Chapter 546 What? Cannons, air craft!
While there was a fierce discussion in the rear, the front was still communicating.
Lu Yuan looked at the map. The north was an ice barrier, and the three directions of the east, south and west were the universe void.
This is really a Jedi!
Fortunately, the territory in the northern border is very huge. Conservatively estimated that it is 100,000 kilometers from south to north, with a total area of ??about 6 earths. In this kind of environment with a vast land and sparsely populated area, a large number of civilizations have become their own kingdoms here, which is quite nourishing.
"A brief introduction to some surrounding civilizations."
The Ulan tribe is full of 100% and looks very respectful: "The most powerful race here...the inevitable dwarf tribe!"
"The dwarfs and other races have fought dozens of times, but they have almost never failed. Their equipment is too luxurious, and they are all legendary! They also have a large number of craftsmen and have good technological strength."
"Oh, this does sound quite powerful. Do they have more foreign wars?"
"That''s not much. Unless the geothermal heat disappears and you can''t survive, there will be basically no war."
When the Ulan tribe talked about this, he felt a little depressed: "The dwarf tribe occupies the best geothermal resources. They are backed by volcanoes and have no shortage of energy. I can''t envy this alone."
"The most important thing is that the dwarfs hugged the ancestors'' thighs... all the good things were touched by them."
"Ancestor?" Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows.
"For some reason, the dwarfs still have their ancestors alive, providing them with a lot of advanced knowledge and property. But we don''t have such good luck, and we have to develop everything ourselves... we are poor and we are all in poverty."
"Oh, we human race only have four cities and no ore, and life is very difficult."
Lu Yuan understood, what kind of ancestors are the strange people who lived to this day in the last era?
But why do you watch us like this?
Life is difficult, but you are doing poorly, and it has nothing to do with us.
We were not doing well either. We were just being taught a lesson by [Ghost], which was very difficult.
"Where are visions? Do you know the existence of visions?"
"I know, I know! The dwarf tribe has a strong foundation. Their ancestors have raised several visions. The most powerful vision is called the poison dragon, which can move in magma. The shedding scales are the best armor material."
"Wearing this kind of armor, your body is warm and you won''t freeze to death even under the extreme cold wave."
“Where are other visions?”
"I don''t know for the time being...but it is said that the extreme cold barrier was created by an extremely powerful vision, but no one can verify it."
It doesn''t sound like a [ghost], and the problem is not too big - Lu Yuan thought to himself.
It’s not that he is floating, so many races in front of him live well.
Even though it was a little hard, I was still alive.
It wouldn’t be that when their Green City came, all kinds of visions popped up, and everyone was in trouble together, right?
Lu Yuan finally sighed: "Thank you all the leaders for your answers. I roughly understand the situation here. We will visit these civilizations. At that time, we will ask the two city lords to help us lead the way and show off our faces, so that we can become familiar with each other."
"No problem, absolutely no problem!" The two of them kept patting their chests to make a promise.
"What are your specialties? If you want to trade in cities in the future, you must have some output, so we can''t give it for free."
The "rice stock" city lord in Mailuo City finally waited for this sentence. He excitedly took over the conversation: "Dear Mr. Lu Yuan, there is a low-level civilization ruin near Mailuo City. We have been developing this ruin for hundreds of years and have unearthed many cultural relics and specialties. If you have useful things there, we can give a discount price."
"There are many cultural relics that have ancient glyphs on them. Over time, they have a hint of strange frost attributes. This material is not the same as conventional materials."
The big man took out a jade pendant from his arms and put it on the table.
Lu Yuan picked up the jade pendant and pondered it for a while. The ancient glyphs were indeed subtle differences from the Ninth Era.
The reason is also very simple. Different eras, the world will has changed, and the idealistic rules have also changed slightly.
However, the specific principles are still the same.
[Ice Jade Pendant: An extraordinary prop that can accelerate mental power recovery, the expected recovery speed is increased by 12.9%. 】
[The surface of the glyphs is worn out, but it is still a good cultural relic. 】
[Because it has been placed in a cold environment for a long time, the extraordinary elements of ice attributes penetrated into the jade pendant and had a special reaction with the original one, and the effect was 18% stronger than the conventional ice jade. (Inferior grade·artificial artifact)]
"If this raw material is of large amount, it is indeed very valuable." Lu Yuan nodded.
Although this is just a inferior material, you must know that in the face of the ever-expanding population, the dream of a person holding an extraordinary item is far away - even if the wealth of Green City is still much worse.
So, this kind of low-level material comes from Green Estate City!
“We do have a lot.”
Seeing that Mai Lucheng had reached a preliminary cooperation intention, Ulancheng was a little anxious, but they had no specialties and had empty pockets, which made them feel so uncomfortable.
"We have some spiritual charm in our treasury. How much is the price of your technology products?" Ta Gang, the lord of Ulan City, gritted his teeth and took out his family''s background.
"Sir." The Grand Secretary sitting on the side whispered.
After so many years of accumulation, they only have more than 200 spiritual charm.
In an average of one year, only 1-2 points of spiritual charm.
Lingyun is a thing that has many uses. It can accelerate the cultivation of extraordinary fire seeds, improve quality when craftsmen forged it, and even many idealistic creatures need to use Lingyun to provide energy!
Ta Gang turned his head and looked at him, signaling him to calm down.
Ask first and the price is absolutely correct, at worst... you can''t buy it.
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "We have so many things... You can just take a look."
The surrounding secretary handed over several tablets, showing a list of supplies that Green City could provide.
Because things happened in a hurry, this list is actually not very complete, mainly based on the materialistic system of Lanpeng civilization.
When exploring in Pangu Continent, you always have to hide that.
The highest-end technology products of human beings are not suitable for display. Selling outdated equipment can be considered as clearing inventory.
But it is obvious that the richness of this list shocked the two city lords and were stunned for a while.
"What... cannon is this?"
Tagang pointed at a black gun barrel.
Duke Lan Peng said loudly: "Yes, this is the seahorse tear anti-aircraft gun developed by my Lan Peng clan. The maximum range of using conventional rockets is 45 kilometers, and the maximum range of using guided rockets is 70 kilometers. It is an excellent choice for civilized war."
"Oh, you may not know how long a meter is... This is a ruler, you can measure it yourself."
"And the price of shells is very cheap and easy to maintain."
“As for the power of the shell.”
"Boom!" A video of cannon shooting appeared on the tablet computer, and the bomb exploded and a pit was exploded.
The two city lords shook together.
They also know that cannons are something that many cities have, and long-range shooting is powerful, but close-range fighting is of no use.
Just the power and range provided by Green City are much greater than they imagined.
"How much?"
"The price is easy to negotiate, and our intention is 1 Lingyun One."
"It''s too expensive..." This price made them look blue.
"Ahem, you have to let the special negotiators talk in detail. Buy a cannon and get hundreds of shells. Anyway, the price is easy to negotiate."
“How many are there?”
Duke Lan Peng waved his hand: "You want as much as you want! There are currently a thousand cannons in stock, and the quantity is very discounted! We deliver goods to our doorstep, and it is not easy to walk on the road in the snow, just deliver them to our doorstep."
The two city lords were all shocked. It’s not that the cannon is too cheap... but why do you have so many cannons?
What is the concept of a thousand cannons? The annual maintenance costs alone are astronomical.
"It''s too expensive, too expensive." Ta Gang murmured to himself.
You should know that 1 Lingyun is a large unit, and the dwarf clan''s cannon is only 0.4 Lingyun one.
Immediately afterwards, my whole body was shocked.
The delivery is very high - the dwarfs do not have this service.
Now there are negotiators from two cities!
What they are worried about is what if the other party’s city buys a lot of cannons and flattens their city?
The greatest benefit in this world is robbery, and the soul can squeeze out spiritual charm!
The skills of the gods are even more valuable!
A magical skill is dozens of spiritual charm!
They don’t understand this principle. It is definitely a huge benefit to spend a hundred spiritual rhymes to buy cannons and loot other civilizations.
The two city lords looked at each other, and the invisible fireworks clashed in the air.
Don’t buy cannons and rob me! Otherwise, don’t blame me for turning against you!
Don’t rob me either!
Finally, the two of them stopped again and took a few breaths.
There is no way, after all, I am still compatriots, and there is still intermarriage between cities, so I will not be able to squeeze the soul.
But the next picture once again shocked their minds.
"Is this... an airship? an airship?"
This huge reinforced concrete creature rose from the ground and carried tens of thousands of tons of goods at one time.
The thick shell, huge tonnage, and the rumbling propeller bring a full sense of security.
"Hu—" They couldn''t help but breathe a breath of turbid air from their mouths.
You should know that in the northern area, the traffic is very inconvenient in the ice and snowy environment.
Most civilizations are still using carousels to pull sleds to consign goods!
But even if the beasts in the supernatural world are stronger, how much goods can be consigned? A few tons at a time is the limit!
Therefore, a strong civilization will choose to build rail trains, but the weather often snows, and the maintenance cost of railway tracks is quite high. Railway tracks are usually only used to connect mines and cities.
To sum up, the best long-distance transportation method between cities is naturally an air boat! In order to avoid natural disasters, the larger the airship, the better, and the heavier the better!
When a blizzard comes, the airship can land on the ground for a rest.
On the road again after the blizzard.
It can be said that airships can be regarded as the economic foundation of a strong civilization!
If there is no civilized trade, living in a corner will inevitably lead to poverty and there is no way out.
"What is the load capacity of your airboat?" asked the Grand Secretary.
"You can think as much as you want." Lu Yuan said firmly.
Even for floating cities, they have sent out two, and the tonnage of this floating fortress can indeed be increased infinitely.
"Sir, don''t joke. How can the load capacity be infinitely large? Can your materials expand infinitely?"
Because this fortress was a property given by Lan Peng people, Duke Lan Peng explained: "You may have misunderstood that this suspended fortress is made of ''Pandora Crystal'', not an ordinary hot air balloon. The basic principle is the anti-gravity principle of Pandora Crystal."
"So that''s it... I''ve heard of this, it''s very expensive." The Grand Secretary whispered a few times with his own leader.
The anti-gravity system of Pandora crystal is not used as long as you want. It needs to use the electricity to supply energy and adjust the power! Therefore, only technological civilization can play with this thing.
"The rated load capacity of this one we are currently displaying is 38,000 tons."
"There are two large steam engines inside, and it''s okay to burn coal or fuel, and there are 4 large propellers. There are also glyphs of drifting on the walls of the fortress, which can make its speed reach 80 kilometers per hour and the maximum speed is 100 kilometers per hour!"
"The floating fortress made by my Green City can carry the living and living of 4,000 people. In severe weather, it can also land on the ground safely, with temperature control glyphs inside, and the walls have strong thermal insulation ability."
"More even, we have arranged large plantations that can be used to grow green vegetables to prevent scurvy."
This series of data directly made people dizzy.
Of course, the price of this large airship is not low, and the price of 240 Lingyun scared all the natives.
It’s too expensive, you have to collect the assets of the entire city to afford it.
Lu Yuan felt that Lan Pengren was too greedy.
This floating fortress has been used for so long, and 24 Lingyun is the cost price.
30 Lingyun, he sold it.
As a result, Lan Pengren was going to sell for 240... He couldn''t bear it.
But the Ulan tribe seems to be a little moved. How much change can a floating fortress bring to the city? Even if you just go shopping around, you can make money sooner or later!
"Hold on! If you bargain for a while, there may be a discounted price."
"You must not be too impulsive, otherwise it will be fish on the chopping board!" They secretly warned themselves.
The next product looks very strange, like a large glass window, blue all over, and it is quite beautiful.
"This is…"
"Ahem, this is a solar panel, which is doped with glyph technology and energy storage technology, which can collect sunlight during the day, store electricity, and facilitate night use."
"The light radiation here is not too strong, but it can also meet the minimum usage standard."
"The design standards of my Lanpeng clan are capable of going to space, so they are absolutely excellent in terms of cold resistance! This solar panel is durable and has a shelf life of more than 50 years! If it is well maintained, it will never have any problems if it has been used for hundreds of years." The Blue-Haired Birdman promised.
It seems like it is just something to add icing on the cake and improve life.
But the price is cheap. A solar panel only has a 0.05-like spirit, which sounds heart-warming.
This thing can generate electricity, boil water, take a hot bath, and provide energy to electric lights.
As a nobleman, can’t you enjoy it?
Is it still a mistake to replace a solar panel with a carpet jade pendant and enjoy it for the next few hundred years?
"Don''t worry, take a look again, take a look..."
"Is this again?"
"Generators can generate electricity normally by just fuel. If you don''t have gasoline, cooking oil can barely be competent, but the lifespan may be shortened."
A little beyond Lu Yuan''s expectations, these guys thought about it for a while and actually shook their heads and gave up!
Buy a solar panel for yourself to use, but it is barely acceptable.
They really can''t bear the large-scale development of power technology, because laying wires requires a lot of copper metal.
What''s more, the generator needs to consume fuel, and the price of this thing is too high, many times higher than coal.
"What is this thing?" They saw a strange tall tower. There was a boiler in the center of the tower, and many thick iron pipes were wrapped around the boiler.
"This is...the iron smelting blast furnace." Lu Yuan sighed. Isn''t this a rag that they have eliminated and has been covered with for a long time? Can''t you really fry the stove if you sell it?
The deputy sitting aside explained: "Only by investing iron ore and coal, you can smel out iron. Generally speaking, smelting one ton of pig iron requires 1.5-2.0 tons of iron ore, 0.4-0.6 tons of coke, 0.2-0.4 tons of flux, and a total of 2-3 tons of raw materials are required."
"The volume of this iron-smelting blast furnace is not large, with a daily output of about 320 tons. The cost of starting construction is very high, and continuous production is required to cover the cost."
These words made everyone in the Ulan tribe frightened. They actually had boilers, but they were equivalent to the nature of the local steelmaking method, and they were far inferior in terms of output and quality.
Although this blast furnace is good, can they afford this fiscal expenditure?
I looked through the following information, from weapons such as guns and cannons, to various raw materials, to fancy and extraordinary equipment.
There are even some customized services!
For example, helping to create a field, treating cancer, repairing some soul injuries, etc. As long as you have money, you can buy almost everything!
Eye-opening, really eye-opening.
They have a new understanding of the power and prosperity of Green City.
If this is really a ruin, maybe... it can really become a high-level ruin!
At the moment, Tagang was a little unable to sit still and cleared his throat: "Dear friends in Green City, we are so short of money and cannot afford to buy too many supplies... we must choose carefully."
"Please give us some time for internal discussion."
“Now, it’s hard for us to make a decision.”
Lu Yuan nodded: "No problem, we have prepared a room for you and can stay for a while. After the discussion, please find us at any time."
He did not mention anything related to "civilization points".
There are many civilizations in this ghost place in the North. Perhaps the information about "civilization points" has been circulating for a long time.
So, there is no need to throw out your true purpose from the beginning.
Maybe the other party will take the initiative to raise this point?
The Ulan tribe left in a daze. It can be seen that they really long for these supplies.
…
…
Watching these indigenous people leave, the conference room was quiet for a while.
The rat craftsman took the lead and sighed: "The commander is benevolent and righteous. In the face of such a small city that is not considered a first-level civilization, it can also trade fairly."
"Although this price...haha, it''s a little higher. But who can criticize and criticize anything you want?"
Lu Yuan sighed, "The more you experience, the more you know that everyone is just an ants struggling to survive in the sea of ??suffering."
"We are indeed stronger than them now, but it doesn''t mean that we can go smoothly forever. One more friend, one more path."
"Even if we can''t become friends, we won''t lose money. Anyway, we will only sell some eliminated goods to them."
"This is the truth..." The mouse engineer''s beard trembled a few times.
Duke Lan Peng, Mr. McGmitt, also sighed lightly.
Everything in the world is difficult to know and do. Everyone knows the truth that "humanity makes people progress, and pride makes people weak", but arrogance is common in the world.
Just like their Lan Peng civilization, it is an arrogant civilization.
This kind of arrogance is reflected in all aspects of life, and faces the weak with a sense of superiority from the heart.
However, Lan Peng civilization is only one night''s time to be destroyed... Where is the meaning of arrogance?
The big reason why humans can truly be insatiable and correct their attitude is that the commander is indeed a kind person, which indirectly affects the entire civilization.
Lu Yuan suddenly remembered something and changed the topic: "Oh, by the way, I have been inspired recently and have gained a little. Or, everyone can communicate?"
"It''s better to obey your orders than respect. The inspiration of the great master is very precious!" The rat craftsmen immediately became excited.
"Recently, I have had a sudden idea and have a little understanding of the integration, splitting and essence of extraordinary abilities..."
"I found that the most important thing is the underlying idealistic marks. These things are the most original idealistic mechanism, like gears, nesting one after another."
"If you can see one ten thousand, you can create top-notch good things in a state of no inspiration."
Duke Lan Peng himself is not a craftsman and he doesn''t understand it very much, but he is mostly curious.
The rats had shiny pupils and took a breath of cold air.
"The mark of idealism...is really an amazing research product."
"The leader of the Lu University, there are some taboos to study the marks at the bottom, so you should be more at ease!"
"Why are there any taboos?" Lu Yuan was immediately dissatisfied when they said it.
"You think, the use of extraordinary abilities is a very common thing. But how many civilizations will study its true essence?" Rat Worker touched his beard, "It''s like lightning, which has always existed in nature. But when did it really understand lightning?"
"It''s like what we seem to be accustomed to when we breathe, drink water, and eat, but actually have very complex life mechanisms."
"The same is true for extraordinary abilities. Only those powerful civilizations can study their underlying mechanisms and even create brand new abilities!"
