"So the most important thing for Yamatai now is to ensure a stable development environment." Then Bai Feng continued to say to Himiko, Li Cunxiao and Meng Jie. "This time I asked you to prepare, not only to prepare for war with Wei, but also to prevent or delay Wei's capture of Yamatai." "Please teach me, sir!" Himiko said to Bai Feng after hearing this. "First of all, we still have to continue to trade with Wei, and we have to increase the purchase efforts. Of course, the price can be raised a little bit, and there is no need to worry about silver." "This time I also brought a hundred sets of armor and swords from Hanzhong, to be replaced by the guards of the palace." After Bai Feng finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a hundred sets of armor and swords appeared outside the palace hall. Li Cunxiao and Meng Jie were both brightened when they saw this. The 20% iron ingots left by Bai Feng before were used to make armor for the troops of Yamatai, but it has not been completed yet. With these hundred sets of armor and swords, Li Cunxiao and Meng Jie felt more confident. "We need to properly display our military power in front of Wei."

"Wei is now trying to test and understand the strength of Yamatai through trade, so as long as we show the warlike side of Yamatai and show some strength appropriately, Wei will not easily send troops to Yamatai."

Then Bai Feng instructed Himiko.

Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, so Bai Feng had to create an image of the people on Yamatai who were very warlike, and use the steel obtained to make armor and swords, and work hard to build the army.

"Sir, I understand your arrangement."

"But if we start to show off our military power, will Wei still sell iron ore to us as before?"

Himiko is a little worried about this now. After all, the iron ore purchased by Yamatai will still be supplied to the railway construction in Hanzhong after smelting.

"Don't worry about this. Hanzhong has already started large-scale iron ore mining."

"The iron ore trade with Wei has stopped here. Although it has some impact on Hanzhong, it is much smaller than before."

Bai Feng said after listening to Himiko's concerns.

It doesn't matter if Hanzhong uses less iron now. If Yamatai is really captured by Wei, the impact will be huge!

Bai Feng chose to save Yamatai first.

Moreover, after the nitration/glycerin explosives have solved the problems of mass production, storage and transportation safety, it is time to mine iron ore in large quantities.

"Okay, I know what to do."

After listening to this, Himiko immediately had a clue in her heart and said to Bai Feng.

Seeing that Himiko already knew what he was going to do next, Bai Feng said to Li Cunxiao and Meng Jie again:

"The number and height of the watchtowers built in various ports before are still insufficient."

"The new watchtowers should be rebuilt as soon as possible, and the city walls should be reinforced."

"Of course, there is no need to rush this matter. You can let Wen Pin and other naval officers and soldiers come to visit during the construction and reinforcement process."

"If they find that they cannot make a quick decision after attacking Yamatai, they will not rush to attack Yamatai, and they can buy more time for development."

"Finally, the intensity of military training should be increased again. If there is not enough food, please write to me at any time."

Li Cunxiao and Meng Jie remembered all the arrangements made by Bai Feng.

"Sir, we understand!"

Then the two nodded to Bai Feng solemnly.

Li Cunxiao and Meng Jie, who were bored with the lack of war because of training soldiers every day, finally came to their senses now.

After making some arrangements for how Yamatai should deal with the Wei navy, Bai Feng returned to Hanzhong Houfu again.

All of Bai Feng's arrangements above can only prevent Cao Cao from ordering an attack on Yamatai in the future.

The longer the time drags on, the stronger the Wei navy will be, and the less effective this delay will be.

If Cao Cao had a hundred warships, he could have pushed Yamatai in one wave.

Cao Jie didn't know that Bai Feng had already been to Yamatai, and was coming to the study to call Bai Feng for lunch.

"My husband looks a little bad. Is there something wrong with the R\u0026D center or the nitroglycerin/oil explosives workshop?"

Seeing Bai Feng still thinking in the study, Cao Jie couldn't help but ask softly.

"Jie'er?"

Bai Feng looked up after hearing Cao Jie's voice.

"It's not the R\u0026D center, it's the nitroglycerin/oil explosives workshop. The progress is a little different from expectations."

Bai Feng didn't want Cao Jie to know the news that Wei was going to capture Yamatai.

Bai Feng didn't tell Cao Jie about the new content he received from Manager Chen before, for fear that Cao Jie would worry.

And after Bai Feng told Cao Jie, Cao Jie could do nothing but worry.

You can't let Cao Jie go to see Cao Cao, and then tell Cao Cao that Yamatai is where Bai Feng and I will live in the future, and you can't send troops to fight.

"So it's this matter. Didn't my husband always say that the manufacturing process of nitroglycerin/oil explosives is very dangerous, and he didn't urge Wei Boyang and others to speed up the progress."

Then Cao Jie remembered Bai Feng's emphasis on safety when making nitroglycerin/oil explosives, and couldn't help but say to Bai Feng.

I didn't expect Bai Feng to contradict himself.

Bai Feng couldn't help but smile to Cao Jie:

"Jie'er is right, I am a little anxious."

"Husband, don't worry, we still have a lot of time to wait for the results of the nitroglycerin/dynamite workshop!"

Cao Jie then comforted Bai Feng.

"Well, let's go eat."

Bai Feng nodded to Cao Node and said.

While eating, Diao Chan and Cai Wenji, under Cao Jie's instructions, mentioned the recent soap sales data and profits to Bai Feng.

"Sir, now the soap production workshop in Hanzhong, plus the soap production workshop in Yecheng, can produce 60,000 pieces of soap every month."

"My wife will also build a new soap factory in Yizhou and open a soap shop in Yizhou."

"So this year, the profit from the soap is expected to reach about 300,000 taels!"

Diao Chan and Cai Wenji reported to Bai Feng about the situation of the soap workshop.

After Bai Feng heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

"The development of the soap factory is much better than expected."

"You're doing a great job, come on!"

Then Bai Feng smiled at Diao Chan and Cai Wenji.

After Cao Jie saw the smile on Bai Feng's face again, he also encouraged Diao Chan and Cai Wenji:

"My husband is saying that if they hadn't helped me run the soap workshop, the soap workshop wouldn't be as big as it is today."
