Chapter 145: The Crooked Gnome Technology Tree

"These guys! So unscrupulous!"

Duranton stomped his feet in anger: "Groca is drunk! He is drunk! They don't care about such a big thing!"

"You have the nerve to say it?"

Croto laughed and said, "If you hadn't tasted it first, you probably would have gone down and snatched it now.w(ww.."

Duranton had nothing to say.

Of course, Tang En would not miss this good opportunity to gain reputation among the dwarves, and immediately shouted: "Don't snatch them, just treat these wines as gifts I give you. You can line up to get a glass and taste it slowly. However, there are not many wines in total, so I can only say sorry for friends who haven't drunk it."

"Of course," Tangen changed his subject, "I will open a brewery in my territory, Ellington, in the future. If any dwarf brother wants to drink this kind of wine again, he can go to my territory and I will definitely be warmly entertained."

Durandon was stunned. He had never seen such a shameless person!

He actually came to dig the corner of the dwarf in front of him, the dwarf king!

"It's okay, it's okay!"

"Human friend! You are so good! I will definitely go to Ellington to see you if you have the chance!"

"Great! I was the first to line up!"

The dwarves immediately cheered and began to line up next to them.

Tang En handed over the remaining wine to a dwarf and asked him to take charge of it. As a reward, he could get an extra cup. The dwarf happily accepted it, and then Tang En planned to put away the remaining things.

"Wait!"

Duranton stopped Tang En in a hurry: "Didn't you agree to leave some for me? Why did you give them all!?"

Tang En spread his hands: "Forgot."

"Why are you doing this!"

Durant looked at the dwarves who were rushing to receive the wine and couldn't continue to calm down: "No! You must have hidden something!"

Durant looked at Tang En with a weird look. He remembered that more than forty barrels were steamed out before, but now he has only taken out more than twenty barrels. It is obvious that Tang En has hidden a lot.

Can this be realized?

Tang En was speechless.╞┡╡.<.

Durandon threatened Don: "Leave me a few barrels, or I will expose you! You also see how excited they are now."

"Okay OK, you won..."

Tang En raised his hand and surrendered: "After going back, have you left a few buckets of assembly?"

"That's right," Durant patted Don't in the belly and laughed, "As the honorary national of our dwarf kingdom, of course we must be filial to me, the king."

He died young! The king actually asked for bribes!

"In addition to this," Durant coughed lightly, his eyes drifting towards the wine steamer next to him, "What are you going to do with this winemaking equipment?"

"Of course I took it away..."

"No, no, no. Big brother, look..."

When Tang En heard him call him his eldest brother, he knew that he had made some thoughts again.

"You have said before that you don't like drinking much, and it's useless to take this set of equipment back. Why don't you give it to me?"

Durandon gave Tangen a thumbs up: "The Dwarf King will not forget your credit!"

"I can use it myself if I take it back..."

"No, it's a waste if you use it yourself!"

Duranden said with a heartache: "Would you like to see so many dwarves who have tasted new styles of wine never drink this wine again?"

Tang En said with a smile: "So didn't I say it before? You can go to Ellington."

Durandon said with a smile: "Don't you really blush when you poach me so openly?"

"Blush? What is that? Can you eat it?"

Duranton said viciously: "Give me this set of equipment, I won't care about you poaching me!"

“It’s not enough.”

Don Eun didn't care about this equipment at first, but the reason why this is not to arouse Durant's appetite and start the price?

"What else do you want?...I understand!"

Durandon suddenly realized, and glared at the eyes after a while. After holding it in, he said, "What you said before, I will work hard to promote the passage in the King's Council, right? "

Tang En smiled: "They are yours. ┡ der ┢┢.?."

“Great!”

Duranton laughed wildly, rushed over and waved his hand, and the entire set of brewing equipment disappeared instantly. He was put into the space equipment.

Don En, who received Durant's promise, was also very happy. He could make winemaking equipment at any time, and there were few opportunities to "sell" such high value.

He is probably the only one in the entire human kingdom to obtain the right to hire dwarf employees and to reach ore transactions with the dwarf kingdom. With the help of the dwarf kingdom, although magical metal ore may still be a problem, the supply of ordinary gold, silver, copper and iron should not be a problem. Among them, the largest iron consumed is the supply of Brussels iron mines. Ellington can enter a period of high development.

The remaining puzzle is how to quickly transport these ores and the asphalt dug out of the black swamp to Ellington.

Although it can be transported by manpower, you must know that time is money, and degree is life. Only with higher efficiency can we bring faster expansion.

Groca was completely drunk. Donne left him a note and asked him to wake up and go to the Forge House to find him, and then went for lunch with Durant and Cloto.

Looking at Duranton, who was smiling on the dining table and looking like a villain, Cloto couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

"What are you laughing at?"

Durant said with confidence: "This is a transaction! Do you understand the transaction?"

"I understand..."

Cloto laughed and suddenly looked at Tang En: "Tang En. You said you wanted to talk to me before. What do you want to talk about? About engineering?"

Tang En swallowed the barbecue and smiled: "Yes, I have always been very interested in dwarf technology and have some research."

"oh!?"

A human who studies engineering and is interested in dwarf technology?

Cloto's eyes lit up: "Which aspect is it?"

Tang En smiled slightly: "Magic drive."

“Magic drive?”

Cloto frowned: "It's a strange field to me, and you should know that we gnomes cannot use magic."

"Of course I know, but what I'm studying is how to directly convert the magic power in the magic crystal or magic core into power to drive engineering machinery that ordinary people can use."

After hearing what Tang En said, Cloto's eyes lit up: "Yes, this is a good idea."

"Master Cloto, I want to know what are you currently using as the power of engineering machinery?"

"Steam...uses a semi-sealed container and then uses the power of steam expansion to drive the machinery. Do I need to explain the specific principle to you?"

"No need, I roughly understand, don't you have a more advanced power source?"

"there is none left."

Cloto said helplessly: "Although the ancestors of the dwarfs created very brilliant achievements, and even went to Lolita and Loliya. However, that big explosion destroyed all the records of civilization. Now we can only search and search for clues from various ruins and strive to restore the achievements of our ancestors."

"Although some of the things have been restored, to be honest, many devices only know how to build them. But the principle is not yet understood, so the failure rate is very high."

Tang En was stunned. He only realized now that the dwarfs of Plandal had already created the steam engine. Not only that, their ancestors had already rushed out of Plandal and landed on the two satellites of 6!

Tang En was in awe. It seemed that he underestimated the civilization potential of dwarfs and goblins. These two races with poor appearances were probably more civilized than those of humans on earth!

After the conversation was opened, Croto and Donn started chatting while having lunch while drinking beer. What embarrassed Duranton was that he couldn't get into the conversation about the two of them.

Although those words can be understood even after being separated, they are completely blind after being connected.

What gear combinations calculate the conduction efficiency of force, what metal material affects the friction of steam pistons, and what damn quench cooling modules to prevent the risk of explosion of cylinders... What the hell are these!?

During the conversation with Croto, Tang Encai finally had a general understanding of the current situation of the Prandal Gnomes. As he said before, due to the big explosion, the civilization of the dwarfs and goblins almost disappeared. He could only find past records from the surviving ruins to restore them.

Simply put, the technology tree of the gnome tribe has been completely deformed. They are still using very backward steam engines as power, but they can create a lot of things that are against the will of heaven.

For example, they have simple and intelligent mechanical creatures, energy shield devices that can absorb damage, X-ray glasses that can see through, and even anti-heaven artifacts such as anti-gravity well were restored by them.

They have a strong ability to imitate and learn. These devices left over from previous civilizations can be made, or even barely used, such as the reduction ray device he mentioned before.

But why does the ray reduction device shrink the target? Why can the energy shield absorb damage? Why can X-ray glasses see through? Why can the anti-gravity well form an anti-gravity effect? ​​What is the principle? The dwarfs are all unaware of it.

The breakdown of civilization has caused them to lose their complete inheritance. Although imitation can be successful, they have not yet studied and understood the specific principles contained in many devices, which has also led to the high error rate of many devices made by dwarfs.

"Bang!"

Speaking of the excitement, Croto slammed the table and shouted excitedly: "It's all the blame for those damn green-skinned monsters! If their ancestors hadn't liked to study bombs, they wouldn't have blown up their hometown, and now we wouldn't have fallen to this point!"

"oh!"

Duranton suddenly realized: "Is this why you dwarfs don't study bombs now?"

"That's right!"

Cloto said without hesitation: "If an egg explodes, it must be the fault of goblin technology!"

Tang En muttered: "Why does this sound so familiar..."

"Ha ha!"

Duranton laughed: "That's because the goblins said, 'If an egg hatches a duck, it must be the fault of the dwarf technology'."

Clotto's angry beard shook: "That damn Rivez Goldfang! He betrayed the great scientific exhibition route! He defected to the evil capitalism!"

Recap, Plandal has no chickens or ducks. The reason for saying this is because Tang En has converted similar biological names to facilitate his name. (To be continued.)
