Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 349: Stargazing city

Guanxing City is located in the northwest of Huaiyuan County, where the entire slave trading market in Huaiyuan County is located.

The scale of the slave market in Guanxing City ranks first not only in Huaiyuan County, but also in the entire Weiyi Subcontinent, for no other reason, because in addition to the native slaves of the Weiyi Subcontinent, other continents and some scattered human races Slaves in the settlements will also be transported to Huaiyuan County by sea ships endlessly through overseas trade, and then transferred from ports such as Yiyang Port in Huaiyuan County.

The slave trade is the fourth largest traded commodity in the human world in this era. In the eyes of those slave traders, the slave trade is an important way to optimize the overall human resource allocation of the human race and maintain the survival of the fittest within the human race and keep human beings vigorous and enterprising.

Although the slave trade is not noble, it has the inevitability and rationality of its existence. After all, let alone slaves, everyone in this era is living under the threat of the great wheels and demons of the era.

The name of Stargazing City is very poetic, but this city is not poetic at all. In addition to the huge slave trade here, there are also the largest and largest casinos in Huaiyuan County, the largest brothels and the bloodiest and most brutal underground fights. field.

The Zhang family of Huaiyuantang showed another image of this family here.

Many people can imagine the place where the most slaves, prostitutes, and gamblers gather. If the Stargazing City is in another place, then the city would be extremely chaotic, but because it is in Huaiyuan County, because in addition to slaves, prostitutes and gamblers stationed in this city, there is Huaiyuantang's most terrifying Hurricane Corps, so the order of the city is surprisingly good.

The crime rate in this city is even lower than that of Yiyang City, and the level of public security in the entire city can rank among the top three among the eight cities under Huaiyuan County.

The Hurricane Legion is an iron fist of Huaiyuantang. The total number of the legion is 420,000. More than two-thirds of these people are slaves from various continents and countries. After completing the established service period or obtaining corresponding military merits , Huaiyuan Church will give these slaves the status of free people.

The Hurricane Corps has existed for more than 300 years. During these 300 years, Huaiyuantang has worked out an efficient and stable management system for this mixed army. Under this system, the combat effectiveness and loyalty to the family of everyone in the army have been tapped to the greatest extent.

There are many seniors in Qianlongtang. After leaving Qianlongtang, they served in the Hurricane Corps as officers at all levels.

The general information about the stargazing city was learned by Zhang Tie when he was at home these past two days.

Zhang Tie, who had stayed at home for two days, left Jinhai City on the 25th after having breakfast at home, and went to Gazing Star City alone.

At this moment, Zhang Tie, facing the sun above his head, wearing a pair of sunglasses, is driving a Xianlong T9 pull-wind sports car that has just been bought for less than an hour, and is driving fast in Jinhai City. On the highway of Star City.

In just this hour, Zhang Tie understood several things.

The first one is that the cars in Heiyan City that cost a thousand gold coins are very expensive. Most ordinary cars powered by steam in this era can actually be bought at prices ranging from 100 gold coins to 200 gold coins. The biggest reason why the cars in Heiyancheng are so expensive is that Heiyancheng itself does not produce cars. The cars that are transported to Heiyancheng from the outside pass through the heavy taxation barriers in various places and the exploitation policy of Heiyancheng Automobile Monopoly. After that, an ordinary car was sold at a sky-high price.

Because Huaiyuan County has its own automobile industry, the price of buying an ordinary steam-powered car in Gimhae City is only over one hundred gold coins.

The Xianlong T9 sports car that Zhang Tie drives now costs a little more than 500 gold coins, which is already considered a high-end car in the car.

This is the first thing that Zhang Tie understands, and the second thing that Zhang Tie just understands is that although cars in this era are all steam powered, the power effect brought by different steam power units installed on the car is totally different.

Xianlongzuo T9 is equipped with a turbine steam heat recovery external combustion engine, which is an engine between an internal combustion engine and an ordinary steam boiler engine. Compared with ordinary steam engines, this engine has higher heat. Utilization efficiency, the fuel used by this engine is not coal, but anhydrous alcohol which is N times more expensive than coal, but its combustion value is not as high as coal.

This turbine steam heat recovery external combustion engine has 9 parallel pistons. The pistons are installed obliquely to the chassis. Under the action of the pistons, its power output is transmitted not by rotation but by swing. With the help of the tilt shaft, it changes from swing to rotation. It is transmitted to the axle through the angle transmission device to drive the car forward.

Compared with cars that use coal and ordinary steam engines as the power unit, this kind of car that burns alcohol and uses turbine steam heat recovery external combustion engine has the biggest advantage of quick start, which can greatly shorten the warm-up start of steam-powered cars. time.

But its shortcomings are also obvious, that is, the use cost is extremely expensive.

One kilogram of anhydrous alcohol requires about ten kilograms of grain raw materials to be fermented. Ten kilograms of grain, in coal-producing areas like Heiyan City, can almost buy a ton of coal, even in other places. Buying hundreds of kilograms of coal, coupled with the burning value of the same weight of alcohol is far lower than coal, the cost of using the same burning value, alcohol exceeds the price of coal fuel nearly a thousand times.

These many factors have made the alcohol fuel-powered cars of this era truly become an expensive toy that only a few people can enjoy.

Before the catastrophe, humans could still obtain alcohol through the chemical industry. With the depletion of petroleum and other resources and the advent of cataclysm, people in this era can only obtain alcohol by traditional grain fermentation methods. In this era, many countries even prohibit the production and sale of any power equipment that uses alcohol as fuel.

However, some strange countries, such as the mad emperor of the Holy Golden Orchid Empire-Sea Song VII, had fantasized about creating a powerful alcohol internal combustion engine to realize his dream of flying to the sky.

I heard that before the catastrophe, alcohol could indeed be used as fuel for the internal combustion engines of cars and airplanes, but after the cataclysm, just like the status and properties of many things have changed, the burning value of alcohol has also become significantly lower, so It cannot meet the requirements of being a high-efficiency internal combustion engine fuel.

...

Xianlong T9 is currently running on the road at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour. At this speed, Zhang Tie enjoys the comfort of the roadster because of the speed.

After leaving Qianlong Island, Zhang Tie had a feeling that the money he earned had finally turned into money.

On Qianlong Island, as soon as the upper mouth touched the lower mouth, hundreds of thousands of gold coins were spent, and it became a castle under construction. Every day, even a little potion was sold and hundreds of gold coins were credited. This made Zhang Tie almost ignore the gold coin.

And at this moment, driving this high-grade recovery potion that is not as valuable as the expensive sports car he used for my brother, looking at the various envy, jealous eyes projected from the people and vehicles along the way. There is only one feeling in Zhang Tie's heart-it's great to have money!

After leaving Qianlong Island, you can buy a sporty sports car for a few hundred gold coins, and two or three gold coins can make you stay in a city without doing anything comfortably for a month, hundreds of coins You can buy a good house with gold coins, you can buy a villa with thousands of gold coins, a family can enjoy a delicious meal with more than ten silver coins, and you can hire an ordinary worker with dozens of silver coins...

All of this made Zhang Tie realize the magic of money again.

The Stargazing City that I'm going to at this moment is a place where the magic of money is fully interpreted. Here, money can even buy people. The value of a person here ranges from dozens of gold coins to hundreds of gold coins.

Zhang Tiebai carried a gold ticket worth 20,000 gold coins that Zhang Taibai had handed him after buying a pot of full potion from him. This time he came to Star City to buy someone.

After experiencing a crisis, it is time for Zhang Tie to slowly turn his money into a strength that can deter others, otherwise he can use his money for a bird, and he can chase him when he encounters a few rubbish. Like a dog, if there is such a thing in the future, he will pile up the garbage with his money.

After driving for more than an hour, there were more billboards on both sides of the highway. Those billboards were either beautiful women in **** dresses or all kinds of gambling equipment in the casino. There are billboards for hotels, casinos, and brothels in Stargazing City every few hundred meters.

Of course, there is also an advertisement for the largest slave trading market in Stargazing City. The advertisement on the background of the outline of a special building has only one sentence-Paradise Lost, everything you need is here.

A melodious engine roar came from behind, and in just two or three seconds, a red sports car drove to the left lane of Zhang Tie Xianlong seat T9, and the two sports cars drove side by side.

Compared with the Xeon Dragon T9 with sharp edges and corners full of masculinity and sharpness, the lines of the red red rabbit sports car are more elegant and slender, making people know at a glance that it is a car suitable for women, driving a sports car. She is also a young beauty with short hair in her twenties.

Zhang Tie and the beauty looked at each other.

What Zhang Tie did not expect was that the woman looked at him with disdain, and finally lifted her chin at him and made a provocative look...
