Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 18 Rescue and Abandonment

Neither Perfectcott nor Princess Anne had the procrastinating temperament.

So the next day, after the eldest princess woke up, she and Purficott took her steam carriage into the city. Purficott also specially brought her airship model.

As for the war horse she rode last night? The Royal Guards are still following behind, just let any cavalryman hold the reins.

After entering the city, Princess Anne first ordered a guard cavalry to take the horse back to the royal stables in the palace, and then took Perfectcott to Royal Longton University.

They were going to visit some professors in the Alchemy Department of Langton University.

Last night, Purficott and Princess Anne discussed carefully and decided to start by building momentum and issuing a commission to develop cold-resistant materials to the professors of the Alchemy Department of Langton University.

"Little Purficott, I remember that your airship was ordered at the Royal Dockyard yesterday, didn't it? It doesn't need to be made of cold-resistant materials, doesn't it matter?" Princess Anne looked at the airship that Purphycott carried with him. Model asked with concern.

Regarding this issue, Purficott pointed to the model and said: "I considered this when designing, so I designed a heat insulation layer on the outer layer of the airship."

Speaking of which, Purficott also deliberately opened one side of the model so that Princess Anne could see the internal structure of the airship.

Purficott removed a bulkhead from the outer wall of the airship, held it in his hand and said to Princess Anne: "What I ordered from the Royal Dockyard is only a part of the parts. As for the other parts, I can actually make it myself.

But now that I have the support of Her Majesty the Queen, I no longer need to do some things myself, and I can free up my hands to do more important things. "

Hearing what Purphycott said, Princess Anne suddenly remembered that Purphycott was the youngest talented alchemist in Langton, and developing a cold-resistant material was indeed not a problem for her.

It's just that her age and female status, which are not yet sixteen years old, always make people ignore this.

"Are you going to the New World?" After getting rid of unnecessary thoughts, Princess Anne asked Purficott about her next plan.

"Well, I guess I'll stay there for a while." Purficott nodded slightly. Although her plans have changed now, her schedule has generally remained unchanged: "I need to get some information from the Imperial Exploration Company. Data on the distribution of mineral resources in the New World, so that when I take a boat to the New World, I can use this time to analyze the data to determine where it is suitable to build a shelter.

In this way, I can start working directly when I arrive in the New World, without wasting time on site exploration and site selection. The empire has wasted too much time, I must seize every second. "

Hearing this, Princess Anne was convinced.

If the noble council could have responded correctly when Purficott first warned them, the situation would not be as bad as it is now.

And this also made her feel more and more distressed for Purficott, and she couldn't help but ask with concern: "Do you have any other needs? My mother gave me the power to mobilize the knights of the guard, and I can send them to protect you to the New World.      Although The war to suppress independence in the colonies is going well, but there is a bit of chaos there, and you need someone to protect you."

"I'm not worried about this. I plan to help Grandpa Afu break through the shackles of the Great Knight and advance to the rank of Knight. His combat power is enough to ensure my safety." Purficott tried to decline Princess Anne's kindness, but Halfway through the words, the subject changed again: "But the knights of the imperial guard represent the imperial power, and they may be able to play a role that I didn't expect, so I'd better bring them with me."

In the past, when the emperor of the Victoria Empire would go on personal expeditions, the knights of the imperial guard would also act as the emperor's special envoys, responsible for delivering important military orders. To a certain extent, they were very suitable for acting as a fake and deterring those with ulterior motives.

Purficott was really fed up with those people who were submissive and disobedient. Instead of wasting time arguing with them, it would be better to use the most direct force to deter them.

"In addition, this time I will build the infrastructure of the shelter first, and at the same time, I need to mine some mineral deposits. For related projects and procedures, Auntie Lao Anne will help inform the relevant companies in the colony to prepare in advance." Perfico Specially speaking to Princess Anne.

"No problem. As I said, you can mobilize all the resources of the royal family." Princess Anne emphasized again, but at the same time, she also looked sad and asked Perficot: "Little Perficot Te, do you think we can save the empire?"

Although full of confidence in Purficott, Princess Anne still lacked confidence in this disaster.

After all, according to Purficott's prophecy, this would be a world-destroying disaster. Even if the empire tried its best, it might not be able to save many people.

This made her couldn't help but ask Purfict a soul torture: "How many people can we save? How many people must we give up?"

Princess Anne knew clearly that it was impossible to save everyone.

But she wanted to save more people, especially ordinary poor people who had no chance of survival.

Faced with Princess Anne's inquiry, Purficott's eyes drifted out the window, looking at the ordinary people on the roadside who were working hard to make a living, and said in a somewhat erratic tone: "A shelter can house about three thousand people. to 50,000 people. The number will vary depending on the environment and actual situation, but it is roughly within this range.

The current total population of the empire is approximately more than 20 million, and the total population of overseas colonies is dozens of times that. If you want to save more people, you must build more shelters. "

Having said this, Purficott withdrew his gaze and looked at Princess Anne, with a serious and serious tone: "Just the population of Langton City requires at least twenty shelters to house it, let alone Talking about the entire empire and overseas colonies, this requires massive investment of resources and manpower, and requires the entire empire to devote its full efforts."

Purficott's meaning is obvious. If he wants to save more people, it means investing more resources.

"But now, the Crisis Response Committee specially established by the empire is still entangled for petty profits." Princess Anne's voice was filled with lamentation, but this strengthened her determination: "Little Purficott , you continue to advance according to your plan, and I will try to persuade the Duke of Gloucester to support you! As for those cysticercids...the imperial nobles, it’s time to prune their branches and leaves!"
