Release that Witch Chapter 253: Hot air balloon trade

"Her Royal Highness, I wanted to ask you when I entered the door," Hogg revealed a look that finally calmed down, and he was drunk by a pot of ice water in a wooden barrel. "This picture in the hall Painting ... I am afraid that ordinary people can draw it, no matter the degree of realism or the perspective of overlooking the earth from the air. "He paused, lowering his voice," This is the work of witch? "

Roland looked at Margery, who nodded his head. "Please be assured, Your Highness, Hogg is an old friend I have known for many years. He is also not malicious to witch."

"You guessed it, it was drawn by witch." Roland took a hot air balloon two days ago to visit nearby on the beach, and wanted to save this magnificent scene, plus the castle club living room decoration is simple There is no painting, he simply let Soraya turn the stone wall behind the main seat into a huge mural. With the artistic background wall, the lobby style instantly improved by several grades.

"I knew it," Hogg sighed. "Although they are promoted as the minions of Devil, those strange abilities are really enviable. Ordinary people ca n’t fly into the air like them and draw another one. Such an exquisite mural. "

"You are only right in the first half of the sentence," Roland shook his head. "Everyone can fly without relying on magic power, even higher than the eagle and faster than the Swift."

"You are so humorous," Hogg laughed, "unless we have more wings, we will become lighter than birds."

Margery is startled, "Really?"

"Of course," the prince laughed, "I can show it to you."

Showing merchants about their various inventions is also an effective way to enhance relations and expand trade channels. This is true from mugs to liquor. It is another thing to sell or not. Anyway, the caravan will stay in small town for several days. The normal business negotiation process should be to eat, drink, play, and finally sign. And Anna is also very interested in hot air balloon travel, which just allows her to take a break from her busy work and take a rest.

Yaowang completed the inflation soon. This time, the Roland sailed to the witch, which was not able to take a hot air balloon last time. Lucia also timidly asked if he could take his sister to take a look, and he agreed.

When the balloon slowly lifted the crowd, Margery covered her mouth in surprise, and Hogg clutched the edge of the gondola tightly, wondering whether it was excited or scared. Bell was too short to see the scenery outside the basket at all. Lucia had to pick her up, ride on her shoulder, approach the basket carefully, and told her not to move. As a navigator and rescuer, Lightning has been orbiting a hot air balloon, showing a grimace at the bell from time to time.

In this way, the hot air balloon once again swayed along the south coastline to complete the aerial sightseeing tour.

...

After returning to the castle, Hogg's legs were still trembling, and he stuttered, "I never thought it would be so terrible to look down in the sky. I feel like I will fall at any time."

"Just fly a few more times," Roland laughed. "People who leave their feet on the ground for the first time will have this illusion, just like people who have never gone to sea will vomit on a bumpy sea boat. It ’s awkward. "

"You're right," Margery exclaimed. "The scenery you see today is incredible. Looking from the air to the edge of the sea, it looks like a blue arc."

"But Your Royal Highness, I don't seem to be wrong," Hogg drank cold liquor, "Ordinary people did fly to the sky, but this is still the credit of witch. Without them, this big guy should be flying Can't get up. "

"No, my old friend," said Margery before Roland said, "Did you not find out? Miss Anna is just releasing the flame. I also specifically asked Lightning, and she told me that I only need to go to air bag Heated in the air, Yuanwang will rise to the sky by itself. The flames are not the privilege of witch. Your Highness, am I right? "

It is indeed Fjord Marine Commerce who has established a foothold in Kingdom Capital. Both observation and thinking ability are outstanding. Roland nodded with a smile. "The hot air rises and the cold air sinks. This is why it is called a hot air balloon."

"Is it really just a brazier?" Hogg wondered.

"That won't work, because if you want it to float in the air, you must continue to heat it, and the wood itself is very heavy and ca n’t bring too much. You must use a special method to solve this problem."

"Can you do it?" Margery can't wait to ask.

"Um ... it should be possible," Roland thought for a moment, "it's just a bit of trouble."

"That's great," she answered immediately, "I hope I can buy four or five hot air balloons from you, not too big, just one person."

"Do you want to use it on board?" Hogg asked.

"Yeah, the mast cannot be extended indefinitely, but the hot air balloon can, as long as the rope is tied under the gondola so that it does not drift away with the wind then it will be alright. With the hot air balloon, watchers can find the nearby pirate ship earlier For maritime merchants, besides unpredictable storms and tsunamis, the biggest damage is the pirates in groups.

"But its cost will not be too low," Roland estimated in his heart, "I expect more than a thousand gold royal."

If you do not use witch heating, hot air balloons will have to use gas fuel. The easiest to get is undoubtedly gas. Unfortunately, the Greycastle's coal mine is in the Cold Wind Ridge area, which is too far away from Border Town. According to the current traffic conditions, it is almost impossible to transport it over. Changing to hot air balloon is easier to achieve, but it also needs to solve the problem of the gas storage tank. If it cannot be filled and discharged easily, it will have no practical value.

"How many thousand gold royal balloons?" Margery countered, "If you really make this kind of thing, I can guarantee that all the caravans traveling to and from the fjord want to buy one or two. "

"This time Crescent Moon Bay Caravan didn't come with them, otherwise they will definitely place a large order," Hogg drank the liquor in his hand, "I don't need it. Although the hot air balloon looks very magical, it has no effect on Silver Light City mine Any use. I just hope to get my steam engine as soon as possible. "

The price offered by the other party made Roland overjoyed. Thousands of gold royal were the premium after he increased the estimated price by five times. I did not expect that the other party could readily accept twice the price of steam engine. However, if you think about it, it is likely that the cargo carried by a sea vessel is more than this price, not to mention the entire commercial fleet and the sailors on board. As long as it can avoid the plunder of pirates, this transaction is for sea merchants. Say it's still a good deal.

In addition, thousands of gold royal are not a one-shot deal. Whether it is hydrogen or gas, they are all consumables. After you run out, you must get back small town inflation. This is another extra income ... Of course, if you buy a large number of gas tanks at once , You can consider discounting or giving the number of inflatables. At this point, the 4s shop and two barrels of oil are his role models for learning and imitation.

Roland hesitated for a while, and finally nodded, "So deal." (To be continued., Your support is my greatest motivation.)
