As Ren Baqian was tidying up his room, his phone rang.
He picked it up and saw that it was his father.
"Please don't create any more trouble." Ren Baqian was reluctant, but he still answered the call.
"I hope I'm not disturbing you?" Papa Ren asked with a smile.
"What's the matter? Say it," Ren Baqian said weakly.
"Bring your girlfriend home for a meal. Your mother and I want to see her."
"You are thinking too much. She's my business partner, not my girlfriend, "Ren Baqian denied flatly.
"If that's the case, I'm afraid your mother will have to make arrangements for you again. Do as you see fit."
Ren Baqian was furious. He was afraid that he wouldn't die fast enough. "If my mother makes arrangements again, I will bring a boyfriend home."
After finishing his sentence, he hung up the phone and switched it off.
"What did he say?" Mama Ren asked from the sofa.
"He said he wants to find a boyfriend." Papa Ren's face turned green.
…
Ren Baqian tidied up the house in a mess. When he went downstairs, he saw the empress eating the ice cream. There were already three ice cream packages on the coffee table.
"Your Majesty, this is too cold. It will hurt your stomach if you eat too much of it," Ren Baqian couldn't help but say. The first thing the empress learned to do after coming to Earth was to open the fridge to take ice cream.
"I want the ice cream from the one just now." The empress finished the last bit of ice cream and put the ice cream stick on the coffee table. Then, she pointed to the television and said.
The one on the television was Pearl Harbor. Other than airplanes, there were only warships.
"Your Majesty, I will do my best, but this will take time. After all, modern technology is a very sophisticated system. The object that you saw is made up of countless small parts. We have to lay a good foundation and only when Dayao's technology reaches a certain level can we achieve this. Just like practicing martial arts, we can't immediately reach the Earth Wheel level without even getting started, "Ren Baqian said helplessly.
The empress nodded her head in agreement.
"What kind of weapon can destroy a city from a thousand miles away?" the empress asked curiously. The empress had seen those things on the television just now. Unless it was an expert like her, ordinary aboriginals would find it hard to defend against it.
The main reason was that it was too densely packed and many experts couldn't avoid it.
This gave her some respect for Earth's technology.
Although it could be seen from the television that the people here were all very weak, the destructive power of those machines was very strong.
Ren Baqian searched for the video of the atomic bomb explosion and played it.
The screen was black and white. At the beginning, it was a group of people talking about something. At the same time, there was an epic background music playing. It was easy to get people excited.
At this moment, the empress looked very relaxed and commented, "This music is not bad, I like it very much."
"If Your Majesty likes it, I can prepare some for you. You can listen to it to pass the time," Ren Baqian immediately said.
While Ren Baqian was speaking, a scene immediately appeared in his mind. In the future, when the empress was dueling with someone, he would play the "Divine Sword-Drawing Song" with a stereo system. That scene was simply too beautiful.
The scene on the TV continued. With a "BOOM" sound, a huge cloud of dust rose into the sky from the ground in the distance, forming a huge mushroom cloud.
After that, he swooped down from the sky again. In the distance, flames and smoke formed a mushroom cloud that soared into the sky, and the entire ground shook.
Upon seeing this, the empress's expression turned serious, and her body straightened up.
Even an expert like her wouldn't be able to achieve such power.
In particular, the range was extremely large. If she was close, she wouldn't be able to dodge it at all.
This kind of power already existed in legends.
"The explosion range of such a weapon can probably envelop the entire Lan City. On Earth, there are more than 40,000 warheads of such a weapon, enough to destroy a world." Ren Baqian looked at the empress's expression and added in a timely manner.
"However, you said that the use of such weapons has already been banned." After hearing Ren Baqian's words, the empress relaxed and slowly leaned back on the sofa. Even though her expression was still very grave, her eyes were emitting light.
"I want this." The empress looked at Ren Baqian with glowing eyes and said earnestly. At this moment, her expression was like that of a little girl who saw her beloved toy. "Great Xia is making preparations and will definitely make a move within two years. If we have this kind of weapon, we can eliminate the Great Xia army in one fell swoop and march straight into the capital of Great Xia."
Ren Baqian almost vomited blood again.
"Your Majesty, this thing is only in the hands of each nation. I can't buy it." Ren Baqian's face turned black.
"I can exchange for it. As long as Dayao has it, I can exchange for martial arts, secret manuals and other things, "the empress insisted.
"Your Majesty, it's better not to consider this kind of weapon for the time being. Even if we can really obtain it, I may not be able to bring it over. If it's other weapons, there might still be some hope. Dayao can even think of ways to manufacture some, such as grenades and mines. However, it's not easy. We need iron ores, smelting, precision processing, and gunpowder.
I feel that iron ores and standardized weapons are the more pressing issues at hand, "Ren Baqian said to the empress. At the same time, he was pondering over what the empress said about Great Xia definitely making a move within two years. In addition, the empress previously asked him about iron ores and forging weapons. It seemed like the army didn't have enough equipment.
However, after thinking about it, it was very normal. Dayao's industrial foundation was very poor. They completely relied on their strong individual strength to deter other nations. If there was going to be a war between the two nations, Great Xia was, after all, the strongest nation. Therefore, the empress had no choice but to make more preparations.
The empress was slightly disappointed. However, she knew that what Ren Baqian said was right. She was a little too anxious.
"How many things can you bring back?" the empress asked.
"I haven't tried before. I reckon that I can only bring back things that I can carry."
"After we go back, we will first make iron ores and forge weapons." After hearing what Ren Baqian said, the empress finally gave up. After all, she was very clear about how weak Ren Baqian was. There weren't many things that he could carry. If it's Dayao's standard long sabers, as they are relatively heavy, I reckon that I can only carry about ten of them. It's just a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood. "
However, it was still necessary. She had to go through various channels to obtain the military equipment for 20,000 soldiers. Furthermore, it was hard to say how much she would get in the end.
"I want standard long sabers. Every time you go back, try to bring some back," the empress said.
Ren Baqian nodded. "Your Majesty, I don't have enough funds here. I'm afraid I will need your help."
"Sure, I can allocate a portion of the imperial treasury for you to exchange for money." The empress nodded.
After hearing these words, Ren Baqian felt relieved. The empress probably had a lot of good stuff, right? Furthermore, some things might not have much value in Dayao, but they were still very valuable on Earth.
However, which was better, a standard long saber or a rifle? Ren Baqian felt that the latter was better.
Although the people of Dayao were strong, casualties were inevitable in close combat.
Using a rifle could completely change the way of warfare.
Thinking about the soldiers of Dayao, if they were to carry a rifle, carry a full load of ammunition, and transform into Rambo …
In Ren Baqian's opinion, it would be best to smelt and manufacture standard weapons in Dayao. It would be better to carry weapons and ammunition when he traveled back and forth.
Of course, this was just an idea. After all, the consumption of ammunition was really too fast. Just the amount of ammunition needed for practice was not something that he could afford.
However, thinking about it again, Great Xia's army was lined up and charged forward in a dense battle formation. It seemed that as long as they knew how to fire a gun and load it, it would suffice. In this case, if he only carried ammunition each time, he could carry two boxes of ammunition, which was 60 kilograms and 3,000 rounds. In two years, he could travel 180 times and carry more than 500,000 rounds of ammunition.
Thinking about this, Ren Baqian was shocked.
Wouldn't it be too dangerous to have so many firearms wander to the other world? Furthermore, he was afraid that he would be targeted by others if he carried so much ammunition.
The empress saw that Ren Baqian was deep in thought and didn't interrupt him. She quietly looked at his side profile.
To her, this was the first time since the creation of the world that she quietly waited for someone to think.
