Struggle in the Steam Age

As the transport ship carrying the new currency entered the port, the priests of the Fortune Church soon held a sacrificial ceremony on the ship. Then those new currencies were sent to the vault where the main body was successfully constructed only a few hours ago under the 24-hour shift of the rats.

It is said that the construction of the main part has been completed because accessory components such as steam machinery used in the vault lift have not been installed yet.

Therefore, the boxes containing the currency today were the result of Lawrence summoning a bunch of monster phantoms and letting them go through the temporary hand-cranked elevator as coolies.

Because the old bank built with wooden boards and rammed earth has just been demolished, and the new bank is still being built, the work of exchanging work points for the new Star Hekron can only be carried out in some newly erected grass sheds. Fortunately, when the work points were issued before, enough financial talents had been accumulated, so the whole process can be regarded as orderly.

Of course, there is another important reason why the order is so good is that most people keep their work-point coupons in their previous bank accounts by way of bookkeeping.

Those currencies are automatically converted to the new crown. They only need to redeem the work-point vouchers that they used to spend before.

In addition to humans, tauren and rat people also exchanged a lot of new currencies. Even the newly joined Roka fish people exchanged a lot of currency. However, unlike ordinary people, the Loka murloc took out something similar to a plastic bag and put the currency in after receiving the currency. Obviously, this kind of transparent thing is waterproof.

"What is this?" Lawrence, who was observing the currency exchange situation after seeing Lorca doing this, quickly asked a few Lorca murlocs, and then asked in their language. "It's the thing you use to hold money. I think this kind of container seems to be waterproof."

"This is a plastic box. It is made of a seaweed extract that we call algin." After seeing Lawrence, these Loka murlocs looked very excited. It was obvious that they recognized this man who brought them to the whole family. The savior rescued from the catastrophe of genocide. As a result, it took Lawrence several minutes to calm them down and answer his own questions.

"Alginate?" After hearing this word, Lawrence frowned and thought about it, and then took a closer look at the two pockets that the two Rokayus handed to him.

The feel of this pocket is very strange, between a soft plastic bag and a hard plastic box, and it is somewhat similar to those plastic tablecloths that Lawrence saw in his previous life.

"Yes. This is algin, but I only know that this is a certain kind of algae found after entering the deep sea before one of our compatriots is manufactured after human processing, mainly used to make some kind of container for Keep things that are not suitable for keeping in a humid environment. You know, we live in an environment full of salt water."

Having said that, the seemingly older Roka murloc shook his head helplessly. "But to be honest, before we came to this island and became your leader, we never had much land-based things worth putting in this container."

"Until I came to the island, I obtained iron tools for the first time here, and also a container that can store these metal tools."

"These are what I should do. After all, now that you are my leaders, naturally you should be able to get the same materials as other leaders."

Listening to the compliments of the Lorca fishes to him, Lawrence smiled embarrassedly, and then turned the question back to the original direction. "By the way, is it difficult to extract and process your alginate?"

"It shouldn't be difficult. After all, this thing is sold very cheaply among us. It is used to hold the various metal tools that are sent to us." The two Lorka fish men looked at the younger one and said. "But we don't know the specifics, we only know that this was sold to us by a murloc called cyanobacteria."

When Lawrence showed that he wanted to see the murloc, the murloc soon walked up with a group of people accompanied by his servants. Obviously he was also exchanging currency here today, so after Lawrence indicated that he wanted to find him, he was quickly found and sent to the room where Lawrence was.

After seeing this Lorca murloc called the cyanobacteria, Lawrence discovered that this should be a female Lorca murloc. And judging from the various delicate objects she hung on her body, the cloak made of seaweed of different colors and some dyed fibers previously exchanged from humans, this Lorca murloc should be an ingenious man. exist.

In addition to this Lorca murloc, there were five or six Lorca murlocs who were also women who went upstairs with her. In addition, a young man in a white robe also walked up.

If Lawrence remembers correctly, he should be a mid-level researcher at the Institute of Medicine, who came by boat when Lawrence came to this island.

"It's nice to meet you, Mr. Miller." Lawrence suddenly recognized the identity of this young researcher with his extraordinary memory after awakening from his blood. If I remember correctly, he is the descendant of a certain retainer in the family. He came to the island out of a noble tradition of loyalty just after graduating from medical school.

Of course, this kind of tradition is nothing more than tradition. Lawrence has a lot to do if he wants his subordinates to be truly committed. Fortunately, the development of the island is booming, and it can be seen that the future on the island is very bright, and Lawrence himself can be regarded as knowing people and being good. Therefore, those followers are basically willing to stay on the island at ease.

"I'm also very happy to meet you, Lord Lord." Miller bowed to Lawrence and said, then pointed to the women and women, "By the way, what do you do with these murloc ladies? Just after I heard that Caiwei brought us up, the attendant who came up said it seemed to be related to the alginate pockets before."

"Yes, it is indeed related to algin." Lawrence nodded and said, "I think these things seem to be waterproof and can be made into various shapes. So I think these things should be of great use, so I thought Get someone to ask what these things are all about."

"Oh, it turned out to be like this!" After hearing what Lawrence said, the researcher named Miller nodded and said with an embarrassed expression. "In fact, this is our previous experimental product, but from a certain point of view, it failed~www.ltnovel.com~ so we tried our best to think of some ways to use this kind of thing to try to make money back."

The reason why Miller did this is related to the rules of the island institute. According to the rules, researchers of different levels can apply for research funds of different levels for their own research in addition to completing the assigned mandatory tasks. However, if a certain research is obviously losing money, the next time you want to apply, unless you can convince the review team, otherwise the research funding will inevitably be sent down.

This is why Miller insists on hiring these murlocs to sell his pockets, because he hopes to recoup the cost and keep his loss rate lower than the prescribed ratio. Otherwise, if he wants to test next time, he will definitely not be able to get enough test funds from the review team.

"In fact, I think this system is quite good, and it can give everyone a chance to choose." Miller said after explaining why he wanted these hired Roka murlocs to promote products. "At least in my opinion, the institution of the institute here is much more friendly to us young people than those of the imperial institute."

"That's good, that's good." After hearing Miller say so, Lawrence showed a smile on his face. The rules of the institute were formulated by him, several scholars and Nora after discussing the information of the two worlds. Now it seems that these rules have indeed played a very good effect.
