Before ascending to God, be a good lord

Chapter 591

Luo Jin took Rand to the warehouse of Yantie Division, but when he was about to leave the Tower of Purity, he ran into Teferi Klein. The old mage waited halfway with a few people, and his expression was not very good.

"Earl Lant, just now the entire Imperial School has heard rumors that you plan to let a group of Magister's children share the lessons of the Tower of Purity?"

Teferi asked with some resentment, "When you came last time, you praised the history of the Tower of Purity and the Galloping Horse family. Don't you know that what the Tower of Purity values ​​most is that the common people can also obtain education? Don't you Are you going to let our teacher teach the children of those dandy nobles?"

Rand looked at the magister in front of him. He just finished talking with Sherman about the business. He was in a good mood, so he choked back: "Our Benma family brought nearly 300 million gold coins to the imperial capital. If Mentor Teferi can Help me get this money back, I am willing to invest all this money in civilian education!"

"Eh..." Teferi suddenly misfired.

Lante knew that it would be impossible to ask these mages to press the bills, so he continued to ask: "If it is not possible, my two knights add up to 300 people, the barbarian cavalry has more than 3000 people, and there are 70 infantry and auxiliary troops. People, it is expected to spend [-] gold coins to resist the orc attack, can you help me find it from the galloping horse fund?"

Teferi stopped talking, this is of course impossible, they spend countless money every year, and the money is used for magic research, so is it possible to give the money they want to a knight?
"If it still doesn't work, I can still make some money by building a magic furnace, but all the money needs to go into the account of the Benma Fund. I don't know if you can let the Benma Fund be stripped from the general ledger of the Yeqi City Finance Department Come out? Let the money I earn not go through the Benma Fund?" Rand spoke louder and louder, although there was still a smile on his face, but his mood became worse and worse.

The faces of Teferi and the other mages, who were still full of anger just now, were already a little ashamed.

He looked at the mage behind him, and said to Rand: "Earl Rand... If you really need money, I can persuade several families to contribute..."

"Very well, now a group of nobles from the imperial capital are not only willing to raise a sum of money for me, but also willing to pay for an extra share of potion expenses. The only requirement is that their children come to the Benma Academy. They are willing to use their own funds to cultivate pure Students of the tower, why not do it?"

Seeing that the magisters had no more words, Rand followed Luo Jin away, and said before leaving: "We can receive another 200 students from the Tower of Purity this week, and come with this group of children."

Teferi looked at Rand's receding figure and shook his head,

The mentor Glamorgan on the side came over and asked with some concern: "The Earl of Lant's approach sounds like the introduction of a group of nobles, which not only balances power but also provides potions.

Glamorgan is not optimistic about Lant's use of the Imperial School to balance the Tower of Purity: "But the Tower of Purity has been practiced countless times in the past hundreds of years, and these two groups of people will eventually fight each other. It's not a simple student struggle, but a family struggle behind the students."

Ben Kaur came over and nodded to the two mentors. As a legend who has experienced more than a hundred years of ups and downs, Ben is well aware of these things.

"Ben? Why don't you try to persuade him, the large-scale introduction of nobles from other regions is a road of no return, the schools of the imperial capital are complicated, and behind any child there may be hundreds of thousand-year-old families." Teferi Say something.

"Among all the problems he faces, the thing that there are too many dudes in the imperial capital, which will appear in 20 years, is probably the least urgent thing," Ben Kaur said with a smile. "The rest include but not Limited to empty financial pockets, orcs sharpening their knives, and the family is eyeing, from his point of view, it is not necessarily a bad thing to introduce some nobles from the imperial capital to hedge against the influence of the Benma family."

"Then how many children is he planning to introduce? It can't be 4000 children, right?"

……

From the Tower of Purity to the warehouse near the melting furnace of Yantiesi, you can go directly through a special transmission channel. It is this special transmission door that makes the melting furnace a hundred kilometers away count as part of the new imperial capital area.

The warehouse of Yantie Division is located on a flat ground at the foot of Furnace Mountain. When you come down from the mountain, you can see a large building like a castle. It is said that these warehouses were also built by Queen Padmira.The height of the inner floor of the warehouse is generally more than 50 meters. It sounds like a huge space, but it is full of huge machines.

Although Rand was alone when he arrived at the Furnace Hall, his dwarves were all studying here. Sophia and Johnny also arrived in the hall in the morning. When they heard that there was such a good thing about treasure hunting in the warehouse, they all followed.

"My lord, these devices... are so big!" Jonny looked up and looked around. As the magician who knew the "stove" the most in the territory, she wanted to move to the warehouse.

Rand on the side didn't speak, but swallowed.

Seeing everyone so fascinated, Luo Jin, a high-level rune master, said proudly: "Earl Lante, the blast furnaces you saw were all blast furnaces replaced by Yantie Sitai, and each one was cast according to the standard material ratio. , definitely not the junk that can be seen everywhere!"

"铛~铛" After tapping the blast furnace with your fingers, there will be a crisp sound, which is almost exactly the same as the newly built magic furnace wall. In Rand's eyes, these so-called replaced goods can catch up with the newly cast equipment.

"Since the materials are so good, why are the piles here?" Lante couldn't move them when he saw the stoves.

"The furnace hall has been remodeled several times, and the furnace got bigger and bigger, so the smaller one was replaced." Seeing Rand like this, Luo Jin knew that he was tempted, and quickly said, "My lord, what His Excellency Sherman just said , including only the salt pots, not these stoves!"

Rand glanced at the high-ranking dwarf in surprise, "Of course I know that, you don't think I'm going to take it away right away! But since it was replaced, there should be a price, right?"

"We have an external quotation. A complete set of equipment can be taken for 70 gold coins, but if it includes installation and magic pattern drawing, it will cost more than one million gold coins." Luo Jin looked at Rand and said with a smile, "Your Excellency, now Making a magic furnace is almost 25 gold coins, if..."

"I bought it!" Rand didn't wait for Rojindo to say anything, "Cash, gold coins will be paid through the Temple of Commerce!"

"Huh?" Luo Jin almost thought he heard it wrong.

"My lord? What did you say just now?" Sophia and Johnny had just recovered, and looked at Rand with puzzled faces.

"I said that I will buy a whole set of smelting production line now. According to the price of Yantie Division, 100 million gold coins, sign the contract today, and just go to the Temple of Fortune to get the money." Rand said without any tone, from Moge Castle Only the little cardinal and the big goblin knew about bringing back a large amount of gold coins. Although the monsters saw a pile of gold coins, they had no idea about money.

Since this huge sum of tens of millions of gold coins was minted tens of thousands of years ago, it cannot be directly used for payment in the empire's domestic market, and once the emperor knows that he has made a windfall, he will definitely miss it, so he simply took the money directly from the central bank. : Transfer money from the Temple of Commerce.

"My lord, in fact, you can pay with the proceeds from the future magic furnace..." Luo Jin didn't expect that Rante would be so forthright, let alone that he could come up with 100 million gold coins in cash.

Luo Jin brought Rand to the warehouse to look at this set of smelting equipment this time, and he was going to buy it. The price of one million gold coins is enough to occupy most of Rand's income from the magic furnace. Entering the plate of the Benma Fund together can turn into a funding project that lasts for decades.

However, Rand not only had money, but also had an independent payment channel, so he flatly rejected the dwarf's proposal.

"No need, I hope to put this equipment in the new industrial area as soon as possible, I can't wait to see it smelt the first batch of molten steel!"
