Chapter 126 Interview
Luke's words made Razield completely let go of his psychological burden.
Through information obtained from the outside world, he knew that Bingkuo had taken the blame for colluding with the Golden Shield Empire on the resistance. If he did not accept funding from the Golden Shield Empire, people like him would most likely be wiped out, and then he would be killed.
People insult and write at will.
Now, what about colluding with the Golden Shield Empire?
By raising the banner of "anti-war", a wider group of people will support the resistance. By stepping from the underground to the surface, you can gain initiative from passivity.
After thinking deeply, Razield's heart suddenly became enlightened.
"Mr. Luke, you are worthy of being a wise man that we admire. To be honest, except for those of us who have ideals, no one knows how to realize them. Your arrival has pointed out the path for us to take.
The ground and underground of the Winter Capital are not the same world. Our experiences underground are incomprehensible to surface residents. The only people who sympathize with us are fellow miners. And 'anti-war' can help us gain sympathy from more people.
Only then will we have greater living space.”
Luke couldn't help but sigh that Razield was really a natural leader, thoughtful and knowledgeable.
It’s a pity that it hasn’t been discovered by players in the game?
Thinking of this, Luke couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment in his heart. In the past, recruiting talents relied on players' strategies. Today, he actually discovered a hidden top-notch hero with his own hands. The feeling of pleasure cannot be compared to advancing with the strategy.
of.
It was like finally having a biological son.
"You have agreed to accept funding from the Golden Shield Empire Secret Intelligence Service."
"I agree! I want to be the living winner!"
"Then let me talk about my funding plan for the Winter Capital Resistance." Luke took out a map and laid it on a flat stone, pointing to several marks on it: "The red price means there is underground thermal energy, you can use it.
The thermal energy there produces steam; the green dots represent edible fungi growing there, which can be used as short-term alternative food; the red dots represent dangerous underground creatures; the blue dots represent alchemy materials there, and you will definitely gain something if you look for them carefully.
.
The important thing is this golden area, this is a gold mine..."
Razield looked at Luke's map and the marks on it, and was extremely shocked. Through his knowledge of the tunnel maze, he was able to confirm that the map and the price were real, and that they were more detailed than he knew.
Has the Secret Intelligence Bureau of the Golden Shield Empire explored the underground of Winter Capital so thoroughly?
And when Luke mentioned the gold mine, Razield's mind instantly went blank.
Gold mine!
There are actually undiscovered gold mines.
Razield looked at the location pointed by Luke and said doubtfully: "I know this place. It is an abandoned iron mine. In the thirty years of mining, no one has discovered that there is a gold mine there."
"If people at that time continued to dig deeper, they would soon see golden gold." Luke smiled mysteriously: "Mining gold mines is not difficult for you. Consider it another gift from me.
.”
Luke is more happy than originally planned for the best hero he has discovered...with his own hands.
"If there really is a gold mine there! I, I don't know how to thank you enough."
"Wealth is not important to me. What I want will naturally come from you. I will arrange a safe passage for you so that the gold can reach Raging Wave City smoothly. The gold will turn into a mixture of mysterious substances and
Other supplies will be delivered to the underground steam city, and enough force will make your voice louder."
Razield stood up and saluted Luke: "Mr. Luke, please rest assured that we will do our best to bring this evil war to an end as soon as possible."
Luke looked at Mina: "Send all the women and children who came out with you to Raging Waves City. Mina is of school age now, and I can fully support her studies.
If she is talented and hardworking, I can introduce her to Oulu Academy.
I have a very good relationship with Miss Qingzora, the head of the Oulu Academy Occult Studies Department!”
Mina goes to Raging Wave City!
The first thing that came to Razield's mind was the hostages... Of course, the Golden Shield Empire's Secret Service would not trust the miners hiding in the tunnel maze without reservation.
But as the world's leading metropolis, Raging Waves City is definitely the best place for Mina. She will get a life thousands of times better than here, and can even enter the top magic academy, which she has never dreamed of before.
Something to dare to think about.
Razilde had already begun to imagine her daughter wearing magic robes and a wizard's hat.
"It's up to you, Mr. Luke, and thank you for your gift."
After defeating the underground resistance, Luke has accomplished the purpose of his trip.
Luke then discussed some details of support with Razield, and finally asked the rebels to attack several more mines in the near future, shifting the ice cave's attention more underground.
When it was all over, Luke put on his hat again and left the camp, disappearing into the darkness as the rebels sent him off.
Returning to the Underground Steam City, I changed back into my clothes in a deserted place, and then went to a biker bar to gamble a bit casually.
It wasn't until evening that Luke staggered back to his residence smelling of alcohol.
The surveillance Ice Cave agents are in place.
After counting the number of suspicious people around him, Luke fell asleep.
He is not worried about the ice cave agents coming to arrest people. There should be movement in the other protective umbrella he arranged in the winter capital in the near future.
The next day, Luke went to work as usual, except that there were a few more tails following him.
Luke allowed them to follow, making no sign of having discovered them.
Come to the company's steam engineer work area and go to Mrs. Yolanda's office to receive today's inspection task.
A man dressed as a scholar was already waiting there.
Mrs. Yolanda was extremely happy to see Luke, and she was full of praise: "Engineer Luke, you fooled all of us! A 'steam enthusiast' who has been publishing high-quality papers in "Steam Weekly" during this period.
It's you!
I thought it was some master in the Steam Association who published his works under a humble pseudonym.
Come...let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Waltsky, the deputy editor of Steam Weekly."
Luke has recognized Vartarski. Although he is the deputy editor of "Steam Weekly", he actually shares the final review work of most submissions and has a high status in "Steam Weekly".
"Steam Weekly" is an academic journal on steam technology sponsored by the Dongdu Steam Engineers Association. As an authoritative publication on steam technology in the world, not just casual steam technology papers can be published in it.
After Luke arrived in the winter capital, he submitted articles to "Steam Weekly" under the pen name of "Steam Enthusiast". The quality of his manuscripts...are all copied from papers that will be published in "Steam Weekly" in the next one or two years.
There is no reason not to publish the manuscript.
After Mrs. Yolanda introduced Luke, Vartarsky couldn't wait to say: "Hello, Mr. Luke. You have published a total of five papers in our "Steam Weekly", each of which is wonderful.
, with strong foresight and pioneering spirit in steam technology.
In particular, the recent submission "Two-Phase Water Molecules and Internal Cycle of Thermal Energy" has inspired many steam technology research institutes to improve the utilization rate of steam heat energy.
I made a special trip this time because I was entrusted by Editor-in-Chief Molson to invite you to the editorial office of "Steam Weekly" for an exclusive interview."
Luke said modestly: "Many of my papers were spurred on by a whim. To be included and published in Steam Weekly was beyond my imagination.
In fact, just like the pseudonym I use, I am still just a hobbyist, an ordinary steam engineer who has just obtained the engineer qualification certificate.
Accepting an exclusive interview with "Steam Weekly" is a treatment that only masters can have. I... am far from qualified."
Vartarsky was very fond of Luke's humble character. He had just learned through Mrs. Yolanda that this young steam engineer was very serious about his work and never complained about the work of inspecting underground pipelines.
"To be honest, even if you are a master, it is impossible for every article you submit to be successfully published in "Steam Weekly". If you have five consecutive papers published in "Steam Weekly", your achievements have far exceeded those of your peers.
.
You are very talented, and editor-in-chief Molson and I made the unanimous decision to conduct an exclusive interview with you."
Mrs. Yolanda on the side also persuaded: "Engineer Luke, being interviewed by Steam Weekly is something that many famous steam engineers dream of.
This is your opportunity, which will greatly improve your future development.
The most direct thing is that your salary will increase several times.
Go ahead, I don’t have any work for you here today.”
Luke had no choice but to agree: "Okay, I'll give it a try. If I say something wrong or make a joke, please don't mind me and Editor-in-Chief Molson."
"What we researchers are least afraid of is making mistakes. It is the most real thing if young people make some jokes. Don't worry, Editor-in-Chief Molson and I have read your paper over and over again, and we both have confidence in your talent."
Luke stabilized his mind, then followed Deputy Editor Vartarsky out of the Harut Heavy Industries office building and got into a car heading to the "Steam Weekly" editorial office.
In the car, Luke chatted with Vartarsky about his fabricated school experience while sorting out his steam technology knowledge.
Qingkong’s learning of the knowledge of the Epoch world is comprehensive and uninterrupted.
In order to disguise himself as a qualified steam engineer, Qingkong also specially learned a large amount of knowledge related to steam technology in a surprise attack, and asked the mental sphere to store the collected works on steam technology in the mental library.
With the knowledge gained from the clear sky, the spiritual library, and the mobile phone database, Luke felt that there should be no problem in handling an exclusive interview.
If it doesn't work, just reveal the future steam technology, guaranteed to bluff people!
Arriving at the editorial office of "Steam Weekly", Luke met Editor-in-Chief Molson under the guidance of Vartarski.
Editor-in-chief Molson is an old and somewhat obese old man. He is a well-known legend in Dongdu. He was once the dean of Dongdu Magic Steam Academy, served as the president of Dongdu Steam Engineers Association for several terms, and participated in Dongdu.
Design of new urban steam systems.
After retirement, Molson is the honorary president of the Dongdu Steam Engineers Association and the editor-in-chief of "Steam Weekly".
The cold winter aggravated many of Editor-in-Chief Molson's illnesses, but in order to meet the genius "steam enthusiast", he still dressed up and waited in his office.
"Hello editor-in-chief, I am Luke, a steam engineer from Harut Heavy Industry. I am honored to meet you."
Luke bowed respectfully to Editor-in-Chief Molson.
"Don't be nervous, just treat this as a normal conversation, sit down first..." Waiting for Luke to sit across from him, Molson said with a kind smile: "You are older than I think of a 'steam enthusiast'
I believe that as long as you are given enough space, you will soon become a steam technology master who can influence the world.
Vartarsky, what level of membership does Engineer Luke currently hold in the Dongdu Steam Engineers Association?"
Vartarsky said: "Engineer Luke has just come to work in the Winter Capital and is currently only a first-class member of the Society of Steam Engineers. According to the number of papers he has published in Steam Weekly, it is enough to be promoted to a second-class member.
Just because he published papers under a pseudonym, he still needed to go to the Society of Steam Engineers to go through the promotion process."
Editor-in-Chief Molson nodded: "Is the second-level membership a bit low? We should not only look at the quantity, but also the quality. The papers published by Engineer Luke are very, very valuable."
Vartarski said with a smile: "The average age of third-level members is over forty years old, and the youngest is thirty-five years old. If I jump up the ranks, I'm afraid it will cause dissatisfaction among some people."
Molson turned to Luke and said: "The fifth-level member is the highest level of the Dongdu Steam Engineer Association, and the fourth-level member can be regarded as a master.
You have to perform well in this exclusive interview! If you can satisfy me, I will promote you to a fourth-level member. The steam engineer supervisor of Harut Heavy Industry is also a fourth-level member."
Becoming a senior member of the Dongdu Steam Engineers Association is equivalent to having a talisman in Dongdu. This is why Luke continuously submits high-quality papers to "Steam Weekly".
Now that the Ice Cave agents have their noses on their doorstep, a first-class membership in the Society of Steam Engineers is not enough to deter them.
But the fourth-level member of the Institute of Steam Engineers and the exclusive interview with "Steam Weekly" are different.
If there is no clear evidence, anyone who wants to attack a fourth-level member of the Society of Steam Engineers in the winter capital must first consider whether he can withstand the wrath of the Society of Steam Engineers.
"Although I am very scared to accept an interview with Steam Weekly, I am very much looking forward to learning more from my conversation with you.
In fact, this is also the most direct reason why I came to work in Dongdu.
I am ready……"
Vartarsky set up his typewriter on the table nearby, looking forward to the start of this exclusive interview.
Editor-in-Chief Molson put on his glasses and picked up a piece of paper on the table. The densely written words on it were all the questions he had prepared for this exclusive interview.
"Let's start with your recently published "Two-Phase Water Molecules and Internal Cycle of Thermal Energy." The two-phase nature of water molecules was proposed and discovered by Professor Magamili. Water molecules have both thermal phase and weak thermal phase. Thermal phase has a significant impact on thermal energy.
