(Sorry for the small mistake: the name of the battleship should be "xx" instead of "xx". Thank you for your opinion, I will correct it later.)

Zhang Hao stood next to the dock, watching the craftsmen busy, and his heart was filled with endless imagination about the future.
Currently, there are five 10,000-ton warships in the dock that have entered the final outfitting stage.
In addition, the Dayang Group's first 20,000-ton warship has also begun outfitting; according to the current work efficiency of the Dayang Group, maybe the Zhenyuan will be able to go to war next month, and may be able to catch up with the war against the Mirage.
To this end, Zhang Hao even slightly adjusted the engineering team-selecting a few outstanding craftsmen from the rest of the team to "study" at the Zhenyuan shipyard.
It doesn't matter if other battleships are delayed for more than ten days, technological progress is the key.
Zhang Hao watched for a while and finally left with satisfaction. Next, Zhang Hao was going to retreat for a while. It seemed like nothing would happen for the time being.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Hao had just returned home and had not had time to eat dinner when Hu Yinglan came. After seeing Zhang Hao, Hu Yinglan sighed a little and said, "Zhang Hao, His Majesty doesn't seem very happy to see you."
Zhang Hao frowned slightly: Why did he make the queen unhappy? Liu Xinyu's temper has become increasingly good recently.
Hu Yinglan didn't know either, or it was inconvenient to reveal it, so she just urged Zhang Hao to get on the road quickly.
Zhang Hao arrived at the imperial capital, Anqing, in the middle of the night! Now, Liu Xinyu has moved the imperial capital of Qixia Kingdom here to the old capital of Jinyang Kingdom.
When they first met, Liu Xinyu was a little annoyed and asked in an unfriendly tone: "Zhang Hao, we are blocking the trade routes of the Country of Qingyun, and now the things belonging to your Dayang Group are still being sold to the Country of Qingyun!
Should you give an explanation?"
Zhang Hao looked at Liu Xinyu's angry expression and smiled helplessly, "Your Majesty, I was actually planning to report this matter to you."
"Okay, tell me!" Liu Xinyu raised her eyebrows, and the Queen's majesty came to her face. The current Qixia Kingdom is fifteen thousand miles wide, and its land area is already two times larger than the Kingdom of Taihua and the Kingdom of Canglan.
The total area of the country is the largest country in the west of the Fertile Continent - it may be smaller than the current Shaoze Kingdom, but the current national power of the Shaoze Kingdom is far from comparable to the Qixia Kingdom.
Moreover, the country of Qixia is also a country of industry and commerce. The advantages of industry and commerce are gradually revealed. The country is becoming more prosperous and powerful, especially the emerging industrial and commercial class. This is unmatched by other countries.
The country is becoming more and more powerful, and the Queen's majesty is also growing day by day. However, the "Inspection Department" that Zhang Hao has laid the foundation for is still in a latent state, and of course cannot check and balance the Queen's power for the time being.
Zhang Hao looked at Liu Xinyu and said slowly: "Your Majesty, there is a saying: You can have enough food and clothing by yourself!
In terms of technological research and development, it is most consistent with this concept.
Different from resources, if resources are cut off, they will be cut off. This thing will not appear out of thin air. But technology is different. Technology... really just appears out of thin air!
Now that Dayang Group's technology has spread, if we don't give the technology to Qingyun Country, they can research it themselves!
Your Majesty, we should take certain measures to suppress the Qingyun Kingdom’s ability to conduct self-research and development. And the best way is... we sell things to them!"
Liu Xinyu calmed down, frowning and thinking. The ideas proposed by Zhang Hao were a bit strange to her, but the queen finally came to her senses:
Yes, I gave it to you, so you don’t have to study it yourself.
Zhang Hao paused for a moment and began to explain in detail:
"We can increase the price appropriately, but the price should not be too expensive and should be significantly lower than their research costs. This will make them feel that although it is more expensive, it is still inappropriate to do their own research. And this will also squeeze the market for their own research.
space."
"Let them use our technology and use our standards. As time goes by, they will gradually lose the ability to conduct self-research and development. When industry and commerce continue to develop into a large network, the country of Qingyun will be a caged bird, unable to fly anywhere."
Can’t fly out!”
"Use our technology and equipment to quietly support the industrial and commercial classes within the Kingdom of Qingyun. It would be best if we could win them over."
"As long as we can control the technology and market of the Country of Qingyun, we can indirectly control the Country of Qingyun. We can even use it as a dumping ground for our products. We will sell our backward technology at the price of new products."
…
That night, Zhang Hao and Liu Xinyu started a discussion about modern trade war. At first, Liu Xinyu could ask a few questions, but gradually it was Zhang Hao who was talking, and Liu Xinyu sometimes felt like she didn't understand.
Unknowingly, fish belly white appeared in the east, and Liu Xinyu looked at Zhang Hao with bright eyes.
Liu Xinyu benefited a lot from this night's conversation. The most important thing was that through this conversation, Liu Xinyu was exposed to another level of war for the first time - technology, politics, economy, and trade.
What Zhang Hao said may be a bit general, but Liu Xinyu is not an idiot. A brand new national expansion system appeared in front of Liu Xinyu.
"It turns out that this is how industry and commerce develop, and the country under industry and commerce is like this...wait a minute!" Liu Xinyu suddenly looked at Zhang Hao, "Does Dayang Group do the same to the country?"
Zhang Hao looked innocent, "Your Majesty, absolutely not! I hope that the country of Qixia can become extremely powerful and become the strongest backing of Dayang Group.
If Dayang Group wants to develop and grow, it needs a foothold. This foothold needs to have a complete industrial system and business environment that can provide everything Dayang Group needs.
For example, talents, resources, various supporting facilities such as railways, etc. And these need to rely on the power of the country to achieve.
In fact, I believe that a country is like a fruit tree, and Dayang Group is just a fruit on the tree."
"I think it's not a fruit, but a trunk!" Liu Xinyu looked at Zhang Hao with a smile, and suddenly waved to the people around them, who all retreated, leaving Zhang Hao and Liu Xinyu alone in the imperial study.
Zhang Hao suddenly became wary - he was only at the peak of the middle stage of Jindan now, and Liu Xinyu should be at the middle stage of Nascent Soul, or even the later stage.
What if...
Zhang Hao was just thinking when he heard Liu Xinyu sigh quietly, "Zhang Hao, I came to you this time, in addition to the affairs of the Qingyun Kingdom, there is another... very important matter.
That's...that's...it's...a matter of marriage!"
Zhang Hao wanted to run away with his head in his arms, but Liu Xinyu suddenly mentioned this, obviously it was not because his head was hot! Thinking of the last time Liu Xinyu joked about getting a concubine... Zhang Hao shuddered in his heart.
Liu Xinyu continued: "I... am a woman after all. I have thought about it for a long time. For the sake of the country, I cannot get married!"
Zhang Hao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next moment, Liu Xinyu continued: "But... I need a... child!"
(I’ve been having a hard time during this period, I have a headache, I’m craving for food, I’m craving for immortality, I’m craving for death!)
