Chapter 1293: Let Me Test The Waters

After saying goodnight to Amy and Irina, Mag went to the study room alone, and got some paper and pen to start sketching his design.

If it was calculated based on the speed by foot, the Night Elves would be able to reach Chaos City in two more days. Then, he would have to find them an accommodation and also a complete and ready textile factory.

Scheer had already started manufacturing steam engines in bulk, so it would not be much of a problem for Mag to buy 10 steam engines from her.

The problem at hand was the textile machine. When he was writing his thesis, he did some research on the inventions during the middle ages. Therefore, it was not difficult for him to come up with a design for a textile machine powered by a steam engine. Furthermore, compared to a steam engine, textile machines did not have so many technical requirements to make. It was something Mobai would be able to come up with quickly.

After coming up with the sketch of the textile machine overnight, Mag drew a simple design of the workers’ dormitory on another piece of paper. It was based on the standard university dormitory design, with four people sharing a room. It was to be the dormitory for the Night Elves. Since he had enough space, he could make the rooms bigger. He would look for a dwarves construction team that could work on a larger scale. Two days should be sufficient to get the dormitory built.

“Mother, when are you and Father going to give me a little brother or little sister to play with?” Amy asked as she lay in Irina’s embrace on the large bed and caressed her flat tummy.

“Erm...” Irina was silent for a while. She looked at Amy, and asked, “Do you want a little brother or a little sister?”

“Little sister!” Amy replied without even thinking. After that, she added, “The little sister from the Parmer Family is really cute! She’s so soft and fluffy, it feels good to pinch her.”

Irina looked at Amy’s eyes glistening like stars and smiled. She ran her finger on Amy’s nose bridge, and said, “But I want to give all my love to Little Amy. Just like right now, only holding you in my arms.”

“That’s alright. You can love Amy and I will love the little sister, then the little sister can love Father. That way, we can love each other and be a loving family. Isn’t that great?” Little Amy said with a smile.

“Hmm...” Irina went deep in thought. She wouldn’t be able to give birth to another one alone...

The Demon Islands were located in the center of the Boundless Sea Realm. They got this name because there would always be a layer of gray fog above the group of islands.

The islands were of various sizes, and they were home to the demon race.

The large island nearest to the center was controlled by the abyss demons.

At the bottom of two cliffs that were close to a vertical drop tens of thousands feet high stood a few grand stone temples.

At this moment, in the largest and grandest temple, the leader of the abyss demons, who was as big and large as a ball, was on the main seat. He looked at the leaders of the other races, and loudly said, “This time, the 10 demon races have gathered here to join in an alliance so that we can negotiate with the king of the Roth Empire. If we were to invade and take over the entire continent, which areas would be ours, and which areas would belong to them. Does anyone have any opinions on this matter?”

“A transaction with humans. They are even more scheming than goblins. The flaming tribe would never believe humans,” a flaming demon shouted loudly.

“Exactly. What are humans? All they do is hold a sword and wave some sticks in the air, and they want to have a share? Such an alliance is simply a disgrace,” a large demon agreed angrily.

“Do you dare to say that in front of Alex and Urien?” a vampire mocked after taking a sip of fresh blood.

The large demon was stumped. He looked at the vampire with his face flushed, but he was unable to give him any reply.

The hall quieted down because of that sentence. Everyone had heard the news of Alex killing Borg a couple of days ago. That already showed that he was stronger than an ordinary 10th-tier powerhouse. In addition, Alex also killed Benson, the spatial demon patriarch, jeopardizing the spatial demons’ status amongst the top 10 demon tribes.

As for Krassu and Urien, they left a very deep impression on the demons after they wiped out the ogres.

They had to admit that the humans who the demons had belittled in the past had already evolved into a very strong race after centuries of rapid development and population growth.

“We, the vampires, don’t have a big population to begin with, so we don’t really need land. All of you can have fun fighting for it. The vampires will not take part in any war, and we don’t need any land.” The vampire finished the fresh blood in his cup and stood up. He spread his arms, and a pair of gigantic black wings appeared on his back. In a split second, he turned into a shadow and disappeared from the hall.

“Scaredy-cat. Even if he can fly, he’s just a flying cat,” the demon who had been dissed said sarcastically.

Whoosh!

A half-a-meter-long black steel plate flew in from outside, and landed between that demon’s legs.

That demon stood up and stepped back subconsciously. A loud ripping sound could be heard, and a big hole appeared in his pants. He quickly covered his crotch area awkwardly.

After the vampire left, the leaders of the other tribes also started to hesitate. Not many of them wanted to join the alliance, and the meeting ended on a bad note.

The next day after morning operating hours, Mag went to Mobai’s forge, and asked for his help to make some textile machines.

“Boss Mag, these machines are a little big. If you’re in a rush for them, I can find a few other blacksmiths I know and work on them together so that you can get them after two days,” Mobai told Mag while studying the blueprint.

“Great. But this is a little special, so I need you to keep it an absolute secret. If you’re working with other blacksmiths, I need you to split it into parts.” Mag nodded.

“Mm-hm. I understand. I will split it up for the others to do.” Mobai nodded. Boss Mag had always been full of quirky ideas, so it was only normal for him to be more careful in case someone plagiarized his ideas.

After coming out from Mobai’s forge, Mag went to Buffett Manor to look for Scheer, and he finally met her under the guidance of an assistant.

“Mr. Mag, you want 10 steam engines?” Scheer asked as she put down the reports in her hand.

“Yes. I intend to use the steam engines to build a textile factory.” Mag nodded. He did not intend to hide this.

“Oh? You’ve already thought of how to use the steam engines for business?” Scheer looked at Mag in shock. Her engineers had been researching applications for steam engines other than in locomotives. Although they had some findings, there was still nothing concrete.

“I’m going to test the waters first. I’ve bought a factory in the northern part of the city, but I still don’t know how things will turn out,” Mag said with a smile.

“I see...” Since Mag did not seem willing to divulge further, Scheer smilingly said, “Since you’re going to open a factory, I wonder if I can join in the fun, invest a little capital, and own some shares?”

“The place is still an undeveloped piece of land. Aren’t you afraid that you won’t be able to get your money back?” Mag asked.

“I might be worried if it’s someone else, but I am very assured if you’re the one. Even if I don’t get my money back, I will have no complaints,” Scheer said with a smile.

Mag thought for a while, and said, “Since that’s the case, how about an investment of 10,000,000 copper coins and 10 steam engines for 10% shares?”

“Sure.” Scheer wrote a check, and passed it to Mag with a smile as she said, “I can give you the 10 steam engines tomorrow. Give me an address. I’ll get someone to deliver them.”
