Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 398 The end of the snow season, the beginning of the new year

A light fragrance wafted in, and the nose was itchy from the hair.

Xia Fan couldn't help being stunned, but this process didn't last too long, Mo Yun quickly opened the distance again, and smiled generously, "Then I will be disrespectful."

So this is an enthusiastic scientific embrace?

Xia Fan suddenly felt like being treated as a brother by the other party.

He couldn't help laughing, indeed...on weekdays, once he talked about the mechanism, Mo Yun didn't care about other things. In addition to the experience of running away from the Mo family, it is estimated that she has already regarded herself as a man.

It is completely understandable to make such a move while excited.

On the contrary, the guards on the side and the staff of the Mechanical Engineering Bureau all showed shocked expressions.

"Is this fairy art related to light?" Mo Yun seemed to ignore the eyes of others and continued the previous topic.

"Theoretically, it is light, and it is a very special kind of light." Xia Fan nodded, "But the specific situation has to be determined by experiments."

If we talk about it in general, light is actually a kind of electromagnetic wave—light in the narrow sense refers to the frequency that the human eye can perceive, while those that cannot be perceived are from infrared rays to ultraviolet rays, and even ionizing radiation, which can be regarded as broad sense. Light.

If Jiuyouhuo is really some kind of strong radiation as he guessed, then it must have short wavelength, high frequency, and extremely high penetrating ability.

However, there are still many incomprehensible points in this fairy art talisman, and without a full understanding, it is impossible to perform the magic with the talisman alone. In other words, he needs to understand the idea of ​​the fairy technique, and supplement it with a primer like a copper wire pendant, so that the technique can take effect. In addition, high-energy rays are very risky, so he is not sure that it will work. Can't succeed.

Xia Fan thought, maybe he has to find another safe place to conduct related research.

...

After the New Year, the construction pace of Jinxia City not only did not slow down at all, but entered a new peak. In order to accommodate more people, the Bureau of Affairs is already working on demolishing the southern city wall—for a city of this era, building a tall and thick city wall is an unavoidable compromise for safety. The countryside spread out, forming a low-slung shanty town.

There are obviously many disadvantages to doing so.

If you can live in the city, no one wants to settle in the suburbs. This idea will cause residents to build houses spontaneously, crowding out the passing space, and making urban planning a piece of paper.

At the same time, the facilities outside the city will definitely not be connected to the city, and those who cannot squeeze in will not have the energy to build a unified drainage and sewage pipe network. As long as it takes a long time, the shantytowns outside the city must be full of sewage and stench, which is very easy to breed bacteria, and bad luck will lead to rampant plague.

Finally, there is a sense of belonging... No matter how hard the propaganda is, those who live in the shadow of the city wall and go out to the muddy road will find it difficult to treat themselves as residents of Jinxia City, let alone display their sense of ownership . This is definitely a hidden danger for Jinxia, ​​who is in a period of rapid growth and urgently needs to introduce people from outside.

Therefore, Xia Fan tried his best to overcome all opinions and decided to open a new open space in the south, and the construction specifications of the houses were exactly the same as those of the residential areas in the city. If this planned area can be fully utilized, the land area of ​​Jinxia City can be more than doubled. In addition to Gaoshan County in the south, there is a mountain forest area, and the possibility of being surrounded by the army is not high. Combining these two conditions, coupled with the consistent support of the princess, this plan was finally passed.

As a result, the residents of Jinxia City saw a new landscape - the tall and mighty Xuanwu mechanism beasts took on the duties of dismantling and transporting, and these mechanism creations were equipped with professional wall demolition accessories, and their work efficiency was higher than that of the past hoes and shovels. More than a hundred times.

The masonry used to repair the city wall has also become the best road construction material, which is expected to be more than enough for the entire new city.

Of course, Xia Fan did not plan to tear down all the southern city walls. He planned to leave the half of the city wall near the sea as a ruins, and maybe it could become a cultural heritage in a thousand years.

The captured Nataltin fleet was also dragged to the shore, and the elves began to be responsible for repairing it.

Except for the three sea-going ships whose keels were damaged and it is difficult to reuse them, the other ships can basically continue to be used after repairing the breach. And the tree species of the elves are very handy in repairing wooden hulls. In just a few days, two single-layer three-masted clipper ships were relaunched.

The princess also took the opportunity to allocate part of her staff and set up her own sea guard.

For the first time, Jinxia City expanded its territory beyond the East Beach.

Although there are various defects in wooden sailing ships, the iron production in Shenzhou is only so small. It is undoubtedly difficult to build a steel fleet. What's more, even for a seemingly thin brig, the keel and ribs need to be air-dried for more than a year, and the processing and assembly time is between two and three years. As for the imperial flagship with a three-layer artillery deck, it needs more than a hundred years of oak to make it. The so-called century-old navy is derived from this.

If Jinxia was asked to build from scratch, then Xia Fan would definitely not be interested, but just like artillery, the free things are completely different-one has a first and second class ships, plus ten ships of different specifications. The sea power of the auxiliary ships is already a strong force that cannot be ignored in this sea area.

Besides, these ships can also be modified.

How to stuff them with astronomical instruments and propellers, and remove the front and rear sub-masts so that a rotatable turret can be installed on the deck have all been included in the research agenda of the Mechanism Bureau.

With troops that can go deep into the sea, Jinxia City can guarantee that future maritime trade will not be blocked.

A month later, several ships suddenly appeared in the East China Sea.

The people in the city noticed that the ships coming this time did not arouse Jinxia City's vigilance and marking as before.

They slowly docked at the pier, and unexpectedly, Her Royal Highness herself appeared outside the east wall, as if she was welcoming the arrival of the other party.

The news quickly spread in the streets.

This fleet comes from the Yama Kingdom across the ocean.

...

Shangyuan City, within the imperial palace.

Ning Qianshi was looking at the eaves in a daze. The sound of pattering water outside the conservatory was endless, but it was not the sound of rain falling, but the sound of melting snow on the roof. Snow water trickled down layer by layer along the tiles, pulling out a sparse water curtain beside the eaves.

It wasn't until Fei Nian entered the greenhouse that the silence was broken.

"Your Highness, according to the reports of the spies, the official road connecting the north and the south has been partially restored, and there are still many muddy places, but it is only an obstacle to driving, and it is completely possible to trek with two feet."

Ning Qianshi never felt that the snow season in the past was as long as this year, but fortunately it is finally over.

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "In that case... let's implement it according to the plan."

"Yes, this subordinate understands." Fei Nian cupped his hands and said.

After the other party left, he turned his gaze to the far south again.

Whether it's the imperial sister or Xia Fan...

It's time to end this farce.
