Looking at this financial report, not only Luo Ming, but also anyone showed an undisguised cheerful smile.

Laugh and laugh, after laughing, everyone has to calm down and solve practical problems.

Da Kang, the chief housekeeper of Luo Ming, directly pointed out a key issue: "Your Majesty, such a large flow of funds, it is easy to say abroad, but I am afraid that I can't hide it for too long at home."

Others may not be able to think of the Silk Tea Road for a while, but they will definitely think that the Carlo Mountains will produce expensive goods such as tea, and in the long run, it will attract many jackals and vultures. ”

"Jackals and vultures...... Luo Ming smiled without retreating, narrowed his eyes again, and turned to Dungar to the side, "What do you think? My general, the Ministry of Works has handed over the best weapons and armor to you, and what about your results?"

In fact, he knew almost all of this, as an ambitious lord, how could he lack understanding of the army under his command?

But he just wants Dungar to speak openly and let everyone listen, to boost everyone's self-confidence, and at the same time to boost Dungar's own self-confidence - he has a little low self-esteem or gloom because of his physical disability.

It would be a lie to say that Luo Ming had time to care about everyone in his territory, even if it was his army, he could only remember the names of all the regular army soldiers.

But it's okay to care about these few henchmen.

Although Dungar was a little surprised by Luo Ming's speech, he immediately calmed down and immediately replied in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, your warriors will not be afraid of any challenge, whether it is a jackal or a vulture, if you dare to come, let them turn into meat puree!"

He took out the memo, referred to the above record, and began to report.

This is also a new fashion in Luo Ming's territory, because writing paper is relatively cheap and portable, middle and high-level people have already liked to carry a notebook with them.

"Up to now, our standing army consists mainly of three full-fledged field infantry squadrons (82 men each), two full-fledged field artillery squadrons, and one independent cavalry squadron.

Sixty percent of the infantry were already equipped with cuirasses, two squadrons of elite infantry were given priority to full sets of heavy infantry armor, and two other squadrons were experimentally issued with arquebuses and winch crossbows, which were being tested.

The artillery part is equipped with a total of 12 light guns (improved Tiger squat guns) and 6 mountain howitzers, and is well trained.

The cavalry squadron has a total of three squads, and there is a ten-person dissatisfied formation squad to receive shock cavalry training, and there is no standard armor, but they have a family history, basically bring their own armor, and have basically mastered the use of standard extended cavalry spears and cavalry swords. The remaining two full squadrons had been trained in light cavalry and had mastered the use of standard cavalry knives, and half of them had mastered the art of using pistols on horses, although reloading the pistols required the horses to stand still completely.

In addition to this, the quality of the mobilized militia of the first sequence is good, and the second sequence is also reasonable, the number of these two groups is about five hundred. ”

"Not bad, not bad. After listening to these reports, Luo Ming applauded, and everyone immediately followed with great political consciousness, and for a while, the conference room was full of applause.

Dungar thanked him repeatedly, and then gave the greatest credit to Luo Ming and the rest of the department, and thus ended his speech.

It can be seen that he was completely affirmed in front of everyone, and he suddenly gained a little more confidence, and his head was raised a little higher.

Next, other departments also reported one by one.

Industry can be divided into two parts: military and civilian (commercial), and the military part, in addition to the weapons that the army has received as mentioned by Dungar before, there are some gratifying breakthroughs.

The names of some projects make others confused, but Luo Ming will smile when he hears it.

An experimental bronze rifled cannon has been manufactured, and the iron cannon, although not successfully manufactured, has solved many problems, and is about to see the dawn of success.

Rifled guns can greatly improve the accuracy of shells, although bronze rifled guns are not a good choice, and iron or even steel is generally used on earth.

Bronze is softer than iron, so the rifling is quickly smoothed out, making it not much different from the smoothbore guns that preceded Lockin.

But there is no need for Luo Ming to use it too often, and it will not be smoothed out for a while—it is only used to experiment with rifled gun technology.

Another technological breakthrough was semi-fixed ammunition - the original Luo Ming's artillery or those muskets that appeared as experimental specimens needed to be poured with gunpowder before the projectiles were put in.

Now Luo Ming directly uses paper to fill the gunpowder quantitatively, and when he wants to use it, he can directly count one, two, and three packs, and the shotgun is also packed in a paper tube, so it will not be easy to load too much or accidentally spill on the ground.

As for the time-delay fuze technology, although it is not mature enough, it has found the right idea, and next year, it should be possible to create a usable artillery grenade.

As for the civil and commercial industries, a number of small factories were built during the year, including perfume factories, soap factories, paper mills, garment factories, shoe factories, carpentry factories, brick factories, and clay pot factories. Through the primary assembly line, professional division of labor, performance rewards and other methods, the efficiency and output have been effectively increased, and in many aspects self-sufficiency has been achieved, and a large amount of additional income has been provided for Schönbrunn Ling.

A third of the iron ore mine has been dug and an iron-making furnace is under construction, and it is expected to be officially put into operation in the first half of next year.

Then there is the area of sanitation: this year, in the vast Karlo mountains, a vigorous Amytherm hygiene campaign was launched.

Doctors, priests, soldiers, and officials went to the countryside to take a variety of measures, resulting in a significant reduction of more than 10 percentage points in the morbidity and mortality rates of the mountain people.

This not only allowed Luo Ming to gradually have a larger population, but also further increased his prestige.

Recently, a myth and legend have spread that King Romans stood on a tower every day to inspect his realm, and one day, when he saw evil spirits spreading diseases, he was furious and ordered the heavens to thunder, and a clear spring was split, and two great lakes flowed, and all these evil spirits were drowned and driven away.

This is probably because Luo Ming's deeds of renovating the sick lake have been superstitious, in short, this is not Luo Ming or Ariana or anyone else, but the more superstitious mountain people themselves in the process of word of mouth storytelling.
