When the thermal performance of the steam engine is difficult to greatly improve, the higher the strength of the material used, the higher the output power of the steam engine under the same volume.

Therefore, the improvement of steam engine technology has been in the development of new materials. It is heat-resistant, wear-resistant and high-pressure-resistant, which determines which steam engine is more advanced.

The metal smelting technology in Daliang's hands can not only increase the power of the steam engine, but also be used in large quantities in national defense and civil industry. Larger and stronger ships and warships, large bridges and railways all require high-quality metal.

For Marquis Whitehead, the meaning of this slender metal pole far exceeds the magic potential activation potion and the "Return to Magic" drink. Without the fourth generation of magic potential activation potion, the empire has its own third generation potion, and without the "Return to Magic" drink Empire can rely on its own conventional military strength. It is a little difficult, but it is not impossible to overcome...

Steel is the foundation of a country and the basis of ruling.

Without high-performance steel, the army will be weaker than others, and will be invaded... and will be beaten.

If this metal rod can really reach the high strength as Young Master Liang said, then the entire empire's smelting factory can be eliminated.

The atmosphere of the whole dinner suddenly became heavy, and Miss Anne stood up and said, "I'll go around and take a look..."

Of course, Miss Anne also knew the meaning behind this metal pole. She wanted to strengthen the security of the Governor's Office and keep all non-confidants away from this room.

The Marquis digs and says to Anne: "The list of all people who can get in touch with this dinner is in the drawer of my study. Do you go and see if there are people who need to pay attention to? There is no leakage about the content of our conversation with Young Master Liang this time."

"It's...father."

After Anne left the restaurant, the Marquis placed the metal pole on the table in front of her and asked Daliang with a serious expression: "What exchange should I use for the manufacturing process of this metal?"

Daliang had just taken a sip of sweet soup, and after hearing the Marquis' inquiry, he wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, "The manufacturing process of this metal is not a product. I want to build a steel factory in Saroyang to specialize in producing special steels like this metal.

Now there is a lack of factory buildings, funds and equipment.”

Marquis Whitehead asked: "A metal like this... do you have many kinds?"

Daliang replied: "That metal rod is indeed very hard, but in some environments it is too hard, and the steel needs excellent toughness, or more wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant.

I have these metals, but there is a lack of factories to produce them.”

This metal rod alone shocked Marquis Whitehead, but he never expected that Young Master Liang had many similar metal smelting technologies in his hands. This technology must not be obtained by other countries, and must be controlled by the empire.

The Marquis could no longer maintain the etiquette that the nobles should have. He said in the most serious tone: "Master Liang... You should know what these technologies you have in your hands mean to the Florminke Empire. The Empire is willing to pay any price for the many special metal smelting techniques in your hands.

You can obtain hereditary titles and have fiefs. Your descendants can enjoy the privileges given to the nobles by the empire…”

Daliang was very rude to interrupt Marquis Whitehead and still refused to contribute his smelting technology to the Florminck Empire.

"Marquis...I am a merchant, and these smelting techniques are golden roosters that can constantly lay golden eggs. I am not very interested in the title of the Florminke Empire, and I just want to build my steel plant as soon as possible...and make money.

Smelting technology is not a product, I only accept investment.”

These smelting techniques in Daliang's hands came from the dwarf craftsmen of the Big Tomb. In the game world, the dwarf mastered the best smelting techniques, while the dwarf craftsmen of Obsidian City are the best among the best. The ordinary weapons they make can have magical attributes.

The dwarves in the Big Tomb are all from Obsidian City.

The dwarves were once a subordinate race of elves. In order to get rid of the elves' rule, the Obsidian City dwarves developed rune technology. Later, the dwarves joined the Five Color Flag Alliance. With the participation of the fairy dragon clan, the dwarves once again improved the rune technology.

The Obsidian City dwarf used rune technology to smelting steel, and through the combination of different rune words, he invented magic word steel of different natures.

Unlike the enchantment of alchemy. Magic Word Steel itself does not have magical attributes. It is the alloy smelted through rune technology and adds other media. The cost is not much different from ordinary steel, but the rune word contained in it gives them various properties.

This is a technology exclusive to the Big Grave, and Daliang cannot share it with outsiders.

But how could the Marquis of Whitehead accept this technology that relates to the foundation of the empire in the hands of an uncontrolled man?

"Mr. Liang, I know that there is a very powerful force behind you, which is what makes me unable to trust you completely. I don't know your purpose, so I will naturally be vigilant about you.

The smelting technology in your hands is more important to the Empire than the fourth generation of magic potential activation potion. Therefore, the Empire needs to get it anyway...

I hope you can consider the attitude of the Florminck Empire clearly.

We can jointly build a steel factory, funds, factories, equipment, workers, management... You don't have to worry about anything, the Empire is responsible for everything in the steel factory. Give you ten percent of the shares... The Empire Emperor will generously give you the title of earl and give you the most fertile land.

Your family will become the most noble family in the empire.

Don't reject me... I know that your subordinates are very strong, with level 13, and perhaps level 14. But they absolutely cannot compete with the Empire.

I hope you don’t make bad decisions.”

The Marquis took out the power of his imperial ministers and the smelting technology in Daliang's hands... He was bound to win. Although the Black Fire Company had many powerful soldiers, the Empire also had 14th and 13th levels of force, and millions of troops. He did not think that a secret organization had the strength to compete with the country.

With these special steels, the empire can conquer the entire world.

Feeling the threat from the Marquis, Daliang said relaxedly: "Marquis Whitehead, I hope you don't make wrong decisions! I can let you see the metal pole, and I can take it back, and it can prevent anyone from peeking at its smelting method.

I will say it again last: My smelting technology is not a product.

The Whitehead family is willing to invest, so I will give you 0.5% of the shares. You only pay dividends and do not participate in any decisions of the steel mill.

If you agree, we will continue to talk.

If you don't agree, I'll look for someone else."
