980 Trying to get away with it

readx;? Di Feng respectfully handed over his boots, Fang Ruitao was curious about the boots, looked through them, and quickly found the location of the mechanism. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info He pressed the mechanism on the heel, and the heel at the bottom of the boot suddenly opened, and Di Feng shouted in fright: "Be careful, adult." ”

Fang Ruitao was startled, his hand retracted like lightning, so he was not injured, and after looking closely, Fang Ruitao found that there was a spring in the heel, which seemed to be used to increase the bouncing force. Seeing Fang Ruitao's quick reaction, Di Feng was so frightened that he wiped his sweat, he forgot to remind him just now, he only remembered when he knew that Fang Ruitao was going to press the switch, fortunately, he didn't get hurt, otherwise a few of them would be in trouble.

"My lord also has a mechanism on the other side, and a dagger sticks out of the front of the boot, which is my self-defense tool. Di Feng hurriedly said another mechanism, for fear that Fang Ruitao would press it again and cause a problem.

Fang Ruitao tried the test head and said: "The idea is indeed very ingenious, I don't know if you goblin clan are willing to work under my command." ”

"What do you mean" Di Feng was stunned for a moment, and then thought of a possibility. "Do you want us to enter the factory and produce something for your workshop?"

Fang Ruitao shook his head with a smile and said: "How is this possible, those are just very simple manufacturing jobs, what I want you to do is to invent and create, to make things that others have not thought of." ”

Several goblins looked at each other, and Di Feng replied, "My lord, forgive me, our goblin clan has never interacted with foreign races, and there is no precedent for cooperating with foreign races. Di Feng was afraid that Fang Ruitao wanted to use the goblin clan as a slave and imprisoned him to work for him, so he directly declined.

Fang Ruitao shook his head with a smile and said: "If you don't want to, there's nothing, I just like to make new things too, so I want to cooperate with you and communicate with you." Since you don't want to, forget it, when you have eaten enough, I will ask them to give you the money for compensation, and you can leave. ”

Hearing Fang Ruitao say that he would let them go so easily, several goblins almost didn't believe their ears, they looked at each other for a long time before they understood what they meant. Seeing that Fang Ruitao did not have any malicious intent, the goblins were immediately relieved, and Fang Ruitao also entertained them very warmly, until a few goblins were full of wine and food, Fang Ruitao gave them the compensation of thirty gold coins and let them leave on their own.

Fang Ruitao kept sending several goblins out of the gate, and the grateful Di Feng saluted again and again: "I didn't expect the adults to be so humble, it really surprised us, it's really rare to see a good official like the adult." Let's go, my lord, please come back. ”

Fang Ruitao nodded and said, "It's okay, you guys go back as soon as possible, after all, it's not safe to bring a lot of gold coins, I have two things here for you." Fang Ruitao said that he first took out a repeating crossbow and handed it to Di Feng and said, "This one is for you, you can use it for self-defense on the road." Fang Ruitao gave them a completely mechanical repeater, the kind that needed to be controlled with a crank to turn the arrow cage, and after explaining its usage, the eyes of several goblins were almost straight.

"This thing is something you bring to the leader of the goblin clan, it can be regarded as my greeting gift. Fang Ruitao handed over a small and delicate machine and said, "When you use it, you can just turn the law behind it." ”

Di Feng nodded and took it and said, "Thank you for the gifts, these two gifts are extraordinary, I will wait for the thanks, and we will leave." The next time I come to the imperial capital, I will definitely send some gifts from our goblin clan as a thank you. ”

Looking at the back of the goblins leaving, Diao Chan, who had not spoken, asked, "Xianggong, don't you really want to take the goblins under your command, why did you let them go so easily?" ”

Fang Ruitao shook his head and said, "I want to take them under my command so that they can give full play to their creative talents and study all kinds of novelties for me." If I forcibly leave them behind, these people are unwilling, how can they seriously help me?"

Diao Chan said: "But in this way, they are not even more useless when they leave, where can we find the goblins?"

Fang Ruitao said with a smile: "They will come back, like such a nation interested in researching inventions and creations, the gifts I give them are fatally attractive, in order to get more novel ideas, they will definitely come back to me." ”

Fang Ruitao has been working in Coral City for more than three months, these days the Red Devil Empire is building roads on a large scale, and at the same time merging workshops to build water conservancy projects, but these people's work is not lawful, and the roads built have instead become a thoroughfare for the Purple Pupil Empire to dump products.

For the people of the Red Devil Empire who do not understand economic and financial knowledge, they have no idea the dangers of being dumped, and they are still complacent about being able to buy all kinds of novelty goods newly developed by the Purple Pupil Empire, without noticing that the country's assets are flowing out along the road.

Due to the construction of the Red Devil Empire, the Lanhua Empire refused to lag behind, and they also started various constructions, for which they also asked the Purple Pupil Empire for advice. Fang Ruitao is also happy to integrate the commerce and trade of the entire continent, and use his expanding workshops to occupy the market of the entire continent, so he is very cooperative in planning for the Lanhua Empire, helping them to build water conservancy projects and roads more scientifically, so that they can achieve better results with less money than the Red Devil Empire.

With the rise of water conservancy projects in the Demon God Continent, the agriculture of various countries has indeed made great progress, and in this year's general dry weather, the Demon God Continent has miraculously achieved a bumper agricultural yield.

The agricultural harvests of various countries have made the nobles and peasants of various countries have spare money, and most of this spare money has flowed into the treasury of the Purple Pupil Empire. After having money, Fang Ruitao began to use the large-scale smelting workshop to start changing the clothes of the whole army.

After falling steel inlaid armor and steel weapons, Fang Ruitao began to equip the emperor's ** team with steel helmets and boots, and each of them also had a steel shield, which greatly increased the army's defense and made it easier for them to defeat their opponents in border conflicts.

Soon the Purple Pupil Empire won a complete victory with zero casualties in a series of border conflicts, which finally annoyed the upper echelons of the Red Devil Empire, who thought that they could no longer let the Purple Pupil Empire grow stronger, and they needed to use the military strength to defeat this terrible enemy.

"The Red Devils are mobilizing on a massive scale, and they want to invade us. Coupled with this year's bumper grain harvest, the Red Devil Empire has enough logistical weapons to start a war, what do you think we should do" The Purple Demon Emperor summoned all the military and political officials in Coral City, hoping to come up with countermeasures.
