Time kept passing by, and several days passed without realizing it. Lu En was very busy during this period, and the auction was also held as scheduled.

Dragon blood, dragon scales, and many materials were auctioned off, earning Lu En 4,276 Star Maple gold coins. The dragon blood was bought by a big shot who heard the news, and Lu En bought it from the surrounding people.

I learned from the mouth that the man's name was Uli, a well-known brewing master and pharmacy expert. He developed many wines and brewing seasonings, including eleven types of wine, three extremely potent clear spirits, and one

Fruit wine with a light floral aroma, five beers with various flavors, a black fermented seasoning with the aroma of beans, and five brewing spices. I heard that he has the skill of Alchemy 5.

These products made his brewing workshop and winery highly respected by the upper class. Even the king praised the wine he brewed and paid high prices to buy it. Therefore, he was not only a master of alchemy and brewing, but also a chain of wineries and breweries.

The operator of the workshop.

He invested all the money he earned into his own alchemy laboratory and spent huge sums of money to purchase experimental materials. In this way, he collected many rare liquids, and this time the dragon's blood was no exception.

The person who purchased the dragon scale armor was a knight lord from another city named Aidenpu Liangyin. He was a great nobleman of the Star Maple Kingdom. His strength was very weak, probably only level 1. Even level 1

He was only pushed forward by resources, but because he inherited the family's title and wealth, he usually likes vanity and likes to buy all kinds of precious things for collection. Although he can't use dragon scale armor himself, he can hang it in the castle.

It was used to show off, and he paid a very high price. This piece of dragon scale armor cost at least 50% more, but it seemed that he liked it very much, and he put it on directly after taking the photo.

To be honest, this knight lord looks really good. He is handsome, tall, and wearing dragon scale armor. He really has the illusion that he is a powerful combat professional, especially since he has long blond hair and is honest.

Speaking of which, Lu En had to admit that this man was indeed very deceptive, and his whole body looked like a pile of money. From boots to armor to rings, long swords, and even the cloak behind his back, they were all magic items. Lu En

En suspects that even his underwear is a magic item.

But all in all, it was a bumper harvest, and the money was enough to build the factory I wanted.

The workshops that are popular among humans nowadays are based on traditional craftsmanship practices. For example, the training process of a typical blacksmith is quite cumbersome.

First, he needs to become an apprentice from a young age. During this period, he must absolutely obey the master's orders and work for him. During the apprenticeship period, there is usually no salary, but the master takes care of food and housing. The apprentice will stay with the master for many years, just like

As a follower, he learned the skills bit by bit. Finally, it took him about twenty years to learn the skills of his master, and he became a young man close to thirty years old. Finally, he passed an exam and needed to make a weapon or armor independently.

After passing the inspection by the blacksmith association or the master himself, he will be awarded the qualification of a craftsman. He can practice independently, become a master in the workshop, and be qualified to accept his own apprentices.

This method can cultivate excellent craftsmen, and each apprentice must undergo long-term training. Excellent craftsmen will also become professionals, forging tools or weapons with supernatural abilities, and may even create magic equipment.

But there are also disadvantages, that is, the efficiency is extremely low. According to the information Lu En investigated in order to find suitable craftsmen, there are currently only more than 90 master masons in Larante, only five free men, and the rest are subordinate to

There are only twenty people in the United Chamber of Commerce or the Hall of Glory who are professionals, and all of these twenty people are in the hands of the Hall of Glory and the United Chamber of Commerce.

Even if these masters work at full strength, it will be difficult for them to produce a large number of products in a short period of time. Moreover, they master different techniques. Each workshop has its own unique skills, and its disciples must strictly abide by them.

Even if they defend it with their lives, those who violate it will be abandoned by the craftsmen of the entire association. This has also led to serious differentiation of their products. Almost every product made is different and highly personal, abandoning the idea of ​​rapid production.

Ability, choose quality manufacturing.

This was Lu En's opportunity to establish a foothold. What he wanted to build was not an ordinary factory, but an assembly line factory. For this reason, he did a lot of research and finally decided what the workshop would do.

It's very simple, he wants to make hammers and pliers, and make iron.

It is that hammer that is needed in all aspects, whether it is a mason, a carpenter, or anything else.

Lu En has thought about this.

The main reason is because the army is about to be stationed in Lalante, and a lot of business will come. Therefore, both the United Chamber of Commerce and the Hall of Glow will seize this opportunity to get closer to the Holy Alliance Army and make a lot of money from it.

Pen.

The Holy Alliance, which had just looted the Demon King's City from the Monster Forest and slaughtered countless monsters, was now extremely rich. Larante would definitely convert all these materials into wealth and cash them into military pay.

Among them, the most profitable are two things. One is the sale of monster materials, and the other is the maintenance of military equipment. For an army of hundreds of thousands, the equipment that needs to be recast and repaired is by no means a small amount, and is limited to the craftsman system.

Productivity, and the maintenance materials that Lalante City can supply in a short period of time are really limited. In this case, the United Chamber of Commerce and the Hall of Glow will definitely need to purchase supplies from other places.

So, instead of spending a lot of money and shipping costs to transport it to other cities to Larante, why not buy it here in Luen?

If you want to seize this opportunity, you must understand other people's needs, other people's desires, and other people's motivations.

No one else, including the local city hall of Lalante, could quickly provide so many tools and fine iron that could be used to make armor.

You must know that the iron used to cast weapons and armor is not ordinary iron, but needs to be refined. This world is called refined iron. After Lu En observed it, he concluded that it is actually steel, and it is not very good quality steel.

.

Even this kind of steel requires ordinary craftsmen to spend a long time refining it to obtain it. Professional blacksmiths can use some supernatural power to quickly make steel, but the number of professionals is rare. There are only a few dozen professionals in the entire Lalante.

For blacksmiths, there will be a temporary shortage of tools and steel in the future, because the hammers used to repair armor must also be made of steel, otherwise they will wear out quickly and will break within a short time of repair.

Therefore, only Lu En can quickly mass-produce steel and manufacture hammers and other repair tools in large quantities.

Because - he has a blast furnace.
