Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 140 Project Advancement

With the joining of these professional scholars from Langton, various research projects at the Eagle's Mouth Cliff Base can finally be carried out smoothly, instead of waiting for Perficott to solve technical problems one by one.

Biologist Professor Ariel leads research on related technologies for greenhouse and cold climate crop cultivation.

Professor Heller took his students to the coal mine on a small train the day after the welcome banquet, intending to study what the permafrost was like first.

Professor Archibald, an expert in engineering, is responsible for assisting Purficott in completing research on new steam turbines. Together with him, he is also responsible for this project among the three alchemy professors who came to the north this time. of one.

Yes, there is only one professor in other fields, but three professors from the Alchemy Department came at once, and they also brought their most proud disciples and students.

Obviously, these professors of the Alchemy Department hope to repair the relationship with Perficott in this way, at least so that the Northern Earl will not be disgusted with them.

Purficott really didn't care about this, so after the three professors apologized to her, she accepted their apologies.

Then Purficott threw all three research projects in his hand to them.

I have to say that with professional professors presiding over the project, the research progress has improved a lot.

At least with the joint efforts of Professor Archibald and Professor Campbell who cooperated with him, the turbine blades needed by Purficott were quickly produced, and the material used was exactly the chromium alloy she said.

"My lord, you are indeed Langton's most talented engineer and alchemist. The design of this new steam engine is really a genius idea!" Professor Archibald praised Perficott, and at the same time expressed regret: " It’s a pity that you don’t have a steel factory here and lack the ability to further process the metal. Otherwise, I can try to further improve the performance of the material.”

Obviously, through research on chromium alloys, Professor Archibald concluded that this material can further improve its performance after heat treatment.

In this regard, Purficott thought for a while and said: "In New Shaker City in the New World Colony, there is a steel merchant, Mr. Andrew, who has received my funding. He is currently responsible for producing parts for the Steam Knight Armor for me.

If you, Professor Archibald, need assistance in this regard, you can go to New Shaker City to find Mr. Andrew. I don’t think he will refuse my request. "

Hearing Purficott say this, Professor Archibald showed a happy expression, but after thinking about it for a while, he shook his head regretfully and said: "The New World colonies are really far away from the north, and transportation is inconvenient in winter. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us..."

"No, in fact, if you just travel between the New World colonies and the North, it is very simple to have an airship." Purficott smiled at Professor Archibald, and then said: "You can Using my airship, it should be able to travel between the North and the New World colonies in a short time.

In fact, I do need it to travel between the New World colonies and the North, responsible for purchasing various supplies and medicines.

It has to be said that the northern territory is indeed lacking in products now. If you want to have nothing, you can only rely on external input. "

"Thank you for your generosity, Lord Earl. I think the situation in the North will get better soon. With a talented leader like you, I believe the future of the North will be bright." Professor Archibald told Perd Ficott said complimentary words, but his attitude was very sincere, as if he really meant it.

Purficott was noncommittal about this. She just said that the North currently lacks too many things and has too many things to do: "Everything is a mess. Although I took over the role of Guardian of the North, responsibilities, but how to open up the northern border is still something that makes me unsure. Fortunately, your arrival has given me a lot of confidence. At least I am no longer the only one to shoulder this important task. Thank you for your support. assist.

In the future, there will be many places in the north that need to rely on you, so please don’t be stingy with your wisdom.

Although you all came to the North for the Arctic scientific expedition plan, I still hope that you can make some contributions to the people in the North, and I will also thank you accordingly based on your contributions. "

Purficott knew clearly that with the revelation of the end of the world in the future, these professors would inevitably stay in the north.

So she is not shy about promising things, especially when these things come at no cost.

Professor Archibald naturally understood what Perfectcott meant. Although with his academic achievements, it would not be difficult to win a knighthood or a knighthood for himself in the future, there is still an obvious difference between this and the official title of nobility. disparity.

So the price offered by Purficott is undoubtedly very attractive to him.

"Please rest assured, Lord Earl, I will contribute my talents to the empire and the north." Professor Archibald bowed slightly to Perficott reservedly.

Purficott was very satisfied with his answer, so he took the initiative to say to him: "According to my plan, there will be an industrial city in the north that will be responsible for exporting industrial products to the entire north. I am also concerned about the design of this city. I need to use Professor Archibald’s wisdom from you.”

"Although I have never designed a city, if I am of any use, please speak up, Earl." Professor Archibald gave an affirmative answer.

This makes Purficott very happy. According to the news that Princess Anne told her, the empire has now begun recruiting the first group of pioneers and immigrants who want to come to the north. They will be there after the waterway is restored in the spring of next year. was sent over.

So before that, Purficott had to make a plan on how to place these people.

Although the empire will provide sufficient assistance, she is now the lord of the north, and she still has to do one thing.

Princess Anne had a frank talk with Purphycott. If Purphycott felt that things were too much and cumbersome, the royal family would send someone to take over everything, but correspondingly, her title of Guardian of the North would become just that. title.

But if Perficott took matters into her own hands, the royal family would always recognize her right to rule the North.

This remains unchanged even after the empire moves from the mainland to the north after the end of the world, and this has been confirmed by the Queen.

In other words, as long as Purficott survives this most difficult time, she will be the most powerful person in the entire Victoria Empire after the end of the world.
