Chapter 91:89: Display Machinery (Subscription, Monthly Ticket)
At this time, hundreds of guests had gathered in the manor hall. In addition to those invited by Luo Yi, there were also many girls from the song and dance troupe.
They wear beautiful clothes, showing off their beautiful bodies, dancing gracefully on the dance floor, and attracting suitable partners.
For wealthy businessmen and nobles, they don't mind having a lover for fun.
For these girls, as long as they can hook up with a wealthy businessman or aristocrat, it is enough to change their own fate and even the fate of their entire family.
This is so normal in the Old World that you can't even criticize them morally.
Under the illumination of the bright magic crystal lamp, there is a magnificent hall. Melodious music echoes in the ears, and there are the passionate dances and heavy breathing of men and women.
There are also round tables of varying sizes, where three or five people gather together, talking loudly or in private, creating a lively atmosphere.
Until Luo Yi led Lilia to the second-floor stairs, followed by a group of factory owners, the music stopped at the right time.
Everyone's eyes also gathered over.
With hundreds of people focusing their attention on her, Lilia felt a little nervous. Although she was a teacher, the people she faced now were naturally no different from her students.
Luo Yi was calm and composed. He reached out and patted her arm to comfort her.
Then, Butler Hoover came up with the maid at the right time and brought out crystal clear glass and blood-red wine.
Luo Yi took a cup, Lilia also picked up a cup, and the other nine factory owners also picked up a cup.
At a banquet, the host always has to speak first and give an opening speech before the banquet can really begin.
Luo Yi raised his glass high. Seeing everyone's gaze converge and the hall quiet, he spoke: "Just now, I have signed contracts with nine gentlemen to invest in the Magic Energy Factory."
"Although my shares are small, my optimism about the Magic Energy Industry and its support for the empire is obvious!"
"I believe that the magic energy industry will eventually completely change this era, and as long as we stand at the forefront of this era, we will also change our future."
"Everyone, drink up!"
"Drink!"
Luo Yi picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. Seeing this, everyone also drank up the wine in their glasses.
This is respect for the host!
Luo Yi added: "The dinner party begins now. Everyone, eat and drink well!"
This was the sign that the party was about to begin, but just when Luo Yi was about to put down his wine glass, go downstairs and dance the first dance with Lilia.
A voice rang out: "Mr. Luo Yi, I heard that you have prepared a magical machine. Are you going to take us to see it?"
Everyone immediately traced the source of the sound, a group of people moved away, and Douglas' figure appeared.
The second-level moon-white robe and the five-pointed star badge on the chest have eight twinkling stars, which is really too conspicuous.
Luo Yi looked at him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and paused for a moment before asking, "But Mr. Douglas Hill?"
The wizard nodded: "It's me!"
"It's actually not very appropriate to arrange such a small incident for the banquet. Therefore, the magic forging hammer is open to those who are interested. I originally planned to invite only a few people to take a look."
"However, since Mr. Douglas is interested, it's fine now."
"Everyone, if you are interested, please come with me and have a look. If you are not interested, the dinner has already begun, so please feel free to do as you please!"
Having said that, Luo Yi looked at the band again and raised his hand: "Let the music start, everyone keep playing and dancing!"
Then the band started moving again, and the melodious and cheerful tunes filled the room.
Loyi took Lilia's hand and walked down the stairs, out of the hall, and walked towards where the magic forging hammer was placed.
Lilia was still feeling a little uneasy, so she secretly looked back and saw a large crowd of people following behind her. She was so scared that she turned her head back again.
Luo Yi patted her little hands and said softly: "It's just a small scene, stay calm!"
The use of the magic forging hammer must naturally be coordinated with the furnace in the blacksmith shop.
Therefore, even under the radiance of the magic crystal lamp, the sky was illuminated red, which was extremely eye-catching.
Of course, in order to maintain the mystery, it is surrounded by wooden fences and covered with black cloth to block out the public's sight.
When Luo Yi led everyone through the wooden door, everyone saw that on the hexagram formation, there was a machine with a big head and a small body placed in the center.
The iron felt below and the hammer head above emit a metallic luster, and the entire fuselage is wrapped in silver iron sheets. At first glance, it is no longer the sloppy warehouse in Xiangshe.
Next to it, there was a furnace and bellows for blacksmithing, and two blacksmiths were busy there.
One person pumped the bellows to provide fire, while the other rolled the red-hot iron ingots in the furnace.
Lilia stepped forward and pressed the button of the magic hammer with one hand. As magic power was input, the magic circle on the ground emitted a faint fluorescence.
Until the light climbed up to various parts of the hammer forging machine, a subtle buzzing sound was heard, which was the violent movement of the gears and connecting rods, and the hammer head began to extend and retract up and down.
After Lilia stepped back, the blacksmith immediately picked up a red-hot iron ingot with tongs and quickly placed it on the iron felt under the hammer.
Bang!
There was a loud bang, sparks flew, and it was visible to the naked eye that the iron ingot was slightly deformed.
But this is not over yet, the sound of "bang bang bang bang" continues to be heard, and the sound of beating continues.
The iron ingot immediately changed its shape and was pulled into long strips in a very short time.
Wow!
There were exclamations, and some laymen who were just watching the fun thought that this magic machine was amazing.
But the expressions of those knowledgeable factory owners and Douglas Hill changed slightly.
In just a moment, the iron ingot was stretched to one meter in length, and then trimmed by the blacksmith to make it straight and slender.
Obviously, the prototype of a dagger has been formed!
This scene stunned countless people, because the speed was just too fast.
"Mr. Loy!!!"
A voice suddenly sounded, the voice was so high that it even cracked a little, and it was filled with anger and questioning.
Even the roar of the magic hammer forging machine could not be suppressed.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man in his forties with a short, strong build and thick arms. He was staring at the magic forging hammer in frustration, and then staring at Luo Yi viciously.
Luo Yi turned his eyes slightly and looked at this person, and recognized his identity.
Damon Grayson, the president of the Oakland Blacksmiths Association, also runs the largest blacksmith shop in the entire Oakland city, and is responsible for almost all of the production of high-quality weapons and armor in the city.
At this moment, he stared at Luo Yi intently and asked, "So, the magic machinery created by Mr. Luo Yi is meant to cut off the business of my Blacksmith Association?
Aren't you afraid that the thousand members of the Blacksmiths' Guild will cause trouble for you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present reacted.
That’s right, this magic hammer forging machine has improved efficiency.
But the question is, with this magic hammer forging machine, how many blacksmiths will lose their jobs?
Damon Grayson was speechless. He originally wanted to watch the fun, but he didn't expect that the fun would happen to him.
As he spoke, Luo Yi became the focus of everyone again, but he still said calmly: "Mr. Damon, you seem to have misunderstood!"
"What's the meaning?"
"It's very simple. I'm not going to forge iron. I'm producing this magic hammer forging machine.
If Mr. Damon has any needs, we can discuss a purchase agreement and I will definitely give you a relatively favorable price."
Damon Grayson's eyes rolled, and his pupils shrank involuntarily: "You mean, you want to sell this machine to me?"
"Yes, it's just what you think!"
Luo Yi said this, his tone becoming distant and tempting: "As long as a small magic energy pool is sufficient, the energy supply can be met. A universal power machine can drive six such magic energy hammer forging machines.
The efficiency of this hammer forging machine is at least ten times that of traditional iron forging. Even forging steel is just a matter of operation."
"Mr. Damon, imagine owning a factory like this, with dozens of magical hammers and forging machines lined up in a row and hundreds of blacksmiths working simultaneously."
“How many weapons, how much armor, how much high-quality steel products can you produce every day?
By then, what you will be taking over is not just the business of Auckland City, but the big business of dozens of cities in the entire north.
Alternatively, you can try contacting the Imperial Military!"
After a pause, Luo Yi continued, "I think one of the biggest changes brought about by magic machinery is the huge improvement in production efficiency.
And what we see before us is just the tip of the iceberg.”
Roy's speech, let's just call it a speech, was full of incitement.
Not to mention others, Damon Grayson was already imagining what kind of status he would have when the Imperial Military had to negotiate business with him!
At this moment, another voice came: "The machine is a very good magical machine, I am very interested.
I just wonder if Mr. Luo Yi will accept investment from other people?"
These words expressed the thoughts of many factory owners. Everyone looked at each other and found that it was Douglas Hill who spoke this time.
This guy seems determined to cause trouble tonight.
Keluo Yi's answer surprised everyone. He smiled and said, "I am planning to open a new factory, and I really welcome your investment!"
"But I don't want money. Everyone knows I'm not short of money!"
"The partner I want must be powerful enough to help me promote the magic forging hammer to more places. That's how we can all make a fortune together."
At this point, he looked at the man and said with a smile, "Mr. Douglas Hill, if you are interested, can we talk about it in detail at the dinner?"
Douglas Hill's expression changed again and again, but he finally smiled and said loudly, "I couldn't ask for more!"
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of Mrs. Linda's words in his heart.
"Douglas, if I were you, I'd rather have a good chat with him."
"Now it seems that we really need to have a good chat!"
