The Legend of the Great Wilderness

Chapter 324 Crystal Palace

Except for some products made of steel in a small amount, Guyi has always strictly prohibited the outflow of strategic materials such as steel, resulting in a small amount of steel circulating to the outside world, and the price is not lower than the market price of [Black Iron] from the outside world. The price of ten thousand gold.

According to the reference price given by the other party, the 3000 billion gold required to buy ten [wind boats] is less than the price of one thousand tons of steel. If one thousand tons of steel is exchanged for ten flying space carriers, Is it worth it?

This... this... It seems that everyone has a different opinion, and each takes what he needs.

Although the large-scale construction of [Qingshi Ling] requires a large amount of steel, it is no problem to squeeze out a thousand tons of steel. Although limited by the smelting technology, [Qingshi Ling] cannot be as fast and efficient as in Gu Yi's original world. Large-scale steelmaking, but the technology is not enough and the manpower is not enough. It doesn't matter if the output of a single furnace is low, just build more furnaces.

With the further deduction and reproduction of steel smelting technology in "Dawn Laboratory", as well as the recent large-scale application of automated industrial robots, a large number of workers and civilians have been liberated from heavy physical labor, and more manpower can be freed. More mines and factories are being built, so the output of various products of [Qingshi Ling] has shown a vertical explosive growth of rocket launch recently.

In the last month alone, the major branches of "Tiangong Steel Works" have produced a total of 460 million tons of various types of steel and iron, and the output of various metals is expected to reach 6000 million tons for the whole year!

Moreover, once the iron and steel smelting technology is further improved, with the huge scale of [Qingshi Ling]'s iron and steel enterprises, the output may increase by nearly ten times, nearly a hundred times. .

Although in the long run, [Qingshi Ling]'s current backward and primitive steel production model not only has poor efficiency, low output, heavy pollution, and large waste of resources, it is actually not cost-effective, but in order to pursue development speed, in the shortest To improve the capital and strength of [Qingshi Ling] within a short period of time, Gu Yi can only use the words "development first, governance later" to comfort himself.

What made him most gratified was that the land of Great Desolation was so rich, not to mention "Desolation", it was simply fat!
Open-pit mines can be found everywhere. Large pieces of ore are exposed on the ground and in the riverbed. Those seemingly barren and barren hills that don’t even grow grass are simply piles of stones. Iron Ore Mountains...

Due to the limitations of detection technology, [Qingshi Ling] is temporarily unable to conduct deep detection. No one knows what treasures are buried under this fat and oily land waiting for Gu Yi to explore.

Gu Yi reckons that even if he casually misfortune, before he dies, he will definitely not be able to misfortune these god-given resources. You know, this is just a small remote place in the corner of [Ironforge], a wild world. It's so big, how many plundered things are there waiting for him to do harm to him?
So, from the 460 million tons of metal, less than a thousand tons of high-carbon steel equivalent to [low-grade black iron] can be saved, and it will not affect the construction plan of [Qingshi Ling].

After a long period of research, and even through the analysis of various black irons purchased on the market, Gu Yi discovered that the so-called "black irons" are actually just some meteorites with high hardness and heat resistance.

The metal properties presented by "Tiangong steel (carbon steel)" are very close to "black iron", which is why "Tiangong steel" is mistaken for "black iron".

However, the quality of "Tiangong Steel" has not yet reached the high strength, high toughness, high temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance of "Xuan Tie". iron].

In fact, [Qingshiling]'s iron and steel enterprises have developed to the present, especially with the strong participation of "Dawn Laboratory", the types of iron and steel formulas they have are quite rich. With the improvement of smelting technology, for smelting alloy steel With the conditions provided by special steel materials such as special steel and special steel, various alloy steels have been refined, among which tungsten steel and nickel steel have been rated as [medium-grade black iron] and [high-grade black iron].

It can be said that if Gu Yi needs it, "Dawn Laboratory" can synthesize alloy steel that reaches [Super Grade Dark Iron] at any time, just take out some high-speed front steel, and you can stun the wild leopards for a moment I was taken aback.

With Dahuang's smelting process and technology, it is basically impossible to artificially produce tungsten steel [xuan iron], not to mention "xuan iron", which is a treasure that has to wait for the stars to fall from the sky. , that is, the output of ordinary iron materials is also extremely low.

Take [Rongshi City], which is famous for producing iron materials and is responsible for supplying weapons and ordnance to the entire [Qingshan Prefecture], for example, the [pig iron] produced by many iron-producing [Fortresses] in the whole territory in a year does not exceed [-] tons, [wrought iron] will not exceed [-] tons, and [refined iron] will not exceed [-] tons, but they have to provide iron materials to [Qingshanfu] nine [military cities]!

Although Gu Yi heard from Blacksmith that in some [warlock sects], there are highly skilled alchemists who can use a mysterious "gold touch method" to refine black iron, but this "small stove alchemy" The output is simply a drop in the bucket for the huge demand of the entire Great Desolation.

Therefore, for Shuzong who also needs a lot of metal materials to refine magic tools, it is definitely a surprise that a force that can provide a lot of metal materials, even the extremely rare [Mysterious Iron], suddenly appeared up.

This is also the reason why Qu Rongzi, the head of the [Chesi Sect], treats a rising force so politely. Otherwise, given their [Warlock Sect]'s detached status, there is absolutely no need to put on this kind of harmony. courtesy attitude.

You said that since this kind of black iron refining technology is so good, why don't you just grab it and it's over?

People's secrets are so easy to grab, and they won't become secrets. Moreover, the secular world has the rules of the secular world, and the outside world has the rules of the outside world. Non-interference in the secular world is almost a rule that all forces in the outside world abide by. .

It's not that there are no people who break the ban, but it's true that there are no people who do this blatantly for thousands of years. After all, no one wants to arouse public outrage and attract joint attacks from other forces.

To put it bluntly, the secular world is like a "big pot of rice". Everyone follows the rules and queues up to "get food (obtain the required resources from the secular world)". If they are all occupied, then wait to be beaten up by a group of people!
Besides, this [Tiangongmen], which seems to have popped out of a rock, can create such a large fortune in the secular world in such a short period of time, do you think it has no background and background?
As an "outsider expert", I still need to save some face. If you eat something too ugly, it seems that you are forced to rush. Generally, you can't do it. Besides, no one wants to provoke a mysterious ancient sect who lives in seclusion. If you haven't figured it out Isn't it the rhythm to find a way to act rashly under the circumstances?
The two sides exchanged routines and bargains for a long time, and both obtained some "intelligence" that they had predicted from the other party's words, and each made a compromise to reach a deal.

[Tiangongmen] Squeeze out 3000 million taels of [xuantie] from the "scarce" sect resources, and buy ten [chesi windboats] that can carry [-] tantalum to support [chesizong] This is the development and construction of foreign practitioners.

And [Chesi Zong], in addition to delivering ten [Chesi Fengzhou] to [Tiangongmen], also gave an additional 250 [Cloud Cars] with a total value of [-] billion dajin, which can be regarded as a good relationship [ Tiangongmen] This emerging sect that has gained fame recently, for a sect that has a large amount of rare materials and they are extremely dependent on various rare materials, it is not too much to build a good relationship.

As for the sudden emergence of [Tiangongmen], neither the [Chesi Sect] who had dealt with them personally nor the Fangwai Sect who was still waiting to see, had never doubted their identities.

After all, from the [Yu Chao Xia Yi] ten thousand years ago to the [You Chao Han Yi] ten thousand years later, countless Fangwai sects have been born or entered the world due to various reasons, and there are still countless Knowing how many sects outside the world have escaped from the world, Qianlong Zaiyuan hides in the cave of the sect and cultivates secretly.

Fangwai sects like [Tiangongmen], which are unknown and suddenly appeared in the world to open the sect, are not unheard of in history. Most likely, they have encountered some catastrophe and hurt their vitality. After many years of seclusion, they recovered , Joining the WTO again to develop the foundation of the sect.

This kind of thing is too common in the outside world. Don't think that there is no fighting in the outside world. In order to fight for that sliver of luck, the rules of survival in the outside world will only be more cruel than those in the secular world.

However, the Fangwai sect like [Tiangongmen], which has just entered the world and opened a sect, and has shown super development strength, is the most dangerous during this period.

Because they didn't know their identities and historical origins at the beginning, everyone didn't have a way to correspond.Secondly, the Fangwai sect who just entered the WTO, most of them dared to take the lead after holding back their energy. This time is the period when they are most vigilant and most sensitive. The big move to destroy the land.

It would be fine if their enemy had vanished into thin air, but if the old enemy was still there, but they hid aside and did not show their heads, and bumped into them rashly to take a blow for their old enemy, that would be called injustice.

Otherwise, do you think that [Tiangongmen] has grown from a small [mine camp] to such a huge force in a short period of time, why is there no outside force from any side to intervene and contact?

Wait until they develop, and then compete with them fairly for territory?Fangwai people are human beings, not saints, so they would be so kind!

Even [Chesi Sect], although they have long been aware of this sect that has entered the world within their sect's sphere of influence, they are careful to wait until the other party takes the initiative to contact them before daring to formally use it as a foreign sect. If you come into contact with the other party with your identity, you are afraid of touching the sensitive nerves of the other party, and treat them as old enemies and play with each other.

Looking at it now, this [Tiangongmen] seems to be very gentle, not like a sect that retreated from the world after a catastrophe. Generally, most sects like this have naturally declined. If you re-establish the sect Most of them will be very cautious and vigilant, and when dealing with Fangwai sect, their attitude will be very modest and cautious, for fear of causing catastrophe.

But judging from [Tiangongmen]'s unscrupulous expansion speed and strong and high-profile style of entering the world, it does not seem to be the attitude that a foreign force with a declining inheritance should have at all.

These kinds of weird signs made Qu Rongzi uncertain. Judging from his little temptation when he first came, and the fact that the other party didn't respond, the hidden forces behind this [Tiangongmen] may be extremely strong.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have no scruples about his temptations, and easily let their [Chesi Sect]'s wind boat directly invade the core area of ​​the sect and bring it still like a mountain. It is not a weapon like [Tiancha] or [Fujian], but it is still easy to destroy an undefended city.

But after Qu Yuzi took a cloud car to see clearly the pattern of rice fields in the giant city [Qingshi City], and the octagonal formation in the giant city that had revealed the power of suppressing the world before it was activated. , but almost peed out of fear.

It's just an outer door, why would you put such a scary thing here to scare people?

The most wicked thing is that he deliberately didn't open the formation, so that he lowered the sailboat into the formation unprepared. This is a clear rhythm of digging a hole and waiting for someone to jump in! ?
Qu Rongzi, who was frightened by the terrifying octagonal formation, dared to try there, had already sent him to the "tiger's mouth" by himself, and if he left at this time, he would be showing his guilt, so he could only come down honestly See you in the week, sending [-] [cloud cars] is not without the meaning of apologizing.

Summing up all the collected information, Qu Rongzi can barely confirm that this [Tiangongmen] may have a slight relationship with the [Tianji Pavilion] in the [Yu Dynasty Xia Dynasty], which can be traced from [Tiangongmen] Gathering the Great Wilderness Craftsman Clan in a short period of time can explain the problem.

In short, no matter from which point of view, it is far more cost-effective to have a good relationship with [Tiangongmen] than to conflict with them.

A big deal was concluded, and both parties were very happy. One side wanted to continue to cooperate next time, and the other side wanted to get more information about the outside world from the other side.

Of course, Gu Yi couldn't expect that in such a short period of time, the other party would have so many thoughts wandering around in his mind, and he would automatically come up with such a "reasonable and reasonable" perfect answer. He just warmly entertained [Che Sizong] and his party at [ Qingshi collar] stay a few more days.

And Qu Rongzi also readily agreed, saying that he would wait until the sect delivered the wind boat and then leave with him, intending to stay here [Qingshi Ling] for a few more days.

When it comes to eating, drinking, having fun, and enjoying luxury, Gu Yi estimates that there is no place in this wild world that can compare to his [Qingshi Collar], so he first arranged the team of [Che Si Zong] in the "super seven-star" Qingshi Hotel , and personally accompanied the tour guide.

Fangwai people are also human beings. After [Chesizong] and his party stepped into the Qingshi Hotel located outside [Qingshi City], beside an artificial lake, their mouths never closed!

This Qingshi Lake was originally a depression on a stone field, and some rainwater was deposited to form a shallow pond. Because the soil layer is very thin, it is completely worthless to cultivate land, and because of the uneven terrain, it is expensive to transform it into land for building. It's too big, and it's close to [Qingshi City], so Guyi decided to classify it as a nearby quarry when he built the city wall of [Qingshi City].

With the successful construction of the city wall of [Qingshi City], it has also been dug into a huge artificial tiankeng. One of the reservoirs that supply water to the city.

Later, on a whim, Guyi asked someone to dig an artificial canal to connect the Qingshi Lake and the moat. He also built artificial gardens, rockery and strange rocks by the lake, and transplanted a large number of exotic flowers and plants, ancient trees and giant trees. It is planned to use it as a park and a zoo for [Bluestone City] residents to play in their leisure time.

But with the development of [Qingshi City], there are more and more secrets in the city, and it is difficult for some outsiders to settle in the city, so Gu Yi simply asked people to build a super-superior in Qingshi Lake Park with the standards of the commercial city. The seven-star luxury hotel is specially used for entertaining and accommodating foreign guests.

Of course, those rockery rocks, strange flowers and plants, strange birds and beasts are not attractive to outsiders like Qu Yuzi and others. On the contrary, it is the artificial building of Qingshi Hotel that attracts Qu Yuzi and his little friends. They were stunned.

Because Qingshi Hotel adheres to the concept of luxury, it is natural to use luxury-grade building materials. Guyi asked "Tiangong Glass Factory" to pour a large number of giant glass bricks as building materials, building a resplendent and transparent crystal palace.

Due to the quality of the glass, the building of the Qingshi Hotel did not dare to build too high, but the foundation of the Qingshi Hotel was built in the water, Gu Yi applied his concept of a world aquarium, and half of the buildings were located underwater .

During the day, through the large transparent glass wall, you can see various aquariums swimming at the bottom of the lake. There is also an aquarium in the wall. Whether it is the ceiling, wall, or floor, you can see fish of various colors swimming.

At night, when the searchlights and interior lighting are turned on, the whole building is so beautiful!
But the problem is, in the Great Wilderness, people usually call this kind of transparent crystal [Dragon Marrow Jade]. A whole palace built with a giant [Dragon Marrow Jade], isn't it extravagant?

This is just the building, and the interior decoration makes Qu Yuzi and others who regard money as dung feel that they are so extravagant that they have no conscience. Various large [jasper jade] (celadon) They are used as containers and placed everywhere as flowerpots, spittoons, tables, chairs and round stools carved from [Ningzhiyu] (white porcelain)...

To be honest, Guyi is actually in order to save costs. If he can produce and sell himself, he can produce and sell it himself. If he buys those expensive stone materials from the wilderness from the outside world, it will cost a lot!Homemade is cheaper, isn't it?
