In the days that followed, Ted tried strawberries, lychees, watermelons...

These common foods do not exist on this planet, and even if you look through the history books, there is no record of similar foods!

Illustrate! These things! You can make a lot of money again! Just those big and sweet cantaloupes, selling them at a high price to the noble lady can make all the money you have spent recently!

Now the only thing that needs to be nerve-wracking is the transportation problem, the two ATVs were all dismantled by Thomas, in order to keep the secret, the truck can not be used immediately after it is built, as for the excavator... Ted has a good mind and doesn't use that kind of thing to ship.

"It's nerve-wracking, if you use a horse-drawn carriage to pull it, it will take at least five days to get to another city, the loss is too great, and it is difficult to preserve the freshness..."

Ted didn't want to use the storage compartment even more, the last time he wore a mask, he didn't arouse suspicion for the time being, but if this thing reappeared, the secret would be leaked sooner or later!

It's better to come up with an optimal solution based on existing technology!

If you want to improve the efficiency of transportation, building roads is a good way, but... The payback period of this method is too long, I don't have technology in hand, and the money in my pocket is not enough to toss!

However~ there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, there will always be a way!

Thinking of this, a group of people gathered in front of the fire, raised the watermelon in their hands and shouted: "For the future of our city!" Dried melon! ”

"!"

Next, everyone opened their mouths, tore off the crispy and delicious watermelon flesh, and enjoyed the taste of summer...

Suddenly, the cool and sweet watermelon inspires Ted! He slapped his thigh and suddenly realized!

"That's right! I can sell canned food! I stupid! ”

It is not difficult to make such a thing as glass, and it is easy to get it in three months by buttoning an iron lid and building a small production line!

Ted can even provide the clay method of making glass to everyone for free, so that not only can it hide people's eyes, but also benefit the intelligent creatures of this continent by the way!

Start with the simplest canned peaches, make white sugar from sugar cane, and mix the chopped peeled peaches together! A simple and delicious canned peach is ready!

There is another reason to choose peaches, and that is... The seeds of peaches will not be taken by others!

If you want to get rich, you have to monopolize it for at least a while, and when you make enough money, you can be a good person and send out the seeds.

According to the estimated cost in the system, he has a certain industrialization foundation, and the cost of a two-liter canned peach is about 8 copper coins, but Ted has no habit of squeezing his own people, so the cost is calculated according to 10 copper coins, and finally sells for a silver coin, even if the transportation fee is deducted, he will also make a net profit of 80 copper coins...

If you don't make this money, wouldn't you be a bastard?

"That's it! Wait for canned peaches to open the market, then add other canned food, dried fruits, and finally sell tomato sauce or mayonnaise, luncheon meat sausage! Then you can sit back and wait to count the money! ”

"I'm a genius!"

Everyone around him was eating melons, and Ted's slapping of his thighs didn't attract everyone's attention, and no one noticed that he was already laughing in his heart.

At the same time, progress on the academy's side is getting faster and faster, most of the necessary lathe tools have been produced in several copies, and everyone is looking forward to a better tomorrow!

When Ted gave his idea to the students, he found that the group had already drunk from delicate glasses!

Since this is the case, then there is no need to prompt yourself, now you can directly hire some outstanding citizens who want to make money, let them study, and after three months, start work on time, build a batch first, and try it in the city!

Now, the haze on the head is gone, at least in the short term, there is no need to worry about money!

"Life is getting better and better!"

...

It's just that the inside of the empire is not like the north ...

When winter came, large areas of forest were burned, the people did not have enough charcoal to survive the winter, and the nobles were still immersed in the joy of victory in the war.

Outside, starvation was everywhere, inside the palace, the gold was resplendent, and the generals and nobles toasted and drank and reveled, oblivious to what was happening outside.

The war was indeed won, and the Xueman Empire received a large amount of reparations, which was about equal to the empire's taxes for nearly twenty years! They squandered the money and squandered it, had fun in the palace, and continued their previous extravagant and wasteful life.

During the night, a crowd gathers to discuss how to distribute the wealth...

The general who went out to fight raised his glass and told the truth: "Your Majesty, lords! This campaign! We will be able to win thanks to our Viscount of the North, Ted Hairington! They have found a way to fight the plague and have thrown these evils at our enemies, leaving them to pour out in battle! Let's fight for success! ”

"Generals don't have to be modest!" The emperor put down his glass and gave a thumbs up: "The main thing is to rely on the general, you are invincible!" Lead our Xueman soldiers to smash the Yellow Dragon! Cut down the enemy's commander! That's how the war was won! ”

No one cares about Ted, a border nobleman, and it's completely useless to befriend him, so it's better to spend the money on the imperial nobles! Support and reward the Emperor's own power!

After another sip of wine, the Emperor stood up drunkenly and pointed to the north: "As for Viscount Highington... It's better to give him an earl, and give him those useless snow-capped mountains in the north! Make him the Earl of the North! Then, this money, we will not give him a single copper coin! What do you think? ”

"Your Majesty! Hahahaha..."Everyone present doesn't care about a border nobleman, they only care about the cake in front of them, as for a name, it's just a name...

In the eyes of the aristocracy, no matter how big the territory is, it is useless, you have to rely on arable land! Grain! And ironmaking! And the mountains in the north, which are piled with snow all year round, obviously do not have these conditions, and it is a good idea to fool around with a pile of broken clods!

"Then ~ who does this make it do? Or... Let the Fifth Prince Steve!? The emperor pointed to the five princes with a sad face.

Among the princes and princesses, this strange prince was out of place with everyone, he often went in and out of the civilian quarters, distributed his money to them, and refused to drink a drop of wine even at dinner parties!

Compared with other cute children, it is better to let this bitter gourd with a sad face all day long do this task that even dogs hate~

The other princes present also had no objections, and continued to drink while holding the mistress in their arms while doing indescribable things!

At this time, going to the north is no different from looking for death, and in five days, the Gobi leading to the north will be covered with snow, and at that time, the white Gobi is easy to get lost, and then it will be trapped in it and can no longer turn out, only the natives of the north, or horse bandits, can find the direction.

The fifth prince Steve did not complain, but knelt down on one knee to receive the order, and quickly left with his guards: "The son of the minister takes the order!" ”

On the way out, a figure flashed and came to the prince: "Your Highness..."

"Huh? Isn't this Leonardo da Vinci? Why are you here? The fifth prince looked at the young aristocratic painter in front of him with a little puzzlement.

Leonardo da Vinci looked at the five princes in front of him with a smile on his face, and put down the drawing board in his hand: "I heard that you are going to the north, I want to go with you to observe the reconstruction of the people in the north after the plague!" ”

"No problem, then you come with me! Tomorrow at noon! ”

"Yes, Your Highness..."

After the people who had hindered the entertainment of the nobles had left, the Emperor raised his glass, stood on the table and shouted: "Then the music, and the dance!" ”

...

At noon the next day, the team set out, braving the bitter cold wind and heavy snow, and marched northward!

And Ted, at the moment, is still learning how to use thermal weapons...

I thought it would be an easy thing, but I didn't expect the truth to be several times more complicated than I imagined!

When he was playing games, he always thought... The gun can be thrown aside when not in use, and it will not be damaged.

I never thought that this thing is actually very delicate, even if it is as hard as 'Kalashnikov', it has to be maintained regularly like a girl cares for her skin! And the frequency of maintenance is not once a month or once a week, but every time after shooting out of battle, the gun must be disassembled, dusted, cleaned, oiled, and then assembled!

This maximizes the life of your firearm!

It took Ted almost an hour to disassemble the weapon in front of him for the first time, and then he understood the role of each part and the detailed maintenance methods.

"It seems... Those who brag about B, saying that junior high school students can remember the blueprints of firearms, and can recover perfectly through the other world, are just bragging..."

However, it's nothing when I think about it, after all, B is called, the per capita income is 50 million, and you have to be blinded if you don't have a point! Even a traverser has to master the ability to rub a fusion reactor with dirt by hand, ignoring material limitations.

"Hey, the network is the network, who wouldn't brag about B?"

'Click! 'The firearm assembly is complete, and today's lesson is over!'

It's still snowing outside, and it hasn't stopped these days, so in order to keep everyone from getting cold, Ted has already spent 200 star coins to buy cotton clothes and pants to distribute to the people.

~After all, I love the people like a son~

In this kind of weather, no matter how strong the firewood in the house is, it is still shivering, minus 30 degrees, if you don't wear anything, you will be frozen into a popsicle if you stand outside for a while!

The grade of autumn clothes and pants is completely insufficient, and you have to rely on cotton jackets and cotton pants!

Ted has already planned to wait for next spring, buy a batch of sheep from the system, cut the wool in the summer, and wear it on the body in the winter, no matter how cold it is outside, it has nothing to do with himself~

Another point is the thermal insulation of the house, which is a cliché.

The materials of the building are ordinary wood, cold in winter and hot in summer, and there are no glass windows in this era, only the kind of wooden windows with holes, most people will seal them with wooden boards in winter, leaving only a little for the stove to ventilate...

...

Ted's plan was to make the North a place where both heavy and light industry and agriculture would be self-sufficient.

The first thing to pay attention to is heavy industry, if it goes well, next spring, you can set up a small factory, and in a few years, the heating equipment of the citizens can be replaced~

Starting from the north of the city, little by little it was rebuilt to the south, with sewers, new houses, additional insulation, and heating pipes to connect the whole city!

As an industrialized city, there is no need to burn charcoal for heating... When making steel, the cooling water can be poured directly into the heating and recycled throughout the city! This is also regarded as waste utilization, and energy conservation and emission reduction should be done in advance~

The plan has been sent to William's family, and the specific situation will make them brain-wrenching, and they will continue to learn how to be a good lord and a good businessman~ By the way, take some gunpowder and propellants with man.

"Keep learning~"

In the distance, Mia and Alice sat together, gathered around the fire and continued to eat watermelon~

It seems that this crispy melon with a large sugar content and high water content is very popular, and after the seeds are sent out, with the help of the moon elves, this kind of thing is added to the recipes of the citizens within a day.

In this kind of weather, throw the melon outside for two minutes, and then bring it in and you can eat the ice melon!

"Hiccup~"

After eating an unknown amount of watermelon, the two silly girls sat on the chair and burped~
