" Zhongzhou Heavy Industries " was a typical military enterprise. It could produce all kinds of heavy equipment, including artillery and armored vehicles. It was currently the main weapon and equipment supplier for the federal army. This tycoon of the firearms industry had only risen to prominence for a little over 30 years. It was naturally extremely eye-catching when almost all the enterprises in the Federation were in decline.
How could those greedy eunuchs and local aristocratic families let go of such a fat piece of meat? In the early years, they had investigated, pressured, and infiltrated through various means. However, when the investigation revealed that this company was jointly controlled by the Cao family of Liaodong and the Zhuge family of Nanyang, everyone could only give up. However, they would never have thought that the Cao and Zhuge families were just placed on the periphery to confuse them. The person behind the scenes was the current emperor, Liu Hong. Moreover, all the staff in the main departments of the group had military backgrounds!
Factory A was one of the five largest factories in the industrial base. Under the leadership of the factory manager, Liu Yu and the others strolled through the super factory. The floor was spotless, the environment was clean and bright, and the production line was highly automated. This was the complete opposite of the dirty, messy, and poor factory environment that people usually had. This factory made people feel like they were visiting a museum. The production line was not filled with deadly weapons, but pieces of art. Everyone remained silent and quietly admired the bright pearl in the factory!
The factory was too big. It was inconvenient to walk on foot, so the group sat in a few small electric cars and leisurely inspected every detail. Liu Yu looked at the workers in light blue overalls who were busy working on the production line in an orderly manner. She watched as they skillfully operated the equipment and assembled the various parts one by one. All the work processes were done in one go without any hesitation. Everyone quietly carried out their work, ignoring the visitors! Old Man Wei, who was sitting beside them, was very satisfied when he saw the pragmatic working atmosphere. He did not specially make those hypocritical and polite scenes to welcome them!
As the person in charge of the factory and one of the few factory managers who were lucky enough to know their true identities, he was now excited and uneasy. When he received the secret notice that the Crown Prince was going to inspect the factory he was in charge of, this old master who had dealt with machines all his life was stunned on the spot! Fortunately, the higher-ups had sent someone to help him. Otherwise, just the thought of traveling with the Crown Prince of the Federation would make him feel uneasy. He was afraid that he would make a fool of himself. After experiencing the initial nervousness, the factory manager began to adapt. When he brought everyone to face these advanced equipment, he could not help but proudly introduce them!
"Everyone, look! This is the latest digital production line that our group has started to use. The biggest feature of this technology was that it was centered on robots and was linked to information technology and network technology. It was a large-scale automated production line that connected all the equipment together. In layman's terms, this technology could increase production capacity, reduce manpower, and reduce production costs. Moreover, such automated products were easier to manage than humans. While effectively improving product quality, the use of automated equipment could also effectively improve product compatibility.”
When Liu Yu heard what the other party said, she was a little puzzled and said,"In that case, most of the work is done by machines. Wouldn't the workers be unemployed?”
The manager, who knew the identity of the child in front of him, naturally did not dare to be negligent. He explained,"Your Highness, we have already expected this situation. We will train and upgrade the original workers so that they can become high-skilled workers, because machines replace some of the most inefficient jobs. Moreover, the more automated the machine, the more it needed a professional team to carry out daily maintenance and repair! Therefore, the so-called machine stealing human work was purely nonsense.”
Everyone was suddenly enlightened. Liu Yu smiled and said,"So that's what happened! I am indeed ignorant." Seeing the dignified crown prince being so humble, even though the other party was only a child, this factory manager, who was over fifty years old, was extremely respectful! It made him feel more relaxed about the rest of the journey.
Everyone took the car to a production line. The manager pointed at the products on it and proudly introduced,"This factory is used for the production of main battle tanks. Currently, the production has passed the military inspection. It is the group's most proud product, codenamed '99A' main battle tank!”
When it came to weapons, Dawnstar, who had always been silent, immediately became excited. He was waiting for the semi-finished product on the production line. Although it had not yet taken shape, he could already vaguely see the domineering aura of the King of Land Battles. He asked anxiously,"Then how is this so-called '99A' tank stronger than the 'T-72' and 'Type 96' tanks in the military?”
There was actually someone who knew about it. Although he was still young, the military manager replied as if he had met a confidant,"This young friend, this tank is the product of our previous tank manufacturing technology and experience combined with the latest technology of the Federation! Its firepower, defense, and mobility had all received unprecedented improvements. I can guarantee without exaggeration that the two tanks you mentioned are not on the same level as the '99A'!”
At this moment, the car arrived at the end of the production line. A tank that had been assembled was slowly driving down the production line and heading towards the inspection platform. Looking at this steel monster with sharp edges and a thick cannon barrel, even those who didn't pay much attention to military weapons were excited. Liu Yu and Li Xingke wished they could climb into the tank and experience the pleasure of being an old driver!
The factory manager looked at everyone's performance and could not help but feel proud. "This is only the initial product. I'll bring you to the weapon testing ground to observe it later!"”
After visiting the A factory, everyone went to inspect other factories. No matter if it was the working environment, equipment, or the management of the workshop, no one could find any fault with these factories. During this time, they even went to the cannon production workshop to admire a solid steel column up close. After hundreds of processes, it gradually turned into a cannon barrel. Moreover, the entire process was completed under the control of a computer. There was no need for manual processing at all. Such an achievement made everyone gasp in admiration!
Soon, it was time for lunch. Everyone stopped their journey temporarily and was brought to a restaurant under the arrangement of the factory manager. It seemed that the supporting facilities of this industrial base were quite good. Along the way, Liu Yu saw many restaurants, supermarkets, and even cinemas and arcade! It was already lunch break, and workers from various workshops were coming in and out of these shops. For a moment, it was even more lively than Luoyang's commercial street. Zhuge Huairen quietly said to Liu Yu,""It seems that this place doesn't implement the policy of 'balancing the rich and the poor!'!”Liu Yu nodded and said," Of course. This was personally created by Father. How could there be such a ridiculous policy? Seeing these makes me feel much more at ease."”
When they walked into the restaurant, it was obvious that it was reserved. The owner of this restaurant had been waiting for a long time and personally led everyone to the best private room. However, at this moment, Mingyu, who had been silently following behind Liu Yu, suddenly instructed the restaurant owner,"Can you prepare another room?”Although the other party was a little surprised, he knew that the people in front of him were all nobles of extraordinary backgrounds, so he naturally had no objections. However, Liu Yu was a little reluctant. It was rare for everyone to come out, so of course, they had to eat together! However, Mingyu, who was usually gentle, had a serious expression on her face at this moment. She forcefully pulled Liu Yu to the next room, and Celine naturally followed in.
"Sister Mingyu, the food outside is actually quite delicious. It's okay to eat a little!”Liu Yu said pitifully.
Although Liu Yu's tone almost made Mingyu relent, the girl immediately said in an unquestionable tone when she thought of her responsibility,"No, for the sake of His Highness 'health, we must not be careless. Do you think that this servant's cooking is inferior to the chef of this restaurant?”
"How is that possible?" Liu Yu immediately shook her head. To me, Sister Mingyu's cooking is the most delicious in the world. However, they had clearly come out together, but they were eating separately. Wouldn't it be very rude?”
Mingyu took out the food box and said,"Please rest assured, Your Highness. This servant has already told Old Master Wei. He is also very supportive!"”
This left Liu Yu speechless, but he didn't expect Master Wei to support this. After Mingyu opened the food box, these doubts were thrown out of the nine clouds. The various exquisite delicacies in the food box immediately attracted Liu Yu's eyes. She did not care about anything else and tasted them at ease. As she ate, Liu Yu felt that something was wrong. It seemed too quiet. Shouldn't there be a worrisome woman beside him to ruin his plans?
The woman who worried Liu Yu was staring at the scenery outside the window in a daze. No one knew what she was thinking about. She didn't even react when Mingyu placed the food box in front of her. Liu Yu, who was a little surprised, waved her hand in front of Celine. At this moment, Celine finally reacted and looked at Liu Yu strangely."Brat, why are you loitering around in front of me if you're not eating your food?”Mingyu rolled her eyes at the side. She was already used to a certain someone's rude behavior from time to time.
Liu Yu also gave Celine a sanitary glare and said,"Look at how distracted you are. Don't tell me you're thinking about life!”
Celine looked at Liu Yu with a complicated expression. She looked out the window again and said,"This lady doesn't want to talk nonsense with you now, go eat your food.”
She was not used to the current Celine. Liu Yu said uneasily,"Since when did you take the cold and aloof route? That's not good! We already have Dawn on our side. Please go back to that shameless path! Really, I'm more used to you being shameless.”
Celine's face was livid. At this moment, she had the urge to spank someone again.
