Stormwind Wizard God-Chapter 533: Tech

How many technologies that can be considered as high technology of this era were needed to evolve from the era of primitive steam engines to the era of widespread use of steam locomotives?

Duke didn't count.

But as an engineering student, and a student majoring in architectural environment and equipment engineering, he has enough knowledge to overcome all of this.

Damn it, why study a major with the word "environment" in it? There is no environmental knowledge at all, but I have to study thermodynamics and boilers?

When I was learning about boilers, I got a dead-faced instructor with a terrifying aura. He was a beast and a doctoral supervisor. On the first day of class, he threw a poor kid who was playing with his new iPhone out of the fourth floor. This made Duke, who had skipped three classes the day before the time travel, go to study like a grandson. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Well, study hard, it always pays off.

Duke was talking to the three dwarf kings about his ideas for the black technology called trains, as well as the things to pay attention to. The three dwarf kings all looked like disciples, especially Magni and Gelbin, who were taking notes in notebooks.

Even though the fact that griffins are always used in Aerie Peak seems to have nothing to do with this matter, the dwarves' fascination with black technology is almost ingrained in their bones.

The other kings didn't understand at all, but that didn't stop them from looking impressed, as if they didn't understand but still thought it was super cool.

It doesn't matter if they don't understand, as long as they feel it works.

"Dalin, what do you think?" Thoras asked in a low voice.

"When it comes to Duke's work, I've never seen him be unreliable." Daelin gave him a very high evaluation.

Antonidas decided to stop Duke first: "Okay, next question, we all think that you can build this...railway to Redridge Mountains. What about the Swamp of Sorrows? You can solve the technical problems for the time being, but what about the threats in the swamp? Our people suffered a lot when they crossed the swamp. And where are the manpower to build the railway?"

Duke snapped his fingers, and Gavinrad, who was guarding the door to the side hall, immediately understood and opened the door.

Not only the kings, but all the guests were extremely surprised.

Because standing at the door were two Nagas wearing leather armor with the Stormwind emblem and a strange fishman.

Everyone knows that Stormwind has Naga and Murloc troops. Everyone thinks that these are some low-level races that are not presentable, even though they have always been part of Stormwind's organization. No one thought that Duke would formally introduce them on such an occasion.

"Let me introduce to you all. This is the Murloc Prophet Mogor, the Wrathscale Naga Priest Zjara, and the Thornspine Naga Priest Sephiris."

Zjara had not attended an important occasion for a long time. After the battle at hai Cliff to annihilate the main force of the Blackrock Clan, she almost thought that she had lost her value and was forgotten by Duke.

Unexpectedly, Duke actually introduced her to the top leaders of the alliance.

This is undoubtedly an improvement in status and recognition of identity.

"Dear kings, Zjara Avis salutes you." Zjara and Sephiris folded their arms and bowed to the kings.

The kings nodded in return.

Even if it was insignificant, it was at least an indescribable respect. The three alien leaders were all moved to the point of trembling.

Duke continued, "I will use the portal to send the Naga troops and some elite Murloc troops into the Swamp of Sorrows. At that time, the railway construction project in the Red Ridge Mountains will be undertaken by the newly captured orc prisoners. The Murlocs and male Nagas will help in the Swamp of Sorrows."

Magni discussed with Gelbin and said, "We believe that the technology provided by Duke will have an epoch-making effect on our mining skills and mineral transportation. In return, we, the Bronzebeard dwarves and gnomes, will unconditionally provide the iron ingots and workers needed to build the railway."

When the kings heard this, there was an uproar.

No one expected that Duke's new technology would allow the dwarves to give away iron and manpower for nothing.

This is the lifeline of transportation that was almost picked up for free!

Everyone was talking about it for a while.

Duke's move was really brilliant, wasn't it? He said he would pay for everything, but in the end he barely had to spend a penny.

Are the Bronzebeard dwarves fools?

Of course not. Didn't you see that when the Alliance was first established, the Ironforge dwarves were in a state of not letting go of their eagles until they saw the rabbit? After dealing with dwarves for hundreds of years, everyone knows that under the seemingly rough character of dwarves, there is unexpected shrewdness. They will never take the initiative to deceive others, but they will never let themselves be deceived at will.

Duke's technology is definitely the key they have always dreamed of, which is why they are willing to pay so much.

Llane nudged Anduin with his elbow and said with a smile: "See, I said that putting Duke in the overall position is where his abilities can be truly brought into play."

Anduin replied with the same smile: "Remember the year when Stormwind City almost suffered from famine?"

"Um."

"If we could have transported the grain from East Elwynn to Stormwind that year, there wouldn't have been so much trouble."

"Yes! The wheat rots halfway through the journey."

People in this era do not have much concept of logistics, but this does not prevent those far-sighted kings from seeing the benefits of high-speed logistics.

Duke said in general terms: "The construction of the railway can also stimulate the upgrading of Ironforge's production technology. For example, I can let Ironforge make a set of building molds. Mass production according to the molds can shorten the time to build a house by half."

...

Duke answered the kings' questions with a smile, and every answer was very satisfying.

And he is full of confidence in this plan.

Didn't you notice that before the time travel, the country had been working on the 'Belt and Road Initiative'?

Haven't you seen how the country's logistics industry has prospered and boosted the economy of various regions after the popularization of high-speed rail? As long as this plan succeeds, it will not only create a military hub, but also a complete economic lifeline.

That's right, every country was severely damaged after the war and needed all kinds of reconstruction.

Duke's approach was undoubtedly a form of relief through work. And with the construction of railways, more food and specialty products could be transported out from the depths of the closed forest, either as supplies to the Cursed Land, or shipped out from Storm Harbor and sent to various kingdoms in the northern continent as commodities.

Duke's special post-war economy undoubtedly allowed countries short of gold and silver to find a new way to stimulate the economy.

In just one night, Duke made people forget about being the leader of Lordaeron.

Yes! Without the help of the once wealthy Lordaeron, after leaving out Lordaeron, Quel'Thalas, and Gilneas, the remaining eight nations of the Alliance have found a new way to both resist foreign enemies and revitalize the post-war economy.
