January is the coldest season in the Emerald City, and both slaves and nobles are nested in their houses early. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the past, the arrogant nobles and lords also agreed to allow the slaves to leave their dilapidated wooden sheds and sleep in relatively warm and sturdy livestock sheds in the face of the bitter cold.

Therefore, the nobles of the Emerald City regard the act of protecting their labor force as a good deed, and are satisfied and proud of their actions, there is no way, who makes them noble and great nobles.

So don't be surprised to see a dozen shivering slaves around a cow in the slave quarters of the Emerald City, or to see a child sleeping with a pig in the pigsty, because you are seeing the kindness of the old men of the Emerald City.

It was at this time that the airship "Radiance of the Republic" arrived in the Emerald City.

Li Fan stood in the headquarters of the "Zhonghua Group" that he named himself, looking up at the sky, the cold wind was howling, and the huge airship was constantly shaking in the air, and it was undoubtedly very difficult to land accurately in this weather.

Nuwa stood in front of the rudder in the pod with a serious face, and behind her were Liu Han and other artificial engines desperately stepping on a powered bicycle to power the airship.

The dog took the place of Li Fan, and while determining the exact position, he depressurized the buoyancy airbag.

"The younger brother ticked the tock....... (Nuwa, I think you should do this)"

Nuwa still stared into the distance expressionlessly, turning the rudder constantly

"Why"

"Didi-d-da-da......... (Because this damn airbag is his hydrogen, hydrogen!Do you know what hydrogen is?H2!It can burn and explode!As long as there is a little spark in my body, me, you, and your lovely subordinates, plus the boss's life-root machine will all have to be played!)"

Nuwa turned her head expressionlessly, her small and round mouth pursed into a mellow O-shape, and then laughed in an emotionless flat tone

"Ho Ho ......."

The dog was furious, "Didi, Didi, Didi!" (What do you mean by this!)"

Nuwa turned her face, and her dark eyes seemed to have countless data streams quickly brushed, and she said softly

"If you're not hurrying, the chief may really scrap you...."

The dog was frightened, and thinking of his unscrupulous master, he could only speed up his movements in frustration.

Under Nuwa's precise operation, the "Radiance of the Republic" finally slowly stopped in the hangar with a hole in the ceiling, and the roof cleverly designed by Pei Yuming was reassembled into an airship after the airship was stabilized by everyone.

The security team that had been waiting on the side for a long time rushed up to surround the hangar, and Liu Han and Lin Hai ignored their already exhausted bodies and took a few people to carefully unload the machine tool.

It wasn't until the machine tool was moved into the safest and most hidden underground warehouse of the entire building that Li Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the people who wanted to say something, Li Fan waved his hand solemnly

"Lao Liu, Lao Lin, you go back and have a good rest, the day after tomorrow, several other ministers will also come over, and then we will have a second meeting!"

"Yes!" Liu Han, Lin Hai, and the other personnel who came down from the airship all stood up as if they were launched, and gave a straight and standard military salute to Li Fan.

It frightened the unprepared Li Fan, and he looked back at Nuwa, who looked up at the sky with an innocent and pure face.

Li Fan waved his hand helplessly

"Alright, let's go......"

...............

Two days later, several ministers who had set off from Yangcun and the base respectively before finally arrived at the headquarters of the Zhonghua Group not far from the Emerald City.

Li Fan's gaze swept over these faces that could be said to be young and a little excessive, compared with when they were driven to the shelves by themselves a year ago, their faces were much less immature, more mature and confident.

After nodding slightly with Yao Ziqiang, Li Fan cleared his throat and began to speak

"In the past year, everyone has done a very good job, Minister Sun Mancang has successfully doubled the grain output, and now he has not only exceeded the original target by 50%, but also developed many crops and added a lot of new varieties to everyone's food!

Minister Sun, hard work!"

In the warm applause of everyone, Sun Mancang's back molars grinned, touched his head and smiled embarrassedly, shouting "modest, modest....." with the new words he had just learned

After Pei Yuming applauded, he hurriedly looked at the village chief with expectant eyes, and sure enough, he was not disappointed, Li Fan praised him next, but finally told him that he must pay attention to the quality of the project and not appear in the tofu scum project.

Thanks to the bumper harvest of soybeans, tofu has reappeared on everyone's table, as the oldest tofu eating empire, the Xia people naturally re-learned their natural skills, and played the tofu as a soy product.

Not only did old tofu and tender tofu appear, but even soy milk, bean dregs cake, tofu brain, tofu flower, and when Li Fan was dumbfounded, in the sheep village with a population of less than 1,000, there was actually a dispute over sweet and salty tofu brains!

Yes, Pei Yuming also understood the meaning of the tofu slag project, and secretly reminded himself in his heart that in order to catch up with the construction deadline recently, he was indeed trying to take shortcuts, and he should pay more attention in the future.

Next, Li Fan praised the remaining ministers one by one, and even Thor, who felt that he had done nothing because of the lack of materials, was praised for his meritorious work in assisting in the construction of the airship "Glory of the Republic".

He almost doesn't know the east, west, north and south!

It was only at this point that the meeting finally got to the point.

The ministers also knew that the next thing was an important moment to determine the future development, and they couldn't help but sit up straight and didn't dare to miss a word.

After Li Fan pondered for a while, he first asked Thor, who was in charge of the industrial department

"How much iron and iron ore has been sent from the Emerald City?"

Old Thor was excited, hurriedly flipped through his small notebook, and said loudly

"Because we have a lot of money, at present, all the iron ore and pig iron in the Emerald City have been concentrated in the warehouse, according to the hint you gave the village chief, it is about 50 tons, and we have monopolized the iron smelting and blacksmith shop business in the Emerald City.

But... Those nobles in the Emerald City alone can't use much iron at all, and some nobles even kitchen knives are made of bones or stone chips, so there are still more than forty tons left in the warehouse. ”

Li Fan said differently

"So many?"

According to his estimates, if you think that in a city like Emerald City, where the penetration rate of iron is less than 2 percent, it would be good to have a reserve of 10 tons of iron, but it can actually make 50 tons! Wouldn't there be a lot of steam engines?

Even.... Can you also try to build the original smoothbore gun?
