Chapter 897： Across the line of time

Since the middle of the summer, everything has been on the right track, and this huge country has gradually developed in accordance with the trajectory set by Gao Wen for it.

In the study room with velvet carpet, the cool cold wind is blowing slowly from the air outlet in the corner of the room. The sunlight before noon is very bright, which makes the quaint book shelves and decorative weapon racks in the study room look brighter than in the past. Many, Gavin sat in the chair where he usually sat and listened to the report, while Hetty stood opposite his desk.

The desk is new and the style is the same as before.

"This is a report on diplomatic and economic activity from the west," Hetty briefly reported the content while putting the collated documents in front of Gao Wen. "Overall, contact with the remaining tribes of Ogure All went well-including the spirit clan who had been unclear before. So far, the gray elves and human tribes that first contacted us have established stable business exchanges with the empire, and agreed to introduce magic nets and railway systems within their sphere of influence. The remaining races agreed to establish commercial channels. As for the magic net and the railway ... they will wait until they see the "effects" in the gray elves and human territories. "

Gao Wen nodded in satisfaction: "The tribe of Ogure is a loose alliance, and they are used to it, and dealing with them can only be done step by step. At least the five kings of the jury have shown a friendly willingness. It ’s the biggest development. Is there news from the dwarf kingdom on the west coast of the mainland? "

"The dwarves are very interested in our machines, and there are gray elves to help us bridge the bridge. Negotiations have been smooth, but the land transportation between us and the dwarves is inconvenient, not only to pass through the entire Ogure tribe, There are also large areas of forests and mountains, so the official launch of trade must at least wait until Beigang is put into use-taking the west coastal route. Prior to this, the dwarves should not purchase our heavy machinery on a large scale due to cost considerations. "

"It shouldn't be too long ... The progress of Beigang is very smooth, and the previously discussed Kraken technical team should reach the North Coast in two days, which can speed up the construction of the ship there," Gao Wen casually Said, "Is there anything else to report?"

"There is one more thing," Hetty nodded. "Ms. Wenna Baizhi, the head of the gray elf's tribe, hopes to further expand the export quota of alchemical raw materials. She seems to plan to create a new economic 'signboard' for the moss forest. The alchemy raw materials held by the elves have become an important economic pillar of the tribe of Ogure. "

"Grey Elf ... I remember that the daughter of Patriarch Wenna is now studying at Imperial College?"

Hetillo recalled and nodded: "Yes, Meli Baizhi-this year's freshman, enrolled in the Magic Department through standard international student procedures, minoring in alchemy and social management."

"Three-series full repair?" Gao Wen couldn't help but raised his eyebrows. "It's a diligent child ... wait, the gray elves of the magic department are freshman? It is impossible that Kamel jumped out of the window when he last lectured. Just ... "

"It's her," Herty seemed to tremble, "Imperial College has begun to strengthen classroom management and the safety guarantee around the teaching facilities ..."

"... The gray elf was the first foreign country to establish a good relationship with the empire, and it was also the force that always maintained good relations with the Moen Dynasty in the Ansu era," after two seconds of silence, Gao Wen bluntly brought the topic back on track. "They are a race that is very good at doing business, with footprints all over the western continent, and the gray elf traders are even called the" continent of the western continent. "We need to deal with such a race-and they are interested in new things, It also helps us to promote new machines and industrial products to the western part of the mainland. We can promise Ms. Wenna's request-but the specific amount needs to be jointly agreed by the economic and industrial sectors. "

"I see," Herty nodded. "After going back, I will organize an internal meeting and reply to the Gray Elves as soon as possible."

Gao Wen made a sound, just wanted to ask something more, but a knock on the door suddenly came from outside the study door.

After getting Gao Wen's response, the door of the study was opened, and an old man with a gentle and calm look and deep eyes came in-Godwin Orlando, who was in charge of the cultural department.

Gao Wen glanced at the old scholar who had devoted himself to Cecil in the earliest years and made great contributions in this country. After noticing the dress of the other party, he raised his eyebrows in surprise: Orlando today is wearing a brand new Black dress and black trousers, a golden bracelet hangs down the pocket on the chest, gray hair is meticulously combed, and wears a pair of book-like gold-framed glasses, which is usually the same as this old scholar. The clothes you are used to are very different.

"Your Majesty," Godwin greeted Gao Wen first, and then saw that Hetty was there, and then nodded and greeted, "Heidi's Archon, Good Day."

"Are you starting to wear new formal clothes too?" Gao Wen asked casually.

"Ah ... yes, it's a try," Godwin was about to report the situation, he couldn't help but stunned when he heard Gao Wen's words, and then looked down at his clothes, a slightly restrained smile on his face, " After all, most young people are now in the government office, and even the elderly are gradually changing their costumes. The old scholar robes are only worn out in ceremonial occasions ... Even last week, Peterman ordered a formal dress, I Try it out too. "

Then the old scholar asked again, "Isn't it strange that I look like this?"

"It's perfect for you," Gao Wen said with a smile. "It seems a lot more energetic-and it's not a bad thing to follow the trend."

"That's good-I don't twist all the way when I wear it out today," the old gentleman moved his neck to the left and right. "Actually, it is very comfortable, but I always have a feeling of being imprisoned by the fabric ... Fortunately, I am adapting now Now. "

As he said, he came to Gao Wen ’s desk and took out a report from his file book and handed it over: "Your Majesty, the" literature preservation "project has made some progress recently, and I have compiled it into a report. . "

The "literature preservation" in his mouth is a large-scale investigation and protection of all kinds of classics, legends, knowledge, history and other file materials launched by Gao Wen in the country. It is an "national cultural relics book and intellectual heritage emergency preservation project." Short for "Godwin Orlando is one of the main leaders of this project.

Gao Wen took over the report and began to glance at the above content, while Godwin added some details:

"We have successfully compiled the noble lineages of the entire western region from the first dynasty to the second dynasty, and have registered and collated according to the nobility list that is still preserved today ...

"... we found some valuable documents in the large library of San Sunil, or they may help us interpret some of the historical truths of the most chaotic period of the second dynasty of Ansu ..."

At the beginning, the old scholar of professional management documents reported such "normal" things, but soon he mentioned the content of technical recovery in the second half of the report, and the details of the report made Gao Wen express his expression. Quirky:

"... Last week, a working group contacted the locals while organizing local files in the Pompeii area, and found an accident in a village. The local villagers took out their 'Protection Scroll' passed down from generation to generation. Sharing the construction technology of the ii type artificial intelligence logic library, Dean Jenny judged that the technology is related to the Gondor Iron Man, or may help us solve the problem of automatic coordination of factory machinery ...

"... The action led by Sir Vip Grant to investigate the collections of noble families around the world has also progressed. A baron from the west has found a drawing of a key structure of the photolithographic wafer etching machine in his cellar-this name The baron ’s ancestor may be one of the rarest Gondor fugitives during the second pioneering period. His descendants coincidentally preserved precious technology, but because only a part of the drawings were saved and the family inheritance was interrupted, the role of these drawings was forgotten. Master Kamel believes that the photolithographic wafer etching technology of the Gondor era can no longer be used in modern times, but some of the runes and mechanical structures on the drawings still have reference significance ...

"... A wandering swordsman from the eastern region shared with us the key technology of the light wave suppressor-he holds a completely failed energy conduit that still has a reference to the internal structure. For hundreds of years he and his The family has been using this energy conduit to knock on walnuts, completely unaware that it is the legacy of the Gondor era. Master Kamel believes that this conduit may help us solve the heat dissipation problem of the rainbow light generator.

"In addition, the wandering swordsman who has contributed has been awarded. In view of the hidden dangers of illegal possession of weapons and the tightening of the registration system for the transcendence, this swordsman is currently receiving education and training from the local security forces, and he is willing to become A local sheriff, similar to the "collection" situation, has recently become more and more in the east. Due to the gradual stability of the social order and the continuous implementation of the new system, the original "wild" transcendents are now in batches. The ground is included. "

Godwin Orlando meticulously reported key content, even though his original major was paperwork, and even if he was old, he still retells the contents of these technical fields without any omission-until Gao Wen's expression is strangely obvious He couldn't help but stop: "Your Majesty, is there anything wrong?"

"Um ... no, no problem," Gao Wen couldn't help rubbing his brows, feeling that this kind of "village in **** area shared **** technology with you" really made people feel an indescribable sense of violation, but just The existence of the Tudor Empire ’s heritage and the fact that modern technology and culture are completely dysfunctional make this situation take for granted. He ca n’t explain the slot inside to others, and he can only hold his stomach full of emotions in the bronchi. Progress ... not bad, very good. "

Then he looked up at Godwin, on the one hand, to transfer his embarrassment, and on the other hand, he sincerely sighed: "It is really difficult for you, a clerical staff to sort out technical things."

“Please do n’t say that—it ’s not all I ’m sorting out by myself,” Godwin said hurriedly, “'literacy preservation' is the most grand, greatest, and most exciting job I've ever seen in my life, countless People are working hard to protect those precious intellectual heritages to avoid their complete sinking and being lost in the dust of history. There are many departments involved in this work, both in the cultural field and the technical field. Professionals came to control, and I was lucky to be one of the leaders of the entire project just because I was good at collecting information and years of insignificant qualifications ... I only feel honored and thankful, and I will not complain at all. "

Gao Wen looked at the old gentleman's eyes and slowly smiled, nodding: "That's fine."

Then he lowered his head again, looking at the last part of the report.

After a few seconds, his brow suddenly frowned, and then slowly stretched out, a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

"Ancestor?" Hetty noticed the change in Govin's expression and couldn't help asking, "Is there any problem?"

"... Prince Savin of Luan City found an ancient book in the church's collection ..." Gao Wen said slowly. "It is highly suspected that the" Modier Travels "lost by the Wilde family in the north."

"Modier's Travels?" Hetty froze for a moment, and soon reacted. "It was the Grand Duke of the Wild family who was keen on traveling and exploring six hundred years ago? The one who cast the 'Cold Disaster' talisman ? "

"It's him," Gao Wen nodded and put his report on the table. "He left a travel note, but it was lost many years ago, and he is now found hiding in the cathedral of Luan. But this is not The key, the key is ... This travelogue may also be related to Amber. "

Hetty was taken aback. "Amber? How could a travel note left by the Duke of the Northern Territory six hundred years ago have something to do with her?"

Gao Wen did not immediately answer Herty's question, but first looked at Godwin: "Has that travel note been sent?"

"Yes, after the on-site emergency repairs, I sent them to the capital immediately," Godwin Orlando immediately replied. "Now the copy and archive are completed. Do you need its original?"

Gao Wen nodded: "Bring here, as soon as possible."

Then he looked at Hetty again: "What is Amber doing now?"

"It should be in the office on the 25th. Today she will host a meeting ..."

"Let her come to me directly after the meeting," Gao Wen Shen Sheng said, "Just say ... I have something to show her."

"Yes, ancestors."
