Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 420

The genius remembers the address of this site in one second: [] The fastest update! No ads! "Oh my God!"

After seeing the chemists in the Northwest Gulf using all kinds of methods on the way of exploration, Kevin couldn't help but cover his mouth and exclaim.

But in fact, he is quite envious of the academic atmosphere mentioned in the letter.

Although in the Bachelor's Tower of the Gabela Imperial Capital, my vision has been broadened a lot, and I have indeed gained a lot of knowledge. But Kevin feels that the scholars here are still obsessed with "breadth" rather than "depth".

He continued to look down.

"Relying on the increasing number of talents in Weiss College, Lord Greyman spent huge sums of money to establish five major laboratories. The first chemical laboratory was established, followed by the biological laboratory, metallurgy laboratory, geological laboratory, and power laboratory. .”

"You may not know what the latter three are for just looking at the names. I heard from our school teacher that the metallurgical laboratory is to study how to better extract valuable metals or other substances from ores and process them. As far as I understand It should be iron smelting, copper smelting and so on. Hehe, I never imagined that the work of blacksmiths in the past has become a kind of knowledge in a grand manner."

"As for the geological laboratory, the current main task is to study and explore the minerals underground, which was previously the work of those miners."

"As for the power laboratory, it is to study how to better use machinery to replace manpower, such as hydraulic bellows, hydraulic spinning machines and so on. The person in charge is said to be the famous artificer Guy Burns."

Well, these seem to be things that are closely related to people's livelihood.

Wait...metal smelting? Mineral exploration? Is metal in high demand in the Northwest Gulf right now?

Kevin couldn't help frowning, Earl Greyman was not building weapons, and then... launching a war?

He shook his head, the count should not be such a person.

"The lord sent three fleets to the north, west and east respectively. In addition to exploring the new world, they also have a mission - to verify whether the land under our feet is round."

Wow, this is an unprecedented career!

Hey? No, maybe there are predecessors who have done it, but it ended in vain, and there is no record in history.

Kevin continued to read the last paragraph of the letter. This paragraph was about a case that happened not long ago. The lord's court executed a bad-behaved squire and set a ceiling on the interest rate of private lending. For usury and severe punishment.

Good thing! Kevin couldn't help but slapped the table excitedly. As a commoner, he had seen too many cases of being forced by usury to ruin his family.

His grudge against Earl Greiman disappeared temporarily.

Kevin carefully folded these two precious family letters, put them back in an envelope, and put them in a delicate wooden box.

"Hey... If the Earl could extend his 'telegraph' line to Gabela's capital?"

This is just thinking about it, not to mention that Gabela and Aldo are separated by a vast desert, even if the telegraph station is really built here, he can't afford it.

At present, the main function of "telegram" is to transmit military and political information and high-value commercial intelligence.

Maybe I should go back to Northwest Bay after I've learned something? But it's also very good to stay with the teacher. This is what the old man hopes, and when the time comes, he will bring his parents over...

"When~~"

The melodious bell sounded from the direction of the Great Clock Tower of the Imperial Capital, interrupting Kevin's thoughts.

The big clock rang twice in a row, and it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

It's time to visit the teacher.

"Ah, it's Kevin, come in!"

Kevin's teacher—David Aldridge, greeted him warmly. As expected, this old bachelor was discussing something with his senior, Mund Langdon. Recently, the more time they got together to discuss things Is it getting longer, is it an important academic question?

"Kevin, I found a good part-time job for you, which will not only increase your knowledge, but also allow you to earn some living expenses while studying."

The old bachelor was smiling, and he was still waving the cane bestowed by the emperor, which symbolized his status as the great mentor of the scholar's tower.

Seeing the teacher's beaming expression, the slight melancholy in Kevin's heart due to missing his hometown also dissipated.

My own teacher, although in front of outsiders he is always solemn and dignified, looks like a scholar, but in front of his own people he always looks like an old child.

"Really? Thank you teacher."

It would be great to have a part-time job. As Aldrich's incoming student, Aldridge only received ten Aldo coppers from Cage as a symbol, and he always asked Kevin to help copy the books. To provide him with food, clothing, housing and transportation in the imperial capital, he always paid a lot of "hard work" for copying books, which was already close to the salary of a regular copyist in the industry.

"Don't be too busy thanking me first." Aldridge smiled and narrowed his eyes. "There are prerequisites for letting you work part-time - your professional studies must pass my test."

Well, Kevin also felt that the teacher would not let him go so easily.

He said confidently: "Please go ahead and test it."

"Young people, don't be so arrogant!" Aldridge put on a stern look, "Then use the history of the Holy See that I taught you recently as a test."

After a little thought, he quickly came up with a few questions, and then asked Kevin one by one.

Aldridge's instructor's topic was mixed with some unpopular questions, but

This didn't bother Kevin.

Young scholars answer each, with personal insights into some of the controversial history.

"Well... Although I don't quite agree with some of your opinions..."

Mentor Aldridge stroked his gray beard, shook his head and said.

"But it does make sense, well, I declare that you have passed the test."

As soon as the tutor finished speaking, Senior Mond clapped his hands, "Congratulations, Kevin."

"Thank you senior~www.mtlnovel.com~Thank you teacher. So, what is the part-time job you introduced to me?"

Kevin asked expectantly.

"Oh, it's the position of the guardian of the royal document library, how about it? Not bad."

Mentor Aldridge laughed again.

"This! It's great!"

Hearing what the teacher said, Kevin was so happy that he almost jumped up.

Although the main responsibility of the Royal Documents Library is to store various materials of the Gabela royal family, such as genealogy, it is still a large library. The kind that is open to the guardians of the document library—in fact, administrators—is open, while the books in the library in the academic tower have permission requirements for borrowers, and the permission is linked to the internal level of the academic tower.

Being able to obtain this position can not only increase your knowledge, but also get a lot of money, after all, it belongs to the royal family.

Kevin was instantly grateful to Mentor Aldridge.
