Such a huge project, the manpower and material resources that need to be mobilized are undoubtedly huge.

It is not difficult to mobilize all kinds of building materials, resources and equipment.

The trouble lies in the 'manpower'.

Flipping through the statistical reports of various projects in front of me.

The construction of the front-line fortress should be completed within this month.

When the time comes, just transfer this engineering team to pave the road.

However, considering the amount of work and efficiency, this manpower is still a bit insufficient.

According to Luo Ji's thoughts, he wanted to pave all the roads of the Ten Thousand Realms Civilization before he was officially promoted to the Black Iron Rank.

Because this is related to the efficiency of his support for the defense of the city in the future.

Now that I calculate the time, there are only a few years left before I was forcibly promoted to the Black Iron Rank.

You have to speed up quickly.

After weighing the pros and cons in his heart, Luo Ji set his sights on the Northland Mountain City under construction.

As early as last year, the construction of the outer wall of the Northland Mountain Castle was completed.

The construction of the city is about one-fifth complete.

Now he is in dire need of paving workers, and he has no choice but to transfer people from the mountain city of Northland.

It's a big deal, go back and transfer a group of coolies to help with the construction of the mountain city here.

After a round of arrangement and several warrants, the entire civilization of the Ten Thousand Worlds continued to operate at high speed.

By the time the construction of the project officially began, the season had actually entered summer.

A heavy rainstorm ensued, which plunged the civilization of the Ten Thousand Worlds, which had endured summer drought for many years, into a carnival!

I looked up and felt the heavy raindrops lapping on my face.

At this moment, even Luo Ji, who has always been calm, couldn't hide the ecstasy on his face at all.

A heavy rain this summer proved that the calamity of the Xiaoice River period finally allowed them to survive!

As long as we survive these difficult days, the people's lives will undoubtedly be much better in the winter and summer seasons to come.

At the same time, crops can grow better, and with it, food production will also increase.

made Luo Ji feel bitter.

However, before he could be happy for a while, a loud roar suddenly came from a distance!

Listening to this exaggerated movement, Luo Ji's heart tightened as if he had remembered something.

Then he didn't have time to say anything, and hurriedly hurried in the direction of the Ordnance Research Department.

Before he could officially get closer, from a long distance, he could already see a large amount of black smoke rising from the sky above the Ordnance Research Department.

The explosion just now probably burned the entire Ordnance Research Department.

Fortunately, it was raining heavily, and judging by this situation, the fire should have been basically extinguished.

Such an exaggerated movement naturally attracted the attention of many people.

The people of the patrol team in the city also rushed to the scene as soon as possible.

And the fence was pulled up, and the entire area in the vicinity was cordoned off, prohibiting ordinary people from approaching.

Passing through the isolation zone, Luo Ji quickly walked into the Ordnance Research Department with a group of guards.

The high walls around the Ordnance Research Department were nothing.

But the internal office building has collapsed by a small half, and the source of the black smoke is undoubtedly here.

This scene made Luo Ji's whole heart instantly hang in his throat.

If he remembers correctly, that location is Ye Xuan's office!

After glancing around, Luo Ji directly locked onto Zhao Lei, the grizzled deputy minister at this time.

At the same time, Zhao Lei obviously saw Luo Ji, and then hurriedly stepped forward to salute......

"Weichen Zhao Lei, see Your Majesty!"

Luo Ji, who was in a rather anxious mood at this time, obviously didn't have time to rub in, so he just heard him ask directly......

"What about your minister?"

"Minister, isn't the minister in ......"

Zhao Lei, who heard this, subconsciously turned his head, but the whole person was instantly dumbfounded.

Depend on! What about such a big living person? I was still here!

"This, this ......"

This was so shocked that Zhao Lei even stuttered when he spoke.

In the end, he was still standing aside, and Wang Kai suddenly pointed in one direction.

"Your Majesty, do you think that is Minister Ye?"

Hearing this, Luo Ji hurriedly looked in that direction.

I saw that at this moment, Ye Xuan was lying on a fairly clean wall, holding a piece of charcoal in his hand that he didn't know where to pick up, using charcoal as a pen and the wall as paper, writing frantically on it.

While writing, there are words in my mouth.

For some reason, the aura like a mad scientist made the members of the Ordnance Research Department who were standing around a little afraid to approach.

In this regard, after Luo Ji sighed heavily, he commanded to one of the guards beside him without looking back......

"Go and call the doctor, and tell someone to copy everything on this wall."

As long as people are alive, then everything is easy to say.

And looking at Ye Xuan's posture, it seems that he was not seriously injured.

The heart that Luo Ji was hanging in his throat was finally put back into his stomach at this moment.

There is no doubt that what Ye Xuan is studying is gunpowder.

In the winter, Luo Ji had just gathered all the materials for making gunpowder.

However, it is obviously impossible to find out the specific formula of something as dangerous as gunpowder.

Therefore, Luo Ji could only put together the materials he needed, and then give them to Ye Xuan to study slowly.

Although before that, he had already told him to study carefully.

But the explosion still scared him a lot.

But fortunately, Ye Xuan is also relatively clever, and during the ignition experiment, he first dodged away, otherwise looking at the power of this explosion, I am afraid it would be really fatal.

A dangerous experiment like this should have been done outside in an open experimental field.

But it was raining heavily today, and Ye Xuan had adjusted the formula, and he didn't listen to anyone's persuasion and wanted to experiment quickly.

According to the results of the doctors' examination afterwards, Ye Xuan's injuries were not serious, basically a little flesh wound.

This can be clearly seen from the fact that after the explosion, she still had the strength to immediately run to the wall next to her and write down the proportion of the experimental formula of gunpowder.

On the contrary, it was the heavy rain that drenched her with a severe cold......

This incident can be said to be quite dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will have to cause death.

Luo Ji felt that he needed to give Ye Xuan a longer memory.

So, he was quite enlightened and gave her a month-long vacation amid Ye Xuan's wailing.

At the same time, two guards, a man and a woman, were specially sent to follow her 24 hours a day.

And during this month's long vacation, she is not allowed to touch anything related to ordnance!

Obviously, Luo Ji knew too much how to punish her.

For Ye Xuan, a guy who is obsessed with the research of ordnance weapons all day long and can't extricate himself, is there anything more painful than this?

The update is sent, thank you for the 'unexpected' monthly pass!
