Chapter 906: Roaring and Exploding
For such a huge project, the manpower and material resources that need to be mobilized are undoubtedly huge.
It is not difficult to mobilize various building materials, resources and equipment.
The troublesome place really lies in the 'manpower'.
Flip through the statistical report of the various projects in front of you.
The construction of the frontline fortress should be completed within this month.
At that time, the engineering team will be directly transferred to pave the way.
However, considering the amount of engineering and efficiency issues, this manpower is still somewhat insufficient.
According to Luo Ji's thoughts, he wanted to pave the way for all the civilizations of the Myriad Realms before he officially ascended to the black iron rank.
Because this is related to the support efficiency of his subsequent defensive battles.
Counting the time now, it's been a few years since he was forcibly promoted to the black iron rank.
The action has to be accelerated quickly.
After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Luo Ji set his sights on the Beidi Mountain City under construction.
As early as last year, the construction of the outer city wall of Beidi Mountain City was completed.
The construction of the city is also about one-fifth completed.
Now that he is in desperate need of paving workers, he has no choice but to transfer people from the northern mountain city.
The big deal is to go back and transfer a group of coolies to help with the construction of the mountain town here.
After a round of arrangement and several orders were issued, the entire civilization of the world continued to operate at a high speed.
By the time the project officially started construction, the season had already entered summer.
The subsequent torrential rain made the Wanjie Civilization, which has endured summer droughts for years, fall into a carnival!
He looked up and felt the heavy raindrops hitting his face.
At this moment, even Luo Ji, who had always been calm, could not hide the ecstasy on his face.
A heavy rain this summer proved that the catastrophic little ice age finally let them get through it!
As long as we get through these tough days, the people's lives will undoubtedly be much better in the winter and summer in the future.
At the same time, crops can grow better, and food production is also increased.
It gave Luo Ji a feeling of suffering.
However, before he could be happy for a while, a loud roaring noise suddenly came from a distance!
Hearing this exaggerated movement, Luo Ji's heart tightened as if he had remembered something.
After that, I didn't have time to say anything, and hurried to the direction of the Ordnance Research Department.
Before he could officially approach, he could already see a large amount of black smoke rising from the sky above the Ordnance Research Department from a long distance.
The explosion just now probably set the entire Ordnance Research Department on fire.
Fortunately, it was raining heavily in the sky. Judging from this situation, the fire should have been basically put out.
Such exaggerated movements naturally attracted the attention of many people.
The people from the patrol team in the city also arrived at the scene immediately.
And pulled up the isolation belt to block off the entire area nearby, prohibiting ordinary people from approaching.
After passing through the isolation belt, Luo Ji quickly walked into the Ordnance Research Department with a group of guards.
The high wall around the Ordnance Research Department is nothing.
But the internal office building collapsed in half, and the source of the black smoke was undoubtedly here.
This scene made Luo Ji's whole heart instantly hang in his throat.
If he remembered correctly, that location was Ye Xuan's office!
After glancing around, Luo Ji directly locked onto Zhao Lei, the now disgraced Deputy Minister.
At the same time, Zhao Lei also clearly saw Luo Ji, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute...
"Wei Chen Zhao Lei, see Your Majesty!"
Luo Ji, who was in a very anxious mood at this time, obviously didn't have time to linger, and only heard him ask directly...
"What about your minister?"
"Minister, the Minister is not here..."
Hearing this, Zhao Lei turned back subconsciously, but the whole person was instantly dumbfounded.
Depend on! What about such a big living person? It must have been here just now!
"This this……"
This time, Zhao Lei stammered when he spoke.
In the end, still standing aside, Wang Kai suddenly pointed in one direction.
"Your Majesty, do you think that is Minister Ye?"
Hearing this, Luo Ji hurriedly looked in that direction.
At this moment, Ye Xuan was lying on a fairly clean wall, holding a piece of charcoal she didn't know where she picked up in her hand, using the charcoal as a pen and the wall as paper, and writing frantically on it.
While writing, there are still words in the mouth.
For some reason, the aura of a mad scientist made the members of the Ordnance Research Department standing around a little afraid to approach.
In response, Luo Ji sighed heavily, and without looking back, ordered a guard beside him...
"Go and call the doctor here, and ask someone to transcribe all the content on this wall."
As long as people are still alive, everything is fine.
Moreover, looking at Ye Xuan's posture, it seems that he was not seriously injured.
The heart that was hanging in Luo Ji's throat was finally put back in his stomach at this moment.
There is no doubt that what Ye Xuan is researching is gunpowder.
During the winter, Luo Ji had just gathered all the materials for making gunpowder.
However, for something as dangerous as gunpowder, it is obviously impossible to find out the specific formula.
Therefore, Luo Ji could only put together the required materials and give them to ye Xuan to study slowly.
Although before that, he has been instructed to study carefully.
But the explosion still terrified him.
But fortunately, Michelle Ye was also relatively clever. During the ignition experiment, she avoided herself first, otherwise, looking at the power of the explosion, I am afraid it would be really fatal.
Dangerous experiments like this should have been done in the open experimental field outside.
But it was raining heavily today, and Michelle Ye had adjusted the formula again, so she didn't listen to anyone's persuasion and wanted to experiment quickly.
Afterwards, according to the examination results of the doctors, Michelle Ye's injury was not serious, it was basically a little flesh wound.
This can be clearly seen from the fact that after the big explosion, she still had the strength to run to the wall next to her and write down the experimental formula ratio of gunpowder.
On the contrary, it was the heavy rain that made her catch a bad cold...
This time, it can be said that it is quite dangerous, and if you are not careful, it is estimated that people will be killed.
Luo Ji felt that it was necessary to give Ye Xuan a little memory.
So, he was quite enlightened and gave her a month-long vacation amid ye Xuan's wailing.
At the same time, two guards, a man and a woman, were specially dispatched to follow her 24 hours a day.
And during this month's long vacation, she is not allowed to touch anything related to ordnance!
Obviously, Luo Ji knew too much how to punish her.
Is there anything more painful than this for ye Xuan, who is obsessed with ordnance weapons research all day long?
The update is sent, thank the book friends for the "unexpected" monthly pass!
