On the third day after the Earl was laid to rest, the weather in Beiling was still good, with cloudless skies and bright sunshine, and even the temperature had risen a lot.
Tang Mo lay on the soft bed and opened his eyes. Today was the day he was leaving Beiling and returning to Bunas.
He carefully moved the slender arms hanging on his chest to the side, got out of bed and stretched out.
Alice hugged his waist from behind with sleepy eyes, and said sweetly: "Stay for a few more days... I don't want you to leave so soon."
"There are too many things waiting for me to do. I can't do it without leaving Wenrou Township." Tang Mo held Alice's tender arm and comforted him: "Soon, the railway will be built to Beiling. By then,
It may only take you five hours to get to Bunas."
"Don't lie to me." Alice felt that there couldn't be such a fast car in the world that could shorten the distance between two places.
"How could I be willing to lie to you..." Tang Mo moved Alice's arm away, turned around and looked into her eyes: "Trust me."
I have to say that Alice's eyes are super big and beautiful. They are a pair of eyes that can see light. Although they lost their aura a few days ago, they seem to be more agile now.
The power of love is indeed great, it nourishes young girls, or should be called young women now.
When a woman chases a man, even though Tang Mo doesn't want to take advantage of others' danger, the fragile Alice takes the initiative to offer her body. Tang Mo really has no reason to continue to be Liu Xiahui.
He is just cautious, not a gentleman. There is a beautiful woman who is like a fairy throwing herself into his arms, so there is no reason for him to take the initiative to push her out.
So, just yesterday, the two people finally made fire and came together. Now, on the messy bed, you can still see the traces of the two people's absurdity last night. The little plum blossom also proves that Tang Mo gained a lot last night.
Although it is not good to do this during the Earl's funeral, it is obvious that if he does not leave something for Alice, the new Earl of Northridge will definitely not let him go easily.
However, Tang Mo felt that he had stayed in Beiling for too long, so he had to rush back to Bunas to see the development results of Bunas after he left.
Originally, Tang Mo was not the kind of person who cherished the love between his children, so he kissed Alice again, and then said, "Beiling is yours now, Lord Earl."
"If I marry you..." Alice looked at Tang Mo with watery eyes and said softly.
"Don't be stupid, it belongs to you." Tang Mo interrupted her and said, "This is your father's business. You have to help your father take care of everything here... This is your responsibility.
It’s also my responsibility.”
"Then I'll wait for you here! My dear." Alice bit her lips, feeling extremely charming at this moment.
All a cute girl needs to become a lustful girl is one man. Tang Mo swallowed his saliva and felt that his lower body was starting to think instead of his head again.
Heroes are saddened by beauties, and the gentle village is sometimes the hero's grave. By the time Tang Mo thought of his grand ambition for hegemony again, it was already the next morning.
However, this time, Alice did not keep Tang Mo, but left the room before Tang Mo woke up.
She went to inspect the mine and left decisively. After Tang Mo had breakfast in Wolf City, he returned to Bunas with his guards and Weiss.
As for Tiger, he stayed in Beiling. On the one hand, he helped Alice control the army, and on the other hand, he gave Tiger a chance to find Chumro in Beiling.
"You're back." When Tang Mo returned to his office, he found Roger, Leo, Matthews and others there.
He took off his coat, hung it on the wall, sighed and said, "Why are you all here?"
"There has been too much bad news recently, so we decided to give you a surprise." Roger showed a smile and explained to Tang Mo.
"You won't let me guess, will you?" Tang Mo took off the pistol under his arm and looked at everyone and asked.
"Well, it's like this, Master, our light bulbs have been produced, and the effect is very good." Matthews reported to Tang Mo the results they obtained after Tang Mo left.
He showed off proudly, then took out a round light bulb from his pocket and handed it to Tang Mo like a treasure.
Tang Mo took the light bulb that he had seen many times in another world and could hardly see anymore, and looked at it carefully.
The tungsten wire inside has been processed to be very fine, and tungsten is actually a rare material in Bunas.
To be honest, Tang Mo spent a lot of money to get this kind of raw material. But after seeing the finished product of the light bulb, he knew that everything was worth the money.
"It's worth it! It's absolutely worth it!" Roger, who seemed to have figured out what Tang Mo was thinking, who had always felt that Tang Mo purchased rare materials at a high price, said excitedly.
He has seen this thing glowing in a factory. When the entire factory is illuminated by a few light bulbs, the night is no longer so long.
Because the lighting is so good, some workers are even reluctant to leave the factory after get off work. They just gather there, chatting and playing cards happily.
As one of the easiest games to popularize, cards have been spread in Tang Mo's factory. Everyone likes to play a few games in their free time. If the bets are not too big, Parker will not interfere too much.
"We have used this kind of light bulbs in several new factories. The work there is almost non-stop now. Some new workers were replaced at night. Working overtime, our production speed of rails has been directly increased to the original two hours.
Times!" Matthews said proudly.
There are no labor laws these days, so three shifts definitely don't exist. Two shifts are enough to achieve 24-hour non-stop production.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It made Tang Mo feel that he was almost inhumane. Even though he worked the night shift, there was no night shift subsidy. Everyone received the same salary as when they worked during the day.
Those workers are even willing to work night shifts so that they can take advantage of the daylight to go out for a walk after get off work, saving them from having to use candles and oil lamps when they go home at night.
"Another workshop that uses light bulbs for lighting is the train production workshop. We have manufactured two locomotives and the third one is in production."
"The train from Bunas to Station 2 can leave once a day, which is so convenient. Workers can even take the train to work, and it can also transport goods from the terminal to Station 2."
Tang Mo's railway tracks have been connected. From the self-operated terminal to the factory area, and then to the No. 2 station in the vicious forest, Tang Mo's industries have been connected by the railway tracks.
For a distance of less than 20 kilometers, a round trip by train only takes 40 minutes at most. This efficiency is enough to make the horse-drawn carriage drivers stunned.
There was no way, what Tang Mo took out directly was a mature design that had been tested for decades, so as soon as its performance appeared, it completely crushed all other means of transportation in this era.
With this thing, transportation will become very convenient, and wars will therefore revolve around railways and transportation lines.
That kind of aimless attack will turn into a fierce battle for transportation nodes along the transportation lines. What Tang Mo is building is not just transportation lines, but lifelines.
As long as he is willing, the goods departing from Beiling now can be transferred to Bunas by train as long as they are transported to Station 2.
Of course, because of the short distance and the time required for unloading and loading, the advantages of such transshipment may not be obvious yet.
But once Tang Mo opens up the Vicious Forest and connects the railway to Beiling, the railway transportation will immediately show its advantages.
By then, the distance between Northridge and Bunas will become almost non-existent, and the two places will be completely connected as a whole, becoming the Northridge-Bunas economic circle.
"What about our secret weapon? Is it already ready?" Tang Mo looked at Matthews aside and asked curiously.
"Yes! Master! This may be the most powerful weapon created by mankind so far!" Matthews' expression became serious and he said solemnly: "With it, Bunas will be invulnerable and become a powerful weapon."
The strongest fortress!"
"Let's go and take a look at our new toy." Tang Mo motioned for a few people to follow him, and soon they arrived at the platform.
Taking the train, Tang Mo and others quickly arrived at Station 2, which had been built by Tang Mo into a new secret factory. In the factory building, Tang Mo's new weapons, which had begun to take shape, were parked.
C80 howitzer! A behemoth that was improved from the C64 field gun! This thing weighs two tons, and its caliber has jumped from 75 mm to 120 mm, and its range has reached an astonishing 6 kilometers.
This thing actually has very poor maneuverability, and is almost at the limit of what a war horse can drag. It is very troublesome to deploy, and the ammunition is also very heavy.
But... Tang Mo had trains, and he produced a batch of flat-bed wagons to carry these cannons. Relying on the rails laid in advance, his cannons could quickly maneuver to any location where they were needed, and then fire immediately.
This is almost the prototype of the train gun, and it is a very domineering prototype. One of Tang Mo's trains can pull a dozen cannons and a large number of artillery shells to the battlefield, giving enemy troops attacking Bunas from any direction
A head-on blow.
In fact, Tang Mo only needed to deploy a dozen cannons to provide artillery support everywhere, which greatly reduced his defensive pressure.
Therefore, no matter where Cyric attacks Tang Mo from above, they actually have to face Tang Mo's super fire support.
Just judging from the caliber and quality of the artillery, Cyric has already lost, and lost very completely.
