Outworld: Rise of an Industrial Empire

Murong Shixing continued to say to him

, "According to the working method of the Federation, we have excavated a depth of 28 meters..... There were also three large steam engines and a large number of machines..... It's all available!

" At this time, Huang Qi was already stunned in place, and Murong Shixing took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to him and continued:

"Also, these are some sales orders, and the goods are already on the way to the buyer, but the final payment.... It's not over yet.... Hey, hey, hey...."

Huang Qi's eyes widened, just the balance of these orders added up to the income of his family's industry for more than ten years!

He stared and was stunned for a moment, and then grinned at Murong Shixing and said

, "Holy Lord Goddess, no wonder everyone below ridicules that this Jinggui is a poor beggar....... What is the ...... It seems that what he said is really right!" Huang

Qi swallowed as he looked at the title deed and manifest in his hand, and his hands trembled a little.

His grandfather, father, and himself have been cabinet ministers in the imperial court for a total of three generations, and in fact, they have received gifts and bribes from countless people, and have also received countless large and small rewards from the emperor, but the property accumulated after a hundred years of hard work is not as good as the title deeds and assets that Murong Shixing easily took out.

This is not people's greed, this is people's fairness....... At least not against the law...... Belch...... The Xuanwu Murong family's way of accumulating wealth is indeed a bit unruly.

But for example, the Li family and other families, including the Li family, can really easily make so much money without violating any laws, no, it should be more, because the unruly Murong family is actually only the bottom of the four major families, whether it is size or heritage, it is far less than the other three major families.

For a while, Huang Qi was very unhappy in his heart, and looked at the things in his hand and pondered.

Thinking of being a cabinet minister in the imperial court, his status is not small, and the power in his hands is not small, but the countless orders issued over the years are not as precious as the order to mobilize an army of 1,000 people to suppress the riots of those untouchables at this moment!

Thinking of this, Huang Qi immediately put away these land deeds and said to Murong Shixing with a smile

"Ah...... Lord Murong, it is a blessing for the empire that you think about the empire....... The empire has an official like you, why not prosper!Lord Murong doesn't need to worry, I will give an order to let the city guards cooperate with your work!"

Hearing this, Murong Shixing was also quite excited, he was not only excited about suppressing the mob, he was excited to be able to establish a relationship with Huang Qi, and all the remaining rights of the empire in Huang Qi's hands could be used by him in the future! Just when Huang Qi had just reached a cooperation with Murong Shixing,

a blockbuster news spread throughout the major families in Xuanwu Capital.

The sound of horses' hooves suddenly roared in the streets, and spies were sent from both noble families to commoners and wealthy merchants.

...

Xuanwu Capital, Li Fu

"Dad, the news is accurate, it is that Murong Shixing sent the city governor guards to the pit to investigate, and it turned out that the pit had gathered a large number of beggars, which led to their riot

!" A young man said to a middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man touched the beard on his chin and laughed:

"Haha, he is asking for his own hardship!"

The young man continued

"Father, I have already sent someone to inform the fourth child, and asked him to send a team to protect our main industry, and then send someone to the mine pit in the western suburbs to explain, so that they can take care of the miners, so that the mob should not have much impact on us!"

"Hmm..."The

middle-aged man touched his beard and nodded, showing a positive attitude towards the young man's approach.

At this moment, a domestic servant walked

in and handed the young man a letter and said, "Master, eldest young master, this is a letter from the Chengwei Battalion!" The young

man took the envelope and opened it, and after reading it, he hurriedly said to the middle-aged man:

"Dad, the fourth said that this Huang Guogong gave an order to the guards of the Xuanwu Capital, asking him to send troops to clean a mine pit in the eastern suburbs...... Moreover, this order was given before the news of a riot by the mob came! The surnamed Luo received the order to send a team to suppress it early.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's face sank, and he frowned and said,

"Hiss..... This Murong Shixing had already colluded with them!

" Then he leaned back in his chair and snorted lightly:

"Hmph, he escaped!"

Several maids in Murong Fu's mansion

were giving Wang Yaxuan medicine, and the scars looked so abrupt on the white skin, and two new scars were added last night, and one of the previous scars was already blue to black!

Suddenly, there was a noise outside the courtyard, and Wang Yaxuan, who had just finished taking the medicine, put on her clothes and walked out of the door with a puzzled face, only to see more than a dozen strong men walking in with steel knives in their hands.

Wang Yaxuan was startled, and hurriedly asked Murong Fu, who was walking with him, "What's wrong?" Murong Fu hurriedly stepped forward, stroked Wang Yaxuan's forehead and said softly:

"It's

okay, I got the news earlier,

saying that there was a mob riot in the eastern suburbs, and I was about to take you to Murong Manor for refuge, but I just got the news that the city guards have gone to suppress it." But I'm still... I was a little worried, so I called some thugs over!"

Hearing Murong Fu's words, Wang Yaxuan breathed a sigh of relief.

...

In the evening, in a textile

factory, the

picture is for reference onlyIn

the hot factory, the transmission shaft drives the gear belt on the machine to rotate rapidly, making a sizzling noise.

The sound was not particularly loud, but the sound of a dozen machines was incessant, and the tortured workers were miserable.

The speed of the machine is also very fast, and the workers can only operate the movements of the machine quickly and repeatedly, which makes the workers even more uncomfortable.

But none of these workers dared to complain, because such a work was not easy to come by!

In the boiler room, the scorching flames were burning, but for the workers, there was no light in sight.

The two workers in the boiler room struggled to add coal to the boiler, and the boss was very clever and calculated well, and they threw the coal into it at a rate about the speed of the boiler burning, so that the labor of the workers could be used to the extreme. And if the boiler burns fast, they have to work harder.

They were even more desperate than the workers on the assembly line outside, because the stuffy, suffocating heat filled the entire boiler room, and they couldn't even breathe, but they still had to keep adding coal to the boiler.

When the bell rang, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, and one of the workers numbly dropped the shovel in his hand and walked out expressionlessly.

The workers in front of the machine heard the sound of the overseer's rattle, and many people breathed a sigh of relief, because it was the sound of the boiler room being shut down, which meant that their work was soon over.

Many more are numb, tired from a long day's work, and they just want to get a good night's sleep.

After a few moments, the steam engine slowed down, and with the sound of a valve blowing, the machine outside the door also stopped.

The workers also stopped what they were doing, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that when people look at the not-so-dark sky outside the door, they have some doubts: Today, work was stopped before it was dark!

At the gate of the factory, a stall has been set up, and several large baskets of grain are placed on the stall.

The people who distributed the food at the stall began to signal them to line up, but they didn't care so much, they took out a bag one after another, and waited to go back to sleep after receiving their wages.

Suddenly, the people in front let out an exclamation, and excitement swept through the team as the overseer brought them the food.
