…
Liu Tong also felt a little helpless about this. The world is so deceiving.
When you point out a certain technology, its needs may be beyond ordinary people's expectations.
In the past, when steel production was low, they could get by.
When steel production increases, many industries that did not use steel before gradually increase their demand for steel.
Among them, agriculture is the first to be affected, and the consumption of normal daily necessities, pots and pans, etc. has gradually increased.
If we want to increase the production of steel enough to meet the needs of the entire Han Dynasty and achieve a situation where supply exceeds demand, I am afraid it will not be something that can be accomplished in a few decades.
"Forget it, let's build the third one!" Liu Tong thought for a moment, and Gan Ning and others, who were probably still wandering on the ocean, had a look of pity on their faces.
After deciding to build a large warship, Gan Ning and others directly shouldered a lot of debt, and no one knew how many years they would be able to pay it off.
The manufacturing cycle of large warships is far away, at least in the short term, and there is no hope. We can only hope that Lu Jun can be more powerful and spend less time in this advancement process.
And this gap in the middle can be supplemented and assisted by Ninghai-class steel battleships.
As for the name of the battleship, let the admiral decide on her own, so she doesn't need to worry about it.
One Ninghai and one Pinghai, the re-created sister warships are enough to intimidate the young people even if they lie down in Donglai Port.
Seeing that Liu Tong had made up his mind, Lu Yu didn't say anything more. Instead, he nodded seriously, wrote down the matter, and then just handed it over to Lu Yi.
After all, in this regard, she is not the one who chooses to spend money.
While the two were talking, they were wearing a coat. Si Niang, who jumped in from the window with a white fox in her arms, came into view of the two of them.
Especially Lu Yu, looking at the white fox that jumped from the window and landed on the ground, lying on his chest, and the white fox rising and falling with the shock caused by the landing, couldn't help but fall into silence.
Every time she saw this situation, she felt struck. Is this really something humans can do?
"Tongtong, I found the New Year's gift!" Si Niang said with a smile on her face, ignoring Lu Yu's surprised gaze, directly handed the white fox out from her chest, and said with excitement.
"New Year's gift?" Liu Tong scratched his head strangely and looked at Si Niang in confusion, feeling confused for a moment.
To be honest, under normal circumstances, many people give her gifts during the Chinese New Year, but at this time, there is still some time before the Chinese New Year, how can you think of giving him a New Year gift?
"That's right, didn't Tongtong give you a gift during the sad New Year?" Si Niang stretched out her hands and once again raised the white fox in her hands high, and said seriously, "Chen Zichuan's luck is incarnated as a nine-tailed white fox. In this case, as a New Year’s gift, just give him a cute white fox!”
After hearing this, Liu Tong looked at the white fox carefully and nodded seriously.
It wouldn't be a problem if I could use such a fox as a New Year gift.
After all, giving gifts is more about affection than gift.
The New Year gift still represents the auspicious white fox, which is quite good if you can catch it, let alone give it to others.
Looking at the cute appearance of the white fox, Liu Tong directly rubbed it with his hands and found that the unexpected warmth matched the layer of fur on the white fox's body!
"Si Niang, where did you catch the fox?" Liu Tong thought about the living range and activity space of these white foxes, and said thoughtfully.
This thing should be hard to come across south of Jizhou.
The conventional living areas are all in the area north of Youzhou, which is quite far away from here.
"Is this one? It's a small animal brought back to me by Nanhua who went to explore the black land area north of Youzhou." Si Niang told the reason why she got this fox. , without any concealment.
"Exploring the area of black soil?" Liu Tong felt as if he hadn't received information for a long time. Are the immortals starting to do this?
Where the black soil is, isn't that where the Wuhuan people live among the grassland barbarians?
Although Nan Hua is quite powerful and can be called the number one immortal, the risk factor for heading to that place so rashly is probably very high.
"I don't know. I heard that the snow in the north is particularly heavy this year. It seems that there are factors of human intervention. Basically, the barbarian tribes in the grassland stay quietly in their own tribes, which is just suitable for measurement and observation. So Taoist Master Nan Hua went..." Si Niang picked up the snacks on the table, replenished her own strength, and told the process and reasons.
"Is there such a heavy snowfall with such a large impact?" Liu Tong couldn't help but think of the plan Chen Xi said, and in the end he could only nod.
It is really terrifying to be able to radiate from the cold center north of Bingzhou to the north of Youzhou.
Chen Xi's own spiritual talent and the amount of energy he brings are almost unlimited.
Although due to his own mental strength, the upper limit of his output is limited.
But the total amount is almost unlimited, so when outputting, naturally you don’t care about time.
As long as some nodes are relaxed and the weather outside the Great Wall is induced to change to a certain extent, the final effect will be surprising.
There is no large amount of consumption of materials, and there is no scientific proportioning. It only relies on free mental energy, under Chen Xi's control.
This completed such a change in the celestial phenomena. For the Hu people outside the Great Wall, it was a horrific disaster that was closer to a meteorological disaster.
That kind of completely different weather change seems so completely abnormal in the eyes of some people who record the weather.
But not only Nanhua secured this opportunity, this was also a very rare opportunity for Huyanchu, the Xiongnu Chanyu.
Even if the road was blocked and the marching speed slowed down due to heavy snow, it could not change Hu Yanchu's excited attitude.
The Huns' army can also rely on his spiritual talent to bloom a little light and illuminate the way forward.
But for the vast majority of the Hu tribes, they simply cannot achieve this ability.
"The heavy snow has blocked the road, which means that the vast majority of the grassland barbarian tribes will stay where they are instead of running away!"
Hu Yanchu stretched out his hand, and not long after, an eagle landed on his shoulder and passed back the information he needed.
Looking at the content passed back by the eagle, Hu Yanchu showed a cruel smile.
Opponents who have no way to escape will eventually become their slaves! (End of chapter)
