Chaos City, the Buffett Manor.
In the brightly lit study, Scheer was poring through the documents on the desk.
The secretary came in, and reported, “Young Mistress, the entire steam engine department was diverted into the study and production of cannons. The engineers and workers are very enthusiastic.”
Scheer put down the documents, and looked up at the secretary. “Well done. Give all the engineers and workers one month of salary in advance. Give it to them tomorrow according to the previous standard.”
This was the city lord’s castle’s request. Scheer already knew about the incident in the ice plain in the north of the Roth Empire.
This was a matter that concerned the survival of all the races on the Norland Continent. As a banker whose market was the Norland Continent, she saw the opportunity under the crisis.
All the races would meet in Chaos City tomorrow to discuss the matter. If things went as expected, they would sign a new peace treaty on the spot.
This meant that if the Norland Continent could get through the current crisis of the devil and the army of the dead, it would welcome another 100 years of peace.
This was an extremely precious opportunity. To the Buffett Family, this concerned their life and death.
Hence, she didn’t hesitate at all when she got the city lord’s castle’s request, and diverted all her engmeers and workers into the production of cannons.
She might not be able to make any contributions at the frontline, but with the Buffetts’ financial power, she still could do many things at the rear.
“Oh, yes. Have you run tests on the firepower of the cannons?” Scheer curiously asked.
The city lord’s castle didn’t say where the cannon came from, but if City Lord Michael put such an importance on it, it should be rather powerful.
The secretary took out a piece of information from his bag, and said, “The city lord’s castle has just run a test this morning. We got a report from them. A small caliber cannon’s power was equivalent to that of an Exploding Fireball released by a 3rd-tier magic caster. A medium caliber cannon’s power was equivalent to that of an Exploding Fireball released by a 4th-tier magic caster, and a big caliber cannon’s power was equivalent to that of an Exploding Fireball released by a 6th-tier magic caster.”
“It can reach the power of a 6th-tier magic caster?!” Scheer was rather shocked.
Although a super big caliber cannon was considered as a steel giant, this was a tool that even an ordinary person could manipulate.
This meant as long as there were ample numbers of super big caliber cannons, they could have the combat power of a batch of 6th-tier magic casters all of a sudden.
“This designer is a scary genius.” Scheer couldn’t help but praise.
She had seen the raw materials necessary to make a cannon. Although they were unusual, they were not expensive and rare. The goblins could provide them in abundance.
However, no one could imagine that those assorted things could have such terrifymg power when they were pieced together.
Meanwhile, those circular barrels gave those cannons the ability to fire at long range.
However, if this weapon of mass destruction had appeared 100 years ago, the previous racial war would have been even more terrifymg.
That designer had to have chosen this time to debut the cannon because he saw that the various races had decided to sign the peace treaty, and there wouldn’t be a war in the next 100 years.
Scheer also admired the designer’s foresight.
Scheer said to the secretary, “Recruit more blacksmiths in Chaos City. Pay them double and let them join the cannon-making team. We have to expand our
output as much as we can.”
“Alright.” The secretary left quickly after receiving his order.
Scheer couldn’t help but pace in the study. It was an eventful period, but it also was a great opportunity.
If she could go along with it and grasp the chance, she might be able to create a huge business empire like her grandfather.
The Moreton Manor.
Gloria listened to Jeffree explain the Norland Continent’s current situation with a grave expression.
After a moment of silence, she said to Jeffree, “Grandfather, I would like to donate all our cotton yarn and cloths to make winter wear for the soldiers who are going north to fight against the army of the dead. ”
Surprise flashed through Jeffree’s eyes, but it soon became gratification as he nodded with a smile. “The cloth factory is already yours, you don’t have to ask me whenever you make a decision. However, why are you doing this?”
With a serious expression, Gloria said, “All the races are in a dire situation now. We can only survive by facing the crisis as one.
“We cannot go to the front line to kill the enemy, but we can do our part in the rear. Even if we can only provide a piece of winter wear for the soldiers, it’s better than doing nothing at all.”
Jeffree nodded with gratification. “That’s right. This is a completely different crisis from 100 years ago, but it’s also a rare moment in time when all the races on the Norland Continent come together to fight against an enemy.
“If we win, the Norland Continent will enter into another 100 years of prosperity, and it will trigger the conditions for all the races to intermingle.”
That would be a great age filled with imagination. It would also be the era that people of his generation would like to witness the most.
However, this age was destined to belong to the youngsters.
Jeffree looked at Gloria with praise. He didn’t have to worry about the Moreton Family’s legacy now. Gloria would definitely leave her own legend in the next generation.
Mag didn’t wait for too long before someone knocked at the door.
“They’re here.” Mag got up to open the door. Four young ladies who looked quite capable stood at the door.
Mag smilingly said to the four maidens, “Hello, are you ladies here for the interview?
Smiling gently, the short-haired girl in the lead said, “Yes. Boss Eiffie recommended us to come for an interview here.
Mag stepped to the side, and said, “Please come in.”
The four maidens came in. Judging from their temperament and demeanor, they should be quite experienced. They knew what they were doing, and they looked at ease, making people feel rather comfortable.
“Please take a seat.” Mag poured them a glass of water each before sitting across from them with Irina.
They were sizing up the four maidens who came for the interview, and the four maidens were also sizing up the young boss couple.
They were supposed to go for an interview at Titan Tavern. They heard that Titan Tavern had just won the liquor-tasting’s event’s gold award, and its business was booming.
However, Miss Eiffie recommended them to this Saipan Tavern opposite. Apparently, this Saipan Tavern had gotten the liquor-tasting event’s gold award too, and it had no employees yet. The bosses needed manpower, and they gave quite a high salary.
Mag spoke up first. “I’m Hades, the boss of Saipan Tavern. This is the lady boss. Can you guys do a short introduction first? It will be great to talk about your resume too.”
The maiden with short hair was the first one to reply. “I’m Jones, and I’m 18 years old this year. I have worked as a tavern and restaurant’s service staff for five years, and I was a small captain for one year...”
