Chapter 446: Brass and steam engine

Gregory Carlton, the Minister of Empire Manufacturing of the Ogden Empire, took his cane and walked down from the carriage. He turned back to see the driver taking off his hat to himself, and the young minister was slightly sullen.
The white smoke above the distant factory quickly merged into the pale sky. Since being forced by the wind to expose the'steam engine' and the'factory', their emperor ordered the expansion of the factory and the scale of production, which was originally only a trial operation The factory immediately began to be involved in production, which caught them off guard.
But at the same time, this is not necessarily a good thing-especially for these'new nobles'.
A spit out of his mouth, the left hand with white gloves pulled out a pocket watch protected by a silver hunting shell from his arms, glancing at the time, Minister Gregory walked to the brass gate not far away with a cane .
Four rows of rivets were nailed to the gate, and when they saw these rivets that looked like ornaments, Gregory could not help but humming, to express his inner dissatisfaction.
The heavy snow covered the trees on both sides of the road last night, but the road in front of me was spotless.
When Gregory approached the gate, a guard greeted him at the gate: "Are you Mr. Gregory Carlton?"
Holding a blank sheet of paper in the guard's hands, Gregory turned his head to look at the guard's paper and then pursed his lips when he saw the paper in his hand.
"Yes." Gregory nodded and raised his hand to adjust the monocle. "I'm Gregory Carlton."
The guard lowered his head and glanced at the portrait on the paper, then nodded to confirm, and waved to the gatekeeper behind him.
"May you have a good mood today." After raising his hand to salute, the guard turned to face the road behind Gregory.
Gregory looked back, and the door in front of him was slowly opening, which made him sneer.
Just to greet him, even open the front door? Needless to say, this is definitely not the madman's approach.
Before the door was fully opened, Gregory lifted his foot impatiently and walked into the large building complex with signs hanging beside it.
Twelve miles from Moro, adjacent to the factory area, the corresponding department in the empire is also the most mysterious department except the intelligence system.
Prior to this, Gregorian had asked the Imperial Research Department to help make a vehicle, and now they have made it, but their minister only notified Gregorian, so naturally Gregorian stepped into this one.' Among the rivals' realm.
The cold wind outside the brass door was biting, but behind the door, the temperature made Gregory frown.
The headquarters of the Imperial Research Department was equipped with two giant element pools, but they used those precious resources to keep warm, which had to make Gregory frown.
"Hey, isn't this our Mr. Carlton?"
On the way to the office building, Gregory saw a man in front of him, someone who could make him uncomfortable.
"Yo yo, this warm place is still wearing a coat!" The man in front of Gregory raised his eyebrows and raised his lips. "Mr. Carlton, don't you feel hot?"
The man who appeared in front of Gregory was wearing a dark yellow open chest robe, wearing a vest and shorts. It was not so much as a sloppy edge, but rather a sloppy, because the robe should be white.
The minister of the Imperial Research Department, Calvin George, put his hands in the pockets of his robe and watched Gregorian, still dressed in a coat, wondering.
"Mr. George, the imperial grants let you build the elemental pool not for you to do this!" Gregory frowned, earnestly reminding.
Calvin George shrugged and didn't care: "It doesn't matter if it's left unused, the magic will also escape. I'm just calling it the best, understand?"
Gregory was unsmiling, Calvin was let down, Gregory grew up in a traditional knight family, but Calvin was a mage, and this was the biggest contradiction between them.
"What's the matter?" Gregory decided to avoid this topic. Although he would talk about this problem with the annoying person in front of him every time, but this person was so indifferent every time, even his emperor also treated this kind of behavior. Indifferent, so Gregory didn't bother to spend time standing here to debate with this person-at that time, it might as well go back and think about what their imperial manufacturing department should do next.
Calvin laughed twice and clapped his hands. As the prospects of their eyes changed, they appeared in a wide square.
The high surrounding walls can block the sight of prying eyes, and this is one of the largest test sites in the Imperial Research Department.
After being carried by Calvin, Gregory felt dizzy. Fortunately, he stood firm in time and supported his body with his cane, otherwise he would be joked by Calvin again.
Even after going through it a few times, Gregory was still not used to it. He not only had to endure dizziness in his head, but also had to hold back his stomach.
"Look, that's what I've known the most so far~"
Calvin stood beside Gregory, opened his hands, and introduced to him: "Steam, steam, locomotive, and car!"
After Gregory got used to it, he looked at the'monster' in the testing ground.
"Because the steam engine is too big and too heavy, I have to make the car so big because of last resort." Calvin laughed and gestured with his hands in front of him. "You know, the six wheels are not suitable for turning, but With four wheels, it wouldn’t be made larger, and it wouldn’t be able to support the weight of the steam engine, so you see, although the car looks large, it’s actually...not optimistic."
Only when it comes to ‘Ming Research’ will Calvin look more serious.
Looking at the behemoth in the test field, he couldn't help shaking his head: "Although the direction is good, the volume of the car can't be compressed at all without the addition of magic, and the consumption of the steam engine is too large, which is not practical at all."
"There are earth-carrying dragons and giant six turtles, and there are war horses, flying dragons, and griffins. But if they are used to carry people, they will consume too much."
Although Calvin affirmed Gregory's creativity, because he also said before, that is his ``most powerful insight so far'', but he is not very optimistic about the prospect of ``steam locomotive''.
Gregory didn't talk about it~EbookFREE.me~ He quietly looked at the huge steam locomotive in the test field.
The diameter of the wheel should be six feet, but this huge wheel is still much smaller than the body.
Gregory picked up the data set aside, and saw that the body was 15 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 4 feet high. It looked like a vehicle made for giants.
A steam engine that is larger than one wheel is placed behind the car. In order to place the steam engine, there are only four seats left in the front seat, because there are many systems and components to control the car.
The bottom of the car is only one foot away from the ground. This is a dangerous distance. It is easy to hit rocks. And the front of the car is too long, making it difficult for the driver to see the road ahead.
However, these can be improved!
"...How about power?" Gregory suddenly asked when Calvin complained.
"Motivation..." Calvin grinned his teeth and took a breath. "Momentum is okay. Although it is not very flexible, it is at least quite fast."
"Put armor on the outside of the car, and make the wheels smaller. Don't put the wheels on both sides of the car. Improve the bearings. The wheels are also widened. Then put the wheels under the car."
Gregory put forward suggestions for improvement, and the eyes behind the monocle looked calmly at Calvin: "Can it be done?"
Scratching his messy head, Calvin objected dejectedly: "It's okay, but it doesn't make much sense..."
"I improved the steam engine to make the car smaller."
After throwing away a flirty sentence, Gregory turned and left.
Because there is nothing here that can make him feel expected.
