"Wow, these things are really incredible." Aaron originally thought that Mekkatorque's performance when facing those mechanical creations was already exaggerated. Unexpectedly, some of the subsequent dwarf craftsmen performed even more exaggeratedly than Mekkatorque. Their posture made them want to bury themselves in the pile of machinery.
After the enthusiasm of these dwarf craftsmen subsided, Mekkatorque introduced the purpose of Aaron to his colleagues, and briefly introduced the identities of these dwarf craftsmen to Aaron.
"Young man, I have a question. You said you picked up these machines. In other words, these machines are not your own products."
The name of the dwarf who made the noise was McNeil·Sicco Thermaplugg. When Aaron heard his name, he couldn't help but look at him a few more times. After all, this would be the main culprit that would cause 80% of the dwarfs to lose their jobs and leave their hometowns in the future.
"Indeed." After hesitating for a moment, Aaron nodded and acknowledged Sicco Thermaplugg's statement, "As far as I know, I am not the only one who has technological creations of this level of technology."
"In that case, the remuneration we will pay you will be..." Sicco Thermaplugg looked at Aaron and said, the purpose of lowering the price was obvious.
"But the prerequisite for this is that you can obtain similar goods in a short period of time." Aaron, however, did not pay attention to Sicco Thermaplugg's words and deeds, and continued, "You master craftsmen should have heard about how bad the environment of Northrend is, right?"
"You mean..." Mekkatorque said in surprise, "Did you get these things from Northrend?"
"No, I brought it back from Broken Isles, but I can guarantee that if you want to get mechanical creations with similar technical levels, you can only find them in the areas with the worst environment in Northrend."
"Huh, who knows whether what you said is true or false?" Sicco Thermaplugg said with a look of disbelief.
"That's all I have to say. Whether you believe it or not, masters, is your business." Aaron bowed slightly to these dozen dwarfs, and after finishing speaking, he walked aside and waited peacefully for these master craftsmen to come up with a result after discussion.
"Why don't you say that this thing is unique to you?" Vereesa stood next to Aaron and asked curiously. In her opinion, only Aaron should know the news about these mechanical creations that are advanced in technology by the dwarves. In this case, Aaron should say that these things are only available here and strive for the maximum benefit for herself.
"If I only make this one deal and never deal with the dwarfs from now on, I can say that." Aaron explained his thoughts to Vereesa. He wanted to reach a long-term cooperation with the dwarfs. In this case, it would be better to be honest from the beginning, so as not to expose the matter later and cause any problems in the cooperation between the two parties.
Moreover, Aaron took the initiative to reveal this information with the intention of testing the dwarfs. If the conditions given by the dwarfs were too excessive, then Aaron would have no choice but to give up cooperation with them.
"You seem to attach great importance to the dwarfs?" Vereesa rolled his eyes and asked, "Are their mechanical creations important?"
"Well, to say it's important... it's indeed important." Aaron nodded. In fact, what he was thinking was that if he was researching machinery, he could rely on his experience and knowledge before time travel to provide some ideas. If he was cooperating with a force like Dalaran that focused on magic research, he wouldn't be able to help much.
This is also the reason why Aaron happily sold the Arcane Construct core to the Alliance at a high price, but was only thinking about reaching a cooperation with the dwarf.
Although the engineering of the gnomes inevitably incorporates Azeroth's various supernatural powers, for Aaron, it is ultimately much easier to understand than Arcane's powers such as life.
"Ahem, your name is Aaron, right?" After the craftsmen discussed for a long time, Mekkatorque, the great craftsman, walked towards Aaron with a slightly embarrassed expression and said, "Passing by us After discussion, these mechanical products you brought are indeed very useful to us dwarves. Although these things are not unique to you, we are still willing to give you a suitable price. After our discussion, the reward we can pay you is..."
"Wait a minute, great craftsman." After Mekkatorque said the high-price offer, Aaron pretended to have just remembered it and said, "By the way, I have another good thing here that I want to show you. In terms of reward, you might as well finish reading it."
"Oh? Do you have something good in your hand?" Mekkatorque's eyes lit up. After the research just now, he has determined that the technical level of these mechanical creations brought back by Aaron from Broken Isles is very high. If Aaron has something better in his hand, then he simply can't imagine how high the technical level of the dwarfs can be improved.
"Then, please wait a moment." Aaron winked at Vereesa and left the bottom cabin with her.
Vereesa When Aaron said that he still wanted something good, he thought of Aaron going to move the Mechagnomes that seemed to be broken, but he didn't quite understand what Aaron wanted to do by asking him to follow him out.
"By the way, didn't you say before that this Mechagnomes can only be left to dwarfs for research?" Vereesa curiously followed Aaron back to the upper cabin and asked as he watched Aaron hold the heavy Mechagnomes against the profiteers.
"That's what I really think, but it's no problem to use this Mechagnomes to help me get more favorable conditions." Aaron and Vereesa explained.
"Oh?" Vereesa vaguely understood Aaron's idea. After the master craftsmen reached a consensus, Aaron added a heavy weight to his side, which would shake the other party's opinion and take the opportunity to propose some conditions that are more beneficial to him.
However, Vereesa still didn't understand something. Seeing that Aaron was about to go back to the lower cabin, he hurriedly asked, "Why did you call me out?"
"Oh yes, I almost forgot," Aaron patted his forehead with his free hand and said to Vereesa, "I have to remind you about something. It is best not to let these dwarves notice the bow behind your back. With the curiosity and enthusiasm for research of these guys, I am worried that they will bring it up to study it."
"That's right, actually I don't care." Vereesa touched Titans' Strike on the back and said, "By the way, if this bow is conducive to the implementation of your plan, you can also give Titans' Strike to them."
"That's not possible. This bow is yours, how can I use it as a bargaining chip?" Aaron shook his head and continued, "Besides, the things below are enough for dwarves to study. Adding another Titans' Strike may not necessarily be a good thing."
When Aaron thinks about it, if the mechanical creations in the lower cabin are ordinary products of the mechanical gnomes, Titan Strike can definitely be regarded as the embodiment of the highest technical ability of the mechanical gnomes. If the gnomes become interested in Titan Strike and give up research on other projects, if the progress is slowed down as a result, it will be more than worth the loss.
"This... this is!" After the dwarf craftsmen saw the Mechagnomes displayed by Aaron, more than half of the dwarfs were so excited that their hair stood on end. They all stepped forward with their short legs and came over, wanting to study this Mechagnomes.
When the dwarfs took a cursory look at Mechagnomes and prepared to study it more carefully, Aaron took advantage of his height to pick up Mechagnomes and said with a smile, "Gentlemen and ladies, shall we renegotiate the remuneration issue just now?"
After several dwarfs jumped up and down hoping to reach Mechagnomes in Aaron's hand but couldn't touch it at all, Mekkatorque met with his colleagues. After looking at each other for a while, Xu Ai looked at Aaron dejectedly. "Okay, Aaron, tell us your conditions. As long as they are not too excessive, we will accept them."
Aaron showed a smile and said, "Don't say that, great craftsman. In fact, my condition is very simple, that is..."
Aaron took a breath after saying this. After seeing the dwarf craftsmen scratching their heads, he said, "I hope to start a company with you."
