"You Li Yan, after being the deputy city lord for so long, your skills have not improved, but your face has become thicker and thicker."
Fang Fan laughed and cursed, but Li Yan didn't take it seriously and just laughed beside Fang Fan.
Tang Jiajun, who was behind Fang Fan, nodded to several people, but they did not dare to look at each other and nodded in response.
After saying hello, Tang Jiajun left directly, and soon the fully loaded building ship began to unload cargo and people.
"I don't have any eyesight, Li Mo, Li Yan go up to help, Su Li is coming with me."
"yes."
When it came to business, Li Yan didn't smile playfully. He walked directly towards Tang Jiajun. After saying a few words, he started to help, directing personnel, mobilizing materials, and unloading ships.
As city lords, they can do this with ease, making the unloading orderly and improving efficiency.
Fang Fan ignored this after a few glances, and turned to look at Su Li beside him.
"This time it went more smoothly than expected. For confidentiality reasons, the machine beast was not put into use. The actual combat test is naturally nonsense."
"Um."
Su Li nodded. He obviously knew this a long time ago, so he didn't show any surprise.
"But now the small world has completely fallen into our hands, and a space channel has been opened to connect to the island in the middle of the lake."
Fang Fan didn't hide it from him and spoke directly. Su Li's eyes lit up when he heard this and he couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Seriously? No one can come in or out to deliver news?"
Fang Fan was very satisfied with his surprise, smiled and nodded, affirming.
"It is completely under our control. No one can enter or exit, and no one can send messages across space."
"Then this is simply the most perfect testing ground. It covers an area as large as a province, can be completely kept secret, and has countless fifth-level mutant beasts, covering almost all types of terrain.
This... this is perfect, wait a minute, my lord, if you keep me here, you don’t want to move the entire Equipment Manufacturing Department in, right?"
Su Li looked at Fang Fan in surprise.
Fang Fan looked at Su Li with a smile and asked.
"Isn't it suitable? Isn't that why we put so much effort into grabbing the small world and monopolizing it directly?
A testing ground that can be completely kept secret, a logistics warehouse without worrying about danger, a large, high-yield grain warehouse, etc."
Fang Fan looked at Su Li and continued.
"Now that Small World has been acquired, we must put it into use and maximize its effects so that our efforts will not be wasted.
And haven't you already been complaining about the fact that the Equipment Manufacturing Agency has spies flying all over the place, and that every few weeks a platoon of them is sent out for target practice?
Have you long complained that there is no test site and cannot collect experimental data? Why can't it be accurate for you now, but you don't want it?"
"No, no, I'm not happy enough, I'm just a little surprised."
Su Li said happily, but just after he finished speaking, another question appeared on his face.
"Lord, although I don't know exactly how you took over the small world, I think this should be top secret.
Since it is top secret, it must not be known to others.
But such a big move as the relocation of the Equipment Manufacturing Department was really difficult to cover up in my environment where meticulous work was everywhere.
Such a large equipment manufacturing department occupies a huge area and there are not many places where it can be moved. Once it disappears out of thin air, they will definitely be guessing.
When the time comes, our occupation of the small world is very likely to be exposed, so wouldn’t it undermine the overall situation of the lord?"
Su Li asked, although he is a girl-controlled technology nerd who is obsessed with institutions and his sister every day, but this does not mean that he does not have a little overall perspective. He can actually figure out many things, such as now, otherwise he would not be able to secure his equipment.
For the position of Director of Manufacturing, there can be at most one chief researcher.
"You have to do this. The relocation is destined not to happen overnight. The first one to be relocated must be the research department. It is not difficult to move to the island in the middle of the lake.
And then, you can draw out the elites little by little, and then reorganize the equipment manufacturing department in the small world.
With your ability, you should be able to do it without alerting them."
"Well, my lord, what I mean is that the Equipment Manufacturing Department still exists, but it will gradually shift to large-scale, high-volume, low-level equipment manufacturing.
The high-tech, highly confidential, and powerful small and medium-volume production work is produced by the New Equipment Manufacturing Agency.
At the same time, it also undertakes the main equipment development tasks."
Fang Fan nodded slightly.
"If you encounter difficulties during the implementation, you can come to me."
"clear."
Su Li nodded and left. The greeting was over. He was also a busy man. Now that he had received a new task, he naturally went on to get busy.
To be honest, he was a little excited at the thought of being able to test and even build large-scale mechanisms at will in the future.
If a weapon is forged and not used, it is simply a crime.
It's like buying a hydraulic press and still having it at home. It's simply unforgivable and intolerable.
After Su Li left, Li Yan, Li Mo, and Tang Jiajun presided over the unloading of goods in the early stage and chose to leave after getting on track.
After the cargo is unloaded and the fleet completes short maintenance, it will set sail again to pick up the next batch of troops and supplies.
At that time, Fang Fan had returned to Ning'an with Tang Jiajun, Li Yan, and Li Mo.
The port is still some distance from Ning'an, but not far, and it is within the radiation range of Ning'an.
Compared to the fanfare at the port, Ning'an is relatively low-key.
Under the salute of 81 cannons, escorted by 10,000 troops, and welcomed by tens of thousands of people, Fang Fan slowly entered Ning'an sitting on the back of a dragon elephant.
After delivering a speech during the triumphal ceremony and having a few drinks with his subordinates, Fan quietly returned home.
Looking at his mother, Qingqing, and Sun Shangxiang who had been waiting at the dining table for a long time, Fang Fan put aside all precautions, relaxed his whole body, showed the most natural smile on his face, and spoke softly.
"I'm back."
"Let's eat when we get back."
Ye Xiuying picked up the chopsticks, pointed at the food on the table that had obviously been heated several times and said softly.
Fang Fan sat down and enjoyed this peaceful, ordinary dinner with his mother, Qingqing, and Sun Shangxiang.
After the meal, Fang Fan's impetuous heart became calmer. Just like a ship returning to port, he also returned to his own harbor.
However, just as a large ship can sail, Fang Fan did not stay in the comfortable harbor for too long.
After dinner, I sat with my family in front of the vines, chatted, and admired the moon. After they all fell asleep, I disappeared back home.
After finding Tang Jiajun who had been waiting for a long time, Li Yang had just left when Fang Fan passed by. He nodded to Tang Jiajun. Fang Fan left Ning'an on the first night after returning.
