Chapter 340

There was silence in the study.

Looking at Sean in deep thought, a smile appeared on Heston's dignified face. He knew that Sean had seen something deeper through his superficial interests.

"If you don't understand, just look at this thing."

A tap on the desktop, a shadow emerged, and a top secret document appeared in Heston's hand.

He took the document, opened it and looked through it carefully. Sean frowned.

The steam association has appeared for a short time. Its first official appearance was in 1518. It was jointly established by some scholars with research in steam science. It is an academic organization headquartered in the free Federation. Up to now, it has only been six years, but its power has developed rapidly and has been found in many countries, including the free Federation, the bald eagle Kingdom and other powerful countries.

Of course, as an academic organization, the steam association can develop to such a scale in just a few years, mainly because of its unique code of conduct. First, it maintains absolute neutrality and never interferes in the internal affairs of local forces at any time. Second, money opens the way. Every steam association will import technology, Or support or cooperate to bring huge benefits to the local authorities in exchange for their support, such as helping to build railways, such as cooperating in the management of automobile factories, etc.

"There are many countries behind the steam association?"

Put down the information in his hand and looked at Heston. Sean asked.

According to the data, the steam association seems to give up interests in exchange for the support of other forces, but their own knowledge is the greatest wealth. Under normal circumstances, the steam association has been divided up. The most important thing is that the current steam association seems to span multiple countries, but there are several important nodes in this process, For example, the free Federation, such as the bald eagle Kingdom, all unfolds around these nodes.

"Yes, including the present Sirte. Of course, this only refers to the attitude of the royal family. The current attitude of other nobles is relatively vague. This time, the steam association came to our Montel family to open a gap from us."

Facing Sean's inquiry, with a smile, Heston gave a positive answer.

"Around 1520, the Kingdom developed the mysterious steam engine or magic steam engine, didn't it?"

At this time, Sean asked another question.

"Yes, but so far for us, this mysterious steam engine still exists only on paper. The kingdom is highly confidential about it. It seems that there are still some problems."

Looking at Sean, Heston restrained his smile.

Hearing this, Sean knew it, because according to intelligence, it was only after 1520 that the steam association appeared in the kingdom of Sirte.

"Is it to seal the gods?"

The words were low, and Sean gave his own answer.

Giving up a lot of interests and providing a lot of technical support, from this point of view, the steam association is a purely academic organization dedicated to the dissemination of steam science, but the problem is that a purely academic organization can not develop so fast, let alone obtain the support of multiple countries, because it is not in line with the interests of those countries, Allowing them to give up the blockade of steam science and spread it on a large scale in the old world means that there are greater interests behind it.

Silent, looking at his eldest son, Heston knew that Sean was not only really grown up, but also a qualified wizard.

"Yes, it's Fengshen."

At this point, Heston sighed, as if he were feeling something.

"The advent of the steam engine has made some people see the possibility of changing the world. As a new power, the steam engine has great potential both in people's livelihood and military. Under such circumstances, the steam association was born."

"Giving up the huge benefits at present in exchange for the rolling up of the steam wave in the old world is what the steam association has to do, because if you want to seal the God with steam, you must let steam lead an era. Only in this way can you condense the conceptual theocracy of steam. After inventing the mysterious or magic steam engine, suthilt also has the invitation to join this God sealing game After all, compared with the ordinary steam engine, the magic steam engine still has many advantages. It can be regarded as a new milestone in the history of steam engine development, and naturally has the qualification to compete for the power of steam God. "

Compared with Sean, Heston knows much more about the inside story.

"But now the steam wave has just rolled up. It's just wishful thinking to condense steam theocracy. If you want to go to that step, all countries can only work together to make the cake bigger and strive to turn the current era into a steam era as soon as possible."

Hearing this, all the pictures in Sean's heart became clear.

"That is to say, now in the kingdom of Sirte, the Royal bansain is determined to promote the steam engine, while other real aristocrats oppose it?"

Thinking of the question Heston first asked him, Sean found the most crucial place.

"Well, it can be said that the attitudes of other aristocrats towards the steam engine are vague and unclear, but they absolutely do not support it, because from the perspective of us aristocrats, once someone in the royal family succeeds in canonization, the balance between the aristocracy and the royal family will be broken, which is difficult for us to accept."

Facing Sean, Heston naturally has nothing to hide.

"Promise the conditions of the steam association. Since it involves divination, it can't be stopped."

Hearing this, Sean gave the answer.

In fact, after the recovery of the two evil tides, the balance between the nobility and the royal family has tilted. The most important thing is that once the nobility of Sirte are determined to resist the promotion of steam engine and force the bansain royal family to a corner, it may not attract the interference of other forces. After all, this matter is related to the gods and involves more than one Sirte.

"Really? I think so, too."

Hearing Sean's answer, Heston nodded. Obviously, he already had the answer in his heart. Talking about it with Sean was more about taking an examination of Sean, and at the same time, let Sean have a clearer understanding of the general trend of Sirte and the old world.

The steam engine is a good thing. It is only good for the Montel family to promote it. Heston will not have a violent conflict with bansain for such a thing. The most important thing is that, as the owner of the Montel family, Heston knows a lot of secrets. It is not so easy to seal the gods, not to mention that Sirte is only a latecomer in this matter, How easy is it to surpass those in front?

"You can learn about the steam association if you are interested, but the oak maze is about to open. You need to pay attention to that all kinds of messy things have come out over the years."

At this point, there was a faint chill on Heston's face.
