Melina followed Tasia into the factory with the intention of doing research and study, and was immediately attracted by the huge mechanical structure.
A huge mining machine that is rough and full of industrial vigor, its huge gears mesh with each other, and it continuously collects from the void with a force of thousands of tons.
Its front end is like a huge mouth that shines with red light. Every time it opens, a huge amount of rough magic factors rush out like a tide and rush into a factor separator. The separator consists of eight complex huge It consists of grinding wheels that continuously grind and decompose the factors.
In the end, all the useless factors were crushed and sprayed into the air.
This kind of 'industrial pollution' will not affect human health, but will make people live longer, be in better physical condition, and make future generations stronger.
Useful factors, such as mineral factors, will be retained and filled into the 'original stone', a smooth stone like marble. Rough stones are transported to the mineral processing machines via conveyor belts made of strong leather. The minerals are crushed, refined, and the raw stones are synthesized again and transported to the bottom of the separator for loading.
The extracted minerals are transported along the new conveyor belt to the compressor to be made into blocks.
These mineral chunks will also eventually be crushed to extract high-purity minerals.
Iron, copper, zinc, chromium lead, gemstones, warm stone, undead salt, topaz mineral flowers...
Ten void mining machines produce resources endlessly.
There are many.
Above the machine, the supply point for the magic factor is a pavilion, surrounded by green vegetation, a small lawn with a fairway, two sun loungers, and an open patio above your head that can expose you to the sun, with the four directions of the patio Each also has an inward groove, and the clockwork cat's private cat room is inside.
An intermediate banshee and three banshee apprentices are on duty.
Banshees are creatures that they like to turn outward, but others want to turn inward. If a race wishes to become a banshee, it can start as an apprentice and finally transform into a banshee. This also allows some banshees to easily obtain a large amount of labor.
The intermediate banshee is giving lessons to the apprentices:
"Maintaining a machine is not just about providing the magic factor. You also need to carefully study the machine's magic factor erosion rate and then adjust it manually. Maintenance oil must also be prepared at all times, and the attitude towards work must be serious at all times..."
Okay, this succubus went off topic while talking and started to enter the very troublesome time of adult women preaching.
Melina took a moment to observe her disciple.
Three very pure-bred sheep girls. This is a race with the shape of a boy and girl with curled horns similar to that of an argali. Because their daily occupation is raising sheep and they often exist as traveling collectors, they are called sheep girls or sheep boys. If you hear a lot of 'bleating sounds' on the roadside one day, you can find them by following the sound.
Is it a race that is accustomed to traveling as a gatherer... Wow, what big horns... Melina silently paid attention to the exaggerated horns on the heads of the sheep girls, which is somewhat similar to the goat god Ani in Granblue Fantasy. Pulled corners, but more curled.
Her left hand was pinched.
Turning his head, he could see Tasia's cold face facing him. There was a subtle and imperceptible look in her silver eyes, as if she didn't want her to look past him.
Melina smiled at this jealous succubus.
The middle-level banshee who was secretly observing the two of them coughed slightly and opened her mouth:
"Xiaoxi! Why don't you introduce this cute banshee next to you? Is she a new employee? Will she live with us? Will she help me get off work? I welcome friendly colleagues the most. Our career has just begun. To start, we also need our help with the maintenance work at Ma Niang's office, and there are two Ma Niangs who want to be banshees, otherwise we might not be able to handle so many things..."
The speed with which she spoke rapidly made Melina a little confused.
The difference between Tasia's speaking speed and hers is almost as extreme as fire and water:
"Guests are visitors to the Weeping Peninsula who need constant-temperature stones to provide warmth for themselves in winter. Friends are talented people with unique ideas and views on all things. Mileva, friends are also helpers."
Middle-level banshee Mileva blinked:
"Wow, this is the first time I've seen Tasia say 'talented' to someone... Nice to meet you, I'm Mileva, her housekeeper, her friend and her loyal student team member , we all relied on her to get high marks in our subjects back then. Fortunately, our teacher was very discerning and didn’t let bastards like us get higher marks than her, hahaha!”
Most people rarely laugh at themselves, and people who laugh at themselves usually speak with the thought of "Shut up," but Mileva is different.
Her unique way of speaking makes people feel very sincere without being disrespectful.
Melina smiled and raised her hand:
"Melina, I haven't known Tasia for long, so you two are still my seniors."
"Oh my, my, have we reached the age where we are surrounded by school girls? Time flies so fast, Xiaoxi. A large number of school girls graduate every year, which puts too much pressure on us. Haha, it's mainly me. If you say I never knew you were under pressure. By the way, let’s get to know my three apprentices. I’m very optimistic about them becoming banshees in the future.”
"Miss Milena Terras, a good girl, the zombie sheep of Holheim..."
"Miss Kinley Walter, the ghost sheep in the east of Holheim..."
"Farah Cassindra, the vampire sheep near the Wild Divination Stone Circle on the Grave Plains north of Holheim..."
The three sheep girls shyly made "baa" sounds.
Melina just thought that good guy, none of these three sheep girls like to eat vegetarian food.
Zombie sheep like to eat brains, vampire sheep like to have hair and blood, and ghost sheep like to eat pig intestines. If these three sheep can go to the past life, they will go to Sichuan to sit at a table and eat hot pot. If they are full, they will come to Guangdong to find them. Xiaomei, Xiaomei just had three portions of roast lamb...
"What!"
I don't know if Melina's murderous intention was too romantic. The three sheep girls sensed something, screamed in fear, and ran around to check the operating status of the machine.
Mileva blinked:
"Haha, they are a little shy."
…
…
Tasia took Melina's hand and showed her the inventory throughout the factory.
This opened Melina's eyes. Although the goods provided in the entire factory were not many, they were of very high quality. Needless to say, there was hard currency such as thermostatic stones. There were also a large number of medicinal stones and jewelry, which were all very valuable trading items. .
It seems that Tasia made some technical changes and traded output for quality.
"If you keep doing this, you may become a very famous stone manufacturer."
The quality issues Melina was worried about no longer existed after viewing it once.
She was in a happy mood and bought a batch of stone inventory at a rare low price.
Although she spit out a batch of gold leu, it was worth the money. She could make her lair warm, and finally she could start purchasing some rare stones from Tasia to build banshee buildings. She recently researched how to generate banshee buildings and gained some results. Maybe she can make them by herself in the future.
…
…
Melina contacted Sansana to transport the stone back.
As a coachman and explorer, Sansana also undertook many commissions. Melina entrusted the other party with 1 gold lei to take Su to the beach in Innsmouth to play in the water. This is Clockwork Cat's latest research. They believe that Su's black dragon bloodline also has the ability to be close to water flow. They want to see if they can make Su learn to swim, so that they can provide Melina with underwater support.
The other party teased her before leaving:
"Miss Melina, letting an invisible person take care of your family is really something you can imagine."
"What else can't be thought of?" Melina joked, "For example, 'It depends on your face'?"
"You bastard, you are racist!" Miss Invisible Man was very unhappy, "We still have the invisible medicine. I will let you see what I look like when the time comes, but don't be scared by my beauty!"
"Okay, okay..." Melina was rather perfunctory, but the invisible man driver didn't have any visible medicine on hand, so he could only drive away with an angry voice.
Invisible people generally have very dark skin tones.
Because they often bask in the sun.
The invisibility of invisible people does not mean that they hide from the sun. On the contrary, they are exposed to the wind and sun every day, so their skin will naturally appear dark and occasionally a little vicissitudes - after all, they do not know what their skin is like. Come on, the revealing potion is not cheap.
Nothing is cheap in this world now, but I heard that the price of meat is going to drop again.
Melina remembered that Georgia and Sonia had discussed [Bill 65], nicknamed the [Pork Bill], a bill proposed by the Explorers Guild. She probably felt that Melina didn’t understand it well, so the two acted as She looked at the bill with a sinister look on her face.
But what is there that Melina doesn't understand?
If you think about it carefully, you will basically understand it.
Bill 65 subsidizes pork to lower the market price, and the economy of this subsidy is recovered from the explorer's potion tax. However, explorers have long been accustomed to the increase in their taxes. This is also the purpose. High-level explorers use their high income to drive the income of low-level explorers and mid-level explorers, as well as the income of ordinary people in this world.
Of course, the potion tax is actually a tax on the rich.
Except for rich women like Sonia who always keep high-end potions, only mid-level explorers and above will always keep them.
Although she agrees with this method of adjusting wealth distribution, Sonia still can't avoid some weird words...
Speaking of Sonia, she also came to Tasia's land today.
She negotiated a timber contract with Tasia, exchanging high-quality timber factors for technical support to re-lay the magic factor network in the Weeping Peninsula and provide technical support for a set of valuable invisible subway roads.
Melina originally said she would go back to Hamlet to wait for her, but it took a while to visit the stone factory, so she simply made an appointment locally.
After a while, Sonia appeared on the street and walked towards her, asking with a smile:
"How are things going?"
Melina raised her chin proudly:
"Needless to say, it's easy to catch!"
