Chapter 338: The Wool of Science
"Well, this dish is really delicious. Don't look at Mr. Luo Zhen who lives in France, but he is a German. Now that Alice has mastered alchemy, she has completely given up cooking and soaked in the laboratory all day, if it weren't for your robot, it is estimated that the father and daughter would have solved the problem of eating directly in the laboratory with nutrients. ”
Rose Crystal used her small knife and fork to taste the French pigeon meat floss tower that Ryan brought for her, and by the way, she complained about the German concept of food. Ryan could only remain silent at this time, because the level of food in the United Kingdom, where he is now, is still below that of the Germans, and there is really not much to comment on.
They were now sitting in the Wanjie grocery store, and Xiaoqing had grown a table and two chairs. The two sat face to face at the table, Rose Crystal eating gracefully and quickly, while Ryan sat across from each other and watched the little doll gobble up the little doll while drinking sweetened milk.
"Well, now I kind of understand how Luo Zhen felt when he was a father. Ryan held the cup and thought that this was the first time in two lifetimes that he had felt this special. "It's really amazing to raise the next generation!"
Soon Rose Crystal had eaten the entire dish. After picking up a napkin and wiping her mouth, she began to report to Ryan on her recent work achievements, the first of which was about the last loot.
The loot in the vampire castle was split in two, and later, in order to express his gratitude to Mr. Luo Zhen for his teachings, Ryan gave him most of his share of the loot. However, although the amount left behind is small, it is all high-quality. For example, Rose Crystal found a small box of silver ingots of fairy sterling silver in the collation, with which it was possible to forge a weapon on the same level as the Gryffindor Sword.
In addition, there is a pile of precious blood and many extremely rare medicinal herbs, such as the heart of a dragon the size of a football, and the blood of a ream cow. These things are kept fresh by the vampires in a special way. These are rare treasures for every alchemist.
As the one who is now in charge of all of Ryan's wealth, Rose Crystal's final report is Ryan's greatest fortune now, the kingdom in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire.
The kingdom is now running smoothly, and the modern structure has been tempered by history, and when it is maintained by enough personnel, it is far more efficient than the rudimentary feudal feudal feudal system of the Middle Ages.
The major events reported are roughly as follows, Jon, the Hand of the King on the continent of Westeros?? Arryn is dead, and Eddard Stark, the guardian of the North, takes over. He sent an envoy on our fast boat to ask Meereen Bank to borrow money.
"I vetoed the proposal. Rose Crystal said, "Let's not mention that according to historical inertia, that place will be a mess." Let's just say that we are in the midst of rapid development, and it is better to invest this large amount of money casually than to throw it into that bottomless pit. Definitely accumulating wealth much faster than in a medieval state. ”
"Very well, you handled this well. Ryan praised, "But you must be polite when you refuse, if you really can't shirk it, you can provide some funds, but you must ask them to come up with enough collateral, such as the dock in King's Landing, so that we can open up the market." Rose Crystal nodded to note it.
"Second, we took out a large group of pirates who were trying to sneak up on Meereen, who had nearly three hundred ships. The supporters behind it were Taurus, Elia, Mataris, and Valantis, as our emancipation of the slave city-states cut off the city's source of slaves. What are we going to do next?"
"Isn't there a real red temple there, and why is it still attacking us?" Ryan asked.
"Most of the human affairs are still human, and True Red doesn't have the patience to manage so many things like us. Besides, Zhenhong thinks it's not good to kill so many people, and the temple forces can't control those slave traders who are blinded by money, especially the three city-states in the east basically don't have many temples, and this time there are many pirates who are pretending to be their navy. ”
"This is simple, to the Valantis sent the navy to blockade their port. Then work with the Hand of the Flame to purge the slavers of those slave traders. Don't worry about other free trade city-states, they're not an entity anyway. In short, teach them a lesson and let them join our trade community. ”
"What about the other three city-states?" asked Rose Crystal.
"The three slave city-states on the west side of Slave Bay have always been angry about our liberation of slaves, and this time they simply occupy it. Anyway, our people have been gnashing their teeth at those slave city-states, hoping to liberate their slave compatriots there. It just so happens that this quarter's grain tax is in place, and we can fight another battle to expand our power and control the whole of Slave Bay. Ryan decided on the next step.
Just have enough strength to run them over directly, and I ignored them because I was troublesome, but if they start attacking, then I must knock them down if I hit back, so that there won't be so many annoying guys in the future.
This victory is due to the superiority of technology. Soon after the tube was produced by the Amethyst City Electronics Factory, scholars soon came up with the idea of using electromagnetic waves to search for enemies. Ryan was shocked by their brains when he heard the report of the rose crystal, most of the time ago, people in the Middle Ages actually put forward the idea of radar after mastering knowledge, it can be seen that knowledge can indeed change a lot of things, ancient people just lack knowledge, but it does not mean that they are stupider than people now.
This is the case with the Meereen radar station that made meritorious contributions this time, and the synthetics brought over by Ryan only provided some suggestions, and the main design of the radar was all done by the natives. For example, the chief designer is a chief priest from Amethyst City, and Ryan found a magical place in the list, that is, the priests under Rose Crystal accounted for sixty percent of the list.
"My men know that I am a believer in knowledge, so now even priests have to pass exams for promotion. They don't need other work on a daily basis, so studying and doing studies have become their daily routine, so it's normal for them to appear more often on the list. That's how Rose Crystal explains.
I still think you can change the name of the church to Techno-God. Ryan didn't know how to complain. The next thing can be imagined, the radar detection range of 120km provided Meereen with seven hours of warning time, after which the more than 100 ships were easily sunk by more than 20 steam ironclads.
"Finally, there is migration. Rose Crystal flipped to the last page. "Our merchant ships also went to the north of the Great Wall to bring in a number of wild people, who were a good population supplement. ”
"Will they come?" Lane remembers in the original book that the savages would not have been willing to go to the territory of the so-called kneeling men in the South if it had not been for the attack of the aliens.
"Of course I do, the polar-like climate is not suitable for human life at all. We don't have the feudal hierarchy of the West here, which actually suits their appetite. Rose Crystal explained. "And they're very well managed, and they follow the rules even more than the so-called civilized people, who don't follow the rules in that harsh climate. ”
"Good, we did our best to bring in the wildlings. "Ryan made the last decision, so that the number of the last ghouls could be reduced while bringing in labor. "By the way, isn't there any objection from the Night's Watch?"
"They don't know at all. Rose Crystal explained, "After the radar was successfully developed, those ships had radars, which could completely avoid the fleet of the night watchman in the East China Sea, not to mention that because the savage shipbuilding technology was too bad to go to the far sea, the night watchman was only patrolling the near sea." Our ships will be able to get around them by going around the sea. ”
"By the way, the dragon eggs are about to hatch, and you have to go back and bring those dragon eggs with you. After researching with the group of wizards, I suggested that you should bring the dragon eggs to this world with a higher concentration of magic before hatching, so that the hatched dragons will have more room to grow in the future. After dealing with the government, Rose Crystal reminded as she took out a batch of magical materials she had recently collected.
"Now that world of A Song of Ice and Fire can already produce some low-level magic materials, but the speed of obtaining raw materials through trading, planting and gathering is still a bit slow, and as far as I know, the place where they hide their treasure can't stop us. Why don't we just grab a handful, but we have to work hard over there to build up a force from scratch and spend so many resources and energy. I know that many of the powerhouses' warehouses are full of treasures, and there are even a lot of keels in King's Landing's cellars. ”
"You're still too direct, it's quite like slaughtering a sheep and plucking it, and then it's gone. I'm fattening the sheep and even allowing them to multiply. That way I'll always have wool to pick. Ryan taught the Rose Crystal earnestly.
"I see. After tilting her head and thinking for a while, Rose Crystal sat up sharply and said with a small face. "Today I learned another piece of knowledge, thank you, brother. ”
