Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 524 Trade and Proximity

It was unexpectedly calm last night. When the Jialan Meteorological Station issued a heavy rain warning, Huangjiang was quite worried.Although the war in the waters of Wutou Island has come to an end, it is still not over after all. The sudden heavy rain will inevitably cause a lot of trouble to the girls at home.

Fortunately, the storm seemed to be a bit slow, and I couldn't catch a glimpse of her beauty until the first ray of sunshine in the morning fell on the windowsill.

There is no news from Wutou Island yet, but Huang Jiang estimates that the war is over. With the night fighting capabilities of the battle patrol and the heavy patrol formation, I am afraid that "Mola" and his own bodyguards will not be able to stand in front of them. I dare say I escaped with my whole body intact.

The gains from this battle are very obvious, which can be seen from the rising military merits of Huangjiang River. After the exchange, the number of crystals is enough to summon more ship girls.

Of course, Huangjiang is not in a hurry to call, but it probably won't take too long, because the dark clouds of war are gradually approaching on Lanbin Island.Although until now, he has not received any information related to the West Wind Drifting Mirage, he is very convinced that all the ship girls are convinced that in the future, there will be a crisis in that sea area that is directly related to the future of Gloriosa Territory. war.

Compared with this, the battle in the waters of Wutou Island is like a concerto that is not melodious. It came a little suddenly, but disappeared without any surprise.

Huang Jiang withdrew his gaze, stretched, and finally got up from the bed.

Lexington woke up early as usual, and Huang Jiang wasn't surprised.

Under the window sill is a nanmu desk. It is not very big, but it is filled with various information and documents.Sometimes when Huang Jiang wanted to share some work with his wife, he would process a few documents on this table facing the moonlight outside the window.

Today's Jialanling has a high degree of autonomy in government affairs. Most of the affairs do not need to be handled by Huang Jiang and his secretary ship in person. The affairs of individual islands do not even require his signature, and only need to submit a copy every month. Just report it.As the territory continues to expand, it is expected that monthly reports will become quarterly or half-yearly.

Lexington also took some time off, and finally had the time to be with Huang Jiang.

But the two of them finally knew not to go too far. After all, the ones stationed on Violet Island were Z-drivers, and the destroyers were still children after all.

Lexington walked into the room with breakfast.

Today’s breakfast is Xiao Long Baozi.

It's piping hot, with a small dish of aged vinegar next to it.

Huang Jiang wanted to grab one, but his wife gently patted his hands.

"Go wash up." Lexington rolled his eyes at Huang Jiang.

Huang Jiang could only obey his fate.

By the time I finished washing, the morning sun had almost dissipated, and the Violet Pier was already crowded with people.A merchant ship from Malan Island slowly sailed into the harbor.

This merchant ship named Jenny comes from the Wonderful Shrimp Chamber of Commerce. It is a brand new merchant ship, and the paint on the surface still seems to have the smell of new life.

The Jenny is the first batch of civilian ships built by the Malan Island Shipyard. The technology used was improved on the technology obtained during the exchange of ship technology with Carnation Leader, so the form is inevitably somewhat similar to that produced by Carnation Leader. Civilian merchant ship.

After eating Xiao Long Bao for breakfast, Huang Jiang took Lexington to the dock to witness the official commercial use of the first batch of merchant ships at the Malan Island Shipyard.A total of five cargo ships were built in the first batch, four of which were used to transport raw materials between various islands in Gloria. The only exception was the Jenny in front of them.

The Wonderful Shrimp Chamber of Commerce was originally engaged in the seafood business, but their boss, the retired deacon named Dan, obviously did not want to stick to this, so the Jenny's warehouse was not only loaded with delicious shrimps from the Violet Sea, but also A batch of cars produced on Violet Island were obtained.

Jialan Automobile is regarded as a top luxury car in the federation, but this batch of cars is not Jialan Automobile, but Violet Automobile under the same name as Huang Jiang. , all accessories are extremely standardized, and all the parts can be collected on several nearby islands. Most of the parts are produced on Violet Island, and a small part of the factory is located not far away on Malan Island. The sheet metal materials used come from the sheet metal factory supplied by Jialan Steel Group.

In order to save costs, Violet Auto does not use natural rubber tires, which are the most widely used in automobiles today. Instead, it uses artificial rubber produced by Jialan Materials Group on Iliao Island.

It is cheaper, and its performance is not much worse than that of natural rubber.With the continuous advancement of industrialization, a group of wealthy middle class has been born throughout the federation. They cannot spend huge sums of money like the upper-class nobles or big businessmen, but they have been able to use their spare money to decorate their own houses.In the past, cars were toys belonging to high-level people. Although cars began to spread rapidly under the promotion of Huang Jiang and Rockefeller, cars for all people have not yet truly become cars.

The positioning of Violet Cars is for those not-so-rich families who want to have their own means of transportation, but are deterred by the high price. They need a means of transportation, and the not-so-wealthy family makes it so They don't care about most of the luxurious parts that have been removed from the Violet car due to cost savings, and the safety of artificial rubber is still unknown.

"Where is this ship going?" Huang Jiang took the battle report from Lexington.

This battle report comes from the Wutou Island Government Affairs Office.Although Huang Jiang had learned about the result of the battle through Eugen an hour ago, he still couldn't help but feel a little excited when he saw this battle report.

The result of the war was very satisfactory. The two fleets of Hood and Tirpitz annihilated all the support troops from Edelweiss Island and the "Mudskipper" troops that were originally besieged. This also shows that in the next period of time, , Edelweiss Island will lose the ability to cause trouble behind its back, and Huangjiang can gather all its attention to accept the Violet Sea as its own inland sea.

"We are one step away from success." Huang Jiang said with a smile.

"We still need to prepare, we can't take it lightly." Lexington was very cautious.

At this time, the Violet Government officials who were sent out to inquire ran back.

"He's going to Sunflower Collar." After hearing this, Lexington turned to Huang Jiang and said.

The Yellow River opens to the sea in the distance, and the towering chimneys of the power station on Iris Island are looming.

"In other words, we will pass through the tulip collar." He said calmly.

"Yes," Lexington replied calmly.

"Our Governor Milton has not been very safe recently." Huang Jiang smiled wryly, "Actually, I just want to develop in a safe and stable way."

"After all, there is a fundamental conflict of interest." Lexington was referring to Cycad Island.

Today's Cycad Island is still firmly in Milton's hands in terms of military affairs, but after years of hard work by Jialan Iron and Steel Group, Milton has lost its influence on the above minerals.

And under the circumstances of the destroyer escort sent by the Huangjiang River, the actual control of Cycad Island by Jialan has almost become a reality.

Huang Jiang estimated that Milton's attack would come soon.

"Wish it good luck." Huang Jiang sighed. After all, Milton is the governor and he is just the consul. The two of them are still nominally superiors and subordinates. As long as Milton doesn't do anything particularly outrageous to cause public outrage, Huang Jiang is morally responsible. Naturally, you are at a disadvantage.

It can be said that unless Milton takes action first, Huang Jiang has no reason to take some preventive measures.

For the past few weeks, Huang Jiang has been worried that Tulip Society will suddenly arrest Jialan's boat.

After all, this method is the most practical and effective.

Don't set up a FLAG.

Huang Jiang patted his forehead.
