Xu Kuang could only hold the first Mushroom Ridge Development Conference to discuss how to spend the six million gold coins.

"Can you tell me how to spend it?"

A group of people looked at each other, six million gold coins, they had never seen so much money.

This time it was York who stood up first.

"I can claim one million gold coins. All the buildings in Mushroom Ridge are under construction. One million gold coins is just enough."

Xu Kuang waved his hand generously and said to York:

"Here, one million gold coins. Remember to write a spending plan of no less than 100,000 words and give it to me for review. It must include construction plans, cost control, cost estimates, and premium presets. Understood. ?".

York's face immediately showed an expression that was uglier than crying.

A group of people were dumbfounded.

Xin Jian stood up and said:

"The army has now expanded to more than 7,000 people, and the monthly military salary exceeds 35,000 gold coins. Not counting their daily meals, consumables ordering, material rotation, weapon ordering, etc., all of which are taken into account. The monthly salary is more than 35,000 gold coins. If it exceeds 100,000 gold coins, I think we can claim two months’ military pay first, which is 200,000. There are also pensions for disabled soldiers. Since some people choose monthly payment, we think we can also claim 100,000 gold coins in this regard. Ten thousand gold coins."

Xu Kuang nodded and was right.

The person in charge of the arsenal said:

"I want to claim 100,000 gold coins and study rocket launchers...".

Xu Kuang just wanted to refute, saying that he had a mature plan here, but he thought about it and said:

"Go ahead, I still have a mature plan here. You can take the mature plan into consideration. Our research has just started. Don't worry about failure. Failure is success. Without failure, there is no success. You must keep a calm mind and give full play to your abilities. Your imagination...".

Xu Kuang talked for a long time, but his mouth felt dry.

Finally he looked at Jenny and asked:

"Jenny, don't you have anything to say?".

Jenny stood up and said to Xu Kuang:

"I still have more than two million yuan in payment for the goods. Do you still want more money here?"

Xu Kuang:......

other people:……

York asked subconsciously:

"That means we have to spend not six million, but eight million, right?"

…

Xu Kuang ordered the factory to expand the production line and make lathes to the best of his ability to see if he could make a batch of lathes specially used for rough cutting.

Hathaway reported a problem, saying there was insufficient power.

Only then did Xu Kuang realize that the original electricity was no longer enough, and now that production is being expanded in various aspects, it is even more insufficient.

Xu Kuang opened the mall and found the power plant. The drawing of the thermal power plant required 100 points, and the physical object required 2,000 points. Xu Kuang chose the drawing.

Xu Kuang exchanged a bunch of drawings and gave them to York. He said to York:

"Your burden is heavy again. Build the power plant as soon as possible. Do you understand?".

York sighed, scratched his bald head, and asked:

"Master, is it too late for me to go back and become a soldier now?".

Xu Kuang smiled bitterly and said:

"Go away and build a house.".

York sat down dejectedly.

All in all, after a whole day of conference, I couldn’t even spend all 8 million gold coins...

…

three days later

The people who went to nearby geological exploration finally came back. Before they had time to drink water, they were pulled to his office by Xu Kuang.

They brought back a bombshell: there is oil nearby!

Xu Kuang quickly asked:

“Where is the oil?”.

A person in charge of geological exploration said to Xu Kuang:

"The oil is just north of Orange Town.".

Xu Kuang suddenly stood up from his chair and asked:

"Are you telling the truth?".

The person in charge said to Xu Kuang:

"It's true, it's absolutely true!".

Xu Kuang took out thousands of gold coins from his storage ring. He didn't even have time to count them, so he handed them over to the group of people.

"You have worked hard, take this money and go have a rest."

This group of people stared at Xu Kuang's handiwork in stunned silence, not knowing what to say.

Xu Kuang quickly held a military meeting.

The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

Two conferences were held in three days, which was a bit overwhelming for everyone.

Xu Kuang looked at everyone and said:

"Everyone, don't worry about running out of gold coins. We can spend all the gold coins we have, and we can also bring ourselves a steady stream of gold coins."

Everyone pricked up their ears and listened carefully.

Xu Kuang said:

"We have discovered oil. As long as the oil is mined, we can make more things, but the oil is in Xiangcheng Town. We can't go to Xiangcheng Town now, so we can only make a plan."

Xu Kuang snorted coldly:

“Although our action this time is a proactive one, it will not fall short of justice and morality.

He, the Lord of Balsam Pear Ridge, Forio, colluded with Viscount Baihua and attempted to seize my property. If I don't destroy him, it will be unforgivable!

Baron Victor, the lord of Orange Town, killed my father, and my hatred for him is irreconcilable! You all go ahead and do it, don't worry about any obstruction. Now I announce that before winter, our army will be expanded to 20,000 people. ".

Zhuge Duan looked at Xu Kuang in shock and asked:

"But 20,000 people...has exceeded the limit stipulated by the kingdom."

Xu Kuang nodded and said to Zhuge:

"So there are 10,000 people from the tax bureau, tax police responsible for collecting taxes."

Everyone:...

Zhang Damiao complained softly:

"Have the tax collectors violated the law of heaven? They have to use 10,000 people to collect taxes..."

Everyone heard Zhang Damiao's muttering, including Xu Kuang.

Xu Kuang pointed at Zhang Damiao and said to him:

"Since you have an opinion, you should be the chief of the tax police."

Zhang Damiao looked at Xu Kuang in astonishment. He didn't understand why Xu Kuang let him be this officer.

Xu Kuang did not explain, but continued:

"Everyone remember one thing, that is, we have now entered a state of war. Don't think that we can negotiate peace with our opponents. This is impossible, do you understand?"

Everyone stood up in unison and said to Xu Kuang:

"clear!".

"The meeting is dismissed!".

Several military chiefs stayed, and they needed to discuss increasing funding with Xu Kuang.

Finally, Xu Kuang waved his hand and threw in another 600,000 gold coins.

Zhuge Duan took a deep breath and sighed:

"Lord, I have been here for more than three months, and this place changes almost every day."

Xu Kuang smiled and said:

"Really? I just hate that it doesn't get fast enough and isn't strong enough!".

Zhuge Duan immediately heard Xu Kuang's displeasure.

he asked:

"My lord, are you still worried about Viscount Baihua?"

Xu Kuang sighed and asked:

"Mr. Zhuge, what do you think of this human kingdom?".

Zhuge Duan thought for a long time and said:

"Sucks.".

Xu Kuang didn't ask why it was so bad. He knew that Zhuge Duan would answer:

"The country is in decline, the king is fatuous, in the temples there are rotten trees as officials, in the city there are foxes and rats, and flies and dogs live in the jungle. The people starve to death thousands of miles away in the wine ponds and meat forests, and they change their sons to eat. The lives are ruined, and the people are in dire straits. This country is rotten to the core." .

Xu Kuang sighed. Although he knew that these things were true, speaking them out of Mr. Zhuge's mouth really had a different flavor.

Zhuge Duan put away his emotions and asked quite professionally:

"Why are you asking me these questions, my lord?".

Xu Kuang smiled and said:

"I just saw the more than 6 million yuan in funds we made a fortune and thought about the system of this kingdom. To be honest, I am also a vested interest, but I don't want to be like this."

Zhuge Duan asked:

"Then what is the Lord's intention?".

Xu Kuang sighed and said to Zhuge:

"My plan is divided into three steps. The first step is to overthrow the king, smash the aristocracy and re-establish political power; the second step is to let the people live and work in peace and contentment; the third step is to make everyone equal."

When Xu Kuang said the words "everyone is equal", Zhuge Duan's eyes suddenly lit up.

Zhuge Duan thought for a moment and asked:

"Master, how long do you think it will take to complete this matter?".

Xu Kuang sighed and said to Xu Kuang:

"I don't know, and it may never be completed. This is a magical world after all. I don't know if I can see this scene in my lifetime. But I know that as long as I live, I will keep doing it."

Zhuge Duan plopped, knelt down on the ground, and said to Xu Kuang:

"My lord is so righteous! From now on, Duan is willing to sacrifice his whole life to my lord and join in the righteous deeds!".

Xu Kuang quickly helped Zhuge Duan up and said to Zhuge Duan:

“What if we might be doing something wrong?”.

Zhuge Duan said:

"I will die without regrets!".

Xu Kuang was also infected. He held Zhuge Duan's hand tightly and said to Zhuge Duan:

"I will die without regrets!".

Xu Kuang took a deep breath and said to Zhuge Duan:

"Let's continue to think about Moguling's next development strategy!"

Zhuge Duan also restrained his excitement and said to Xu Kuang:

"I see!".

Xu Kuang nodded and said to Zhuge Duan:

"Sir, if we obtain the oil field, there will be no need for the existence of Xiangcheng Town. By then, all the people in Xiangcheng Town can move to Balsam Ling, which will just fill the staff vacancies in Balsam Ling."

Zhuge Duan nodded and said to Xu Kuang:

"I understand that two city walls, high and low, need to be built near the oil field. The inner city is higher and the outer city is lower. The inner city is where all the oil production equipment is, and the outer city is where the oil production personnel live. How about it?"

Xu Kuang nodded and said to Zhuge Duan:

"Sir, this is a great plan! I am also planning to build a road to connect the three places. What do you think?"

Zhuge Duan said:

"Very good!".

Xu Kuang nodded and discussed other things with Zhuge Duan.

…

It rained continuously for two months, and the water in some places in Mushroom Ridge even reached the chest of an adult. Xu Kuang calculated that Pearl Lake could even pass a ship of more than 10,000 tons. Of course, there seems to be no such big ship in this world. Boat.

Ren was laughing like crazy. His dock has been doing very well recently, and he can earn several thousand gold coins every month. Although it is not comparable to Xu Kuang's business, he is already very satisfied. All the funds he has paid to Xu Kuang have been compensated. I made up for it and made a lot of money.

Renn also knew that the chiming bell was created by Xu Kuang, but he no longer cared. He was going to save money and get the most fashionable mithril chiming clock. In Renn's view, life was promising.

In the past few months, Count Moriel sent people to transport tens of thousands of tons of iron ore, hundreds of thousands of tons of wood, and tens of thousands of tons of grain from the Pearl River. Xu Kuang purchased them all at high prices and spent millions. gold.

Although Moriel thought about cutting off contact, money was really good. Seeing that the people in the territory had enough to eat because of selling things, Moriel couldn't cut off contact with Xu Kuang, so she could only Turning a blind eye to Xu Kuang's illegal conscription.

In the past two months, Xu Kuang's army has expanded to more than 15,000 people, which is already the combined strength of several surrounding lords.

Adhering to the concept of tactics first, the quality of soldiers as a supplement, and firepower output as a supplement, he began to radically transform the army.

Now Xu Kuang's fifteen thousand people have more than fifty M1 heavy machine guns, more than one hundred mg42 general machine guns, and each team is equipped with an AK47. If the production capacity could not keep up, Xu Kuang could even do better.

In addition to having fewer artillery pieces, Xu Kuang's firepower can already defeat these ordinary armies.

Xu Kuang took a deep breath. In the past few days, he has been sending people to infiltrate Balsamic Ridge. His main purpose now is to find out the strategic deployment of Balsam Ridge. He is ready to attack Balsam Ridge at any time.

Xu Kuang sighed and looked at the Balsam Pear Ridge below. He knew that he would do something big in the next six months.

Xu Kuang took a deep breath, feeling a little complicated.

After a long time, Xu Kuang came to his senses. He came to this world less than a year ago, and now he was already in a very high position. He didn't know the meaning of simply being a noble, so he wanted to fight hard. Do something meaningful with your life.

Xu Kuang sighed, returned to his seat, and continued to work.

One day later, Xu Kuang received news from the scouts that Balsamic Melon Ridge was also frantically recruiting troops, offering much more favorable terms than before.

Xu Kuang couldn't help but sneer. He knew that Forio couldn't sit still.

Xu Kuang sneered and said to his subordinates:

"Probe again and report again. Remember, you must not let the other party find you. Do you understand?"

The subordinate nodded and left here directly.

Xu Kuang took a deep breath and felt a little excited. Taking down Balsamic Melon Ridge would be equivalent to taking down Orange Town. Otherwise, even if he took over Orange Town, he would not be able to manage it with confidence, and he would not Know who to put in charge.

Xu Kuang breathed a sigh of relief. He wanted to talk to Zhuge about old times.

But Zhuge Duan was also very busy.
