The Ominous Lord of the Skaven

Chapter 251 The First Machine Tool

The policy of revitalizing the territory needs to be implemented for a long time to be effective, and in the final analysis, these measures only increase the production enthusiasm of the Ratmen, and do not solve the problem of the lack of industrial machinery in the territory.

Not to mention the magic forging hammer, even the magic machine territory itself can't produce much.

It takes a long time to upgrade the industry. At least within half a year, Eckert will not be able to provide Rossodol with enough machinery to start work.

However, if he really makes his good senior wait for too long, there will be a risk of economic collapse on Ross Sodol's side. After all, Mysore is also considered a venture capital investment. It is only after seeing the huge benefits brought by industrial production that it chooses to believe his.

Eckert can't neglect his first client, and he still counts on Senior Mysore to help him with publicity.

In this way, there is only one thing that can be done.

More pain for the Radley clan!

At the same time, Qiao Qiao, who was far away in Skaven Magic City, frowned and couldn't help but sneezed.

Ickert's oppression of the Ledley clan is indeed appalling, but in terms of the attitude of the early colonial empires towards the colonies, it is far from harsh.

At best, it can be regarded as sustainable fishing.

In fact, what Ickert didn't know was that due to Jojo's long-term oppression, the Ledley clan almost exploded.

The remnants of several conquered clans attempted to challenge Qiao Qiao's status and led the slave rats to launch a rebellion. Numerous slave rats charged at the clan's machine gun positions with stone knives in their hands, and the situation was once on the verge of collapse.

But fortunately, the brains of the Rebel Rats are not very good.

They gave Clan Skryre too little, far less than JoJo, and the local representative of Clan Skryre also said that you couldn't find another rat that was dumber than JoJo, he kept buying Industrial equipment, and never stopped.

The most important thing is that he has not accomplished anything yet, even if he has accomplished nothing, he is still unswerving in wanting to spend money.

It really touched the ten rats of the Scully clan.

Therefore, not only did the Skuri clan not ignore the predicament of the Ledley clan, but uncharacteristically sent troops to quell the clan's rebellion. Clan jurisdiction.

If they weren't controlled by other ratman clans, the Skryre clan would definitely squeeze these rats themselves, but in fact, it's not bad to leave this matter to Jojo.

The performance of the rat, Jojo, did not disappoint them. Not only did he take the initiative to compensate the Skryre clan for the warpstone bullets lost, but he also bought three Rat Tlings for defense to maintain his reign of terror.

Not only that, but the new orders that Windsor needed were further sent to the Skryre Clan's factory, and the other party accepted the order with tears and smiles, saying that the Ledley Clan is indeed a staunch ally of the Skryre Clan , and called Jojo brothers one after another.

This mouse oppressed other clans much harder than them!
Although I don't know why this guy just hit the industry, but as long as you give the dimension stone, we will be good friends.

The 30 magical forging hammers ordered by Mysore were completed in an instant, and Ickert only needed to use the steam forging hammers of the Ratmen to make some improvements.

Along with it, basic machine tools, including ten lathes, were ordered to expand the production capacity of the territory.

The most important thing is that Ickert didn't spend a penny, and all the costs were passed on to the tens of thousands of slave rats of the Laidley clan.

Looking at the deposit of 1500 gold coins in the warehouse, which can be said to be prostituted from Mysore for nothing, Ickert scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

If the senior knew that he used this method to produce orders, he would probably be so angry that he vomited blood.

That's 500 gold coins for one set.

After the new round of squeezing the Ledley clan ended, Ickert began to pay attention to the most important industrial projects in the territory.

The first lathe in the territory led by Old Kent should have been born.

Ickert brought people to the Ministry of Industry again, and the place has changed a lot.

The earth mages replaced the Ministry of Industry with a large shed roof house. This thing is ugly, far less sturdy than a cement brick house, but it can be built with magic power, and it is easy to repair and maintain.

This is the adobe house that Ickert intends to roll out on a large scale in the next stage, to make a transition for the urban development of the territory.

There is no need to be too entangled with the appearance. Ickert still values ​​the interior of the Ministry of Industry.

In the noisy factory building, workers are nervously producing parts one after another.

"How's the situation, old Kent?"

Ickert asked with concern the only eighth-level fitter in the territory, and he was the only one who could guarantee the accuracy of the territory's machine tools.

The lathe to be produced in the territory this time is known as the "mother of all machines" in the industrial field.

Lathes are almost universal. Although many processing methods can be replaced by other more efficient processing machines, lathes can process almost any surface.

As small as an iron rod, as large as a rolling rod, a giant shaft, or even boring, milling, and sawing, as long as the position of the fixture, tool and workpiece can be changed reasonably, there is nothing it cannot handle.

Lathes are the soul of the machinery industry.

Now, in front of old Kent, a lathe designed and manufactured by the territory itself is gradually taking shape.

"Master Territory, the lathe will be finished soon."

When Old Kent saw Ickert coming, he said respectfully.

"Now, the factory rats are checking the meshing of each gear, and measuring whether the error between the scale of the turntable and the actual feed is up to standard."

Hearing this news, Ickert also breathed a sigh of relief.

The progress of the project to this point shows that the overall configuration and parts fit of the lathe meet the standards, at least there is no problem in moving.

The only question is whether the accuracy of this lathe is up to standard.

And with old Kent, an eighth-level fitter, there, Ickert believes that the result should be gratifying.

After a while, the Ratman completed the measurement, and the feed error was within the predetermined range.

Seeing this, Eckert looked at the threaded rod of the lathe with great relief. The success of this machine tool was not only due to the old fitter, Kent, but also the excellent skills of the lathe workers in the territory. The wizards in charge of the design Nor was it lazy.

Ickert is quite satisfied with the machine tool in front of him.

"Test drive!"

Whether the thing is working or not, it is still necessary to test the power after all. Several factory rats connected the power to the lathe and started a trial run. The test results showed that the performance of this type of lathe was excellent at all speeds.

If there is any abnormality, old Kent will definitely point it out in person. After working in the machinery factory for so long, the old master has already begun to feel the subtle abnormal noises when the machinery is running, and he can figure out many problems as soon as he hears them.

Old Kent called this ability machine soul listening, and also wrote a fault identification manual, which recorded the various operating states of the machine soul, the most serious situation being "the machine soul is unhappy".

The lathe in front of me didn't have any problems. After the initial running-in period, the machine soul has shown a happy state.

The Ratmen used this lathe to make another trial workpiece.

"The error is within the range!"

In a word, the employees present were extremely happy.

Ickert also took advantage of the situation and explained to Virgil:
"Give them a bonus, one gold coin per person, and send it to the castle after the statistics are completed. It can be approved tomorrow at the latest. This money cannot be saved. I will personally determine the rewards for the R&D personnel."

"Yes, my lord."

This kind of thing that can greatly stimulate industrial production, Ickert does not intend to be stingy at all. He wants to tell everyone and the mouse with practical actions that increasing productivity means making a fortune.
