With 60 points exchanged for 150 points, which means that the next upgrade can be continued, Downing quickly returned to the neat punk factory and opened the main console.

Many of the options in the weapon menu consume too many points, but many options in the life menu consume less points, and once completed, you can get more points, and the points can be more and more.

The steampunk factory was set up with good intentions to avoid the Federal Empire's recklessness.

With this in mind, Tang Ning continued to choose among the options in life.

"Fresh water purification system!"

At present, the drinking water mainly comes from the ground, and most of it is well water and stagnant water after rain, which is not clean, which also causes some health problems.

Thinking of this, he immediately clicked on the freshwater essence system.

Immediately afterwards, I saw some advanced production tools in the life menu, such as milling machines, now wheat flour is mainly hand-ground stone-based, and what comes out is semolina, not fine, and corn, which is mainly cooked, if it can be processed into corn flour, it will be more convenient to eat, and fruits, now fruits have no way to be stored for a long time.

The machines are used for vacuum packaging or for the further processing of fruits, such as juices and jams, as well as preserved fruits.

Constantly clicking on these options in the life menu, a lot of machinery has entered the processing stage, anyway, now that the energy problem has been solved, there are so many things that can be realized with electricity.

In two weeks, all these machines were baked, and after the production of the neat punk factory, these machines were also thoughtfully equipped with manuals, so there was no problem in use.

Within the Federal Empire!

"Wait, get in line, it's my turn. ”

A woman with two children pushes corn and wheat in a wheelbarrow to the processing area, where the corn and wheat sacks are unloaded and poured into the processing machine, and immediately the other end is made of white flour, as well as golden corn flour.

When the processing was finished, the woman carried all the finished products to the trolley, took out two subi, and then left with envy from everyone.

The machinery for the fine processing of coarse grains is too large, so the state-run model adopted by Tangning, the people only need to pay two subi to process, the price is very cheap, and it also solves the employment problem of some people.

Romero, as Chancellor of the Exchequer, stood on the sidelines, curiously watching the huge machinery in motion, and his heart was shocked.

"His Majesty has never seen such a thing before. ”

With the development of deep processing, many new commodities have been produced, and the variety of commodities on the market has reached thousands, and the business atmosphere is unprecedentedly prosperous, and there are quite some scenes of the scientific and technological era.

And with the improvement of these aspects of people's livelihood, Tangning's points are still growing wildly.

More than 800 points have been reached.

He found a rule, in terms of developing people's livelihood, as long as you click down in the order next to each other on the menu, you don't need to consider whether the points ratio of consumption and exchange is cost-effective.

So he lit some weaving cloth one after another, household lamps, electric heaters, and so on.

After two months, the standard of living in the Federal Empire had reached the level of the previous world at the beginning of the 20th century.

Thinking about it, it took about three months to walk the road that took thousands of years to complete in the previous world, and Tang Ning couldn't believe it.

However, at this time, he found that clicking on the items in the life menu was no longer cost-effective, because the points consumed began to be more than the points obtained.

Now the number of points has reached 1400 again.

Since the life aspect is no longer cost-effective, it is necessary to start upgrading the weapon aspect.

Standing in front of the main console of the steampunk factory, Tang Ning clicked on the weapon menu, cold weapons don't need to be considered at this time, and they can completely make hot weapons.

The Beretta 92 he used was obviously lacking in firepower, and he chose it for a long time, and finally chose the M16 rifle used in later generations, and the enemy he envisioned in his mind was not those who had taken refuge, but monsters on the ground.

The M16 rifle consumes 800 points at once, and then only needs to provide enough materials to be able to manufacture indefinitely.

Originally, the bullets were also made from obsidian made by witches, and with the level of a steampunk factory, it was not difficult to make this stone, which is rich in immense powers, into bullets.

This bullet manufacturing cost another 200 points.

Looking at the remaining 400 points on the point card, Tang Ning temporarily stopped the desire to continue climbing the technology tree, and these points had to be kept for more important places in the future.

Soon all the warframes were taken back and restructured, and the M16 and Obsidian Warblades were integrated on the Obsidian Warframe II, which was extremely integrated.

Waiting until all the Warframes were taken offline and reissued, Downing made a startling discovery.

Holman had all the soldiers lined up in their newly integrated armor, and then walked neatly in front of the young king and the people of the Confederation Empire.

Tang Ning looked at the soldiers and hesitated for a long time to ask.

"Holman how many people are there in the Guard now?"

Holman stood respectfully to the side, saluted, and smirked in response.

"Your Majesty, now the number of guards of the Federal Empire has reached 5,000 people. ”

5,000 guards...... Downing didn't expect the number of soldiers in the Guard to rise so quickly.

Then he turned to Fran next to him.

"What is the total population of our federal empire?"

Fran, who was now wearing gold-rimmed glasses made of obsidian, flipped through the tool bag he was holding, and pulled out a blank paper from it.

Nowadays, due to the development of technology, parchment paper has been eliminated and has become a modern white paper made of wood.

He looked at it for a while, and then replied respectfully.

"Your Majesty, our total population has reached 500,000, the population of the capital of the Union Empire is about 270,000, and the town of Ironwood is about 70,000, the town of York is about 80,000, and the town of Black Pine is about 80,000, and that's it. ”

Tang Ning was stunned, he knew about Ironwood Town and the so-called capital, but he really didn't know when Yorktown and Black Pine Town would have these two territories.

Seeing the young king's puzzled look, Fran immediately explained with a smile.

"You've been worrying about the mechanical production all this time, you must not have read the documents I reported to you carefully, our cabinet has worked out some strategies during this time, the foreign secretary has discussed with Birmingham and then negotiated with the progressive people of Yorktown and Black Pine, and then we held a council meeting, and after the unanimous approval we provided some help, and then the progressive people there revolted with our support, and these two lands were incorporated into our federal empire. ”

After hearing the explanation, Tang Ning wanted to laugh inexplicably.

He's been obsessed with steampunk factory things, and he doesn't even know any of that.

But what is even more gratifying is that without itself now, the cabinet and parliament of the Federal Empire have been able to function reasonably and normally, so that they will have much less to worry about in the future.

At this time, Holman on the side was a little dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty, our guards have been training for a long time, and we originally planned to help by force, but Fran refused. ”

The soldiers have been training for a long time, and of course they need to test the results of their training and new weapons, and Holman has no problem with his ideas.

Tang Ning pondered for a moment, looked at the soldiers in front of him wearing the second generation of obsidian armor, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then lowered his voice.

"Holman, I did not build this mighty guard to defeat the rulers of the Vaults. ”

Holman was stunned.

Downing patted Holman on the shoulder.

"We can't stay underground forever, and even if we take all the shelters, we won't be able to meet the population growth in the future, so we're going to defeat the monsters and get back to the surface. ”

Hearing the young king's plan, Holman looked surprised and was speechless for a long time.

"Face the monster...... We...... Will it work?"

Tang Ning got up and waved to the people who came to see the excitement, and responded with a solemn expression on his head.

"If you can't do it, you'll find out if you try it. ”
