After Grandpa Fu left, Jiang Xingchen immediately rushed to the university, and the production of anti-aircraft guns had to be stepped up, and after hearing the news, he always had a feeling that the storm was coming.

There are two of Starling's current arsenals, and the larger one is in the Cursed Lands. The scale of the Star Territory is smaller, mainly for experimental research of new weapons and the production of mortars, which is also one of the few industries that have not been relocated.

That night, all the large machinery in the munitions factory was in operation, and the craftsmen were given urgent tasks and had to work overtime from now on.

Jiang Xingchen, on the other hand, took a copy of the anti-aircraft shooting design pattern and prepared to rush to the Cursed Land early tomorrow morning, where the shells needed to be manufactured, and the production capacity here could not be reached.

Coming out of the university, the cool breeze at night made Jiang Xingchen's mind clear, his tense emotions slowly relaxed, and he calmed down a little bit.

The pace slowed down, Jiang Xingchen went through this matter again from beginning to end, and suddenly a thought came to him, does this ship have anything to do with the An family.

"When the son of the An family escaped, it was like the world evaporated, will he escape to the other side of the deep ocean, although the waves of the deep ocean are high, and the big monsters are rampant, but it may not be impossible to escape. Isn't the ghost ship just floating over, the son of the An family once researched the bomb, and once stole the railroad steam engine, and he also knows it well, that is to say, as long as the material problem is solved, the steam engine can be built, with the steam engine, the smelting industry will develop rapidly, and with the foundation of the bomb, the cannonball may not be impossible to study."

The more Jiang Xingchen thought about it. The more he felt that the big ship that attacked the black waves was related to the An family. He had only been reappearing for two years since he disappeared, and then the ship appeared. If that ship came with the purpose of exchange and trade, how could it fire on the ship of the Black Waves. At that time, the ship of the Black Wave had no ill will.

Other than that. The son of the An family himself has a strong research ability, and he knows that he has developed manganese ore in Xuanyuan Tianzong. Of course, the son of the An family also knows. Manganese reduction is not difficult, but it is charcoal plus yuanshi, as long as the manganese ore is found, the other party has a great possibility of figuring out manganese steel

Jiang Xingchen walked slower and slower, and finally simply sat down on the side of the road, thinking that in the end, he had completely connected this ship with the An family's son, no matter how he analyzed it. are the most suspicious of the An family.

"Steam engine, cannon! Jiang Xingchen exhaled, a little glad in his heart, the decision to sell the steam engine was really the right one. In order to fight himself, the son of the An family will definitely not cherish himself, and these technologies will be sold to mainland countries, and the other party has a history in this regard, and the other party has sold paper and bombs.

However, the cannon Jiang Xingchen did not plan to sell it like a steam engine. Even if the son of An Jia researched the cannon, it would definitely not be comparable to his own, and the seamless steel pipe needed cold drilling technology. No matter how high the level of the An family is, it is impossible to study this.

That is, the ship's cannon should not perform as well as the cannon on its own side. The reason why the ship that sank the Black Wave was mainly because the Black Wave Pirates were caught off guard. Attack at close range, not to mention artillery. Even if a bomb is fired, it can still sink the ship.

The only thing that Jiang Xingchen couldn't figure out now was the speed of the other party's boat, why it was so fast. It is impossible to use sails, which have been tested many times by the shipyard. Unless it's a steam engine. However, he would never believe that the other party had researched the propeller

It wasn't until late at night that Jiang Xingchen stood up from the side of the road. Hurried back to the Lord's Palace.

The lights in the room were still on, and it was clear that the two wives were still waiting for them to come home. Jiang Xingchen was inexplicably moved when he saw it. What a big black ship, what Nangong Shizi was left behind

Early the next morning, the ribs and more than a dozen night owls were waiting at the top of the back mountain early, and Jiang Xingchen and the old man came with more than a dozen private soldiers and craftsmen, followed by a large group of people.

Tang Chuxue was pregnant, and the job of protecting Jiang Xingchen fell on the old man again. And this time to go to the Cursed Land will not be short, Tang Chuxue and Mei'er are a little reluctant.

Jiang Xingchen didn't want to leave his wife, but now that Xingchen was under the threat of An Jia's son, he had to prepare in all aspects. This time I went to the Cursed Land, not only to meet the pirates of the Black Waves to ask about the details of the big black ship, but also to install the steam engine on the ship. In addition, there is the production of weapons, and now whether it is a brand new shell or a rifle bullet, he has to participate in it himself. Pressing the Yuan Qi into the Yuan Stone, and the Yuan Stone Cutting, no one else can do it except him!

As the sun rises, the chops and night owls chirp a few times and spread their wings and soar into the sky

Just when Jiang Xingchen and the others rushed to the cursed land, Grandpa Fu's side had prepared the new supplement of Xingchen Monthly after a night of fighting. There were not many preparations in a hurry, but there were only more than 10,000 copies, and there were only a dozen copies per sales point when they were distributed.

In order to spread all over the continent as soon as possible, Grandpa Fu used all the night owls left at home to help deliver the goods and the people who received the goods were stunned, why are there only a dozen copies, aren't there usually hundreds of copies, what is the situation.

But as curious as they were, the people were smart and no one asked. Anyway, I will sell as much as I want, and I will cause trouble if I talk too much!

As soon as the supplement was put on the shelves, someone found out and immediately bought a copy.

Turning the first page is an advertisement: Xingchen Collar Desk Clock is about to be sold, please ask the World Commercial House for details

"Haha, it's finally time to sell clocks!" The person reading the monthly magazine let out a low cry, and his eyes lit up. Since the construction of the clock tower, people have become familiar with the new way of keeping time, and many families have long wanted to eliminate the hourglass, but the grandfather clock of the star collar has not been sold, which makes people depressed. For the grandfather clock of the big fat man of the Li family, he was so envious that he was blue-eyed.

"What?" When the shopkeeper of the sales point heard this, he hurriedly picked up a supplement and flipped through it. He also wanted to buy a grandfather clock.

"I'll make it!" As soon as the shopkeeper opened it, before he could look at it, he heard the man burst out of a foul language and yelled: "It's really fake, you actually want to open the steam engine?"

"What?" The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and his eyes subconsciously looked for it in the supplement, and then, like that person, he burst into a foul mouth: "I made it up, I really want to sell steam engines!"

At this time, the person who bought the monthly magazine has already run out, this is a big deal, I have to notify my family to buy it quickly, who knows if Xingchen Ling is sold in limited quantities, and if you miss this opportunity, you may not be able to buy it again.

He just walked on the front foot, and the shopkeeper on the back foot also ran out, and there is a manufacturing industry at home, who doesn't covet the steam engine, not to mention the labor savings, and the efficiency can be increased dozens of times.

There were dozens of sales points of the Xingchen monthly magazine throughout the emperor, and within a few minutes the news spread, or should it be said to have exploded. Among the merchants, the aristocracy, and the wealthy class, it was indeed an explosive influence.

"Is it true that Xingchen Ling no longer restricts the sale of steam engines?"

"The supplements of Xingchen Monthly have been published, and there is absolutely no mistake!"

"Where's the supplement, show me!"

"Look at the fart, there are only a dozen copies in total at each point of sale, and they have already been snatched up!"

"Don't fool me anymore, can you?"

"Yes, I'm the fooling you, believe it or not, I'm going to the world business house to inquire now, don't follow me!"

"Don't mind, big brother, big brother, wait, are you selling it in the world trading house?"

The news spread outward at a speed of shocking airwaves, and within two hours, it had already spread to the upper echelons of the imperial capital. The entrance of the Tianxia Commercial Bank was crowded with people for a short time, all inquiring about the sale of steam engines. In the palace, the Emperor Qiankun was alarmed, and while writing a letter to Xingchen Ling to confirm, he summoned all the high-ranking officials to come over to discuss.

The release of the steam engine is too much for the current empire. Now that all the territories are engaged in construction, there is simply not enough personnel, and if there are enough steam engines, more labor can be freed up.

In addition, the efficiency of the steam engine is far from being comparable to manpower, and the economic value generated is immeasurable.

More importantly, it is used to study large machinery. There are a lot of things that other forces can't do, isn't it just a lack of large machinery? Parts processing, the development of metal manufacturing, many things are needed.

While the Emperor on the palace side was excitedly studying the purchase with a group of high-level officials, the merchants and nobles of other realms also saw the supplement, and they were all crazy with excitement.

"Hurry up and go to the world trading house!"

"What are you doing there, it's all said in the supplement, there can't be a fake, no need to ask!"

"Who said that if you inquire, let's go and book first? I don't know how many people are staring at it now, and you will definitely not be able to buy it if you go late! Whoever uses the steam engine first will make money first!"

"How do you know that Xingchen comprehends the sale of steam engines through the World Merchant House!"

"Do you still need to think about it, almost all of Xingchenling's products are through the world's commercial firms!"

"Not necessarily this time, steam engine, don't go!"

"I don't have time to listen to your here, love is not going to go"

Almost all the territories have conversations like this, and every branch of the world's trading houses is overcrowded, and it is impossible to do normal business. The director of the business bank said that he had not received the news yet, but the people didn't care at all, they just didn't leave, which made the director very depressed.

And Wang Shuangyang, Nan Jianghou, Wu Tianfeng, Wei Ning, Chen Xuangan and others, who had a good relationship with Jiang Xingchen, set off to Xingchen as soon as they knew the news, and directly purchased from Jiang Xingchen more than contacting the world commercial bank for accounting.

At the same time, on the side of the imperial capital, the second prince, the old marquis, and Feng Xuanzhang also hurried to the star collar.

And at this time, the swift eagles from all over the empire soared into the sky and flew to all parts of the continent.

The next day, without waiting for the supplement to be delivered to the sales points of the four neutral kingdoms, the news had already spread across the continent. Shocked, the top brass of all the forces sprang into action to secure the first batch of steam engines from the stars. (To be continued.) )
