Chapter 304 Arms Proliferation

"Welcome, maybe in a few years, you Dunland will have a professional competition."

Annick is extremely optimistic about the promotion of football, and the sport that the general public likes is the first sport.

"Football is really so interesting? Unfortunately, our family only allows me to practice riding."

Elizabeth was very depressed. She had three horses under her name, birthday gifts when she was a child, gifts from Uncle Ryan, and a meeting gift from her distant cousin last month.

"The troubles of the nobles, maybe you can go and see them next time you have time."

Annick made a suggestion, and Elizabeth was moved, but if he was so willful, the servants and guards who followed him would be in trouble.

"Are you a chance?"

"Then let me share my recent experience. I verified the suppression of the sailing warship by the Iron Craft. When we encountered a robbery pirate ship, we wiped them out at the cost of zero death and three injuries."

Drake said first in a proud tone, then observed the reactions of the two people on the other side.

"No, are you fighting long-distance artillery? You still have three injured? Those bronze artillery cannons can't penetrate your armor."

Annick asked curiously.

"The three unlucky children are recruits. When fighting at close range, they were responsible for loading artillery. They were frightened by the explosion. They shook their hands and the shells hit their toes."

"This is still really humorous."

Annick was a little amused and crying about this injury, so he could only give this evaluation.

"By the way, the Kingdom of Liv signed a contract with us to purchase two warships of 2.4 million pounds. Could it be the dreadnought you designed?"

Drake finally revealed his true thoughts and asked on the pretext.

"I don't know, my design was published in a magazine. If it has any impact, only the Admiralty or the royal family knows it, and the details of the arms sales have not been published."

Annik immediately estimated that two dreadnoughts would be sold, otherwise, according to the cost of the Kingdom's latest cruiser, 240 pounds would be enough to buy ten ships. Even if it was sold to foreign countries, it would be fine to increase the price at least seven or eight ships.

If you buy two warships at a cruiser detachment, you must have bought the dreadnought, but you really don’t know the details. Perhaps it is not impossible for the Kingdom’s Admiralty to give the little prince a 70% rebate and then sell only two cruisers.

"Ahem, I know, according to a friend of mine who attended the royal dinner, Prince Ryan took a while to sell two unprecedentedly powerful warships to the Crown Prince, equipped with fortress caliber artillery, just to deal with the navy of the rebels and shell their cities."

Elizabeth was a little guilty. After all, she rarely lie, and her friend was herself.

"Did the kingdom keep up? This dreadnought will spread very quickly."

Drake was more concerned about this. The firepower of the fortress cannons is stronger than that of most saints. Ten cannons fired volleys, and landing on the edge of his ship would be a disaster.

"The Kingdom did not say to keep up. My guess about them was mostly to train warships ordered by Liff, accumulate production experience and modify designs. It is estimated that after the two Liff Kingdoms were launched, the country's dreadnoughts would start construction."

Annick thought about it from the perspective of a female businessman and then gave a reply.

"Then the fastest time is probably one year later? Other countries are acting."

Drake asked, he had to prepare in advance for the transformation.

"When Luke saw that we had a dreadnought, he would definitely keep up, as well as countries along the coasts such as Frantania, the Lowlands, and Crieli, with complete will within them. In five years, I guess all countries in the Western Continent will have such warships."

I can't predict whether a naval competition will break out. This plane does not pay enough attention to the navy. Perhaps it is because it is busy starting a film and colonizing the Western Continent. The movement is slower than on the earth, and at the same time, the fear of the Eastern Continent has made the countries in the Western Continent have lowered their ideas about maintaining a large navy.

Five years? More optimistic than I imagine, maybe after I become a saint, I will find a way out for these nearly a thousand people. Make more money, and take the opportunity to eliminate those small and bad guys and at least accumulate a farm for my brothers.

Money from the garden.

After having an idea, Drake felt more pressure on his shoulders. Chinese website

"I have successfully run for the district MP. I believe that the Labor Party will not stop in one district, and the number of party members will be expanded to a hundred."

Jones said that he had achieved results, and then thought of Annick sitting next to him.

"Of course, Mr. Detective has helped a lot later. By the way, do you want to talk about the Environmental Protection Act?"

What did you say? I made a big fuss in the parliament?

Annick shook his head and said.

"After paying a small price, the world's first environmental bill was passed. I believe this will profoundly change the world."

The changes in the world line also proved their judgment, with a 6% increase, and now the world has changed by 36%, which is more than one-third compared to the predetermined world.

"Is it environmentally friendly? I have read the reports. Do those pesticide and fertilizer plants really produce so many toxic substances? Will they be shut down?"

Elizabeth felt sad for the victims in the newspapers and asked.

"No, on the contrary, fertilizers and pesticides will expand production. Compared with the poor who have increased their production, poisoning is only a few. Before there are no fertilizers and pesticides, grain production is too low. Even in a bumper harvest year, some people still cannot eat black bread. We must make good use of the benefits brought by science and technology to reduce their harm."

Annick spoke his thoughts very utilitarily. In his opinion, technology and firearms are just like that, depending on how the people who use them are used.

"I understand, maybe the whole kingdom is going to promote your approach."

Annick shook his head and he was not so optimistic.

"In the south of the kingdom, it is a settlement of various industries, and it is even more difficult to make them temporarily sacrifice their interests. It is difficult to make any changes before large-scale victim incidents."

Human beings always get beaten by history to know the pain, and then they never learn any lessons. This is the same everywhere.

"They will only correct them after making mistakes. Are they really so stupid?"

Elizabeth suddenly felt that most capitalists were short-sighted guys, and maybe someone could replace them better.

"No, they just feel that the price is not on themselves. They enjoy the fresh air in the countryside and drink the best wine made from spring water. The pollution will not affect their lives. Even in Lumang, Queens is far away from other industrial areas, and most of the upper floors are not visible."

Or, exquisite egoism is more appropriate, after all, altruism has lost all its business long ago.

"I can see it, but I can't do anything."
