I build nuclear bombs in the giant world

Chapter 43 The calm before the storm

Spring has arrived, and the residents within the walls have survived the winter.

Many people received help from the government and received free potatoes and sweet potatoes. The increase in crop yields was attributed to the new fertilizer formula. In December, Ian and Hanji successfully produced the first batch of fertilizer.

What they made was potassium sulfate fertilizer that was particularly effective on potatoes and sweet potatoes. The government mobilized manpower to find potassium salt ores, and then reacted with sulfuric acid produced from sulfur to prepare granular potassium sulfate fertilizer step by step.

This process was only fully matured in December. Although this kind of fertilizer is harmful to the soil, it greatly increased the yield of potatoes and sweet potatoes in a short period of time. The potatoes and sweet potatoes that grew were all large and could survive the long term. Cold December and January.

The temperature warmed up slightly in February, and the government, as planned, began distributing steel rakes and building waterwheels in all towns in preparation for spring plowing.

Although the land has been reduced, productivity has been greatly improved, and food is no longer a problem.

Once you’ve had your fill, it’s time to think about something else.

On the first day of March, Historia appeared on the streets of the royal capital. As Her Royal Highness, she presided over the first field reclamation of the new year.

Wearing a solid gold crown decorated with jewels and a white dress cut from silk, she sat in an open carriage and waved to the crowds on both sides of the street.

She has become quite accustomed to this kind of scene. In the past few months, she has appeared in front of the public a few days a month.

People in a disaster need an object of worship, and Historia is suitable for this position, both in terms of image and identity.

However, she only has fame and does not have the power of the king. After the new government was established, all policies were promoted in the form of parliament. Ian is also a member of the parliament, but he usually does not appear at the meetings. Hannis Attend for him as his spokesperson.

His existence is a secret, and even within the new government, only a few people know about him.

In fact, he was the one who started building momentum for Histria.

He deliberately arranged for Histria to enter the glass factory and gave her the opportunity to announce the "Glass Greenhouse". Then he naturally spread some news and made Histria an "idol" in the hearts of the people.

He had his own considerations for doing this.

The current government's main voice is in the hands of the garrison corps and the survey corps. Although the high-level nobles of the original government were captured, they did not have the energy to innovate the aristocratic system in a short period of time, so the remaining voice was reduced. Part of the territory was divided between nobles and wealthy merchants.

As for the Central Military Police Corps, it has now been disbanded. All military police have been disrupted and evenly distributed among the Survey Corps and the Garrison Corps.

Although Ian has a place in the new government, the main decisions are actually made by the group represented by Pixis and Erwin. He can only give some suggestions. Whether to adopt them or not depends on where they are. Accept or not.

There was no way. When he joined the Survey Corps, it was equivalent to joining the team alone. His assets were only the knowledge he learned from Asuka. He was not a member of the Corps and did not have his own soldiers or weapons. Most of the others were just Treat him like a prodigy.

This is not what he wants. What he hopes is an extremely centralized government. This government must be centered on him and be able to quickly implement his orders. Otherwise, it will not work.

For example, if Ian wants to build a power station now, he needs to go through many processes. First, he has to draw drawings, build a small model, and show it to Hanji. After Hanji understands the power station After learning about its uses, Hanji would ask the question: "What does electricity do?"

Ian needs to come up with a series of "lights", "wires" and "motors" to convince Hanji. After Hanji is convinced, they have to repeat it again and try to get the parliament to pass this plan.

After all, Hanji was an engineer and could understand it faster, but it was very troublesome for officers who could only fight to understand this. They couldn't just build according to the drawings without asking Ian at all. They had to understand it in advance. This plan will be approved based on data such as the "power station's" consumables, costs, functions, possible income after completion, etc.

After it is passed, it is not implemented immediately. Most of the government's fiscal revenue currently comes from taxation, and a considerable part of it is funded by wealthy businessmen and nobles within the Wall of Rosey. If you want to spend money, you have to ask these people.

Layer by layer, if Ian wants to build a "power station", it may take two or three months from the drawing to the official start of construction. He may not even be able to tell those people at all, because they cannot understand what is "electricity".

This is the difficulty that Ian is currently facing. His power is not big enough, far from it.

It is difficult for others to understand him. Those people do not know what Parady Island will face in the future, and it is not just a mere giant.

They have never seen the scenery of "modern society". When you talk about airplanes, submarines, and rockets to an ancient person, they will just think you are talking nonsense.

Glass greenhouses were still within the scope of these people's understanding, so the plan was quickly passed and construction was promoted. However, if you want to build a "power station", it will be even more difficult.

To do this, Ian must seize power and gain more and greater power.

He needs a government that will carry out his orders.

That government should be like this. When it takes out the drawings of the power station in the morning, workers should start construction in the afternoon, and a brand new power station should be built the next day.

Efficiency, efficiency, efficiency!

He does not need a procrastinating and pushy government. His decisions cannot be questioned. When he proposes them, they must be implemented immediately!

For this reason, he quietly promoted Historia's reputation.

Because Historia is on the same side as him, someone who is on his side.

Historia is someone who can understand him and is willing to build a "power station" for him.

On the street, Historia smiled and waved to the people, who cheered for her and called her name.

To Ian, she was like "Princess Diana", deeply loved by the people of the capital and all those who received subsidies during the winter.

This is exactly what Ian wants to see. From August to March of the following year, half a year has passed. He quietly promoted all this and let it ferment slowly.

At almost noon, Historia finished her tour and returned to her house.

She had a private residence in the royal capital, which was the former false emperor's residence. It was quite luxurious and luxurious.

Ian was waiting for her in the dining room. After Histria entered the door, she took off the heavy crown, let out a sigh of relief, and kept smiling at everyone. It was not an easy task.

Maintaining a smile for a long time made her facial muscles a little stiff, but she still couldn't help but smile after seeing Ian.

She quickly ran to Ian's side: "Ian, aren't you going to work today?"

"Yeah." Ian touched her head: "I'm on vacation today."

In addition to Ian, there were several people, Eren, Armin and Mikasa, sitting on their seats, waiting to eat.
