During the previous conflict in the River Valley, the 7th Mechanical Assault Battalion sent by the coastal warzone had made a name for themselves.
With just a single battalion, they repelled wave after wave of attacks from the Peacock Kingdom, losing more than 5,000 soldiers.
After that, the Peacock Kingdom had no choice but to lower their heads and negotiate peace, obediently retreating back into their borders.
The military also clearly recognized the power of this new exoskeleton armor.
Even though the current era emphasized the coordination of various weapons, it was difficult for a single weapon to change the outcome of the battle.
However, there was no doubt that an advanced weapon could give the enemy a greater advantage in the battle.
Exoskeleton armor was such a weapon, especially in combat environments such as mountains, jungles, and cities.
Moreover, in this war, the X-1 individual exoskeleton did not have any quality problems or defects.
This also proved that it was indeed a weapon that was approaching maturity.
As a result, the new year arrived, and the Military Ministry's Armament Department once again issued an order contract to Nine Provinces Weapons.
There were a total of 50,000 sets of AR-1 integrated combat systems, 150,000 AR-1 strategic rifles, and 20,000 sets of X-1 exoskeleton armor.
The SSR-1 integrated combat system included various equipment such as a ballista computer and thermal imaging, so the price was 35,000 yuan.
The price of the PR-1 strategic rifle was much cheaper, only 15,000 RMB.
Just this alone was an order of up to 4 billion RMB.
The value of the 20,000 X-1 individual kinetic skeletons was even higher, with a total order of 16 billion.
The total amount of these three orders alone was 20 billion. This was undoubtedly a super New Year gift for the nine provinces.
Now, the factory area of the Nine Provinces Weapon Company had expanded more than twice as much as before, and the number of workers had exceeded 5,000.
Now that another order had arrived, it seemed that he had to expand it again. However, Qin Yi did not need to worry too much about this.
"Yiren, use a portion of this money to build the main battle tank factory and production line. Leave the remaining 5 billion for me.”
Qin Yi used the five billion yuan as the start-up capital for the ice engraving machine project. At present, the MT-1 main battle tank project was progressing smoothly, and it was almost time to start this new project.
"President Qin, there's only a week left until the New Year. Where do you plan to spend the New Year?”She looked at Qin Yi expectantly.
"That's fast. Is it the new year already?" Qin Yi was stunned.”
He looked at her and saw the expression in her eyes. He smiled and said,"Where else can I spend the New Year? I probably spent it at the research institute. I'll give you a holiday tomorrow and go back to your hometown to spend the new year with your family.”
She shook her head, as if she had mustered up her courage, and said,""I'm not going home this year. I'll stay at the company to spend the new year with you.”
Qin Yi had always been more passive when it came to relationships, and he knew her feelings very well.
He was very rational when it came to the system's options, but he was not so decisive when it came to emotions.
After a moment of silence, he said,"Alright, let's celebrate the new year together."”
A smile bloomed on Yiren's face when she heard that. She said happily,""Yes, I'll make the arrangements. I guarantee that you'll have a happy new year.”
Watching her leave, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile. Then, he returned to the research institute and buried himself in the research project again.
A week later, Qin Yi, who was in the middle of his research, heaved a sigh of relief. He had finally completed this stage of his work and could rest well for a few days.
When he returned to the villa, he saw Yiren busy in the kitchen in an apron.
It was as if a wife was cooking and waiting for her husband to come back.
Qin Yi could not help but shake his head. How could he have such thoughts? Women would only affect his thinking speed.
When Yiren heard the sound of the door opening, she stopped cutting vegetables clumsily. When she turned around and saw Qin Yi, she smiled and said,""You're back."
"Why are you here so early?" Qin Yi nodded.”
"Now that everyone has gone back for the New Year, there's no takeout, so I'm the only one who's cooking. I've learned a lot of recipes these days, and my culinary skills have improved greatly.”
He remembered that this young lady had never cooked before.
Could it be that she went to learn cooking because she wanted to spend the New Year with him?
"Let me help you. When I was studying abroad, I wasn't used to western food, so I always cooked for myself.”
She looked at him with her bright eyes and said happily,""Sure, let's cook together."
