Chapter 230: Marquis Baisuma’s Luck Detector [2/5 Requires Automatic Subscription].
“Lord Marius, if you don’t have any money I don’t know, or the source of the cash, I have to tell you, we’re going to run out of money soon…”
When Marius heard the words of factory finance, his face was slightly frightened. But then he frowned and asked.
“How many people has the factory taken in now?”
“Seventeen thousand three hundred and forty-one people, but our current factory operation only needs less than three thousand people at most… All the materials left in the factory have been consumed, and when we purchased grain in the imperial capital, the price of grain also increased a lot. ”
“It’s more than tripled.”
When the finance man said this, his eyes were red.
Finance itself was just a commoner with a certain degree of knowledge, and he worked here for Marius because the conditions given by Marius were too good, but now he is full of reverence and admiration for Marius.
By this time, the repression of the rebellion by the Confederate States had ended.
The country is relatively stable, but it is also a mess, and in places like the outskirts of Gruborgnidu, you can often see some corpses that can be burned in the future.
In addition to the corpses in one place, this bloody crackdown also caused many families to lose their family pillars and lose their economic resources in 183.
As a result, the Marius factory, which already had too many people gathered, was finally on the verge of collapse.
Marius, on the other hand, knew that all this was the Marquis of Baisuma who was behind the trickery, and a few days ago the other party had personally come here with someone to collect the so-called national labor security fund, which was to make the Marius factory, which was originally quite rich in cash.
Stuck in a desperate situation.
However, Marius was not in a hurry, and he secretly prayed in his heart that John must come with the production line according to the agreed time, otherwise everything would really be finished.
Similarly, Marius had no intention of stopping at all about the reception of these refugees.
Nearly 20,000 people gathered in the factory, and after receiving food and protection, they immediately began to build factories for Marius, as well as houses for people to live in.
Fortunately, John’s side is still quite reliable.
Without the transportation power of the railway, John had to get hundreds of sturdy wagons, and the split production line was transported to the Marius factory.
Such a large convoy, the first time attracted the Marquis of Baisuma, who had been secretly paying attention to the situation here, when he saw the steam engine in the production line, although it was second-hand, but definitely not much wear.
The eyes of the Marquis of Baisuma narrowed.
He swept over John’s body and smiled as he stepped forward.
“Oh, it seems that this is our little Marius’s friend in the Pruik Empire, and I didn’t expect to have such a powerful doorway, textile machines, printing presses, and even high-pressure steam engines…”
John looked coldly and ignored the hypocrisy and greasy guy who was all over his body.
The Marquis de Baisuma was not annoyed, and looked at Marius, who had people unload one machine after another and began to assemble the production line.
“Little Marius, it seems that you are ready to do a great job, so many production lines, even producing more than one commodity, and it will certainly be the largest industrial area in the empire in the future…”
Marius looked at each other.
“Don’t know what happened when the Marquis of Baisuma came to me?” If I remember correctly, the latest batch of security funds, a total of 150,000 gold dollars, I have let people pay all of them, right? ”
“Your Excellency, Lord Marquis, understand, after all….. In the entire Gruborgni Empire, I am the only one who can get the high-pressure steam engine now, right? ”
What the other party was planning, Marius could see when he saw the other party staring at the high-pressure steam engine.
He Marius was not an ordinary man, as the son of the Duke of Penmesi, he himself could still see the newspapers of the Prussian Empire.
Recently, the Prussian Empire and many countries signed a joint venture agreement for the construction of steam-powered ironclads, which definitely put the Marquis of Baisuma, who was responsible for the study of high-pressure steam engines, under a lot of pressure.
Marius’s burning gaze made the smile on Marquis Baisuma’s face somewhat embarrassed.
It was really said by Marius, and at this moment the Marquis of Baisuma had already begun to regret it in his heart.
Originally, it was thought that Marius knew some ordinary forces of the Prussian Empire and could get backward production lines, but it was not impossible.
However, the other side even got a high-pressure steam engine that the Pruuk Empire had forbidden to export to the south. At this point, it was up to the Marquis of Suma to be arrogant.
The above has already given him an ultimatum, if within half a year, there is no high-pressure steam engine to be studied, let alone what a duke.
The title of Marquis is also to be demoted!
“Oh, Young Master Marius is really smart, the previous things were actually misunderstandings, I have a good relationship with your father, seeing that you have gathered so many people at once, I am worried that you can’t control it, and I want to use a way to make you retreat in a difficult way.”
“I didn’t hand over those security funds, as aristocrats, opening factories is to contribute to the alliance, the alliance does not commend it, where is the need to pay what security money… I’ll have someone send you that money tonight. ”
John finally understood why Marius had specifically approached the members of the Celestial Eye Society who had docked with him, informing him that it was best to get a worn-out and obsolete high-pressure steam engine.
It was for this Marquis of Baisuma.
John glanced at the guy, and everywhere he seemed to be transmitting the signal that the other party was a straw bale.
This high-pressure steam engine was the first generation of testing machines that John specifically inquired about and found from the original Steam Engine Research Institute for testing.
Not only is the workmanship rough, but many of the structures are completely different from the steam engines of the Pruuk Empire today.
In addition, it was meant to be an experiment, and when it was first started, it was also quite violent, so that today’s high-pressure steam engine may be able to operate, but the danger factor is already full.
John watched as Marius, threatened with two words, not only did he take out all the benefits of eating. It was also the Marquis of Baisuma who directly decided to find a good supplier of raw materials for Marius.
The other party showed his goodwill so hard, perhaps he could not imagine that the high-pressure steam engine bought at a high price was completely a luck detector.
Marius did not care about this.
Anyway, when selling it to the other party, he even asked the Marquis of Baisuma to personally check and confirm the condition of the high-pressure steam engine, and the damage was also clear to the other party.
The white paper and black characters are also written clearly, and when the time comes, the other party will be unlucky to ascend to heaven. That can only mean that the other party is not good at learning, and there is no talent for studying the steam engine.
