Jiang Chen has no good idea for quantum computers yet, so he can only try his best to collect them.

Before leaving, he briefly explained to Xu Lu.

For example, focus on the research and development of military technology.

For example, focus on technology recycling on artificial islands, space elevators, synchronous orbital space stations and other technologies.

After explaining this, Jiang Chen took a helicopter to the sixth block.

After a voyage of more than ten minutes, Yunzhi-51 soon drove over the sixth block.

Looking down from the sky, this sixth block is indeed different from before.

After Chu Nan served as acting marshal, he strictly restricted the military discipline of the garrison, and at the same time continued the free trade bill in the era of the 10-member committee of the Sixth District. Even though he was in the position of the dictatorship of the military government, he never exercised illegal powers.

Even compared to the then-committee era, the military government he dominated was more just than before.

The benefits of doing so are also very obvious.

Not only the survivors of Shanghai, but even the survivors of nearby cities are migrating towards the Sixth Block.While they brought the labor force, they also brought the technology that the Sixth Block lacked.

The inner circle of tall buildings rose from the ground, and the outer circle of buildings also became much more prosperous.

Jiang Chen noticed from the air that the sewer entrance, which was originally outside the Sixth Block, was also included in the newly built fence in the outer circle.

In addition, small camps like manors surround the Sixth Block with stars arching the moon, scattered on the ruins.

These camps were usually built by merchants who were stationed in the Sixth Block, because land prices in the outer circle of the Sixth Block increased, so they built factories or residents outside the walls.

They pay taxes to the junta in the Sixth Block, enforce the laws of the 6th Block, and receive asylum from the junta patrol forces.

This small town is like a seed, sown on this barren soil, raising the Cute buds known as civilization...

Navigators on the ground waved signal rods to guide the helicopter to land.

On the apron, Jiang Chen jumped out of the cabin and saw Chu Nan who was already waiting at the door.

As soon as this Yunzhi-51 appeared on the radar, Chu Nan received the news and rushed over.

Long time no see... Speaking of which, how long has it been?Looking at this old friend, Jiang Chen greeted.

It's been half a year.Want to sit at my house?Chu Nan said with a smile.

Speaking of which, this guy changes the most.

Jiang Chen remembered that when he was rescued from the basement, the boy's face was still as immature as a virgin, but now what Jiang Chen saw on his face was only a little steady and restrained.

Of course, if it is convenient.Jiang Chen happily accepted his invitation.

A simple car stopped in front of the two of them, the driver got out of the car and saluted, respectfully opening the door for the two of them.

It took about 10 minutes to drive and the car drove to the entrance of the Parliament Building.On the top floor of this Parliament Building is the military government's office, and two of the rooms are Chu Nan's home.

Chu Nan enthusiastically invited Jiang Chen into the room, and the two sat together on the sofa in the living room.

Zhou Xiaoxia, wearing a casual home suit, walked over and poured tea for the two of them.

Judging from the complexion, the former lone guest's mental state has recovered a lot.

Although I don’t know if I have recovered my previous memory, I at least I have not lived in the shadow of the Gray Gu Mercenary Group.

Chu Nan did not mind her past, but accepted her.

In this regard, Jiang Chen still admires this man very much.

He heard that the two had a simple wedding later, but he was in the world at that time, so he was very sorry to fail to attend.

While drinking tea, the two talked about the development of the Sixth Block.

Affected by factors such as economic growth, the total population of the Sixth Block in the last quarter rose from 53,021 to 82,102.The number of factories increased from 37 to 239, and the number of registered merchants increased from 301 to 2,000.There were 20 new mercenary groups registered, 105 hunting groups and 421 scavengers.

It's simply explosive growth.Jiang Chen couldn't help but exclaim.

Chu Nan nodded. Economic growth was mainly due to the expedition last fall, and population growth was due to economic growth and stability.

And you have a good way to govern the country.Jiang Chen teased.

Where is it that you are promoting well.Chu Nan said modestly.

Haha, don’t play this with me, it’s yours that you have.Jiang Chen cursed with a smile.

Chu Nan did not respond, but he was still very proud of the smile on his face.

Clearing his throat, Chu Nan continued: Good news is bad news.

oh?Any bad news?Jiang Chen asked with a smile.

Survivors who fled to the Sixth Block in Jia City brought news from the west.This spring, the Mutants attacked the Alliance of Rebels from Land 7 and occupied Jia City with the support of the Twilight Church.Affected by this, the caravans from Hangzhou to Shanghai have dropped sharply by 60% since April, and the access to Shanghai from the southwest has been basically blocked.

After listening to Chu Nan's report, Jiang Chen frowned faintly.

Jia City is located between Shanghai and Hangzhou. If the mutants occupy this place, the merchants who travel between Shanghai and Hangzhou will inevitably be affected.

Compared to unorganized gangsters, organized mutants are obviously more terrifying.

What is your opinion?

Organize the second expedition to liberate Jia City.Chu Nan asserted.

A rather radical proposal.

The second expedition?Is there anything to grab for mutants?Jiang Chen looked at him unexpectedly.

Do you remember their equipment?Chu Nan looked at Jiang Chen with a smile.

equipment?

In addition to a heavy machine gun, there is also a draped on his body...

C-shaped steel!

Jiang Chen suddenly reacted.

The mutant's steel reserves are very rich, even so rich that it can be made into a steel armor hanging on its body to act as a mobile cover.The last expedition to the source of mutant bacteria brought subcrystals here and ignited the industrial fire in the Sixth Block.And this expedition will bring steel that completely ignites this industrial fire!

I have to say that this proposal is very attractive.

Although Jiang Chen can solve the problem of iron ore, smelting C-shaped steel requires more than just iron, but also a lot of rare earth elements.

Mutants' C-shaped steel is ready-made, so it is of course good to use it.

When are you ready to act?Jiang Chen asked in a deep voice.

March in autumn and withdraw in winter.Chu Nan replied quickly.

This guy has obviously been planning for a long time and has even thought about the combat strategy.

Starting in autumn and withdrawing in winter, this will not only leave enough preparation time, but also end the battle before the winter when mutants have the upper hand, and even clear the obstacles on the trade road before the beginning of next spring.

Even if economic factors aside, this mutant is indeed a big problem.Even if we don’t send troops in autumn, they may not be able to fight in winter.

But it is almost June now, is it still time to prepare for the expedition?

Jiang Chen touched his chin and weighed it in his heart.
