"What is your dream?" Luo Heng asked with a smile.
"Dream?" Luo Heng's sudden question left Bilu a little confused.
"It's okay, just speak boldly." Luo Heng encouraged.
"Stand, stand at the top of the world." Bilu said after hesitating for a moment.
"Have you thought it through? Think it through first." Luo Heng raised his eyebrows, and the originally gentle smile froze on his face.
Bilu's heart tightened: "Can't I say that?"
"Haha, actually I just want to live a luxurious life." Bilu showed an ugly smile.
"Well, this is a good ideal. I can satisfy you." Luo Heng nodded.
"Do you know why I brought you here?" Luo Heng asked again.
"No one told me." Bilu said with a bitter face.
"Of course, it's to fulfill your dream and allow you to live a luxurious life."
"My Lord, are you kidding me?"
"I never joke." Luo Heng said seriously.
"Sir, this should be conditional, right?" Bilu asked anxiously.
"Isn't this nonsense?"
"Do you think you are a Celestial Dragon and can get something for nothing?"
Luo Heng looked at him as if he were an idiot.
"No, no, no, that's absolutely not what I meant." Bilu waved his hands quickly.
"Let me get this straight."
"I asked you to come here because I value your ability to smelt metals."
"Alabasta is very rich in mineral resources that need to be extracted and even processed into many directly usable forms."
"Of course, I won't let you work hard for nothing."
"For every ton of metal extracted, I'll give you 10 Baileys."
“The same price applies to further processing of metal.”
"With your ability, refining tens of thousands of tons every day should be easy, right?"
Upon hearing this, Bilu's eyes widened and his breathing became rapid.
I thought he was just being forced to do hard labor, but I didn't expect Crocodile to be so generous.
With his ability, not to mention smelting tens of thousands of tons a day, as long as he has the physical strength to keep up, hundreds of thousands of tons are no problem.
Any metal or mineral in the world is like his own son to him.
Make them soft if you want, hard if you want, and any shape you want.
Ten Baileys for a ton is no different from picking up money with a sack.
In this way, he will probably be able to live a luxurious life soon.
Because the Eden he had just arrived in was as prosperous as the Golden City.
Before in the Silver Fortress, he could only sell the refined silver ore to Tezoro at a low price.
The silver mine's output was very low, so his actual income was not much.
"Sir, I wonder what the output of the ore here is like?" Bilu asked cautiously.
"As for production, I haven't asked about that yet."
"However, there are currently approximately 10,000 pirates undergoing labor reform in the mines."
“There will be more to come.”
"Hiss~~~" Bilu suddenly took a breath of cold air.
If this group of people were taken to the New World, they would become a formidable force.
The tough guy in front of them was so extravagant that he asked them all to go mining.
Compared to this place, the hundreds of pirate miners in the Silver Pirates are like kindergarteners.
"Sir, I think I can do this job." Thinking of this, Bilu suddenly stood up and said confidently.
"Welcome to Baroque Studio." Luo Heng extended his hand with a smile.
Upon seeing this, Bilu hurriedly stretched out his hands to hold it with great fear and trepidation.
"Do a good job. I never treat my own people unfairly." Luo Heng patted Bilu's shoulder and said.
"Thank you, boss, for giving me this opportunity." Bilu was ecstatic and said excitedly.
He thought it would be a disaster, but unexpectedly it turned out to be his opportunity.
With the support of the Five Emperors, he will no longer have any worries.
Work hard and then enjoy life.
For him, who doesn't have any big ambitions, this is the perfect thing.
"His name is Walpo, and he's the head of the Science and Research Department. You'll be under his command for the time being."
"Once you expand your business, I will set up a separate Metallurgical Department for you."
Luo Heng pointed at Walpo who was pouring rice into his mouth across the street and said.
"Will there be an official position in the future? My future is really bright." Bilu was full of joy.
"Walpo, this is Biru, the forger who ate the Melting Fruit. He's temporarily under your jurisdiction. You can have him make any material you want."
"Furnace Man? Is this the metallurgical expert the boss mentioned earlier?"
Upon hearing this, Walpo immediately looked at Bilu carefully as if he had found a treasure, and Bilu was so frightened that his whole body was covered with goosebumps.
"Come on, come on, I have some great ideas, but I just need some special metal materials to realize them."
"After you come, my project will definitely achieve a breakthrough immediately."
Walpo said, taking Bilu's arm and walking towards his laboratory.
Luo Heng looked at Walpo's hurriedly departing back and couldn't help but sigh at the impermanence of life.
The tyrant Walpo, who was originally a fool, suddenly became a fanatical scientist.
"Well, Mr. Crocodile, I don't quite understand a few things about the car you talked about today. Could you explain it to me again?"
Seeing that Luo Heng seemed to have nothing to do, Ain asked with some trepidation.
"certainly!"
"It's my honor to help a beautiful lady answer her questions." Luo Heng said with a smile.
"I'm not as beautiful as you say." Ain's face flushed and he said embarrassedly.
Luo Heng couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was just being polite. The women in this world always had weird trains of thought.
Luo Heng and Ain discussed the car design drawings until late at night.
He had a premonition that the world's first car would soon be born under his own eyes.
After all, for Valpo, any machine can be easily manufactured as long as there are well-designed drawings and complete materials.
It doesn't even need to be as sophisticated as the machinery in Luo Heng's world to function normally.
This is unreasonable, yet very reasonable.
As for Vinsmoke Reiju who came from afar, Luo Heng originally planned to leave her alone for a few days and was not in a hurry to meet her.
On the afternoon of the third day after Luo Heng arrived at the desert base, a large group of people stood in a hole the size of a football field.
There was a large pile of materials placed on the open space, and Ain and several other researchers were carefully checking the types and quantities of the materials.
"Mr. Walpo, the materials have been prepared." Ain said seriously.
"Boss, I'll start then." Walpo asked Luo Heng for instructions.
Luo Heng nodded: "Let's get started."
After receiving the order, Walpo opened his huge mouth like a bottomless pit and swallowed all the materials on the ground in one gulp.
Then, his round belly began to move.
