After leaving the Moza River, Du Dian ordered the carriage to go to the nearest raw materials market in the Eastern District.
"What are you doing there?" Kaqi, who was sitting in the same car, looked at Du Dian in surprise.
Du Dian glanced at him, "What do you think you can do in the raw material market?"
"Buy raw materials?" Kaqi resisted the displeasure of being asked back, and asked doubtfully, "Didn't you want to take me to hunt outside the wall?"
Du Dian rolled his eyes and said, "Without weapons, how much can you hunt by yourself?"
Kaqi snorted, and proudly said: "Even with bare hands, it's not a problem for me to kill hundreds of monsters with a hunting level below 20 a day. If I wait for my body to recover, hum..."
"Too little." Du Dian shook his head directly.
Kaqi was stunned, "Not enough?"
"It's pitifully small."
"..."
After a while, the two came to the raw material market in the East District. The market was huge, about the size of a small town, and contained raw materials of various materials. The roads were built extremely spacious, allowing them to shuttle to various lanes in the market.
It was still early at this moment, and many early risers had already gathered in the market, waiting in front of various chambers of commerce. If you looked carefully, you would know that these chambers of commerce had discount activities today, which attracted a group of people to rush to buy early in the morning.
Du Dian ordered the driver to go directly to the steel market.
Among all kinds of natural raw materials such as minerals and coal, steel is a new type of material produced by the Temple of Elements. Its birth history is decades earlier than "plastic", and it is called artificial raw material just like "plastic". Although the history of steel is not comparable to that of coal and raw minerals, the demand is not inferior to the former. There are many chambers of commerce that sell steel in the raw material market, with a daily turnover of tens of thousands of tons of steel.
Du Dian knew that behind such a huge transaction volume, it was caused by the rapid transformation of the living environment inside the wall. However, limited by the current smelting technology, the quality of the steel on the market is far from the quality he needs. It can only be used to make ordinary firearms, and thermal weapons such as primitive cannons. If it is used to make tanks, armored vehicles, etc. , The texture of steel is far from enough.
Therefore, Du Dian is going to refine and quench again by himself to improve the purity, but if he wants to get the steel he is satisfied with, he needs to go through the electroslag remelting environment, which requires the use of electricity.
The so-called pulling one hair to move the whole body, Du Dian has already planned to make a generator by the way this time, but not a modern generator, but an early hand-operated DC generator.
While thinking in his heart, Du Dian got out of the carriage and took Kaqi to find a steel chamber of commerce. If you remember well, the backer behind this steel chamber of commerce is the Huasheng consortium. The only consortium that will not turn against their Ryan family is the Huasheng consortium. Although the Sheng Financial Group sold them a military crossbow last time, it cost them a fortune, but this is a battle that should be part of the negotiation, and it will not lead to enmity, and it is also a matter of your will.
"It's a pity that my consortium doesn't have a chamber of commerce..." Du Dian looked at the high and solemn gate of the chamber of commerce, sighed inwardly, and entered the chamber of commerce along the steps.
"Welcome." The maid at the door said respectfully.
When Du Dian came to the hall, the resplendent hall made people feel small, but he had long been used to such a luxurious dress, and looked around calmly, and soon a beautiful middle-aged woman came quickly, sweeping Glancing at the burly and tall Kaqi behind Du Dian, he smiled at Du Dian and said, "Master, what do you need?"
Du Dian said calmly: "Which model is your best steel?"
"The best steel is X30." The middle-aged woman said with a smile.
Du Dian nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I want to order ten tons."
"Ten tons?" The middle-aged woman was delighted, and said, "No problem, do you know the price?"
"Hmm." Du Dian nodded.
The middle-aged woman felt relieved and said, "Wait a moment." She turned and left in a hurry.
Du Dian was waiting quietly in the hall, and Kaqi said to Du Dian Qi: "Why are you here to buy steel, do you know a good craftsman? Even if you want to save money, don't bring such savings."
Du Dian said softly: "Shut up."
Kaqi raised his eyebrows slightly, looked down at the boy, clasped his fingers, snorted, and didn't speak again.
"Hey, this person is..." Suddenly, a suspicious voice came from the side.
Du Dian turned his head and saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl looking at herself, dressed plainly, but Du Dian saw at a glance that there was a medal pinned to her chest, a hexagonal shield shape, which was the medal of the Temple of Elements, It's just that the pattern inside the medal is a golden hand, representing the faction of the golden element.
"Really!" The girl saw Du Dian's face, her eyes widened, and she ran over in surprise, saying, "Are you Du Dian's envoy?"
Du Dian did not expect to meet the envoy of the Temple of Elements here, and was recognized by the other party. It seems that his reputation in this circle has really become louder. He nodded and said: "It's me, hello."
The girl said in surprise: "My name is Ailan, hello, it's a great honor to see you in person!"
Du Dian smiled slightly and said, "You are polite."
The girl suddenly thought of something, and said in surprise, "I remember you are the envoy of the wood element. What are you doing here, are you buying steel? Could it be that steel will be added to your new magic?" For excitement and admiration, although Du Dian's "Military Crossbow" previously belonged to the magic of the wood element, but the crossbow bolts are made of metal, so it belongs to the magic of wood combined with gold, but it is dominated by wood.
As for the envoy, being able to mobilize the elements he belongs to and create a new divine art is already quite remarkable, but adding other elements to it is even more difficult, which also proves his talent and accomplishments from the side.
Du Dian smiled slightly and said, "Maybe my new magic will be the magic of gold elements."
The girl covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "You really know how to joke, if that's the case, you are a dual-line god envoy, and they are both very powerful!"
Du Dian smiled and said nothing.
"Ailan, who are you talking to?" A voice suddenly came from behind.
Ailan looked back and saw a tall young man dressed in an expensive suit, with blond hair that nobles love, full of noble temperament, and a medal pinned to his chest, which is also the envoy of the golden element.
The young man stepped forward to hold Alan, and looked at Du Dian hostilely. If he hadn't noticed the nearly two-meter-high bodyguard (Kaqi) standing behind Du Dian, he would have turned his face coldly.
Seeing that he didn't recognize Du Dian, Ailan immediately introduced him excitedly: "He is the genius god envoy Du Dian, the youngest person who won the Medal of the Times. We are so lucky to meet him here."
The young man froze for a moment, looked at Du Dian twice, the hostility on his face did not fade at all, but became a little bit stronger, took Alan's hand and turned around: "Ailan, come with me, I suddenly have something to say to you Say." Saying that, he grabbed her and turned to leave.
Alan was at a loss, but he didn't resist, and was torn away by him.
Du Di watched quietly, and saw that the two of them walked to a corner that he could not see, and the distance was far away. The young man said in a low voice, "Don't get close to this person in the future, he is too dangerous."
"Danger?"
"You don't understand this. Although this person is talented, he is arrogant and offended a big consortium. If people know that I have been in contact with him, our family will also be in trouble."
"Ah, so serious?"
"Well, don't get close to him in the future, God of Light blesses you, I hope no one sees what happened just now..."
When Du Dian heard the voices of the two, his eyes flickered slightly.
Kaqi's face changed, and he looked at the young man in front of him in shock. Now he finally knew the identity of the other party. He turned out to be the envoy of the Temple of Elements, and seeing the attitude of the two of them towards Du Dian, it was obvious that they were of a different level. No wonder they came here to buy Raw material.
