Chapter 367: Big news

This is another revolution in airship technology
The Royal Mage Association has improved the magic transportation pipeline and power furnace, so that the magic conversion rate and utilization rate have been greatly improved.
We have found a variety of new materials that can greatly reduce the cost of the airship
Oh my God, Kurkut, you haven’t said the above sentence, after all, the news that the airship can be mass produced is really amazing.
Looking at the text in the newspaper, Karent took a sip of the black tea on the table, the birds outside the window tweeted, and the afternoon sun lay on the table, bringing a touch of warmth to the cool spring breeze.
As a Viscount of the Kurkut Empire, Karent thought that sitting in the window in the afternoon and looking at the green grass and blooming flowers in the garden, drinking afternoon tea was the most relaxing thing for him.
After a busy morning, I need to take a good rest in the afternoon. This is what Calent insists on.
Especially after the advent of this new type of paper, a thing called newspaper appeared in every country.
I heard that this kind of thing had already appeared in the period of the Arcane Empire, but the newspaper was parchment at that time. Even if it was the wealth of the Arcanists, it could not bear the loss of wasting these parchments, so Each community can only subscribe to one newspaper, and after reading it, those parchments still need to be recycled.
I have to say that it is too much trouble, or the newspaper of this type is better.
If you encounter news that you like very much, you can cut out that part, and if you are done reading it, you can discard it without any waste or pollution.
Although the whole newspaper reported a piece of news from top to bottom, Karent was very interested when he read it.
In this era, there are few sources that allow ordinary people to obtain information. Even nobles such as Karent, in addition to books, can only obtain new information by talking to others.
This efficiency is too slow, and most of the information obtained is likely to be repeated. Although everyone may have their own unique views on something, if they need to talk to others all day long It’s too boring to get new information through chat, and it’s very inefficient.
If you want to get more information, taverns and hotels are a good place. Whether it is true or not, the adventurers and businessmen there can speak a lot, but it is impossible for nobles like Karent to go to that kind of place. of.
In the past, if Karent wanted to know anything new, he needed to talk to the nobles and wealthy businessmen. This was really too much trouble.
Now that this kind of newspaper is out, even if you are sitting at home, you can wait for the new information to come to your door. I have to say that it is too convenient.
The compact text is pieced together into a piece of news. The layout is not very confusing, but the spacing between them is not very precise. The ink still remains on the paper, even a layman can see that this newspaper is a hand. It was copied, or rather, written by master apprentices using copying.
Although the mage apprentices can follow their mentors and get help from the mentors, the help is not without cost. After they become full-time masters, they need to pay back those costs.
Good master apprentices can repay these loans by helping the tutors, but more master apprentices do not have the opportunity, they need to repay the loans through other jobs.
A newspaper is very expensive for civilians, because this is a copy of the master apprentice's spells, and knowledge is valuable, but there are only a few differences.
The Kurkut Empire uses gold coins from Latinia, and silver coins are minted, named top hats, or silver top hats, and the exchange rate with Latinia is one to eleven, while private coins are not allowed for copper coins. Avoid, so the exchange rate with silver coins is basically maintained at one to twelve.
The price of a newspaper is a silver coin, that is to say, except for nobles and wealthy merchants, basically not many people can buy newspapers, and few people will buy newspapers.
Fortunately, like the newspapers of the Arcane Empire, this Norman weekly was only issued once a week, and it cost up to four silver coins a month. For nobles, this price is not too high.
Even the aristocratic nobles will bite their teeth to subscribe to a newspaper, because in the Norman capital, reading newspapers has become a trend, a trend popular in high society.
Even if you don't read the newspaper, you may be excluded from the party and dance party because you can't keep up with others.
Karent sat by the window, carefully reading every word in the newspaper with the afternoon sunlight, and tasted the taste.
Although the writing of many of the news is not good, at least compared to the writing of the opera writer he often watches, the writing of the contributor is not good, but it is enough.
When an opera is placed in front of the audience, it has been carefully modified by the author, and the words and sentences have revealed a carefully sculpted taste. The birth of a script is often about six months to a year away from the idea.
In comparison, the news in the newspaper is good enough.
"Airship"
Karent put down the newspaper and looked out the window. It had been three days since the airship named Sheffield flew into the sky.
In these three days, the airship named after the royal surname has been hovering above the capital, and the newspapers of the past few weeks reported the birth of the airship.
To be honest, looking at the airship, Karent felt a heartfelt pride rising from the bottom of his heart.
That's the pride of their empire
Tuk tuk
Karent was leaning against the window to admire the heroic posture of the airship conquering the sky, but the door was knocked.
He frowned, because he had instructed that if there was nothing urgent, no one would bother him for teatime~EbookFREE.me~After adjusting his sitting position, Karent calmly said, "Come in Right."
"master"
Karent's housekeeper pushed the door and walked in, put a newspaper on Karent's table, and then walked back two steps respectfully and stood in front of Karent.
"Well, this is" Karent pointed to the new newspaper, and looked at his steward in doubt.
"Master, this is a supplement." The butler said respectfully. "This was just sent, because you subscribed to the Norman Daily, so the messenger delivered this newspaper for you."
After listening to the butler's explanation, Karent looked at the two newspapers on the table and fell into contemplation.
Both copies were sent today. He knew what the supplement was, but he did not understand why even the newspaper had supplements.
After thinking for a moment, Karent picked up the newspaper that had just arrived, and he decided to take a look at what was going on first.
This newspaper definitely needs to collect money. Although Karent subscribed to the newspaper, he didn't want to spend money in vain.
"The Civil War of the Kingdom of Koror ends and Krylov III sits firmly on the throne"
Karent underestimated the phrase "What's so good about this?"
Then he went on to read it again, and read out the remaining half of the news
"The discoverer of the new type of paper, the servant leader Serena, the wind of mourning, successfully recreated the magic furnace"
Karent blinked, then took a closer look, "Successfully reproduced the magic furnace"
He was a little puzzled, as if he had heard the word somewhere, but he couldn't remember it clearly.
"Hi" knocked on the forehead, Karent's eyes wandered in the room, recalling the memory of the word.
Then he saw the window, the airship outside the window
"Magic Furnace" groaned in his mouth, Karent suddenly widened his eyes, clapped the table, and exclaimed "Magic Furnace"
