Only by building, accumulating and expanding can we maximize efficiency.

Of course, this is only Xia Duo's current estimate. As the construction period progresses, maybe he has some new ideas, and maybe he will increase the expenditure again.

After all, the first floating city was built for the purpose of experimentation, and it was definitely impossible to come up with a perfect one all at once.

In addition, there are different ways to have more money and less money.

Obviously, if all the places where standard mithril can be used can be replaced with high-quality mithril, it will undoubtedly make the performance of the floating city better.

According to Xia Duo's current estimate, if it is standard mithril, it will need at least about 100,000 pounds, but if it is high-quality mithril, the quantity may be less, but the price may be several times higher.

Although Xia Duo has now mastered the technology of refining high-quality mithril, he has never thought of using all high-quality mithril for construction.

He only intends to use high-quality mithril at some key nodes with high-frequency flow of energy, thereby reducing the rate of occurrence of elemental transmutation reactions.

…

Soon, Shado visited this three-furnace workshop accompanied by Lord Lei Sen. The finished product produced by this workshop was not standard mithril, but [Silver·Mithril] agglomerates.

Although Lord Lei Sen didn't say anything about the subsequent refining process, Xardo was also the one who bought the Nishite Mithril refining technology from Sevington. He knew very well that that step could be carried out in the Mage's Tower. Safer.

In fact, even ordinary mithril mines, Shado can be refined in the mage tower.

He obtained [Elemental Extraction] from the projection plane, which can be used to extract high-grade mithril, and naturally he can also extract standard mithril, but using this method to extract mithril, the lower the purity of the sample, the greater the intermediate loss.

If it is directly extracted from the ore, it is likely to make ends meet.

Instead, it would be more cost-effective to only use it to refine high-quality mithril. Of course, if it is only used for emergencies, it is still very good.

…

After leaving the smelting workshop, Shado and Lei Sen led them back to the Mage Tower, where Shado formally made an offer to purchase standard mithril.

"I don't know how much Lord Xado is going to buy?"

"About 200,000 pounds!"

"so much?!"

Lord Lei Sen's eyes widened immediately. The 500-pound monthly production he and Lord Shado said just now had reservations, but he definitely wouldn't be able to easily take such a large order.

If it is only based on the existing production capacity, this is simply to cover all the production in the next two decades!

Lord Lei Sen seemed to agree, but still shook his head firmly, "Lord Shado, it's not that I don't want to accept such an order, but I really can't do anything. Even if all the mithril mines in Lei Sen lead are fully mined, it may not be the case. It can smelt 200,000 pounds of standard mithril. If the amount is smaller, Lei Sen collar still has some accumulation, but if it is so much—"

"Lord Lei Sen, don't rush to refuse, of course, this amount is not for you to take out at one time, even if you can take it out at one time, I can't afford the 200,000 pounds of standard mithril, you can treat him as a Long term order."

Of course, the 200,000-pound standard mithril was reported at once, not Xia Duo's casual remarks, but the result after careful consideration.

Lei Sen has the potential to become a big mithril smelting factory. As a future big consumer of mithril, Xia Duo naturally needs to cultivate upstream resource suppliers that are pro-his side.

Providing stable orders is undoubtedly a way of cultivation.

Before he came, he originally thought that it would be about ten thousand or twenty thousand, and the rest could be handed over to the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, or other territories that produced standard mithril.

But after coming to Lei Sen Ling, he noticed that Lei Sen Ling had already started to purchase foreign mithril mines and opened the road of resource integration. Since this is the case, it is better to deepen cooperation.

After all, Shado and the Cliff Grand Arcanist behind the Leysen Territory are considered deadly friendships, and it is basically certain that Cliff, who is a believer of the Lord of Glory, will at least not become his enemy in the future.

Of course, if Shado becomes the enemy of the Lord of Radiance, then Cliff may be on his opposite.

Of course, this may be the case. After all, during the Midsummer Festival last year, he also argued with the Lord of Radiance, which led to the withdrawal of Leiden's divine grace.

The biggest ideological difference between Shado and the Glory Lord is whether the spirit of legislation is needed, and Shado's point of view is of course.

And the Lord of Glory, although he didn't say whether he wanted it or not, but judging from the teachings approved by the other party, he obviously didn't think it was necessary.

However, this difference of ideas does not involve the core essence of the Lord of Radiance, and can even be understood as a positive extension of the Lord of Radiance's idea.

As long as the opponent is not heartless, it is basically unlikely to be an enemy.

Judging from the fact that the Holy Light of the Codex sculpture on the territory square is still there, at least it has not developed to that stage yet.

As for the future, we can only take one step at a time, and the hostility is not likely to be large anyway.

And now, Shado can also rest assured to cooperate with Lord Leysen in Cliff's camp.

…

For such a long-term order, there is no doubt that Lord Lei Sen would not refuse it. He produced so much mithril, and he would definitely not be able to use it just for his own use. If he didn't sell it, would he still have to lay eggs?

The only problem now is the purchase price.

However, before discussing the price, Xia Duo took out a measuring instrument that uses Daxia's standard weights and measures. Of course, this instrument is unencrypted, in order to facilitate other mages to learn related measurement spells and achieve the purpose of promotion.

"Lord Leysen, if possible, I would like our transactions to be calculated using the Tower of Time's measurement standards."

"The measurement standard of the Tower of Time?"

Lord Lei Sen glanced at the magic item that Shado put on the table. He lost the ability to cast spells, and the magic vision could not continue to exist, but in the mage tower, he could still use the mage tower to make some simple judgments. of.

He could see that the magic item should be a measuring instrument, which was no problem, but he still had doubts about whether to accept the standard of the Tower of Time.

After all, if the Cliff camp doesn't use the Radiance Standard, it's really a bit awkward.

Xia Duo saw the embarrassment of Lord Lei Sen, but he didn't insist on it, but put away the measuring instrument, "If Lord Lei Sen is in trouble, then I don't mention it."

In fact, he believed that the high degree of order and logic of the weights and measures of the Great Summer Standard would be more likely to be favored by the Lord of Glory. He planned to let Leiden "offer" it on Midsummer Festival this year.

The Lord of Radiance may not care about the spirit of legislation, but he cares about the law itself. There is no doubt that weights and measures are law and order, and they are obviously superior to the glorious standard.

Shado speculates that even if the Lord of Radiance does not issue oracles to change the weights and measures, at least the priests will be able to perceive the tacit consent.

In this way, it may not be difficult for Lei Sen to accept it.

At that time, it may be that those organizations, forces, and factions that are not the Glory Lord of Chongxin will choose to resist the Daxia standard for various reasons.

Gains and losses are sometimes reversed.
