I Want a Low-key Traverser, So I Try to Act in Secret

Many battles took place in the coastal waters and ports. Residents in the port can intuitively feel the maneuverability, speed and firepower of modern warships.

In battles in the open sea, no matter how brave the sailors are, they can only scrape off a piece of paint on the surface of the opponent's warship in the face of direct bombardment, and they can only surrender obediently.

Fortunately, the Iron Fleet is not keen on killing. After sinking their wooden sail warship, they will rescue the sailors who fell into the sea to their steel warship and send them to the corresponding colonial port.

Kneeling on the deck, touching and kissing the metal deck, confirming that it is indeed steel, and then experiencing the voyage for the next few days, even the most stubborn diehards have no will to resist.

Therefore, one and a half months at the latest, the governors of the three colonists of Spartania, Franji, and the Netherlands each took some of their men on an offshore fishing boat and came to Kangaroo Harbor like prisoners awaiting trial.

The two governors of Spartia and the Netherlands came earlier and witnessed the process of the huge steel "monster" building two-thirds of the harbor. Governor Franz came later, but he also saw it from The scene of climbing up to land in the sea.

Regardless of any original plans or expectations, in the face of such an unimaginable scene, all flags and drums died down, and there were only two words or one word from body, mind and soul: surrender.

The three governors surrendered to Li Xu without any conditions and gave up all the rights and interests in Kangaroo Leah.

The three originally thought that they would be imprisoned in exchange for a large amount of ransom from their respective families before they could be freed, but they did not expect that this mysterious officer, who seemed to be from the big Kui Dynasty in the north, would let them go easily. They returned to their respective colonies, managed the people and waited to be ruled.

They didn't even do expulsion, and as long as there were no hostile acts, they could even return to their home countries or other colonies freely.

In this state, the other party actually gave them a detailed road map, and they were welcome to go to a seaport called Taizhou in the south of Dakui for trade activities.

……

On the return journey, the three governors were on the steel warship of the "Da Kuizhao Maritime Trading Company".

Because their fishing boat was too slow, the other party was eager to let them return, so as to appease the colonial people and avoid any irrational things that would cause greater casualties.

Originally, it took more than a month's voyage, but they returned to their respective colonies in only three or four days.

Not through other people, but personally experienced the performance of the steel warship. The three governors all have a recognition: no matter what Sbarnia's invincible fleet or what, it is not worth mentioning in front of this kind of steel warship.

Among them, the feeling of the governor of Sbarnia is more fantasy, and the sense of honor and pride brought by the Armada is completely shattered.

Although it has been known for a long time that the mysterious ancient country in the East is incomparably vast and powerful, is the gap in reality so real?

It's not even the official fleet of the Dakui Dynasty. It's just a private trading company that wiped out their entire army. Even the colony of Kangaroo Leah was completely lost. They couldn't even give birth to any resistance. .

How powerful is the real Da Kui Chao fleet?Are all the people in Dakui Dynasty gods?

The governor really thinks too much. This is the delusional (fantasy) brought about by information asymmetry.

In fact, Frangji and the Dutch people know more about the information of Da Kui Dynasty. Both of them know that although Da Kui Dynasty is huge, the real Da Kui Dynasty navy is no different from them, except that the shape of the ships is different. That's all.

This "Da Kui Chao Maritime Trading Company"... They don't know what's going on. For them who believe in God, maybe it is really sent by God to punish their stupidity and arrogance?

……

Li Xu played for a while, and after getting started with the mining platform, he selected some operators among the "Black Pearl" members among the immigrants, gave them corresponding permissions, and handed over the control of the mining platform to them.

Let them drive themselves, head to the mines, and pave roads along the way.

The "spherical optical brain" only assigns these people very low authority. Except for mining-related equipment and facilities, this platform can only build a few other things in their hands to avoid a situation where the tail is too big to lose.

After finishing all this, Li Xu drove the [Yang Dengxing] and returned to Taizhou, where Da Kui was in charge, within ten minutes.

At this time, it has entered summer, and the agricultural service and infrastructure construction business of "Da Kuizhao Maritime Trading Company" has started in several neighboring provinces.

Due to land annexation in the Dakui dynasty, a large number of high-quality farmlands were concentrated in the hands of a few people, and the phenomenon of "contribution" was common, which actually formed a situation suitable for large-scale mechanized farming in many places.

"Contribution" refers to the fact that many small landlords or self-cultivating farmers brought their land into the name of an official to evade taxes.

Although the Dakui Dynasty did not have a clear rule that officials or those with meritorious names were exempted from taxation and corvee, the scholastic class encircled their own land and insisted on using their privileges to play this kind of "rule of the rivers and lakes" that was acquiesced from top to bottom, which intensified Not to mention the land merger, it further undermined the financial foundation of the entire national system... Anyway, everyone knows what happened later.

I didn't expect that this situation would be conducive to the development of mechanized farming.

The use of machinery to replace manpower in large quantities, such as pesticides and chemical fertilizers, also continue to untie the bondage of land on manpower to a certain extent. Naturally, a large number of neighboring provinces also have a large number of unbundling relations with the landlord class... without Li Xu and Immigrants, these people will naturally be bankrupts, but with Li Xu and immigrants from different time and space, these people will become the basic labor force in the large-scale development.

If there is no solution, this phenomenon of a large amount of surplus labor will arouse the vigilance and anxiety of the feudal ruling class, and those imperial historians and feudal rulers who "follow the rumors" will even stop it at the cost of a decline in productivity. phenomenon.

Speaking of this, Li Xu remembered that before time travelling, he read what the bigwigs said on the Internet, why the feudal small-scale peasant economy did not develop productivity, which is the driving force of science and technology.

After carefully savoring this measure, it is actually very similar to certain practices in the interstellar world, except that the latter is based on highly developed science and technology.

……

Thousands or even tens of thousands of modern immigrants appear in Taizhou every week, and the "transportation sailboat" is also fully operating various materials and equipment.

Starting from Taizhou, the expressway suitable for modern vehicles is moving towards the hinterland of Dakui... The current scale can't be called radiation, it can only be said to spread branches and leaves.

At the same time as the upgrade of the wheels, the car and horse shop also ushered in the second round of transportation changes. With the extension of road construction, the "trading company" took the lead and lent it to Taizhou and nearby cities in the form of modern commercial loans. A sum of money from the major dealers in several state capitals was used to add modern automobiles-vans and coaches.

Railway planning was also put on the agenda...but after careful study, it was found that there was no condition or necessity for the construction of railways in the short term.

With the scale of immigration and the start of the modernization process, the demand for energy in Taizhou has risen rapidly.

In terms of oil, the deployment of several drilling platforms and integrated offshore processing ships to the oil fields in the South China Sea will basically meet the demand in the next few years.

Another shortage is electricity.

In this regard, Li Xu had read a lot of idle books before. According to resources, geography, and development conditions, he planned to go directly to nuclear energy at the beginning—through the interstellar world, he obtained a more safe and efficient nuclear power plant with lower construction cost and difficulty. nuclear power technology.

Under the premise of a relatively primitive feudal society, building a nuclear power plant... This kind of thing is quite emotional just thinking about it.

However, after counting the raw materials on hand, Li Xu found that he could not raise enough "nuclear raw materials" in the short term. His current main source of raw materials is World 02, but the inventory and meager output there are mainly used to maintain himself and his family. It is used for the asteroid underground base in the interstellar world.

So I settled for the next best thing and planned to go to a thermal power plant with a lower difficulty.

Among them, he planned to use the "Supercritical Water Boiling Technology", but after inquiring carefully, the Shi Lingshi Continent of Worlds 01 and 02 hadn't pointed out this technology because of their lack of development.

Developed countries, because of relatively abundant resources and environmental protection issues, have already moved the technology tree away from thermal power to develop other technologies, but there is no such technology.

Finally, in the "spherical optical brain" in the interstellar world, this backward application technology for chemical ore energy was found.

During the long interstellar development process, the human race there seems to have tried various energy utilization methods, and saved the final mature and finalized technology and data in the "spherical optical brain" that requires permission to unlock.

I don't know if it's a kind of vigilance in times of peace or just a pure technical reserve.

I always forget, thanks to the book friends who have been helping to correct errors, touch it O(∩_∩)O haha~

Section 147 0145

Although he has not received professional training, as the helm of the "Black Pearl" Chamber of Commerce across several worlds, Li Xu has a good view of the overall situation and has his own opinions on many things.

For the investment and development of "Da Kui towards the world", he focused on the big and let go of the small, mainly ensuring the supply of steel, energy, and food.

Those with skills can open factories, and those with vision and professional knowledge can apply for companies to do business in trade circulation and logistics.

In view of this situation, after returning to Taizhou, he called Liu Zhanshan over and gave him a word of advice. After Liu Datou led him back, he held a general meeting of shareholders. With the help of some professional assistants from Worlds 01 and 02, the "trading company" The first split and integration was carried out, and an institution of "Da Kui Chao Maritime Trade Bank" was separated.

It's not a prototype, it's not a budding bank, but it's a thoroughly modern bank. Its main business is to provide financial services to local businessmen and immigrants from across the country in the face of the "trading company".

For the time being, there is no intention to open a business with Da Kui, so the bank has not been involved in such a sensitive business as "coin minting rights". Anyway, compared with copper coins, the amount of trade and loans is generally relatively large, and the silver standard or gold standard is enough to support the operation of the bank. .

However, although Li Xu thinks that the development of the "Da Kui Dynasty World" is an experimental action and his personal behavior, since he has introduced the tentacles of the "Black Pearl" Chamber of Commerce, it will inevitably be infiltrated by people from other worlds. In this operation, especially he also introduced a large number of refugees from World 02.

The red ticket of World No. 01 quietly appeared in the internal operation of the "Trade Bank", and it was only used as a large amount of internal currency for the delivery and payment of large trade settlements.

But in Taizhou city... to be exact, outside of the Dakui Dynasty, the bankers are not so virtuous, virtuous and gentle. Everyone knows their true colors, but there is a "black pearl" made by Li Xu The red line of purpose is there, and providing normal financial services is a lucrative business in itself, so there is no need to touch the bad luck of your own boss.

Well-made steel-nickel coins and red notes of various denominations are open for manufacture and supply.

……

Summer is hot, but this world, which has not even experienced the first industrial revolution, naturally does not have environmental problems such as the destruction of the ozone layer and the greenhouse effect.

So as long as you stay in a big reinforced concrete house, even if you don't turn on the air conditioner, it will be very shady.

The whole manor was also set up by the idle sister-in-law to expel microscopic creatures. Even if the doors and windows were opened, there would be no nuisance from annoying insects such as flies, mosquitoes and cockroaches.

Coupled with the greenery in place, it is very comfortable to live in.

Beatrix lay sideways on the hand-woven Ningzhou tatami in a very lazy posture, while watching the program broadcast on the 84-inch smart TV, occasionally laughed "hahahaha", and placed it on her head from time to time. From the fruit plate below, use two fingers to pick up a piece of fruit and put it in the mouth.

It looks quite otaku (Otaku), but I don’t know if she has the skill of riding a tiger B on the face of Ganwumei Xiaobu...

Currently, there is only a communication network in the local area, and there is no "Internet" in the ordinary sense for the public; although the TV station is under construction, it does not have the ability to broadcast news or programs.

Beatrix looked at the contents of Li Xu's original world and the later No. 02 world stored on the local server.

If this room is placed in later generations, it is estimated that [-]% of netizens will recognize it as a Japanese-style building, but it is placed here in the style of the Dakui Dynasty.

Although the floor-to-ceiling windows are old-fashioned, they are not pasted with window paper, but large pieces of flat glass, even tempered.

The front and rear windows are all open, and the cool air with the scent of grass and trees blowing from the purple bamboo forest not far away is blocked by several Japanese-style screens imported from Fuso, forming a soft surrounding three-dimensional wind, bringing coolness to the room at the same time, But it will not be too strong, and the person who blows it will feel uncomfortable.

"Deng deng deng"

There was a sound of footsteps, and the golden retriever knew it was his sister, the white-haired Astalia, without turning around, so he didn't even have the desire to look back, and continued to focus on the big screen in front of him, and got a smile Terrier, hahaha laughed.

"Get off"

Accompanied by the voice, the buttocks were kicked lightly and hard. Beatrix rolled her eyes, clamped the doll pillow behind her back into her arms, squirmed away like a caterpillar, and gave Aspen Tria stepped aside.

When Astoria sat down, she had already changed her position beside her and lay down again.

"Looking at your decadent appearance, you look like a big rice bug"

Astoria probably just finished her fitness, and her hair is still dry after taking a shower, so she wiped her head with a towel while talking.

Beatrix turned her head and stared at her, just when Baimao thought she would charge up with all her teeth and claws in the next second, she heard her say:

"Oh, I see, early menopause"

"You just had early menopause"

Astoria threw the towel on her angrily, knelt down in front of her aggressively, and slapped her buttocks.

"Look at your big ass, if you continue to be lazy like this, you will definitely become the kind of body called a tank in the future"

Beatrix was not annoyed by being slapped hard by her. Instead, she patted her butt with her hands in confusion, rubbed it again, and twisted her neck to the limit to see her butt, but failed .

After thinking about it, she lay down on the tatami and muttered, accompanied by a faint wave of mana, soon a magical image of her body one foot long appeared between the two of them.

"How big is it? Isn't this perfect?"

Beatrix's magic image is like the kind of pinching online games, exactly like her, with her hands spread out on both sides of her body, still spinning slowly... There is no one else here, and the exterior of the image is under her control down, disappeared, revealing the appearance of wearing a top and bottom bikini.

"Not big!? Look at the fat"
