Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 1170 This city is named Xinghuo Province

"These big birds?"

Looking at the busy Chu Chen, Mu Qiu asked the question that had been on her mind for a long time.

"Call an airplane."

"A flying chicken? A chicken that can fly in the sky? But it doesn't look like a chicken at all."

Helpless, Chu Chen pulled Mu Qiu into the helicopter and explained it to him. Mu Qiu nodded as if he understood but not quite.

"Hehe, great plane, great plane, hahaha, this is a plane that those so-called cannibals can never shoot down."

Chu Chen rolled his eyes at him; he didn't know whether they would fight or not.

But I am determined not to fight.

"Alright, as the lord of a city, you shouldn't be chatting with me here right now. Instead, you should be taking stock of the wounded and doing a good job in subsequent defense and cleanup."

"Don't worry, there's dry land... wait, where's the dry land?"

Just as Mu Qiu was about to say that Gan Di was there and she didn't need to worry about these things, she discovered that Gan Di had disappeared sometime earlier.

After looking around, he realized that the man was holding his elder brother Gan Tian in one arm and a woman in the other, both of them crying their eyes out.

Chu Chen and Mu Qiu watched quietly; at that moment, his monk's robe seemed particularly glaring.

"Let them rest, and you can work hard yourself."

"We've all survived this ordeal."

After saying that, Chu Chen stopped bothering Mu Qiu and led Lu Jiayi onto the main street of the city. Looking at everything around them, his eyes were full of joy.

Although this time, the city was almost breached by cannibals.

But in the end, they still managed to win back the city, and they were fully confident that they could use it as a center to expand outwards and soon be able to rule ten or a hundred such cities.

Three days later, Chu Chen sat in the city lord's mansion that Mu Qiu had temporarily set up.

Beside him were Mu Qiu, Gan Tian Gan Di, and Lu Jiayi.

"Chu Chen, please give me some pointers on what to do next."

Mu Qiu looked at Chu Chen and said that after this great battle, he was thinking of quitting.

"You are the city lord, what do you want me to point out?"

"What the hell do you mean? I've already suffered enough, and you still want me to keep working?"

Chu Chen knew perfectly well that Mu Qiu was now considering retreating.

That's true. Building a world like the Milky Way Realm is just Chu Chen's task. Mu Qiu and the others are just assisting. To put it bluntly, they can do it if they want to, and not do it if they don't want to.

"Late Autumn, we've been through that wretched world, crossed the Black Forest, and fought those two. After all this time together, in my heart, you're already my brother."

"So, as long as there are still threats in this world, you have to help me no matter what."

Chu Chen suddenly changed his usual frivolous manner and looked at Mu Qiu with a serious expression.

Mu Qiu looked on incredulously after hearing this; this was not the Chu Chen he knew: "Your soul has been stolen?"

"You're the one whose soul has been stolen."

Chu Chen rolled his eyes at him, thinking to himself, "I'm just trying to brainwash you, and you're still not used to it."

"Let's get down to business. Look at the people of your city. They worship you like a god. Can you bear to abandon them?"

"And don't think I don't know, how can you bear to abandon your dozen or so wives?"

After listening, Mu Qiu fell into deep thought. Indeed, what Chu Chen said was the reason why he didn't run away when the city was breached.

If he had wanted to run, given his skills, he could have easily taken those dozen or so androids, driven an infantry fighting vehicle, and charged out.

He wasn't without a backup plan; a fully fueled infantry fighting vehicle was still parked inside his city lord's mansion.

"I understand what you mean, and congratulations on getting my weakness out of you."

"But there's one thing: if you don't agree, I'll run away even if it means offending the whole world."

Chu Chen was overjoyed to hear this; the guy had finally stabilized.

"Tell me your conditions."

"Supplies, weapons and ammunition must be guaranteed, otherwise this project cannot be carried out."

"That's no problem. And although I won't give you the finished product, I will stay here for a while and teach you how to make it."

manufacture?

Upon hearing Chu Chen's words, Mu Qiu was overjoyed, thinking that this guy was finally going to bring out his trump card.

Actually, this wasn't exactly one of Chu Chen's most prized possessions.

After inspecting the city, he began planning, with energy and gunpowder being the most important resources.

Oil extraction, electricity, black powder, or nitrocellulose are things they urgently need to produce.

Unlike Fu'an, there are no natural barriers here. The cannibals won't give you much time to develop slowly. So, the first thing they need to do is figure out how to defend against external enemies.

Immediately, Chu Chen held a meeting with several people to plan for the future.

Their discussion lasted until late into the night before they finally went to sleep, and in the process, they gave the city a resounding name: "Spark Province."

Chu Chen didn't explain much about the administrative planning to them, only telling them that the place he came from was called Fu'an Province.

A province is a code name for a city or a region.

The next morning, Chu Chen and Mu Qiu got up early, and then Mu Qiu called a small team. Under their arrangement, two android engineers behind Chu Chen went into the mountains to search for oil.

Another team, led by other android engineers, went to survey the river and terrain in preparation for building a power plant.

After countless teams were dispatched, Chu Chen and Mu Qiu led a small team, following Mu Qiu's footsteps, and entered the City Lord's Mansion, which should now be called the Provincial Government's back mountain cave.

"You mean, build the arsenal inside a cave?"

After Chu Chen finished looking at the cave, he asked Mu Qiu a question.

"That's right. This place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it's extremely well hidden. Our weapons are our biggest secret, and we absolutely cannot let anyone leak them out."

Chu Chen nodded after listening. If the danger was disregarded, this was indeed the best choice.

Considering that now is the time to conquer the world, Chu Chen thought about it for a moment and then agreed to Mu Qiu's idea.

A month later, several blast furnaces were erected; they were used to smelt copper ore and various types of steel.

Inside the cave, countless raw materials such as saltpeter and charcoal were hauled in.

Current limitations mean they can only produce gunpowder, which, while not as powerful as advanced nitrocellulose, is perfectly adequate for dealing with cannibals made of flesh and blood.

To this end, Chu Chen moved a small arms factory directly from Chu Tianjing, which also used the assembly line production method.

A small number of people were allowed to learn and master the manufacturing skills, and those selected were all loyal individuals, and their management was quite strict.

Chu Chen had experience with this kind of thing, and Mu Qiu also knew the stakes involved, so they attached great importance to this aspect.

Six months later, Chu Chen and Mu Qiu were drinking tea in the courtyard of the city lord's mansion. On the table were a pile of various bullets.
