Chapter 2413: Have a Problem? Look For the Rich Woman
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After the lunch service, Mag and the system discussed retrofitting the restaurant.
The basic style would remain, but they would change the electrification products to localized products. The omniscient door would be removed and oil lamps that could continue burning for a long time would be installed.
Underground City hadn’t given him a clear reply yet, but a long period of silence meant that the other party might send a being that was more highly-ranked than Xi to Chaos City.
Mag had already displayed his power, so he wouldn’t be surprised if the other party sent an Extraordinaire powerhouse over.
The system’s technology was lower than Underground City’s, so these little things of convenience should be kept away for their best interests.
!!
Otherwise, he would be subjected to a very weird level of technology.
The steam civilization that was ahead of the Norland Continent’s current level of technology, was far beneath the Underground City’s advanced civilization. This level of technology was the most awkward.
Mag put away his things, went to the study and asked inwardly, “System, how’s the study on the mech?”
“Preliminary replication preparations have been completed, but there is a technical dating in the materials and workmanship. We don’t have any solutions for it currently,” the system replied.
“The materials and workmanship are locked. Doesn’t that mean that you have worked for nothing?” Mag shook his head. This meant that his idea of replicating a demi-god level mech was crushed.
In the mechanical industry, materials and workmanship were elements that were very difficult to break through.
One could imagine the complexity of the manufacturing process of the materials of the shell alone, which could withstand the attack from demi-god level powerhouses.
However, it wasn’t completely useless for the system to replicate this mech’s blueprint.
Judging from the importance that Xi had placed on this mech, this thing was most likely a high-tech product in Underground City too. As for what kind of bargaining chip it could be, it remained to be seen.
Anyway, there was no way that he would hand this mech’s remains to them so easily.
Even though the nuclear core was damaged, the mech was still quite intact.
The razor-sharp sword split it into two. The edges were clean and no further damage was done.
The possibility of replicating it was very high if it ended up in an institute of mechanical engineering that was relatively comparable in technology.
“Even though we cannot breakthrough on the materials and workmanship now, I’ve found an alternative plan with the materials I have currently. Although the mech’s power cannot reach the demi-god level, its power will be comparable to a 10th-tier powerhouse.” The system spoke up again.
Mag, who had already intended to use this mech to make a friend, felt his vision brighten. A 10th-tier was no mean feat. It was the top combat power on the Norland Continent. There were less than 1000 10th-tier powerhouses from all the races combined.
If the system could produce 10th-tier powerhouses in bulk, it would be a good thing for the Norland Continent.
“Are you for real? You have only turned from farming to machinery in the past few days. Are you sure you can manufacture 10th-tier mechs?” Mag had a disbelieving expression.
“Nonsense! This System majored in gastronomy and minored in agriculture and machinery!” The system emphasized angrily. “Do you have any idea how much knowledge is needed to build a farm and a ranch? Machinery, construction, animal husbandry… This is something that requires a very strong comprehensive ability to do!”
“Alright, then build a 10th-tier mech to show me first. Let me see if you are really that powerful.” Mag still didn’t look very convinced.
“This System refuses to!” the system replied emphatically.
“Are you short of funding?” Mag faintly asked.
“How do you know that…” The system sounded feeble.
Mag waved his hand and generously said, “Tell me, how much does it cost to build a mech? I’m going to invest in it.”
“According to the calculations of this System, the cost to build the first mech is 5,000,000,000 copper coins,” the system quickly answered.
After a moment of silence, Mag faintly said, “Are you building an aircraft carrier?”
“In some ways, building a mech that could move on its own and has the Norland Continent’s top combat capability from scratch, is much more difficult than building an aircraft carrier,” the system replied seriously.
Mag remained quiet for some time. He agreed with the system.
The current technology that the system mentioned, wasn’t the Norland Continent’s current technology. Instead, it was the technology that the system had.
The Norland Continent didn’t have a mature supply chain, so the system had to build its own supply chain. That was the real big project.
However, 5,000,000,000 copper coins was also a huge sum to Mag.
Scheer’s figure flashed across Mag’s mind in that instant. Only a real top multi-billionaire like Scheer would think that 5,000,000,000 was spare change, right?
“Try to lower the cost to 2,500,000,000,” Mag said with a frown.
“3,000,000,000. It can’t be any less,” the system answered decisively.
After a moment of silence, Mag asked, “What did you intend to do with the 2,000,000,000 that is removed from the initial sum?”
The system also only replied after a moment of silence, “Isn’t that prepared for you because you bargain?”

“凸(艹皿艹) !”
Finally, Mag and the system reached the cooperation agreement of making the mech with 3,000,000,000.
The system would build a mature supply chain for building a mech and build the first 10th-tier mech.
The cost for building the following mechs would decrease from the base of 3,000,000,000. The degree of decrease would be more than 50 percent. The specific price reduction would be calculated according to the system’s cost.
1,500,000,000 in exchange for a 10th-tier powerhouse. All the races on the Norland Continent were going to fight for it once the sale price was listed.

He expected all those billionaires would like to equip themselves with two 10th-tier bodyguards who would never betray them.
However, this business deal didn’t seem very worthwhile to Mag.
These mechs would be guarding the system’s farms. He didn’t need them at the moment.
However, if they really got into conflict with Underground City, these hidden trump cards would be very important.
“System, I want to see the very first mech within one month,” Mag said.
“Are you a slave driver?!” the system asked, feeling aggrieved.
“A slave doesn’t boast like you. Anyway, you only have a month’s time. That’s settled,” Mag said decisively, leaving no room for negotiation.
3,000,000,000 wasn’t a small sum. Mag calculated his wealth. The restaurant’s sales together with his recent earnings were only 5,000,000,000 in total, and most of this money was in Irina’s hands.
“3,000,000,000 is making things so hard for a hero.” Mag sighed before leaving the restaurant.
Have a problem? Look for the rich woman.
