Volume 2 Chapter 4 - Helpless chairman Morgan (1/2)

This was indeed some good news.

Regarding Xu Yi’s request to rent some land, the king had considered it and had shown some agreement for now!

As for the specifics, that would depend on when Xu Yi gave an initial plan. After he showed his goals for the land, the king would truly consider it.

Moreover, this was on the premise that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce finished the first batch of agricultural magic machines on time, otherwise there was no need to mention any of this.

Of course, now that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had finished the new series of Magic Punch Presses, so this premise was no problem at all.

Compared to the magic machine workshop production line that was already in order, Xu Yi would always be more focused on research and development.

The magic machine workshop workers had already changed to their new workshop and the old workshop had been turned into a magic machine development workshop by Xu Yi.

Including Camby, Bordeau and thirteen other dwarves with the richest experience in blacksmithing specially worked on researching and developing magic machines.

Although the Magic Punch Press could be used now, it was still at initial success. Whether it was Xu Yi or Camby’s dwarves, they all felt that these Magic Punch Presses could be improved still.

Actually if it wasn’t for the fact that the king and the agricultural department’s orders were too tight, according to the ideas of Camby’s dwarves, it would take them another three months to finish these production magic machines.

As for Xu Yi who was a well known mechanical engineer on earth, he was very clear that developing these magic machines wouldn’t just take a short month and it wouldn’t just take three months, there shouldn’t be a limit to how long it took.

Even on the industrialized earth, research on machines never stopped with new results being published each year.

This was because for those corporations on earth, if they could advance their technology, they could surpass their competitors and take another part of the market.

Although there was only the Frestech Chamber of Commerce producing magic machines right now on the Sines Continent, so they didn’t feel any pressure at all, Xu Yi didn’t relax on this aspect.

Actually as Xu Yi researched magic machines even more, there were many times he found he couldn’t apply his mechanical engineering knowledge from earth. Rather he had to make a corresponding change based on the specialties of magic or the Sines Continent.

For example, like the medium Magic Drill that he had Camby’s dwarves research, it was very different from the drills on earth.

The drills on earth used the spinning drill head to bore into the earth. As for the drill that Xu Yi developed, he combined the unique magic of the Sines Continent and stuck a Fifth Grade Earth Magic Array that wasn’t weak on the drill head.

With the help of this Earth Magic Array, the drill only needed to be close to the ground. The Magic Array’s might would appear and easily create cracks in the earth and even in rock layers, saving quite a bit of time when it was drilling.

The small Magic Drill Xu Yi used to drill out the water at the Night Song Tribe was only a test product and it was already strong enough to drill through a rock layer of several meters. The medium Magic Drill developed now went a step further and the drilling power was even stronger.

Heinz had asked Xu Yi why he needed to develop this kind of thing because although the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had an iron mine, they didn’t have enough funds to open this mine right now. They could only put it aside for now, there was no use in developing this thing.

Xu Yi could only say in his heart that Heinz didn’t have any foresight.

Even if they couldn’t use it, there were people who could use it.

For example, the Falcao Chamber of Commerce’s chairman Fuller Morgan.

“Chairman Xu, this thing is actually this strong!” Chairman Morgan looked at the cracked giant rock in front of him in shock, ignoring the large amount of dust raised from it being cracked. His mouth was open in shock and it didn’t close for a while.

When he was invited by Xu Yi to witness the testing of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s new product, Chairman Morgan hesitated a while before finally deciding to come take a look.

But he never thought that the small Magic Drill that Xu Yi mentioned to him before would actually be this strong. In less than three minutes, this large stone that was three meters tall, four meters wide, and two meters thick had actually been turned into rubble.

As the Falcao Chamber of Commerce’s chairman, chairman Morgan could see that this giant rock was iron ore normally found in mines and it was very hard.

If it was the workers in the mine using pickaxes to mine this thing, even if several workers worked on it for one-two hours on this iron ore, they might not be able to crack it.

Xu Yi had two young men who weren’t that strong pick up this Magic Drill and aim it at the center of this giant iron ore. Then this iron ore that was even troublesome for chairman Morgan with his rich experience in mining actually had a hole appear in the center and was shattered to pieces.

Then the two of them continued pointing the Magic Drill at rather large pieces and all the rocks were shattered into pebbles.

This entire process added together took just over ten minutes.

Hearing chairman Morgan’s surprised voice, Xu Yi revealed a faint smile, “How about it? Chairman Morgan, are you satisfied with this Magic Drill?”

“Of course……” Chairman Morgan suddenly stopped his mouth and he looked at Xu Yi. He restrained the shock and excitement on his face as he gave a soft cough and slowly said, “Un…..This thing is indeed quite good. But chairman Xu, your Frestech Chamber of Commerce can’t seem to use this thing, right? Why would you invent this kind of thing?”

Seeing the indifferent look chairman Morgan pretended to have, Xu Yi found it funny in his heart. He looked surprised as he said, “Who says we can’t use it? Chairman Morgan, you’ve forgotten that our company had gained an iron mine from the auction last time. We invented this thing just to open that mine. Chairman Morgan, your Falcao Chamber of Commerce are experts in opening mines, so I invited you here to have a look at this. Is this thing very good at opening mines?”

Chairman Morgan really wanted to shake his head, but with facts in front of him, the Magic Drill’s might would slap him in the face if he denied it. So he could only give a dry laugh before nodding, “Un, it’s very good.”
