The strongest lord system

Chapter 489 The Forest of Eternity is here!
"Your Majesty, most of the processing after the disaster has been completed, but the situation of our Ziying Empire is not very good." The minister stood in the hall.

Camelia was sitting on top of a large hall, and while looking at the paper in front of her, she said, "Is the war in the northern border over?"

Carlos stood up and said: "It's over, we have fully occupied the northern border, and the second prince has fled with the remaining remnants. Our loss is less than 5000 people. And most of the melee infantry, our muskets The regiment mainly consumes those bullets, and those things are consumed too quickly."

"It's okay, anyway, this kind of thing is for consumption." Camelia said lightly: "After the matter in the northern border is dealt with, let the Musketeers come back. Then start to continue to train the infantry Dressed as a musketeer, I will create at least [-] musketeers within three months."

"Yes." Carlos replied, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, we should try our best to restore our country's economy now, and stop wasting too much energy on the military." An elderly minister stood up and said.

Camelia narrowed her eyes, and she said with a light smile; "What is wasting energy? The strength of a country depends on the strength of their army, and we now have weapons like muskets. If we don't take advantage of the moment to become stronger, You thought those guys would give us a chance."

"But we can wait until our economy recovers. After the disaster, our empire's economy and grain storage have fallen to the brink of danger. In this month alone, at least 30 people died of starvation. Among them, this is equivalent to the population of our imperial capital." The minister said with a sad face: "If any terrible disaster happens now, our Ziying Empire is in danger of subjugation."

Camelia frowned, "I remember that you are the minister in charge of the economy. I think you are getting old, so go back and rest."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. Please think twice. Your blind advocacy of force will only push our empire to a desperate situation." The minister knelt on the ground and cried.

Camelia's face was a little gloomy, and she looked at the guard next to her and waved her hand.

All of a sudden, several people supported the minister and walked outside.

"Your Majesty" the minister's voice continued to come.

"Then you elect another economic minister."

"Yes." Regarding the actions of Her Majesty, those ministers all lowered their heads, but some people's eyes flashed different colors.

"However, we still need to guarantee the food, in addition to speeding up the recovery of farming. Then find a way to buy it from other countries or chambers of commerce that have food." Camelia said lightly.

"But the price of food is generally relatively high now. Although it has dropped now, it is more than three times the price of food before." A minister said worriedly: "Because most of the resources of our treasury were used to build muskets And the production line of the musket, so our treasury is still very empty."

"What about the resources we looted before?" Camelia said in a deep voice.

"Those resources are still a drop in the bucket for our huge empire, so"

Camelia took a deep breath, and she looked at a map that had been standing beside her.

Since she became the queen, the map is almost an indispensable thing around her.

"Then I will send my order to the more than ten small kingdoms around us, asking them to restore the tribute they paid a hundred years ago, and to provide a certain amount of food and supplies to our Ziying Empire every month." Camelia said, A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"What? Restore our tribute from a hundred years ago? But we have stopped those hundreds of years." All the ministers looked at their queen in surprise.

Tribute!

This is the way for small countries to seek survival from the powerful countries around them. The former Ziying Empire was very powerful, so the surrounding small countries were scrambling to pay tribute, but since the fall of Silver Moon City in the Ziying Empire, these All the glory of the past is gone.

"This is really impossible." Carlos frowned and said, "Your Majesty, those kingdoms have just experienced disasters, and it is impossible for them to agree to our tribute request."

"Don't agree? Then we'll fight until they agree." Camelia tapped her fingers on the throne.

Every blow seems to be beating everyone's heart.

"Pass my order, all the neighboring kingdoms must pay tribute to us within a month. If no one is willing to pay tribute, we will send our army." Camelia said in a deep voice; something you want."

Haiyu City.

"This is our big ship. It's really good. Although the main material is wood, it is still very strong on the sea." Gates sighed standing next to Allen.

"However, wooden boats still can't cut through the wind and waves." Allen shook his head, and he said: "Gates, although you have no experience in researching boats, I still want to trouble you, can you think about replacing the current boat with another one?" A material is more stable and faster."

"My lord, this is really a little difficult. After so many years on our mainland, the main material used to build ships is still wood. Although steel is used in some places, that is still a small part, the main reason is that it is really a bit It's too heavy." Ke Luo, who was beside him, shook his head and said.

According to his experience of living by the sea, he has never seen any other material for the hull.

"Not in the past does not mean not in the future. Gates, do you have the confidence to study this aspect? These are some ideas I have sorted out. Although it is a bit messy, I hope it will be useful to you." Allen took out a small The brochure was handed to Gates.

Gates looked at it, his eyes began to change slowly, and then he put away the booklet and sighed: "My lord, now I have to wonder what is in your mind."

Allen smiled, what is in his mind is something that you can't even think of in another world,

"Then tell me if this will work."

Gates was silent for a while, his eyes glanced at the brochure again, and he said: "No problem, I am also very interested in this. But because I am not very familiar with ships, I need some people who are familiar with ships , and there are some models, such as a ready-made ship, which I need to disassemble."

"Man. Ke Luo will help you solve it." Allen looked at Ke Luo beside him.

"Although our place is just like a small fishing village, there are still people who know a lot about boats." Ke Luo said confidently.

Allen continued, "As for the boat you mentioned."

Allen pointed to the big ship in the distance and several medium-sized ships next to it and said, "You can use these for experiments, and dismantle them as you like."

"This big boat is also okay?" Gates swallowed and said.

"Yes. And here I have asked Ke Luo to build a dock, where you can study the hull with peace of mind, and there is also a laboratory for your research, although it may not be as good as Stormwind in terms of equipment. The other side of the city, but it will get better slowly." Allen said with a smile.

Ke Luo thought for a moment and said, "My lord, you have already made up your mind that I will stay."

Allen nodded with a smile: "Because I believe that as long as you are still a goblin who likes science, you will definitely do it."

"Okay, but I still have another problem, that is, the laboratory in Stormwind City. Although I can hand it over to other people, there are some things I still need to do in person, and I also need Madonna and the others to make all the equipment. But This back and forth is still a bit of a hassle," Gates said.

"Don't worry about this, it only takes one day for our ship to go back and forth now." Ke Luo next to him was interrupted by Alan before he could finish speaking.

"Don't worry about this. I will arrange for the Griffin Knights from the Griffin Knights to be responsible for your pick-up and drop-off when they are not in combat. It only takes an hour or two from here in the air to Stormwind City, and a round trip is fine. Less than half a day." Allen said with a smile.

"It seems that the city owner has already taken everything into consideration." Gates said with a smile.

"After all, I know that there are dangers in the sea, but there are also opportunities." Allen said with a smile. He looked at the ocean in the distance, and he said, "Have you ever wondered what will be on the other side of the sea?"

"Because of the danger of the deep sea, no one seems to know about it." Ke Luo shook his head and said.

"Maybe one day, we'll explore those mysteries." Allen said with a smile, "Okay, Ke Luo. How are you doing with the shipbuilding production lines we accepted before?"

"We've already made almost all the arrangements. The place near the inland river is already a simple shipyard." Ke Luo said.

"Well. Next, you have to manufacture those small ships in large quantities. Because your side is close to the sea, you have to take advantage of it. Stormwind City cannot provide you with food forever, but the food in the sea is There are many," Allen said.

"Yes, I see."

At this moment, a black shadow in the air fell down, it was a Hippogryph.

"Snowy night?" Allen looked at the person in surprise.

Xue Ye walked directly to Alan's side and said, "Someone is coming from the Eternal Forest."
