Magic Industry Empire - 426. Chapter 426

When Xu Yi saw the Great Magician Camilla, he couldn’t help laughing.

The current Great Magician Camilla is wearing a set of loose linen uniforms of the new Flying Chamber of Commerce standard, holding two steel plates in his left hand and a magic welding torch in his right, staring at the gap between the two steel plates intently. Moved the magic welding gun little by little.

If he put a protective mask on his face, it would be exactly the same as those welders on earth.

Seeing that all of Camilla’s spirit was concentrated on the steel plate and the magic welding torch, Xu Yi didn’t bother him, just stood at the door and watched his movements carefully.

Compared to the time when the magic welding gun was just developed, the current Camilla Magician is undoubtedly too proficient in welding two steel plates.

Although the magic welding gun he held in his right hand did not move quickly, its speed was very stable, and the magic welding gun didn’t tremble at all.

This alone is enough to compare with those old welders with many years of experience on earth.

After the Great Magician Camilla expertly completed the welding of the two steel plates, Xu Yi took two steps forward and took a look at the probe, and found that there were almost no welding traces at the welding place of the two steel plates. The steel plates seem to be connected by nature, and are originally a whole.

Xu Yi couldn’t help but be surprised. He picked up the welded steel plate, squeezed the two ends, and broke the steel plate with both hands, but the steel plate did not move.

Camilla Grand Mage saw Xu Yi’s movements and he smiled: “Boy, do you think I am still the same as before?”

Xu Yi shook his head. After learning the test of the first successful welding by the Great Magician of Camilla, he placed both ends of the steel plate on two tables, leaving a gap in between, and then picked up another steel plate on the ground and lifted it high. , Smashed it hard.

“Keng–”

A dull loud noise sounded in the research room, and the steel plate bounced off the tabletop, and then fell to the ground, but there was still no looseness.

Xu Yi picked up the steel plate from the ground and carefully observed the welding gap between the two steel plates, and found that there was still no trace of looseness, and could not help but exclaimed.

“This is too strong! Grandpa, how did you do it?”

The great magician Camilla laughed and said with pride: “In fact, I just improved the welding method. I heard you say what welding rod should be used to fill the welding gap and use the melted welding rod to connect the steel plate, so I always wanted to It’s all about how to deal with the problem of filling in the welding rod. But then I thought, since I want to use the melted welding rod to solidify and connect, it is better to just melt the two steel plates themselves and then fuse them together, isn’t it? Much more reliable than using a welding rod?”

Xu Yi was stunned: “Let the steel plate itself melt? This can’t be done, right? The welding rod can melt because the electrode itself is relatively thin, and some combustion aids are added…”

At this point, Xu Yi was suddenly stunned.

He suddenly remembered that when the Great Magician Camilla was doing various welding experiments, the welding rod used did not add any oxidizer at all, because the one developed by the Great Magician Camilla was ridiculed by Xu Yi as ” The earth magic of “Transformers Array” can dissolve metal directly without any other means for assistance.

If this is the case, then Camilla’s idea is undoubtedly quite correct.

Anyway, the steel can be melted easily, so why bother to toss the electrode for welding? Compared with this kind of welding method, which is not particularly reliable, of course, it is more stable to directly dissolve and fuse the two steel plates themselves.

Xu Yi looked at the steel plate in his hand as if it were originally a complete piece of steel, with a trace of emotion in his heart.

After all, he was too deeply influenced by the ideas on the earth, and he always considered problems in the ways and methods on the earth.

In fact, because of the existence of magic on Sainz continent, there are always some things that are not easy to do on earth, but they can be easily solved by magic.

For example, the magic circle developed by the Great Magician Camilla, which can smelt metal even without high temperature, is much easier, simpler and easier to operate than the method that requires high-temperature smelting on earth.

“Let me show you another welding method that I have newly researched.” Camilla Grand Mage suddenly picked up two steel plates again, and lightly tapped his fingers on the sides of the two steel plates.

Xu Yi probably could see that he should have placed a few very tiny magic circles on these two steel plates, but because the magic circles were too small, he couldn’t see exactly what happened.

After a while, the Grand Mage Camilla stopped the movement in his hand, raised two steel plates to signal to Xu Yi, and then pressed the two sides of the arranged magic circle tightly together.

Xu Yi felt a wave of magical power at the joints of the steel plates, and then the Grand Mage Camilla released a hand and saw that the two steel plates were already connected, as if they had been welded.

“How is this welded?” Xu Yi took the steel plate from the hand of the Camilla Grand Mage in wonder, and carefully observed the joint between the two steel plates.

Although the connection between the two steel plates is not the same as the two steel plates welded by the Camilla Magician before, or even without any gaps, the connection is extremely tight and the connection is very high. Even if Xu Yi did it again. The impact test still did not show any signs of explosion.

“It’s very simple. I just arranged several miniature smelting circles on the sides of the two steel plates. Next, I only need to connect the two sides, introduce magic power to activate the magic circle, and the sides of the steel plates will melt, naturally. Let the two steel plates be welded together.”

Xu Yi simulated the welding of two steel plates in his mind and understood.

This welding method is undoubtedly less robust than the previous welding method, but the advantage is that the surface of the steel plate can be kept smooth and clean. It does not require post-processing like the previous welding method, which undoubtedly saves a lot of trouble. .

Moreover, this welding method will have a miraculous effect at a specific time. For example, if a magic welding gun is used for welding in many places that need to be welded, it is very difficult to weld because of space and angle restrictions. However, if this welding method is used, the steel plate If the magic circle is arranged on the side of the connection, then the welding can be completed only by butting the steel plate, with almost no difficulty.

And because this method can be prepared in advance by pre-setting the magic array, in an emergency, the welding can be completed very quickly, which can meet the requirements of some special circumstances.

Xu Yi instantly thought of the need to apply this new type of welding method in his mind, and couldn’t help but give a thumbs up to the Great Magician Camilla.

“Grandpa, you are worthy of being a great magician. You can think of such a useful method.” Xu Yi sighed when he said this. “Oh, it would be great if more great magicians like you could devote themselves to the research of magic machinery.”

Camilla the Great Mage rolled his eyes: “Are you the Chinese cabbage sold on the street when you are the Great Mage? You can find it at will?”

Xu Yi smiled: “Of course it’s not that easy for a great magician, but it’s not that difficult for a relatively advanced magician, right?”

The Grand Mage Camilla glanced at Xu Yi and snorted: “What’s the foul idea of your kid? To be honest, I knew it wouldn’t be a good thing that you came specifically to find me.”

Xu Yi immediately cried out: “Who said that there is nothing good? Isn’t it a good thing that I specially come to you for processing money?”

“Processing capital?” Camilla Grand Mage was suddenly stunned. “What do you do for me? I have a salary of more than three thousand gold coins a year now, what else do I need to add? Besides, I have a chamber of commerce that provides various magic materials for research, and I don’t need that much money. You don’t think so. If you have more money, you might as well allocate more funds to the Magic Academy.”

“The increase in the funding allocated to the Magic Academy is already under consideration, but it is imperative to increase your salary. Otherwise, how can we rely on this to attract other magicians to join our new flying business association? “Xu Yi said with a smile.

The Grand Mage Camilla frowned for a moment and understood what Xu Yi meant.

“You mean… want to raise my salary, and then use me to advertise?”

“Yes.” Xu Yi nodded repeatedly. “You see, you are now the only great magician of our new flying chamber of commerce, and that is the sign of our chamber of commerce. If something happens to you, it will definitely attract the attention of other magicians. Are you right?”

“Of course it’s correct, but…” The Grand Mage Camilla glanced at Xu Yi and said suspiciously, “How do you plan to use me to make a fuss this time? Is it just for me to pay? I don’t think this has any effect. Well, my salary is already high enough, and any increase should not have much effect.”

“Hey, there is not much effect. That’s because you add too little. If you want to really cause a sensation, of course you can’t be too stingy.”

The Grand Mage Camilla frowned: “How many are you going to add to me? Five thousand gold coins a year? That’s too much, right?”

Xu Yi smiled and shook his head, and stretched out a finger.

“No, five thousand gold coins are not too much, how can it have the effect of advertising sensation I hope. This time, I intend to directly increase your annual salary to 10,000 gold coins!”

“Ten thousand gold coins?” Camilla Grand Mage stared with surprise. “Xu Yi, you kid is crazy! Give me a salary of 10,000 gold coins for a year? Did you pick up your money as a Xinfei merchant for nothing?”

“If you want to get a good return, of course you need a good investment.” Xu Yi shrugged and said nonchalantly: “Although 10,000 gold coins is not a small amount, I think if it is used to measure the value of your great magician. , That’s too little. As far as I am concerned, the value contained in you alone is far more than a mere ten thousand gold coins. What’s more, I offer you such a salary for other purposes.”

“To make other great magicians tempted as well?” Camilla the great magician asked rhetorically.

Xu Yi smiled and nodded: “That’s right.”
