In the hall of Shenmu City, Ali, who had already arrived and checked the specific affairs of the gold mine, was excitedly explaining to Lin Fenghan.
"Good nephew! We are developed. This mine is very rich. There are gold mines, silver mines, iron mines, copper mines, tin mines, etc. Although the storage of gold and silver is not too much, it is not too little. With our More than 4,000 people work every month, and they can extract at least ten kilograms of gold and more than seventy kilograms of silver in a month. Each kilogram of gold and silver can produce about 95 to 100 coins. And the iron ore produced is also very good. We can Set up an arsenal here to make weapons and shields."
"Yeah!" Lin Fenghan nodded happily: "Not bad!"
Ali continued to speak with excitement: "We are manufacturing giant bronze cannons on both sides. According to the output of about 2 to 4 guns per month in both places, by the time spring comes next year, we will have at least 20 giant cannons."
"Well!" Lin Fenghan said with a serious face: "This matter must be dealt with before many other things, and the production of mixed gunpowder must be increased."
"Haha! My nephew has good news for you!" Ali patted his chest excitedly and said, "I have found the right ratio and developed a gunpowder mixture that can be mass-produced, and the new flame burns faster than before. Several times, we will no longer have to worry about gunpowder reserves in the future.¡±
"Really?" Lin Fenghan excitedly held Ali's hand and said, "Uncle, thank you very much."
"With enough gunpowder and cannons, we will no longer be afraid of any naval battles. Even if the land battle fails, we can hide in the islands and be in an invincible position."
Lin Fenghan rowed excitedly and said: "As long as our navy maintains strong firepower and huge advantages, it can sweep all the naval forces in Dambreth and the surrounding kingdoms. With the assistance of the navy, our army will be able to Better and more effective.¡±
"Um!"
"Um!"
"Um!"
"That makes sense!" Ali nodded while stroking his chin.
"Our current coins add up to more than 77 million silver coins. With the continuous production of money every month, we will not worry about money."
Lin Fenghan looked out the window and thought, "The biggest danger we face now is Duke Brant's all-out counterattack next year. If we want to preserve our strength under this counterattack, we must have high quality and strong combat effectiveness." army."
"What I have to do now is to change the Army and build a new Army."
Lin Fenghan looked at Ali, pointed at the map and said: "Our Kingdom of Dambres is very warm all year round and is in the temperate tropics. On the land in the southern continent of the Kingdom, rice crops are harvested three times a year and wheat is harvested twice a year. Corn is harvested three times every two years. The land in the southern continent is fertile, the products are abundant, and the food is sufficient. However, with the impact of the war for more than half a year, agriculture cannot operate normally at all. Many lands have become overgrown with weeds due to lack of labor and people to take care of them. Our current government All we have to do is guide Senwei farmers towards agriculture so that they can farm with peace of mind.¡±
"I have carefully calculated that the food stored in various cities in various places is enough to feed all the people in our territory for five months. Although this short half year is enough to harvest some new food, we must not relax the impact of the war on agriculture. Destructive power, so my next step is to send merchant ships and fleets to Dambreth Kingdom and other countries to purchase food and supplies to ensure the safety of our lives."
"Um!"
Ali nodded solemnly and said: "Food must be in our own hands. This is something that is related to our lives. We must not take it lightly."
After a pause, Ali seriously suggested: "Regarding the cultivation of food, the optimization of land fertility, the growth cycle of plants, how to use ditches, reservoirs, and fertilizers, I do have information about an agricultural report. I suggest that about farming. The government should supervise these things, and at the same time give guidance to the people."
"Okay!" Lin Fenghan clapped his hands happily and said, "Uncle Ali, please write down your experience in farming. I will immediately order it to be implemented by the people in each village and town."
"Yes!" Ali nodded seriously and continued: "Also when I was in Waterdeep City, I felt that after the army left, Waterdeep City's military strength was reduced and its defense was insufficient. There were many detailed works of other forces appearing in it. Many remnants of the nobles are causing trouble there."
"Deepwater City has a natural large-scale deep-water sheltered port such as Deepwater Port, which is a natural naval fleet station. This place connects the Senvi region and the Elante Islands. It is the connection point between our home territory and the Senvi region. It is located in the north and is in ourWe must not underestimate the role of the first fortress city in resisting Brandt's army. I suggest that more troops be stationed nearby and a strict supervision system be established to prevent spies from other forces from spreading rumors and shaking people's hearts. "
"kindness!"
"must!"
Lin Fenghan nodded cautiously.
"ah!"
Ali rubbed his eyes, put down the information in his hand, stretched his waist, and said with a tired smile: "Good nephew! I have talked to you so much without knowing it, and it's almost noon. Let's go eat!"
"The Emina you left behind in Hailin Town and your beautiful little nurse Bemina have already arrived at the castle. You have to comfort them!"
¡°(¡Ño¡Ñ)¡¡±
"Ha ha!"
Ali patted Lin Fenghan on the shoulder and said, "Don't keep thinking about work. It's past eleven now. Let's go sit in the garden for a while and chat to refresh ourselves."
"Um!"
Lin Fenghan nodded in agreement. As soon as the two of them walked into the back garden from the living room, a burst of laughter like silver bells reached Lin Fenghan's ears.
"Come!"
¡°Come and catch me quickly!¡±
¡°Look what I¡¯m holding in my hand.¡±
"My hairpin is disgusting!"
¡¡
Emina blushed and chased Iona angrily.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
While running, Iona, who was looking back at Emina, suddenly stepped on a stone, became unstable and fell forward.
Lin Fenghan quickly moved forward and hugged Iona's figure who was about to fall.
"Wow!"
"It's brother Yiliuyun!"
"Heroes save beauties!"
"Give me back my hairpin."
"Emina, Bemina looked at Lin Fenghan in surprise and said.
"hehe!"
Lin Fenghan gently touched Iona's face and said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for a few days. Everyone has bought new clothes and worn new jewelry. Congratulations."
"Fool!"
Iona stood up from Lin Fenghan's arms, her face turned red and she nodded Lin Fenghan's head and said: "The Chinese New Year will be here in three or four weeks. Of course we have to buy good food, good drinks, and beautiful clothes. .¡±
¡°It¡¯s almost the Chinese New Year.¡± Lin Fenghan muttered as he looked up at the sky.
"Yes!" Emina touched the hairpin made of platinum and emerald and said sweetly: "My family was not rich before and could not afford many things. In the past few months with you, the Elantra government and the army have given I have a lot of money, so I can afford such a beautiful hairpin."
"Yes!" Iona looked sympathetically at Bemina, who was hiding behind Emina, lowering her head sadly and said: "There are many children from civilian families who will not be truly happy when they arrive in time for the New Year. Although in the Senvi Mountains In this area that is rich in products, there are many children from ordinary families who can only eat some white bread and buy some red rope cloth during the New Year."
Lin Fenghan's body trembled, and he looked sympathetically at the timid, scared, shy, envious, and bitter Bemina behind Emina. He took out ten gold coins from his pocket with concern, handed them over, and said softly: " Bemina, come here, I¡¯ll give you this as lucky money.¡±
"I!"
"I do not want¡¡!"
Bemina said with shame and inferiority, lowering her head and touching the hem of her clothes.
Lin Fenghan held Beimina's little hand distressedly and said seriously: "Beimina, how about this money? I have an arrow wound that hasn't been cured yet, and I still need your help. This money can be regarded as an advance payment." Your winnings. Use it to buy some new clothes, new shoes, new toys."
Bemina shook her head movedly and looked at Lin Fenghan and whispered: "Baron Baron I don't"
Lin Fenghan held Beimina's little hand tightly, looked into Beimina's eyes seriously and said: "Not only do you have this money, they also have it, the people of Elantes also have it, the people of Deepwater City also have it, the people of Senwei also have it, all the Elantes have it." All the people under the government have it.¡±
¡°I have now made a decision to give 10 silver coins to every adult in the territory, 5 silver coins to minors, and 30 kilograms of corn or rice to each person during the Chinese New Year.¡±
"ah!"
Ali asked with a dull expression: "Nephew, are you crazy? How could you make such a decision? You must know that the most lacking thing in our territory right now is food."
"I'm not crazy." Lin Fenghan hugged his chest and gasped: "I just want all the people to have a good year, be safe and happy."Welcome next year with all your heart, just do as I say! "
"Why!"
