Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 435 - 269: Zhuge Zhongguang’s Opportunity to Break through the Heavenly Human Realm_1

After arriving at the military workshop, Lu Chen called the two Mohist brothers together and showed them the blueprints for the steam engine and the train, explaining the working principles of these two inventions.

Upon hearing Lu Chen's explanation, the two brothers felt as if the doors to a new world had suddenly opened before them.

As craftsmen, once Lu Chen had explained, they immediately realized the impact that the steam engine and the train would bring to the world, especially the steam engine.

At this point, Lu Chen said, "Mo Fei, you will need to remain in the military workshop to continue with the firearms research and development. Therefore, the task of manufacturing the steam engine and the train will be entrusted to your brother."

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, the excited Mo Xing said, "Thank you for your trust, Prince!"

Mo Xing was very interested in the steam engine and the train. He was eager to see the changes these two inventions would bring to the world.

Moreover, Mo Xing firmly believed that these two inventions could definitely promote the development of the era. With the task of manufacturing the steam engine and the train assigned to him, he, the man who made them, could also leave his mark on history.

Lu Chen then continued, "By the way, let's manufacture the steam engine and the train in Great Yu City. The craftsmen in Yan County are not quite sufficient."

Although a number of refugees had come to the North Country and the population had significantly increased, skilled craftsmen were still very scarce. NovelFire-hosted

It might work to have most refugees till the fields, but involving them in industrial production would require lengthy training.

However, Great Yu City was different, with almost every household being home to craftsmen. If the manufacturing of the steam engine and the train were to be placed in Great Yu City, recruiting craftsmen would be much easier.

Additionally, Lu Chen's main purpose for manufacturing the steam engine and the train in Great Yu City was to build a railway directly connecting Great Yu City with Yan County once the train was completed.

Great Yu City had a population of several hundred thousand, and these people were crucial for Lu Chen's industrial development plans, so he did not intend to keep them in Great Yu City indefinitely.

Once the railway connecting Great Yu City was in place, it would be much easier for the city's residents to travel to Yan County and to return to Great Yu City. Thus, the residents of Great Yu City would no longer have to stay there just because they were worried about being too far from home.

Mo Xing instantly grasped Lu Chen's intentions and immediately responded, "Very well, Prince. I will pack up my things as soon as possible and head back to Great Yu City."

Lu Chen said, "There's no need to rush. I plan to inspect Great Yu City in a few days, and you can return with my entourage then."

The people of Great Yu City were also his subjects, after all, and even though the system had established the ownership of Great Yu City quite some time ago, Lu Chen had not yet visited it, feeling that he had somewhat neglected Great Yu City's existence.

As there wasn't much happening in the North Country now, and the government in Yan County would function without him, the bureaucratic system he had set up was starting to take hold. His absence from Yan County for a while would not cause any issues.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, an excited Mo Xing said, "The citizens of Great Yu City will be very happy to hear that you are going to visit." freewebnσvel.cѳm

Lu Chen was seen as the Son of Destiny, the Human Emperor they in Great Yu City had been waiting many years for. If Lu Chen were to visit in person, the city's residents would surely be overjoyed.

After hearing Mo Xing's words, Lu Chen smiled and then said, "Let's leave it at that for today. I have other matters to attend to, so I will be returning now. As for the work at the military workshop, you should also make time to hand it over to someone else, then pack your things. I will send someone to pick you up in a couple of days."

"Yes, Prince."

Lu Chen did not linger long at the military workshop; he soon left and returned to the North Prince Mansion to summon Zhuge Zhongguang to the study.

He was going to be bound for Great Yu City for a while, and there were things that he needed to discuss with Zhuge Zhongguang.

After delegating the upcoming tasks for the North Country, Lu Chen thought of the recent actions of the Sum Emperor and said to Zhuge Zhongguang, "Great Scholar, I've recently received news that my father is joining forces with some Grandmasters to move against you."

Hearing this, Zhuge Zhongguang smiled faintly, stroked his graying beard, and replied, "I had long anticipated this day would come."

"The last time a Celestial realm powerhouse appeared in this world, many Grandmasters died. Now, as I am on the verge of breaking through to the Heavenly Human Realm, it's natural that some will be concerned the same events could occur again."

Seeing that Zhuge Zhongguang was not worried at all, Lu Chen directly asked, "I want to know how much longer it will take for the Great Scholar to break through to the Heavenly Human Realm?"

"The disturbance in the South is nearing its end, and next, my father will in all likelihood move against the North Country. He probably has already swayed quite a few Grandmasters. If you cannot break through soon, there could be a great calamity ahead."

Lingering on Lu Chen's words, Zhuge Zhongguang answered, "Breaking through to become a Grandmaster is not easy. Although I can clearly feel that I am on the cusp of a breakthrough and have even touched the threshold of the Heavenly Human Realm, I still feel as if I am missing something."

"The Heavenly Human Realm transcends the scope of Martial Arts. Simply raising one's strength is not enough to break through to the Heavenly Human Realm. There must be a special rule in this world. Only by passing this rule, or rather, by gaining the approval of this world, can a Grandmaster break through to the Heavenly Human Realm."
