Tech overlord

Chapter 36-Pike Team

These words are not without a target. Judging from past experience, Van Paul should be a plastic talent, plus, he is a cronies of the city lord.

The confidant of the city lord is his confidant. Li Ruoyu is never stingy with his own people, and will take the lead in giving them any benefits.

The stronger they are, the more stable they can sleep. If they can't protect themselves, then they can't play, wipe their necks and wash them to sleep.

Thinking about it, facing Ouyang Xin, he said, "How far has the person in your hands developed?"

"The number of people who are absolutely obedient to us and have no two minds has reached 200. After the last Dark Moon City incident, we have stopped all high-profile publicity work in our hands, and went underground, using various The means began to dig people." At this point, Ouyang Xin laughed.

Small coins.

When is this guy okay? Seeing the cunningness shown by Ouyang Xin, Li Ruoyu couldn't help but feel a headache, and said: "Anyway, the two hundred people are not Chinese cabbage in the field. If you miss one, I will Distressed."

Ouyang Xin felt that he was very lucky. He didn't believe in gods, but now he suddenly believed that he might really be the one who was blessed by heaven.

Otherwise, why can I walk to Li Ruoyu's side?

I thought that I was a slave in the mining area at the beginning, but now I have hundreds of people in my hands, and all of this is thanks to Li Ruoyu's gift. He said in his heart, "Please don't worry, Li Gongzi."

"Well, by the way, ask the craftsmen to speed up the production progress of the firecrackers, and the steam engine. Isn't there a canal outside of Darkmoon City? Five days later, I will get the steamboat out. I will give you the drawings. What's wrong? Know the place, ask me at any time, don’t be afraid of trouble, I’m not too troublesome."

"that……"

Ouyang Xin rubbed his hands, brewing words in his heart, and then cautiously said: "The construction period can be accelerated, but now the money is not enough."

"So fast?"

Li Ruoyu raised his eyebrows and closed his eyes, combing through recent expenses.

Counting the expenses of training two hundred assistants, and training an army of five hundred, and the processing and craftsmen, there is indeed not much money left.

Expenses are indeed spent very quickly, just like running water. It is not enough if the landlord’s family has surplus food if the landlord’s family does not get in. It seems that you have to find a way to win the chamber of commerce to make money for yourself.

At the present time, a hundred wastes are waiting to be developed. Although it is more urgent to develop military industry first, but occasionally develop some small things, it is estimated that they will sell well.

Such as soap, perfume, diamonds.

Thinking of soap box perfume, Li Ruoyu immediately came to his spirits. He knew very well that there is no soap in the current world. Those ladies bathing are all medicine bags. How can that thing be compared with soap and perfume? If you develop it and enter the market, I am afraid that within a few days, you can quickly accumulate a financial sum.

However, right now, he still had to get a sum of money to stabilize the mining area, so he couldn't help but hit Liu Changfeng with his idea, and he had to extort a sum quickly while this guy was still acting as the city lord.

Liu Changfeng was frowned upon by him and wanted to slip away.

"Where to go, City Lord Liu."

Li Ruoyu looked at him funny, and said, "It's not about scraping your skin."

"You better shave my skin."

"Come on, you, don't talk nonsense, I want money, are you not acting as the lord now? Well, appropriation, I want you to give me five million taels of silver."

Liu Changfeng was still drinking tea. Hearing Li Ruoyu's big mouth, he only felt that the tea in his mouth suddenly stopped fragrant.

"This money is difficult."

"You are the city lord, so what is it difficult?"

Liu Changfeng looked at Li Ruoyu aggrievedly, and said: "I only take over government affairs, and the local financial affairs are currently in the hands of Mr. Fang."

"Why is it him again?"

"Before Mr. Zheng left, his finances were managed by him. Now Mr. Zheng is not there. The financial aspects of Dark Moon City will naturally fall on Mr. Fang. You don't know, just these two tons of gunpowder are not Mr. Fang. Is it a manuscript issued in person?"

Li Ruoyu asked for a moment and said, "Well, Jia Minger will give this letter to Lao Fang. He will naturally give you an order when he sees the letter."

Li Ruoyu took out a letter wrapped in oil paper and handed it to Liu Changfeng, saying: "This money is not spent on me, but on the Long Spear Team."

"The Pike Team?"

Ouyang Xin and Liu Changfeng were taken aback at the same time and asked, "What is the Long Spear Team?"

With a mysterious smile on his face, Li Ruoyu said, "I will find out in ten days. In short, I won't let you down."

After the natural disasters, the armies of the four empires have completely regressed to the age of cold weapons, and those hot weapons that were once brilliant and terrifying have all become dust.

Because the Sun Star Lord feared that the civilization of the Spirit Star would threaten his ruling foundation, he also listed these as taboos and was self-regulated by humans.

Therefore, Li Ruoyu wanted to get the long spear team out in advance, and once it was made, the world would completely change with the popularity of long spears.

Although the era of hot weapons is over long ago, what should come will come back sooner or later!

"By the way, after getting the money, two million will be given to the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and the remaining three million will be given to A Xin for his distribution."

The note given to the president of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday is actually a purchase list, which includes a large amount of raw materials for synthetic gunpowder such as sulfur and saltpeter. These things are contraband in themselves and are in the hands of the government. The price is expensive.

Although it is monopolized by the government, the big families of the power class still have a lot of reserves. Not to mention the spears and artillery, just the power of gunpowder is terrible.

And the money is given to the Chamber of Commerce's account. In a short time, it can stop their complaints. When the craftsmanship of this workshop reaches the standard level, if it is matched with gunpowder, then, even if you don't give the money, what about grabbing it?

The confrontation between hot and cold weapons, history has proven that the number of people who win a war can often only determine a few factors.

And most of the possibilities are related to morale, art of war, and usual training, but this is not the focus, the focus is still on equipment.

A well-equipped soldier can tell at a glance who wins and who is full of miscellaneous soldiers.

Not to mention, a fully equipped long spear team. With the sound of the gunfire, the head fell to the ground and the blood splashed five steps. Then, after the gunshots rang into one piece?

Li Ruoyu's eyes gradually became excited. The city lord said that there was an army stationed five hundred kilometers away from Darkmoon City. Then, it came just right. The Pike Team needs actual combat experience. This army will undoubtedly become the best training partner.
