The land of April exudes a fresh and moist atmosphere and is full of vitality.
Ji Lieyan, who was dressed in fiery red armor, leisurely paced into the City Lord's Mansion in Jinzhou City, flew up and kicked open the door of the lobby, and shouted, "Family Master, when are we going to fight?"
The two men in the hall quickly turned their heads to look at her.
Ji Lieyan looked at it and couldn't help laughing, "Xiaojian, which little lady is here?" ”
Ji Aojian was so shocked that he was almost speechless, "Fifth sister, why don't you even know her?"
Ji Lieyan listened and couldn't help rubbing his eyes, "Well, it does look familiar...... Could it be that this is my childhood sweetheart, who has always had a crush on me, so he came from his hometown to find me?"
Before she could finish speaking, a teacup lid smashed into her eye sockets, followed by a crisp angry voice in her ears, "Childhood sweetheart who saw your ghost, I'm your eighth sister!"
This girl with upside down willow eyebrows and angry eyes is none other than her eighth lady Ji Shuijing.
After Ji Lieyan was smashed, he sighed, "Eighth sister, you and I have grown up together since childhood, and it is not wrong to say that you are childhood sweethearts." ”
Ji Shuijing's face was still grim, "There's nothing wrong with anything, it's all your fault." ”
Ji Lieyan laughed, "Even if it's my fault." Little mirror, I haven't seen you for a long time, the more beautiful you are. ”
Ji Shuijing suddenly laughed and said softly, "Fifth sister, you have also grown taller." ”
The fifth lady straightened her waist and said proudly, "Xiaojing just has a vision, and even I can see this, Ben Shao has always been tall and burly." As soon as he stood up, he had the temperament of Yuanyu Yuezhi. ”
Ji Ao said with a sword, "You are indeed very tall. The eighth sister is only as tall as you when she sits. ”
......
Ji Lieyan glared at him fiercely, "Don't talk nonsense." Turning his face, he said to Ji Shuijing cordially, "Xiaojing, you came to the Northeast to play with us this time, how long do you plan to stay?"
Ji Shuijing smiled lightly, "I'm not here to play." It's here to invest. ”
"Aren't you going to open a factory in Nanyang, and you have a lot of plans?" Ji Lieyan found a high chair and sat down, shaking a pair of boots that couldn't step on the ground. "I know, there must be a bad investment environment there, so you have to come to our side. ”
Ji Shuijing sighed softly, "Fifth sister, what you said is right. I wanted to make iron and build ships in Nanyang. I tossed for a year and didn't get it. ”
Ji Lieyan is sympathetic. "You can't find an iron ore mine over there, right, it's a bit difficult to open a factory. ”
Ji Shuijing shook his head, "Not only that, the most important thing is that there are no suitable workers there at all." ”
Ji Lieyan craned his neck, "What do you say?"
Ji Shuijing said, "Ironmaking and shipbuilding are all hard work. The natives of Nanyang are short. I don't have enough energy, and I can't do heavy work at all. ”
Ji Aojian followed. "Fifth sister, I heard that ninety-nine out of a hundred men over there are not as tall as you. ”
Ji Lieyan glared at him again, "You don't talk nonsense." Suddenly, he thought thoughtfully, "Could it be that Nanyang is my blessed land, should I go there to exhibit?"
Ji Shuijing continued, "It's just a little weak, the key is that people are still greedy and lazy, far less hard-working than our compatriots." ”
Ji Lieyan rolled his eyes, "It sounds like these natives look like monkeys." ”
Ji Aojian coughed, "That's right, these monkeys can't afford to play heavy industry, let them do some light processing is the limit, and it is estimated that there will be no change in a few hundred years." ”
Ji Lieyan nodded, "Monkey, let's grow bananas, I can't expect more." But my Chinese people are so hard-working and hard-working, can't I just immigrate more people to come?"
Ji Shuijing said with a smile, "Fifth sister, as I said just now, there is a lack of coal and iron resources over there. ”
Ji Ao Kendao, "Besides, heavy industry is a strategic industry, and those islands in the South Seas have no depth at all, and the fleets of several friendly people are surrounded by a dozen of them, and all shipyards and munitions factories will be lost." ”
Ji Lieyan slapped his palm and said, "Sure enough, my Great Northeast is the most suitable as a war base, there is coal and steel here, and it is the hinterland of the Big 6, so don't worry about accidents." ”
Ji Shuijing smiled softly, "I discussed with the head of the family just now, and I plan to form a military industrial group." ”
Ji Lieyan asked, "What is a group?"
Ji Shuijing said, "Many factories are united together, and it is the group. The head of the family said that my family's coal yard, iron yard, ship yard, and gun factory are all under the name of the arms group. ”
Ji Lieyan touched his chin, "We have opened a lot of factories outside the Guan, and if you have Xiaojing to join the investment, the scale of this group will definitely be very large." ”
But she immediately sighed, "It's just that we can only make guns now, not cannons." ”
Ji Shuijing showed a smile in his eyes, "Why is this?"
Ji Lie said, "The head of the family originally negotiated with the British minister to build a gun factory in the northeast. After the friendly people went back to discuss it, they didn't want us to make our own guns, so they refused to provide the artillery production line. So we can only make guns, and at present, we are still making earthen guns, and the production equipment of standard rifles has not yet been shipped by the British. ”
Ji Shuijing smiled, "The head of the family said, this is called a technical blockade. ”
Ji Lieyan said wistfully, "This is indeed a technical blockade, what can be done?"
Ji Ao kendao, "Eighth sister has a way. ”
Ji Lieyan jumped down from the high chair, "Really?"
Ji Ao Kendao, "Now that the industrial revolution has entered the middle and late stages, there are more and more senior technicians, and it will naturally spread outward. The United States is attracting skilled immigrants with high salaries, and a large number of Europeans have passed, and even many Britons have broken through the national blockade and secretly run over there to make money. ”
Ji Lieyan's eyes lit up, "You mean, we can also use high salaries to poach technicians in Europe?"
Ji Ao said, "The eighth sister started the year before last, and she has already brought in a large group of people, just waiting for the coal and steel munitions factory to open." ”
Ji Lieyan suddenly realized, "No wonder Xiaojing came to open a factory, there are technical talents in hand and can't use it, it's really depressing." ”
Ji Shuijing smiled, "I brought an engineer Mr. Smith this time, and I will introduce you to the fifth sister later." ”
Ji Lieyan exclaimed, "Is this person still an engineer?"
Ji Shuijing said, "Of course he is an engineer, and he also instructed Xiaojian to repair the boiler in Suzhou the year before last." ”
Ji Lieyan nodded, "That's the time, I heard that at that time, you asked Xiao Jian to jump off the boiler if he couldn't repair it, and martyred himself in the furnace?"
Ji Shuijing smiled reluctantly, "How could Xiao Jian be such a scientific person, how could he jump down." By the way, fifth sister, the head of the family said that he wanted to give the military-industrial group a name. ”
Ji Lieyan said happily, "You must have a majestic name to show the style of the military factory." ”
Ji Shuijing said, "It seems that you already have an idea, fifth sister, so it's better for you to say it first." ”
Ji Lieyan said confidently, "In my opinion, it is called the Little Girl Military Industrial Group, and the name must be loud." ”
The two of them were very surprised, and Ji Shuijing said, "May I ask the fifth sister, why is the little girl so famous, and what is the origin?"
Ji Lie said, "Isn't the munitions factory a product of the West, I heard that there is a very famous fairy tale in the West called "The Little Girl Who Sold Arms", so we grabbed this name and immediately became widely known." ”
Ji Shuijing muttered, "The little girl who sells arms?
Ji Aojian coughed, "Fifth sister, did you hear about "The Little Match Girl"?"
"This ......"
Ji Lieyan's eyes widened, "Is that so? But matches and munitions sound similar, right?" (To be continued......)
