The smell of disinfectant water was wafting in a clean house, and the servant kept bringing out the dirty water stained red with blood, and then exchanged for new clean water. It took the doctor from Suhl three hours to help Caesar treat the wound. However, Caesar's injury is still not optimistic. The reason is that after the injury was not handled properly, it has been delayed for a long time, which has caused the skin infection near the wound.
The doctor treated his necrotic muscle and gave him antibiotics. But whether we can survive, we have to survive tonight. However, Caesar's physique is very good, and the source of energy in the body has never disappeared. Although they are consumed in the fight against the virus, they still tenaciously protect the important organs and tissues in Caesar's body. This made the doctor still relatively optimistic about Caesar's condition. After Allen sent the doctor away, he asked Father Miró to take care of Caesar.
Ellen will not think about Caesar for the time being, as long as he wakes up, he will naturally know the reason. As some daily necessities were delivered one after another, the house gradually had a breath of life. Alan stood by the window, watching Lucy and Vera leave together to visit the market in Suhl City. Adele played the true qualities of the eldest lady and directed the soldiers to send things into the house.
He smiled slightly, everyone has already begun to integrate into the world of this planet. As long as Suer City is controlled in his hands, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to dig out their identity. After that is the expansion and accumulation of strength. Only if the strength is strong enough, will there be more resources and manpower to achieve the goal of re-establishing contact with the earth. Seeing the afterglow of the sunset that dyed the city golden, Allen was confident to do it all.
Before the sun set completely, Edward returned. He changed his suit, which was the dress for the dinner party. At the same time, he also brought back a fitted dress for Allen. After Allen put it on, he sat in the carriage assigned by Baron Ethan and walked through the hustle and bustle of the streets to the City Lord's Mansion.
The huge restaurant in the city lord’s mansion is lit only in the area around the dining area. The wall lamps on both sides and the candle holders hanging vertically on the ceiling make the food on the table plated with a layer of golden color. It's just that there is not much food on the table, and it can even be described as plain. There is no problem as a daily meal, but it is a bit stingy when it can be used to entertain guests.
One minute after Ellen and the two arrived, Ethan did not come in a hurry. Along the way, he kept discussing with several secretaries and arranged some work affairs. Immediately after seeing Alan, he waved his hand to let the secretaries leave, and then sat on the main seat and said: "I'm sorry, two. Now I know that the city lord has too much work. There are too many things to deal with. So I have kept you waiting."
"It doesn't matter. The busier the Baron, the happier the residents of this city. I am truly honored to be a part of the residents of Sur City." Allen smiled, and his every action was in accordance with etiquette, even with Measured by the strictest set of aristocratic etiquette, he is absolutely impeccable.
You know, he didn't have the series of noble etiquette training courses in Babylon.
Ethan is totally different from before, and his lean face looks radiant as if it will glow. He laughed and said, "Master Ellen is far younger than I thought."
Allen smiled slightly and said: "A lot of people say this, including some of my enemies. But in the end, they all regretted despising me because of their youth."
Ethan nodded: "Master Ellen does have an extraordinary skill."
I said again: "Look, my time is a bit tight and I have to deal with some papers later, so we will talk about it while eating. Oh, because I advocate frugality, the dishes in the kitchen tonight are a bit simple Now. Master Ellen, see if it's all right, or else, I ask the chef to cook some again?"
"No, that's great." Allen cut a small slice of bread elegantly with a knife and put it in his mouth for chewing. He always smiled, making people feel like spring breeze.
"I'm a pragmatic person, so I won't say anything extra." Ethan wiped out the food in front of him, and said: "I invite you to dinner tonight. There are two main things. Let me talk about the first. One thing, according to our contract, my daughter Nilu needs to marry Master Ellen. I will never regret this, so I want to see when Master Ellen takes care of the marriage?"
Before coming here, Edward had reminded him that Ethan should discuss his marriage with Nilu. Allen had long been determined. At this time, seeing Ethan directly said it, he said: "I intend to deal with this matter like this."
He looked at Edward and said, "This gentleman must be familiar with Lord Baron. Yes, Mr. Edward is my best assistant. And he mentioned to me more than once his admiration for Miss Nilu, if the Baron If there is no objection, I want to promote a good thing between the two of them."
Ethan glanced at Edward unexpectedly. It was naturally like this kind of political marriage to control Nilu in his own hands. But Allen let Edward replace him. From beginning to end, Ethan only regarded Edward as Allen's agent. But what Allen said tonight made him look at Edward one more level. He nodded and said: "There is an item in the contract that you can specify the marriage partner. If this is the decision of Master Allen...Of course."
Edward stood up and bowed to Ethan: "I will treat Miss Nilu well."
So the matter was settled, and the wedding was decided on the last Sunday of the month.
"The second thing is the position of the chairman of the chamber of commerce." Ethan said calmly: "It is not difficult to recommend Master Allen to be the chairman of the chamber of commerce. It is just a little hard to avoid. After all, Master Allen is right Many people are too unfamiliar, and sitting in this position rashly may attract criticism. So you see, is it more appropriate for me to announce this decision after Master Ellen makes some achievements?"
"On this point, Sir Ethan, please don't worry." Edward said: "Soon, we will give the Baron an appropriate time."
Ethan looked at Alan and smiled: "Then I will wait and see."
The next day, Edward asked Ethan for some blacksmiths in the city. So all the blacksmiths in Sur city gathered in Allen's house, and each of them got a drawing on which was a metal component that they had never seen before. Detailed dimensions and detailed requirements are marked on each drawing, and Allen gave them a week. If completed within the time limit as specified in the drawing, they will receive additional rewards.
This greatly stimulated the blacksmiths' mobility. Although they don't know what these things are for, everyone still uses the fastest speed to turn the things on the drawings into real objects. Beginning on Friday, finished products were delivered to Allen one after another. On Sunday night, after the last components were delivered, Lucy began to install them.
Vera is beside, drawing something else on the paper with a paintbrush. That is a kind of machine, strictly speaking, it is an automatic spinning machine. As for the one that Lucy is installing, it is a simple semi-automatic machine. These are all from Vera's hands. Allen stood behind her and looked at the automatic spinning machine on the drawing. He couldn't help sighing: "Fortunately, you know the design drawings of these things, otherwise I really don't know how to reform the status quo of the handicraft industry in Suhl City."
"When I read about the history of human industry, I turned over some materials by the way and wrote it down." Vera said lightly.
Alan couldn't help asking: "Do you still read the history of war, right?"
Vera raised her head, her little face calmly said: "I haven't seen the design of the tank or something."
Allen laughed dryly, and Lucy over there clapped her hands: "It's done."
This evening, the world's first semi-automatic textile machine was quietly born in the small town on the border of Suhl City. It also requires manual operation, but also requires constant practice and adjustment. But its appearance means that the textile industry in Suhl has officially developed from handwork to mechanization.
In the next few days, several textile workshop owners, including Sean, secretly visited this machine and saw with their own eyes how it replaced the backward manual weaving of cotton thread into fabric. Although the fabric produced is not detailed and tight in texture and the pattern is extremely limited, its work efficiency is far from manual. It can be imagined that when this machine is perfected, it will bring about a revolution in the textile industry.
In fact, its influence will also spread to other fields. After all, it allows people to see the productivity of machinery that is far from human comparable.
After these workshop owners left, through their respective relationships, they found the blacksmith who made the parts for Allen and them that day. Unfortunately, although these blacksmiths have drawings in their hands, even if someone collects all the components, they don't know how to install them. So in this age when there is no patent concept, Allen told them what is a trade secret.
Soon, Allen introduced this semi-automatic textile machine to the public and invited Sir Ethan to name it. Ethan called it "Crossis", a **** known to the heavens for weaving ornate clothes in local legends.
This month is destined to be a turbulent month in Suhl City, and it is also a harvest season.
After the Crosis Textile Machine was born, Alan, a mysterious businessman, generously dedicated the machine to the local workshop free of charge, and was willing to publish its detailed information, so as to help the city of Suhl in an all-round way. Embark on the stage of mechanized production. When making this important decision, the young businessman said: “Now, I will share the secrets and hard work of the family with you. The purpose is to make our lives in Sur City better. You can imagine Soon, the textiles of Suhl City will be famous throughout the empire. At that time, others will come here, and they will desperately dig out our secrets. Once others have control over Crosis, then everyone will have no money to make. So easy."
"For us, please be sure to keep the secret of Crosis."
So on this day, all the cotton spinners in the city signed their names on the Crosis Co-Oath Treaty, willing to keep the secret of this textile machine for the benefit of Sur City and their own. In the treaty signatory, the first name is Allen. This name represents the first mark he left in this world! r1058
