Chapter 384: Nine Years in the Principality

The eighth year of the Principality has passed.

The cannons outside the Governor's Mansion roared, and the sky was full of salutes.

Civilians may just celebrate the annual festival at home.

But the upper class of the colony gathered at the Governor's Mansion.

Officials, nobles, outstanding merchants in the colony, and a small number of blacks and whites.

The banquet was mixed with a lot of interests, and finally a compromise was reached.

Governor Jeffreys's efforts were not in vain. It was too easy for him to contact the whites on the north coast.

The colonial fleet blocked the route near Gem Harbor, which was also a huge loss for the whites.

Now that someone has extended an olive branch, of course we must seize it firmly.

Moreover, national conflicts do not affect private cooperation.

For people like Sanger, cooperation with the enemy is not unacceptable.

So in this New Year, different forces gathered at the Colonial Governor's Mansion and reached a preliminary tacit understanding.

...

Far away in the homeland, the Northern Principality is also celebrating the New Year.

This year, the development of the Northern Principality is still rapid, and it has ushered in a wave of population explosion.

The looted materials and the explosion of productivity made the whole country flourish.

Derek's reputation was pushed to a peak again.

For the common people, Derek brought the gospel of God.

For the nobles, they gradually lost control of the army.

Thanks to the clear military system from the beginning, under the separation of power, even the generals could not control their troops.

Then the division step by step led to the new nobles seizing the power of the traditional nobles for Derek on the one hand, and it was difficult to pose a threat to the royal power.

Even if someone saw the Duke's idea, there was no room for resistance under the general trend.

Plan City has been expanded again and again, and even the train lines are surrounded by the city.

This year, the Duke's family spent the New Year in Plan City.

The government was shut down, and everyone was resting except for the necessary staff on duty.

A country in a rising period always has a lot of things to do.

However, as the head of a country, Derek can hardly be idle.

After the New Year, the Principality is nine years old.

The government has not yet opened for business, and Derek has to deal with some trivial matters after having dinner with his family in the morning.

The surveillance of the Eighth Investigation Department in China, and the activity signs of officials of all sizes during the New Year.

The intelligence investigation of the Ninth Investigation Department on foreign countries, various secret solicitations.

And the movements of the army, too many things need him to personally ask.

Fortunately, everything is stable, except for some minor problems that are recorded, Derek can breathe a sigh of relief.

"Father, father, I want to drive."

Qin saw Derek finish handling government affairs and rushed in with his younger brother.

The two little guys are at an annoying age, even the sons of the Duke are still naughty.

Derek usually disciplines strictly, but he also gives them some free space during the New Year.

So he picked up the second child in one hand and held the eldest child in the other hand, and the three of them walked out of the house.

"Go drive a car." Derek said to the attendant beside him.

Soon, a decent car was driven over.

This is a black car with a straight shape.

From Derek's point of view, it is definitely not beautiful.

But it already has most of the functions of a car.

It uses a diesel engine as the power source, the most primitive power system, the shell is machine stamped, and the hand-cranked glass is also very novel.

Under Derek's guidance, there are also many other gadgets.

Even the foul gadget of electric start is available.

With the two little guys climbing into the car, Derek started the car and played with the two little guys in the yard.

Perhaps men are very interested in everything that can be driven, and the two little guys had a lot of fun.

It was not until lunch time that Derek carried the two out of the car one by one.

With continuous improvements, the vehicle has stable functions.

Derek felt satisfied. I remember someone said that cars are the embodiment of a country's industrial level.

Under his own development, the Northern Principality has spanned two hundred years, and some fields have already had the shadow of modern times in the previous life.

The ability to build cars shows that the technical level of some industrial equipment has been met, and the industrial upgrade he has laid out in the past two years can be fully realized.

After the New Year holiday, Derek finally started a new round of research and visits.

Starting from Plan City, he gave a speech in Plan City at the beginning of the new year, encouraging students to learn advanced knowledge and serve the country.

Then he inspected some private factories. Steam machinery is still the mainstream, supporting the Northern Principality's suppression of the entire world.

Then there are industries such as military factories. These departments require stability, and Derek rarely makes drastic reforms.

No matter how much reform and upgrade, try to make a smooth transition, especially in these departments.

Finally, there are some state-owned factories.

A large number of steam machines have been dismantled, and a small number of new machines have been installed, and are undergoing preliminary upgrades.

"Duke, the use of these new machines is indeed more stable than steam engines, and electric energy is more efficient than steam power."

The engineer is very satisfied with the new machinery. Except for re-learning and redesign, the new machinery has no shortcomings.

The pain of reform and upgrading must be experienced.

Fortunately, the steam engine was put into use in a very perfect state at the beginning, and it has only been about ten years old. Most of the front-line engineers are very young.

Old ideas are not enough to prevent industrial upgrading, and most people are very efficient in learning new knowledge.

Moreover, basic knowledge is universal, and knowledge itself will not depreciate.

As Derek moved forward, the railway network was already very complete. Even though winter had just passed, trade had already recovered quickly.

In the ninth year of the Principality, this will be a brand new era.

Derek finally arrived at the Principality Fleet Station, and Adrian summoned all senior officers to attend the meeting.

Now that the third-generation warships have been launched one after another, the 7,000-class destroyer has been finalized and will soon be equipped with the naval fleet.

Compared with the single warship composition of the previous two generations, the navy of the new era will improve the level and function.

It happened that a large number of reserve officers took up their posts, and the navy had initially completed its construction.

Derek didn't say too much nonsense, he just spread out the map.

"The ninth year of the Principality will be the stage for the navy.

The Holy Cross Kingdom is finished, and the remnants of the Locke Kingdom are only lingering along the southern coast.

The aging fleet of the Griffin Kingdom is vulnerable.

In the new year, the Principality will complete the initial unification of the southern continent.

The final step of the empire will be led by you.

..."

The time is almost up, and the Northern Principality will soon complete the unification of the southern continent and complete the great cause.

For Derek, the eleventh year since he came to this world will write his own era in the history books.
