The Difference Is Like Between a Dog and a Cow

98 – Reinhardt’s technology is the best in the world (4)

Mercedes Dr. Musk.

I tried to approach it with the most relaxed attitude, but as soon as I heard the name, my body jumped out first than I thought.

“Nice to see you again.”

As soon as I almost kicked open the door, Captain Johannes greeted me warmly. The middle-aged man with his hair neatly combed standing next to him must be Dr. Mercedes.

A rare genius and Tier 1 scientist hero who made it possible for Reinhardt to acquire these skills. It seems that he couldn’t help but lose his hair.

I hurriedly moved my gaze away from the shiny hair and greeted him politely.

“Nice to meet you. This is Mercedes Musk.”

“It is truly an honor to meet the renowned Dr. Please come inside.”

If there are 12 great mages on the sorcery side, there are also 8 scientists at the opposite point.

One of them was Mercedes Musk of the Reinhardt Empire. Of course, on top of the cavalry, I thought he would have technical connections to the extent of introducing Count Petrinant’s military fair, but he never thought he would bring such a big man.

‘Still, the future artillery chief is the artillery chief.’

I led the two of them straight to the drawing room inside the dorm. Rumia prepares simple refreshments for guests to arrive. After all, if it was a chuck, it was a chuck.

“One more guest has come. May I ask for another cup of tea, Ensign?”

“Of course.”

Rumia answered with a soft voice and laughed. Johannes asked with a slightly surprised look at the elegance of her subtle composure.

“Were you a nobleman? It’s a completely different atmosphere from when I saw it at the fairgrounds.”

“Whoops, thank you.”

Even I misunderstood it the first time I saw it. As it’s not something I’ve heard once or twice, Lieutenant Rumia Bluet skillfully prepared another cup of tea.

“Then I will go in, glory to my country.”

“Glory.”

Handing me an angular salute, he disappeared upstairs where he was staying. It was a neat and sensible finish.

“I am amazed that there are so many talented people in Ukraine.”

“With the winds of change blowing all over the world, there is no way that our country can withstand it.”

“The Archmage of the Sky is also maintaining a cooperative relationship with the Reinhardt Empire in many ways.”

Light ice breaking and formal greetings.

I didn’t just lie around after being possessed by this world, so I was able to talk with Dr. Mercedes without difficulty based on the information I had heard from newspapers and people.

I don’t know if this was due to the correction of the possessor, but it was also thanks to my ability to speak the Reinhardt language to some extent.

“You’re pretty good at Reinhardt. Did you use interpretation magic?”

“hahahahaha, there is no learning without meaning. In the future, the whole world will come together, but there is nothing wrong with studying in advance.”

“You seem to have the same perspective as me from the perspective of future sociology.”

Not bad.

Dr. Musk was looking at me with a very friendly look. It was confirmed that not only does she speak her own language to some extent, but also her scientific and social views are similar.

“Then let’s get straight to the point… ….”

“Pivot recoil cannon. I heard that it is currently being developed in Ukraine.”

“Yes, I am.”

“Have you ever produced a prototype?”

I pondered for a moment, then shook my head and answered. I said it vaguely to Johannes, but since I brought the doctor, I can’t show such disrespect.

“No. However, the prototype gun barrel itself was completed. The last time I saw it, it was successful in recoil control.”

“You say you succeeded in applying the concept.”

“Yes.”

“…… Ugh.”

In fact, it is not uncommon for many people to think of similar ideas at the same time.

It’s the same with just the phone. It is known that Alexander Graham Bell invented it, but in fact, the concept itself was established by several inventors and scientists even before that.

Even if he applied for a patent at a critical time and dragged on for a few more hours, the title of first inventor of the telephone would have been taken away from someone named Elisha Gray.

It is no different from Haojie. The phone I saw at the fair——military communication equipment is also being actively developed not only in the Reinhardt Empire but also in the Breton United Kingdom.

Of course, the reason why Ukraine was able to apply the concept of copier was purely because there was a variable called me.

Dr. Musk seemed to think that way. Perhaps his brain is changing his assessment of Ukraine in real time.

“We were also developing a mobile artillery that operated with a similar concept… ….”

“Is that so?”

“Because it is not easy to apply this concept.”

While the jutoebok sitting ceremony looks very simple, it is a more complex concept than you might think. Right now, because of the lack of technical skills, all we had to do was make guns with a caliber smaller than 57mm, in modern terms, mortars.

If Reinhardt’s technology is the best in the world, if the concept itself is well done, it will be possible to develop a field gun with a much larger and more beautiful caliber than we who are struggling with only 57mm.

‘It’ll depend on how delicious the feed is thrown over there.’

I tapped the bottom of the table with my finger and watched the doctor and captain’s reaction. There’s only one thing i want It was the support of the Reinhardt Empire for the ‘rail transport system’ including armored trains.

“I heard from Captain Johannes that he has a strong interest in the Moldoke armored train we are currently developing.”

“Eh.”

“We will guarantee the right to purchase an improved Moldoke armored train. Sell the rights to the concept.”

Guarantee of train purchase right and technical copyright?

The balance calculation is a little off.

“Hmm.”

As I pulled back slightly, Captain Johannes and Dr. Mercedes exchanged glances.

“Then, what do you think about setting up a local factory and doing licensed production? Although we cannot guarantee the copyright of all armored trains, we can produce them ourselves if it is a general military transport train.”

Look at this. Because it bounces a little, a proposal that cannot be compared to before comes out.

Actually, up to this point, it was within the scope of what both of them thought. It is only natural that even if you are a magic officer who accompanies the great mage Sonny Zeppelin, it is natural for you to look at the other person.

In the end, both Johannes and Mercedes could be seen as traders. The basics of bargaining were to start with a low unit price and raise it slowly to meet the appropriate standard.

If you just accept the condition from a moment ago, it’s a wastewater.

Now, even though Reinhardt has proposed the obvious merit of local licensed production, if it bounces one more time, it’s a heavy water.

‘We are always in a hurry.’

Four years from now. The Soviet Empire will invade Ukraine with overwhelming numbers and firepower.

If you don’t want your land to be overrun by mutants and other new weapons that incorporate all kinds of cutting-edge technology. It’s just that you can’t keep your neck stiff.

“…… Great. We will consult with the Ukrnian Technical Research Department as soon as possible. I guarantee that there will be good results.”

“Thank you. Joint development will definitely benefit both sides.”

“Of course.”

I stood up and held out my hand to Dr. Mercedes. Okay, thank you, okay! License!

The maximum that can be obtained from the Empire of Technology has been obtained. From now on, it was my turn to roll the snowball.

After that, Cavalry Captain Johannes and Dr. Mercedes had a light time with Enoch Levandel. They also talked about conversations that can only be had because they are people from other countries, and the future international situation.

At first, he was a doctor who was nervous, but he also had a conversation with Enoch Levandel and realized that the Ukrnian man in front of him was not a simple criminal.

“How are you, Doctor?”

“It is as you say. He has a sense of sophistication. The idea is very forward-looking. To be honest, he is a talent that is a waste to have in Ukraine.”

It was highly praised. If Dr. Mercedes, who was very stingy in evaluating people, said something like that, it meant that he quite liked Captain Enoch.

Captain Johannes Weissenberg also did not dislike Enoch Levandel. He just got the feeling that he must be hiding something.

However, Johannes did not bother to say it. Could he have misjudged himself?

No matter how promising an officer Enoch Levandel may be, he could not possess that level of insight. If that was the case, he would be called a great sage in a magic tower somewhere instead of enlisting in the army.

In return, the cavalry captain strongly agreed with Dr. Mercedes.

“I have a good sense of external cooperation in technology and coordination of proposals. I heard that he is a new officer who has just been commissioned for about 7 months, and I can understand why he was promoted so quickly.”

“From second lieutenant to captain in 7 months. If it’s the talent that the Great Mage of the Sky thought he would raise himself, that’s understandable enough.”

“I agree.”

Dr. Mercedes nodded.

“Anyway, keep this in mind. We have an obligation to lead the Reich people to a more progressive future. If we can get help from the Ukrnians, we should get it, but they are not yet comparable to us.”

“From the moment I decided to put my life into the military, I was ready to dedicate myself to the Reich people.”

“Some people will think that we are madmen, or that we are cold-blooded, with no blood or tears. Don’t feel guilty.”

Reich caution.

It was a combination of expansionism and nationalism, which was spreading widely among the intellectuals of the empire recently.

“For the Reich.”

“For the Reich.”

The meeting of three people who will lead the turbulent era ahead. No one knew what the consequences of this would be.
