Chapter 640 What kind of mission is this? Is it difficult?

After figuring this out, the two began to bargain.

Although the other party didn't know the value of Hargreaves and had no culture, he was very cunning when he saw Jiang Tian asking about this thing.

First, he asked for ten bottles of distilled liquor with a concentration of more than 30 degrees, and he also had to return one of his subordinates to him, so that he would agree to make a deal.

Jiang Tian couldn't bear to kill this old customer too hard.

Then he agreed to the other party's conditions and returned an ordinary subordinate.

As for the wine, Jiang Tian used the excuses of too long construction period and insufficient materials to promise to give him 2 bottles of wine first, and the remaining 8 bottles of wine would be traded to him in installments.

After all, he still had to make money with [Palace Jade Liquor] during this period, and he couldn't pay it all at once. And when other survivors who knew the brewing technology developed, the price of wine would gradually drop over time.

The two sides hit it off and reached a deal.

Finally, a man appeared in front of Jiang Tian.

"Hello, my master."

Jiang Tian nodded and glanced at the other party.

He looks to be in his 40s or 50s, with brown hair and a white collar, and he looks quite gentlemanly.

"Are you James Hargreaves?"

"Yes, my master, what can I do for you?"

"Call me boss from now on, I have a good job for you now."

Jiang Tian leaned his head over.

"Can you make a Jenny machine?"

"Of course!"

Speaking of this, Hargreaves' face was full of pride.

"My boss, as long as you trust me, I will use my skills and achievements to help you get rich quickly!"

After saying this, he seemed to remember something, and then his expression was a little complicated.

"Of course, there are prerequisites for making a Jenny machine. First of all, there are certain requirements for wood, and raw materials for textiles are also needed, otherwise it will not be used at all."

"That's easy, follow me!"

Jiang Tian patted the other party's shoulder and then led the other party to the north of the island.

"This, this is..."

Seeing the scene in the north, Hargreaves opened his mouth in surprise.

After this period of development, the planting area of ​​farmland has reached 10,000 square meters, which is 15 acres.

Of course, it can't compare to the thousands of acres of farmland in the previous world, but in this place, the farmland area on Jiangtian Island can be regarded as the first!

Moreover, due to the current food inflation leading to price drops, Jiang Tian also ordered Song Yingxing to reduce the planting of grain and change to some oil pressing and cotton and linen crops.

In front of Hargreaves, this piece of land is a Feng Shui treasure land!

Then, he looked at Jiang Tian with excitement.

"Where I lived before, the farmland area was less than 5%! My boss, you have a good vision!"

"Oh? Really?"

Hearing this, Jiang Tian felt a little bit amused.

It seems that this kid is usually busy enjoying himself, and the grain is probably directly purchased while the price is relatively low now, and he doesn't care about future development at all.

I don't know how this person has developed to the present, maybe he is also lucky?

"Boss, I can start working now!"

Hargreaves looked at the farmland with shining eyes.

"However, it takes a long time to make the machine. If someone can help..."

"I thought of this a long time ago. Come with me!"

Before the other party finished speaking, Jiang Tian patted his shoulder again and led him to the timber warehouse in the northeast.

"Lu Ban! Let me introduce you to a new colleague!"

After Jiang Tian shouted, the old man Lu Ban came in front of the two.

"My lord, this is..."

Before Jiang Tian had time to introduce, Hargreaves saw the furnishings in the timber warehouse and strode forward.

At this time, in addition to rows of wood, there were many "exhibits" in the timber warehouse.

These are all the equipment that Lu Ban had made before, such as crossbows, catapults, wooden steam engine models, etc., and some figurines.

Some of these things are models, and some are semi-finished products, which were left here by Lu Ban as a souvenir.

"Oh, my God! Look what I found!"

Hargreaves looked around, then rubbed the exhibits with his hands, his eyes red.

"This craft is simply... great! With the help of such a magical craftsman, my machine..."

Lu Ban scratched the back of his head at the other party's sigh, and couldn't figure out what this man with strange hair and clothes was doing.

Jiang Tian didn't care, and communicated with Lu Ban about the improvement of the waist machine into a Jenny machine.

After the communication, Hargreaves also returned to the two of them.

He bowed to Jiang Tian and stood up, his eyes full of excitement.

"Boss, I'm glad to serve you, we can start making it now!"

Jiang Tian nodded, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

"Okay, Lu Ban, the Jenny machine will be handed over to you two, I'm waiting for your results."

"Yes, lord!"

...

After walking out of the timber warehouse, Jiang Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as there is this person, the Jenny machine is settled.

When this thing is fully manufactured, his island will have a Jenny machine and a steam engine, reaching the beginning and symbol of the industrial revolution!

Although there are only 400 people on the island, the work efficiency is incredible!

Of course.

After these two things are made, we have to find a way to make use of their value.

Let’s not talk about the Jenny machine for now. This steam engine is currently only used in the blacksmith shop. We have to develop it in other areas...

Thinking of this, Jiang Tian looked at the south of the island and walked towards the blacksmith shop.

…

"Dang, dang, dang..."

Accompanied by the continuous knocking sound, Jiang Tian walked into the blacksmith shop and looked inside.

At this time, there were four lathes and punching machines equipped with steam engines, and the blacksmiths were busy.

According to this efficiency, the blacksmith shop will have to expand again.

Due to the existence of the empty earth spirit, the efficiency of construction has been greatly improved. It is possible to consider building a large factory...

"Hey, boss, why are you here suddenly."

Thoughts were interrupted by Tang Yan. Jiang Tian glanced at Tang Yan, touched the dragon fly that came up, and then said:

"Is there any need to ask this? Of course there is a task to be assigned to you."

"Gudong!"

Hearing this, Tang Yan's smile froze.

"Boss, what's the task? Is it difficult?"

"Not that difficult. We have this thing on our island, but we haven't made it for your blacksmith shop..."

After saying this, Jiang Tian slapped Tang Yan on the shoulder and looked at everyone in the shop.

"I want you to make the iron fan. I want to drive the island like a car!"
