Chapter 476 Super Artifact
Although the Han Dynasty was at its peak, things were not peaceful inside.
Chen Xi has already made a lot of guesses about the advancement of historical progress. Every epic event will push China forward one step on the timeline of history.
According to Chen Xi's observation, the current timeline should be around the Song Dynasty.
We also see a few generals drawn by players. The generals from the Sui and Tang dynasties have basically been drawn, and most of the well-known generals have already appeared.
The Song Dynasty only had a very small number of generals, such as Han Shizhong, Mu Guiying and others, which were very small compared to the entire Song Dynasty.
From the Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, the span of this period of time is quite outrageous, which may lead to the concentrated outbreak of some troubles.
Moreover, these troubles all have traces. Every ambitious person who intends to subvert the country has never been a positive figure in history.
The previous seven major bandits, Goryeo's southward migration, and the struggle in the Western Regions were most likely the result of this kind of fate-like arrangement.
It was for this reason that Chen Xi decided to fully enter the development period. After all, doing things in a certain period in a certain period would most likely get a bonus, according to Chen Xi's speculation.
It is precisely because of this mentality that Chen Xi chose development first between war and development.
When it comes to Song, no matter whether it is praise or criticism, there is one fact that cannot be avoided.
That is the wealth of the Song Dynasty!
It is basically a consensus among everyone that the Song Dynasty was prosperous.
Just when Chen Xi was working seriously and not slacking off, the arrival of the messenger made Chen Xi break out in a cold sweat.
"Zichuan! Urgent news from the Western Regions!" Guo Jia handed the information to Chen Xi with surprise on his face.
"What happened again?"
Chen Xi had a headache. He had just thought that this might be the peak period, but he didn't expect it to be so accurate. Could it be that he had been with Guo Jia, the jinx, for too long and had been infected with this damn attribute?
"The project in Liangzhou has produced results!" Guo Jia didn't know what to say. The intelligence was more or less beyond his worldview.
"Okay!" Chen Xi swept away his previous depression, and became full of energy, emitting joy from head to toe .
The intelligence from the Western Regions was very simple, just a few sentences. The core meaning was that the main technical problems of the Sky Garden had been solved. Now as long as Chen Xi allocated resources, the Mohist bosses in Liangzhou would build a Sky Garden for you in minutes.
"What? It's already finished and it's heading towards Luoyang?"
Chen Xi was shocked. Is the Mohist School so hardcore? Can such a magical weapon be created just like that?
However, as the intelligence said, it is a 100-to-1 model. What is nurtured is basically a model, and its carrying capacity can reach the corresponding concentration ratio.
In the intelligence, Mo Jia and Yao Chong basically praised the model as the only one that was enlightened, and it was absolutely worthy of the title of a national artifact.
After continuous improvement, modification and measurement, the model was finally equipped with various etching technologies, and it can even withstand a full-strength attack from the internal energy without too much damage.
The tester was Di Qing himself, and Di Qing's personal feelings were included.
This model, named the Heavenly Palace by the Mohist leader, can basically achieve a terrifying effect, but it is a bit too expensive. Anyway, after adding the burdens of the Western Regions and the Pamir Mountains, Yao Chong basically can no longer afford it.
So the Mohist leaders set off for Luoyang with their finished models and some important issues that had not been resolved yet.
Anyway, after watching it, Chen Xi only has one feeling.
The authentic products of Tiangong are invincible. We have real-name certification in Liangzhou. All we need is money from the court and everything will be settled!
"Zichuan, don't be too happy too soon. Take a look at the material requirements put forward by these big guys!"
Guo Jia looked even more miserable, the kind of pain that comes from seeing good things right in front of you but having no way of getting them.
"The Mohist master completely abandoned the pure steel structure, and then completely reduced the material requirements and developed a castrated version. The data given is still dizzying."
This was also the first time that he questioned Chen Xi's ability to make money. Could the Han Dynasty really make such a horrible thing?
With the cooperation of Yao Chong, the Mohist leaders can mobilize the resources of the entire Liangzhou. However, this effort is not enough, and the huge gap in materials can be imagined.
"Why do you want a castrated version? For a national treasure like this, we should use the best. How can supplies be a problem?"
Chen Xi glanced at Guo Jia with dissatisfaction and asked , "Do you have any misunderstanding about me, the God of Wealth?" "Any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem at all."
Chen Xi even picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. In his opinion, if this aerial carrier could really be completed, it would be an invention of epoch-making significance, and it might even directly change the course of the war.
"Thirty thousand tons of warm-cured iron?" Chen Xi spat out all the water in his mouth the first time he opened the list of materials.
Is it really just about building an aircraft carrier?
Thirty thousand tons of iron, the Mohist school really dared to ask for such an exorbitant amount. How could they even write such an exaggerated thing?
But Chen Xi is still very stable. I, Chen Zichuan, can handle a mere 30,000 tons of steel.
Anyway, it is impossible to use it all in one year. If paying in installments, 30,000 tons is a bit difficult, but it is not a big problem.
Chen Xi personally stepped down to deal with this matter, cutting costs in the name of the country and opening a few more factories. This would solve the problem in two to three years without affecting the regular production of ironware.
At worst, we can capture Zhao Yun and use him as a tool, and build dozens more blast furnaces, and the material problem will be solved.
It’s just that all of this requires warm maintenance, which is a bit troublesome.
Thanks to the warming and nourishing magic circle developed by Tong Yuan, Wang Yue, Nanhua, Zuo Ci and others, the shipment volume has been somewhat high. It is hard to say how long it will take to warm up so much steel.
"Thirty thousand tons of high-quality wood can be replaced by steel!" Chen Xi had a blank expression on his face when reading the second piece of data. So the castrated version was to replace thirty thousand tons of steel with wood, right?
"Forty thousand tons of soil? Can it be replaced by steel?" Chen Xi's face became even more expressionless after reading the third item.
As for the remaining technical personnel and so on, their arrival is not a big problem, and they can even be satisfied now. After all, Central Plains does not have much else now, but it has enough labor force.
Besides, he can also design an affiliated industrial chain based on this, which will not cause any loss to the country's overall economy.
"Isn't this just 100,000 tons of steel? Are these Mohist bosses really okay?" Chen Xi could no longer hide his desire to complain.
What a bullshit castrated version. Is this your conspiracy to ask the imperial court for 100,000 tons of warm-aged steel? And you find so many excuses.
"Wait, lack of steel? Is this my problem? This is not it!" Chen Xi suddenly showed a hearty smile, he found the blind spot.
