After hearing Jiang Xiaotan's order, Duke Ma Xin was shocked.

"Kay...Kay...His Excellency Kain, the residents of Rotum are innocent. It is me who made the stupid decision. The Knights of the Guards carried out this matter. If you can calm your anger and not hurt the civilians, we are willing to be killed."

Deputy Head of the Green: "?"

Although he was full of questions and didn't understand why he wanted to die with the lord, he saw that the lord had jumped off his horse and half knelt on the ground, so he had to lie down together.

Jiang Xiaotan Bi glanced at the two of them, and then said, "When we are looking for partners, we hope that the other party can be honest and don't like those snobs who are cheap and act good."

"Sorry, Your Excellency Kain, although our actions have caused your displeasure, you must also understand that Rotum is not as powerful as Constantine and cannot resist Lomulus."

"I know that all countries have their own rules of survival. There are indeed many countries who are good at dancing, swaying among the surrounding countries and getting along with each other. But do you know? Once there is a conflict between countries, the first ones who are unlucky are those who refuse to stand in the side and do not feel capable of standing in the middle. You must know that sometimes a diplomacy seems to be good at both sides, but in the long run, it actually means that both sides are not pleased. Thinking that both sides will not offend each other and take their needs, they will actually offend both sides."

Masin was a little ashamed when he heard this, and said, "Then you say, how can a country like Rotum survive?"

"It's actually very simple, stick to principles and reasonable demands."

“Aren’t these what we do?”

"The timing is wrong. If you have to participate in the trade route at the beginning, that is a reasonable demand, but you dare not participate at the beginning. Now you find that we can make high profits from the trade route and want to get a share of the pie. You also use the despicable method of seizing goods. Think from the perspective of others. If you encounter such a country and want to be an ally, will you feel comfortable?"

Ma Xin was speechless, but he couldn't blame him entirely for this matter. Rotum's entrusted officials to plan major events and cherish their lives, and forget their lives when they see small profits. This is the culprit of the chaos.

Jiang Xiao said that he had not yet realized it, and said, "In fact, no matter which country insists on protecting its core interests, it will win universal respect. On the contrary, the kind of tolerance that sacrifices the core interests of the country, without principle, or actively paying will inevitably be contempt and contempt, and even bite. Just imagine, if you really seize the goods because you are worried that there will be contraband in the goods that will harm the people of Rotum, what are our faces and reasons for interfering in this matter? But now according to your statement, what are your goals for you to make small profits, and you take away the interests from us and make good friends with our hostile countries? What is this? Can Constantine be a kid who can be easily fetched?"

This shocked Maxin. He knew that Romnia was also a small country, but he did not expect that Kein, who was also born in a small place, could have such a great power thinking.

How could he guess that the other party was actually born in a great country that had been passed down for thousands of years and created an extremely brilliant civilization.

Ma Xin lowered his body, and this time he was convinced: "Thank you, Your Excellency Kain for your guidance, please give us a chance to correct our mistakes, formally sign a trade contract with your country, and become a military alliance."

He could feel that with such talents to help Baldwin, Constantine would surely rise to a new force against the increasingly declining Lomulus Holy See.

Baldwin, who witnessed the whole process, could only sigh silently.

Kain opened his mouth so much that he really fooled the little duke.

Using the words "adhering to principles and adhering to reasonable demands", Ma Xin cheated him and gave up his principles and was willing to become an alliance similar to a vassal.

In this way, the matter was resolved successfully, and Baldwin stayed in Rotum and signed a formal covenant with Masin. Jiang Xiaotan escorted the caravan and the goods back to Constantine.

A certain devil's scientific plan and the research and development of key components of gunboat thrusters were also carried out.

With the help of mechanics and metallurgical craftsmen of the Zhuye Empire, this work was unprecedentedly efficient.

A few days later, Jiang Xiaotan asked the craftsmen to install a weird machine and invited Baldwin, who had just signed the covenant and returned from Rotum, to watch.

"What is this?" Baldwin asked curiously, pulling the blades on the large machine that cleverly twisted in the same direction.

"propeller."

"Paddles? Is this for paddling?"

“You can paddle or blow and blow dry.”

Jiang Xiaotan came to the back of the big machine and held a copper rod in each hand.

"Master, step back a little, that one turns quickly, and the chocolate almost rolls in from behind during the last trial."

Although Jiang Xiao used the word "injured", in fact, if he hadn't grabbed the chocolate in time, the little lion scorpion beast would have been broken into meat sauce by the propeller.

After everyone kept a safe distance from the propeller, Jiang Xiaotan activated the lightning strike magic.

Electricity is transmitted through copper rods to the coil wrapped around the magnet rotor, and the electromagnetic field formed makes the rotor rotate rapidly, driving the propeller to rotate at high speed.

The strong wind pressure made Baldwin, who was standing behind the propeller, almost breathless.

"What is this? Is it a magic weapon that transforms Thunder magic into a wind magic?"

Jiang Xiaotan stopped casting spell: "So that's it."

"It's not just Wind Magic, the thing made of glass next to me just now has lighted up? Did Thunder Magic also convert into light magic at the same time?" Chris, with sharp eyes, pointed to a glass indicator light on the engine and said.

It was the simplest carbon wire glass lamp, which was the original version of the incandescent lamp invented by Edison.

In fact, Jiang Xiaotan knew that "thunder magic" can not only be converted into "wind" and "light". It can also be converted into "magnetic energy" and "heat energy", and even transmit information at a very long distance.

He let go of the copper rod and led everyone to another machine.

"The internal structure of this machine is similar to the one just now, but the function is reversed. Chris, you can shake the handle quickly. Master, put your hands between the two copper rods and try."

The two followed Jiang Xiaokan's request and walked to their respective positions.

As Chris quickly turned the handle, an arc of light suddenly passed between the copper rods. Baldwin was in pain and widened his eyes and said, "What?! This is Thunder Magic!"

"Chris learned Thunder Magic?!"

The hunters talked in surprise, and Chris himself was shocked.

"It can be said that this is a magic weapon that allows anyone to release thunder magic." Jiang laughed and said.

That day, hunters rushed forward and swayed the handle of the primary generator and were excited to watch the lightning they "made".

They all believe that the era when everyone can become a magician is coming.
