Chapter 921 (1/2)

The North Slope Mine of Neverwinter was going to witness a great event

A new railway linking the ore stacking yard and the furnace area was being cleaned for the last time

Different from the iron coated wooden rails in the o loads It was made of pure steel and looked very heavy The ah to e, but noas fixed on the ground and exposed to wind and rain Any lord of this era would think of this construction as an enormous waste of iron and believe that only a spendthrift would leave metal to rot like this

When Roland led the conference participants to the ore stacking yard, un to stir since not every department in City Hall knew the details of what it was The officials fro their eyes on it It i size and its aura of strength, even if most of them had no idea what it was used for

They would never believe that their king who had greatly surprised the the past years was a spendthrift, but they could hardly recover froround was no different froold royals to pave a road

This was cast steel which could be sold at a high price in any city

However, Neverwinter could afford to build such a railway

After the blast furnace for iron were coer relied so heavily on the witches' power The converter still needed Anna to heat and melt the iron for the first step, but it was much more advanced than the ”Star of Steel” It could be called a miracle in this era

The snificantly upgraded due to the reconstruction efforts made by the Ministry of Construction With the help of Lotus, they had taken bold actions to blast away the ceiling of the e open pit and most of it was an iron mine

Neverwinter's steele in the last year In Graycastle, its reater than all the other cities' combined

This result ithin Roland's expectation He took it for granted that modern factories would be far more efficient than blacksmiths Otherwise, he would not have worked so hard to create the industrial equipment

As for the railway here, it was part of his experi area, the s area, and the wharf

As the narrow-gauge rail did not differ froe and load-carrying capacity, he made 15 meters the standard railroad width The nu roadbeds for this width of railroad ithin the reach of Lotus' ability The sleepers were cut out of wood logs and the ballast was fro the mine reconstruction The railway looked exactly like a railroad in modern times

But it was still a half done project Because no factory had been involved in this project yet, Anna had used her Blackfire to process and install the railway for the experiment by herself Since the Graycastle unification war, the construction of the other half of the railway had remained suspended
