On the afternoon of May 12th, Lanya finally arrived at the iron mine, and Lant could get away from the busy personnel arrangements. Of course, as a non-demon woman, she had no foundation in the iron mine, so he wanted her to To implement various arrangements smoothly, Lant also spent some brainpower, such as arranging Peter Maned Wolf as the defense captain of the iron mine, and arranging Lanya as the assistant of the earth-type great fairy Elsa Iron Rock, and finally made the original All knights in the iron mine were transferred.
The first thing Lanya did when she arrived was to complain about Master Gatsby's previous behavior of reselling pickles, but Lant laughed it off: "Since we regard work-point coupons as internal currency, we must allow the citizens to use and spend them. , I just told people to spend money as money, and then I invalidated my rules because someone bought something. Which knight will trust me in the future?"
"But sir, Gatsby's behavior is likely to cause chaos in the internal caravan in the future." Lanya understood what Lant meant, but was very worried about this behavior.
"So we need to increase management of all markets. I don't mind if he eats five jars of pickles by himself, but if he wants to sell in the iron ore, he has to follow unified market rules." From the perspective of big data, The total number of territorial residents controlled by Rand has exceeded 10,000. With such a population concentrated in several large settlements, various complex problems will inevitably arise. Rant himself does not have a large governance framework, so he can only first According to the previous inertia of Yeqicheng-Benma Tribe, take one step at a time.
Rand, who was freed from his subordinates' request for instructions and reports, took the dwarf Imkawi to tinker with boilers and steam engines. Before setting off, Rant specially asked Kurya to build 5 new steam engine kits. With Lanya Ships were delivered to the iron ore together. With the blessing of steam engines, it was much more convenient for miners to transport ore.
Lant also designed a set of hanging towers for ports together with the dwarves. In Lant's hometown, shipping is a very mature mode of transportation. There are complete logistics solutions from bulk to containers. However, these solutions are all based on On the basis of industrialization and standardization, at present, let alone the Galloping Horse Plains, I am afraid that the entire human empire does not have logistics capabilities that can match the standards.
Lant could only make do with simplicity, designing some simple machines first, and then improve them little by little in the future. According to the plan, Lant will continue to stay in the iron mine, waiting for the fire-type great fairy Fianna Furnace and the earth-type great fairy Elsa Iron Rock to complete the improvement of the blast furnace and boiler. Lant will ride Taking Fianna back to Yeqi City with Liehuo, at the speed of Liehuo, Lant and Fianna would probably arrive at Yeqi City only 1 or 2 days later than Tenia and the others.
On the night of the 12th, Lant used the magic mirror to hold a more formal territorial meeting for the first time. In the presence of Huck from the Rote Territory, Jonny from Ye Qi City, the garrison knights from the salt mine, and the newly arrived King Obert · Galloping Horse and Mace Frostwolf conducted a magic mirror video conference using the emergency communication room in Yeqi City as the communication hub.
It turns out that when Lant used the magic mirror, it was just a one-on-one connection. There was a magic mirror in front of him and a magic mirror opposite him. It was like a video call between the two of them. Each holding a small piece of mirror was enough.
When Lant left, the magic mirror in Ye Qicheng's emergency communication room was only the size of a palm. However, before leaving, Wendy felt that there would be more and more mirrors in the future. As Yeqi City is the main city of Lant, a palm-sized mirror would definitely not be enough, so she commissioned Jonny and Sophia to change it into a magic mirror the size of a dressing mirror. This magic mirror can communicate with 5-6 small magic mirrors at the same time, and it looks like a split-screen display.
The split screen can not only be viewed by the people in front of the big magic mirror, but can also be output to other connected magic mirrors, allowing Lant to regain the feeling of home.
"Lant, I heard," Huck couldn't wait any longer as soon as another shadow appeared on the magic mirror, and asked Lant anxiously,
"There are three new magical fairies in our family all of a sudden. I can't believe my ears."
"Yes, father, Fianna and Elsa are with me, but Teresa Lava is following Tenia on the boat. It will probably take 3 or 4 days to get to Yeqi City."
"Why are only two of them coming back? Can't they all come back?" Huck was very anxious.
"Each of them has a lot to do," Lant looked embarrassed and thought to himself.
"Even if the four mentors go back, they won't turn around for you. Don't you feel confident about the friendship between you and the magical fairies?"
"Hey, isn't this Kai Yin?" That night, a centaur girl appeared in Qicheng's image, and the two great fairies shouted over each other,
"How are you doing lately?"
"Yes, did you miss us?"
"Ah, hello, two mentors." The centaur girl is very sensible. No matter how much the magic fairy liked to hide in her hair before, it is now a magic mentor level existence.
"I'm doing pretty well lately. You guys look like you've grown up a lot compared to before."
"Lant, Lant, someone came from the palace today and said that Queen Tyriana hopes to invite some great fairies to the royal capital." Obert, who had just arrived in the royal capital, spoke anxiously as soon as he came online.
"Who are they?" Lant still had some illusions. According to the plan, Elsa will continue to explore westward. Even if Lant can take her back to Yeqi City within two days, she still needs to go to the royal capital. At least 3 days, going back and forth is too time-consuming.
From a biological point of view, both Tania and Teresa were chosen by Queen Tyriana for Lant, so in a strict sense, she deserved to see the queen twice.
"Of course all four of them will go. The messenger from the palace has given instructions for them all to come,"
"As soon as I arrived at the Chamber of Commerce in the Royal Capital today, all the neighbors on the street came to congratulate me. They said that it was spread all over the city yesterday that four magical fairies were born in our family within a month. There are several families."
"Um, so fast?" Lant was a little confused. He just hoped to develop silently on the border and didn't want to be too high-profile. However, it seems that a low-key life is impossible at the moment.
"Sir, the messenger from the palace said that he can communicate with you tomorrow morning to discuss in detail how to invite several mentors to come over." Looking at the image of his second brother in the magic mirror, Lant felt a little gurgling in his heart. He hugged the big tree of Dragon Blood Queen Tyriana and got too close to Li Qi. Now that he has just developed a little, he has to bear the price of the previous gifts.
"Sir?" When Lant noticed the magic mirror again, he saw Jonny asking him,
"Can I come to the iron mine to see the magic furnace and steam engine here?"
"What's wrong?" Rant was still thinking about the invitation from the royal capital and did not understand Jonny's thoughts.
"I think the existing steam engine and blast furnace plans can be modified, especially for iron ore and salt mines," Jonny said, taking out a piece of paper with a rather complicated magic circle drawn on it.
"Sir, this is a magic circle in the underground ruins. It can drive the gears to rotate through the magic power of the earth veins. I think this magic circle can be used directly at the output end of the steam engine. In this way, in cities with magic furnaces, all transmission machinery can use the energy of the earth veins. , and coal can be used exclusively for smelting and heating."
"Well, what you said is very good, but you shouldn't come to the iron mine," Lant probably had an idea,
"I guess I have to leave for Yeqi City tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Then I will bring the dwarves and the big goblin back, and you can just study there."
