Chapter 274: The Birth of a New Life
Song Ningxue on the side saw the unbearability in Murong Zhiqing's heart, she reached out to hold her cousin's hand, and her eyes showed a sense of concern.
"Cousin, don't be too sad, if we don't resist, we will only become someone else's fish. This is the way of the world. Moreover, if we do not have enough strength, we cannot guarantee the safety of the river tide. ”
"The emperor announced to the world that this is to force Jiang Chao to enter Beijing, if Jiang Chao does not enter Beijing, I am afraid that the emperor will use public opinion to become a person spurned by the world."
"Therefore, the stronger our power here, the emperor will not dare to touch him, and we ...... What can be done is to support him silently behind his back. ”
When Murong Zhiqing heard this, her complicated and sad expression suddenly turned into a firmness. She nodded and said, "Well, cousin, you're right, what we can do for him is to do what he explains." ”
"Let's go...... Let's take a look at how the seamless steel pipe is made! It shouldn't be long before the first batch of guns can be made. ”
When Song Ningxue heard this, she nodded to Murong Zhiqing, turned around and followed Murong Zhiqing back to the mountain village.
At this time, the industrial development of the mountain village had reached a new level, and the steam engine was already available in many aspects.
Su Xiaoxiao was holding his lower abdomen at this time, and was directing the assembly of the steam engine in the ironmaking workshop, which was a new kind of steam engine. It is used to make seamless steel pipes.
She has been pregnant for more than three months, Jiang Chao has been away for more than two months, in addition to missing Jiang Chao, her greatest happiness is to feel the growth of the little life in her womb.
Murong Zhiqing and Song Ningxue regarded Su Xiaoxiao as a baby, and in addition to envy in their eyes, they were afraid that Su Xiaoxiao would have something.
Most of the time, they had already let Su Xiaoxiao have a good rest, but Su Xiaoxiao couldn't stop at all. She knew Jiang Chao needed support now.
What she can do is to help Jiang Chao manage everything in the mountain village, otherwise, Jiang Chao is afraid that he will be in danger at any time. She vaguely knew that the emperor wanted to harm Jiang Chao, and there were many people who coveted everything in the mountain village.
Therefore, when Murong Zhiqing and Song Ningxue went to the front to check the battle situation, she came to the ironmaking workshop again to see if the steam engine had been assembled.
If this batch of steam engines is assembled, the seamless steel pipes should be able to be mass-produced, although the productivity may not be too high, but it is a good start.
"Ah...... Xiaoxiao, my ancestor, why don't you know how to rest, in case, if something happens, how can we explain it to him! ”
Murong Zhiqing saw Su Xiaoxiao directing everyone to assemble there, and there was a worry in her eyes. Song Ningxue was also so frightened that she hurriedly ran over to support Su Xiaoxiao.
"Sister Zhiqing, the matter here can't be delayed, this steam engine was researched and developed by the three of us together, you are not here, of course only I will preside over the assembly." If you slow down the progress, you will waste a lot of time. ”
"I'm fine, it's only four months now, and I'm not that vulnerable!" Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly said to Murong Zhiqing and Song Ningxue.
When the two girls heard this, they couldn't help but stroke their foreheads, and Murong Zhiqing glared at her with some hatred.
"It is precisely because of four months that you have to be extra careful, this is Jiang Chao's first child, and he doesn't know it yet. You can't ignore yourself......"
Murong Zhiqing said to Su Xiao angrily, and her tone revealed a sense of envy.
"The first child is not counted, I heard that the king of the Yelang clan also has a ...... If she is better than Mr. Little Sister, then ......" Song Ningxue said in a slightly strange voice.
When Su Xiaoxiao heard this, a smile appeared on his face and said, "Whether it's the first or the second, it's all Xianggong's child anyway......"
Su Xiaoxiao didn't think too much about it, the order of the child's age was actually not important to her at all.
However, for Murong Zhiqing and Song Ningxue, who were educated in feudal ideology, the eldest son has the most inheritance rights. Jiang Chao's identity is now changing day by day.
Or, one day, he may become the person of the Ninety-Five. In the future, his inheritance will be inherited by someone. The first child is, of course, the most inherited.
Of course, this first child is better than a boy. If it were a girl, in a feudal society, there would be no right to inherit.
"Don't talk about this, what's going on outside!" Su Xiaoxiao diverted the topic at this time.
"It's settled, don't worry about things outside, you go and rest first, leave it to us here!" Song Ningxue hurriedly said to Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head.
"Out of the way, I'd like to see these steam engines assembled!"
When the two girls heard this, although they were a little worried, they could only rely on Su Xiaoxiao.
This seamless steel pipe steam engine was designed by the three of them together, or rather, according to the information left by Jiang Chao, and then, after several scrutiny and experiments, the result was obtained.
After all, Murong Mingxuan is now in the Yelang Clan, and relying on the skills of the Yelang Clan alone is not enough. Sometimes they have to innovate themselves with technology.
These women in Jiang Chao are now all trained to become engineers. They want to help Jiang Chao, and they like to study.
Therefore, they have now faintly become the technical directors of the backer village.
On the other side, among the Yelang clan, Dong Liyue is also holding a four-month belly, supervising the development of all aspects. She was almost a few days apart from Su Xiaoxiao, and she was pregnant.
It's just that who gives birth first depends on whose child in the womb wants to be born first.
Although the development of the Night Clan was slower than that of the mountain village, at the beginning, due to the large number of people, the development quickly caught up with the mountain village.
But soon, as there were more and more people in the backer village, the Yelang clan was relatively slowed down a lot.
However, because more and more people came to the mountain village later, and the number of people was saturated, Su Xiaoxiao decided to use merchant ships to transport some of the people who defected to the Yelang clan by merchant ships.
Of course, Dongliyue is very welcoming to these Han people, after all, the current number of Yelang people can no longer meet the needs of production. They are in dire need of manpower.
The arrival of these displaced people is tantamount to solving this problem. The development of the Yelang clan also quickly caught up with the mountain village.
It has even begun to slowly surpass the mountain villages. Dong Liyue would often be in his residence, looking at the long river in front of him, and looking at the end of the long river.
She really wanted to see one day, Jiang Chao returned to the Yelang clan on a merchant ship. She wanted to tell Jiang Chao that they had children of their own.
Jiang Chao still didn't know that she already had two children. She sometimes wondered what Jiang Chao's expression would be when she saw the child.
