    It was already night when Qian Xiaoxing and his party arrived at Spark City. The various buildings in the city without city walls were clearly visible. Looking at the sparks in the residential houses in the city, it really fit the name of Spark City.  Upon learning that Qian Xiaoxing had returned, Si Yingying had already held a reception banquet in the banquet hall. Among Qian Xiaoxing's wives, Si Yingying was the most prestigious because she was the only one who dared to use the shadowless kick on Qian Xiaoxing. Everyone  If you have anything to do, discuss it with Si Yingying.  From a distance, Si Yingying saw Qian Xiaoxing leading everyone over. In addition to the familiar Shi Yeying and Ling Shan, there were two more women. Si Yingying was really angry and funny, and cursed: "This guy  He brought two girls back once he went out. Sisters, you can¡¯t let him go out again.¡± Everyone nodded in agreement. With Qian Xiaoxing¡¯s carefree character, he only brings back two girls at a time now, but in the future he will bring back ten girls at a time.  Yeah, that's really bad.  Everyone was very happy to meet again after a long separation. The scene was full of laughter and laughter. Qian Xiaoxing hugged Si Yingying and Yi Hongyue one by one and said, "Good wife, you miss me so much, come and kiss me." Qian Xiaoxing pouted and said  She wanted to have a kiss, but was pushed away by the two women. Si Yingying said, "With so many people watching you acting recklessly, have you found two more sisters for us?" Behind Qian Xiaoxing stood Li Ting and Lan Lin.  , the beauty of both women is excellent, so Si Yingying must think that Qian Xiaoxing abducted her. Ling Yi said hurriedly: "I don't know whether Qian Xiaoxing abducted Lan Lin, but Tingting is mine.  , I brought them back. " "Haha, it seems that the harvest has been reduced this time. I used to bring two at a time, but I only brought one back this time." Si Yingying said with a smile.  Qian Xiaoxing defended: "Yes, I was too busy this time and didn't have time to abduct. I will try harder next time." Qian Xiaoxing's other wives came up and said: "You still want to do it next time? We have discussed it.  I won¡¯t let you go out to mess with flowers anymore!¡± ¡°Haha, do you think it¡¯s so easy to find flowers and grass? It¡¯s my blessing to find you,¡± Qian Xiaoxing¡¯s praise made everyone happy.  With sweet hearts, everyone walked into the banquet hall and sat down.  After three rounds of drinking, Qian Xiaoxing also almost told the story of his trip to Shiguo to rescue Ling Yi and his son. Everyone was surprised to hear that Li Ting came from the same place as Qian Xiaoxing, and Qian Xiaoxing said  Everyone couldn't believe the explosive they arrived. There was such a powerful weapon in the world.  Qian Xiaoxing was very serious about what he said, and while everyone was listening with interest, Sima Yiqing came in and said, "Xian son-in-law, when I heard that you were back, I rushed over immediately." Qian Xiaoxing  He hurriedly asked the people around him to make room for Sima Yiqing, and sat down to drink together. However, Sima Yiqing put down his glass and said, "Xian son-in-law, I'm in a hurry. I'm not in the mood to drink." "What's the matter?" Qian Xiaoxing hurriedly said  asked.  Sima Yiqing said: "I just got the information. Lin Guo is already building a large number of warships, more than a hundred in number, and has trained 50,000 navy to prepare to attack from the sea. This move is very vicious. Our Si State has no coastal defense force at all.  "No." "I thought it was something. Don't worry, father-in-law. I already knew about this." Qian Xiaoxing then introduced Lan Lin to Sima Yiqing and said, "Prince Lin is quite discerning.  I want to recruit them to join the navy, but I have already pulled them over. They used to be pirates and are very skilled at sea navigation. We will also set up our own navy." Sima Yiqing then put down a glass of wine and said.  "It turns out that my good son-in-law has already made arrangements, so I can rest assured." Qian Xiaoxing thought for a moment and asked, "How much does it cost to build more than a hundred warships?" After hearing this, everyone didn't know how to answer, because they usually  Not understanding, Lan Lin saw that no one answered, and said: "It depends on how big it is. The large merchant ship we came back can carry more than 200 people, and the price is 50,000 taels a piece. It is estimated that Lin Guo's warship is bigger  If it is doubled, it will cost at least one hundred thousand taels. " "One hundred thousand taels, that's incredible." Qian Xiaoxing didn't expect the big ships to be so expensive, and said, "Lin Guo wants to build hundreds of them, so it will cost at least one thousand.  It¡¯s 10,000 taels of silver. It seems that Lin Guo is spending a lot of money this time.¡± Ling Shan said: ¡°We brought back 18 million taels of silver from Lin Guo. King Lin must be jealous and try his best to grab it.¡±  If Wang dares to come by sea, I will make him lose all his money!" Qian Xiaoxing said firmly: "Since King Lin has allocated 10 million taels, I can't be stingy than King Lin. I will allocate 15 million taels to the navy!  , I want to build the most powerful navy in China!" Si Yingying said excitedly after hearing this: "Okay, I will mobilize the people of Si State to fully support the construction of our navy." Lan Sha and Lan Lin were also extremely excited after hearing this.  Qian Xiaoxing was actually willing to spend fifteen million taelsSon, the future navy must be very powerful, and it is undoubtedly expected to be the leader of this navy.  Qian Xiaoxing was very concerned about the battle situation at the front and asked Sima Yiqing: "How is the battle situation on the front line during the two months I have been gone?" Sima Yiqing said sadly: "The pass of Linguo Lotus Valley has been completed, and Lin Jun has completed the pass.  It is indeed not easy to fight due to the natural dangers and the large water of Heye Lake. However, I have arranged for people to infiltrate the ropeway you used last time and burned some of Lin Jun's food and grass, but there is no progress in the rest. "  During the stalemate stage, Qian Xiaoxing felt a lot relieved when he heard the news. Although he could not attack, at least Lin Jun did not attack. He continued to ask: "How is the situation along the Lanjiang River?" Sima Yiqing replied: "Lin Jun  Of course I wanted to infiltrate across the river, but I asked Lu Shengzhong to place sentries along the Lanjiang River, and then deployed some cavalry in the center behind. Once Lin's army was found crossing the river, it would deal a heavy blow. After a few hits, Lin's army would never return.  I don¡¯t dare to cross the river anymore.¡± ¡°Well, it¡¯s no problem if I have my father-in-law to give me advice.¡± Qian Xiaoxing felt relieved after hearing the situation on the front line. As long as we can hold on now, with the powerful weapon of explosives, it will be easy to attack Lin State in the future.  .  The only threat now is Lin's navy. Qian Xiaoxing asked: "Sister Lin, do you know how long it will take to build a warship worth one hundred thousand taels?" "It will take at least three or four months, and  Lin Guo wants to build more than a hundred ships, and it is estimated that it will take a long time, ranging from half a year to several years at most," Lan Lin analyzed.  After hearing this, Sima Yiqing replied: "According to intelligence analysis, Lin Guo has started building ships for about a month. Based on this calculation, the warships will be able to go to sea in two to three months at the earliest." Qian Xiaoxing thought for a while and said  : "Two or three months, time may be tight, but it doesn't matter, one of our warships can withstand ten of theirs, and we are guaranteed to beat the Lin Kingdom's warships to pieces!" "Oh, what's so powerful about Xianxiu's warships?  ?" Sima Yiqing asked curiously.  "Because there are cannons on the warships! I will start developing the cannons tomorrow to show everyone the power of the cannons!" Qian Xiaoxing said excitedly.  Qian Xiaoxing's novel inventions in the past have surprised everyone. This time Qian Xiaoxing is going to develop a powerful cannon. Everyone is very curious. Sima Yiqing also wants to see what the cannon is like and said: "Okay.  , then I¡¯ll wait and see!¡±
