Chapter 267: You might as well sell me the excess iron.

On the parchment, there is a combination of "rail", "mine cart", "pulley system" and other integrated transportation systems.

Of course, from the perspective of modern generations, this thing is very simple. It is supplemented by a track on the ground, a small mining cart is put on the track, and then a rope is hung on it. As soon as the people outside the mine pull the rope, the small mining cart will be pulled all the way along the tracks from the depths of the mine to the top of the mine.

It can be said that it is a very basic transportation system.

However, in this day and age, it surprised both the old blacksmith and the old carpenter.

"ThisYou want to fill the whole mine with this kind of thing called rails? The blacksmith teacher held the parchment with a confused look on his face. With his ironmaking experience, he could only look at it with his eyes and know that it takes a lot of iron to make this kind of thing called rails."

He said curiously, "Godfather, how much iron does it take to fill the mine with the tracks? It is clear that the purpose of opening a mine is to dig iron, but it takes so much iron to make the rails. Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?"

Robb smiled, "No! It's not putting the cart before the horse. The purpose of using this iron is to dig out more iron. "

The blacksmith teacher understands that he doesnt understand

It was the worse blacksmith who once did Robbs tap water system that had blind confidence in Robb. He helped him and said, "teacher! Since Godfather said that with this can dig out more iron, then this will be able to dig out more iron, what Godfather says is absolute."

The old blacksmith shrugged.

Robb said with a smile, "the follow-up effect will be seen after its complete. You can also see that this project cannot be accomplished by one or two or three blacksmiths alone. To build rails that fill the entire mine, this project is huge. Each section of the tracks must be guaranteed to be exactly the same and need to be standardized, so they need to be molded, spliced, and have rail changing mechanisms. You need to make pulleys and small iron cart that can be stuck onto the tracks."

He continued, "This requires a large number of blacksmiths to work together, and the blacksmith class at Westwind Technical School is the most suitable group of blacksmiths for this project. You will take this as a subject and you will lead the students to do it together. Of course, I will also pay a pay. What do you think?"

The old blacksmith nodded. "since it is the request of Godfather, of course I have no problem with it. This project looks really grand and can exercise the students' abilities in all aspects. I think if my students can finish this project, they can already graduate."

Robb turned to the carpenter teacher next to him and said with a smile, "railroad ties, the wooden arms for installing the pulley block, and so on, will depend on you and your students."

Xuelu:

At this point, the crystal ball on the edge of the pool lit up.

The Queen will call when she has nothing to do, sometimes talk about state affairs, sometimes talk about sweets. But in short, Robb is used to her calls.

He held out a hand and gently stroked the crystal ball for three times so the call got through.

Her Majesty's beautiful face appeared in the crystal ball, and a second later, she said strangely, "Sorry to disturb your bath."

"Just hang up if you feel embarrassed." Robb complained, "while talking about disturbing, you are staring at the crystal ball expressionless. You are obviously not sincere."

The queen did not reply and pretended not to see Xuelu next to Robb, and calmly said, "I heard that you have dug a new mine to fill with rails

"Yo!" Robb laughed, "you are really well-informed. It seems that your spies are mixed up in Westwind Town.

The Queen's expression remained the same, "in the dark chapel next to your chapel, it is full of my people. There is no saying that there are no spies. If I told you that two little dark nuns betrayed you, would you kill them? You wont do it even if I tell you to."

Robb:

Her Majesty said, "besides, as the queen of West Gran, dont I need to send spies to inquire about the news of my own territory?"

Alright, alright. Youre right! Robb said with a smile, "what you've heard is true. I'm really planning a new mine with rails."

The Queen seemed to pout, but when Robb looked carefully, she found that she had a straight face and wasnt pouting at all. Was it his own illusion?

He only heard her Majesty say a little unhappily, "if you have extra iron, you might as well make weapons and sell them to me."
