Chapter 938: The Great Instrument (II)

March

A full month after the last time, the second batch of fleet support arrived as scheduled.

Because Ye Qing was not there, Cao Cao was the person with the highest position in the old collar, so he personally went to the port to greet him, his mood was not only eager, but also a little impatient.

There is a shortage of skilled workers in railway construction, the construction period has been greatly delayed, and the segmented competition and reward mechanism has been implemented, and the effect is some, which is not enough to recover the lost progress.

The former is characteristic of an agricultural society, and the latter is unique to an industrial society, but in fact they are both good experiences.

The premise is that there must be masters and instructors, and it is expected that there will be old workers to build a inheritance and training mechanism.

This time, the aura fountain in the sea hundreds of miles west of the harbor did not erupt, and the North Sea ice floe formed in the spring warmth, so it could not reach this sea area, and the trip was very punctual, and the mast of the sea ship was seen at noon.

Boats appeared on the horizon, clear enough to be seen by ordinary people as they approached.

"One, two, three...... Eight, nine...... Seventeen, eighteen?" and several of the officials who came with them were astonished, which was twice as many as the last time they had been on a sea boat!

"The counterattack is over, and the demand for capacity of the East China Sea Youth League is no longer urgent...... The king called nine more big ships to Xianmen. Cao Cao looked around with a smile and said casually.

As soon as the order was given, the flag to welcome the friendly ship was immediately sounded, and the crowd in the harbor work area became lively, and began to guide the port and prepare for unloading......

In fact, the thirst for maritime transportation power in the overseas neo-colonial areas is insatiable, and even if there is no hard demand for war materials, there is also a hard demand for civilian goods, which is to put forward some demands with the bait of the railway that runs through the ten territories......

In addition to Ye Qing's own ship, a total of nine ships were squeezed out of the nine territories, plus two ships supported by Qingmu Island and Banshan Island, and seven ships of the seven Qingmai princes in Qingzhou, Jiangzhou, and Ezhou along the coast, there were a total of eighteen ships, breaking through the bottleneck of the "air, land, and sea" 10,000-mile transshipment line......

Further down is the production bottleneck, the cooperation between Yingxiang and the Northern Wei Dynasty has deepened, and most of the production capacity will be used for the expansion and upgrading of its own factories, and this year's support quota has not been squeezed out.

Cao Cao has not been involved in the past, but recently established a center from scratch, big and small troubles, only to know how complex the industry is, the elements of each link are interlocking, and the entire Hanhou Mansion works together to achieve this miracle of concealment.

"Now...... It's up to us in the Eastern Han Dynasty. He strode up to meet the meteor, anxious, ignoring the splash of the ship as it approached the dock.

The six ships that came down were carrying people, and some officials presented the list: "Prime minister, 2,000 displaced people, 1,000 apprentices, 300 skilled workers." ”

"But in the future, there will be 40,000 displaced people. ”

Cao Cao frowned, in general, there are far fewer displaced people in the interior than expected......

This is directly related to the fact that the foreign ship clearance is basically over, and the princes of the state have attracted displaced people to resume production in the beginning of spring.

Cao Cao saw that Lu Meng was going to give him a court salute, so he hurriedly stepped forward and smiled: "How dare you be polite, how many supplies are there?"

Lu Meng smiled and handed over the booklet: "It is mainly the core magic weapon for refining steel and copper, with it, you can build a blast furnace, and there is a special double base leaf fire mine, three complete sets of equipment for making zuò fire mines, and prefabricated steel rails, road studs and locomotives......"

"The carriage was too long and too big to fit into a sea ship, so I only transported the chassis of the carriage over......

"There is also a steel bar, a hundred catties, stacked neatly. ”

"Okay, with this, I don't have to worry about it!"

Cao Cao is overjoyed, the railway has been laid to Xiangquan City in the past few days, so that the assembly of freight trains, the road construction materials can be directly transported to the end of the tracks, the speed is undoubtedly greatly accelerated, and it is expected that the railway will be repaired to Qingqianfeng on the summer solstice, providing support for the transportation arteries for the construction of the new city of the national capital.

And Ye Huolei solved the urgent needs of the front line...... Even if he coordinates the rear, he knows very well that without the victory of the front, there will be no stable production in the rear.

As for the steel bars, before they were produced, weapons, farm tools, and shipbuilding were all urgently needed, which really solved the urgent need.

Thinking like this, Cao Cao's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Is there any new military support?"

"Nope. Lu Meng shook his head regretfully, and saw that the officials around him were busy, so he lowered his voice and said, "There are no ordinary Taoist soldiers, but there are two more ladies here......

When Cao Cao heard this, his expression was slightly solemn: "Which two are on the boat? ”

"They are not on the boat...... Lu Meng's face was slightly weird, and he coughed lightly: "In the Spiritual Qi Sea Ridge, the two ladies said that this ridge was good, so they jumped down." ”

Jumped into the sea?

Cao Cao opened his mouth wide and woke up: "It's the Dragon Girl?"

"Shh......h The water government system has little to do with the human world...... It was the internal transfer of the Shuifu to preside over the development of the sea areas on both sides of Dongzhou......"

Speaking of this, his voice was lower: "This belongs to the category of the Black Water Ocean, and these two coastal seas are afraid to exceed Taiping Lake, I really don't know how the Lord operates...... Now these two seas are our territory. ”

Cao Cao said in his heart that it was no wonder that there was no increase in troops, and there was a dragon god presiding over the sea area, which was better than tens of thousands of troops.

The dragon girl's itinerary is secret, it is inconvenient to say more, the two tacitly changed the topic, Cao Cao left the officials on the dock to preside over the unloading of materials, and sent officials to personally take the displaced people and workers to the city to rest, and tomorrow they will be sent on the road to explore, today to entertain well, drink and eat all.

Lu Meng was very interested in this wild new land: "I want to take advantage of the half day before the return of the sea ship to visit the neighborhood, does Meng De have a hospitality?"

"I'll call someone to guide you on the way. ”

Cao Cao smiled and said that he was busy and had no time to entertain, so let people take Lu Meng for a walk around.

………………

The deep sea water, only three hundred meters down, the water pressure is very strong, only a few creatures swim, full of aura, two snow-white slender shadows swimming, constantly going deep into the sea ridge, following the aura vein to find.

After a while, Hate Yun turned around and turned towards the trench between the mountains: "Sister, here!"

"Hmm...... Be careful!" The rain rushed at her.

"Boom" water surged, a huge pitch-black figure stood up, holding a fork with both arms to the snow-white dragon shadow, but the brilliance flashed, the fork fell into the mud, the figure looked around vigilantly, disappeared the enemy just now, pulled out the fork to deal with the rain, and suddenly someone patted it on the shoulder: "I'm here." ”

He looked back suddenly, and was greeted by a black electric light like the sea, and the thunder exploded in the water, and his whole body was immediately scorched.

The rain rushed in, and the dragon's horn pierced its neck, and the huge figure struggled twice with its hands on the hole in its neck, shrinking and shrinking in the gurgling blood, turning into a three-foot lobster corpse...... This is a shrimp demon, a relatively low-end species in the sequence of the Black Water Ocean Demon Clan, at least from the perspective of the Dragon Clan.

"Ah, it's a lobster! I like to eat it!" Hate Yun was very happy, dragging the corpse of the shrimp demon and continuing to descend, the rain turned back into a human form, and followed behind, looking at his sister with some amusement and love.

Sure enough, within a few dozen steps, I saw the cave protected by the shrimp demon just now, which was very deep, and the rich Hede spiritual energy gushed out endlessly, which was an important node for the intersection of the undersea spiritual veins between Dongzhou and the mainland.

After a shocking rain investigation, his eyes lit up, and he took out the utensils and began to set up a formation: "In the future, this will be our cave house." ”

"We came single, without a soldier or general, but as long as we can establish a system and canonize the water demon, maybe we can establish the Crystal Palace. ”

"It's early in the Crystal Palace, let's come up with a name first!" Hate Yun cleared the water and garbage inside, made a clearing, and set up a roasted lobster: "It's called Yunyu Cave Mansion?"

Shocking rain spit: "Not good." ”

"Haha, sister, you actually want to call Qingyun Yudong Mansion, right?" Ha Yun said, no matter if my sister had to object, she engraved a few words on the top of the cave mansion and said, "It's called Yunyu Qing...... He's smaller than us, and we can't let him take advantage. ”

Frightened and sullen, they roasted lobsters to eat together, and pulled my sister up: "Go see your husband first, or he will be worried, we can take our time for others!"

Hate Yun smiled secretly, not revealing her eagerness, in fact...... I miss that guy too, but I haven't seen him for ten days.

………………

In the evening, when the unloading of the sea ship was almost completed, Lu Meng returned, and Cao Cao took him to have a light meal in the canteen of the Eastern Han Dynasty Government Bureau.

"The king's capital is also. Lu Meng said with emotion, and said sincerely: "Although I only walked around the port city, I can see that Mengde's governance is beyond my reach." ”

"The county seat has been built, and the law has been laid, especially this huàn and the national field system, as well as the clothes and language ...... of the Han family."

"In time, this will be the land of the Han Dynasty. ”

"I'm ashamed, these are the lord's big policies, and I take over mainly to act according to orders, and I don't dare to take credit!" Cao Cao waved his hand, a little happy, he wholeheartedly implemented the new Han system here, and gradually formed in cities, ports, and settlements...... The dragon qi of the Han family was born because of this.

This sense of expectation can't be said to others, and because Qin Wan'er is here at home, it is not good to have a deep talk with the two wives, and now it is recognized and praised by Hanchen's colleagues, can you be happy?

Evoking this topic, Lu Meng looked left and right, and made a look, Cao Cao waved his hand to retreat the servants who served, raised the barrier, and looked at the young general: "What did Ziming say?"

"Do you remember the four-year period?" asked Lu Meng.

Cao Cao's face was slightly moved, and he asked, "Is it becoming?"

"No!" Lu Meng waved his hand to make him not nervous, and said, "But I heard that the King of Wei has been fusing the fourth cave heaven, and the lord has recalled Emperor Wa and Sanqing to Nanlian Mountain, and it is rumored that the yang energy in the cave is suddenly flourishing......"

"This Gu and the lord of the implementation of the green system, the degree of transformation is several times that of ordinary Dongtian, but it is said that this is also related to Meng De's development of Dongzhou with the lord doppelganger, there is no cave in the wilderness, and it can't attract external demons, but it itself enhances the luck of the power, and in turn nourishes and promotes the Tianyang of Nanlian Cave. ”

"That's why it's a sign!"

"How long will it take?" Cao Cao listened, his heart pounded, his hands were a little sweaty, he had been in the soil for one or two hundred years, and he didn't know what happened to the Cao family......

Parents, children and grandchildren, and many brothers and relatives, who are not real people, are afraid that they have all turned into dry bones.

"I don't know, it's just a secret rumor. Lu Meng said, with a little confidence: "You will always be one step ahead of others, and that's enough." ”

He poured himself another glass and drank it, and looked at the sky outside: "It's okay, Meng will leave and go back." ”

"I'll send you. Cao Cao pressed his mood, drank a glass of wine in one gulp, and said.
