On this night, more than 5,000 people drank heartily, and many people fell drunk.

After Luo Lan asked the guards to settle the drunken little Loridis, she found Bina and Rick alone.

These two people are Luo Lan's right-hand men, Luo Lan must ask the two of them if he has a big matter, and their status is similar to that of Gandalf.

Neither Bina nor Rick had been drinking, and they were sober now.

Under the bright moonlight, Luo Lan held her first meeting back to the island, and there were only three participants.

Luo Lan first told Rick in detail about the Aiman fleet, which was a very important matter and could not go wrong.

Although Rick is obsessed with alchemy, he is a descendant of the Martin family after all, and still has a good insight into politics and business.

"Your Highness, I understand what you mean, lately the wheat has been almost manufactured, and the main problem is the problem of transportation to the south. I don't need to make wheat anymore, I'll open up a new port for you. ”

Rick answered, and pointed out Luo Lan's thoughts with a word.

Luo Lan was thinking about the new port.

The ports on the west coast were still very primitive, there was not even a port of call, and even if there were roads, it was inconvenient for the fleet to berth, so Rick, as Minister of Agriculture, had to shift his focus to opening up new ports.

Luo Lan nodded and said, "We are short of talents, so we can only trouble you." I think so, Rick, you go and gather the peasants of Uttar Pradesh to open up the port, and there are no less than 50,000 peasants in Uttar Pradesh, and there are enough manpower. First, use wood and stone to build a port where you can dock to meet the Aiman fleet. ”

"Understood."

Rick was in charge, he already had enough prestige in Uttar Pradesh to call on the farmers who were idle, and the autumn wheat would not be harvested until next spring, and the autumn and winter crops were not busy.

Of course, the main reason why farmers are not busy is that there is no agricultural and sideline industry, and these will be solved later.

"Bina, I want you to temporarily take the position of tax collector, now that the special economic zone is in full swing, all kinds of businesses have arisen, and we need to standardize management and collect taxes reasonably."

Luo Lan looked at Bina, who was stunned for a moment: "Let me be an official?" ”

"Yes, I'm relieved that you're out of the horse."

After all, it is necessary to move the people's pockets, and it is better to find a trustworthy person to do it.

Bina hesitated for a moment but nodded.

Rick on the side opened his mouth wide, "Oh my God, Bina, you just said yes"?

Rick looked very incredible, Bina's face was a little embarrassed, and Luo Lan was puzzled: "It's very reasonable, Rick, what are you so surprised about?" ”

"Your Highness, this is not reasonable, Bina is the eldest nun of the church, and the nuns of the church are strictly forbidden to have relations with any country and fiefdom, Bina promises you, it is against the doctrine......"

"It's just friends helping each other, Rick, why are you making all the fuss."

Bina interrupted, and Rick stopped talking, looking at Bina in amazement, and Bina was embarrassed again.

Luo Lan probably understood, but he didn't think about it deeply, and now he wouldn't think about any church.

The two things were finalized, and Luo Lan asked Rick and Bina to talk about their thoughts and see if there was anything missing.

Rick shook his head and said that there was no problem, but Bina said: "Luo Lan, you seem to have no money again, the money raised by the development of the western region has been consumed a lot by the Maokeng Movement and the division of land to households, although the workers on the West Coast have not yet asked for payment, but you have to give it after all." ”

This question made Luo Lan smile bitterly.

In the end, it's still a financial problem.

The previous financial crisis was resolved, but a new financial crisis will emerge, and we must find a way to get money again.

"You can't get much money from the trade tax in the SEZ, so you can't even collect taxes on farmers who come to sell wheat bales, right?"

Bina added, she was thoughtful.

Rick nodded approvingly, "Bina is right, we can only collect taxes on those fixed shops, not on farmers, who only have wheat and no gold. The workers who build the roads, as well as the workers who dig the mines, all need to be paid, and they can't be fooled with their titles, and real gold coins are king. ”

Hearing the two of them say this, Luo Lan got up and paced, all kinds of things wrapped around him like lines, he groaned for a while, and his eyes locked on a line.

"The top priority at the moment is to end the pit movement as soon as possible, we can't drag it on, we can't dig the pit, we have to blow up the pit."

Luo Lan waved his hand and grasped the key point of the problem, as long as the Maokeng movement did not cost money, the financial problem would be much easier.

Bina and Rick were stunned: "Blow up the pit? ”

"That's right," Luo Lan couldn't help laughing, "That Daisy is really an alchemist, and the two of you are also alchemists, you should have seen "Alchemy", there is a powerful weapon called a blast bomb on it, which can blast everything, and Daisy can make it."

As soon as these words came out, Bina and Rick stood up in shock at the same time.

Because the explosive bomb is the most mysterious thing in all of alchemy, almost all alchemists know it, but very few people know it.

Coupled with fifty years of suppression, alchemists have long been out of favor, and now it is incredible that they can still find gunpowder experts.

"Where's that Daisy? If she can really make explosive bombs, our mining area will be developed without much effort, and we can even take the initiative to mine to find iron ore and gold! ”

Rick was extremely excited, as a veteran of alchemists, he naturally knew about explosive bombs.

Bina was also very surprised, "No wonder you want to save her, great, if there is a bomb on "Alchemy", then it is too easy to repair the toilet, we can blow up the rocks"!

The words of the two alchemy bosses are absolutely incomprehensible outside, but Luo Lan can understand them, or he understands them best, after all, he used to live in a world with nuclear bombs.

"Daisy is drunk and crazy, she won't wake up until tomorrow, Rick, you can pick some elite miners later, and tomorrow we will take Daisy to pick the right mining area and let her make explosives."

"Yes!"

In the second half of the night, the bonfire party finally stopped, the workers fell asleep, and the snoring sound in a huge mining area shook the sky.

Luo Lan stood on the top of a mountain, looking out at the mountains and jungles in the distance.

He could see a fire in the woods in the distance, indicating that there were workers in the mine in the distance.

Luo Lan is once again grateful for the mining campaign twenty years ago, which developed nearly half of the mountains on the west coast, and the Rick Special Economic Zone is just one of the areas near the sea, while the rest of the mining areas, endless resources are still waiting for Luo Lan to excavate.

With a satisfied smile, Luo Lan fell asleep on the sheepskin.

As the sun rises, the industrial behemoths of the West Coast are in motion, coal is lit in every kiln, iron is brought in from the city, and blacksmiths are making the tools Rick needs.

Huge tides of workers also paved the way to the coast, and truckloads of burnt earth were transported to the soft soil to lay the foundations.

The nearby mines are bustling with miners banging around to pick the best quality blackstone.

Luo Lan took a deep breath, and Rick's impatient voice came from behind him.

"Your Highness, the elite miners have been selected, but what about Miss Daisy?"

Luo Lan looked back and saw more than ten miners, all of whom were tall and big, all of them experienced old miners.

Luo Lan nodded with satisfaction and looked down the mountain.

Bina, who was dressed in a black nun's suit, happened to appear at the bottom of the mountain, she pulled the petite and introverted Daisy and waved her hand at Luo Lan with her head held high: "Come down, Daisy can't wait to make explosive bombs." ”

Daisy next to her blushed, she was not used to being watched by everyone, and she was drunk last night, and she was ashamed to death when she woke up, because she heard that Prince Luo Lan saw her drunk and crazy.

Thinking of the shame of tearing her throat and twisting her ass while singing, Daisy really wanted to find a hole to get into.
