The study room of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The Prime Minister was leaning on the chair, holding a book in his hand, but his expression was a little dazed.
There was a soft "click" sound in the room, and he turned his eyes. In the light and shadow of the candlelight on the ground, a figure appeared.
"Sir," the man saluted respectfully, "according to your instructions, I am ready."
The Prime Minister closed the book with a serious look on his face, rubbed his fingertips, and said nothing.
"My lord is upset, do you want to continue?" the man asked tentatively.
"No," the Prime Minister shook his head, "This matter was agreed to by the Mo Alliance, and the world in ten directions has no objections, so you can just go ahead and do it.
But I suddenly felt that it would be a pity to kill His Majesty if we went in the wrong direction. "
"Don't worry," the man assured, "This official is very measured in his actions."
"That's another question," the Prime Minister sighed. He was stunned for a while, "Tell me, what should we do if His Majesty really enters the Immortal Way and gains cultivation?"
The man smiled softly: "Don't worry, sir. Once this situation unfolds, it will be a dragnet. Even if your majesty enters the immortal world, your subordinates will have been prepared for it."
The prime minister thought like a chicken and a duck, and finally shook his head: "Since you are sure, then fully implement it according to the plan.
I will let the Mexican Alliance pay attention to the person who replaces His Majesty. "
The man bowed and said, "My lord and I have finally confirmed that we are in agreement, so let's go ahead and do it."
After speaking, he disappeared from the spot.
The Prime Minister waited for him to leave, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.
As the first person under Emperor Daqian, the level he has come into contact with is not comparable to that of ordinary cultivators.
The way of heaven seems to have changed, and it seems that someone deliberately confuses and blocks the secret of heaven.
As an emperor, Xu Mochen might have entered the immortal world at such a critical moment.
This is something that has never been allowed to happen since ancient times.
So the question is, is Xu Mochen's mutation allowed by heaven? Or has Heaven not noticed it yet?
If it is the latter, the Prime Minister thinks that everything they are doing now is completely fine.
But if it's the former...then they are the pathfinding stones now.
The immortal cultivators in the Yunshang Realm used them to test and observe Xu Mochen.
A chess piece in someone else's hand, the prime minister thought of this, with a hint of curvature at the corner of his mouth.
It has always been him who makes the plans and others take part in the game. When did he become a pawn in the hands of others?
It's time to connect with your soul in the upper world of the cloud.
In the royal study room of the palace, Xu Mochen and everyone were discussing going to Lanzhou.
"Speaking of Lanzhou, I went there after I ascended the throne and before the Unification War," Xu Mochen recalled his youth. "Lanzhou is located in the north of the capital, and beyond it is Qizhou, which can be regarded as the border.
Most of Lanzhou's territory is filled with high mountains and glaciers, but there is a plain with abundant aquatic plants. "
After Xu Mochen succeeded to the throne and became the emperor, he was assisted by the Queen Mother for several years. It was not until he was sixteen that he actually took charge.
At that time, the existence of the Immortal Cultivator was not known, and his goal did revolve around the unification war.
Lanzhou is not big, but it is a good natural pasture.
The terrain is high and the weather is cold. The horses that come out are relatively large, strong and have good endurance.
Therefore, he once planned a horse breeding farm in Lanzhou, which provided Daqian with abundant horse resources.
In this era, cavalry is equivalent to tanks and mecha troops.
No matter how much the cultivators behind the scenes intervened, the cavalry team formed by Xu Mochen played a big role in many battles.
This was also the first pot of gold that Daqian got.
Subsequently, the map continued to expand, and Lanzhou's military status gradually decreased.
"After the unification of the world," Zhao Lingbo read the detailed records, "the horses that Lanzhou pays tribute to every year are of the best quality, and they are also the best in embroidery at present.
Configuration that enables elite use. "
Shen Zhining yawned: "In a place like this, other industries should be relatively backward."
Xu Mochen nodded: "My concubine is right. Mortals have limited abilities. Even if they slowly develop in the future, they will not be able to build mountains from the sea, otherwise everyone will become an immortal cultivator."
Everyone laughed when he said it.
"But based on experience," Shen Zhining compared, "a place like this may contain oil and natural gas."
No one present except Xu Mochen understood oil and natural gas.
"My beloved, you know me," Xu Mochen smiled, worthy of being a fellow countryman, "Maybe there are some rare resources, which are what we want."
In other words, Xu Mochen plans to build a military industrial park in Lanzhou.
The entire Lanzhou is mostly surrounded by mountains, and there are basically no entrances and exits to the foreign country, which can well resist the invasion of foreign countries.
As for the immortal cultivators, they can ignore the geographical environment, but Xu Mochen envisioned that other lines of defense were also set up to prevent the immortal cultivators from entering and exiting easily.
Finally, taking a step back, if a war breaks out, the barren mountains and wild mountains will not affect the human race.
Of course, these ideas cannot be expressed at the moment.
The direction has been determined, and then the next step is to choose the candidate to go to Lanzhou.
We must go to the harem. After all, Shen Zhining and Gu Jinge are both masters of immortal cultivation. They are also their own concubines, and they are their own people in a fight.
There are also the newly recruited maids in the harem. Most of these people are immortal cultivators brought back from Danzhou in the south. Some of them are children of Qiongqing Palace, and they are now under the management of Gu Jinge.
For them, if they meet a master, they will risk their lives, but building hydropower stations is very useful.
That's right, Xu Mochen regarded them as equipment such as cranes, cranes, large trucks, etc.
Otherwise, why would I have a harem?
Xu Mochen said that everything he did was planned, and he worked hard for the future rise and fall of the Daqian human race.
Then there are the craftsmen allocated by the Ministry of Industry, and some participating censors, etc. These are all mortals.
Finally, there are people like Duan Bailian from the institute, including the generator equipment of the hydropower station and so on.
"If we take all actions, the number of personnel will be huge," Xu Mochen still had a preliminary idea, "and if mortals and immortal cultivators are mixed together, problems will easily arise."
It would be bad if something happens to the maids in his harem, all of whom are as beautiful as immortals and have outstanding grace.
"I have decided to start the operation gradually in several groups," Xu Mochen signaled, and Tang Derun divided the plan. "In the first group, I will also enter Lanzhou with Concubine Xian, Concubine De, and the Ministry of Industry.
The main thing is to confirm the actual location of the hydropower station. "
Everyone looked at the information.
After the location was determined, the second group was to let the harem cultivators under their command move in.
Finally, arrange the craftsmen and transport equipment to the designated location.
The whole process may take more time, but it can ensure stability.
"In fact, after the site for the construction of the hydropower station has been explored, we still need to determine the road transportation, etc.," Xu Mochen paid attention to the time, "It is already autumn, and in a few days, there will be heavy snow in Lanzhou.
Next spring, if the snow melts, the roads will be muddy, making it very inconvenient to travel. "
"Your Majesty," Tang Derun gave a suggestion, "Last year, we had an experienced team for repairs on the road from Beijing to Ningzhou. Wei Chen suggested calling them in. The road work can be started now."
"My concubine's people have little impact on the wind and snow," Gu Jinge also suggested, "So as long as your majesty decides on the location, my concubine will immediately take the people to the location first, and let them do some basic projects.
In this case, when later-stage craftsmen and mortals from the institute arrive, they won’t be too surprised to see it. "
This makes sense. If there are more mortals, it will be difficult for those cultivators to perform.
So what Gu Jinge means is that for a large-scale project, let Xiuxian do it first
or do it.
Zhao Lingbo cooperated with the idea: "I understand the concerns of Your Majesty and all the empresses, and proper arrangements will be made here. In the early stage, I will personally participate and record every detail of the construction of the hydropower station."
This is a very important link. At present, the hydropower station involves cultivators, which is a helpless move and is also the first experimental field.
But Xu Mochen’s ultimate goal is for the human race to build it themselves in the future.
Then you need to record every step in detail and summarize the experience.
Among the human race, the only one who has good looks, intelligence, and is willing to die for Xu Mochen is Princess Zhao Lingbo.
Xu Mochen immediately agreed: "The princess will be with us in the early stage, so she must not leave my side easily."
In Lanzhou, there must be some local immortal cultivators.
Maybe I'll take action.
