Of course, Wang Dong used metal nanobots to set up many hard rocks on the periphery of his automated factory, and these rocks did not contain any metal, so the miners would not drill through these difficult and worthless stones to go deep into the automated factory.

The little guy who is almost three years old has walked very steadily, Wang Dong almost doesn't have to hug Peter now, maybe he has experienced a lot, the little guy is very sensible now, and he will hardly pester Wang Dong to cry, except for sometimes holding Xiao Hei and saying that he misses his aunt, he almost does not show any unhappiness.

Wang Dong and Ashley have been working hard almost every day this year, but they haven't given birth to a younger brother or sister to the little guy, the hostess of the City Lord's Mansion has added almost all her desire and love for children to Peter after feeling that she can't force such a thing as having a child, and the two women, one big and one young, get along very well.

After the production capacity of the mine reached its limit and the workshop promised by the Silver Ladder Consortium was also established in Marat, the city was like a fast-growing caterpillar, thickening and growing at an alarming rate, and Wang Dong always had a feeling that Marat's economy would change dramatically like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly when it reached a certain level.

"It's just that I don't know when this change will come. ”

Wang Dong stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the study, looking at the city that was still lit up at night, with the abundant output of the mines, people's income was also increasing, many people had spare money to go to taverns, and some people who did business with the mines were able to go to luxury places such as the Moulin Rouge to consume.

As a result, there are more and more nightlife outlets, and Ashley is considering whether to open a new Moulin Rouge to satisfy the men who have to wait in line to enter.

"I don't think it's good for a city lord's wife to run a Fengyue place, or you might as well sell the Moulin Rouge. ”

"Why?" said Ashley, stomping her foot in annoyance, her high heels digging a small hole in the wooden floor, "If it weren't for the old lady's girls at the Moulin Rouge to find out the news for you and get the handle, the slippery bureaucrats in Marat would have listened to you?"

Wang Dong smiled helplessly, walked to the wine cabinet and poured a glass of red wine for his wife, and sent it to her: "I mean, if you don't want to, forget it." ”

"Knock knock!"

After Wang Dong said "come in", the chubby Rebecca appeared at the door of the study and said respectfully, "My lord, Ms. Stephanie asks to see you." ”

Ashley took a sip of the red wine in her glass and said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't this woman supposed to stay at the southwest headquarters of the Silver Ladder Foundation in Feyton? Why does she come to you every month, doesn't she know that you are the one who has a wife?"

Wang Dong doted on Ashley's nose and said, "People are staunch feminists, and they have always looked down on people like me who marry two wives." ”

"Hmph, what is she, why should she look down on my man, I still look down on her!"

Ashley craned her proud neck, slammed her glass, and walked out through the other door of the study.

For some reason, Ashley has been very prejudiced against Stephanie since she knew that men should only marry one wife, and as long as Stephanie appeared, she would leave, and Stephanie didn't seem to have any intention of meeting the second lady of the city lord.

A moment later, Wang Dong sat behind his desk and saw Stephanie, who had just arrived from Feyton, a woman wearing a smart suit and skirt, a pair of black stockings and stiletto heels on her slender legs, which looked very pleasing to the eye.

"James, I've brought the Silver Ladder Consortium and your new cooperation agreement. ”

"You're so direct, good afternoon, Stephanie. ”

Wang Dong shook his head with a smile, took an envelope from Stephanie's hand, opened it and looked at it.

On the cover is a man named Cantona, Wang Dong is no stranger to this name, over the past year, the chairman of the Yinti consortium has written several letters to Wang Dong, every time the mine has made significant progress and increased production, he will write to congratulate him, he never asks about the specific details of the operation, but writing a letter shows his confidence in the cooperation between the two sides.

The letter begins as usual, greeting Mrs. Wang Dong and the children, and congratulating the mine on its huge profits under Wang Dong's operation, but the last paragraph is a little different.

"James, my dear friend, the Board of Directors and I feel that our cooperation can be further developed, and Stephanie will be the plenipotentiary of the Silver Ladder Consortium to share our thoughts with you. - Your sincere friend, Cantona. ”

Wang Dong folded the letter, put it in the drawer of his desk, frowned and asked, "Go further, how to go further?"

Stephanie said: "According to Kenny's observations, there should be mineral deposits near the Trichadens, I have brought a prospecting team this time, I hope you can send me some soldiers to go to prospecting, if new veins are found, we are willing to cooperate with the current agreement." ”

Even if the cooperation went well, Wang Dong felt that there was no reason to refuse, so he simply recruited Colwin and asked him to accompany Stephanie to prospect in person.

Letting a deputy corps commander accompany her to prospecting not only shows Wang Dong's attention, but also prevents other small actions of the Silver Ladder Consortium.

Wang Dong also remembered that he hadn't been to see his automated factory for a while, and stopped Stephanie, who was about to go out, and planned to go to Tricha Mountain with her, and when he got there, the prospecting team started prospecting with Tricha Mountain as the center.

The road leading from the main road to the Three Forks Mountain is no longer a forest path covered by plants, and countless people have stepped on it, and this place has long been flat.

Sitting in Stephanie's carriage, the two had little communication except for the operation of the mine, and after talking about last month's income, Wang Dong said to Stephanie: "You look good today, and you are very energetic in continuous travel." ”

"It's fine. The woman replied nonchalantly.

Wang Dong scratched his head and said, "Anyway, we have been working together for a year, and we are very familiar with each other, so can't we talk more about each other's affairs and enhance friendship?"

"There is no friendship between a man and a woman. Stephanie replied, "Men want to talk to women, and most of them want to trick women into bed, except for business." ”

"As for it?" Wang Dong rolled his eyes helplessly and said: "I just think that we are partners, and enhancing friendship can increase the tacit understanding between us, and also facilitate future cooperation." ”

"It's good to be on business. Stephanie closed her eyes, as if she wasn't ready to discuss it with Wang Dong any longer.

There was no way to go on, so Wang Dong simply stopped talking, and the scholar Stephanie closed her eyes and waited until she reached the Tricha Mountain.

As Wang Dong had predicted, Sancha Mountain has almost become a small town, with a large number of wooden houses at the foot of the mountain, miners' women scrubbing dirty clothes in front of their homes, and children playing with wooden guns and sticks.

Wang Dong met with Dempsey, the leopard man in charge here, and after making sure everything was in order, he had dinner with some of the mine's managers, and then stayed here.

After dinner, Wang Dong stayed alone, even the waiters in the canteen were kicked out, and in the dim light, Wang Dong whispered, "Are the things ready?"

Dempsey nodded vigorously and said, "It's all ready, transported by my most trusted leopard warrior." ”

The night in the mine is quiet, unlike Marat, where a tavern closes at ten o'clock, and the miners have to enter the mine tomorrow, and it is easy to get drunk and get into a safety accident.

At twelve o'clock, there was no sound at all, Wang Dong pushed open the window of the bedroom, changed into a bat state, and flew to the entrance of the automated factory in the mountains on the left.

Stopping at a familiar place, a small white house quietly rises from the ground, and Wang Dong walks into an elevator composed of metal nanobots, quickly moving towards the factory deep underground.

Here, it's completely different from the first time I came, dozens of assembly lines have been set up, unmanned manipulators are carefully assembling boards full of circuits, and at the end of these lines, a tall, glowing cylinder pierces the entire factory and extends down to a place with no end in sight.

"Ruolan! ”

Wang Dong said softly, and the cylinder immediately flickered, and a soft female voice came out, "Master, the first stage of my main body has been completed by ninety percent, and I am already able to perform calculations." ”

This cylinder called "Ruolan" is imitated by Wang Dong according to the supercomputer Tianhe 999 on the earth, she has extremely high artificial intelligence, and can even carry out scientific research and simulation experiments according to Wang Dong's instructions.

Ordinary guns are not what Wang Dong wants to make, like the Terminator T5000 he once built is made using the highest biotechnology, but the Terminator T5000 is complex to manufacture, each of which requires Wang Dong to forcibly reconstruct at the cellular level next to it, and the risk of failure of manufacturing is also very large, like April, Wang Dong only completed one head.

Large-scale applications must not use technology with such a high failure rate, mature products are king, and most of the mature products on the earth are non-biological types, metals, plastics, glass and other materials constitute the vast majority of the earth's weapons.

A green translucent box popped up in front of Wang Dong, and the robot with a metal skeleton opened its arms and rotated 360 degrees in front of Wang Dong's eyes, with a skeleton-like body but two eyes that emitted not the blue that represented the soul flame, the red eyes indicated that it could see the infrared rays emitted by the object, and it could also see the object clearly in the weak light.

In the hands of the mechanical skeleton, a six-barreled rotating machine gun is carried that, after special modifications, can fire nearly 10,000 rounds in one minute, and can also maintain five minutes of continuous combat.

Terminator T800, Wang Dong decided to continue some of the bad tastes of the Earth Resistance Army, and named this new combat robot according to the names of some movies in the last century.

"Master, the Terminator T800 is in the final stages of development. ”

"Click, click!"

Wang Dong heard the muffled sound of mechanical transmission behind him, turned his head, and saw the thing that appeared in the virtual dialog box.

"Master, Wang Dong, Terminator T800 is at your service. ”

An emotionless electronic voice came from the T800's mouth, and there was no softness in Ruolan's voice at all.

"Why is the voice so stiff?"

Wang Dong frowned and asked.

"Master, because in the research and development stage, you forcibly required all the attributes of the T800 to be set to read-only, it could not grasp or evolve 'emotions', and the sound would only remain in a state without fluctuations. ”

"However, this is fine, this kind of soldier-level robot needs to carry out orders directly and accurately, and emotions are unnecessary for them to catch. After Wang Dong said this, he suddenly felt that he was very much like the villains in those movies, so that his subordinates had no emotion, but one day, suddenly a certain emotionless robot suddenly had emotions due to lightning splits, mechanical failures, logical confusion and other reasons, and he was going to kill himself as a controller.

Of course, Wang Dong would not allow such a thing to happen, and all artificial intelligences and robots, including Ruolan, must go through three unique commands before making any logical judgments.

First, artificial intelligence or robots cannot harm Wang Dong, or watch Wang Dong being hurt and do nothing.

Second, artificial intelligence or robots must obey Wang Dong's orders.

Third, AI or robots must protect themselves as much as possible without violating the first and second laws.

These are the three laws of Asimov, which artificial intelligence or robots must consider before doing anything.

Wang Dong is very satisfied with the current state of the T800, as long as he adds a layer of artificial skin, he can make it real.

"Unfortunately, we haven't found a rubber tree yet, and we can't make reactive plastics, so we can only use metal nanobots to simulate human skin, but it should be enough to deal with it. ”

On the ground, a layer of silvery-white liquid flowed over, spreading from T800's feet to the top of its head, and soon, a man with knotted muscles appeared in front of Wang Dong, and the muscles like small mountains seemed to represent the explosive power in his body.

"Temple, this is Singh, in the future, you will faint in this cave with the ore I purchase every month, and hand it over to Singh. ”

"Yes, sir!"

Dempsey was clever not to ask, and at the same time gave the same order to the leopard soldiers behind him, and it was not normal for the owner of the mine to secretly pay for the ore himself, and Dempsey felt that he still knew as well as possible.

Wang Dong nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "What do you say when someone asks you where this batch of ore is?"

Dempsey complimented: "There was a big merchant who bought ore at a much higher price than the market price, and I sold some to him. ”

Wang Dong patted Deng Puxi on the head and said, "Don't die? The Yinti Consortium signed an underwriting agreement with us, and you secretly sold it to others, if the Yinti Consortium pursues it, how can I keep you? ”
