“Oh, what is it?”

Abel’s voice was somewhat disdainful. After all, he had thought for three days and three nights before finally coming to a conclusion and completing this tube-shaped design.

Meanwhile, this so-called Li was obviously a young man who seemed immature. How could he have a better design than him?

Then, Lan spoke indignantly.

“Since you need cold water to lower the temperature of the product, what if the water in your conduit becomes warm?”

Abel rolled his eyes.

“I’ll definitely pour the water out and replenish it with cold water. I can even use ice water.”

Lan’s lips curled into a smile, and she said word by word, “Then why don’t you pour in cold water while pouring out the already warm water?”

Abel scowled and spoke in an angry tone.

“How can this be possible…”

However, before he could finish his sentence, he realized that it was actually possible. He only needed to make two openings on the conduit, one to insert cold water and the other to remove the warm water.

Abel immediately realized that his design was indeed flawed.

However, according to what Lan said, this was only one of the most obvious differences. After all, she did not understand alchemy.

This made him both resentful and anxious to see the design.

Fortunately, Li Tianxiang wasn’t planning on hiding anything. He opened the blueprint and looked at Maxwell.

“I need such a tool. Is this okay for you?”

While Maxwell was rubbing his chin with his hands, Abel looked at the blueprint like a wild wolf that had been starving for three months.

“Did you design this?”

In front of a genius, a bad student would not dare to do anything rash. Thus, he could only wave his hands.

“Er, my teacher taught me.”

“A chemistry teacher is definitely a teacher. That’s right,” said Li Tianxiang to himself.

Meanwhile, Abel looked at him with a sentimental gaze, as if he was a young man looking at his lover.

“Does your teacher still accept apprentices? I can do odd jobs. I can serve tea and water. I can also pour tea for my teacher!”

Upon looking at Abel’s expression and hearing his words, Li Tianxiang had an illusion.

“I have performed meritorious service for XX. I have shed blood for XX. I want to acknowledge you as my master! I want to acknowledge you as my master!”

Li Tianxiang quickly coughed and held back his smile. Then, he spoke to Abel respectfully.

“Unfortunately, my teacher is no longer around.”

Well, at least he wasn’t living in the system. It wasn’t a curse. He hoped that the chemistry teacher wouldn’t beat him up.

Upon hearing this, Abel released his grip on Li Tianxiang and shook his head regretfully.

He seemed to be mumbling about why he didn’t become a disciple of this teacher or why he didn’t meet Li Tianxiang a few years ago.

Li Tianxiang was a little surprised, but he couldn’t say anything. He could only let his imagination run wild.

On the other side, Maxwell finally rolled up the blueprint.

Then, he nodded.

“I can do it, but this…”

He pointed to the section of the snake-shaped tube on the blueprint with a grim expression.

“It will be more troublesome, and I can’t guarantee the success rate. As for the losses during the production process, I will count them in the cost. Are you sure you want to do it?”

Since it wasn’t his money, Li Tianxiang nodded without hesitation. Maxwell immediately arranged for his assistant to start up the furnace. This time, he would do it personally.

Although he was only interested in the forging of alchemical equipment, he understood when he saw Abel’s reaction.

The value of this thing was definitely not low. If he could make it, he might be able to leave a deep mark in history.

Seeing that the discussion about had alchemical equipment had come to an end, Warren immediately walked up and asked.

“It takes a long time to fire the alchemical equipment in the furnace. Why don’t you take this time to see my brother’s market? Maybe he’ll have talents that fit your needs.”

Li Tianxiang nodded. As the slave market was rather dirty and messy, he let May and Lan stay in the market to shop.

They agreed to meet again at the Edison’s Workshop. Then, Li Tianxiang followed Warren to the place where he bought Sal last time.

In the slave market, the buzzing of flies, the moans of the injured slaves, and the cursing of the slave owners made Li Tianxiang uncomfortable.

“Eh? Isn’t this the gentleman from last time?”

Before Warren could introduce Li Tianxiang, the slovenly slave merchant leader saw him. After all, Li Tianxiang was his big customer.

He didn’t even notice Warren until he ran to Li Tianxiang and bowed.

“Mm? Why are you here?”

He didn’t sound very friendly.

“If the customer hadn’t said that he needed a butler, do you think I would have come?”

“Wait… Wait…”

Li Tianxiang quickly stepped in between the two and separated them. Then, he looked around in confusion.

“Aren’t you two brothers? Why do you look like enemies?”

“Actually, if you’re a stranger, our relationship should be quite good.”

This was Warren.

“After all, our voices aren’t competing with each other, but it’s different if we’re brothers.”

This was the leader of the slave merchants.

“I must make my business better than his.”

The two of them spoke at the same time. Li Tianxiang could almost see the sparks between them.

“Alright, alright. You guys can argue after you help me buy some manpower.”

As soon as he said this, the slave leader, Walt, slapped his forehead with a strange expression.

“By the way, Sir, did you tell someone to wait for you at my place?”

Zhang Ming rubbed his forehead as he recalled what he had encountered when he first transmigrated to this world. He had been delayed at Gordon’s place for too long and had almost forgotten about it.

“Yes, I’ll take them away after I’m done shopping.”

Walt’s eyes had sparkled when he heard Li Tianxiang say yes.

“He is like the flying squirrel of the back street, a bandit who can never be caught. However, he actually wants to be a serf at your farm? Sir, how many secrets do you have?”

Even though Li Tianxiang knew that Walt had other motives, he still felt quite pleased when he listened to Walt’s flattery.

“If you can capture more slaves that are similar to him, you can sell them to me. I will only charge 30% of the transaction fee and guarantee that the selling price will be the highest in the Alliance.”

Li Tianxiang almost couldn’t hold back the smile on his face. It had to be known that the slave trade on Earth was not only unpardonable, but it was also a sin that was boycotted by the world. Now, someone actually wanted him to be a slave catcher.

However, Li Tianxiang shook his head firmly.

“I’m only looking for you to bring in talents for me. I hate slave trade from the roots.”

Upon hearing this, Walt looked a little embarrassed. Then, a slender hand rested on Li Tianxiang’s shoulder.

“Do you really hate this kind of business?”
