Starting Life as a Baron - Chapter 380

[Chapter 378 The Legendary Powerhouse, Alan!]

Alan was slightly surprised by Harry’s return, but after hearing his request, Alan laughed.

“Do you want iron car technology?”

Alan slightly paused the action of cutting the lamb chops in his hand.

“Yes, Archduke Allen, I think the Empire definitely attaches great importance to this kind of technology.”

Harry’s face was serious and solemn. Only after seeing the advantages of the iron car could he understand his mood at the moment.

“Technology can be handed over to you.”

Allen smiled: “But it’s impossible to give it to you for free. Even if it’s an empire, I won’t provide technology for free.”

“Of course, as long as you’re willing to provide the technology, we can pay enough.”

Harry said with a smile.

“This kind of technology is nothing. It will be implemented sooner or later. Even if it does not retreat now, sooner or later, there will be other people who will imitate railway cars.”

Allen smiled slightly, and he was already mentally prepared for this. One month after the train was opened to traffic, the Principality of Lane has already put forward a request to learn this technique.

Allen certainly wouldn’t give it away for free.

This technology is extremely valuable to the mainland.

The core technology Allen is absolutely impossible to provide, but if the railway is made, Allen doesn’t mind.

If the railway can be used to open up the gateways of various countries, this will undoubtedly bring the business development of the Duchy of Allen to a higher level.

After all, if there is more developed transportation, then business exchanges will become more convenient.

Business, especially large-scale commodity trading, is often very troublesome. If it is only transported by carriages or convoys, it will consume a lot of manpower and material resources, and in this world, there are robbers, bandits, and even monsters in some places. .

In short, this world is extremely dangerous, and it is dangerous for caravans to transport goods.

And if there are iron cars, this problem can be solved.

The iron car is very fast, and there will be patrolling personnel around the iron car. When building the railway, the surrounding monsters and bandits will be eliminated first, and the iron car will also be protected by certain knights or magicians.

Security and speed are greatly improved.

The most important thing is that the iron car can transport a lot of goods at one time.

So long ago, Allen had already started trading with the surrounding principalities. They provided gold coins and some resources, and Allen could help them build railways.

But the core of the iron car cannot be given to them.

After all, as a convenient means of transportation, in addition to daily life and commercial trade, iron carts are also extremely beneficial to wars.

The iron car was built to be able to have a speed far exceeding that of other countries.

If the core is handed over, Tieche will lose its strategic advantage.

“But the core can’t be given to you.”

Allen turned around and said softly, “We can make railway cars for you, but I can’t give you the core technology.”

Harry was taken aback for a moment, but he didn’t react immediately, but lowered his head and thought for a moment.

On this trip to the south, he originally only came to confirm Ellen’s situation.

But obviously, the current situation far exceeded his expectations.

Because Alan is so good.

From the moment he entered the capital, Harry clearly felt the difference between this country and those other small countries.

The country looks so perfect.

Many facilities are not even in the Empire.

Allen College students are also very good.

Potions are also very powerful.

Even traffic is so powerful.

If it wasn’t for the territory on the edge of the continent, Harry would have thought that he had come to a powerful king’s capital.

He is now thinking about what Allen said.

That is, the core technology cannot be obtained.

This means that the Empire will be suppressed by Aaron in some way.

For a great empire, this is impossible to accept.

But Harry didn’t threaten Ellen.

no need.

This wise grand duke obviously wouldn’t just compete with the empire without knowing anything.

After seeing the signs of Allen’s capital, Harry felt that Allen was not as simple as it seemed.

From the first time he saw Alan, he felt a vague sense of crisis.

It wasn’t a strong feeling, but it made Harry understand how terrifying the force contained in the body of that young, over-the-top man was terrifying.

The strength of this grand duke is definitely not just a dragon knight who has just entered the sanctuary.

Harry was certain of this, and this was why Harry had always respected Alan.

In addition to because Alan is a dragon knight, Alan’s strength is also a reason.

Harry wasn’t sure how powerful Alan was.

But he knew that Ellen was definitely an amazing figure.

This kind of person who can do well in all aspects and can even achieve great achievements is definitely a rare genius even in the empire.

… ask for flowers.

Such a guy, Harry really wants to win over.

but……

Allen’s request is undoubtedly against the Empire.

The hegemony of the empire is almost impossible to agree to.

this is a problem.

Even the purgatory king may not be able to withstand the pressure of the empire.

“Grand Duke Alan, your request is not excessive, but the power of the empire is not that large. To be precise, most of the nobles of the empire have become accustomed to the feeling of superiority. They may not agree to your request.”

Harry was a little helpless. To be honest, he didn’t want to force an extremely gifted genius.

But he had no choice.

It would be fine if he didn’t see the iron car, but when he saw the iron car, he couldn’t turn a blind eye.

“That’s the question.”

…0 Allen started cutting the lamb chops again, putting the roast lamb in his mouth.

“Actually, I thought the Empire would force me to hand over the potion formula right away, but to my surprise, Marquis Harry, you didn’t do that, and you could even promise me that I wouldn’t be forced.”

“Instead, it’s the iron car that I don’t care too much about, so you can’t make any promises?”

Alan chewed the mutton slightly, held the golden wine glass in his hand, took a sip of the wine, and said with a comfortable expression.

“I’m sorry, Grand Duke Ellen, the iron car is very important and may affect the fate of the empire, so…”

Harry bowed his head slightly to apologize. He understood the domineering and violence of the empire. Once the powerful empire knew about the iron car, it would probably immediately put pressure on the Duchy of Allen.

Allen waved his hand, he finished the roast lamb chops slowly, and then wiped the grease stains from the corners of his mouth.

“You don’t need to apologize, it’s to be expected, it’s just a change of target from potions to iron carts.”

Allen chuckled: “I’m sorry, let me refuse your request, I still say that, the core technology of the iron car can’t be given to you.”

He looked calm and calm, but there was a strong aura constantly surging from his body.

Even Harry, the marquis from the empire, the powerhouse of the sanctuary level felt an indescribable terrifying pressure in front of Allen.

“Legend… Legendary Realm?!”

Harry was stunned, and the whole person was stunned on the spot.

The faces of the students around him turned pale in an instant.

Allen just released a little breath, enough to make them feel suffocated. Several.
