MTL - Heroes of Silver Moon-Chapter 55 : Alchemy Workshop?
"Let's go." Grand Duke Gaseppe waved his hand to Rolando, and Rolando immediately opened the umbrella and propped it on top of Grand Duke Gaseppe's head.
Watching Grand Duke Gasepe leave slowly, Dies stretched his muscles and said with a wry smile: "I'm really old. It would be great if I broke through to the master level back then."
Only when a professional breaks through to the master level can he live longer than others, otherwise the life span is the same as that of ordinary people, at most it is a little stronger when he is old.
Just like Dies and Grand Duke Gaseppe, when Dies followed Grand Duke Gaseppe to the southern border, he was still a teenager, and Grand Duke Gaseppe already had a little gray hair at that time.
But now, more than 50 years later, Dies's body is even older than that of Grand Duke Gaseppe. This is because Grand Duke Gaseppe is a master fighter, while Dies is only a senior fighter.
Shaking his head, Dies stopped sighing, the past is over after all, the talent is not enough, the resources are not enough, these things can not be blamed on others.
If it weren't for following Grand Duke Gasepe, I guess I wouldn't even be able to cultivate Dou Qi, let alone become a high-level fighter now.
In the banquet hall, Guy knocked it away. With the fork in Deborah's hand, Deborah managed to **** the last piece of grilled lamb chop, and Guy swallowed it in one bite.
"Uh", Simon was already numb. Anyway, he couldn't figure out why Guy could eat such a big lamb chop in one bite.
Since you can't figure it out, why do you have to think about it again, although Simon looks disillusioned.
But the portrayal of the heart is: you group of souls are weak, I didn't grab a piece of meat, look at the virtues of each of you, are you all reincarnated from starvation ghosts!
(roar)
Dies came in at this time and said to Simon and others: "Masters, please eat as soon as possible, it is already eleven o'clock, and you have to get up early tomorrow."
"It's eleven o'clock?" Simon was a little surprised, not surprised that it was so late, but surprised that someone could tell the time so accurately.
You know, when Simon was in Gaoshanbao, the time words he heard were always, probably, almost, maybe, these speculative words.
"What's the surprise? There's a watch over there." Guy hiccupped and pointed to a small box next to him. Simon saw this small box when he just entered the door. He always thought it was used to hold things, but it didn't Think of it as a time instrument.
Simon walked over and carefully observed the small box. On the top of the small box, he found a disc marking the time. It was very similar to the dial Simon had seen in his previous life, but without the second hand.
"Interesting", Simon studied with relish, but what he couldn't understand was why the dial was on the top of the box instead of the front. You must know that if the dial is on the front, it is more conducive for people to see the time.
Simon remembered that most of the clocks in the previous life, except for some special-purpose watches, basically had dials on the front.
"Why is the dial on the top?" Simon decided to ask if he didn't understand, so he said to the old butler, "If the dial is on the front, isn't it more convenient for people to see the time?"
"Well, I know, I know." Before Dies could speak, Guy couldn't wait to jump out, wanting to show his presence.
"There are also watches with the dial on the front, but the production process is too complicated, so it is very expensive. Although the watch with the dial on the top is not very convenient to see the time, the manufacturing process is simpler, and the price is also higher than that of the dial on the front. The watch is cheap".
Guy explained the reason in one breath, and then said to Dies: "Hey, that's right!"
"Uh, that's right, it's because of that," Dies nodded and said.
"Hiss", Simon felt a bit pained, the dial was on the front, and the production process was complicated? Shouldn't it be the same?
People in this world, what method do they use to drive the watch hands!
"Well, if you put this box upside down, wouldn't the dial be on the front? How could the manufacturing process be more complicated?" Simon weakly proposed an idea.
"Hey, it seems to be the same." Guy was immediately stopped by the question. He had never thought about it this way before, so he didn't know the reason.
"Cough, cough~", Deborah coughed twice, cleared her throat, and attracted everyone's attention by the way.
"Fart!" Guy was very dissatisfied with Deborah's pretentious appearance, so he started to taunt directly.
"You", Deborah glared at Guy angrily. He wanted to show off his knowledge just now, but after Guy finished mocking him, he just wanted to eat Guy alive.
"You two young masters, don't quarrel." At the critical moment, Dies came out and became a peacemaker.
He first comforted Deborah~www.novelbuddy.com~ and then explained to Simon: "These watch boxes are all produced in the alchemy workshop in the capital, and I don't know how this thing works. But once this watch case is placed upside down, the hands in the dial will stop immediately.”
"Alchemy Workshop? What is that? It sounds very powerful." Simon asked Dies another question.
He wanted to learn more about these things before going to the capital, so that he would not understand anything after he got the capital, and then be regarded as a country bumpkin by others.
"Alchemy workshop, let me think about what to say," Dies thought for a while.
Then he said very patiently: "Many convenient things are produced by the alchemy workshop, such as mirrors, watch boxes, magic lamps, and telescopes, etc. Of course, the prices are also very expensive."
"Oh", Simon vaguely understands that the Alchemy Workshop is a different world version of a "high-tech company", specializing in the production of these relatively high-tech items.
"How big is the alchemy workshop, and how many people are there in it?" Simon asked again. The workshop can be big or small, so he had to ask clearly, so as not to make jokes when he arrived in the capital.
"Well, I don't know much about this, I just heard from others that the size should be the size of a few courtyards.
There are only one or two alchemists inside, and a few alchemy apprentices," Dies said with some uncertainty, after all, he has never been in the alchemy workshop.
All these things he knew had been overheard over the years when Grand Duke Gasepe held a banquet while chatting with some nobles.
"Alchemists?" Simon murmured. He thought there were skilled workers in the alchemy workshop, but at the moment, it sounded like they were professionals.
