At the same time that Jamaiti's caravan had set up camp outside Anhua City, Jamat and the others had also completed the registration procedures for staying at the Anhua City Guest House.
Yi Xingchen didn't know about a caravan coming to Anhua City, because all his focus was on the hoverboard in his hand. He took back a piece of the finished hoverboard, and was in the hall of the castle guard mansion at this time, carrying out the actual yàn.
Since Yi Xingchen handed over Morat's drawings to the Alchemy Research Institute, the alchemists of the Alchemy Research Institute began to work intensively and devote themselves to research under Morat's guidance. In the meantime, there were many failures, and they tried again, improved and adjusted, and finally, after more than a month, an alloy suspension plate with a thickness of five centimeters, a length of 50 centimeters, and a width of 20 centimeters was developed.
At this moment, the hoverboard in Yi Xingchen's hand.
Yi Xingchen watched it for a long time, originally wanting to figure out the formation structure in this alloy suspension plate, but after trying a few times, he still couldn't find a way, so he could only give up temporarily.
However, the incomprehension is not the most important thing, as long as the alloy suspension plate can be suspended, it is considered a success.
Chekov, the second-level alchemist of the research institute, is the main person in charge of the hoverboard project, and he will always stand quietly beside Yi Xingchen, waiting for Yi Xingchen to review the newly researched hoverboard, waiting for Yi Xingchen's dispatch at any time, or waiting to explain the research project of the hoverboard.
Seeing Yi Xingchen flip through the hoverboard for a while, Chekov weighed the timing, and then reported the progress of the project research to Yi Xingchen: "Your Majesty, we have completed the main part of the project, and the next step is to enter the testing stage, we will first test the load capacity and suspension height of the hoverboard." ”
Yi Xingchen listened to Chekov's report and nodded with satisfaction. Anyway, he watched it for a long time, but he didn't completely understand the formation of the hoverboard, so he just let them finish the test of the hoverboard first.
"Okay, you can test it. Yi Xingchen said as he handed the hoverboard to Chekov and motioned for him to leave first to complete the project.
Chekov returned to the center of the hall with the hoverboard and instructed his subordinates to prepare a large number of metal objects for testing.
After all the materials were ready, Chekov and his subordinates immediately began to test the load capacity and levitation height of the hoverboard.
After several repeated tests, Chekov finally came up with a relatively stable number jù result.
"The levitating height of the hoverboard, ignoring the influence of the ground height, the maximum actual height from the ground is one meter, and the carrying capacity of the hoverboard can be lighter than three hundred kilograms of goods. Due to the area of the hoverboard, it is not possible to test weights of more than three hundred kilograms for the time being. ”
About an hour later, Chekov and his subordinates repeatedly confirmed the test results, and then came to report to Yi Xingchen again. He handed the record book in his hand to Yi Xingchen and said, "Your Majesty, after testing and inspection, this test number is obtained." As for the suspension height of the hoverboard, only the ground test can be completed at present, and the suspension height on the water surface cannot be tested for the time being. ”
Yi Xingchen took the record book, but did not open it, in fact, he also wanted to know the test results of the hoverboard immediately, so he had been staring at the whole process of the test just now, so he was naturally not in a hurry to see the record results of the record book, he asked directly: "Will this hoverboard be suspended all the time, does it need energy to maintain?"
Although the hoverboard was not invented by Chekov, he is one of the manufacturers who has been strictly following up according to Morat's research drawings and the main person in charge of the entire project, so he naturally knows the functional characteristics of the hoverboard and so on. Therefore, hearing Yi Xingchen's question, Chekov was able to immediately give an extremely detailed answer: "Although the formation of the suspension plate is embedded in the alloy plate, we have a movable valve that can extract the formation eye and invalidate the suspension function of the suspension plate. To activate the hovering plate, you need energy tablets made of energy crystals, and each energy tablet can maintain a suspension force for a month. ”
"Very good!" Yi Xingchen nodded, he was very satisfied with this number, "Do you still have spare plates, or can you continue to make hoverboards, are there enough materials?"
"We made a total of two hoverboards, just in case, even if one of them didn't guarantee the stability of the test, and the other one was used as a backup. The production of the hoverboard is actually not difficult, and thanks to the guidance of Master Morat, first-level alchemists can copy the hoverboard. Chekov said.
Knowing that the preparation of the hoverboard was not complicated, Yi Xingchen's face suddenly appeared with joy, and he immediately said, "Okay, I need more hoverboards." How many hoverboards do you expect to make in a month?"
"Your Majesty, there are a total of ten alchemists in the suspended plate development team that has been established, and with our current strength, it is estimated that we can make thirty-five suspended plates in a month. Chekov bowed his head and made a slight estimate, and then said a more confident, but slightly conservative answer, after speaking, even he himself felt a little embarrassed, this estimate of the yield, is indeed so low that people are inevitably ashamed.
But Yi Xingchen didn't care much about the problem of low output, in fact, the hoverboard was not the only item with high value but low output on his hand, and it was rare and expensive, Yi Xingchen didn't think that the shortage of supply would be a problem. Besides, it really doesn't matter if the amount of zuò is small at the beginning, and it can be slowly increased later. Therefore, Yi Xingchen's focus is actually on the fact that the Xinghua Empire can raise another industry, which is already something to be happy about.
"Okay, you have to improve the stability of the hoverboard, there can be no problems, and the output will gradually increase. Yi Xingchen said.
After the problem of the hoverboard was determined, he got Yi Xingchen's instructions, and Chekov didn't stay too long, so he continued to work on the hoverboard.
At this time, Wei Siming came in and reported to Yi Xingchen that there was a caravan in Anhua City, and reported his arrangements for the caravan to Yi Xingchen: the leader of the caravan had moved into the inner city, and the rest of the team members were placed outside the inner city of Anhua City to stay overnight. In the end, Wei Siming did not forget to tell Yi Xingchen that this caravan also bought a lot of goods from Anhua City.
The fact that there are people patronizing the goods of Anhua City is of course another good news. Hearing the good things, Yi Xingchen was in a wonderful mood, and as soon as he was interested, he gave Wei Siming an idea to promote business.
Yi Xingchen's idea is to let Wei Siming entertain Jamaiti and try to make Jamaiti's caravan develop into a loyal caravan in Anhua City, so that this caravan, from now on, as long as the merchants pass here, will take the initiative to go to Anhua City, and Anhua City can provide more oriental specialties. Of course, as long as the caravans of Jamaiti showed their sincerity to Anhua City, Anhua City would naturally give some special concessions in turn. For example, Anhua City can provide preferential prices for Jamaitian caravans, and in addition, Anhua City can also promise Jamaiti caravans that if they can bring other caravans of more than 200 people to Anhua City, Anhua City is willing to return ten gold coins to them, and the more caravans they bring, the more they will return.
Wei Siming left the city guard mansion and truthfully told Yi Xingchen's decision to sù Jamaiti.
There was nothing special to deal with, so Yi Xingchen returned to Blue Mercury Xinghua Island and contacted Lin Wei, the manager of Huaguo Xinghua Trading, because he wanted to customize and buy a thruster.
He asked this thruster to have the necessary power, and in addition, Yi Xingchen also found someone to design a suspension motorboat. Things went smoothly, and only a few days later, Yi Xingchen's customized items were delivered to Xinghua Island through guò air express.
Yi Xingchen was going to hand over the production of the levitating motorboat to the Xinghua City Alchemy Research Institute to complete. Therefore, Yi Xingchen summoned Chekov again, handed over the design drawings of the hovering motorboat to Chekov, and described to Chekov the hovering motorboat in his mind. According to his understanding of the levitation motorboat, Yi Xingchen specially explained to Chekov some points that he needed Chekov to pay attention to.
"Control the speed, the maximum speed can not exceed 300 kilometers per hour, to avoid too high speed will be easy to lose control;
When making a motorboat, it is necessary to pay attention to the selection of the best materials, which must be able to effectively protect the safety of the driver, and at the same time be equipped with a protective cover to prevent collision, explosion, etc., as well as increase the safety belt to ensure that the driver will not accidentally leave the motorcycle;
Other performance should also be improved to ensure the comfort of driving, minimize the impact of vibration during riding, and keep silent ......"
Yi Xingchen's requirements were indeed very detailed, and Chekov was on the side, holding a pen, recording very carefully, not daring to omit the slightest, and even, in fact, Chekov was worried that his records would be wrong and missing, and he put a voice recorder in his jacket pocket to record all Yi Xingchen's requirements, so that he could check the content of the notes one by one later.
"If you are short of materials, then send a report, and I will give you the materials as soon as possible, and will not delay your research and practice, is there any problem?" Yi Xingchen said to Chekov.
"Your Majesty, we're fine!" Chekov said.
Yi Xingchen thought for a while and said, "Very good! I'll leave it to you at this time." ”
"Please rest assured!" Chekov assured Yi Xingchen.
Looking at Chekov, who was on the side while continuing to wait and check the records, Yi Xingchen thought about it carefully again to see if there was anything else that needed to be explained to Chekov and not mentioned.
"By the way, how about Morat's watch?" Yi Xingchen suddenly thought of the fifth-level professional, so he asked in particular.
Hearing Yi Xingchen mention Morat, Chekov looked up from his notes, and his eyes were full of admiration and admiration, and his tone seemed to be the excitement of a little fan: "He is a benevolent master, knows everything, answers everything, is very patient with everyone, and does not have a little arrogance, and he is teaching us the knowledge he has mastered, and he is a person of noble character." Now, with his help, there are many alchemists in the Alchemy Research Institute, and there are different levels of improvement in the realm, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the promotion can be loosened. ”
Yi Xingchen was obviously happy to see this situation, and nodded to express satisfaction. Originally, he was worried that these old country professionals would not be able to adapt to the new empire, but now not only does he not need to worry about this, but it has been proved that the psychological situation of these old country professionals is even better than he imagined.
According to the information that Yi Xingchen has, these professionals may have experienced long-term imprisonment, they do not have any high-minded vices, and each of them cherishes their hard-won freedom.
Another month passed, and Wei Zhouquan's Mountain Eagle Special Combat Team sent another group of people.
It's just that the number of these people is not large, only five or six hundred.
The city of Anhua is being built at a faster pace, the first houses in the inner city are being built, and the outer city walls have been formed. The defensive circle of Anhua City is considered to have been repaired. The project of outer defense is only one of digging moats and arranging city defense equipment on the city walls. These miscellaneous things, Yi Xingchen handed over to Wei Siming, the city guard of Anhua City, and he didn't pay attention to them anymore. The rest of the things that can make Yi Xingchen pay attention to are Lou Lancheng in Lou Lan Country. For Avastar, this is a potential threat, and it is the right thing to remove or weaken as soon as possible.
In the palace study, Yi Xingchen summoned all the cabinet ministers.
"The military headquarters of the empire has prepared a second-class legion with three thousand soldiers. War Secretary Allen said.
In order to standardize the national army, the Xinghua Empire deliberately divided the national army into ranks. The first-class corps, all soldiers are equipped with submachine guns, and at the same time are equipped with several rocket artillery soldiers, a small number of crystal cannons, a battalion of mortars, and grenades, mines, and bullets are given priority. The Royal Guard, that is, the first regiment, and the second regiment, three-quarters of the soldiers are equipped with semi-automatic rifles, a quarter are equipped with submachine guns, and a battalion of mortars. The second-level corps is the main corps and dominates foreign wars, while the third-level corps is equipped with at least half of the soldiers with semi-automatic rifles, the rest with bows and crossbows, and more than 20 mortars. The third-level legion is a reserve corps, whose main task is to maintain domestic order and can support foreign wars at any time. The fourth-level regiment is mainly equipped with cold weapons, bows and crossbows, a small number of semi-automatic rifles, and the officer rank can be equipped with pistols and other weapons. The fourth-class legion, which belongs to the militia corps, is tasked with continuous training and training of qualified soldiers to enrich the second- and third-class legions. Sometimes, they also have to assist domestic detectives and maintain law and order.
"According to the investigation of the Intelligence Bureau, the army of Lou Lan Country has at least 20,000 soldiers. Of these, at least half were knights. The strength is not weak. However, most of their troops are not in Lou Lan City. Instead, it was in a military village not far from Lou Lan City. Brian said.
