"Can the Kelbo machining factory you mentioned really achieve the processing accuracy I require?"

Jiangxi Lin, who was wearing a leather jacket, black cotton and linen trousers with suspenders and sheepskin boots, was carrying a leather bag and walking with Qiu De, who was almost identically dressed, on the dark cinder road in the work shed area of ​​the royal capital.

In the distance, there are countless chimneys emitting billowing black smoke, the brick walls of the surrounding factory buildings are covered with a thick layer of fly ash, and even the snow piled on the roadside is like sludge.

The more he looked at the remote and shabby environment around him, the more unreliable Jiang Xilin felt.

"Don't worry, Mr. Xilin, there will definitely be no problem."

Qiu De spoke firmly, almost patting his chest to assure himself.

Jiang Xilin had doubts, but decided to go with him to see the situation first.

…

The two stepped on the dark cinder road, turned left and right, and passed a dilapidated stone bridge that was almost collapsed before finally arriving at the gate of the "Kelbo Machinery Processing Factory" that Qiu De was looking for.

The tall brick wall looks very similar, but the factory sign hanging next to the cast iron gate has long been rusted.

Qiu De took the initiative to step forward and gently pulled the bell hanging on the iron door.

Soon, a middle-aged fat man with a dirty fur coat wrapped around his upper body, dark brown hair curly and messy, a beard all over his face, and carrying a wine bottle wandered out of the small shabby house in the courtyard.

"You...you, who are you looking for?"

He was drunk and confused, and even his speech was a bit slurred.

"We are from Tongen Research Institute, and we are here to find Mr. Kelbo, the owner of your factory."

"If you're looking for Mr. Kelbo, hiccup, then you guys, wait, wait, I'll go, go..."

"Please go and report as soon as possible."

Jiang Xilin really couldn't stand the drunkard's ink stains, so he directly interrupted his words.

The drunkard opened his eyes, glanced at Jiang Xilin, then turned around and walked unsteadily towards the factory shed.

Jiangxi Lin was really speechless.

Although the door wall of the Kelbo Machinery Processing Factory looks quite impressive, the brand name and the drunkard guarding the door hardly make people feel at ease.

Qiu De smiled awkwardly at Jiang Xilin, not knowing what to say, so he had to stand aside silently, waiting with Jiang Xilin.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes...

Five minutes passed, and the yard behind the big iron gate was still quiet.

Not to mention the drunkard who went to report the incident, not even a worker, Jiang Xilin, was seen.

Logically speaking, with a processing plant of this size, shouldn't there be even a single worker?

"Qiu De, are you sure there's nothing wrong?"

"I……"

Qiu De opened his mouth, but finally lost the confidence to pat his chest and say the words full of affirmation like before.

"Where did you find out about this machine processing factory?"

"From a friend of mine who works as a clerk in a factory..."

"to be honest."

Jiang Xilin frowned, and his tone suddenly became a bit colder.

At the same time, a strong mental wave enveloped Qiu De, putting pressure on him through the spiritual level.

Qiu De, who was already in awe of Jiangxi Lin, suddenly couldn't resist.

Without the slightest hesitation, Qiu De immediately poured beans through a bamboo tube. How would he meet Kelbo in the tavern? How would Dow Jones be tricked by him, and how would he take two silver langs under his inducement and put him in the tavern?

Introduce business to him.

Jiang Xilin looked at his fearful look and couldn't help but sigh,

"I should also promise you some benefits after the business is completed."

"Mr. Xilin, I..."

Qiu De immediately raised his head and stared at Jiang Xilin in shock, feeling an inexplicable fear in his heart like facing a monster.

Don't ask Jiang Xilin why he knew it, just guess.

This Kelbo Dow Jones can be considered a talent.

"How much kickback did he promise you?"

rebate?

Although he had never heard of this term, Qiu De, who was not stupid enough, understood the meaning after a little thought.

"One, a golden shield."

Qiu De was extremely frightened, and he could hardly think of deceiving Jiang Xilin's inquiry.

He just wanted Jiang Xilin to finish his questions quickly, and then silently accept Jiang Xilin's anger and punishment.

But he didn't know that Jiang Xilin actually had no intention of punishing him. On the contrary, he was quite satisfied with Qiu De's performance in pursuing his interests.

After all, it is much more difficult to control a stubborn person who has no desires and desires than to control a person who loves fame and fortune.

"We'll talk about this later."

Jiang Xilin breathed a long sigh of relief, calmed down his mental fluctuations, and looked at the yard behind the big iron gate.

A young man wearing a long black coat, a gentleman's hat, and two mustaches came out.

He held a pine cane under his arm and walked toward the gate at an slow pace.

The middle-aged drunkard who went to report the incident drunkenly followed the young man.

"Two gentlemen, good afternoon, welcome to Kelbo Machinery Processing Factory. Exit Kelbo. Dow Jones. My ancestors once received the title of viscount. My great-grandfather also held the title of knight. Today, I am Kelbo.

The sole heir of the family and the current owner of this factory."

The young man with a mustache who walked to the door had an enthusiastic tone, coupled with what he thought was an elegant movement, Jiang Xilin's first impression was that this guy was full of a contrived second-tier style.

Jiangxi Lin was speechless at this time.

Before he asked anything, the man who called himself Kyle Bo Dow Jones poured out all his basic information without reservation.

Jiangxi Lindu suspected whether this guy was drunk.

"Mr. Kelbo, are your family accustomed to discussing business with customers through the big iron gate?"

"Haha, of course not, I'm asking people to open it."

Kelbor Dow Jones suddenly showed a somewhat embarrassed smile, and then said to the drunken concierge behind him,

"Open this door, Goff, open it quickly."

Lulu——

The drunk middle-aged fat man Gao Fu made a sound similar to a pig's snort, then swayed left and right to the big iron door, took out the key, and thrust it into the keyhole.

Jiangxi Lin: Speechless.

Qiu De: Terrified.

Kelbor Dow Jones: Smile.

"Give it to me, I'll do it."

Seeing Jiang Xilin's increasingly gloomy expression, Qiu De knew that he could not delay any longer, so he stepped forward without any explanation, snatched the key from the hand of the dim-eyed Gao Fu and inserted it many times without success.

snap——

The iron door opened, and Jiangxi Lin sighed silently in his heart.

He no longer expects this machining shop to be able to process parts that meet his precision requirements.

Just treat the wasted time as if you had nothing to do and went out for a walk to relax.

Jiangxi Lin took Qiu De and followed Kelbo Dow Jones. Listening to Dow Jones, who kept talking nonsense, he told them how famous Kelbo's machining was back then, how big the scale was, and its processing accuracy was even higher.

He is one of the best in the entire kingdom.

Just the price…

"I'll give you the blueprint. Take a look at how many gold shields are needed to make this set?"

Jiangxi Lin was too lazy to follow him around the deserted factory, let alone listen to his beeping in his ears.

He took out the design drawings directly from his wallet, handed them over, and used those component design drawings that required extremely high precision to put pressure on him, making him say no.

Sure enough, within two minutes of Kelbo Dow Jones receiving the design drawings, his eyebrows began to gradually tighten.

"It can be done, but the price will be a bit more expensive."

"How much do you want?"

"At least seventeen or eighty...20 for a gold shield."

Jiangxi Lin heard this, took back the drawings, turned to Qiu De and said,
To be continued...
