no see, why do you have time to come to us?"

After finishing speaking, Mr. Goss saluted me and said, "Hello, Your Excellency Jijia Magician."

Aliya is very familiar with Chris Andy Goss. She stretched her brows and said to the manager Goss: "Goss, it's a good thing for you to have business coming to you."

Earl Robert hesitated for a moment, and asked him: "Goss, come and see, can such a large forging be moved by the steam hammer in the workshop?"

Goss gracefully took out a pair of glasses from his coat pocket, hung them on the bridge of his nose, and walked to the square table. He frowned and looked at the sheepskin drawings on the square table. His eyes fell on the thin lines, and there was a saying Unable to concentrate, he is the kind of person who lives a clean, tidy and refined life. When Aliya looked at him, there was a hint of appreciation in her eyes.

He thought for a long time, then raised his head and said to Robert, "You can give it a try."

Hearing what Goss said, Earl Robert took out a handkerchief and wiped the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and said to Mrs. Alia: "For us, this is a test."

Afterwards, I ordered another five hundred sets of black iron trousers and five hundred sets of black iron heavy boots from Earl Robert.

At present, there is a large amount of black iron in the market in the imperial capital. It is said that many blacksmiths will persuade customers to replace fine steel ingots with black iron. The manager of the blacksmith workshop in North Duisburg, Goss, suggested to us that these armors should be made of black iron. To build, during this period, the black iron sold in the imperial capital market is the most cost-effective.

Calculated carefully, black iron is still slightly more expensive than fine steel ingots, but black iron is considered the lowest level of magic metal with the property of guiding magic, and red copper has always been used in the rune plates of the lowest-end magic tools. (In fact, some low-end magic tools account for the largest manufacturing cost of the core part of the metal rune plate, and the largest manufacturing cost of the low-end metal rune plate is not the magic metal material, but the manufacturing cost of the inscriber.)
If magic lines can be engraved on these armors made of black iron in the future, these armors will have powerful magic attributes, which is the true value of black iron armor.

No matter what will happen to these black iron trousers in the future, anyway, I was persuaded by Mr. Goss, and then I ordered all the black iron trousers in one go.

It’s just that no one, including Alia, thought that the black iron trousers I customized would be so big. They didn’t think that the black iron trousers I customized would consume more black iron than a normal set of armor. The giant pant armor that consumes more black iron, when I took out a woodcut leg-like model of a barbarian, even Aliya showed a look of shock.

These two thick and big legs are a head taller than my height, and the heels of the legs are as thick as a water tank. I put forward some requirements to Mr. Goss, and asked that the thickness of the black iron armor should be able to withstand ordinary throwing from 600 meters away. Flying spears cannot cause penetrating damage to trouser armor, and this alone requires the thickness of the armor layer to be no less than a finger.

The manager, Mr. Goss, exaggeratedly said loudly: "My God! How much black iron will be used? This amount of black iron is enough for an ordinary little lord to build a luxurious black iron heavy armored infantry regiment with more than a thousand people." , Magician Ji Jia, you actually only made six hundred sets of trousers and heavy boots, this is really too exaggerated, you don’t want to sell your black iron trousers to those four-legged Nacoma people!”

Earl Robert couldn't help laughing, and said loudly: "Haha! Those Nacomas have four thick thighs and a big thick tail!"

Mr. Goss said to me solemnly: "But to be honest, Your Excellency Jijia Magician, the size of your pant armor is exactly the same as that of the Nacoma half-body armor. It’s full of this Nacoma black iron half-body armor!”

I sat on the sofa and said to them: "Everyone, I want to build an army of giants. Is there anything wrong?"

Chris Andy Goss immediately stood up and said respectfully, "Of course, it's a great honor to help you."

Earl Robert adjusted his sitting posture. He put his left leg on the knee of his right leg, and wanted to reach for the cigar box on the square table, but found that Alia frowned slightly, and immediately gave up calmly. He retracted his hand for support. On the armrest of the sofa, he turned his head and asked me: "It's just about the consumed magic black iron ingots. Do you plan to purchase them outside, or use the stocks in our workshop?"

"What's the difference?" I said.

Earl Robert gently rubbed his forehead with his hands, and said, "Oh, in fact, it's only a small amount. It might be cheaper to use the black iron ingots provided by our workshop."

I blinked, glanced at Alia, and saw that she did not express any objection, which meant that Earl Robert's proposal was acceptable.

So I said: "Then why should I not choose the black iron ingots of North Duisburg?"

When Robert heard the answer, he immediately smiled and said, "Master Jijia, you have made a wise choice!"

Heavy armor is divided into two forms: scale armor and plate armor. The scale armor is inlaid with armor pieces on the tight leather armor. This kind of armor pieces are not necessarily all magic metal pieces. It is said that the high-end armor pieces are all made of dragon scales. The plate armor is made by hanging metal plates on the hard leather lining, the plate armor is thicker, and the physique and strength of the warriors who can wear this armor need to be very good.

The black iron trouser armor I customized belongs to the heavy plate armor. In addition to the black iron material, I also need to choose the material used to make the hard leather lining. In fact, this heavy plate armor is considering the firmness, etc. For other issues, the hard leather armor lining also needs to choose durable leather, the most common one is the rawhide of bison, which is cheap and durable.

The North Duisburg Blacksmith Workshop has a specially cooperative leather shop. As long as I choose the type of leather, the leather maker will sew hard leather pants according to the leg-like model I provided.It’s just a piece of black iron trousers. Earl Robert’s quotation for me is 35 magic crystals. If I customize the black iron heavy boots, I need to add another [-] magic crystals, which is [-] sets of black iron trousers. With the black iron heavy boots, I need to pay [-] magic crystals.

Counting the [-] magic crystals spent on the [-] Nacoma half-armors purchased at a private auction, but preparing armor and weapons for these barbarian slaves, I have already invested nearly [-] magic crystals. spar.

To be honest, if it weren’t for the Stargazers Guild who bought more than 4000 magic crystals to buy my fish skin hood at the "Magic Weave of Life" demonstration, even if I have the treasure of the Pirate King and the spider silk of the magic weave It is possible to customize this heavy magic armor with such arrogance.

When paying the deposit, Earl Robert couldn't help taking a breath when he saw that I took out a magic sealing box directly from the magic pocket.

I placed the heavy magic sealing box on the floor of the reception room, and the box fell to the floor, making a dull impact sound.Afterwards, I opened the magic sealing box, revealing a whole box of magic spar inside. This magic sealing box just contained [-] magic spar.

Before I could say the amount of magic spar, Earl Robert looked at me with a look of emotion. It can be seen that he clearly knows the approximate quantity of this box of magic spar. How could the boss of Fort not know how many magic crystals can be contained in a magic sealing box?

Earl Robert asked me with some uncertainty: "These are..."

I squatted in front of the magic sealing box, reached out and grabbed a handful of magic spar, threw them back into the box, and said to Earl Robert: "This is the cost of forging the printing head and making the black iron leg armor this time. It just so happens that we have plenty of money in hand, so we can make a one-time delivery. The reputation of North Duisburg Blacksmith Workshop is still trustworthy. Although we only customized a printing head this time, it is only a sample. If If the test of this printing head goes well, I think the next order will not be smaller than the order of this batch of black iron armor."

Earl Robert did not hide the surprise on his face. He rubbed his hands excitedly, walked to the front of the magic sealing box, and said to me excitedly: "Hey... this is really exciting news, Mr. A generous man, then I will immediately let Chris Andy do this, and put the production cycle of the black iron trousers on the agenda."

"Please take more trouble." I said to Count Robert.

After talking about these things, Earl Robert and Mr. Goss personally sent us to the gate. When Alia and I walked out of North Duisburg and boarded the magic caravan, Alia pursed her sexy lips, looking very charming. Zhongdi glanced at me and asked me, "Where shall we go next?"

I opened the car window a little to let the cool wind blow into the car, and then said to Alia: "Didn't you also order a batch of high-grade white rock rhinoceros leather for me? Let's go and buy those high-grade rhinoceros hides first." Come back, and then find a bigger leather shop, and ask them to make these high-grade leather into hard leather armor, I am preparing to tailor a batch of magic pattern armor for orc warriors."

Aliya sat next to me, took my arm, and asked me: "Do you really want to form an army and become the lord of the plane?"

I said, "Is there anything wrong?"

"..."

She didn't say anything, just shook her head slightly.

"Are you worried about me?" I couldn't help but reached out and pinched her white chin, sucked on her sexy lips, and said, "Don't worry, the war of planes is not as terrible as you think, maybe there is If you have a chance, I will take you to see my battlefield and blow the hot and humid south wind from the Yero plane."

"You've decided, haven't you?" Alicia asked me.

"The matter was settled five months ago. I plan to build a small town there first." I nodded and admitted.

Then I sighed again: "Speaking of...the plan still hasn't changed so quickly! If I had known that such advanced hard leather armor would be made so quickly, I wouldn't have spent so much effort making those giant crocodile leather armors."

Aliya took my arm, leaned her head on my shoulder, and murmured, "Jijia, how many secrets do you have?"

I chuckled and asked her, "Do you think I'm like a golden mountain that can never be dug out?"

Aliya twisted my arm hard, pushed me away, and said angrily, "You're such a stinky fart."

She then threw a bunch of keys on me.

I took the bunch of keys and asked her, "What is this?"

Alia said to me, "The key to the warehouse in the airport town, five hundred sets of Nacoma black iron half-body armor is placed there, and you can take it away at any time."

I sighed and said, "Hey, with your help, it seems to be very easy."

Hearing what I said, Aliya seemed a little proud, and said to me: "In the past few days, there have been some news about you from the Magic Guild."

I raised my eyebrows and asked her, "What news, good? Bad?"

Alicia said to me: "It's good news!"

Since it is good news, of course you should listen to it.

So I said to her: "Speak and listen!"

There was an irresistible beauty in Alia's eyes. She pursed her lips and said, "I heard that the House of Representatives of the Magic Union held a second vote on the 'Magic Pattern of Life' on the fish skin hood. At the meeting, it was proposed to hold another inscription demonstration meeting, and the fish skin hood made at the demonstration meeting will be presented to the inscription masters present!"

I was a little surprised and said: "Ah... this doesn't sound like a good thing at all!"

Aliya said: "I heard that this topic has caused heated discussions in the voting meeting of the House of Representatives, and many great magicians agreed with it, but at the final vote, half of the magicians voted against it!"

I breathed a sigh of relief, and praised: "There is still such a thing? These people are really cute!"

Aliya smiled mysteriously and said to me, "Do you know why?"

I shook my head and said honestly: "... I don't know!"

Alia's eyes sparkled, and she said to me excitedly: "I heard that the voting process was quite exciting at that time. It is said that several court magicians belonging to the Angibald royal family voted against it one after another. Probably They wanted to sell Prince James a favor. Maybe they thought that even if they voted against it, it would not change the final result. Afterwards, almost all of the Royal Academy of Magic, Imperial Academy of Magic, Water Magicians Guild, and Stargazers Guild The magicians all voted against, and the magicians from the provinces of Sloit, Dulva, Trestina, Bena, Haines City and other local forces also stood up and voted against, Jijia , when did you know so many great wizards?"

"No, I don't know them at all!" I said to Alia in a daze.
