Chapter 32: The Industrial Behemoth

When she was very young, Daisy followed her father and lived in the deep mountains and forests, where there were volcanoes, mines, and all kinds of materials to make explosive bombs.

Daisy's father was a paranoid madman who was obsessed with making explosive bombs again and again, improving them again and again, but in the end, he died in an earthen kiln explosion.

The powerful explosion still haunts Daisy to this day.

After that, Daisy began to wander around the world with homemade bombs, and according to her father's wishes, Daisy wanted to carry them forward.

However, the result was cruel, she was treated like a witch and almost burned alive.

So when Luo Lan told her that she was willing to unconditionally support her in developing the bomb, Daisy cried with joy.

The little girl who has experienced too much suffering is no longer willing to doubt Luo Lan, she can only pray for her dead father to bless her, and Luo Lan in front of her is not a bad person.

After it was completely dark, Luo Lan took Daisi back to the palace.

In the dim light of an oil lamp, Daisy drew on the parchment paper the process of making gunpowder, as well as the next level of how to make explosives.

When she was painting, she was also observing Luo Lan.

Luo Lan was serious and serious, as if there was a flame burning in his eyes, it was definitely not a gaze that someone who looked down on alchemy.

The man in front of him, like his father, has an absolute obsession with gunpowder.

Daisy breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone finally became lively, "That...... If you really support me, then give me a mine, preferably with a volcano nearby......"

Daisy said, as if she felt that her request was too much, so she lowered her requirements, "It doesn't matter if there is no volcano, the main thing about volcanoes is that there are a lot of natural sulfonous stones, which are easy to use. If there is a mining area, you can also look for sulfonite, and if there is no mining area, you can also extract it from pyrite, and you can refine it by burning pyrite and black stone together in a kiln......"

Daisy said a lot, and she was more energetic than ever. Of course, the knowledge she said is too complicated, not to mention the people of this era, even the modern people of the 21st century can really understand much, after all, there is a specialization in the art industry.

Luo Lan understood most of it, he studied chemistry anyway.

To sum up, Daisie's knowledge of making gunpowder is quite perfect, which is probably equivalent to the black technology of gunpowder in the early Song Dynasty of China.

Anything further down is not possible, because the required manufacturing equipment cannot be built, such as fire, artillery, and the like. Maybe it will be a few more years before Phuket produces these things, and Rome was not built in a day.

"Amazing, your gunpowder manufacturing level has reached this point, Prince Ben admires."

Luo Lan stood up and saluted to show her respect for Daisy. Daisy was stunned again, she had not yet received aristocratic etiquette.

She also got up to return the salute, and returned so dryly that even she was amused.

Luo Lan is in a good mood, if she gets Daisy today, she will be able to get the most powerful army tomorrow.

He may not be very proficient in making gunpowder, but he is definitely a leader in the use of gunpowder, as long as the thrust of gunpowder explosion is used well, all kinds of military weapons and civilian tools can come into being.

"Daisy, you rest first, tomorrow I will take you to the mining area, you can choose the land at will, and the money and manpower will be all for you to solve all your worries."

Daisy looked at Luo Lan and nodded obediently.

That night, Daisy couldn't sleep all night.

When the sun rose the next day, Daisy rose with dark eyes, she hadn't slept all night, but her mind was so excited that she was expecting Prince Roland's promise.

Luo Lan also got up, he didn't have any nonsense, he rode directly to find Bina and let Bina go with him.

Bina was treating in the church, and when she saw Luo Lan, she was immediately relieved.

She had fled back to Phuket Island with Daisy before, but she had been worried about Luo Lan in her heart. Luo Lan came back yesterday and didn't inform her, which made her worry for a long night.

"Has the investment been successful?"

Bina first asked Luo Lan what she valued the most, and Luo Lan rarely showed a stunned look, "Will this prince be unsuccessful?" In three months, the fleet will be on the West Coast."

Bina glanced at Luo Lan, and the corners of her mouth also hooked up a smile. She wanted to hear how Luo Lan managed to pull a fleet.

Luo Lan naturally didn't hide it, Bina was his closest partner, and there was no need to hide these things.

"You brought a fleet with rum? I'm curious, what exactly is rum? Do you know how to make it? ”

Bina was a little hesitant, she was afraid that Luo Lan would fail.

Luo Lan chuckled and shook his head: "I'm not a winemaker, so naturally I can't make it, but there are winemakers on the island who make wheat wine and wine." They just need to change the ingredients to sugar cane juice, and by the way, sugar cane is sweet stalk, you said the island has it too. ”

Bina was stunned when she heard this, "What does the sweet terrier have to do with rum?" I've never heard of anything like rum."

"It's my own."

Luo Lan shamelessly dragged the patent right in his hands.

The two rode out of Phuket City as they spoke, and at the gate of the city, Daisy also rode and waited.

Although Daisy is young, she is not squeamish, and her riding skills are even better than Bina's, and she is embarrassed to rest all the way to the West Coast.

After most of the day's rapid journey, the three arrived at Rick District at sunset.

Before they got closer, the heat of the SAR hit their faces.

In the days since Luo Lan left, the Minister of Transportation, Bor, built more than a dozen earthen kilns and used coal to frantically burn earth to pave roads. And 5,000 civilians on the west coast joined the mighty road-building tide.

There are also miners who travel back and forth between the open pit mine and the underground mine, hauling truckloads of blackstone in rudimentary wooden wheels to the place where Rick makes wheat.

Many of them don't even get paid, they just want a knighthood. The fishermen worked hardest, and they wanted to build roads to the seashore and start fishing.

In short, no one was idle, and those who really did not have the skills simply started the "catering business", the smell of wheat porridge and wheat bales was in the air, and the city vendors bought the wheat of nearby farmers and provided food for the workers.

Industry, commerce, agriculture and sideline industries have already taken the form of a blend of water and milk.

Daisy was dumbfounded, the mine in her eyes was like a steel beast running at high speed, not to mine gold, but to create an industrial base.

Luo Lan and Bina glanced at Daisy and smiled at each other.

As the trio enter the entrance to the mine, they are confronted by Barrett Guards and Rick.

Rick has been on the road in Uttar Pradesh lately, documenting the effects of the wheat feed, while Barrett protects him.

The two groups of people were very excited to meet.

Barrett even hugged Luo Lan and said loudly that he wanted to die His Royal Highness the Prince.

Luo Lan pushed him away in disgust, and then hugged Rick.

"Mr. Rick, how's the wheat working?"

"Your Highness, you would never have imagined the growth of autumn wheat. In the past, the three-nursery system was used, and the seeds grew slowly and crookedly, and half of them rotted before they were unearthed. But now with the ridge tillage system, the seeds grow fast and well, the soil is soft and breathable, and irrigation and fertilization are very convenient, according to my speculation, the yield of one acre of land is now more than twenty times higher than before! ”

Rick's words made Luo Lan and his party gasp, what is the concept of twenty times? What used to produce 1,000 liters can now produce 20,000 liters!

This is not only a revolutionary breakthrough in farming technology, but also the most powerful effect of Jinkela's application!
