Chapter 31 The trip to the industrial area

After leaving the business district, Charles and Harkala, who had finished shopping, came to the dwarf's work area to visit.

The work area is the core area of ​​the entire forging holy land, and a wide and high city wall surrounded it.

In addition to merchants, there are many people who come here with curiosity like them, because there are unique buildings on the mainland.

At this time, Charles finally knew why Diana had to stabilize her values. Although he had already prepared mentally, the scene in front of him was completely different from what he thought.

Because the houses here are all made of concrete, one of the essential artifacts for travelers.

Like many first-time tourists, Charles touched here and knocked there on the smooth walls.

The manager of the city wall was not concerned about this and rented a small hammer for Charles. As long as you don't use the power of magic, you can knock it anyway.

Charles used his hand to touch the hammer and knock the concrete wall in front of him, estimating its various parameters.

"I'll take a break, slag cement?"

Looking at the city wall in front of him with a harder hardness than ordinary concrete, combined with the smelting workshops here, Charles thought of a high-strength cement.

The dwarf who rented a hammer by the city wall looked at the stunned Charles with a proud look on his face. This dwarf has seen many people as surprised as him.

As a construction worker, Charles has a deep understanding of cement, not only in terms of use, but also in its production process.

Unlike the earthen cement produced by time travelers in some novels, the cement used on the surface of this circle of city walls almost meets the standards of industrial products.

Cement with particle diameters greater than 01 mm will have a very low activity, and excessive cement particles will also lead to a decrease in the strength of the concrete it is configured. It can be seen from the naked eye that the amount of cement that meets the fineness required to build a city wall cannot be smashed by manpower alone.

The industrial production of cement can be simply summarized as "two mills and one burn", but below these four words is a complete set of pyramid bodies composed of disciplines such as materials, mechanics, and chemistry.

Charles couldn't imagine how the dwarves made so much qualified cement in a world where the technical tree of the steam engine was deliberately suppressed and what kind of technical strength and reserves did the dwarves who could make them - or forge holy lands - possess.

Without complaining about the two lines of the city wall that were more than one person tall, "Freeze with care, a century-old commitment", "If you want to buy, please contact the sales department of Room 4, 1st Floor, Building 6, Forging Temple Office Area", Charles and Harkala, who turned into a curious baby, walked into the depths of the work area to visit.

The houses in the work area are rows of brick-concrete houses, with huge iron doors all around them, with workshop names and trademarks hanging on them, as well as signs that agree to visit or refuse to visit.

On the outside of the house is a circle of flower beds that do not affect entry and exit, and rows of common flowers and plants are planted inside.

Coupled with the slogans such as "Go to work happily, go home safely" and "Safety is at your feet, safety is in your hands, safety is with happiness, safety creates wealth safely" painted on the exterior wall of the factory, Charles felt that he was in the factory area of ​​the 1980s.

Large customers from all over the world wandered between workshops and negotiated with the workshop owners on large-scale purchases of various goods.

Due to the limited production here, the major customers representing the kingdoms have basically completed the production here, so that the nearby Avalon City is not far away, and there is still some supply of various weapons.

This is also a common practice in various kingdoms, to prevent weapons from spreading too much among the people.

Charles and Harkala visited several workshops. The knowledgeable workshop owners knew that they were not here to buy, but they were all customers. If they didn't go there, there would be specialist shopping guides to introduce their products to them.

In a workshop that produces plate armor, a shopping guide is introducing a dagger to Charles.

"The most distinctive product of forging the holy land is nothing more than stainless steel weapons. It is very important to make a good weapon. From the original to the forging, you have no link to neglect. The last level is to rekindle. Just our dagger. We will return to the fire for two hours at low temperature to improve its toughness and wear resistance. How much effort will it take to spend in it."

Then the shopping guide gently tapped the dagger's blade with a small steel hammer, making a sharp and crisp sound.

"Does it sound good?" asked the shopping guide.

Charles nodded.

"It sounds good to have good steel." said the shopping guide.

"Retail?" Charles asked.

"Of course," said the shopping guide. "We can also provide customization services for scabbards and grips."

So Charles bought six daggers, and after leaving his palm data, he left the approximate data of Hongye and Diana, and then held a picture album of the appearance of the scabbard and chose the scabbard with Harkara.

Soon, a group of people came to the workshop, with dwarfs with long beards and humans led by a white-haired old man.

The white-haired old man saw Charles sitting aside and studied the scabbard and hurried over.

"Are you Charles McGarden?" asked the old man.

Charles hurriedly stood up, "Yes, sir."

The old man stretched out his hand and touched Charles' hair, saying, "I am Archel Elbach of Shield Bridge Academy, your grandfather's senior brother. I passed by your place a few days ago, and Aunt St. Angel told me about your affairs. I have seen the mask that Aunt St. Angel gave you before."

Charles hurriedly greeted: "Hello, Professor Elbach."

Then he asked, "Master, do you know Professor Remus Wolf?"

"Tsk..." Professor Elbach smacked his lips disdainfully, "That ignorant old guy couldn't help Lao Hammer solve the problem. He slipped away after hearing that I was here."

The bearded elderly dwarf who came over with Professor Elbach also came over. After carefully looking up and down, Charles, who was a little taller than him, he stretched out his casserole-like palm and patted Charles' shoulder a few times.

Fortunately, Charles was ready and stabilized his body, and was not slapped on the ground by the other party.

When the dwarf saw that Charles was not photographed, he nodded with satisfaction, "You are Tom's grandson, I am Locke Bryant, have your grandfather talked to me about you?"

Charles shook his head. He had never heard his grandfather say about his dwarf friend.

"That's right." Bryant said proudly, "because I've beaten your grandpa before!"

At this time, Elbach was shattering the situation, "That's because he has poor alcohol content and cannot drink Tom, so he beat Tom while he was drunk."

Charles was on the side with a black line. Grandpa’s life when he was young was so colorful.

After the greetings, Bryant said to Charles: "We are going to solve some problems here today. Are you interested in listening?"

Charles naturally would not miss such a good opportunity to watch the fun, so he nodded and agreed quickly.
