The old blacksmith nodded to show that he understood, but he still had questions: "The 150-mile-long railroad track is going out, and this is a good iron that is 150-mile long. Someone or monster will come to steal our railroad track, this is all going up. Good steel, if it is stolen, we will lose a lot..."

Robb smiled: "So, it's better to drive the car slowly at first. The driver saw that the track in front was stolen, and he had time to stop quickly so as not to cause an accident. Then, quickly repair the track and the car will be fine. Continue to set off. As for those who dare to steal our railroad tracks, leave it to Director Elsie, oh, no, it's Captain Elsie who will clean it up, hahahaha."

"What's the use of assisting such a long rail and mine cart to go to the rough rock canyon?" The old blacksmith was very puzzled.

Robb said: "It's useful, but I'm too lazy to explain, you'll know it later."

When the old blacksmith heard Godfather's words about being lazy, he had nothing to ask about. Godfather, who had started being lazy, was mad, and it was impossible for him to explain to himself at length.

He had to bow obediently and said, "Then I'll go back and arrange for the apprentices to build the rails, and the students of the carpenter class to make the sleepers. In addition, I'll bring some of the best craftsmen to study how to make the locomotive."

Robb smiled and said: "Okay, let's do it as soon as possible. The most difficult part of the locomotive is the engine. Now that the engine has been fixed, there should be no other difficulties, and there is no need to pay attention to the beauty and elegance. It's just right that the little train comes out."

"Okay!" After the old blacksmith saluted, he hurried away.

Robb was about to be lazy, when he suddenly saw from a distance a slender figure walking over on the path in front of the church. It was actually the daughter of the Minister of the Palace.

This woman is No. 1 in the top ten school flowers of the Magic Academy. She is quite beautiful, a gentle water magician, but Robb looks at the crystal ball every day to see Miss Queen, the first beauty in the Gran Kingdom, compared to what No. 1 in the Magic Academy is not a level, so this poor school girl has never been able to get into Robb's eyes.

She walked to the front of the church, saluted Robb, and said respectfully, "Godfather, good evening."

Robb had to pretend he didn't know her, so he put on a curious face: "You are?"

"I came from the road of light." She said respectfully: "I came to greet you with my classmates at noon, but there were so many people at the time that you might not have noticed me."

"Oh oh!" Robb pretended to be suddenly enlightened: "What's the matter with you coming to me?"

The palace minister's daughter blushed slightly: "Well, I... came to find Robert. I didn't know my life in West Wind Town, and I didn't have any friends, so I... wanted to talk to him and accompany me for a walk. "

Ghosts have no time for you. Robb deliberately put on an old-fashioned look, and turned on the preaching mode with a deep voice: "What walks? You young people, you know how to be lazy! Do you practice magic spells? Do you have a good meditation on magic? Magic runes are memorized. Is it? Robert has no time to talk to you. He is now carrying the wind magic book crazily in the church. It is impossible to play with him. As his mentor, I will not let him and you ignorant bad boys Play!"

Daughter of the Minister of the Palace: "..."

Freeze!

After dozens of seconds, she bowed her head aggrievedly: "Then I'm leaving! Godfather is disturbed."

She turned to leave, and the setting sun dragged her lonely back so long that she looked desolate.

Robb was secretly happy: Hey! A two-wire operation is avoided.

Just thinking of this, another figure came over in the distance. It was actually Marianne. She passed the daughter of the minister of the palace, walked to the door of the church, and bowed to Luo Baiyingying: "Godfather, good evening."

Robb cursed inwardly, another one?

But it's okay, no matter how many people come, just block them to death.

"You're here to find Robert too?" Putting on a serious face, he repeated the set of lines he said to the daughter of the Minister of the Palace, and finally added: "You bad boys. , don't interfere with Robert's studies again."

"Hey? Godfather, you misunderstood." Marianne smiled: "I didn't come to find Robert, I just had a cooperative relationship with him. On a personal level, I never played with him, nor did I have any special feelings. ."

Rob Daqi: "Then what are you doing here?"

Marianne smiled and said, "I'm here to find you."

Chapter 407 Please Teach Me About Doing Business

"Looking for me?" Robb deliberately lowered his voice and said old-fashionedly: "I don't know you well, how can we chat?"

Hearing him calling himself an old man, Marianne did not complain, but showed a face of admiration: "You are the greatest businessman I have ever seen, you can turn everything into a miracle, my father often told me that you cut the cake The story of selling for eight yuan and sixteen yuan, the story of the one-year advance fee for tap water and the zero initial installation fee, and the advertising method you taught my father, all benefited our Cotton family a lot... "

Robb: "..."

Marianne blushed slightly: "I adore you incomparably. I want to worship you as Robert's teacher. He learns style magic, and I learn business skills, okay?"

Robb: "..."

This is very embarrassing. It's not that Robb refuses to teach people. When he is interested, he will teach the people around him all kinds of knowledge casually. However, if you want him to be a teacher and systematically teach people how to do business, it will not be possible. . First, he didn't have the mood, and second, he didn't have the ability.

Being a teacher is a university question. There are many people in this world who are full of talents but can't teach others. Besides, Robb doesn't think he is very talented. He knows all kinds of messes borrowed from later generations. Business common sense.

Robb shook his head: "I don't teach, I don't teach! I'm not familiar with you. You came to visit me for some reason, and I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

Marianne said: "I will pay a very generous tuition fee."

Robb continued to shake his head: "I'm not short of money."

Marianne felt very uncomfortable now, her small mouth pouted pitifully, and Bara turned around to leave.

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Robb felt a little sympathetic. After thinking about it, when I first went to the Magic Academy, this girl took care of herself quite a bit. She asked for money for money and materials for materials.

Is there anything you can teach her without much effort? At the same time, this thing can improve the world when it spreads!

"Ah! Got it!" Robb said suddenly: "Marian, I don't have time to teach you business slowly, but it's okay to lay the foundation for you. I want to ask, people in your family often need Do you want to do a large number of customer calculations?"

Hearing Robb's greeting, Marianne turned her head overjoyedly: "Yes, we often have to settle accounts."

"Then how do you do mathematics?"

Marianne was refreshed and beckoned to the servant who was following behind. The servant actually brought a set of strange tools and placed it on the table in front of Robb.

Robb looked closely. This thing was a large wooden board with several parallel lines drawn on it. There were also many counters like "chess pieces" on it. Each counter was made of copper, about two or three centimeters. A square circle with Arabic numerals from 0 to 9 marked on it.

Marian put these counters on the wooden board and smiled: "This is a threading abacus, and our Cotton family uses it to calculate accounts, and the speed is very fast."

"Oh?" Robb was very interested, and asked a simple math problem casually. Seeing that Marianne was quickly arranging the calculator on the wooden board, after a while, she calculated all the problems he gave.

She was a little proud: "Godfather, am I pretty fast? My father has trained me to use the abacus since I was a child. My calculation speed is faster than my father! It is the best in the Cotton family."

Robb said with a smile: "Yes, you are really fast, but you are still not as fast as me, you are optimistic."

Robb stretched out his hand, took something from the air, and a piece of wood flew over.

As soon as he rubbed the wood, he rubbed the wood into a big Chinese-style abacus. It turns out that this is a "decoration" produced by the carpenter in the game "Dark Blade". This abacus is used for pure decoration on the back.

When Robb was in college, he took a few abacus classes. Although he was not very good at using abacus, he would still do it.

He set the abacus and said with a smile, "You said that you are the best in the Cotton family, so what's the matter? I'll make you the best in the entire Gran Kingdom."

Marianne looked at the abacus, confused: "This is?"

"This is also an abacus." Robb said with a smile: "Come, report the bill, and I'll show you the calculation."

Marianne looked puzzled, looked at a string of beads, didn't know what it meant, but of course there was no problem with reporting the bill, she just rushed into the account and out of the account, the purchase cost X gold coins, and the shipping earned X gold coins... , extra long bills.

Robb listened to her count, and fiddled with the abacus beads in his hands. Fortunately, he didn't forget the abacus lessons he took in college, but he barely kept up. If he couldn't keep up, he would pretend to fail. . Fortunately, the liver emperor is the liver emperor. The first few abacus lessons were also obtained from the liver. It is not very skilled, but it is enough to abuse the Western "threading abacus".

Marianne finished reporting the bills, and Robb just finished it, and stopped, pretending to be calm and clear: "The answer is that the final balance is 1032 gold coins, right?"
