Let me assign new tasks below. First, the number of people in the institute is still too small and needs to continue to expand.

The town has almost been screened. A group of new residents will arrive in two days. I will give you priority to select these people. Buck, be prepared to select.

Yes, Master.

Second, the Engineering Research Institute will then allocate departments to work on related fields full-time, instead of everyone having to do everything now.

First, it is divided into three departments, the drawing design department, the experimental forging department and the mass production department.

The three departments each perform their own duties. Among them, the drawing design department will be temporarily led by Buck, with Pansy and Eden participating. At the same time, you two will also be responsible for the remaining two departments.

At the same time, 50% of the remaining staff will be divided into two departments, and the personnel who are responsible for the external inspection equipment will be withdrawn to participate in research and development after instructing the completion workers.

yes!

After such arrangements were made, Buck's two apprentices were given formal positions.

Third, the next step is to develop supporting equipment for the smelting plant. The design department and forging department will be responsible for the development, while the production department will continue to produce steam engines.

Now the person in charge stays to arrange the detailed tasks, and the others can go out,

After receiving the order, everyone got up and left the house, leaving only Buck, Pansy, and Eden.

I have already prepared the development plan for the new equipment, please take a look.

Gudern said and handed over the prepared plan to the three people. He only gave them the simple equipment development task of finalizing the components for the equipment forging of the smelter.

For example, simple large-scale steel plate pressing, or simple prefabricated parts machines such as steel bars that are urgently needed for mass production.

With the technical knowledge of everyone in the Engineering Academy, it is indeed difficult to independently build a smelting plant without the core. This part can only be designed and forged by him personally.

Of course, for simple tasks, Gudern can just ask people to bring them to him, and there is no need to come in person.

As the three of them briefly browsed through it, they finally saw the real research and development content.

Distillation tower, pump, generator!

This is really what Gooden needs to give to the Engineering Institute.

Looking at the various introductions, the three of them had a look of disbelief on their faces, and they looked at Gudern at the same time.

Chapter 76 The former owner left a letter and the mystery was solved (4000 chapters)

Seeing the surprised expressions on the three people's faces, Gooden explained with a slight smile.

These are just rough plans and it will take some time to complete.

You are now the head of the research institute. You know the future research direction in advance so you can make preparations.

Distillation tower, pump, generator, behind each of these three is a huge system.

For example, the distillation tower is used to prepare various types of gases for refining, such as coal gas or gasoline and other energy sources.

The water pump provides water circulation for the entire Qingyuan Town, and has even been upgraded to various types of motors.

The generator is the core part of changing the entire Qingyuan Town, and every plan will include a large number of sub-projects.

These projects will need someone to maintain them in the future, although he now has the ability to quickly come up with these things.

But it’s impossible for him to handle all the follow-up problems by himself, right?

Therefore, these tedious tasks must be left to the citizens themselves.

The general goal of the research is placed here. In the near future, apart from the component shaping equipment of the smelting plant, there are only two goals that you need to develop.

The first to upgrade an existing steam engine to make it more powerful, and to design a lightweight version of the original that could be easily transported.

Second, the development of a first-generation water pump needs to be completed as soon as possible. Even an experimental version will be fine, and it can be used for pumping water in mines.

Understood, I'll start making arrangements now. Buck also knew that the young master had brought an iron mine from nowhere, but its development had been stranded since ancient times due to water seepage.

As the amount of iron consumed in Qingyuan Town increases, the amount purchased from Jinyuan City is almost exhausted.

And it is not a problem to keep buying, so the development of iron ore must also be put on the agenda.

Well, work hard and try to complete the industrial upgrade before next spring.

Gudern clapped his hands and encouraged everyone.

Then he continued to clarify some plans for everyone.

It was not until evening that Gudern returned to the castle.

Eating a hot meal and taking a hot bath, this little day couldn't be more comfortable.

Although entertainment is extremely scarce in Qingyuan Town, for 'outsiders' like Gudern, many interesting anecdotes can be obtained from local books.

For example, there is a place called the Fire Land on the northernmost side of the desert land, where huge pillars of fire erupt from the ground all year round, and there is also a large amount of flammable black grease around it.

Gudern doesn’t think this is oil? Moreover, according to the introduction in the book, that place has been burning ever since the Third Demon War a thousand years ago.

It has been burned for nearly a thousand years and has not been completely burned. This reserve really makes Gudern's heart beat.

It's a pity that my place is at least two thousand kilometers away from the Land of Flames. With such a long distance, I won't be able to use this thing until trains are popularized in the future.

In addition to these, he is also very interested in the development history of this world. He has been studying here with History of Dawn Continent (Part 1) all day long these days.

Coming out of the bathroom, Gooden quickly wiped off the water stains on his body, and then quickly wrapped himself in a layer of slightly thick velvet pajamas.

The weather in Qingyuan Town can change at any time. A few days ago, it was still a bit stuffy even when I was wearing a slightly longer nightgown.

And now if he doesn't wear this thing, the autumn wind at night will make him shiver.

Back in the study, Gudern casually lit a lighting technique on the ceiling, and the milky white light instantly filled the entire study.

Since acquiring the Lord of Elements, he no longer needs to use mental power to maintain this low-level magic, and can completely switch it on and off at will.

This kind of lighting condition is much better than the previous candle lamp. At least you won't have to pick up the wick again to restore the light when you see half of it.

Sitting back at the desk, Gudern took out the History of Dawn Continent that was buried under many scraps and continued to read.

But before flipping through two pages, a folded white paper fell out of the book.

what is this?

Seeing that there seemed to be something inside the folded white paper, Gooden picked it up and opened it and took a glance.

Crack...

With just this rough sweep, Gooden instantly felt a chill running down his spine, and the history of the continent in his hand fell to the ground.

‘Future Lord Qingyuan, when you see this message, it means that my family and I have encountered misfortune. ’

‘My death must be a conspiracy of the Charleson family. Even if my death is natural, please beware of him. ’

‘I have a hidden compartment in the study. After the second to last row of the third bookcase, tap the stone tile in the upper left corner. There is all the evidence of Charleson’s collusion with Astor. ’

‘The Charleson family secretly colluded with Astor, they have completely betrayed the empire! ’

‘I beg you, Lord Qingyuan, whom I have not met yet, to hand over these evidences to the empire! ’

‘Charlieson, if you find this piece of paper, I curse your family to be completely destroyed in this coup! ’

‘Zeng, Lord Qingyuan, Sehit Kertiya, stayed. ’

From the more than two hundred scrawled words, Gooden could tell that the other party was pressed for time. The former lord must have been in an extremely critical situation at that time.

And the content in it shocked him. The Charleson family actually murdered the previous Lord Qingyuan and wanted to kill him secretly?

Looking back on Charlieson's various actions before, Gooden couldn't help but shudder. His predecessor actually endured this kind of environment for three years. Isn't this too easy?

Then he looked back at the contents of the letter, stood up quickly, and began to search for the secret compartment in the study according to the records on the note.

The third bookcase...the second to last row...

Gudern looked at the cabinets filled with books and roughly pulled out all the books with a magical hand.

Then he reached out and touched the brick wall behind, and sure enough, there was an obvious difference between the upper left corner and other places.

Pressing gently, a slight sound of stones rubbing against each other sounded from the side.

Zi——Zi——

Following the source of the sound, Gooden quickly stepped forward to check.

The stone wall on the side opened a hole due to the force of the mechanism. Looking along the light, it seemed that there was a book and an iron round box inside?

For safety reasons, Gudern did not reach out to retrieve the items in the hidden compartment, but used his magic hand to take them out for him.

And he also put a magic shield in front of himself, just in case.

After careful inspection, he determined that there was no problem, and then he started to open the book and check the contents.

The first half of the book contains records similar to account books, while the following pages contain scrawled notes that appear to be place names.

After looking at it for a long time, Gudern didn't understand what this thing was, and then he focused on the iron round box.

This thing looked ordinary and nothing special, but Gudern sensed a faint trace of magic on its items.

With the Master of Elements entry, he can distinguish the traces left by his magic and those that originally came with the items.

And the trace of thunder magic left on it was definitely not left by him.

After playing with it for a while, Gudern didn't find a place to open it.

Is it possible that this thing is a magic item?

In this world, he has only seen magic items once in an auction house.

If you want to include the staff and magic cloak, then it is a different matter.

Looking at the round box in his hand, Gudern was a little undecided for a moment.

The fact that this thing can be put into the hidden compartment is also an important piece of evidence.

Now it seems that it needs to be activated with thunder element magic, but he has never been exposed to such items and has no idea how to operate them.

If you destroy it by using it incorrectly, you're doomed.

After thinking about it, Gudern directly used his spiritual power to search for Old Joseph's location in the castle.

Then use magic to transmit the message.

If there's something urgent, come to the study immediately.

Old Joseph, who was making arrangements for tomorrow's work, heard a sudden sound beside his ears and stood up quickly.
