Chapter 1765: The wharf is built and the railway is connected
The old man was stunned and turned into a genius, and he was fooled by Jiang Xingchen again. He was so angry that he jumped into the secret library and scolded the little bastard in a sinister way. Xiaolong covered his mouth and laughed secretly. He was nagged by the old guy for a long time just now, and now he was relieved.
The old man turned around and glared at Xiaolong fiercely, then ran out of the secret library.
After leaving the basement, Jiang Xingchen kept lowering his head and pondering, and searching the information he had just connected together over and over again. Although he made a big step forward, these are all superficial things. What is the essence of the mercury ball, why it can affect people's consciousness, what is the relationship with the Great Shang Dynasty, and the essence of the formation. There is no clue about these.
"Chuxue, I want to raise a group of secret scholars and form an intelligence department!" Jiang Xingchen thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head and said.
"Harve a secret son? Are you thinking?" Tang Chuxue was a little surprised. The first reaction in her mind was that her husband was going to fight for hegemony.
Jiang Xingchen shook his head and explained: "We have too few sources of information. Many times we get news from cooperative businesses, which is very unfavorable for us to control the trends of all parties."
Jiang Xingchen had never considered this issue before. This time, he was able to send out the snake and the number of people he could send was limited, so he realized the shortcomings in this regard. Just by sending more than 100 people to investigate the news about the mercury ball, it was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
After connecting the information, he thought of a direction, which was the Da Shang ruins. The so-called Da Shang ruins do not refer to the Da Shang royal family, but the ruins left by all parts of the Da Shang Dynasty. In the early years, Xuanyuan Tianzong, Chongming Island, Ahong Island, and other forces have discovered them. Since it is concluded that the mercury ball is related to Da Shang, perhaps clues can be found from the Da Shang ruins.
However, at this time, the manpower problem became an obstacle again. There were not enough secrets to investigate and monitor any abnormal movements in various places, so it was impossible to find anything. So Jiang Xingchen mentioned this to Tang Chuxue.
Tang Chuxue smiled and said, "I'll do this. We have developed business in Xingchen. You can set up more shops in various places. Or you can directly cooperate with local businesses. You can just find a reason to send people there. In addition, you can also send reporters to Xingchen Monthly, but it's not easy to find trustworthy people!"
When Tang Chuxue said this, her eyes shone brightly. She thought more than Jiang Xingchen, not only in terms of intelligence, but also in terms of military affairs. Now, Xingchen Leader only has only 6,000 combat power in total, and Mingque Island is his own on the sea. Even if the sand thieves mobilized from the desert, the full amount is only more than 10,000, which is too few for Xingchen Leader’s stalls now.
In the past, there was not enough population and there was no way to recruit soldiers from the empire. But now that Xingchen has pacified overseas forces, personnel will be no problem. We can completely pull up an army from overseas.
Then she said her thoughts, Jiang Xingchen immediately nodded: "Then you will be very hard for this matter. Just ask Grandpa Fu for the money you need. We are very rich now!"
Tang Chuxue chuckled: "I won't worry about money. Even if the family is gone, you can just make some energy wine and sell it at a sky-high price!"
Jiang Xingchen nodded and whispered: "The first thing is to find the remains of the Great Shang Dynasty."
Returning to the lord's mansion, Tang Chuxue immediately started to expand the army. Jiang Xingchen continued to study the formation.
Time flies, and it is the end of August. After the summer carnival, it also represents the end of the summer tourism peak and the number of tourists has dropped rapidly.
However, it has become even busier for the staff of Xingchen Link. Since the summer carnival, a large number of singing and dancing troupes and local performance venues have come to Xingchen Link to inquire about purchasing microphones and speakers.
At this time, the autumn harvest happened to be the first time. A large number of crops were ripe and needed to be harvested, dried and stored.
At the same time, the manganese ore in the grassland began to be excavated, and the miasma of the iridium osmium mine in the southern wilderness was also cleaned up, and a large number of people were required to prepare for mining.
On Xianning, the synthesis of ammonia experiment was successful. It is necessary to establish a synthetic ammonia factory along the coast immediately to facilitate alkali production.
Many things come together, and the city hall is like a clockwork full of strings. Mei'er can't go home until late at night every night, and she goes to work again just as dawn. Tang Chuxue is the same. Her workload is a little bit too much. Jiang Xingchen is working hard to study the formation without distraction. The two children have to be handed over to Ling'er and the kitten girl.
At this time, news came from Dali that ten ports had been built and ships could be opened. For this news, Qin Manwu came to Xingchenling again. The World Commerce Company had the right to enter overseas. She had been waiting for the port to be built for a long time.
In this case, Jiang Xingchen stopped researching. On the one hand, he arranged freight ships for the world's trading company, and on the other hand, he equipped them with some special products of Xingchen Gate.
After arranging the matter of the World Commerce Company, Jiang Xingchen re-entered the formation research. But within two days, another important news came, and the large railway connecting the ice field was finally completed.
Jiang Xingchen was ecstatic when he received this news, which means that energy issues will no longer become a restriction in the future. Not only will the demand for Xingchen Grade be guaranteed, but it can also be transported directly from the ice field to the curse land.
Jiang Xingchen then ordered the trial of opening the traffic and wrote a letter to the Cursed Land, so that the young master of the Mu family could speed up the construction of the steel ship.
A day later, a train with dozens of storage tanks in the train station led by Xingchen slowly started. Jiang Xingchen and the old man were on this truck leading to the ice field. He wanted to see with his own eyes the scenery along the big railway.
In mid-September, the first train loaded with combustible ice arrived at the curse land. Han Xiaowu and Young Master Mu came to the train station to greet Jiang Xingchen in person. Both of them were excited and the fuel problem was finally solved.
Jiang Xingchen got off the train, and without saying a word, he pulled the young master of the Mu family and went to the shipyard. The fuel storage on the ship also required a cold storage, so he had to do this job.
He stayed in the Curse Land for nearly half a month. During this half month, he not only used a temperature-controlled pressure array to build a cold storage in the bottom cabin of the steel ship, but also worked for several days in the synthetic ammonia factory under construction along the coast. He had to do whatever the problem involved in the construction of the formation.
