Reckless Through The New World

Chapter 563: Exhibition hall? Crystal Palace!

The day after the wedding, everyone started to get busy.

Some traversers who hated trouble have left, but there are still many people left. In order to build the exhibition hall, they chose a small villa near Pret's workshop - this villa was bought shortly after Pret arrived in Trela ​​City, with a three-story building and a warehouse There is a small square in front and a small garden in the back. Although it is not as good as the mansions of the great nobles, in the mansions of common people and rich people, at least the area is not bad.

The exhibition hall and the residence are completely different buildings, so the passers-by flattened the entire building without hesitation, and then started construction again.

In order to get enough lighting, the entire exhibition hall is almost built with artificial crystals. These artificial crystals use the purest natural quartz sand, which is melted and reshaped by a powerful magic flame, which looks crystal clear, just like a piece of gem- - No, crystal is a kind of gem. In other words, this exhibition hall is a wonderful house built with gems.

The construction process was not fast due to the need for meticulous crafting. Many people came to watch curiously, wanting to see what this exhibition hall, which will collect countless rare treasures, looks like. As a result, they were almost stunned when they saw that the pieces of crystal were carved square and square, and then glued to the shape required by the architect under the power of magic.

"Oh my god! Are you building a house with crystals?!" Princess Feisna yelled in a rude manner, "You are planning to build a crystal house!"

"Is the Crystal House weird?" asked Jenny - now it seems she should be called "Mrs. Yama".

Princess Feisna stared at her for a while, and said, "This exhibition hall... how big are you going to build?"

"Four layers of light and dark." Praet came over and introduced, "The bright one is two layers, where various exhibits are placed. The dark one is also two layers, and the purpose will not be explained."

Princess Feisna nodded, she didn't intend to ask how the two floors hidden in the dark would be constructed, and what kind of use it would be used for, she was interested in another question: "If there are four floors, then How many crystals to use?"

"I haven't counted it, but two hundred tons of crystals have been prepared so far, and if it's not enough, it can be added at any time," Pret said.

"Two hundred... tons?!" Princess Feisna's eyes widened, looking at him with almost dull eyes.

Crystal is indeed a relatively cheap gemstone, but no matter how cheap it is, it is still a gemstone, not an ordinary stone.

Building a house with crystals is an extremely luxurious thing. And when Princess Feisna heard Pratt casually use the unit of measurement "tons" to calculate the crystals needed to consume, she felt that her brain was almost out of order.

(Did I hear it wrong? Generally speaking, shouldn’t gemstones be measured in grams? Even if crystals are not so valuable, using kilograms as a unit is the limit, right? How can you use tons? And… it’s still hundreds of tons. ...)

(What kind of exhibition hall is this? It's like the Crystal Palace!)

She spoke in a groaning voice: "You...really rich."

Well, besides "really rich", she really couldn't think of any other words to describe Prett and the group of friends.

Seeing pieces of crystal being used as building materials and the foundation of the house, she felt dizzy, even her legs were a little weak, and she had to support something to stand firm.

Luckily there was something nearby to help—her good friend, Jenny Weskers, who suddenly became a rich woman for some reason—oh, now it's time to call her Jenny Yama.

The whole people of Master Pret is Pret Yama. I have never heard of Yama, so it should not be a prominent family in the contemporary era, but from the perspective of his friends—Princess Feishna felt that after returning home today , you should check the ancient books of the First Era and Second Era to see if you can find a family with the surname "Yama".

She dared to bet with one finger that Pratt and his group of friends were mostly descendants of old families who had been passed down from ancient times to the present. They have a closed social circle and hardly interact with outsiders; they have rich resources, and the wealth is so much that the king is jealous; they are extremely powerful, and many families have legendary powerhouses and even more than one...

She had always thought that these rumors were just stories made up by bards, but now she dared not think so.

Facts speak louder than words. Facing a crystal house that is gradually being built, if she still insists on her past ideas, then she is the number one idiot in the world!

But she didn't know that the crystals used by travelers were far less expensive than she thought.

They are nothing but "quartz glass" made by melting natural quartz sand at high temperature and then condensing.

On earth, quartz glass is also quite expensive, but in this world, its cost is greatly reduced. The main reason is that the quartz sand can be easily filtered out of the sea sand by magic, and it can be melted while isolating all other impurities except air, and the bubbles in the molten quartz liquid can be directly pumped away... …Several major issues affecting quality have been resolved by magic, how can the cost not be low?

In the words of silicate expert Lao Bai: "Magic is a good thing. If magic can be used on earth, I can squeeze all other optical equipment manufacturers in the world out of business by selling low-priced quartz glass! "

Of course, it is another matter how LOW the idea is to make money by selling quartz glass even though he has mastered such a powerful power as magic.

The people who are in charge of the construction are also traversers, and they are not at ease when this kind of thing is handed over to outsiders.

In this exhibition hall, many traps will be arranged, some of which are purely joking, some will cause certain damage to the enemy, and some will kill. After the exhibition hall is completed and opened, there will be a lot of people who want to try to sneak in and steal, and they will definitely want to get the design drawings of the exhibition hall. So instead of thinking about "secret" and other issues, it is better to control this classified information in the hands of one's own people from the beginning.

If someone is really powerful enough to be able to steal maps from the system notes of the traversers, then it can only be considered that he has the ability, and everyone is willing to be defeated.

As the days go by, the construction progress of this exhibition hall increases little by little, and the number of people who pay attention to it is also increasing day by day.

An exhibition hall built entirely of crystals, even if there are no exhibits in it, the exhibition hall itself can already be regarded as an outstanding work of art. In the city of Terrera, many people have already called it "Crystal Palace".

According to the information bought from the Thieves Guild, at least thirty or forty large and small groups of thieves have expressed interest in this exhibition hall. Most of them don't even plan to steal the treasures in the museum at all, they only plan to smash a few "bricks" on the wall of the exhibition hall and take them away.

Although crystals are not expensive gems, large crystals are still valuable. For those small gangs of thieves, as long as a few pieces of "building materials" are taken away, at least within a few years, they can have food and clothing without worry.

When they got this news, the traversers just sneered.

Want to take advantage of them? If you are not afraid of death, just come!
