Chapter 396: Good News and Bad News

Compared with the meticulous and meticulous requirements for the construction of warships, the construction standards for civilian-grade mining ships have been lowered too much, and there is nothing to say about the technical difficulty.

In general, the wide-body type of the shallow-water gunboat was borrowed to enhance the stability and payload of the mining ship, and then the weapons and armor parts were removed, and the hard sails were adopted to greatly reduce the deck area, and the first mining ship was launched into service countless steps faster than the earlier construction line.

"Hey, the steam engine is starting to ignite!"

With the shout of the bearded captain, the ignition of the steam engine furnace placed on the deck of the mining ship was stuffed into a large amount of oily wood, although the power is not high and can only maintain a limited power output, there is still a long way to go from practical use in the goal of driving the ship, but it is more than enough to drive the excavator bucket on the ship.

The people present watched intently as the strange-looking metal monster continued to spew out white water vapor and gray smoke, and slowly marched all the way to the shallow sea beach near the coast, the huge steel hydraulically driven bucket dug deep down and then slowly lifted, and the material mixed with earth and sand was poured onto the deck by the bucket that rotated 180 degrees. When they boarded, there was a cheer, and this demonstration was enough to prove that the mining ship initially had practical value.

"Very good performance, a qiΔ“ as I expected."

Standing up from Mazha and taking the lead in applauding, Luo Zhengdao's speech made the subordinates involved in the mining ship project rejoice, indicating that they are not far from the day of promotion and wealth. At this time, the consul Kofi Ingres followed and said:

"Ahh Your Majesty, your plan is perfect. ”

Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao continued to maintain a warm smile, lowered his voice and said:

"Perfect, you say? Hmph, the world is never perfect, and it would be a big mistake to think so. ”

Not knowing what he had said wrong, the archon had to take two steps back and say nothing to hide his gaffe

Putting aside the almost unsolvable curse of the desolate god for the time being, the various troubles that need to be dealt with by Luo Zhengdao at the moment are also complicated, especially in the matter of running the country, which is basically a situation every day, and never the same. Even though he tried his best to plug holes everywhere, the foundation of his starting family was thin and the stalls he spread out were too big, so it was difficult to guarantee that he would not make any mistakes for a while.

To build a country, we first need a population, and without a population, there is no need to talk about anything, and the people can live without a country, but a country is finished without the people, so the people must not have anything to do. This truth is so simple, but some people just reverse the relationship between cause and effect, and turn the people into beings who are dependent on the state.

As the population increases, social services and more food and necessities are needed to meet daily needs, and there is no shortcut to the growing food shortage, and the problem of food can only be solved by prioritizing the development of agriculture and fisheries. If the geographical location is not close to the sea, the fishery will undoubtedly be abolished first, if the growth potential of local agricultural output is limited, we can only focus on the development of foreign trade to supplement imports, and there is no money to carry out international trade, so we have to go back to build industry, make best-selling fist products for export money, and maintain the operation of the industrial system needs a large number of educated people as a basis.

If this series of problems is studied deeply, it is equivalent to going around in a circle and returning to the original point, which is tantamount to an infinite circulation mode of adding more water and more water, and the challenge difficulty coefficient is 9.0!

The curse of the desolate god is slowly but unswervingly encroaching on Luo Zhengdao's life, in addition to the possibility of rushing to the doctor to make a wish on the evidence of the overlord, it has also become a thorny problem to consider his own aftermath in a timely manner, people are going to die after all, and Luo Zhengdao does not have to be taboo to talk about it. In recent years, as many as dozens of harem women of various ethnic groups have given birth to a total of seven children for him, which is indeed not a high yield, and will equal the gourd baby. Only the daughter of Vina Dubov Tiduo has been particularly valued by Luo Zhengdao, and the other children belong to the product of political marriage, which is completely free-range, and usually does not even have many opportunities to meet with her father, so you can only talk about family affection or something.

In addition to the busy schedule of official business, this is also Luo Zhengdao's own deliberate choice, to put it ugly, he kicked his legs on the front foot, and these children on the back foot will immediately become the puppets of the behind-the-scenes financiers.

Wrestling with a rival at the level of a great power, this is a difficult technical job of fighting wits and courage, Luo Zhengdao didn't dare to say that he could win by himself when he was alive, not to mention that he was already lying in a coffin? If he hoped for a miracle to save his children, this wish was much beyond his actual ability, and he had already seen through the stakes, Luo Zhengdao felt that instead of letting himself be unable to close his eyes and swallow his last breath when he was dying, it was better to give up those unrealistic fantasies from the beginning, and those children were directly given up by him.

The youngest daughter Tiduo is carefully cared for by her mother Vena, and it is a big deal that Luo Zhengdao will arrange some back-ups, which can basically ensure that she is exempted from the risk factors she may encounter, and it is not a problem to live incognito safely. The rest of the children may not even be able to rely on their own mothers, what is their fate and future, Luo Zhengdao has neither the heart nor the power to care, it all depends on their own creation!

"Huhuhuhu...... Was that a dream? ”

Suddenly woke up from sleep, Luo Zhengdao, who was already sweating profusely at some point, took off his soaked pajamas and threw them on the ground, he got up and sat on the edge of the bed, gasping slightly to recall what he saw and heard in the dream. It was so real that he couldn't tell if it was a dream, or ...... Is it some kind of foresight of the future? It was an extremely macro picture, two forces that devoured each other, one was order and the other was chaos, and it was clear that over time, the forces representing order continued to weaken and the forces representing chaos continued to grow, and eventually the whole world returned to a state of chaos that was black and white.

After sitting suspiciously for a long time, Luo Zhengdao muttered:

"This is a hint of the arrival of heat death, the guide who made the magic card master and Aragami completely turn their faces. Fire? ”

As a traverser with the name of glory, greatness and correctness, Luo Zhengdao himself is not a genius, not even a scholar, just an ordinary person who can be seen casually on the side of the road. Despite this, he always has a little bit of mortal-level wisdom, and if he can't think of clues when he gets such an obvious hint, he can only choose between congenital brain damage and acquired Alzheimer's disease as an excuse to exonerate responsibility.

"Paralyzed, could it be that the dying can foresee the future? Heat death won't come so quickly! I don't think there's a big problem in this world! ”

Countless thoughts came and went in Luo Zhengdao's mind, and it made him uneasy for a while, the trouble of spreading the curse of the desolate god was enough to give people a headache, so don't try too hard, and then have an updated version of the doomsday copy!

"ι™›xiΓ ! ι™›xiΓ ! Ms. Dubov is back, and she hopes to see you immediately. ”

At this time, the shouts of the attendant officer came from outside the bedroom door, according to the rules, there was no order, and the subordinates were not allowed to enter the bedroom, especially if there was no emergency, so the attendant officer could only shout outside, and could not step into Luo Zhengdao's room casually.

didn't have time to change clothes, Luo Zhengdao, who was wearing pajamas, put on a cloak and walked out of the bedroom, he couldn't hide his worry, he didn't say anything, he only gestured to the attendant officer, and then led a few people through the corridor and the entrance hall, and went out of the palace through the side door to get into the carriage.

Seeing each other again after a long time, even if there are thousands of words, I don't know where to start, Luo Zhengdao swallowed back when he came to his mouth, and said with a smile indifferently:

"Vina, are you alright? You seem to have lost weight. ”

Hearing this, the half-elf beauty retreated from the others, took Luo Zhengdao's hands, and said in a low tone:

"Hear, Will, this time the situation is critical, worse than the worst we expected. I've heard a little from the Waste Giant, and though it's not complete, I know how terrible it is. ”

Hearing this, there was more and more discomfort in his back, Luo Zhengdao frowned, and asked rhetorically:

"Say it! What the hell is going on? ”

"The Giants, the Waste Giants, and the Drow Elves are ready to assemble a coalition to destroy you."

As soon as he heard this, Luo Zhengdao's eyes widened in surprise, he reached out and pulled his hair, looking confused and confused, what is this! Why did these unrelated forces come to kill him? After calming down a little, Luo Zhengdao continued to ask:

"What is the purpose of instigating such a large-scale war operation?"

The haggard Vena Dubov reached out and stroked Luo Zhengdao's cheek and said:

"I'm sorry, I couldn't find out, I believe the original plan was started by Drow."

Luo Zhengdao, who was in a complicated mood, nodded and said:

"Well, I sent Zora to the Dark Regions, and I haven't heard from him for a long time, so maybe I should wait for him to come back."

"No, it won't be too late. Will, we've got to take the initiative. ”

The harsh reality before us is obvious, Vina Dubov knows far more than she is willing to sue SΓΉ Luo Zhengdao, but she must have her own reasons for not wanting to say it. Whether it is public or private, it is not easy to force her, and this kind of thing is to harm herself, Luo Zhengdao didn't think she could do it, so he could only smile bitterly and nodded

The cool breeze of the morning blew into the room through the window, bringing the aroma of the flowers and plants in the courtyard and the moisture of the dewdrops, and the light purple silk curtains swayed slightly with the wind, like a fluttering gorgeous skirt, which looked so tranquil and beautiful.

"Is Zola back?"

Luo Zhengdao, who was worried, had no intention of appreciating the beginning of this beautiful day, and asked the attendant officer who came in to deliver the text, and the other party finally gave a negative reply this time that was different from many times earlier, and said:

"His Excellency Hegel has just arrived in Hong Kong in the early hours of the morning, are you going to receive him now? ι™›xiΓ ! ”

Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao's spirit was lifted, and he said eagerly:

"Hurry up, send someone to inform him to come to me."
