Fang Xiaoyu, who was lying on the bed, began to systematically sort out the harvest of this outing, when he was on the ship, when Fang Xiaoyu knew that Xiaofeng Dao could set up a remote teleportation point, he immediately decided to let Xiaofeng set up connection points in the warehouse of Wu Yu's shop in Pools Harbor of the Saar Empire and in the bedroom of Beretta Giant Hammer, the leader of the dwarves in the barren hills of the Savage Continent, fortunately, the connection point was only set up to let Xiaofeng produce two special badges as a connecting signal source, as long as the badge was hung in the warehouse of the actual construction of Lu, it could be used.

But even so, it was very difficult to produce badges for the first time, Fang Xiaoyu didn't expect it to be so exaggerated, Xiaofeng actually locked up all external contacts, and it wasn't until Huadongxing talked to him that Xiaofeng informed him that the production of the connection point badge was completed and the chip function was restored, so frightened that Fang Xiaoyu swore that he would never dare to test new functions casually in the future.

The last time I was only halfway through it and was interrupted by Elena, and then I didn't have time to check it because of the chip lock, and now Fang Xiaoyu really wants to see how much he has gained in the Western Continent. When Fang Xiaoyu was in the Western Continent, the scanning function was turned on all day, and all the books in Europe and the secret techniques and processes of various factories, as well as the various equipment structures in those factories were all scanned and recorded by Xiao Feng. Fang Xiaoyu found that as long as Xiao Feng's search range was large enough, there were no new techniques in this world that could be kept secret from him.

Fang Xiaoyu entered the chip, and he came to the hall again, and the hall was still the same, but the suspended screen was bigger. Fang Xiaoyu walked closer and asked Xiao Fengdao, "Did we find anything good in the Western Continent?" Xiao Feng said: "There are not many useful things, you must know that although there are many people in the Western Continent who study new techniques, but without correct guidance and professional vision, 99% of such new techniques are useless." ”

Fang Xiaoyu nodded and said, "I also understand this, but it is the technique that is being used in the Western Continent now, and many of them are also not available to us." Xiao Feng said: "Yes, at least I have added open-hearth steelmaking, reciprocating steam engines and vertical boilers, steam engine-driven spinning machines, looms, and more than a dozen machine tools to my database. Fang Xiaoyu said: "There are really a lot of good things, and now we need to readjust the development projects of heavy industry." ”

Fang Xiaoyu said and opened the manufacturing class of the heavy industry technology tree, the reciprocating steam engine has been lit, but this kind of steam engine is still a low-pressure steam engine, and the power is not large, Fang Xiaoyu clicked on the research option of a single expansion high-pressure steam engine.

The boiler was lit up with a horizontal boiler, and Fang Xiaoyu also began to study the next fire bucket boiler. The points required for the fire barrel boiler are not high, only three thousand points, which is not much compared to Fang Xiaoyu's current total of forty thousand, but the steam engine is much higher, and it actually needs seven thousand points.

These two research projects alone already occupy 10,000 research points. In addition to these two most important power systems, Fang Xiaoyu selected eleven other industrial machinery powered by steam engines in one go, occupying 23,000 research points.

In the blink of an eye, the remaining research points in Fang Xiaoyu's hands are only 7,000 points, converter steelmaking is a must, the efficiency of the open-hearth furnace is too low, if the open-hearth furnace is used now, it will be too troublesome to transform in the future, so that the 5,000 points will be gone.

The last 2,000 square Xiaoyu all devoted himself to agricultural science and technology research on agriculture and animal husbandry, focusing on pigs and meat and egg chickens, as well as feed preparation. For the slow meat of beef and mutton, Fang Xiaoyu plans to postpone it for a while, after all, now we have to start with the most advantageous, compared to the pork that is slaughtered quickly and has a lot of meat, although cattle and sheep have the advantage of milk production, they are much worse in meat production speed and reproduction speed.

The reason why Fang Xiaoyu wants to study these is because he is going to start animal husbandry, the corn produced in the first two years, Sun Huaizong only used it to breed some of the original livestock of the Lanfang Empire, although the effect after using corn is very good, not only fat quickly, but also saving food, but Fang Xiaoyu is still not satisfied, he always thinks that if he wants to do it, he must do it well, not to mention that he has such good conditions.

The next morning, Fang Xiaoyu went into the city early in the morning to report to the staff headquarters. When he came to the door of the General Staff, before Fang Xiaoyu entered the door, he saw that Marshal Xia Jun's carriage also happened to be in front of the gate of the General Staff. Xia Ziqing, who had just been next time, was surprised: "Xiaoyu, you're back." Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "Yes, I came back to report." Marshal Xia Jun, who got out of the car later, was not so affectionate, he snorted and said, "I remember that you only took eighteen months of leave, but now it is almost thirty months." ”

"Uh." Fang Xiaoyu was speechless, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. "Follow me." Marshal Xia Jun greeted and walked into the gate of the staff headquarters first, and Fang Xiaoyu had to follow cautiously. Walking into the hall, the grandfather who was sitting at his desk glanced at him, smiled slightly, and did not speak. Marshal Xiahou Feng on the other side stood up and said, "Xiao Yu, when did you come back?" ”

Fang Xiaoyu smiled reluctantly with a bitter face: "I just came back yesterday, and I came to report today." Xiahou Feng said: "I heard that you and my cousin have partnered to do a lot of business." Fang Xiaoyu was stunned: "Who is Marshal Xiahou's cousin?" Xiahou Feng said: "It's the commander of the navy, Xiahou Min." ”

Fang Xiaoyu suddenly realized: "Oh, it's Marshal Xiahou Min." Originally, I planned to go to sea from Quanzhou Port, but Marshal Xiahou Min found me and wanted to partner with me, so I agreed. Xiahou Feng sighed: "My cousin has a good vision, since I started doing business with you, the navy is now fat." Even the emperor paid attention to it, and asked the navy to pay 5 million yuan a year to subsidize the army on the condition that his cousin did not need to declare that he would build his own warship. Unexpectedly, my cousin agreed without blinking an eye. ”

Xiahou Feng approached Fang Xiaoyu and said, "What kind of business have you done with my cousin, why is he so rich?" Fang Xiaoyu spread his hands and said, "This is the responsibility of my subordinates, I don't know." But I think Marshal Xiahou Min used frigates to escort merchant ships to make a lot of money, which has nothing to do with me. Xiahou Feng pursed his lips and said with disdain: "Just his head, if it weren't for the idea you gave him, I wouldn't believe he would be able to figure it out by himself." Xiahou Feng and Fang Xiaoyu chatted hotly, without the slightest marshal's shelf.

Marshal Xia Jun on the side coughed and said, "Okay, no matter how much Fang Xiaoyu has done to the country, it can't cover up the problem of his leave extension." This is a very serious problem in the military, do you know it? Fang Xiaoyu looked at Marshal Xia Jun puzzled, he didn't understand why he would hold on to his little mistakes, was it because he had gone too far recently, he wanted to beat himself.

Although he couldn't figure it out, Fang Xiaoyu didn't dare to disobey him, after all, he was his future grandson-in-law, and if he wanted to marry someone's two precious granddaughters, he still had to be more obedient, not to mention that Marshal Xia Jun had always been more protective of himself.

Fang Xiaoyu didn't know what to do, so he had to vaguely agree, and Marshal Xia Jun said again: "Although you know that you are wrong, you also need to be punished." As of today, you have been removed from the General Staff and sent to the garrison battalion to serve and demoted to lieutenant colonel to see what will happen. ”

Hearing that Xia Jun's punishment was so severe, Xiahou Feng, who had a good relationship with Fang Xiaoyu, pleaded: "Although Fang Xiaoyu is at fault, he has also made meritorious contributions to the empire and solved the military spending problem for the imperial navy, so I don't think there is a need to demote this position." Marshal Xia Jun nodded and said, "Okay, I won't be demoted, but you will go to the garrison tomorrow." ”

Listening to Marshal Xia Jun's order, Fang Xiaoyu raised his head with some confusion, when he saw the smile that flashed in Marshal Xia Jun's eyes. After thinking about what his grandfather had said to him before, Fang Xiaoyu suddenly realized that Marshal Xia Jun was doing it on purpose, he was going to send himself down to the actual combat troops, it seemed that the battle with the Monte Empire was about to start, and he was going to go to the battlefield to gild and prepare to be a lord.

The General Staff Department is a place that every officer wants to go, and as long as he can make achievements here, he will be promoted very quickly. When the other staff officers looked with pity at the fastest promoted colonel in the history of the staff department being transferred with a gloomy face, Fang Xiaoyu, who pretended to have a depressed expression, was actually happy in his heart.

However, he couldn't show it, and just replied with a serious face: "I accept the marshal's decision to deal with it, and I will report for duty tomorrow." Xiahou Feng on the side didn't know the inside story, and he was still pleading with Fang Xiaoyu on the side. Although Xiahou Feng and Xia Jun are both field marshals, Xia Jun is the first marshal of the army, Xia Houfeng and Fang Rui both belong to the level of deputy marshals, and it is Xia Jun who really holds the real power.
